Becky pulled into the parking lot of the restaurant and turned the car off, looking over at Sierra. "You alright love?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. Why?" Sierra asked, glancing over at her.
"You're shaking." Becky reached over and took Sierra's hand, bringing it up to her lips and kissing her fingers. "If you don't want to do this..."
"No! It's not that...I'm just a little nervous."
"Why?"
"Well, it is our first date and all." Sierra replied, smiling and Becky laughed.
"That's all that's bothering you? It's going to be fine love, I promise. Let's get inside and find a table."

"So...tell me more about you." Sierra said once they had ordered their food and Becky smiled.
"I was just about to say the same thing to you."
"Since I said it first, you have to go first."
"That's how it's going to be huh?" Becky asked, giggling. "Well, I was born in Limerick, Ireland. I have one brother who I'm fairly close to. He and I grew up watching wrestling together but I was also into horseback riding, swimming and basketball. I started training to wrestle in 2002."
"Finn Balor trained you, didn't he?"
"Yes, along with a man named Paul Tracey. I made my debut after only five months of training and mainly wrestled in Ireland, occasionally tagging with my brother." Becky continued, smiling at the memory.
"That must have been fun for you."
"It was until in September of 2006 when I suffered a bad head injury."
"Oh no..." Sierra whispered and Becky smiled.
"I recovered but it took quite some time. I was supposed to return in 2008 but I decided that wrestling just wasn't right for me anymore."
"Obviously you changed your mind though." She said and Becky nodded.
"I came back as a manager in 2011 before signing my contract with the WWE in 2013. The rest as they say is history." Becky finished just as the waiter brought their meals.
"That's amazing. I'm so glad that you decided to come back to wrestling...you really are great at it."
"Thank you love. Enough about me though...tell me about you."
Sierra took a drink of her wine and sighed. "There's not much to tell really. I grew up as an only child in Lincoln, Nebraska with very strictly religious parents. I wasn't able to have many friends and I was never allowed to play sports or party or anything like that."
"How did you get away from them?"
"I secretly applied to college in Florida and ended up being accepted. My parents were mad as hell and threatened to do anything and everything they could to keep me from going but I finally was able to get out of there and I've hardly ever went back."
"How did you end up meeting Bobby?"
"My roommate in college Danielle was a huge fan of wrestling and she used to go to NXT shows all the time. One night she asked me to go along with her and I agreed. I had seen wrestling before but not a whole lot and certainly never live so I was curious about it. Bobby was on the card that night and was also part of the meet and greet. He and I started talking about random stuff and hit it off...by the time the show was ready to start, we had already made plans to go out to dinner." Sierra explained and Becky nodded.
"You guys had been together ever since?"
"Yeah. We were starting to get pretty serious and even had talked about getting married a few times but then he got called up to the main roster. Things cooled off for a while after that until he called me a couple of months ago saying that he missed me and wanted to try things again. I agreed to go on the road with him for a while and then eventually he talked me into applying for a job with the WWE."
"Do you like working here?" Becky questioned and Sierra smiled.
"I love it honestly. It's a lot of fun and I get along with most everyone."
"I'm glad. Now onto something more...personal. You've never been with a woman before?"
"No. I was raised to believe that two women being together was a sin so naturally the thought never entered my mind...until I met you." Sierra whispered, blushing.
Becky opened her mouth to say something but was cut off by Sierra's cell phone ringing.
"Dammit! I'm so sorry, I forgot to turn it off." She mumbled, pulling it out of her pocket and looking at the screen. "Oh God..."
"Who is it?"
"My dad." Sierra said, looking at Becky with eyes full of panic.
"Calm down love. Take a deep breath and answer it but put it on speaker."
Sierra nodded and laid the phone on the table. "Hello?"
"Sierra this is your father."
"Hi dad. How are..."
"I didn't call to exchange pleasantries and small talk Sierra." Her dad cut her off and she rolled her eyes as her face flushed with embarrassment.
"Then why..."
"You need to come home. Your mother and I are very disappointed in you Sierra. We didn't raise you to act like such a...whore." Her dad hissed and she winced.
"Dad I..."
"I refuse to have this discussion over the phone. You come home and then we'll talk."
"I'll be there as soon as I can get the arrangements made."
"You had better be." He snapped and hung up the phone.
"Great." Sierra mumbled, sighing as she looked at Becky. "Now do you understand why this is so hard for me to get used to?"
"I do love, I'm sorry. Are you really going to go?"
"I don't have much of a choice. I know my dad...if I don't go then he'll just send someone to drag me back."
"Then I'm going with you." Becky stated and Sierra looked at her in shock.
"Becky no..."
"Yes Sierra. I'm mainly the reason that they're angry with you and I'm not about to let you face it alone. I'm going...end of story."
Sierra sighed and slowly nodded. "Alright. We better get back to the hotel so I can make the arrangements for a flight home."
"Let's go then." Becky stood up and held out her hand.
Sierra smiled up at her and took her hand, allowing Becky to pull her to her feet before the two women made their way out of the restaurant.
