Small Town Forth Of July

Being awoken by Triple H's theme song blaring loud with the base full force is never the way to start your day, but I can not get anything else to wake me up. I don't know why but his theme is the ONLY thing that works, and believe me, my neighbors don't like it one bit. But that is just too bad, because they do not have to get up at five in the morning to get to school on time. Yeah, five in the morning, and I have been doing it for two years now, its hell, I swear! However, I seem to be getting used to it. My name is Jessica Hunter by the way, I work at the Wingate Inn just up the street from my apartment, and I have been working there now for just a year and two weeks. For Christmas last year I got myself my Mustang. I have been wanting one since I was little and have been spicing mine up a bit. I am also a senior in high school. I don't exactly love my school, but who does? That does not mean that I always hate it either though. But don't get me wrong, I won't exactly miss the place when I graduate, and I am counting down the days! Ok now that we are past my boring introduction it is time that I should get ready. You see, I have a best friend and I need to be up on time to be sure that she is up on time.

So that brings us to her boring introductions, then I think I will be done, for the most part, for awhile. Ok her name is Ashley Radcliffe. She works at the Hot Topic in our local mall. She happens to drive a 1997 Chevy Cavalier, not a bad looking car and it is a good bit newer than mine. However she paid less for hers because hers had more miles. She also happens to be a senior in high school, the same school as me. I am not going to bother you with her views of the place because they are about the same as mine.

Now, everyday before school we get together and I drive the two of us. We wake up by getting breakfast and coffee at McDonalds, then driving to the school listening to Disturbed. Today is our first day as seniors. You remember your first day in school, I don't think it really matters what grade you are going into, you can not stop the countdown till the end of the year. However, Ashley and I have a new perspective on school this year. We figured this out on the drive here this morning, this is the LAST year we will have school, the LAST year that our parents are forced to support us, the LAST year of life as we know it. But as depressing as it sounds, we were happy to have figured this out. We both lost our fathers early to divorce so we have always been more mature then our school mates and have always been independent.

Well as I said, you know how that first day goes, so I am going to try not to go into too big of an explanation. I would have to say that the MOST boring part of the school day is homeroom. I am not sure how it all happened but Ashley ended up in my homeroom this year, something about new students and all, I am just not going to ask. All I know is that it is dangerous to have her and I together for any amount of time.

Well her and I had first period study hall together also, and then we were separated till lunch then again till the last two periods of the day. My schedule was awesome, I loved how it went and the classes were great. I would be busy and that is how I like it. Ashley said that she even loved her schedule.

After school that day we went out to the mall to see who all we could catch up with. Also, our parents would be out of town for the rest of the week and we were on our own. So it was great to get out and get dinner. The rest of the week went much the same. However, the second week of school is when it really started. Ashley and I constantly had loads of homework and no extra time. However we found time to get together by doing the work together, ever since we were little you could not separate us.

Later in the year I found out that the WWE was coming back into Pittsburgh, close to where we lived, so I decided to get tickets. Over the years we have gone to every event in Pittsburgh and every year we seem to pick up new people to go with us and it ended up being a rather large group this year. It was Ashley and her boyfriend Eugene, my boyfriend Nathaniel and I, my mom Stacey, Ashley's mom Judi, a guy at my mom's work Norm, Norm's nephew Steve, and another guy that I met online, he was going to meet us there so I am not sure if he counts, and last- Ashley's brother Josh. We were going to divide up the people between three cars, mine, my mom's, and Ashley's. It was going to be great. We were going to leave at about two and stop to eat, then on to the arena to see wrestlers coming in.

That day around one everyone gathered at my place and we left a little early on our schedule. I knew the route real well from being there so many times so I led the way. Once we were there we all split up. My mom, Norm, and Judi stayed at the doors holding our places. Ashley, Eugene, Josh, Steve, Nathaniel, and I went to the lot where the wrestlers parked. It was always great to see all the buses there along with all their cars. This time we got a surprise while standing there. We got to see Randy Orton come into the building. This was odd since it was a RAW show and he is a SmackDown star, and since he had been suspended indefinitely. Ashley and I called to him but he ignored us so after him coming in we stayed for a bit longer and got to see Big Show. After we saw him we decided to walk around a bit and see if we could meet up with Brett, the guy I met on the net. Finally I ended up calling him on his cell because the gates were to open soon and we still had not found him.

Finally the doors were opened about five minutes late because of the impatient idiots in the front of the line. But we got in and to our seats in time. And even though we all came together we had seats scattered around the arena. Ashley, Judi, my mom and I all had front row. Everyone else was scattered. The show was great, as it always is, and even better this time since it was the day Shawn came back and DX reformed. It was great, Hunter was getting beaten by the sprit squad so Shawn came out, however there where just too many of the squad. So suddenly Orton runs into the ring and they all kick ass. It was funny when Orton came out though because he tripped a bit and landed on the guy right behind us who happened to be starting on to a new cup of beer. Well needless to say, Ashley and I were covered in beer. My camera bag still smells like it!

After the show we all left and went home. Once I got home there was no way I was getting to sleep so I stayed up for a bit and re-watched the show on tape to see who all I could point out. I got to see everyone by the end of the show and loved seeing my guys come back. I was sure that I would wear this tape out.

Chapter 2

Last day of school for the seniors is always great. It is this way because we get to leave, the juniors are no longer the underclassmen, and yet the seniors are not fully gone yet. Well this was our last day and now that it is here the year seemed to have gone fast, too fast in ways. However graduation presented a rather large problem. Each student was only allowed two tickets. Well I needed 5 and Ashley needed 4. I ended up getting two extra from a teacher I knew real well and Ashley somehow did the same. Students were bribing everyone to get an extra ticket, it was crazy.

Graduation rolled around quick and went on without a flaw. After, Ashley and I stayed to go to parties and other gatherings. By the time all the seniors were done with parties and such Ash and I did not get home until two days after graduation. That was how it went. You got in your car and went from party to party picking up people and dropping them off at random parties. It went on 24/7 nonstop.

After her and I got home we slept for a few hours and then got up and sat and wondered what to do next. All of it was over and the only thing left was our jobs, but we were adults now. Her and I kept our jobs but picked up another one to bring in some extra money. We ended up making about two-hundred dollars each a week. That was great especially since almost all of it went into the bank.

I am going to skip ahead two years since nothing much happened in the two of them.

I went to work as I do everyday and began my job. I was promoted from cleaning to greeting and guest services. Which meant that if someone had a problem I was to make it right. It was not a bad job because I got the front desk to myself and got to meet great people. This day however was different. Today I was finally going to graduate from the wrestling school that I had joined two years ago, there was nothing more for me to do there, I had beat everyone and climbed to the top and stayed there and I got to graduate a year early. Well I was excited about that and the fact that we had all gotten a raise. It was training time for the Steelers which meant that most of them would be at the hotel. In a way I was looking forward to it but I had hoped that they would be good and not destroy the place; I did not want that to happen on my time. I was only a week into my new position and did not want it ruined. Anyhow I was at my computer moving them all into the right rooms according to their needs and heard the door open. My automatic response to this is to look up, stand and greet the person with the normal "good morning (afternoon, or evening), welcome to the Wingate Inn, my name is Jessica and you can ask for me if you have any problems during your stay, what can I do for you?" I stood and began my little speech but stopped short as I noticed who it was I was talking to. "Mr. McMahon, what a pleasure, how can I help you today, I do not remember seeing your name in our books, do you have a room with us? Wow, I got it out, I was shaking like a leaf and completely self conscious about how I looked. "No, I came for a tour, I am trying to find smaller out of town hotels for my guys, they get mobbed in the big ones. Is there any chance you have time to give me a tour?" He asked, wow, humble, I did not expect him to ask, but for him to demand a tour, needless to say, I found time! "absolutely Mr. McMahon, anything for you." I hope that didn't sound corny. I began to lead him on a tour. He sampled our food, loved our prices, and adored the rooms. He said that he would consider us the next time he comes into Pittsburgh. However while we talked he asked me a few questions. "So, Jessica you said, is this your only source of income, this cant be making you a lot of money, can it?" "Well not this job alone, I work at McDonalds at night and wrestle on the weekends." "Well, then your pretty well off aren't you?" "Not exactly, I drive a 1990 Mustang that is about to die and I don't get paid for the wrestling. We are all supposed to get a portion of the money made that night but I give mine right back to the owner. I do a lot for the promotion, going in about two hours early to set up and leave about two or three hours after to tear down and organize profits, including the distribution of the checks to the guys. I was going to a wrestling school but I graduate tonight, early because I was at the top for too long so they told me I need to leave." "Wow, what do you plan to do with your life, I mean you don't look too old?" "Only 20. My friend and I plan to move to Texas next year, since that is when she will graduate from the school. We are hoping to get into a bigger school down there and hopefully get noticed by, well, you!" I blushed as he smiled. "I'm noticing! Ill tell you what, my crew and I will be back in Pittsburgh in about two months. You give me all of your mailing info and I'll send you some tickets and you two can come tryout for the company. How does that sound?" He asked. "Oh wow, Mr. McMahon, I can"t believe it, you have made my dreams come true, thank you. I accept." I quickly jotted down my info and gave him the card. He smiled and left. I almost passed out but soon got calmed down and resumed my work.

That night I had already gotten the night off at McDonalds and would arrive early for the ceremony at my school. Tonight was going to be a big night, there were going to be a lot of people there. Most of my friends and family, along with all the indy wrestlers I knew would be there. Everyone was excited about graduating and moving on to a bigger career.

"And this year we have a special student graduating. She has been able to climb to the top of our school and do all that she could here. And she was able to do it a year early. She has an incredible capacity for learning, and has such a huge heart for this sport. I think we can all expect great things out of her. She takes the old female standards in wrestling to a new unheard of level. Her name is Jessica Hunter, Jess come on up." Jason was our head trainer and a great guy. He was able to make you laugh and learn a lot at the same time. And he didn't even have to try to teach, you just learned something when you were around him. He always made a meeting between him and you interesting and one that you would never forget.

"Thanks Jason." I said as he walked away and left the microphone to me. "Well, here we are, three years down for most of us. I am so happy that I chose this school over all of my other options. I wanted somewhere that I could have fun and learn, and I found just the right place. This place has gone above and beyond my expectations. When I sat down to write a speech I had no clue what to say, and I still don't! So what I am going to do is wish everyone the best of luck and tell you some news. When the WWE comes back to Pittsburgh Ashley and I have a tryout match. So here I am, plugging a WWE event! Thank you all for giving me the chance to make my dream come true. And I hope to see you all on WWE TV soon, you all deserve it." Everyone stood and clapped as I walked off the stage with my diploma. As every student went up to get their diploma they had a chance to say something. This was possible because we only had 15 people graduating. It was just a great fun night, almost better then my high school graduation just two years ago!

2 months later

Two months had passed and I figured that Vince had lied about the tickets because I had been online and found out that tickets went on sale for RAW in Pittsburgh two weeks ago. I bought two just incase and was glad I did because I had not heard a thing from him since he and I met. I can't really say that I didn't see it coming though. But I got myself up and out of bed, ready for work and left. I grabbed my mail on my way out and left Ashley's in the box. I drove to work, grabbing breakfast on the way, then sat and ate it in my car. I did not like to eat at work because by the time people left me alone long enough to finish it was cold. So I finished and walked in the door, checked my messages and sat down to begin. One message caught my attention and I wrote down all of the information to call them back. I started on my calls. A lot of people were coming into town for the Forth Of July Celebration that our local park put together. It was a great show, and thankfully I had it off. So I called all of the people back and ended up booking 30 rooms, and that was just today, we would fill up fast. Then I got to my last call, Vince McMahon. I called him and ended up talking to his secretary who booked 30 rooms herself and said that they would be needing an escort to the Forth Of July ceremony held in our town. They would not be getting off for long, but would have the 4th itself off. I knew that I would not be the one to tell my boss about that because I did not really want to do it. I wanted to spend the day with my family, not babysitting the WWE. I took my lunch break at home and went through my mail. One from WWE headquarters. I ripped that open faster than anything. I had 4 front row tickets and 4 backstage passes, and a pass for the wrestler parking lot. It had a note saying that we could each bring one person of our choice and that we would need to be there around three to get ready and have our match before RAW started. I called Ash at her office and told her the good news. She was more than excited, she had also given up hope.

Two weeks later- two days before the Forth Of July.

My boss had told me that since my job was guest relations that I would be the one to escort the wrestlers to the park and to make sure they had a great time. I was pissed because I had no idea how I was going to stop this from turning into a huge autograph session. Then I began laughing to myself picturing it in my head- "the WWE invades a small town 4th of July celebration, and it's up to Jessica to keep it under control." Yeah a funny thought.

It was Sunday and I was expecting the WWE at any moment. An hour later they started pulling in. I expected them to pull in together but they trickled in slowly, and long enough in between that I had enough time to show each of them to their room. Later that day Vince walked in and was happy to see me. "Are you ready for tomorrow, Miss, Jessica?" He asked. "Yes sir," I said happily. "That's good to hear, how about your friend?" "She is extremely excited." "Do you think your ready to baby sit my boys on the Forth?" "Not really, Mr. McMahon, I'm a bit worried about that." I laughed. "Well I will have to tell them to behave." "Mr. McMahon, we are talking about Edge, Eugene, oh man, DX I can't even think about it." "I'm, sure you will do fine!" He said as he walked away, leaving me shaking my head.

It was 5 o'clock and about an hour before I could go home. I could not wait to get home to get in some practice at the gym. Just as I finished a paper I was working on I heard Ashley run it yelling "where are they?" "Who?" I asked. "You know damn well who." She said and looked at my book running her finger down through the names. "I know he's here." She said. "WHO?" I asked again, this time in a yell. "John, I know he is here, he is probably with the rest of DX, hmmmm, there he is, HA, room 37, HA byebye." She went running for the stairs. I had to stop her from making a fool out of herself, especially since John had not shown up yet and the only person in there was Shawn, and I had enough of a hard time trying to keep myself off of him. I did not need to try to keep her off of John too. I could just tell that this week was going to be interesting. She finally reached the room and I was right behind her. "He is not here yet," I said. "Yes he is, I saw him in your book (she knocked on the door) open this damn door Jess." "Ash, that was the booking book, not the check in book, you idiot. The only person in there is Shawn, the rest of DX is not here yet. They called and said they were in traffic." I said. "Oh" Bull, if Shawn was the only one in there you would be in there too." She said. "Well, yes, but apparently I have more self control then you do, I have a job to finish here Ash. And believe me, it is not easy knowing that Shawn is that close to me. I have to stop my self from running up here and doing things to him, and I have a key too!" I said with a smile on my face. She and I laughed and walked back down the stairs. I asked her to go get our workout clothes so we could go to the gym and she left. I sat back down and began calling all the guests for the night, we had a special call that we made to every guest at 6pm to see if they needed anything before I left and to offer a wake up call. As I was half way through Ashley showed back up with our clothes and went to change into hers. Since I was pretty much the boss the hotel was open to me. I finished my calls and had my meeting with the night desk person. I told him about the late coming wrestlers and he was not impressed, not a wrestling fan at all. Then I went to find Ashley and found her in the pool. I changed and joined her. We swam about 10 laps then left for the gym. We belonged to a 24 hour gym and mostly went there at night. It was more peaceful and we got to pick the music. We worked out for about an hour then wrestled for about an hour then took our showers and went home.

The next morning we were up bright and early to go get some more gym time in before our matches. I got to work and picked up where the night shift left. They left early as normal and messed up a lot of the work. As normal. I checked the check in book to see if any of the other guys had shown up, but according to it they didn't, however, I had to be sure. So I called their rooms, Shawn wanted a wake up call any way. "Hello Mr. Michaels, this is your wake up call. Could I ask you a question also?" I asked cheerfully. "Thank you, and yes you can." He said. Hearing his voice made me just about melt because of the ornery sounding Texan draw. "Have Mr. Cena, Mr. Helmsly, and Mr. Orton shown up yet?" "Yes they have." "Great, could you please have them come sign in when they can?" "I will tell them to get down there." "Thank you Mr. Michaels." "Call me Shawn please." "Ok, thank you Shawn, and remember that your breakfast here with us is free." "Thank you, I think I will come and have some."

About 20 minuets later a handful of freshly showered wrestlers showed up in the lobby. John, Hunter, and Randy walked over to my desk. "Shawn told us that we need to sign in." Said Hunter. "Uh, yes, Mr. Helmsley." I wasn't sure why, but all of the wrestlers were booked under their wrestling names, and that threw me off because I had no clue what to call them by, so I stuck to the names on the rooms. "Sign right here please." "Ok." He said and laughed as he signed it. He walked away and Randy went to sign his name. "Hey, I'm already on here." He said. I looked at the paper and he was right. "Mr. Orton, did you sign in last night?" I asked. "No." He replied. "Well, sir, let me check this out. I am so sorry for the confusion. You may go about your day, when I have had things all cleared up I will find you." "Ok." He said, he walked away laughing. John then walked over and signed the book. However, it took him a while and I looked at the book when he was finished and he had signed it and also signed it for Hunter. I walked over to the 4 of them, they were sitting on the large couch trying to find something good to watch. “Excuse me, gentlemen. I have a problem here. It seems that all of you signed different names to this sign in chart. Our policy is that everyone signs their own name.” They all looked up at once and claimed not to know anything about it. I just shook my head and walked away. I figured that as long as they were here and their names were on the paper it didn't matter. I began walking back to my desk when I heard John call me. "Oh Miss." He said. "There is nothing good on this TV." "Well sir, I can not do any thing about that." He began to cry and Shawn went over to him and held him. I gave them and odd look and asked what his problem was. Hunter answered me, "he has had bad experiences with hotel staff people. I mean, all he wants is a good show to watch." I looked around trying to decide if they were serious. "We have a large selection of movies that you can choose from, and this one is on me." John perked back up in his chair with a huge smile and hopped over to check out our selection. I gave him another odd look as he choose his movie and I hit play for them. About ten minuets into the movie they all began to yawn and left. I shook my head as I cursed myself for making Vince like this place. I soon heard them fooling around in the pool and hoped that they were not messing with the other people in the hotel. It was rather early so I did not think there would be many people in the pool.

Soon after, I saw a dripping wet Randy come into the lobby. "Oh, sir, please try to stay out of the lobby when you are wet, our floors do not take kindly to water." "Oh, I'm sorry. Could you please come here then." I walked over to him and he put his arm around me and pulled me close to him. By doing this I got soaked and pushed him away from me. He looked all upset, then, like he realized what he did, he looked sorry. "I'm so sorry." He said. "That's ok, it will dry. What did you need?" I asked. "I just wanted to apologize for my friends, they seem to be giving you a hard time. Not too many people can handle it and I was not sure if you could or not. You seemed a bit overwhelmed." "Well I kind of figured as much. No I'm fine really. But now that I know. Well let's just say that I thank you." I walked away smiling. It was only about two hours until I had to leave for the arena. I decided to call in the girl that was going to take over during my time off and get her to know the place.

An hour later I was changed and in the hotel's gym. I knew that I did not have time to go to my gym and get to the arena on time so I stuck to the hotel gym. A few minuets later Ashley showed up and her and I worked out for a bit. Then she went back to our place to pick up a few things and I made sure my replacement was ok. As I was showing her around the computer program we used often, Shawn showed up. "Hey, Jessica, right?" He asked, he was talking smooth again and I looked up and got lost in his eyes. I smiled and said, "yeah." He laughed at how I said it and asked if I needed an escort to the arena. "Well I'm driving out with my friend, but we would love to follow you guys out." "Sure, we are leaving in ten minuets. Can you meet us out in the lot?" "Absolutely." He walked back up to his room and I walked out to my car and got it ready to go. As Shawn and a few other guys began walking out to their cars to do the same, Ashley showed back up and we all began to leave. A few guys left before us then Shawn and the rest of DX went then we followed. They stopped along the way and got dinner and took it to the arena to eat. We got to the arena and parked in the wrestlers lot. We were very early so there was not many other people there and none of them were fans. All of DX came in one car and I would have loved to have a copy of one of there conversations in the car! Any way Ashley and I got the trunk open and began to gather things up to go. Randy walked up behind us and I could just feel that he was up to something. "Well, let's just see who you girls are rootin for." He said as he grabbed our posters and ran into the arena. It happened so fast that neither Ashley or I saw it coming. However once we figured out what happened we looked at each other then ran after him. "RANDY!!!!” I yelled. I heard him laughing and continued to run. We finally caught up to him and I hit him hard with my fist and demanded to have my poster back. He looked at me with a huge smile on his face “but I have to look first.” He said in a little boys voice. Ashley and I stood with our arms crossed and evil “give them back” looks on our faces. That made him giggle harder and began to unravel one of them. Ashley leaped at him when she noticed that it was hers. As she leaped he turned and held the poster high above her head. It was rather comical to see her jumping up and down trying to get it while he looked at it and held it too high for her. “So, a Cena fan, is that so” He said sounding upset. Ashley stopped jumping since he had already seen it. “What would you do if I were to…” He held the poster in front of her as if he were going to rip it. “Randy Keith Orton, I swear if you do you will never see the ring again.” “Oh really now, and how do you plan on accomplishing that?” He asked sounding amused. “Well, I would simply beat the shit out of you.” Ashley said sounding very serious. That sent him into a mad fit of giggles. She snatched the poster from him roughly and hit him with it hard and walked away smiling. I was laughing hard also when he suddenly stopped and began to unravel my poster. “Ok Randy you already got your kick out of us to day, now be nice and give me my poster.” “No way chick, and any way it would not be fair to Ashley.” “Please Randy.” I begged. “Nope.” He un rapped it the whole way “aren’t you going to jump around like a three year old two?” He asked laughing. “No, you find it amusing.” He looked at the poster and laughed. “I am not surprised and it explains a lot.” “What exactly does that mean.” I asked sounding offended. “I have seen the looks you have given him. And the way you have made everything perfect in our suite” He said all of a sudden serious. “Randy, there are no looks. And your suite is perfect because it is my job.” I knew he was right but I was not going to admit it especially not to him. I knew he would turn it into making me a fool. “No, it is more then that. And I think it is more then an obsessed fan. You know the way here with your eyes closed yet you take up the offer to follow us. You even buy from the same place as Shawn. Jess, it’s obvious.” I took my poster from him and walked away shaking my head.

Ashley and I met up with the rest of the guys and walked to ring side to sit around the ring and eat our dinner. After we ate Randy and John teamed up against me and Ashley so we could all get some practice in. It was great because Hunter and Shawn did a run in and it ended up in a joke of a match with everyone trying to take it serious and failing big time. Finally a guard came up to us and told us that they needed to finish up and that we were in the way. So Ashley and I found our way to our locker room and found a note telling us to be ready and in the ring at about 5 so we could have our matches. We got dressed and left our dressing room since it was more interesting to walk around and see all of the chaos, and cause some of our own. It was kind of unwritten but we hung around DX and they hung around us.

At about 5 till 5 Ashley and I made our way to the ring. Vince was sitting on the wall watching two other guys wrestle and writing what I figured were notes. A few other guys were scattered around the arena watching and working on things. Ashley and I sat on the ramp and watched also. After a pin was counted the guys shook hands then shook hand with Vince then left. When they passed us they smiled and wished us luck. We smiled back and thanked them. Once Vince called us we went up to him and shook his hand. “Nice to see you again Mr. McMahon.” I said. “The pleasure is all mine. And it is nice to be meeting you.” He said to Ashley. “Likewise Mr. McMahon.” He smiled and asked us to begin. We got into the ring and shook hands with the ref then began our match. We had a few things set up but most of it was improvised. We both liked to work that way. It was much easier to set it up as you went. We went about 20 minuets when Ashley pinned me and got the count. Vince clapped and I heard a few other claps and looked up to see DX watching. I smiled at them and we all walked away.

We went back into our dressing rooms and took turns showering and changing. Once we were done we went back out to watch them finish setting up. Once we found out that they would be opening up the doors we bolted into the back so we could get our tickets. Once we got them we went back into the arena and jumped the wall to our seats and met up with our moms. We laughed about the whole situation and watched RAW. When DX came out they walked right up to us and did the crotch chop and we lost it laughing.

After the show we went back into the back with our moms and showed them around. We all sat out in the arena with a lot of the guys and watched them tear down. As we were all sitting around talking and playing bullshit a WWE official came up to us and said that Vince wanted to see us in his office as soon as possible. We excused ourselves and followed the guard to Vince’s office. “Hello ladies. I enjoyed your match and hope you enjoyed the show. And I’m sorry, but, I will have to get you two to go to the office to get your paper work to join us.” We took a deep breath and let it out. “Oh wow. Thank you.” I said. “God, you scared us. We thought you would say that we were bad.” “No, I really see potential in the both of you.” “This is so great” I said. “It is, but what about the school and our jobs.” “Well, seeing as you will be working for the WWE I don’t think you will need to finish the school, do you. And again, seeing as you will be working for the WWE do you two think you still need your other jobs.” “No certainly not, we will give our notices. Thank you so much.” I said trying to remain professional. “Yes thank you, when can we start?” Ashley asked just as excited. “As soon as you can get your papers filled out and back to me.” He said. “Great, where do we get the papers?” I asked. “At the end of the hall make a right and go the whole way to the end and it’s the last door on the left.” He said. “Great.” Ashley said. “We will be at the Wingate until early on the 6th. So if you two can get them to me by then you may be able to leave with us.” “I’m not sure if either of us can do that. We would need to give our two week notices.” I said. “Well you will need to let me know what you two can do.” “Ok, will do.” Ashley and I walked out of his office and back out into the arena to tell everyone the good news. By there there were not many people other then the tear down crew left in the halls. We walked back into the arena area with sad looks on our faces hiding the papers. We walked over to where everyone was seated and picked up our hands and sat there looking at them. No one said anything but stared at us waiting to know what happened. “WELL??” Randy finnaly broke the silence. “What?” Ashley asked sounding innocent and clueless. “Oh, Ash, I think he wants to know the news.” I said sounding upset. “Well so far it don’t sound good.” Shawn said. “No its not.” Ashley said. “Aw, im so sorry.” Said Stacey my mom. “Yeah, we have to quit our jons.” I said. “What, why?” Asked Judi, Ashley’s mom. “BECAUSE WERE RICH BEATCH, AND WE DON’T CARE.” Ash and I said together. “Copycat!” Hunter pouted. “Yeah well we will copy you all the time now that we are WWE divas baby!” I said and everyone jumped around screaming and hugging. “Well this is surly a time to celebrate, im buying everyone a drink.” Said hunter and everyone agreed to do the same, except the adults and out boyfriends who were only twenty and they all said that they needed to get home. We took the them all to the lot and Ashley gave her mom her car and they all left and we were left standing in the parking lot. Then Shawn turned around and said that we did not look old enough to drink and that since our boyfriends were not that he doubted that we were either. “Aw shut up Shawn you don’t know how old they are, maybe they like the younger guys.” Randy said laughing. “We are old enough, this will be our first drinking experience but we are old enough.” I said. “How can you be old enough to drink and have not gone drinking yet?” Hunter asked amazed. “We turned 21 a week ago, and so far we have not had enough time to go drinking.” Ashley said. “Yeah, and we could have gon to one of the shity barsin our town but we wanted to come out here and have some fun.” I said. “Well then we shall all get you plastered out of your minds tonight. Shawn you’re the certified driver as always.” Randy sounding happy to be able to get us drunk. “As always.” Shawn said. “No, Shawn this is a party no one is getting off that easy. We are renting a limo to pick us up in a few hours and we will drive back into Latrobe.” Hunter said. “I take it this will be an all nighter tonight, complete with a hangover for the forth of July?” I asked. “Yep, get used to it. Welcome to the WWE.” Said John. “Oh great.” Said Ashley. We all piled into my car and drove to a bar called Tequilla Willies. We all walked in and sat at a table. John ordered the first round of drinks claiming that everyone MUST try what ever a Dirty Sanchez is. We all took a drink and it took a while to get used to but I soon began to thoroughly enjoy mine. The second round was curtsy of Randy and happened to be Jose Quervo. Ashley and I finished those off too then it was Shawns turn to order a round. “Well, as you all have made very clear, this IS a party so WHERES THE RUM? We cant leave Captin Jack out of this one!” So there we were drinking rum. “Your turn.” Randy told Hunter. Hunter sat thinking a while before he ordered for us “We will have Alabama Slammers all around, thank you.” He said smiling. “That don’t sound too good.” I said beginning to feel the results of the night. The waitress brought our drinks over and I began to slowly drink mine. After everyone finished they asked if either of us wanted anything. “Any thing with lots of fruit flavors!” Ashley said. “And I will have anything with strawberries.” I said. The guys laughed and ordered their own new set of drinks. We sat around in silence and continued to order different drinks trying almost everything until it was about 4am.

The guys decided that we should leave since we would have to get up early in the morning. For them this was a slow night as far as drinking went but we were a different story all together, we were so plastered it was not even close to funny.

In the limo

We all got into the limo with the guys helping the two of us who could barley walk. They all just thought it was so funny. I could not stop laughing and that did not help, there realy wasn’t any thing to laugh at either. We were listening to music as Ashley all of a sudden yelled “BREAK IT DOWN!” That got me laughing again. She started to say it over and over until John shut her up “WOULD you stop that please.” She got a real hurt look on her face then yelled “think you can tell me what to do?” in response. He just looked at her and shook his head. “Good,” she said giggiling then passed out on the floor. And as I said I was laughing uncontrollably. Shawn all of a sudden grabbed my face and told me to stop it also, so I did. I sat there looking around. “I think im going to be sick.” I said and layed down. I happened to put my head on Shawn’s lap and stayed there. “Do you guys think we could do something about this?” He asked the rest of the guys. “As if you not enjoying it. I know Jess is.” Randy said. “What does that mean?” Shawn asked defensively. “I know something you don’t know Shawny-boy!” Randy said sing- song like. “Really, what is that?” Shawn asked curious. “Oh come on, she loves ya man.” John said and Randy shook his head in agreement. “Oh really, and where did you all get this information?” “I have my sorurces.” Said Randy with an ornry smile. “And it’s obvious to the rest of us.” Said Hunter. “Well im not the only one, Mr. Cena.” Shawn said trying to get the attention off of him. “WHAT!?” “Like you don’t know what I mean. Ashley is in full out love with you. You really should just realeave her of the embarrassment and kiss her.” “Shawn, you need to stop the drinking, either that or you had too much tonight because you are out of your mind. She probably has someone anyway.” “John, you’re the one that is out of their mind if you cant see it. Im not going to tell you how to run your life, but you have till the 6th to claim your love.” Shawn said sounding sweet. “Ok when did this turn from a fun party to a love counciling secission?” Asked Hunter. “Aw, don’t be sad Hunter, we all love you here.” Said Randy trying not to laugh. “Well now I think im gonna be the one to puke.” Said John. “Ill come with.” Joked Hunter. They sat quiet the rest of the way to the hotel with the girls asleep. Once they got to the hotel John carried Ashley up to his room and Shawn carried Jessica to his. After getting to their suiets they guys took turns showering and went to sleep. Shawn and John ended up sleeping on the floor, giving up their beds to Ash and Jess.

7am the next morning- the Forth Of July

That morning I was woken up with Shawn shaking me gently. I saw him and just about lost it. I could not remember a thing that happened and I could not even imagine how I could have gotten near this man. I sat up quick to ask and it all came back with the sudden dizziness. I began to feel really sick and whispered the same thing to Shawn. He turned around and got a bottle of tylonol and a tall glass of my favorite iced coffee. I smiled and took them from him asking how he knew about the coffee. You could only get this stuff at our local mall and that was about 20 minutes away, not counting lights and traffic and I wanted to know how he knew because it was not something you would just grab. However he would not tell me. “You can go get a shower, I went to you place and grabbed the two of you some clothes. Ashley is not up yet so why don’t you go get your shower and change.” I was touched. Why was he being so nice to me, and how did he know all of this stuff, and how did he get into my house? “Shawn, that was really nice of you but how did you get in?” “Well I hope you don’t minde but I took the keys from your purse, im sorry bout I thought you would like to change for the Forth.” He said with his Texan draw heavy. Having him, the guy I loved to watch and dreamed about so often be so nice to me was great. I stood finishing my coffee and went to take mt shower.

While I was in the shower John woke Ashley up. “Hey, come on, get up Ash.” He said quietly shaking her gently. “What do you want?” She asked grumpy and groggy. “Come on chick, I got you some stuff to help with that hang over.” He said. She sat up. “John? OH MY GOD, your John Cena. Wow I MUST be dreaming. Am I, well you would not tell the truth. What are you doing here?” “Ashley hun, this is not a dream, I swear. And you need to get up so we are not late for the Forth.” “Oh, wow, is it morning

already?” She asked finally remembering what all had happened. “Yep, come on. Drink your coffee. Jes is in the shower, but as soon as she is done you can have it. Shawn and I got up early to go to you guy’s place to get you two a change of clothes. Hope you two don’t mind.” “Wow. Thanks.” She could not believe that this was happening. She looked around the room. Randy was still sound asleep and the rest of the beds were ruffled and empty. Hunter was on the phone pacing around the other side of the room and Shawn was looking for something to watch. And she could also hear the shower running. She could just imagine how happy the hotel cleaning staff would be once they all left for the Forth, the room was a mess. She sat there picturing what the Forth would be like this year. Most of the WWE would be there and her and Jess were bound to go insane trying to keep them out of trouble. She could just picture all the chaos.

I turned off the water to my shower. I would have to let Ash into one of the unused rooms because I used all of the hot water. Those were the kind of showers I took, if they were not hotter then hell, they were not showers. I dried off and got dressed in the clothes Shawn picked out. He had good taste for me at least. He picked out my cameflage tank top and a pair of black shorts and also grabbed my sandles and a pair os socks, underwere, and a braw. The braw he picked out was tipical, the most sexy one I own, not realy one that I would have picked for this day since I would be all ofer the park but I still thought it was cute. I got dressed and cleaned up the bathroom, then grabbed Ashley’s clothes and left. I dumped them on her bed and told her to hold on. I took the hotel phone and called Sam (my replacement) at the front desk. “Hey Sam, could you tell me if there are any rooms empty?” I asked her. “Yeah, 34, 15, 22, 56, and 47. Why?” She asked confused. “Ok, um, 15 has a big shower. Could you mark that one as occupied for the next two hours?” “Yeah, Jess, is something wrong?” “Nope. Thanks.” “Ash, you know where room 15 is right?” I asked and she shook her head yes. “Ok take your clothes down there and get your shower I used all the hot water. You have it for two hours but we don’t have that much time. Try not to mess it up too bad. Be back as soon as possible.”

Everyone was looking at me as Ashley got up to leave. “Wow, even with a hangover she gets stuff done.” Said Hunter amazed. “Yep, a little hangover aint gonna stop me. Is there by any chance any more of that coffee?” I asked. They all said that there was not. “Ok well then I have to get started on getting you all up in time for the buses. There is breakfast down stairs, I suggest you get it down there because there are no breakfast foods at the park.” They all just looked at me amazed that I did not look at all phaysed by the hangover. I left the room and took the elevator down to the main floor. I stopped at the breakfast buffet and grabbed a baggle and some more coffee. I got to the main desk and was greeted by Sam. “Did you send out the wake up calls yet Sam?” “No, not yet. Why?” “Well I wanted to call the wrestlers, you can get the rest.” “Oh gee thanks you lucky idiot. Is it true?” She asked jelous. “Is what true?” I asked. “I heard that youand your friend got WWE contracts and DX took you and her out and got the two of you drunk to celibrate and then carried you two in here because you were passed out, and that since you were passed out you two spent the night with them. Is it all true?” “Yes Sam, if you must know, that about sums it up.” “Wow, so does that mean that you are leaving us?” She asked sounding a bit sad. I had made a lot of friends here and really would miss the place. It would be hard leaving. But I knew for sure that I would stay here any time we were close. “Yeah, and im going to miss it too. I love everyone here.” “Wow, will we get to see you on TV?” “Yeah, that is what my contract says.” I was trying to sound like it did not bother me to leave. “That is so awesome, I will make sure that they have it on everynight. Do you know what show or who you will be?” “No, I don’t know any of that. I have not even actually signed the contract yet. Ashley and I are going to our lawyer tommarow to check it over. Then I guess we are meeting up with Vince to go over all of the other stuff.” “Wow, this is just so great!” I was expecting her to start jumping around. She was so excited for me and I was thankful that they were not going to be upset at me leaving for better things. “Yeah, I still cant believe it. I don’t even know what to say.” I said with a laugh.

I began my calls to all of the wrestlers that would be going to the celibration in the park. They needed to know to be in the lot and ready for the bus in about an hour. Most of the guys that were going would be going to the parade also. It was hard but I managed to pull some strings and evnded up getting a big part of one of the sidewalks along the parade route officially taped off for us. It was toward the middle, which I was not happy about, but I was able to get it. That alone made me happy. However we would be sitting among ALL of the parade goers, and we would have to walk from the park to our seats and back. Which wouold mean a half and hour (both ways put together) of walking through crowds. I had no clue how I was going to be able to keep this all together.

I went back up to DX’s room once I was done to see if Ashley was through with the shower. By the time I got back up there all of the guys and Ash were sitting on the floor against the beds eating popcorn and watching an old WWE tape. I laughed, “I take it you guys are not going to get breakfast.” “Nope.” Ashley said not even looking up from the tv. “Well then I expect you are all ready to go?” I asked since they would need to be soon. “Yep.” They all said together, again not looking up. “There is an elaphent downstairs and would like to have you all sign his ass.” I said. “Tell him we’ll be down.” Randy said never looking up. That threw me into a fit of laughs. After a few minutes of me laughing Hunter looked up. “Whats up with you?” He asked. “Oh, nothing, nothing at all.” I said still laughing. I went back down the stairs figuring that I would just call them when they needed to be down for the bus. I knew they were having a good time but I had a job to get done. I took over the desk for Sam while she wnet to check up on her kids and got breakfast. While I was there I wrote up an email to my boss letting him know what all was going on. I was a big part of the hotel, I ran it for the most part. I had a boss to answer to but he was the only one above me. After a bit, wrestlers started down the stairs. They all had small bags with them, I suggested a book, cell phone, and music if they listened to it. The bag would also help if they were to win anything. The bus would be parcked in the way back of the parking lot so I suggested they pack light because it would be a bit of a walk to dump things at the bus, however the bus would park closer about an hour before the fireworks. So the wrestlers began their ways down to the café to get breakfast, most of them waved or greeted me on the way and I smiled and waved back since I was on the phone most of the time.

It was about twenty minutes until the bus was to leave so I began calling the few people who had not come down yet, including DX and Ashley. The conversation with the Dx was not a long one, in fact there was no conversation, not on the phone at least. So after I called the others I ran back up the stairs to see what was going on. By the time I reacked their door I could hear that they were watching “See No Evil” I knocked on the door and heard them all scream and laughed. Shawn yelled to come in and I opened the door. “Come on, we need to get ready to leave now. The bus is starting to board.” “Ok.” Hunter said sounding depressed. “Well, now don’t sound so happy.” I said sarcasticly. They all began getting up and gathering their things and walking out the door one by one. I led them down the stairs and to where the bus was to pick them all up. “Oh I didn’t know there was breakfast down here.” John said running into the café. “Neither did I, Jess you gotta let us know these things. I say we join him.” Siad Hunter as he and the rest followed John. “Oh my God, I DID tell you guys about this.” I said not believeing they were doing this to me, and not sure if the were joking or not. “We REALLY need to go.” I said frantic. “Aw calm down we will be on the bus in plenty of time.” Randy said with a full mouth. “Randy, for God’s sake chew first. And I am getting on the bus now, if you guys aren’t on there in 5 minutes we are leaving. Ashley knows her way around, you will have to walk.” I said as I left and herd them all laugh. This is going to be one hellofa day. I thought to myself.

On the bus…

The guys and Ashley ended up making it to the bus just in time. The driver was shutting the door as they were walking out. They all walked past me smiling with food still in their mouths and I shook my head discusted. “Are we ready now?” Asked the driver, I think we were already agrivating him. “Yes, we are now, I am so sorry for them.” “No need to be sorry ma’am, I am the one who feels sorry for you. You are the one who has to spent the day with them trying to make them behave. Now that is a job.” He laughed. I gave a short fake laugh of my own since I did not find it funny at all. As we were leaving the parking lot I heard Randy start to sing. “This is the song that never ends, it just goes on and on my friend, people started singing it not knowing what it was but they’ll keep sing just because this it the song that never ends it just…” By then the whole bus joined in and I saw the driver laughing. I stood up faster then anything and shoudted, “oh no you don’t, there will be absoulutly none of that, don’t even try it.” They all got quiet and I sat down. “Fun SUCKER!” I heard Ashley yell. “Yeah you can suck something else too.” I told her. “Oh I will.” She promised giggling. “That’s just sick.” I said descusted. Soon the bus pulled into the parking lot and all of us began filing out.

The walk to our seats was uneventfull. It was rather early and not many people had shown up yet and that is why I planned to go so early. Once we had all fought over who was sitting where and who was going to sit by who, this argument lasted about 20 minutes, I noticed Ashley and a bunch of the wrestlers huddled together, I also noticed that they were all quiet and cringed evcery once in a while. Being qurious and not wanting to be left out of the fun I went ofer to them and found that someone had brought a personal dvd player and were watching the rest of See No Evil. “What ARE you doing?” I asked trying not to laugh. “This is not a movie that you can just leave hanging. And you are the one who pulled us away from it in the first place. So I brought it with me, I figured we would have time some time in the day to watch the rest of it.” Explained John. “Well this really isn’t the place for that kind of movie, guys. This is a family themed day.” I reminded them. “You really are a fun sucker.” Said Hunter depressed and shocked. “There is almost no one here.” Complained Randy. “Yeah mom, just a BIT longer.” Pleaded Ashley. “Yeah, why don’t you join us Jess?” Asked Shawn with that cut Texan draw again. And knowing me I could not disappoint him so I joined in. I don’t know why I was being so uptight, I never used to be like that. I think it was just the stress of the whole thing. It went from and everyday tour to a tour with Vince McMahon then to me and my best friends becoming wrestlers, to this now, me babysitting these guys. However, I realized that I would be spending a lot of time with these guys and this was a once in a lifetime experience and I should just have fun with the whole thing. So we all sat there laughing at all of the gore, we were a bunck of sick people. And I soon found out that I would have a great life with these people. About two hours after we had arrived the fire whistle started to blow, signifying the beginning ot the parade. By that time we had finished See No Evil and had switched to one of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour DVDs. So once the fire whistle rang we all went back to our seats and enjoyed the parade making the normal jokes about the Grapeville truck (a.n- this is a real celibration that goes on im my little town and there actually is a Grapeville somewhere around here, and every year this truck ends up in the parade. It is something to make fun of since it is this big purple truck with grapes drawn on it!!!)

The parade ended up going off with out a problem. A few people noticed and asked for autographs but it didn’t seem to have made its way around the town yet. Which I was extreamly thankful for, I knew it would make the walk back down to the park a lot easier. We did end up getting to the park with no problem. This day was going way too easy. Once we got to the park we set our chairs around near the bandchell (a.n- a place in our local park where the bands perform oin this day and many other days too!) and began watching the Blue Collar Comedy tour again. Once the music began we put the DVD away and began playing cards. We began with uno. Now this is a great game to play if everyone playing is mature, I should have know better!

“HA, you didn’t say uno, haha pick up looser.” Said John happy that he wasn’t about to loose. “I so did say it, its not my fault that you have selecvtive hearing.” Said Hunter trying to lie his way out of picking up more cards. “No you didn’t Hunter.” Shawn said, he had the most cards in his hand. “You are just saying that because you’re the one loosing bad.” Said Hunter. “OK BOYS, Hunter pick up two cards, there I split the amount he had to pick up and now everyone has to shut up. And from now on when you say uno say it loud.” I said trying to stop them from making a scene. “No, I shouldn’t have to pick up any. Eveyone here heard me say it and they just don’t wanna loose.” Pouted Hunter. “hunter it is eather you pick up two or we are done, I love to cause trouble but I hate fighting over games.” Said Orton sounding the most serious he had sounded since I had met him. Everyone looked at him and bust out laughing. Hunter picked up the two cards but ended up winning the game anyway.

After cards we all sat around listening to the band then decided it was time to get up and walk around. So we didn’t loose our spot or havt to take all our stuff with us we went in shifts of about 4 or 5 at a time. As we were walking around not much happened however All of DX decided that they all had to have a gold fish. They each bought a bucket of balls and then looked at eachother. All at once I saw them all pick up their buckets and throw the entire buckets of balls at the little containers. A bunch of balls ended up in each of the containers but the lady running the game had a fit and said that none of them counted and told us to leave. “Aw, now there is nothing on your little rule poster about not being able to do that.” Complained Randy. “We want our fish.” “No, it is common sense that you’re not allowed to do that, if you were I would have been out of fish in the first day.” The lady said. “Too, bad, you should have made a rule against it. But maybe you can once you give us our fish.” Hunter said. “Fine, if you leave ill give you each one fish, but you have to leave and never come back to my game.” The lady said desperate. She bagged us each a fish and we all left. Hunter had his up to his face and was making fish lips at it, the poor thing HAD to be scared. Randy was doing the same and the rest of us just looked at them. We all went back to our seats and Hunter grabbed his bag and said that he would be back in a bit. He then looked to Randy and they both got up to leave. I asked them where they were going “hell,” they both said laughing. “Oh God, that cant be good.” Said Ashley concerned. “No, no it can’t.” I said with equal, if not more, concern.

Forgetting the two of them since there was nothing I could do I told the others that they could fight over who got to go next. The next group got up to leave and I prayed that they would not cause any harm to any one. The rest of us mostly listened to the bands and read or played games. The day was going too slow, and normally it goes fast since it was so fun. However since I was the only person keeping these guys from tearing up the park I was not having much fun. Hunter and Randy showed up about a half an hour after they left and had the biggest of all grins on. I sighed and wished I had stopped them from leaving. “Would you tell me the truth if I asked you what you two were up to?” I asked whichever of the two would answer me. “Try us.” Said Randy. “Ok, what were you two up to?” I asked hoping they would just say nothing. “Just a little redecorating.” Said Hunter like it was nothing. “OH MY GOD. What did you do?” I asked scared. “Go and see.” Said Randy proud. I got up and told them to follow me. I was going to have them close by so I could hurt them if it was bad. They followed like puppies that did something bad and their owner was about to find out. I walked all the way to the other side of the park, where the play gym was, I figured I would work my way back. As I approached the gym I had wished that I had just ignored the fact that they left. They had spray painted DX everywhere. They found this completely hilarious. I didn’t. I wanted to but I couldn’t. I was so mad and turned around to yell at them. Hunter took one look at my face, then in one quick move he grabbed my face and kissed me. “Don’t be mad!” He said after he pulled away, then he and Randy ran. God I wanted to be so pissed at them. But the whole kiss thing worked. It totally ruined any anger I had.

I walked pack to where we were sitting and noticed that a few of the vendors had also been claimed by the two. I just laughed. I told myself that I was going to start enjoying this day if it killed me. This was not part of my job description and I was going to quit anyway so I didn’t care anymore. How many times does a person get this kind of day. I was going to enjoy it. And I sure as hell was not going to let them win this battle. I decided to take another rout and buy a little supprise for all of them. I walked back to our seats hiding what I had till I got to the seats. Once I got there I hurried up and pulled out two cans of silly string, one for each hand, and sprayed everyone down. “There, that’s your payback!” I said laughing hard. I then pulled out my camera and got a picture of all of them. I ended up getting everyone in the group covered in the stuff. Everyone was trying to help everyone else get it off, and I finally had something to laugh about.

The day contined on with out many problems. A few people asked for autographs but this never was a big wrestling town so it was not a big deal. We all ended up talking about what being on the road was like and how things would change. Vince ended up showing up toward the end of the day to see how everything was going and we told him to stay for the fireworks. Once I had invited him to stay and he had accepted Hunter looked nervously at Randy who just shrugged. I noticed this exchange but I ignored it. Vince left to get his dinner and we all began leaving in shifts for the same thing. Once we had all eaten we decided to go play some more games before the fireworks. Everyone followed the rules and managed not to make anyone else mad, we had all won a lot too.

It was about eight o’clock and I told everyone that tey may want to start moving to the other field before it filled up. Once we had all gotten seated in the other field a few people went for dessert. Once they had all gotten back they complained about the lines and began to eat. (a/n: this is a real celibration in my town, and at about 7 or 8pm the park begins to fill up to the point of it being hard to even walk- the fireworks go off at about 9pm) At about 9pm the lights in the field went off and everyone began to cheer. They sent up the few warning fireworks to let everyone not sitting know they were to begin. I was sitting on the blanket when I saw John wisper something to Ashley. She shook her head yes and snuggled up to him. ----I had later learned what they talked about- “Ashley, I have spent the whole day with you, and to tell the truth I think im falling in love. Will you catch me?” He whispered. Ashley shook her head yes. They began kissing and talking about how great it would be to have eachother and how great it would be to be on the road together.---- They began to kiss and talk quietly. I watched them for a bit then turned my attention back to the fire works.

As I got lost in them I felt something on my shoulder. I turned to see what it was. It was Shawn’s hand. “Jessica, don’t talk for a minute. Im not good at this kind of thing. But I really think I love you. I want to get to know you so much deeper. Will you be mine.” I began to cry a little as he gave me a dandy lion. “I know its not a rose or anything quite as beautiful, but I didn’t want to take away from your beauty and I could not get a rose, but I want this to mean the same to you.” I continued to cry as he began kissing me. He left me up from the kiss and we snuggled to watch the rest of the show. At the end of the show all of DX stood in front of us and suddenly their pyros went off and they did the crotch chop right infront of EVERYONE. I busted out laughing along with everyone who knew what was going on. Everyone else just looked and shoot their heads discousted.

We gathered our things as the lights slowly came back on. Once we had everything and everyone we made our way to the bus. Once we got to the bus I told the driver that we would be better off to just sit till the parking lot filed out a bit. The traffic was always pretty bad after the fireworks. They actually had pocice stationed aroud the town to make sure everything went smooth. We all sat on the ground outside the bus playing truth or dare. The game was mostly truth since there realy weren’t many things to dare someone to do in a parking lot. “Truth or dare Hunter?” Trish asked. “Im gonna be a man, dare, gimme the best u got.” “Oh I will, you and someone you choose have to get completely undressed and run down to that blue car and ask them if they saw any clothes laying around.” We all began to laugh. “Ok fine, the other person I choose is you then.” He said pointing to Trish. “Well no, that’s not what I meant.” She studdered trying to get out of it. “You didn’t say that I could not choose you. Come on, whats wrong you too pussy to do it?” He asked. “No, fine.” She said as her and him began to get undressed. Ipulled out my video camer, this was just too funny to pass up. I began filming as they approached the car. The people had their windows down and Hunter asked them. “Exuse me, me and my friend were a little busy and somehow lost our clothes, did you happen to see them?” He asked. The lady in the passenger seat told him to fuck off and Hunter and Trish walked away thanking them for their time. The lady shook her head and rooled up the window. Hunter and Trish got back and got highfives by everyone and laughs as they put their clothes back on. The game continued and once the car lights died down we borded the bus and took off to the hotel.

Once we got back to the hotel Ashley was invited to join John and I was invited by Shawn to do the same. Since it was late and I would need to be there in the morning anyway and of corse since we both loved them we stayed.

July 5th

The next morning I woke up with a bad headach and was not looking forward to meeting with me and Ash’s lawyer. We scheduled to meet with him during our lunch break, we would both begin training new people to talk over our positions. The morning went rather slow as it always did, partly because no one got much sleep. A few people were leaving for home from the Fourth but supprisingly, most of the rooms stayed full. I didn’t have to teach Sam much since she mostly knew the job so I left a bit early to get Ashley, it would be much easier to take one car. We walked in together and talked to our lawyer Mr. Rinsfelt. He looked over both contracts not saying much and noted that they were both the same. A one year trial contract. Meaning that we had to commit to at least one year and that at the end of that year there would be a meeting between all parties to descous anything further. It also said that we would each get $400 for each show we appeared on, $600 for each match, and $800m for each won match. I was completely amazed at the amounts, I think Ashley was too. We had asked if he suggested signing them or not and he did. So Ashley and I left and I called Vince. I set up a meeting with him for about an hour later. I kept Ash with me and went back to the hotel to set up the conference room.

“So, I see you two are happy about signing.” Vince said with a large smile as he sat down at the table. “Oh, I don’t think you could ever imagine just how happy Vince.” I said. “No, no he couldn’t.” Laughed Ashley. “Do you guys have any ideas about a story like you would like to be in, would you like to be in one together.” He asked getting down to business fast. “We would love to be together.” Ashley said. “Yeah, and I was hoping for something with DX, that would be go great.” I laughed. “Hmmm, yes. Well we’ll see what I can pull off for the two of you.” Said Vince thinking hard. “Well in the mean time what are you two waiting for. Let’s see some signatures on those papers.” He said sounding as excited as we were. Ashley and I scrambled to get our names down on to the papers. Right in the middle of me signing my name I almost lost it. For some reason I was just now beginning to loose it. I was so overly excited that I was finaly in, and it was faster then I thought.

After signing I drove Ashley back to work and continued to mine. On my way I decided to go to a nearby lake and try to collect myself before I got back to my job. Once I got to the lake I felt like spending some energy so I began to walk along the path that went the whole way around the lake. As I was walking I felt my phone vibrate. “Hello?” I answered. “Hey, where did you disappear to?” The man asked. “Who the hell is this?” I asked not recognizing the voice. “I cant believe you don’t know your own boyfriends voice. Oh, im hurt.” Shawn said with mock pain in his voice. “Oh, im sorry hun. I guess im just not used to you calling me.” I had no clue how I didn’t recongnise his voice. God o LOVED that drawl. “And im just not really all here right now.” I explained. “Aw, is something wrong, what happened?” He asked. “Oh nothings wrong. I just signed the contract, and believe me I am more then happy with how my live has changed over the last few days. Im just trying to get used to the idea of being away all the time. And leaving everyone here.” I said. “Ok, well where are you, ill come find you and we can talk.” He pleaded. “Im at St. Vincent Lake. Come out of the hotle parkin lot turning down 30 and turn onto 119 then go to the first red light and turn left then go to the first street on the right and take it. You will go around a bit of a sharp bend then you’ll be here.” I gave hium the directions then we hung up. I figured it would take him about 10 minutes to get here, it was not far from the hotel at all, so I began walking back to the front of the lake so he could find me. It was the middle of the day so there was almost no one there, maybe one or two people, so I was not too worried about meeting Shawn here. Not only that, but I have always loved it here. It was where I have always come to think. It seemed like this lake held all of my memories for me. So it had always helped to come here to sort things out.

Shawn had finally gotten there and to my supprise he was driving Sams car. I gave him an odd look as he was crossing the street to meet me. “What are you doing with her car.” I asked confused. Sam loved her car and I knew she would not let anyone drive it, especially someone she hardly knew. “Oh, she gave me it.” He said clearly holding something back. “Bullshit. I know that’s a lie. Where do you have her tied up at?” I asked. “Nowhere, I asked if I caould borrow it to come see you here and she gave me the keys.” “Shawn, I may love you but I know your liying about this.” I said. “Well I had to sign everything she owned including something about me sleeping with her if I wrecked.” Shawn explained laughing. I laughed with him. “How did you get my number anyway?” I asked finially realizing that I forgot to give it to him myself. “Well she was helping someone else and I had Hunter look it um in her book.” Shawn said proud of himself. “You had Hunter go through her purse?” I asked amazed at how they did crap like that all the time. “Yeah, pretty much.” He laughed. “Why did you need Sam’s car, I thought you guys rented one?” I asked. “Wow, your just full of questins today aren’t you?” He asked laughing. “The guys took ours somewhere. Something about Vince wanting to talk to us.” “Then why aren’t you with them?” “Well because I wanted to be here with you.” He said hugging me. I just smiled and hugged him back. “So now its my turn for some questins. Why all the questions?” He asked. “Lets go for a walk.” I said and began my way back down the path. He walked back up to me. “Why did you avoid my question?” He asked. “Shawn you have to understand something. My last relationship with a guy was not all that great. Him and I did not do well together but I could not get out of it because the minute I tried he slapped me. So I stopped trying. And everyother one of my relationships were much the same. Some with the violence, sme without. Needless to say, I have quite a few trust issues. So I tend t ask a lot of questions, of those around me and of me myself. I just cant trust anyone or anything.” “Jess, I love you. A LOT. That will never change. And let me tell you that I will be the first guy to treat you like the great woman you are. I would never treat a woman like a dog. And I think men like that should have it turned around on them. While their in jail.” “Thank you, Shawn. But please understand that it will take me a while to be able to trust you. And it has nothing to do with you, or how you treat me. I love you too but I cant allow myself to trust anyone yet. Please stick by me I would love to be able to trust you.” I said looking at the ground as I finished, ashamed at myself for doing this to him. He took my chin in his hand and raised my head to that I was looking at him, “baby, take your time, I will be right there with you.” I looked into his eyes and somehow knew he was telling the truth, and I began to cry. He took me into his arms and we stood there hugging. We began walking again not saying a word until we were about half way around the lake and he started to speak again. “Well I was adding it up in my head and I think im still intiled to a few more questions.” He said with a grin. “And what would those be Mr. Michaels?” I asked as he pushed me into a bush and ran. I ran and caught up to him again and hit him. “Ok, first how did that bush like you?” He asked trying not to laugh. “Oh it loved me. Everything with leaves tends to love me.” I said arrogantly. He laughed and asked his next questin. “So how does it feel to be the newest WWE diva?” He asked shoving a fake microphone in my face mocking an interview. “Well I don’t think word could explain what im feeling right now. I the most beautiful diva, and I have the most beautiful man in the back. What else could I want. Wit let me take that back, I want that title. But don’t you fear it WILL be mine.” I said continuing my arrogance. “Well dispite your overwhelming arrocance we will continue this interview, ill just make you pay for it tonight. Do you have a name and character set up for yourself?” “Mr. Michaels, I don’t think you could handle me. And I have some ideas about both but have not decided for sure just yet. Vince is to get back to me.” I said. “How about a storyline? Has anything been set up?” He asked. “Now who has all the questions? No, no storyline yet he is to get back to me on that as well. Now, if you don’t mind I have better things to be doing.” I said walking away fast. Shawn sped up to get beside me again. “Cant handle you. Is that right.” He said as he grabbed me and gegan kissing me roughly and would not break it. Finally he broke it. “Well I think that proves it.” He said in a victorious tone. “Oh I let you do it. If I didn’t want you kissing me, believe me you would not have been able to.” I said arrogant once again. “Yeah right you tease.” “Beleve me, you don’t want me to be a tease.” I said. “Maybe I do.” He said equally as arrogant now. “Have it your way.” I said and ran the last few steps to my car and drove off. I ended up kicking up quite a few rocks. I took off up the street and turned the left toward and area I knew I could get him lost in. Now I had my mustang, which had a lot of power, however Sam’s car was a Ferrari Enzo, I know I dono how she got it either. And I knew that my stang had no chance. So my only choice was to loose him. I soon heard him behind me and took the turn. I knew this area too well and knew I could loose him if I could get away frm him. The problem with getting away from him was not just the fact that he was in a faster car but the fact that he had one of his own and knew what he was doing and how to handle one. My ONLY advantage was the fact that I knew the area so well.

So I choose my path carefully, I wanted to make sure to take roads that could be driven easily because I didn’t want to wreck or have him have t live up to sleeping with Sam. So that limited me as well. I decided t take the only road I knew that stuch to all of that, which meant going about three miles from my job then coming back toward it. Because I also wanted to avoid the hiway and perhaps a ticket, which we would probly still get. So I went on my way and soon found that he was nolonger behind me. I was happy about this because I did not want him to see my next turn or else he would have me. I was able to take the turn and as far as I knew he didn’t see anything. About 20 minutes later I was back at the hotel and he was nowhere in sight. I wasled into the lobby with the biggest grin on my face. I noticed Sam watching the door. After Shawn did not walk in Sam jumped up, ran to the door and looked for him. Once she didn’t see him she whipped around and faced me. “Where the hell is that man of yours with my car. I knew I sould not have given it t him.” “Chill Sam, he’ll be here.” I said laughing as I walked away.

With Ashley and John....

Ashley had gotten off work today to see how the new guy would do without her. They asked her not to get into anything big incase they needed her back. So she came right back to the hotel and found John sitting n the couch watching TV. She walked up behind him, since he didn’t notice her there, and covered his face with her hands. John noticed the feel or her hands and the scent of her perfume right away but acted supprised anyway. “Guess who?” She asked cheerful. “I dono.” He said mocking fear. They both laughed as she pulled her hands away and sat next to him. “So, what are you doing home so soon?” He asked. “Im on call for the rest of the day to see how the new guy does.” She said. “I see. Then you really cant get into anything?” He asked disappointed. “No, I can pretty much garentee that I will get myself into something anyway.” She said with a grin. “Good.” He laughed the disappointment now gone. They sat there watching TV a bit longer then John suddenly turned the TV off. “I find you more interesting to watch.” He said with a seductive grin. “Oh really?” She asked teasing. “Yeah, realy.” He said getting closer to her. They began kissing, slow at first. Then as things became more heated they sped up. Soon cloths began falling off and not far after that they got into a heated game of their own. Once they had finished they showered then got dressed and layed on Johns bed for abut 20 minutes before they both decided that they were realy hungry. They left and headed to the bar.

Back in main lobby…

About a half an hour later I was sitting at the desk working with Sam as a rather pissed Shawn walked in. Sam looked up and ran over to him. “Where the hell were you. Where is my baby, you wrecked it didn’t you. I knew it. I should not have given it to you. God you men are all the same. I want my damn keys. And you can forget the sleeping with me thing, cause I don’t want it.” Sam said irate. “Sam, calm down. Your right about not sleeping with you because I did not wreck the car. However I doubt ill be sleeping with anyone tonight because some of us are bitches.” He said throwing an evil look in my direction. I just smiled not even looking up. He handed her the keys and she ran out to examine her car.

Shawn walked over t the desk and began t drum his fingers on it trying to get my attention, I ignored him. “I got lost ya know.” He said. “That was the point.” I said. “That was not nice at all.” “I know, but it was my turn for how you have all been treating me.” “We didn’t get you lost on purpose though.” He said trying not t laugh now. I walked around the desk and got infront of him. “And just what, Mr. Michaels, are you going to do about it?” I asked arrogant again. I was realy close to him and in his face. “This, Miss. Hunter.” He said with a wicked grin and grabbed me pulling me to him. He held me tight and kissed me roughly again. “Oh God get a room would you?” Sam begged. “You know, Miss. Hunter, we could. The guys are out and the room would be ours.” I gave him a big smile and we walked off. “By the way Sam, your welcome for the gas and the wash.” Shawn said over his sholder. I saw her look confused and trying to figure it out as we disappeared into the elevator. We began kissing again in the elevator and the doors opened to reveal Ashley and John waiting to get on. Shawn and I stopped kissing long enough to ask where they were going. “The bar.” John said. “We are hungary.” “That kind of behavior will do that to a person.” I said to Ash grinning. She knew exactly what behavior I was talking about. “If you two see the other two guys could you tell them to stay out for a bit?” Shawn asked all of a sudden becoming the one pleading and nice. “Sure Shawn.” Said John smiling. “We have a good thing here.” John said as they disappeared into the evevato. “We sure do.” I heard Shawn whisper to him. I smiled and followed him to his room.

We entered the room and found it somewhat of a mess. I began to laugh, knowing just how it got that way! Shawn plopped down on the couch and began watching TV. I walked over to the bar and poured us both a drink. I took his to him beginning mine on the way to the couch. Shawn took his from me thanking me and smiled the sweetest smile. I was truly beginning to think that I may just be able to allow myself to fall in love with him. If he continued to act like this I don’t think I would really have a choice as to fall in love or not. I sat beside him and continued to sip at my drink. He left the TV on at Sponge Bob. I gave him an odd look and he just began laughing. We seemed to get closer each time he flipped the channel. Soon I found him and I kissing soft. I loved the way he kissed. Weather it was rough or soft or playful, I knew he meant it and I loved the way it always made me dizzy. I could tell he loved me but I still could not get myself to the point of being able to love him back. I realised that it had only been two days but it bade me mad that I was unable to love him that way he loved me, I felt that I was being un fair to him.

So after coudling on the couch kissing nonstop we decided to join the rest of the gang in the bar. I had a bit of payback for a certain wrestler anyway. We walked into the bar and sat at the booth where Ashley and John were, the other two had not shown up yet. We sat there ordering drinks and laughing while Shawn and John told stories about the company and being on the road. About an hour after Shawn and I joined Ash and John Hunter and Randy walked in. They were both somewhat dressed up, in dockers and long sleeve shirts. They joined us as well and ordered themselves drinks. At the end of the night Ash and I decided that we would go home so that we could get things ready, we wanted to be able to leave whenever Vince said so. Ashley and I still had full beers, as planned, and we began walking out of the bar. The four guys went first since we were leaving, Randy was the last of the guys. They all turned around to say good bye and Ashley and I looked at eachother and smiled then reached our arms with the beer above Randy’s head and spilled bother full cups of beer over him. He stood there with his eyes closed for a few seconds then opened his eyes, whipped his face with his shirt, took it off and an evil grin crept up to his face. “I suggest you run.” He said very serious. “No Randy, you will not do a thing, and Ill tell you why, you spilled beer on us a few years ago, this is payback.” “When?” He asked yelling. “RAW, June 5, 2006, remember that?” Randy shook his head and Ash and I began running to the car, he followed. The three of us left Hunter, Shawn, and John laughing histerically.

Ash and I were once again able to loose a wrestler in our hometown and got home without him catching us. However about fifteen minutes later there was a knock at the door and Ash and I hit the floor. We began laughing. A few seconds later I opened the door to reveal all of DX. Ash and I laughed even harder. They came in and sat down and I got us all some drinks, non alcoholic mind you, we were drunk enough. We sat in our living room talking about what shows we had been to and how long we had planned the revenge on Randy. And a bit later there was another knock and I answered the door yet again, this time it revealed the McMahon family. I welcomed them in and excused what we were all wearing. We had planned a sleep over type thing and were all dressed for bed watching a movie. We all got up and sat around the dining room table. “I am sorry for showing up like this. But it was a late decision that I made and I thought you would all like to know right away.” We accepted his apology and he continued. “I met earlier today with Hunter and Randy and have been told that they would love to have the two of you join them on TV and on the road, in fact I have been begged. What do you say?” He asked. Ash and I looked at each other and smiled and said “we would love to” at the same time. Vince smiled and there were handshakes and hugs all around. “They I guess I will have to book two extra seats on the plane and you will be leaving with us tomorrow morning.” Ashley and I showed the family to the door, once the door closed Ash and I started screaming. DX was amazed how loud we were. “Well if you can’t beat them, join them.” I heard John say as they all began screaming as well.

We got back on the coutches after another light drink and continued to watch our movie. We talked through almost the whole movie and barley slept all night even though we went to bed early. Even after I got to sleep I had dreams all night about becoming a full time WWE diva, I was so psyched.

The next morning I got up realy early and got a shower. I then finished packing and then proceded to make breakfast for everyone. I had to clean out the fridge anyway. People started waking up and taking their showers one bye one. Then came to the kitchen to eat. I pissed everyone off by making them wait for the rest but they lived. The last out of bed was a grumpt Hunter, I was not surprised to find him not a morning person. We all ate and the guys left for the hotel to pick up the rest of their stuff and Ashley finished packing. After we got the car ready we locked up and drove off to my moms place. We had called our moms that night before and told them the good news and they were going to meet us at my moms place to say goodbye. Ashley drove her car and gave it to her mom to run it everyonce in a while and also dropped off white fang to stay until we could figure out better arrangements. We called the guys from there and told them to meet us there. We all hugged and cryed a bit then took off. For the first time our dreams came true, and we were heading to Philidelphia for our first RAW…

Monday July 11th, 200****- Our First RAW

Our entrance as WWE divas was great. We were sitting in the back and were making over Edge like he was the hottest thing in the world. Well DX saw this and flipped and took us aside and told us that they had so much more for us then him. We got big smiles on our faces and wraped ourselves around Shawn and John as we all waked to their dressing rooms and you heard Randy say “groopies” and Hunter shook his head.

We didn’t want to be known as groopies but as the year wentr on the storylines got better and we ended up being the bait for most of their jokes. We also got quite a few matches since we always got involved in theirs. We also ended up with a great schedule where Ash drove the morning and early noon hours and I drove the night and late noon hours. It worked out great for us and we had a blast.

Two years later we were still with DX on TV and still with our men on and off TV. Ash was even looking toward getting married in a month and I was finally able to fully trust Shawn and we were doing great. Hunter and Randy both found a few women on the way but were having a great time being free.

Three years Ash and I were both married and we were still with DX and were going just as strong as ever. I had an IC match at Wrestlemania and Ashley was the womans champion.

The end
