Wrestling One Shots/Short Stories

NSF - Preston Vance

"Okay, stop" I gasped holding my stomach hardly able to breathe I was laughing so hard "Okay, okay. I'll stop" Preston grinned leaning back in his seat with a content sigh "Ugh I don't know the last time I laughed this hard" I sighed smiling sweetly at the man across from me. "You worry about all of us too much. We can mostly take care of ourselves" he sighed turning his head to look at me "Barely. You guys can barely take care of yourselves" I shot back turning my head to look back at him "I mean we aren't dead yet, so someone is doing something right" he returned reaching over and grabbing my hand lacing our fingers together. "Uh yeah, me. Every week" I snorted jumping and screaming as a knock on the window scared me. "Jesus Alan. You scared the fuck out of me" I groaned smacking at the man as he opened the back door and climbed in "I wasn't sure what you two were doing in here. I didn't wanna just climb in" He defended himself flinching as I reached back to smack at him my hands quickly being grabbed and held still "Hey, easy firecracker, put the hands down." Preston laughed quietly pressing my hands back into my lap. "The boys wanna do some bits for the vlogs" Alan informed making me groan lowly, I hated doing bits for the vlogs anyway but I was not dressed for doing them today. "Pres" I pouted looking down at my sock-covered feet "You owe me" he sighed climbing out of the truck and moving around to the passenger side and turning his back to me so I could climb on before he shut the door and started walking us inside. "When was the last time you ate?" Preston questioned quietly making me grumble quietly "I've been eating." I stated simply not wanting to have this conversation with Alan around. "Don't lie to me Ducky" He sighed easily swinging me around until I was hanging on his front "I ate dinner with you last night" I shrugged hanging onto him tightly as we walked "That was 24 hours ago" He stated seriously stopping in his tracks "I haven't had time" I shrugged slightly "You watched me eat lunch. We stopped and grabbed breakfast and coffee." he pointed out lowly "Alan, we'll be there in a minute, we're gonna run and grab some food from catering first" he said suddenly the smaller male continuing on his way with a nod as Preston turned us towards catering. After he watched me eat a small sandwich and a yogurt, through much protesting on my part, he carried me back to our locker room depositing me on the couch before he joined the guys to plan the skits. The night thankfully went by pretty quickly and soon we were on our way back to the hotel and heading to our rooms. 

"We need to talk Cora" Preston spoke quietly as we all split to head to our respective rooms, the biggest member following me down to my door. "Pres it's not a big deal" I sighed dropping my bag in the chair and jumping as the door slammed shut behind me "It is a big deal, Cora. You're starving yourself you could do some serious damage and end up in the hospital. You could" he stopped suddenly, the sudden silence making me turn around to see him staring at my midsection with a frown, my eyes going wide as I quickly dropped the sweatshirt I had been removing back down "Are you" he paused again "how long have you been" he shook his head quickly advancing towards me and pushing the cloth back up to reveal the ridges of my ribcage visible beneath the skin. "Why are you so skinny? How long have you been going without food?" he asked lowly, fingers gently brushing across the taut skin making me shiver slightly. Sighing heavily, I shoved away from him and paced to the other side of the room needing space to think and breathe. "You have no idea what it's like to be a female Pres. What it's like to be a female in this industry." I sighed again, crossing my arms over my chest, a reaction to being so uncomfortable. "If I even remotely look like I've gained weight it's all people talk about for weeks." I continued quietly "Drink too much water before a match, bloated, people comment. Eat too close to an appearance and the shirt looks a little tight, people comment. Bloated and carrying extra weight during a period people comment." I listed off pacing back and forth "Stand next to you and people comment" I snorted throwing my hands up "I didn't mean to. It started when TK had me doing all that press and photoshoots to promote everything, I just didn't have time, but then I started to notice everyone saying I was toning up, slimming down. I looked so good. And it just" I paused taking a deep breath "It spiraled out of control and now I can't stop. What I eat, how much I eat, how long I'll have to work out to work off what I ate, it's all I think about when I'm awake." I whispered turning to finally look at him, to see him staring back at me with a frown. "Come here" he ordered lowly, my heart thundering in my chest as I stepped closer, squeaking as I was pulled onto his lap and wrapped up in his arms.
