I've just finished feeding Destiny when there's a knock on the locker room door. I get up carefully and open it. It's Michelle. "Hey" she says smiling as she walks in. "Hope you don't mind, I've come to visit. Oh, and hide out from Hunter. He's still going mad over the whole Dean thing." I smile. "You can stay" I say sitting back down. "But Destiny and I have one rule. Dean is a swear word in here. No more mentioning it." "So from now on, he shall be called voldemort" she grins. "He who must not be named." I laugh. "Yeah, pretty much" I say, sitting Destiny up to burp her. Michelle sits next to me and we watch Randy's match against Dolph together. I smile when he wins. Michelle watches me closely. "Go on" she says taking Destiny from me. "Go meet him at gorilla, walk back with him." I frown, knowing she's planning something. "Go, Torrie" she says as Randy poses before leaving the ring. I groan and run out the door and up to gorilla.
"Hey!" he says walking through the curtain and hugging me. "Didn't expect to see you here. Where's Dessie?" "With Michelle" I say holding him close. "I didn't get to thank you for earlier, you know, for not giving Dessie to him." "I made you a promise" he says looking at me. "I don't break promises Torrie." I smile and hold his hand as we walk back to the locker room. Michelle has Destiny on her lap and is talking to her when we walk in. "She's so sweet" she says looking up at us. Randy smiles and nods. "Follows her momma" he says looking at me. I smile. "Get in the shower ass hat" I say, slapping him playfully. He squeals and runs into the bathroom as Michelle and I laugh. I change Destiny and put her down to sleep as Randy comes out of the bathroom freshly showered. Michelle looks at the time and then looks at me. "Five minutes" she says quietly. I groan but nod. "I'll head to catering first" I say standing up. "Need water. You ok here with Dessie?" Randy smiles. "Of course we're ok" he says kissing my head and hugging me. "I'll be here when you get back, ok? Don't let him get to you. Go out there, do your job, and then we can go home. Remember, it's just acting. It's his match, so he has to concentrate. Stand with Roman." I nod and smile before walking out and heading to catering.
As soon as I get there Sheamus grabs me. "Why didn't you tell us lass?" he asks quietly. "Ya know, we all felt sorry for him, coming home from work to find his mrs had done a runner with the baby. Fuck Torrie, you should have said!" "Couldn't ruin the surprise Stephen" I say kissing his cheek. "But thank you for the support." "You got the support of the whole roster" he says. "Anything you need, you ask anyone here, and you'll get it." I smile and grab a bottle of water, draining half of it straight away. "I'd better go play nice for the cameras" I groan. "I'll see you later. And thanks again." Sheamus nods and I walk off to where the guys are already waiting.
Dean walks straight up to me but I brush him off and head straight for Roman and Seth. "Hey" Roman says hugging me. "Stick with me, ok?" I nod, not wanting to go near Dean anyway. Seth wraps his arms around me and I hear Dean's roar of frustration from behind us. "You did this to yourself man" Seth says quietly. Their music hits and Roman heads out first. "You next" Seth says breaking up the order. I nod and kiss him before heading through the door. Seth is next through and I breath a sigh of relief knowing Dean isn't behind me. Roman and Seth help me over the barrier and we get straight in the ring. As soon as all of us are stood in the centre of the ring the Uso's music hits and they make their entrance. I always love watching them. "You ok?" Roman asks quietly as Justin announces everyone. "Fine" I say smiling. "I'm ok out here, cos I know he's out here too and nowhere near my baby." Roman nods. "Tread carefully with this, Torrie" he warns. "There's more to this than you think." I frown but before I can say anything Charles gets us out of the ring.
The match is good. Real good. I get the impression that Dean is taking all his frustration out on the poor Uso's and I feel real guilty for it. Tonight it's Roman's turn to interfere, but he doesn't. He grins at me. "The twins and I came to a little understanding earlier" he says. "We're gonna get you some more heat baby girl." I frown. "Just go with it" he says. I nod and watch as Jey is sent flying out of the ring by Seth. The ref holds Seth back so he can't follow and Jimmy quickly gets down off the apron, lying next to Jey. As the ref looks over the ropes to start the 10 count, Jimmy gets up slowly and slides into the ring. "That's the..." I start and Roman grins. Jimmy quickly pins Seth and the twins pick up the win. I jump on the apron straight away and call Charles over. "They switched places!" I say. Charles looks down and sees Jey still on the floor, then looks up at the tron as the replay is being shown. He calls Justin over and Justin nods. "The winners of this match as the result of a disqualification" he says. "Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins!" The crowd go wild and I smirk. Seth grins at me and I get in the ring and hold his hand up. Roman quickly holds Dean's up as he looks at me. I slide under the bottom rope and head up the ramp, smirking as I walk.
Dean catches up to me just as I get through the curtain. "Talk to me" he begs. I look at him. "What time are you leaving for the Smackdown taping tomorrow?" I ask. "About eleven" he says frowning. I nod. "I'm not scheduled for it" I say. "I'll be round in the morning for the rest of our stuff." "What?" Dean splutters. "Mine and Dessie's stuff" I say as Seth and Roman catch up to us. "I'll pick it up in the morning. Gotta go house hunting." "Tor" Dean groans. "Please. Take the house. You and Dessie need it more than I do." "I think you're misunderstanding the point" I say. "I want absolutely nothing from you. I want nothing to do with you. Shove your house up your ass for all I care. I've got a perfectly good house in Wales, I could go back anytime I want. You'd do well to remember that. Now get out of my way." Shocked, he moves, and I run back to Randy and Destiny.
"You ok?" Randy asks as I get through the door. I nod and quickly start packing everything up. "I need to go" I say. "I need to get away from him." "Woah Torrie" Randy says. "It's ok, come on, I'll drive you back." I nod and let him grab the bags while I grab Destiny. We check we've got everything and head to the car. I finally breathe easier when we're away from the arena. Randy puts his hand on my knee, and it stays there until we get to the apartment.
