Monday 30th April

The show that night went by in a flash.

Jon had won his dark match against Kevin Kiley Jr. and Alexa had successfully defended her Diva's Championship against both Nikki and Brie. WWE had later announced on their website that the Bella twins had been fired by Executive Administrator Eve Torres. Obviously, this wasn't the case. In reality, their contracts had just expired and they had decided against signing new ones.

Neither of them were booked at the Smackdown taping the following day, meaning they were free to let loose a little tonight.

''What time is he coming?'' Alexa called from the bathroom, applying a final coat of dusky red lipstick.

''Any minute now.'' Jon replied from the bed, where he was leaning against the headboard, flipping through a magazine as he waited. ''So you better move that sweet little ass of yours.''

''I'm done.'' She announced, walking back into the bedroom.

''Where's the rest of the dress?'' Jon asked, his gaze trailing down to her legs.

''Funny.'' She rolled her eyes.

She had changed into a black dress that stopped a few inches above her knees. There was silver surrounding the modest neckline, looking looked almost like a necklace and she had a matching silver cuff on her right wrist. Her dark waves had been lifted away from her face and twisted into a high bun. As she moved over to her case to shove her small make-up bag back inside, he was treated a look at the back of the dress or rather the lack thereof; every inch of her smooth, tanned back was revealed.

''You look-''

He was cut off by a sharp knock at their door and he watched with a chuckle as she darted across the room to swing the door open. She was met by the form Sami Johnston, otherwise known as Sami Callihan. ''Hi.'' She greeted shyly.

His tied-back hair was covered with a cap and he was dressed casually in jeans and a t-shirt. A warm smile appeared on his face as he looked her up and down, raising his eyebrows. ''Shit, Jon, you've changed a lot since I last saw you! You've got a million times more sexy... and Mexican!''

Alexa snorted, hearing the man inside the room let out his own bark of laughter. ''I'm Lex, it's nice to meet you.''

His smile widened and he took her offered hand. ''Sami, feelings mutual.''

''Hey, no flirting with my girl.'' Jon's low voice sounded behind her and she stepped aside to let the men have their reunion. ''Great to see you, man.''

The pair shared a brief hug before separating, both men's eyes dropping down to her as Sami asked in amusement. ''We ready to roll?''

''So, what's the deal with you and Jon?''

Alexa glanced across the table at Sami, finding the playfulness that had lingered in his eyes all evening gone; replaced by curiosity and a hint of suspicion. ''Jesus, you don't waste your time, do you?''

He shrugged, leaning back in his chair as he took a swig of his drink. ''Just looking out for my boy.''

''I'm not going to screw him over, if that's what you want to know.'' She told him honestly. ''I like him... I like him a lot.''

''He feels the same.''

''Yeah?''

''Trust me, I've known him for years and I've never known him to be this hung-up on someone.''

She offered him a faint smile, he eyes wandering over to where Jon was standing at the bar before returning to Sami. ''I'm just enjoying it while it lasts.''

His brows furrowed in confusion. ''What do you mean?''

''Well, nothing last forever, does it?''

''Some things do.''

Alexa snorted, shaking her head slightly. ''I think all good things eventually come to an end, even if you don't want them to.''

''Pessimist.''

''Like Leonard Cohen said, 'I don't consider myself a pessimist. I think of a pessimist as someone who is waiting for it to rain. And I feel soaked to the skin'... speaking from personal experience, everything goes to shit.''

''It's almost like you want that to happen.''

''That's not it at all.'' She said vehemently. ''I just... I kind of expect it.''

They spotted Jon making his way back over to them and immediately dropped the subject. The pair grabbed their drinks as he set the tray down on the table; Jon seating himself beside his girlfriend as he took a sip of his beer.

''So, what have you two ladies been gossiping about?'' He teased.

Alexa turned to face him with an impish smile. ''Oh, I was just telling Sami about the awesome sex we had last night.''

Sami snorted his drink out of his nose at her comment, coughing for a few minutes before meeting Jon's eyes. ''She's pretty fucking cool, dude.'' He glanced across at Alexa, sending her a small smile. ''Don't let this one go.''

''Fingers are weird. Like our arms just split into other smaller arms.''

Jon laughed, he couldn't help but be amused by her drunken ramblings. ''You're weird.''

Alexa halted as they stepped inside their hotel room, bending down to sloppily yank off her shoes. ''Yeah, but that's why you like me.''

''That's true.''

She let out a high-pitched squeal as his arms suddenly wrapped around her and she found herself unceremoniously dropped on the bed. She laughed as she bounced a few times before her body stilled and she stared up at the ceiling.

The mattress dipped beside her and Jon dropped down to lay on his side; elbow propped up on the bed while his head rested on his hand. ''Tell me something... Remember ages ago, when Shaul said that you had a nickname for me?''

''You want to know what it was?'' She finished, looking up at him as he nodded. ''Any question you could ask, and you chose that?''

''It's been bugging me.''

''Dimples.''

''What?''

''Before I knew who you were, I used to call you dimples.'' She explained, giggling as she gently pinched his cheek. ''They're cute.''

Jon laughed, grabbing her hand and pressing a kiss to her palm. ''So, uh, I think Sami's your new biggest fan. He told me you two had a talk earlier.''

''What exactly did he say?''

''Just that it was obvious someone had really screwed with your head in the past and to make sure I treated you right.''

A smile curled at her lips. ''He's pretty cool.''
