Best friend
Standing in the ring across from Dean with Roman in the middle was extremely intimidating. I don't know if I was shaking with nerves or fear. I knew this was just training, but going against Dean, even just for training, was making me extremely uncomfortable. Sure I had been practicing with Phil, but that was different. For instance, I wasn't dating Phil. So basically I'm being told what do by one of my favorites and was fighting my boyfriend. I knew Dean wouldn't do anything to hurt me, but that didn't help my nerves. He was extremely intimidating. Both Roman and him were. I don't know how their opponents did it.
"Alright so Dean tells me you were being trained by Aj and Phil before this?" Roman asked.
"I had a few lessons" i whispered.
"Good. Show me what you learned." Roman said crossing his arms across his chest.
Looking hesitantly at dean, i nodded and slowly made my way over to him so i was standing right in front of him. I adverted my eyes to the mat because just thinking of hurting Dean in any way was silently killing me. Hearing Dean chuckle, he must've sensed my uneasiness and lifted my chin so i was looking into his eyes. Smirking, he kissed me lightly on the lips and then whispered,
"it's alright babe. Do your worst. You won't hurt me. It's my job remember?"
Nodding, I got dean in the position for the black widow. When I had it locked in, Roman walked around us looking at everythign I was doing. Hearing Dean struggle just had me pull harder until he tapped. Letting him go, he immediately grabbed his shoulder and started rubbing it.
"Damn girl that actually really hurt." he said as he started stretching out his arm.
"You told me to do my worst" I shrugged.
"Good. Show me what else" Roman said.
Dean groaned and got back in position across from me as I smirked, "What's wrong darlin? Did i hurt you?"
dean shook his head and said, "Now don't get cocky now. This is the only time you're gonna ever get hits in on me."
"oh yea? then i better make em count" i laughed causing him to smirk deviloushly.
After about an hour of running the ropes and practicing smaller moves, Roman decided it was time for larger tricks.
"You're doing great Cec, lets just practice one more thing and then call it a day." He said causing me to nod.
"How would you feel about learning how to do the spear?" he smirked.
My eyes widened as excitement filled me,"Yea! that would be awesome!"
He chuckled at my reaction and then turned to Dean, motioning with his arm to get ready.
"Man seriously?" Dean groaned.
Roman chuckled,"C'mon suck it up and take the spear like a man"
Dean groaned again causing me to chuckle. Running a hand through his hair, he walked by me and whispered only so i could hear,
"i'll show you a real man later"
Feeling my cheeks turn a bright shade of red, Dean smirked and got in position to take the spear from Roman.
"Alright, the trick is to keep your opponent in the middle of your line of sight so it makes it easier if they try to move to the left or right. Also keep your eyes focused on the abdomen alright?" Roman explained.
nodding, he continued to explain, "also don't have your hands out infront of you, wrap it around the waist and tuck them so you don't hurt yourself."
nodding again, he smirked and then turned back to dean. Dean braced himself as roman speared him right into the mat. Once both men hit the mat, the crash vibrated around the whole gym. Roman got up and smirked down at dean who was groaning and holding his stomach. Roman chuckled,
"alright since your boyfriend seems to not be able to take anymore"
"shut up!" Dean groaned.
roman and I both laughed and then roman turned serious and motioned to me with his arms,"spear me"
"what?" My eyes widened.
"spear me" roman smiled.
"I....I.." I stuttered nervously.
"just do what I showed you" he said calmly.
taking a deep breath, I nodded and readied myself. Roman braced himself across from me as I concentrated fully on the move. I couldn't do this wrong on him. This was his move. Closing my eyes, I centered myself and became focused. Opening my eyes, I let all my nerves subside and I ran full force running right into him. It felt like hitting a brick house as I somehow managed to bring roman to the floor. Immediately standing up, I was breathing heavily as I looked down at the man on the mat smirking up at me,
"That was great."
"really?" I asked excitedly.
roman chuckled while getting up,"yea it was perfect actually"
dean an had gotten up on his feet as well and stood next to me with a proud smile on his face,"you did great"
"if you keep picking things up like this, Seth doesn't stand a chance" roman smiled.
a wide smile spread across my face as I hugged roman tightly. Hearing him chuckle as he wrapped his arms around me and said,
"that's enough for today. We will pick this up again tomorrow"
pulling away way from roman I smiled and nodded excitedly.
"well I'm going back to the room and getting a shower!" I smiled and dean grabbed my hand as we made our way back to the hotel.
once in our room, dean closed the door and gripped me around the hips. Smiling, I wrapped my arms around his neck.
"you know it was pretty hot when you speared roman" he whispered.
"it was was it?" I smirked.
"hell yea" he smirked and lowered his lips onto mine.
the kiss was by far the most passionate and the most heated kiss we've ever shared. Butterflies filled my stomach as my hormones flared. Feeling dean grip the bottom of my shirt, my nerves set in and I pulled away. Now don't get me wrong, I wanted him just as bad, probably worse, we were both breathing heavily as I smiled nervously at dean,
"I'm going to take a shower. I'm all sweaty" I giggled.
"alright, I'm gonna go pick up some food. You want anything?" He asked.
"no I'm good. Thank you though!" I smiled and pecked his lips gaining a smile from him.
i watched him leave as I went and picked up some clothes to change into after the shower until I heard my phone ring. Rummaging through my bag, I grabbed my cell and saw the phone lit up with Mariah's name across it.
C:hey! How's the family
m: Cecily! Oh my god are you ok! I came back home and found the apartment completely destroyed!
C: I'm fine. I'm with dean now.
m: you always were great at getting yourself in shitty situations. WAIT!? You're with dean!
c:(chuckling) yes I'm with dean
m: in what way!?
c:we might be dating
m: oh my god!!! Why didn't you call me!
C: I'm sorry I've just been busy.
m: I guess I can forgive you seeing you have a freakin bounty on your head.
c: (sighing) I miss you girl
m:I miss you to.....(crash in background)
c:Mariah what was that?
m:I don't know
hearing the worry in my best friends voice. Another crash could be heard in the background of the call. My heart pounded when I heard Mariah whimper in fear.
"oh my god cec! I think someone's in the apartment!" She whispered frightened.
"Mariah get out of there now. Call 911!" I exclaimed.
mariah was freaking out on the phone and I looked back at the door hoping dean would come back in and know what to do. I felt completely helpless as I tried to calm her down,
"Mariah listen to me ok. Go into your bedroom and lock the door and hide."
"Cec I'm scared." She whimpered.
"I know you are but you have to listen to me ok? Stay quiet" I said.
"ok, but..." She was cut off when a bang sounded in the background and it sounded like her phone was dropped on the floor.
my heart felt like it was going to bust out of my chest as tears fell down my face as I screamed, "Mariah! Mariah!"
nothing. the silence was killing me as I waited hoping my best friend would pick up the phone. Finally after what felt like forever, noise came from her end of the line as the phone was being picked up.
"Mariah?" I asked, but my friend didn't answer.
instead a sadistic laugh I knew all too well came through the phone,"hey Cecily"
my heart dropped as I became frozen to the ground,"Seth I swear if you lay one hand on her!"
"You'll do what? Get your boyfriend to come after me?" He asked.
"what do you want?" I gritted.
"you know what I want" he growled.
"you got your match with me at mania, what else do you want?" I growled.
"oh so much more. Now listen girly you will not pull one move on me at mania. Nikki go for , but me? Not one move and you will take whatever I give to you without defense. If you do? Well Mariah and your little lunatic will pay for it." He growled.
my breathing hitched as I contemplated any way out of this situation. This was a no dq match meaning he could do whatever with whatever weapon he wanted.
"Do we have a deal?" He asked.
fear overtook me but I whispered,"yes"
"good! See everybody wins here! Isn't nice when we all get along? Oh and by the way if you tell dean about this little chat, you may not be able to recognize Mariah the next time you see her" he growled And before I could say anything, he hung up.
feeling like I couldn't breathe, I immediately dropped my phone from my hand and fell to the ground in tears. First it was dean getting hurt because of me and now Mariah too. This was all my fault. What am I going to do?
