-Diva's Locker Room-
Shelby sighed as she finished fixing her hair. Rosa walked in. "Hey... you okay girl?" Rosa asked
"Yeah... I'm fine." Shelby smiled slightly.
"I'm sorry I just blurted that out earlier... I can't control my mouth sometimes." Rosa laughed.
"It's okay... don't worry about it." Shelby smiled
"So... how well do you know Dean?.." Rosa questioned
"We went out in high school." Shelby said
"Wow... I knew you had to of had some kind of relationship for him to stick up for you like that... he's known to be a bit of a jerk around here." Rosa said.
"He's kind of always been that way... that's just Dean... you learn to love it." Shelby laughs.
-Backstage-
Dean was walking down the hall he had a match against Wade Barrett tonight so he was clearing his head so he'd be ready. but he couldn't get Shelby out of his mind.
******FLASHBACK******
Shelby and Dean were in the school lunch room. "So... you okay?" Dean asked
"Yeah... wouldn't I be?" Shelby raised a brow
"You've been off...All day." Dean said
"There is just a lot going on at home... that's all." Shelby sighed
"Parents still fighting?" Dean asked
"Yeah... it's getting worse." Shelby shook her head.
"How much?..." Dean asked
"My mom left last night and still hasn't come home." She said
"Oh... wow." Dean said
"I know she'll be back... once she needs money..." Shelby said he mother was used to a certain kind of life style so she knew she'd never leave her father because her mother wouldn't get a damn cent out of him because of the pre-nup.
"oh.. I see." Dean shook his head
"I know.. how horrible does that sound." Shelby laughed slightly.
Dean shook his head and rubbed her back for a second "It doesn't... not really." Dean said
"I always come to you with my petty problems... how do you put up with me?" Shelby questioned
"It's not easy." Dean laughs.
Shelby slaps his arm playfully
"I'm just kidding."
******END OF FLASHBACK******
Dean snaps out of it when he runs into someone. "Shit.. I'm sorry." He says looking down at the person who he knocked down. Dean shakes his head when he see's it's Shelby. "You okay." He asked bending down.
"Yeah." Shelby said softly
Out of no where Dean shoved into a wall he looked up to see Wade Barrett. "Watch your self." Wade said leaning down to help Shelby up.
Shelby took his hand and shook her head "Wade." She sighed
"He could of hurt you." Wade said
"It was an accident." Dean said standing up
"You need to watch where the hell your going." Wade said standing in front of Shelby.
"Wade... really it's okay... it was an accident... accidents happen all the time." Shelby said
"You need to watch your self... putting your hands on me... just so happens to be one of the biggest mistakes you can make Barrett." Dean said and turned to walk away but turned back to Shelby "I'll see you later Shelz." he smiled at her then walked away.
Shelby smiled slightly and turned Wade with a serous look on her face "What was that about?" Shelby raised a brow.
"I'm sorry... he should of been watching were he was going... I can get a little protective of my friends." Wade admitted.
Shelby smiled a little "So you consider us friends?..." Shelby questioned
"Well yes." Wade smiled
"Well... I'm glad... but you shouldn't of done that.. it was an accident." Shelby said
Wade sighed "Okay...I'm sorry..."
"Well it's not me you should be apologizing to." Shelby said
Wade nodded.
-Outside the Locker Room-
Dean and Roman were talking outside the locker room "What are you so pissed off about?" Roman questioned
"Wade Barrett." Dean gritted his teeth.
"What did he do?" Roman raised a brow
"He needs to learn how to keep his hands to himself." Dean said rolling his eyes.
Roman nodded and shook his head as he saw Shelby and Wade making their way down the hall towards them. "Oh boy."
Dean looked and saw what Roman did he sighed. Wade and Shelby approached the two men. "Hey." Shelby smiled at Dean.
"Hey Shelz." Dean smiled and turned to Roman. "I don't think you've officially met... Shelby Lucas.. Roman Reigns.. Roman Reigns... Shelby Lucas."
Shelby smiled and shook Roman's hand "Nice to me you." Shelby smiled
"Same here." Roman smiled
"What are you doing here Wade?" Dean questioned.
Wade sighed and looked at Shelby who gave him a look as if to say go ahead and do it. He didn't want to apologize to Dean but he didn't want to seem like an ass in front of Shelby. "I wanted to apologize... for earlier... I was out of line." Wade said.
And Shelby smiled at him she was happy he did it. It was the right thing to do.
Dean gave Wade look he shook his head he knew he was doing it to get on Shelby's good side. "Alright... well I'm glad you have some sense." Dean smirked
Shelby shook her head and tried not to smile this was defiantly something she should expect from him.
Wade rolled his eyes and tried not to show his annoyance.
Rosa ran up "Hey girly." She smiled
"Hey." Shelby smiled
"I need your help..." Rosa said "Hope you fella's don't mind."
"Go for it...just have her back before our match." Wade smiled
"Sure thing." Rosa said and hooked arms with Shelby and walked off.
Wade smiled as he watched Shelby walk away.
Dean shook his head "Your not fooling anyone... besides Shelby but she has always tried to see the good in everyone...even when there isn't any." Dean said
"What the bloody hell are you talking about?" Wade raised a brow.
"I know you only apologized to get on Shelby's good side... you think your going to get in her pants... but it won't happen... EVER." Dean smirked
"You have no idea what your talking about." Wade said
"Oh I do... you have a thing for Shelby... I did some digging I found out from some of the creative team you asked for Shelby to become your manager... " Dean said
Wade laughed a shook his head "So what... I didn't know that was a crime."
Dean shook his head "You think your going to get close to Shelz and she's just going to fall all over you?... "
"That is none of your business... " Wade said
"Oh... but I'm making it." Dean said walking closer to Wade and getting inches from his face.
"Oh is that right?" Wade raised a brow.
Roman shoved the two away from each other "Okay... I think it's time you two head back to your corners." Roman said
"This isn't over..." Wade said backing away and walking off.
Dean laughed and shook his head.
