Serena POV
I meet Brie, Celeste and April at gorilla. "Are you okay?" Celeste asks me.
"I'm fine." I lie.
"Kaitlyn you're first, followed by AJ, Brie, then Sarah." a worker informs us.
I watch as they all walk out. Finally my music hits and a large cheer bursts from the crowd. I shake off my worries and I walk out.
I walk out and stand at the top of the ramp. "And her partner, from Seattle Washington, the Divas Champion, Sarah." Justin announces.
"Last week, AJ and Kaitlyn teamed up to take on Brie and Sarah." Cole reminds everyone. "This is going to be very interesting to see how those two work with a team like Sarah and Brie."
"Very interesting indeed, but don't forget, Sarah is versing Brie at Battleground so anything could happen." JBL responds.
I make my way in the ring and my music stops and the crowd cheers. I hand my title to a worker and meet up with Brie. "I'll go first." I whisper.
Brie gets out of the ring and Kaitlyn steps forward. "It looks like it's Sarah and Kaitlyn to start off this match." Jerry announces.
The referee rings the bell and we are off and I don't waist any time and I charge at Kaitlyn full speed. "Sarah is not wasting any time." Cole says loudly as I tackle Kaitlyn and start unloading on her until the referee pulls me away from her.
Kaitlyn stands up in shock and the crowd cheers as I smirk and Brie claps in approval. Kaitlyn and I circle one another and we lock up. She pushes me into the corner and gets counted for four.
When she releases I deliver a cheap shot and kick her in the stomach and she stumbles and I charge at her and deliver a close line. "Lovely close line by Sarah." JBL compliments.
I cover Kaitlyn. "1, 2." but she kicks out. I drag her to our corner and tag in Brie. "Brie Bella is tagged in." Cole announces.
Brie and Kaitlyn have a back and forth match until they both charge at each other and collide in the middle of the ring. "Now is the time for someone to tag." Jerry advises.
To encourage Brie some more, I start to clap to get the crowd involved and they follow along. "Come on Brie." I yell out.
This does the job and she starts to crawl to the corner. I stretch my arm out as far as I can and she makes it to the corner and tags me in as Kaitlyn tags AJ seconds later. "Sarah and are tagged in." Cole announces.
AJ charges at me but I duck her take down and run the ropes. I pick up speed and when we meet back in the middle, I close line her. She gets back up but I deliver a drop kick and run the ropes again and deliver a scissor kick to her back. "What a scissor kick." JBL shouts. I cover AJ. "1. 2." but she kicks out.
I drag AJ towards the corner and look to the crowd and they know what I'm about to do. I start to climb the corner but Kaitlyn tries to stop me, but Brie jumps down from her spot, runs around and pulls Kaitlyn off the ring apron and she slams her head face first onto the apron and falls to the ground and the crowd cheers.
I continue to climb the corner to the top turnbuckle and I look back to make sure AJ is still there and I jump and deliver The Sarah Splash. I land on her with a big thud. "Sarah hits The Sarah Splash." Jerry exclaims loudly. "Brie better take notes."
I cover AJ. "1, 2 and 3." Here are your winners, the team of Brie Bella and the Divas Champion, Sarah." Justin announces.
After the match I'm still so confused about what I should do about Colby. "Are you okay?" Brie asks worried.
"I'm confused." I admit.
"What happened?"
"Don't worry, I just want this day to be over with."
"Come on then."
We make it to the locker room and some of the other divas are inside. "Great match." Nattie congratulates us
"Thanks." I say quietly.
"Are you okay?" JoJo asks.
"I'm fine, I'm just confused."
"What happened?" Eva asks.
"I saw something and I want to tell someone what I saw, but people want me to let it go."
"What did you see?" JoJo asks.
"I saw Leighla and Randy sneak into a empty room."
"Is this true?" Eva asks.
I nod. "Here." I say showing the photo.
"This was today?"
"Just before my match."
"You can't tell Colby." She enforces.
"Why not?"
"If you tell him this, this will break his heart, and this coming from you, is worse."
"Eva's right." Brie agrees. "Let this go."
"I can't just sit by and let this continue, he doesn't deserve this." I argue.
"We know that, but if you tell him, he is going to be upset and he will lash out."
"He wouldn't, I will explain to him what I saw."
"Whatever way you say it to him, will be just as awful." Brie replies.
I sigh. "I need to clear my head."
I walk out of the locker room stressing. This should be easy. I can just tell Colby what I saw, show him the photo, that should be enough. It shouldn't be this hard, his friends should be supporting me with this, they should be glad that he can finally get rid of the wicked bitch.
I make my way towards the locker rooms and as I walk down the hallway a door opens and out walks Randy and Leighla who clearly look like they've had sex.
I see her fixing her hair and buttons and I'm fuming. I quickly snap a photo and sneak behind a wall so no one can see me. Here is more proof, this is just what I need to convince him. I peek back around the corner to see if they have left, and they have.
I make my way to Colbys locker room and I've made the decision to tell him. He has to know what is going on. I don't care what the others say, I know I'm in the right. I eventually find his locker room and knock on his door and take a deep breath. I wait a couple minutes and finally the door opens and Colby is on the other side. "Hey." he greets.
"Hi." I greet awkwardly.
"What are you doing here?"
"Can we talk?"
"Yeah come in, the guys just left and Leighla is around here somewhere."
I step inside and take a look at his locker room. "Unfair." I comment.
"What's unfair?"
"You get your own locker room."
He laughs. "WWE love us." he jokes. "Now what can I do for you?"
"I don't know how to say this so I'm just going to come out and say it."
"What's going on? You're starting to worry me."
I begin to shake my hands nervously. "Have you seen Leighla at all today?"
"Not since I arrived, she said she'd find me after the show."
"How long have you been here?"
"Since 5."
"You haven't seen her at all during that time?"
"No, what's going on?"
I take a deep breath. "I was walking to catering earlier today and when I looked up I saw Leighla and Randy talking quite closely." I tell him.
His eyes go wide. "What do you mean closely?"
"They were whispering things to each other and touching each others arms."
"When?"
"It was about half an hour before my match. I didn't know what to do so I hid because I didn't want Randy seeing me and when I peered out from my spot they were gone."
"What do you mean gone?"
"They weren't standing there anymore." I clarify. "I walked down the hallway that they were in and I saw Randy open one of the locker room doors and escort her inside."
"Did anyone see?"
I shake my head. "I don't think so, but here." I say pulling out my phone and opening up the photo. I show him the first one which has the time of 7:40pm. "This was just before they went inside."
He takes my phone from my hand and examines the photo and I can see his heart break. "I see there's another one."
"That was just before I came to speak to you."
He opens the image and his eyes go wide and he seems to have a moment of disbelief and then his face changes and becomes angry. "Did you make this up?" he asks acusingly.
I gasp shocked. "What! No."
"How come it looks like you went looking for this?"
"I just happened to walk by it, I can't make this up, I couldn't even if I tried."
"It looks like it Serena." He disagrees. "How am I supposed to believe you when all you do is talk badly about her?"
I look up at him shocked. "Are you fucking serious?" I retort loudly. " Do you actually think I'm making this up? I would never do that, you know me better than that."
"What am I supposed to believe this doesn't make sense."
"You're supposed to believe me, and I get that it looks bad from my end but it's clear as day she's cheating on you, what don't you get?"
"No, no, I don't believe you, she wouldn't do this to me we're, we're engaged."
Now that leaves me speechless. "You're engaged?"
He looks me dead in the eye. "Yes, and I believe she wouldn't do this." he says hesitantly. "I know your feelings for me are still there and I know you wanted her out of my life so when the opportunity comes up, you make this announcement."
I gasp even more heartbroken. "I would never intentionally want to break you guys up. I meant what I said that night, I didn't want to be the other woman, I wanted you to make the decision on your own." I reinforce. "I'm here as your friend telling you from the bottom of my heart that this is the truth."
"That night was a mistake." He shouts angrily and for a brief second I see a flicker of uncertainty. I gasp. "I don't believe this, I knew you never liked her, and always spoke down to her and did this to hurt me."
I blink away the tears. "Do you really think that low of me?" I question and turn away from him trying to stop the tears and take a deep breath before I lose it. But then it clicks, he doesnt believe me, he wants believe his cheating whore of a girlfriend but not me. You know what fuck him. Fuck everything I ever felt for him. I turn back to face him angrily. "Do you not know me at all? Do you have any idea how much I care about you?" I question. "For you to say I would intentionally do this is to hurt you is complete and utter bullshit, and deep down you know it." I shout. "I would never go out of my way and do this. I'm not malicious, I don't treat people rudely, and I certainly don't go around making up bullshit." I enforce. "I've been through a lot of shit in my life; my father died, my mother was a fucken addict and I'll most likely end up like her, I was a fucking prostitute, I even tried to take my own life; but for you to say that I would make up shit like this, is probably one of the most hurtful things that could've ever happened to me, because when the person I care about the most makes me feel like absolute shit it makes me want to fucking quit." I rant and I go to walk away but I turn back and start laughing. "You know what fine, don't believe me, believe your cheating whore of a fiance, the one that has just been fucked by the guy who's been harassing me." I remind him. "I came here as a friend to show you that I care about you and I didn't want you finding out by walking in on this, or finding out some other way, but you know what fuck you and fucking forget it, forget me, forget our fucking friendship, forget our memories, forget our talks, forget every fucking little thing that has happened with us, forget everything, I'm fucking done! I'm officially done!" I declare and bolt out of the room.
I race out of Colby's locker room angry. You know what I've had it. I've had it with eveyone talking about me, I've had it with everything. I need to get out of here. I'm done! I storm back into the locker room and the girls look at me shocked. "I'm out." I shout.
"Wow, wow, wait stop, what?" Brie asks cornering me.
"You were right, I never should've told him, but you know what fuck it, I don't fucking care anymore. I wasisted my fucking time." I shout gathering my things.
Brie steps infront of me. "Wow, you aren't going anywhere until you calm down."
"Says who, you Brie?" I ask loudly. Everyone looks at me like I've lost my head. "What you've never seen someone lose it? Well congratulations you fucking have." I say sarcastically. "I've finally lost it, you want to know why, because of Colby fucking Lopez." I growl. "He didn't believe me but you know what, if he wants to be with a cheater than fuck it, because I'm done." I declare. "So now that I've explained myself I'm leaving without your permission."
I flash out of the arena and the anger has left and now I can feel the tears forming and they run down my face. I can't take this anymore, I yelled at Brie, I basically told Colby to fuck off and get out of my life, and I told him half of my past and now I don't want to feel anymore.
I harshly wipe my tears and step on the peddle as I need a drink or fifty. I quickly make it to my hotel, detouring to the closest bottle shop where I pick up a couple bottles of bourbon.
As soon as I'm in my hotel room I pop open one and drink straight from the bottle. I decide the best way to not feel is to get shit faced and go fucking crazy, so I decide I am getting the hell out of here and getting shitfaced.
After several sips of bourbon, the burn starts to ease and I start to get ready. If I'm going all out tonight; I'll dress as a slut because a, I don't need to worry about Colby as he can deal with his cheating fiancé; 2, I can forget about my feelings for Colby and thirdly I don't fucking care.
Once my hair is in brushed out and my makeup is done, I notice my eyes still have tears in them. I wipe my face and head towards my purse that has my sleeping pills. I quickly flip the lid and take a couple and pop them in my mouth followed by another few sips of bourbon.
Sometime later I'm lying on my bed drinking my bourbon listening to loud music and I'm ready to get out of here. I make my way to the door holding my second bottle of bourbon and when I open it and all the girls are standing outside my door. When they see me their mouths drop. "OMG." Brie gasps.
"Hellooo." I slir and walk past them wobbling all over the place.
"Wait where are you going?"
"Out." I say stumbling down the hallway.
"Shit she's hammered." Renee exclaims.
I hear them walk after me as I wait for the elevator. "What have you drank?" Brie asks worried.
I turn to face them and show them my bottle. "Uh, Bourbon."
"How much?" Nattie asks.
"One was full." I laugh as the elevator arrives. "Woohoo, elevators here. I can get out of here."
"There is no way you're leaving." Brie orders grabbing my arm and pulling me towards her.
I rip my arm out of her grasp. "Get your hand off of me." I growl. "I am leaving, so leave me alone."
"Not like this."
"Who's going to stop me?" I ask darkly. All of them look at me like I have lost my head. As this is happening the elevator is about to shut so I quickly jump in and before they can get in to the door shuts.
I get to the lobby and I stumble out of the elevator. "What the hell!" a voice barks. Jon and Joe walk over wide eyed. "Serena!" they gasp.
I smile wildly. "Joe, Jon." I greet loudly.
"What the hell have you had?" Jon asks concerned.
I hold up my bottle showing him. "Uh bourbon."
"Shit." Joe gasps. "She's hammered."
"If you could excuse me I'm leaving."
"You aren't like that."
"Like what? A slut, a liar, a no good friend, a person that makes up things, a person that sucks." I rant clearly not over what happened. "I am over everyone telling me what to do, now move out of my way." I order and attempt to walk past them but they stop me. I roll my eyes.
"We can't let you go." Joe responds.
"I'm going with or without your permission. Just stay out of my way." I warn and dodge their second attempt and head straight for the entrance.
"Serena, stop." they attempt again.
"Bye." I say and leave.
I quickly catch a taxi into Seattle as it's only about 20 minutes from the hotel and I know no one will be able to find me. I arrive at a night club and am immediately let in, just on my appearance alone. I head straight to the bar and a hot waiter approaches me. "What can I get you beautiful?" He asks winking.
I smirk. "Well, I would like a bottle of vodka, is that eligible?" I ask handing over a 100 dollar bill.
"Very much so."
"Well you are now my favourite person." I flirt looking at his name tag. "Dean." I say smiling. Later he comes back with a bottle. "Now I like what I see."
"Only the best for the most beautiful girl in this club." He flirts back.
"Oh you flirt, I like it." I giggle and make my way to the dance floor and start dancing and let myself go.
I am now unbearably drunk and have some how left the nightclub and made it to the cemetery. I stumble trying to find my dads grave and I eventually make it to a familiar spot and crash in front of it. I wipe off the dust and my vision starts to become blurry. "Make it stop." I whisper to the grave and I feel myself fading fast. "I'm sorry." I whisper and the last thing I remember is my phone ringing before I pass out.
Brie POV
"Shit where is she?" I sigh frusted. We've been following Serena all night, from the hotel in Bellvue, to the club in Seattle and now a cemetery, what the hell is she doing, and then it clicks. Seattle Cemetery, her dad. "Her dads grave." I say aloud.
"What?" Jon questions.
"That's where she is."
"Why is she there?"
"It's the only place she feels safe." April answers.
"Come on let's get her. Guys we may need your help."
"I'll let Colby know what's happening." Joe responds.
"How's he doing?" I ask.
"Losing his mind."
"Let's just hope she's in one piece." Renee comments.
"Come on the sooner we find her the better for everyone."
"Ring us when you have her and we will help you get her up to the room." Jon directs and we disperse.
We arrive at the cemetery and split up in the search of Serena. When we reach a peak in the middle, I notice a figure laying on the ground by a headstone. As we get closer the figure becomes clear and I gasp. "Serena!"
We all stop and notice her and run over. "Shit, she's passed out." April gasps.
"Let's get her to the car." Nattie directs.
We go to get her up and when we feel her, she's freezing. "Shit, she's freezing." I alert.
"The quicker we get her to the car and the better." April guides.
"She's barely breathing." Nattie worries.
"Come on help me." I urge.
As we go to grab her she mumbles "No, no, no, get off." We instantly retract our hands thinking she is tell us to stop. "No, stop, Adam." she shouts. "Get off." she mumbles and slumps over passing out again.
"What the hell was that?" Renee questions loudly.
"You don't think?" I wonder.
"Guys, now is not the time, we need to get her inside." Nattie expresses.
Once back at the hotel I ring the guys to meet us out front. Moments later Brian, Colby, Joe and Jon approach us. "Where is she?" Brian asks worried.
"Guys, it's not good, just prepare yourselves." I warn opening the car door. The door opens and inside is a passed out Serena slumped over in the back seat. The guys faces go wide at seeing her in such a state. I turn to face Colby who looks incredibly guilty. "You didn't do this Colby, yes you said some stuff that was harsh, but you were hurt, she is hurt and she's had a lot of shit going on and all it took was you lighting the fuse."
"But if I didn't go off at her." He argues
"We all say things we don't mean, you were mad, and she was there to take it out on, she'll forgive you, but before that she needs help."
"Should we take her to the hospital?" Colby asks worried.
"Not now, she needs to be inside." I respond.
"Let me take her." Colby offers.
I smile knowing he truly does care for her, and he knows he made a huge mistake saying the things he said. "Thanks Colby."
"Show me the way."
We make it back to Serena's room. "Listen Colby, I know you're confused right now, but you should know, she would never intentionally go out and ruin your relationship." I whisper.
He tears up. "I know that, but I was just so angry and hurt, I just wanted to blame someone, and it looked so bad on her end, but when I saw her face and she blurted out all those things I knew I fucked up, I just so badly wanted things to go smoother, I wish I never said those things."
"We all do that to people we care about Colby."
He sighs. "I made her do this."
"You didn't make her do anything, yes it was what drove her to losing it, but remember she's had a lot of shit going on too."
"She said something to me before she ran out of my locker room."
"What?" I ask.
"She tried to take her own life.
I gasp. "She never told me."
"I don't think she's told anyone."
"She mumbled some stuff in the cemetery earlier about Adam too." I mention. "I think there's more to the story there too."
"It makes sense as to why she feels the way she does."
"I don't know what to believe anymore, but she needs help."
"We'll be there to help her." he assures.
"She looks so peaceful." I notice.
"I'm going to let her sleep."
"Come by tomorrow she'll be better." I tell him. "But bring chocolates."
"I will, I don't want to lose her."
"We all don't."
