I arrive at Smackdown and I'm called to Janes office. "Hi Jane." I greet.
"Hi, I know you've been called in last minute but we want you to do an interview with Renee tonight." She informs me.
"No worries at all." I reply. "Anything in particular you want mentioned?"
"It is just a basic question and answer interview."
"When's this happening?"
"Just before the divas match." Jane answers.
"I better get ready then."
"Thanks again for coming in."
I walk into the locker room and see Brie, Nattie and the Funks. "Where have you been?" Ariane asks me.
"Jane wants me to do an interview." I answer.
"Oh cool." Ariane responds.
I quickly put on a white blouse with black skinny jeans paired with knee high boots and my hair is in curls.
Once I'm ready, I wait about half an hour before I have to be on set. When I arrive Renee is already there. "Hey girl." I greet.
"Hey love." she greets. "You ready?"
"Always."
We are given the countdown and the director yells. "Action."
"Ladies and gentleman with me at this time, Sarah." Renee welcomes and the camera pans and I appear on screen and the crowd cheers. "Sarah how are you?"
"I'm doing great Renee, it's been a crazy couple weeks but I'm loving every minute of it." I respond.
"Good to hear, now Sarah the fans want to know, what is going on with you and Seth Rollins?"
I chuckle. "The fans are always wanting to know what goes on." I retort. "But to answer your question, there is nothing going on with Seth Rollins and I."
"From Extreme Rules it doesn't seem that way."
"That's true, I may have gotten side tracked but I'm done with that." I assure. "So now my only commitment right now is my future."
"And what does that entail?"
"That's easy. Being Divas Champion." I announce and the crowd cheer loudly.
"So what would your message to AJ Lee be?"
I smirk. "Watch your back."
After my interview I make my way back to the locker room when I bump into Colby who seems to be in a heated phone call. He hangs up when he notices me. "Are you okay?" I ask curiously.
"Yeah." He sighs.
"Want to talk about it?"
"Not really." He declines. "I don't want to bother you."
"You wouldn't." I assure. "But if you don't want to talk about it, I'll drop it."
"Thanks." he sighs. "I saw your interview you looked great."
"In these old things." I say looking down at my jeans. "Thanks."
"You look great in all things." he flirts.
I blush. "I don't know, you haven't seen me in the morning yet."
"Yet." he whispers aloud. "You going out tonight?"
"Sure am."
"Want to go for another walk?"
"Sure." I accept. "I better go, the girls are waiting."
"See you later." he responds and walks off.
After Smackdown we hit up a local pub. We are seated at a large table drinking. "Good interview tonight." Brie praises.
"Thank you, I feel more confident when I do my promos." I thank.
"I can see it, you've improved immensely."
I smile. "Thanks."
"Are you going to get lucky tonight?" Brie wonders.
I spit out my drink out and she laughs. "No not tonight, that won't be happening for a long time."
"Why not?"
"Because no one is hot enough here."
"Someone a bit picky?"
"I am so picky." I laugh.
A little while later I feel myself getting a little drunk and I try to find Colby as we are going to walk home. I eventually find him talking with the guys. "Hey guys." I greet excitedly.
"Someone's drunk." Jon laughs.
"Oh hush."
"Having a good night?" Joe asks.
"Yes, you?"
"Yes."
"Do you want to go or would you like to stay, I can take a cab if you aren't ready to go yet?" I ask Colby.
"No I still do. We were leaving anyway." Colby responds. "Let's go."
"You boys don't want to come?"
"We're good." Jon declines.
"Alright." I farewell and Colby walks me to the exit and I stumble. "Whoops."
He catches me quickly. "If we are going walk try not and break an ankle." He warns.
"I'll try my best." I chuckle and he just shakes his head laughing and we leave.
The walk home is fun. We are telling jokes and just having a good time. I can't help but have feelings for him, he's sweet, I just wish he wasn't in a relationship, but being friends with him is enough. "So I hear you'll be in for a title shot at Payback." Colby mentions.
"That's true, a triple threat." I confirm.
"You excited?"
"Yes, but I still feel like it's to soon."
He turns to face me. "You're very talented Serena don't doubt yourself."
"Sometimes I feel like I'm not as good as people say." I admit.
"You shouldn't feel that way, you're gifted and you'll make a great champion."
"You think so?"
"I know so."
"Are you okay after your phone call earlier?" I ask.
"Yes, it's helped being out with friends."
"Good to hear."
"How have you been with the whole stalker thing, are you sleeping?" He asks.
I look at him. "Honestly I have my moment's when I can't."
"Like the night I found you on the roof?"
I nod. "Yes."
"You know bottling it up won't help."
"I know, but if I let it out, it'll become messy and I don't want that."
"It'll be bad either way, but whenever you're ready I'm here to talk."
"I appreciate it, and that goes for you too." I retort. "Was it Leighla?"
"Yeah, she's been on my case lately."
"Why are you still with her?" I ask before my drunk brain can think. "Shit, don't answer that, that was rude and that was my stupid drunk brain, doing stupid things, I'm sorry. I apologise." I say rambling. "When I drink I don't think sorry, I over stepped."
"Hey." He says stopping me by grabbing my wrists and guides me to face him. "Don't apologise you didn't overstep." he reassures looking me clear in the eyes.
I look straight back at him. "I didn't?"
"You didn't." he assures. "To answer your question, we have a lot of history."
"Like it's easier to stay with her and be unhappy?"
"I'm not always unhappy."
"You could be happier."
"I could." he agrees. "How about we not speak about Leighla?"
"Fine by me." I agree and we let go of the embrace.
I enter my hotel room and find April and Celeste. "Hi." I greet.
"What's got you smiling?" April asks.
"Oh nothing, I just had a good night."
"Did you walk home alone?" Celeste asks.
"No." I answer.
"Who walked you home?" April asks.
"Colby."
"Really?" Celeste grins.
"Yes, we just talked." I respond. "So what did you two do tonight?"
"Just hung out, had pizza."
"Pizza?"
"We have leftovers." Celeste points out.
"Really, where?"
"In the fridge."
