Request by JenniferMGallon

Hope you'll like it❤️ Im not too familiar with Shotzi and Damian since I haven't watched NXT in a while so I had to do a little bit of research on them before writing this. I really did my best on this one and hope its good!

_______________

Shotzi pov,

I returned to my locker room mad as hell, that bitch Candice LeRae had cost me yet another match by interfering. She always seemed to be one step ahead and it frustrated the hell out of me. I just wanted to squash that pixie so bad but I knew I couldn't, I knew that I had to wait and get her in that ring if I wanted to make her pay. That did however mean that I had a lot of pent up anger inside of me at this point.

Before I could get to the female locker room however, I got stopped by none other than Damian Priest. 'Oh great, here we go again' I thought to myself as I rolled my eyes.

"Sorry about what happened out there Shotz, maybe grabbing some food together will help?" He suggested with a half smile.

Damian had been asking me out for weeks now but I kept turning him down and this time would be no different. "Food won't help me squash that stupid pixie and besides, still not interested Priest." 

"Oh come on Blackheart, give it a chance." 

"I don't have time to deal with this, no means no." I told him before continuing to the female locker room.

-

"You seem more pissed than usual when the pixie interferes." My good friend Ember pointed out the moment I walked in.

"Yeah got held up by Priest. Asked me out again." I sat down and pulled my casual clothes out of my duffle bag.

"And let me guess, you turned him down again?" She guessed, which earned a nod from me. "I really don't get why you wouldn't give the guy a chance Shotz. He's nice, handsome, actually puts in the effort to ask you out and its not like you two got nothing in common." 

I rolled my eyes at her "If you like him so much why don't you just date him yourself."

"Well one cause I'm still happily married to Matthew and two because I'm not the one he's asking out all the time." 

"But honestly Em, why would I? He's 10 years older than me." I pointed out.

"Which would be still fairly normal these days. He won't chase you forever girl, and if you don't take him off the market there are plenty of others who would be happy to."

"Like I told him Em, I don't have time to date now. I have to focus on crushing the pixie."

-

A few days after my conversation with Ember I was called into William Regal's office to discuss something, what that something was I didn't know.

"Shotzi, come on in." William smiled at me once I got to his office. He was a good boss and everyone on the NXT roster respected him a lot.

"Whats up?" I asked as I took a seat in one of the chairs.

"It has been brought to my attention that you would like a match against Candice LeRae and I think it's a splendid idea. How does next takeover sound?" 

"That sounds great actually, I'd be happy to take care of business at takeover." I smiled as this was exactly what I had wanted.

"Fantastic, I'll let Candice know. Save the fighting for Takeover though." 

-

Takeover happened a few weeks later, I was excited for the match and had really saved the fighting for this match. Damian hadn't asked me out again since that last time after Candice made me lose that match, I guess Ember had been right on him not chasing me forever but it was probably for the best anyway.

The energy in the arena fueled my drive to destroy Candice as much as I could and I started to gain a lot of momentum after about 15 minutes into the match. Which was when, of course, Indi Hartwell, Austin Theory and Johnny Gargano decided to interfere in the match.

I tried to keep my focus on Candice but the 3 other members of The Way started to work on my nerves. So at one point, when I had knocked Candice to the ground I started to try and chase them away. Unfortunately that failed miserably as I got struck with a chair to my back which, to my annoyance, wasn't seen by the ref as Austin had him distracted and looking away from what Candice was doing.

Now let me tell you that those chair shots aren't exactly fun. unlike what many people though, the chairs were as real as the ones they sat on at home.

Suddenly the chair shots stopped though and I looked up to see that Ember had knocked out Indi and was pulling the chair out of Candice's hands.

What surprised me more though was that Damian was out here as well. Taking on both Johnny and Austin in an attempt to get them away from the match. 

With the distraction on the outside and the ref re-focussed I quickly took my opportunity to go for a roll up pin

3 seconds later the bell rung and I left the ring to go stand with Ember and Damian. I smirked and laughed at Candice as the announcer announced me as the winner by pinfall.

-

After I had taken a shower I went looking for Damian. I figured I at least owed him a thank you for having my back during that match. I had already thanked Ember for the same thing back in the locker room.

After a few minutes I found him and called out to get his attention "Priest"

He looked up as soon as I said that "Shotzi."

"Look I wanted to come and thank you for helping me out back there, that was very nice from you."

"No problem. Would have been weird to not help when a match I suggested gets interfered." 

"Wait, you mentioned that I wanted to fight her to Regal? Why did you.." 

I got cut off by his lips suddenly pressing on mine. I couldn't believe he was kissing me and what shocked me even more was the fact that I was actually returning his kiss. I never thought it would feel so good and in that moment I felt stupid for having turned him down all this time.

After a few more seconds Damian broke the kiss "you said food wouldn't help you deal with the Pixie so I figured this would. Think you have time for that date now."

Instead of replying I just kissed him again. I would definitely make the time to date him now and not that I'd tell him this but I liked persistent men. And Damian had definitely been persistent in wanting to take me out.
