Here I am walking through the airport in New York trying to find this Shane guy when I saw someone else and almost passed out. The man Mark Callaway was standing there with a sign with my name on it. I tried to calmed myself down as I made my way to him. When I stopped in front of him he looked down and a huge smiled graced his so kissable lips. Shit I so need to stop thinking about that. "Miss Wright?"
"The one and only." I said to him and he smiled.
"Mark Callaway." He said to me.
He offered me his hand and I slowly took it. Damn my heart just started pounding really fast just from shaking his hand. This so isn't good. "Do you have any bags you need to get?"
"Well, since Shane said that I would be here a few days I had to pack a few things." I said to him.
"Let's hope it fits onto a bike." He said to me.
"Let's just say I'm not most women and this bag in my hand is the only one I have." I said to him.
"Not like other women at all. Come with me and we will get you settled at the hotel before you are to have dinner with the McMahons." He said to me.
"Lead the way big man." I said to him with a wink.
"If I didn't know any better I would say that you are hitting on me." He said to me as we headed out of the airport.
"I don't hit on anyone. They all hit on me and get pissed when I turn them no. But just between us I wouldn't tell you no." I said with another wink.
"Yep, you are hitting on me." He said with a smile.
I just shook my head and laughed as we stepped outside. We walked over to his bike and I whistled. "Nice machine. Almost as nice as mine." I said to him.
He looked at me and raised an eyebrow. "I didn't know you could do the people's eyebrow so well."
This time he did laugh and shook his head. "I have a feeling that you are going to be a handful."
I looked down at my chest and snorted. "I more than handful even for you." I said as he got on his bike.
He almost fell off his bike at that comment and looked at me. "Sorry I'm a pervert when I'm nervous."
"Oh don't worry baby doll I like it." He said as he strapped my bag in front of him.
I got on the back behind him and wrapped my arms around his waist. "Don't feel me up I might like it."
I laughed gently and shook my head. "Ruined it for me Mark I was going to now I'll just behave."
"You are going to fit in just fine girl." He said to me and I beamed.
"That's good to know." I said before he started his bike and pulled off.
The ride there rocked because let's face it, it's not every day when I get to hold onto one of my favorite wrestlers as he speeds down the road. So let's just say that I was in heaven without having to die to get there. But the ride ended way too soon for my liking. "Alright baby girl let's get you settled in and I'll call Shane."
When we got to my room I was very surprised to see a group of wrestlers there waiting for me. "Mark is it me or are they looking at me like I'm a piece of meat?" I asked in a whisper.
"Nope they are looking at you like a piece of meat. Get on boys she is tired!" He called out to them and they shook their heads no.
"Let me try this." I said to him and then looked at the others. "You have to the count of five to get the hell away from my room or there will be hell to pay and big man right here isn't the one that you will have to worry about."
Mark laughed as she held up her hand and started to count. They all started running when she got to three. "That is the damnest thing I have ever seen."
"It works every time too." I said to him as he unlocked my door and opened it.
"I believe it." He said as we walked in and I saw all kinds of bags and baskets in my room. "I think they gave me the wrong room Mark."
"No this is all from the guys." He said to me as he put my bag by the dresser. "Looks like I will be needing more suitcases." I said as I looked around at all the things that were on the tables and bed in my room.
"Looks like it." He said to me with a smile.
"Alright which one did you get me?" I asked him and he walked over to the bed and picked up a box.
I took it from him and opened it to find a hat like his and shirts and other things in there. "Thank you Mark this is great. "
"Does that mean that I can get a kiss for it?" He asked me.
"Only if you lean down." I said to him and he did.
I kiss his cheek softly and moved back but he moved his head and kissed me on the lips. "Now that is what you call a kiss."
"That was a stolen kiss." I told him and he smiled.
"I'll take what I can get thank you very much." He said before he walked to the door. "Rest up Shane will be here in a few hours to pick you up."
I nodded and he walked out of the room. "Now where the hell am I going to put all of this?"
Yeah right like I can really get some rest when I know that in two hours Shane will be here to take me out to dinner. Let's just say that I spent two seconds getting dress and 119 minutes and 58 seconds trying to make myself beautiful. Hard to do when I couldn't stop blushing at the thoughts of all the wrestlers around my door earlier. It has been way too long for me. Damn it how do I get myself into these situations? I don't know.
I touched up my lips as there was a knock on my door. "Coming." I shouted as I check myself one more time and smiled. Not bad for someone that doesn't wear makeup.
I walked over to the door and opened it as I grabbed my purse. "Miss Wright you look amazing."
"Why am I not shocked that you are here Mark?" I asked him as I looked up at him.
"Well, I kinda of told him that you asked me to be the one to bring you to dinner with them." He said sheepishly.
"I won't tell them that I didn't. You are one of my favorite wrestlers." I said as I took his arm and walked out of the room and closing my door.
"Is your real name Hope?" He asked me.
"Is your real name Undertaker?" I asked him.
"No." He said and I smiled.
"I'm Karma." I said to him.
"Really?" He asked surprised.
"Yeah." I said as we went to go to the elevator.
"I have never met anyone named Karma before." He said to me as we walked out of my room.
Suddenly there were a bunch of whistles and cat calls and I looked down the hall to see a group of wrestlers standing there and looking at us. "Sometimes I wish I hadn't dumped my girl."
The look he gave me was priceless and I smiled. "Don't worry I swing both ways. Can't have too much experience if you ask me."
"Really what about cheating?" He asked me.
"Never have and never will. Don't like the feeling of being cheated on so why would I want to cause someone else to feel like that?" I asked him as we walked closer to the other wrestlers.
The closer we got the more I saw and let me tell you they were so fucking fine. I wanted to be a fangirl but I'll behave myself. Maybe they will like it better if I didn't jump on them and grab their asses. I know I wouldn't like it. "So you are single?"
"Yeah." I said to him and he looked down at me.
"You don't like it?" He asked me.
"It's not that. I don't like the fact that people can't look at me and see me for me. They see the money and the fame when they find out who I am. They see everything but me. That is what I am tired of." I said to him right before we stopped in front of the wrestlers.
"Everyone this is Hope Wright. Hope this is Hunter, Shawn, Jeff, Matt, Mark Henry, Tommy Dreamer, Evan Bourne, John Cena, Randy Ortin, Glen Jacobs, Phil Brooks, Chris Jericho and Rey Mysterio." Mark said as they all looked me up and down.
"Eye to eye contact boys." I said to them and Mark laughed.
"Watch out boys this one is a hand full." Mark said to them and I rolled my eyes.
"I told you at the airport Mark that I'm more than a handful even for you. Now if you guys don't mind I have business dinner to get to." I said as I went to go through them.
"You don't want to do that you might come out on the other side naked." Mark said to me.
"Let them try and they'll all lose a hand." I said as I looked at them.
They all parted like the red sea and pressed the down button on the wall. "So is Hope your real name?"
I looked over to Jeff and smiled. "Nope."
The doors to the elevator opened and I walked in without saying anything else. Mark laughed because I had told him my real name but not Jeff. He walked on and I smiled up to him. "You're going to tell them when we get back from dinner aren't you?"
"Damn right." He said to me.
I just shook my head and laughed as the doors closed. "I believe they are sweet on you."
"I'm sweet on a few of them too. Tell me is Glen married?" I asked him with a wicked smile.
"No. Why?" He asked me and I just smiled.
"I'm really sweet on him just as much as I am on you." I said with a giggle.
"You didn't just giggle?" He asked me shocked.
"I don't giggle. So you are hearing things." I said to him as the elevator moved down.
When I got to the restaurant I was nervous. Plus it didn't help that Mark was making me blush the whole ride there. I didn't mind. It felt really good for someone like him to be hitting on me. But as we got out of the car the cameras started to snap and I covered my face and he helped block me. No one knew that I was in New York and I didn't want anyone to know. After all they could ruin Mark's marriage. Wait is he even married? I don't know but right now it isn't what I need to think about.
I was surprised when we were rushed back to an VIP area and no one seen me. That was nice. "Everyone this is Hope Wright."
Shane, Vince, Linda, Stephanie and the others around the table stood up and I smiled to them as we made our way to the table. Mark had my hand on his arm and the feel made me more comfortable around everyone else. I have met him already and we seem to be getting along so at the moment that was all that mattered to me. "Ah, Miss Wright, I'm glad that you decided to come."
"I wouldn't miss it for anything in the world." I said as Mark pulled out my chair for me.
"I must ask Miss Wright is that your real name?" Shane asked me and I smiled at him.
"No it isn't. I'm Karma Walker." I said to him and he smiled.
"So Karma is real." He said and I tried not to snap back at him.
"So it seems." I said as I sat down and Mark pushed in my chair.
"It seems that Mark has taken quite a liking to you." Vince said as they all sat down.
"I'm fond of him too." I said to him as I winked at Mark.
"See I told you they would get along." Shane said to him and I covered up my smile.
"Let me just say that I get along better with most men then I do women. I don't have many female friends. They all seem to think that I am a whore. I don't care because I know that I'm not but they can't handle the fact that most men seem to understand me better no let me reword that. I understand men better than women." I said to them and they nodded.
"So would you like to order before we talk about business?" Vince asked me.
"Yes I would." I said to him with a smile.
"So where do you live?" Shane asked me.
"I live in Florida." I said to him.
"I bet you have a nice huge house don't you?" He asked me.
"Why would I? It's only me that lives there." I said to him.
They all looked at me surprised. "I was raised to use what you got and be happy with it. Don't buy more then you need and make sure your zipper isn't down."
At the last one everyone laughed and I smiled. I didn't want the insult to sting too much because I know that was how they were going to take it. The waiter came over and everyone waited for me to order. "I would like a steak medium well with a side salad no dressing also I would like a bake potato loaded. To drink I would like a soda Sprite and a glass of water please."
"No wine?" the waiter asked me surprised.
"I don't drink." I said to him.
He nodded and went around the table to take everyone's order. I could feel Mark's eyes on me and I turned to look at him. "You don't drink?"
"No I don't." I said to him and he smiled.
"That is surprising." He said to me.
"Not if you were born into my family." I said to him before I looked down at my hands.
"It's ok." He said to me.
"I know I just don't tell strangers so much about me until I get to know them a little more." I said to him.
"Like I said it is ok." He said to me.
Everyone turned their attention to me again after they ordered and I was surprised when it was Stephanie that spoke next. "Storm Chase the girl in your first book who was she based after?"
I smiled at her and said. "She was based after my mom. She was a fighter and had a mouth like you'll never see on another woman. She even put some sailors to shame one time. She was my hero."
"That was so sweet of you to do." Linda said to me.
"It was sad that she didn't live long enough to get the honor." I said to her and she smiled a sad smile.
"I'm sorry to hear that." Linda said to her.
"It's ok she lived a good life even if it was a short life." I said to her.
Everyone stayed quiet for almost ten minutes before Vince looked at me and smiled. "So I was wondering if you would like to use our wrestlers and Divas in your movies."
"Actually that would be great. I do have some characters based off some of their attitudes. Like Angel Cross is actually based off Stephanie." I said and she smiled.
"I knew I like her for a reason." She said to me.
"Viper is based off Rey." I said to them.
"Steele and Sean are based off of John Morrison and The Miz." I said and Vince looked impressed.
"Thunder and Thor is based off of Jeff and Matt Hardy." I said before I turned to Vince.
"Harris is based off you." I told him and Shane held out his hand.
Vince pulled out two bills and put them in it. "He bet me that he was based off me. I didn't think so but he is a good character."
"The two tall bad guys Sage and Otto are based off Mark and Glen." I said to them.
"Are there anymore?" Vince asked me.
"In the book coming out Punk has a character based off him and Evan has a character based off him. Mark Henry does too. Oh and HHH and HBK does too. Many more too I just can't remember them all yet. Oh and here." I said as I took out five books from my purse. "The new book coming out in four months."
"Do you only have five?" Vince asked him.
"The others will be here tomorrow." I said to him.
"Great." He said as they passed out the books. I handed to last one to Mark.
"Well, the reason we called is because we did a poll on our website asking our fans who they would like to see tour with us for a year. Your name was the one that had the highest vote. I know that we should have asked you before we did the poll but we honestly didn't realize how many of our fans were your fans. We are willing to pay you whatever your agent thinks you deserve for this. And I know that we all would love to have you with us. Believe me the wrestlers are so hoping that you say yes." Shane said to me.
"I seen the poll even voted myself after all I am a fan." I said to him.
"Did you vote for yourself?" Mark asked me.
"Actually no I didn't I voted for Vin Diesel now that would be a dream come true let me tell you. Seeing all the men that make me hot on the same show would just drive me wild." I said before I lowered my head when I realized what I had said to them.
"See I told you that she would fit in just fine." Mark said with a laugh as I peeked out at him through my hair.
"Correction you said I would be a handful. And I corrected you on that now didn't I?" I asked him as I moved my hair out of my face.
"That is true I remember just what you said. Shall I repeat it for them?" He asked as he looked down at me.
"Only if you want to get your foot broke." I told him with a sweet smile on my face.
"Oh yes you can see the sparks just flying between those two. But I want to see how she reacts to the others one on one." Vince said to his son and I looked at him.
"What do you mean by that?" I asked him.
"I have a list of guys I want you to spend a week each with if you agree to this. You can look over it if you want to." He said as he handed it to me.
I took the page and looked at the list of names on it. Glen Jacobs, Jeff and Matt Hardy, Shannon Moore, Shawn Michaels, Mark Callaway, Phil Brooks, Hunter John Cena, Kofi Kingston and Rey Mysterio were the names on the list. I read over them a few times and then looked p at Vince. "That is a lot of men if you ask me."
"We want to make sure that we put you with the right guy and to do that it is a test run if you know what I mean." Vince said to me.
"Actually I do but I would like to get to know the heels too. Not just the baby faces. After all every good girl has the potential to be a very bad girl." I said to him and he smiled.
"A team player. I like that." He said to me and I Laughed.
"So is that a yes?" Vince asked me.
"I will let you know tomorrow. I really want to think on this and make sure that I don't have a tour lined up in the near future. I like the idea and being here will be good for my writing. I watch old matches and stuff when I have writer's block to get inspired." I said to him.
"If you agree how long will it take for you to be back?" Vince asked me.
"Four hours." I said to him.
"Really?" He asked her.
"Really already packed my things. Just got to go and get them and get back." I said to him.
"Come just say yes because we all know that we make you hot and that is fine because you cause a fire in the pants too." Mark said to her and she rolled her eyes.
"You Mr. Callaway are an asshole and I like that. So yes I will and I would like it if Mark flies back with me so he can help me with a few things before I come back. Oh and is it alright if I bring someone with me. She is my assistant and a life saver. You won't even know that she is here unless someone pisses her off." Karma said to them.
"No that is fine as long as she doesn't get in your way she is more then welcome to come with you." Vince said with a huge smile. "Oh and Mark cane go with you. He isn't needed tonight."
"That is good but we are leaving in the morning because I am tired and I'm not very nice without sleep. Even if it is only an hour or two. Now that we have talked about business why don't you guys tell me what you like most about my books. It rare for me to find fans that aren't screaming my names. Even my family has a hard time with talking to me anymore because I'm now "famous" and that is beginning to piss me off." She said to them.
"I can understand how you feel. But honestly I love the way you write about the action in the books. I have never read a female author's book where they pay attention to the blood, guts and gore like you do. It's like I'm in my own little movie and I can picture every detail perfectly." Shane said to her.
"Thank you Shane that is very nice to hear. I thought it would be refreshing for a woman author to have more male fans the female fans. After all we all know that I don't think like most women. I blame it on the guys that I grew up with. I love my action just as much as I love my love stories. But horror is my favorite of all. Anything else you like?" She asked him.
"I really like how you are bringing the characters together and making them apart of the team. But most of all I like Spike. He trusts no one but one person and she is always there when he needs her. It's like they have some connection that they don't know about." Vince said to her.
"Man you just so ruined it. You'll understand what I mean when you read the fifth book. It tells you why they are the way they are and how they become that way. I thought it was about time that it came into light since there are only 7 more books left." She said to him and he smiled.
Everyone paused talking as the food arrived and was placed in front of them. After the waiters left they all started talking in between bites and swigs of their drinks. "Is there a reason why you don't drink?"
Karma looked over at Mark and smiled softly. "Just never tried it. I wasn't a rebel as a teenager. I was the one that stayed home and did her homework while everyone else went out and got drunk. Plus I lost a few friends from driving drunk and drunk drivers hitting them. I didn't want that to happen to me. So I didn't try it when it was time for me too." She said to him.
"Sorry to hear that. But at least you know what you want in life." He said to her.
"I only know what I want when it comes to my body and soul. I have no idea what I want out of life yet and I don't think that I should know that way I'll be surprised when I get it." She said to him.
Vince and Shane looked at each other before they looked back at the two. They could see the sparks fly between them but they knew that they had to try the others too because she might be able to have sparks with more than one person and if that is what happens they were going to have one hell of a story line and they both knew it.
"Don't even think about it. I know those looks and I don't like what comes of those looks." Linda said to them and Stephanie laughed.
"It's not funny that would bring in a lot of money and more people would by tickets just to see what they would do to impress her this time." Vince said and Karma laughed.
"I think that it's a good idea. Have them play a game or in this world wrestle and whoever wins gets the spend the next week with me. Then have it where I like more than one person and have them try to impress me until I am pushed to choose. Oh I like this. I haven't had this fun since I was a teenager coming up with fake story lines for my wrestlers! She said clapping her hands together.
"That is actually a damn good idea. We will talk more on that when you get back if that is ok with you."
