The girls soon finished up the meet and greet , and were swiftly taken to a

press conference. From the press conference they did a few more appearances ,

and then were taken directly to the arena.

It had completely slipped Stacy's mind to call Duane Lee back none the less text

him. She and Alexis were sitting down eating when Shane entered the area.

"Hey you two " he smiled "a few people just got here, they're waiting for you

in the parking lot."

Stacy immediately got up , Alexis following close behind.

" I have like such a weird feeling ! " Alexis said as they sped walked to the

parking lot.

" Really? , I never called Duane Lee. Maybe that's why?" Stacy asked. " I'm

sure that's all it is. Don't worry."

The girls reached the parking lot , and spotted the navy blue SUV. They looked

at each other and felt a rush of emotions come through them. Duane Lee exited

the SUV and began walking towards Stacy , with a huge smile on his face. Stacy

took off and ran towards him full speed. She jumped into his arms and wrapped

her legs around his waist.

" I've missed you !" She told him. Kissing him repeatedly.

"Babe.." He said attempting to pull her away from him for two seconds to focus.

It was already too late.

Out came Leland from the car , followed by Bonnie and Gary , his sister Lyssa ,

his father Dog , Beth and a brunette , that ran about the same body type and

height as Alexis. The brunette wrapped her arms around Leland and light and

romantically placed a kiss right on his lips.

Alexis stopped short in her tracks and B lined directly towards Bonnie and Gary

, hugging them tightly.

Stacy looked over at the same moment and looked at Duane Lee. " Who the fuck is

that?" she looked at Duane Lee.

" This is sort of why I wanted you to call ... babe" he whispered , very

hesitant on what he was about to tell her. " Apparently that is um Leland's

... girlfriend. "

" What!" Stacy voice boomed through out the parking causing everyone to stop

and look at the couple. Stacy grabbed Duane Lee's hand and began pulling him

back to her dressing room. " We'll be right back guys " she called as she

plastered on a fake smile and walked quickly away.

Alexis looked back and watched her friend hurry away , not exactly knowing what

was going on. If she went away too , she was certain everyone would know she was

uncomfortable , and that completely was not Alexis' style in the least.

" So how was the ride here guys?" She said , smiling through the anxiety she was

feeling inside.

" It was good , thanks again so much for having us" Dog said " it really is an

awesome treat"

Alexis smiled at them all , all except for Leland of course. She tried her

hardest to keep eye contact from either one of them. But it was inevitable.

" Hi , I'm Alexis by the way " she walked over to the brunette and Leland really

just starring at the girl , not at Leland.

" Alexis ... this is Nicole ... she's uhh , my girlfriend" he said with a faint

smile.

Alexis shook her hand and nodded " oh how nice.. " she caught his eyes , and

shot him a look.

" Alright guys , I'm going to get my hair and make up done. Harold is going to

give you guys the grand tour meet different wrestlers. Have fun I'll see you

guys in a little bit" she waved and quickly ran off.
