A/N: I only own the OC.
I am overwhelmed by the support for this story. I hope that you all enjoy it!
I was glad that I was riding up front with Luke because Finn and Karl were in the back being idiots. I loved my brothers, and I am glad that I was able to work with him, but sometimes Finn didn't bring out the best in him. I was glad that he had T, or his 'hot Asian wife' as he calls her. She has done wonders for calming him down and I know their children are his world.
"You ok?" Luke asked me as we pulled up to the next hotel.
"Yeah, just tired." I said and he gave a small nod. He had changed since he had gotten a divorce. He seemed happier, but much more guarded about everything. I couldn't understand completely, but I had been through a bad break up so I could see where he might be coming from. We got our bags and it was almost midnight. I was exhausted, but not sleepy. I had been getting less sleep lately, and I knew that I was just looking forward to getting home.
We were checking in when Dash, Dawson, and Elias came dragging in after us. Dash smiled at me and I returned it, as he walked over to me.
"I had no idea when you said PA you meant all of them." he joked and I chuckled.
"Yes, well, it's really just Finn." I said and he smirked.
"We are going to get a beer. You coming?" they asked Dash and he looked at me.
"Would you want to come?" he asked me, but Finn spoke up.
"She's too uptight for beer." he joked and I sighed as Dash looked at Finn.
"I think she can make her own decision on the beer... but maybe she needs something strong when dealing with you." he shot back to Finn and I smirked as Finn's eyebrows raised at his comeback. The guys all chuckled and Karl slapped Finn on the back.
"I would like to have a beer." I finally said and they all nodded as Finn shot me a look. I told Dash my room number and went upstairs to put my things away. I was walking into the room when a hand shot out to stop the door from closing behind me. I turned to see Finn.
"What ever you need it can wait until tomorrow. You don't have an appearance until tomorrow afternoon before the show." I said and he shook his head.
"I just wanted to apologize for being an ass earlier. The water gun... was out of order." he said and I was surprised at this. He had only ever apologized once before, but that's because Karl had threatened to kill him.
"Thank you." I said and he nodded.
"But you looked sexy pissed off." he said and there is was... the real Finn coming out. I sighed and glared at him as he chuckled at me.
"Get out, Finn." I said and he smirked as I threw my things on the bed. He really was insufferable some days, and I knew that this was just a stepping stone to my real dream, but I hoped that it ended soon.
"See you at the bar." he said as he closed his door and I sat on the bed. I was debating on just not going tonight when there was a knock on the door. I grabbed my clutch and smiled at Dash as I opened the door. We walked to the elevator and stepped inside.
"Thank you for standing up for me against Finn." I said and he smiled at me.
"You are welcome... he's a good wrestler, but a dick." he said and I laughed at that statement, because I had no idea if Dash had seen the real Finn.
A few days later...
I was so happy to be home. I smiled as I walked into my apartment and collapsed onto the sofa. I was at least off for a few days for the 4th of July, and had already been invited to a BBQ with Dash. We weren't officially dating, but I was happy having another ally. He was funny, and kept my mind off Finn. I was woken up a little later to my phone ringing, and answered it without looking.
"Hello?" I answered and was greeted with Finn's voice.
"Lee?" he said and I sat up. I glanced at the time and my little nap had turned into many hours as it was now after 10pm.
"Finn, what is it? We are off?" I asked him and he sighed.
"I, um... I don't know. I shouldn't have called you." he said and judging by the slurring of his words that he was drinking.
"What's wrong, Finn?" I asked him. He had called me drunk before, and I was used to it. He usually was rambling about how he hated his standing in the WWE or missing home, but this time he seemed lonelier. I knew that being a PA could mean doing some odd things or even being a therapist at times.
"I guess I'm not used to being home." he admitted and I rubbed my eyes.
"We all get that way, but sleep and less alcohol will help." I said and he chuckled.
"Thanks Lee... and I hope you know that I really don't hate you." he said and I chuckled.
"Funny way of showing it...Night Finn." I said and hung up after he replied. I checked my messages, dragged my tired self or bed, and fell asleep while finding myself hoping that Finn would be alright. I didn't want to wake up to seeing that he had done something extremely stupid.
