After leaving the arena we arrive at a local bar and make our way to a table and order several drinks. "So Serena, did you enjoy your first time out in the ring?" April asks me.
"I did, it was an incredible feeling, it felt so natural and the fans took a liking to me straight away, I loved it." I respond. "I don't know how you keep it together with that much noise and adrenaline.
"You get used to it, and you also build up confidence with time too." Celeste assures.
"I have my first match tomorrow."
"We heard." Nicole responds.
"Are you nervous?" Brie asks.
"A little, but they are good nerves though." I respond. "I'll also have Nattie out there with me too."
"She's great to have around. Nattie was our first match too." Nicole mentions.
"I remember."
"So Serena, when is your birthday?" April asks.
"It was in March, I just turned 24." I answer.
"What did you do?" Celeste asks.
"Had a night out in Tampa with my girlfriends."
"Are you single?" Nicole asks.
"What's with all the 20 questions?" I laugh. "And no I don't have a boyfriend."
"So tell us about your childhood you briefly told us?" Brie continues.
"Well my dad died when I was 14." I say solemnly. "After he passed away, my mother became an addict and expected me to do everything for her. So, I left home and moved out at 16 and once I had enough money, I moved to Tampa and started my training."
"You must have seen and done some hard stuff?" Victoria wonders.
"I did and I'm not proud of some of the stuff I did, but I learnt a lot from it."
"Where's your mum now?" Brie asks.
"My mum is living in Miami now." I respond. "Around three years ago I stopped talking to her completely. But when I got call to be on the main roster, I thought maybe it would be nice to hear her voice, so I called her and I told her I made it, and from what I could here she sounded well."
"We are glad she's well." April smiles.
After more drinks Nicole, Victoria and I hit the dance floor. "I haven't had a night out in ages." I mention to the girls.
"What do JoJo and Eva do?" Nicole asks.
"Well JoJo is only 19 and Eva doesn't drink, we don't socialise a lot."
"And you like to socialise?" Brie wonders.
"If you mean, I like to go out and have fun, maybe have a few drinks, then yes I do."
"Good to know, Brie has a mode." Nikki responds.
"A mode?"
"Brie mode." Brie clarifies.
"And what is Brie mode?"
"Oh you'll just have to stick around to find out." Nikki tease.
"Now you have me curious."
"You're coming to Nattie's bachelorette in Vegas right?" Brie asks.
"I am." I confirm as we make our way back over to the table.
"Brie mode may make an appearance then."
A little while later I walk back over to the bar and bump into a large chest. "I'm sorry." I apologise.
"Ah, no worries." a voice assures.
I look up and see its Randy. "Oh hi."
"I saw you out there tonight." He alerts.
"Oh?"
"You got some attitude and fire."
"That I do."
"Have a good night." he wishes and passes me.
"What was that?" Nicole asks.
"What was what?" I question
"That with Randy? You two were flirting with each other."
I laugh a little loudly. "Are you serious? I wasn't flirting."
"Just be careful, he's a player." She warns.
I look at her shocked. "Really? Didn't he just get divorced?"
"Why do you think the marriage ended?"
I frown. "Thank you for the warning but I'm a big girl and besides I don't like him."
"Well from the looks of things he was trying to flirt with you." April chimes in.
"Trust me, I'm not interested in him at all." I assure.
After our night out we make our way back home and I see some familiar faces including the three Shield members. I notice the guys are in deep conversation but I can't help but take a peak at Colby and he looks good!
"Who's got you all flustered?" a voice asks from next to me.
I turn to face Celeste. "No one." I lie.
She looks in the direction I'm looking at. "One of those three huh?"
"No!"
"For the record, two are taken and one is close to being in a relationship." She mentions.
"Who?"
She smirks. "Well Joe is married and has a daughter."
"Aww cute."
"Colby has been with his girlfriend for a while."
"Is she pretty?" I wonder.
"So it's Colby." Celeste teases.
I shake my head. "No it's not." I deny. "I'm just curious."
"Yes she's pretty, but she's not a fan of his career, she doesn't like Colby being away for long periods of time and around us."
"Well I'm sure he wouldn't do anything to hurt her. What about Jon?" I ask.
"He's a bit of a wild one, but I've seen him hanging out with Renee."
"That's cute, Renee's lovely."
"She is."
I turn my head to face the guys and see Colby looking at me. His gaze meets mine and a glimpse of a smirk appears on his face.
The next morning I'm awoken by someone jumping on me. "Time to get up." Someone alerts.
I slowly open my eyes and see April on top of me. "Five more minutes." I groan pulling the pillow over my face.
April rips it away. "Sorry love, the car is picking us up in half an hour." she responds and I let out a sigh and start to get up.
Arriving at the arena we pile into the locker room and get the matchcard for show. I unpack my things and make my way to the ring for some practice and during that time I meet up with the tech team to hear my music that has been made for me.
Once warmed up I head to hair and make-up.
Once I'm finished I put my gear on which is an all black leather pants and crop top set with a small pink ribbon on the bust.
Nattie and I make our way to gorilla position. "Kick ass." April encourages as we walk by.
"I will." I chuckle and hear my music play.
"Just take a breath and walk out." Nattie advises and I do just that.
My music 'American Girl' by Bonnie McKee blasts and the crowd erupts as I walk out with Natalya. "This contest is scheduled for one fall, introducing first, being accompanied by Natalya, from Seattle Washington, Sarah." Lillian announces.
Natalya and I make our way down the ramp and enter the ring. "Miz, this is Sarah's debut match." Josh mentions.
"I know. She debuted last night with Natalya on Raw, and had a conflict with Aksana, let's remind you of what happened." Miz suggests as the titantron plays what occurred on Raw.
My music cuts and Aksana's starts. "And her opponent, being accompanied by Alicia Fox, from Lithuania, Aksana." Lillian finishes and leaves the ring.
The referee rings for the bell and I circle Aksana. She makes the first move and we lock up and she pushes me into the corner and gets counted for four.
As she backs away I quickly kick her in the stomach and deliver a couple quick jabs to her ribs and she stumbles into the corner. I place my foot against her throat and get counted for four.
Aksana recovers and goes to knock me down but I duck the swing and deliver a quick dropkick. "Nice dropkick by Sarah." Miz compliments.
"Come on Sarah." Natalya cheers.
I place Aksana in a neck hold but she fights back by elbowing me in the face, giving her the chance to deliver a drop kick. She covers me. "1, 2." but I kick out. "A kick out by Sarah." Josh announces.
Aksana pulls me up and runs the ropes, I side step and I wait for her to turn around and I jump and deliver a spinning heel kick to her face. "Oh!" the crowd echos. I quickly cover "1, 2" but she kicks out.
I pull Aksana up and whip her into a corner. I run and squish her into the corner. I stand back and run at her again, doing it a second time. This gives me the perfect opportunity for my finisher. I kick her in the stomach and she huddles over and I place her head under my arm and fling her up over my shoulder. "Look at the strength of Sarah." Miz points out.
"She calls this The Kiss of Death." Josh informs everyone.
I quickly fling her down face first and cover her. "1, 2 and 3."
As soon as I get through the curtain I scream with excitement as Brie and Nicole hug me. "You were amazing." They praise.
"Thank you." I thank.
Mark comes on over. "Great match. It looks like you enjoyed yourself." He praises.
"Thank you, I had the best time."
"Keep it up, you're doing great." Mark finishes and walks off.
"How do you feel?" Nattie asks me.
"Like I was born to do this, and I can't wait for my next one."
Once settled in my room I collapse on the bed. I hear my phone buzz and see its an unknown number: Great match tonight, you'll definitely be a future Divas Champion one day. Randy.
How the hell did he get my number? Thank you, but how did you get my number? I ask him.
It helps being friends with the COO. He replies.
That's not creepy or stalkerish at all.
You love it.
I don't but believe what you want.
Someone's cocky.
No just stating the truth. Anyway I'm exhausted thanks for the praise.
