"Are we bad for this?" Kelly asked quietly.
"Of course not. They had this coming." Eve assured her. "Just follow my lead when the time comes."
Kelly nodded somewhat uneasily.
She was a good girl. She always had been.
"Act cool." Eve whispered as they started walking back towards catering.
Alex smiled when he saw them.
"Hey, babe." He put his arm around Kelly's shoulders and kissed her forehead.
Kelly smiled up at him. "Hey."
"You girls ready for tonight?" He asked.
"Oh, definitely." Eve answered. "Beth and Natalya won't know what hit them."
"Good." Alex laughed.
Kelly smiled wearily.
One more hour…
…
Kelly stayed silent for most of the night, which was very unusual. It made everyone notice.
"You okay?" Alex questioned her quietly as he walked her and Eve to the curtain for their match.
"Yeah, just… nervous." She told him.
"Don't be. You got this."
"If you say so."
"You're better than them, just remember that. Now go make me proud and say it to their faces." Alex gave her a quick kiss before she walked out onto the stage with Eve.
The crowd erupted with cheers as they made their way to the ring.
As Eve's music stopped, Beth Phoenix and Natalya came out. Microphones in hand.
"What's that smell, Nattie?" Beth asked.
"I swear it wasn't me!" Natalya said quickly.
Beth stared at her, confused. "What? No. It smells like fear. And it seems to be coming from the ring!"
Natalya seemed embarrassed from her outburst, but tried to save herself. "The barbies must be scared of what we're going to do to them!"
"Of course they are." Beth replied smugly as she stepped into the ring.
She looked straight at Kelly.
"Ding."
…
As the bell rang, Eve took advantage of Beth's back being turned.
She landed her own variation of a Backstabber and Beth fell to the ground.
Natalya was angry, and tried to retaliate but Eve caught her arm and delivered a swift punch of her own.
She pushed Natalya out onto the floor, and quickly tagged in Kelly.
Kelly was wary when she entered the ring.
She stood in the corner and waited for Beth to stand up.
When she did, Kelly ran and kneed her in the face, setting up for her K2 finisher.
Kelly rolled Beth over while Eve jumped off the apron and attacked Natalya, keeping her busy while Kelly got the pin.
1, 2, 3.
…
Kelly was out of there as fast as possible.
She felt odd being in front of a camera when she knew no one knew what she was planning on doing. It was driving her crazy.
Eve approached her with a smile.
"Good job out there. Just a few more minutes."
Kelly stifled a laugh.
"Hey, Kel. You okay?" Alex asked.
"Yeah, kind of. Just nervous as hell."
"About what?"
Dammit.
"Uh, you know, just… rumor has it there are some talent guys evaluating the Divas this week."
"Oh, well trust me you have no worries there. You're great. And a huge draw. They wouldn't let you go." Alex assured her.
"Thanks." She replied quietly.
"No problem, babe. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a match." He kissed her head and began walking towards the curtain.
"You ready?" Eve asked her and started walking towards the Divas locker room.
"Ready as I'll ever be." She answered nervously as she followed her.
It was time for some revenge.
…
"Nice clothesline by A-Ry!" Jerry Lawler cheered.
"Can you believe that fool is dating Kelly Kelly? How in the hell did he get her?" Cole still didn't believe it.
"I don't know, but all I know is I'm jealous! He's got-"
"Whoa, whoa! We've got a situation in the back!" Cole yelled frantically.
The titantron switched from the match to a camera running through the back halls.
High pitched screams were all that could be made out.
As the cameras finally found them, everyone's jaws dropped.
Eve and Kelly were seen attacking one of the Bella Twins.
Eve smirked as she pulled the already finished off girl up by her hair and forcefully threw her into the wall next to them.
The twin fell to the ground with a loud thud.
She remained unmoving.
Kelly tried to hide her remorse while Eve laughed and smiled at their work.
As medical personnel made their way to the Bella, Kelly wanted desperately to check on her too.
"Come on." Eve whispered quietly, motioning for her to follow her.
She did, but kept her eyes locked on the unconscious twin until she couldn't make her out anymore.
…
"Kelly, are you okay? What happened?" Alex was so confused and worried.
"I'm fine. We just… Eve said we were getting revenge for what they did to you." She answered softly.
Alex let out a sigh. "You had me worried."
"Do you think she's okay?" Kelly asked him.
"Not dead. Not fully okay."
She felt sick.
"She'll be all right one day."
She didn't seem convinced, so Alex put an arm around her shoulder.
"I promise. She'll be back in a few weeks."
"Okay."
The uneasy feeling didn't go away, but she forced herself to focus on getting back to the hotel and getting lots of sleep.
After today, she definitely needed it.
