Evie did the Raw show, she was a little quieter than usual however being new the crowd just assumed that nerves had gotten the best of her and she would return back to the lovable Evie they expected soon . She left the show waving back to the crowd, going straight to the empty wardrobe room. Evie got changed, allowing herself to think about the interview.  How Rhea was right and she didn't deserve the job, she didn't know anything about the company and she shouldn't be there. Evie thought about giving up. 

She sat on the floor, wiping her makeup off and completely in her own world, until the door opened. 'Occupied' she said, not picking her head up and continuing, assuming the person would walk away. Instead she heard a loud sigh followed by a familiar voice 'You again'. Evie looked up to see Rhea, putting the makeup remover down 'I can't do this, I'll leave' she said about to stand up. 'Well you are good at walking off' Rhea said, 'And ill stay' Evie remarked, continuing her process. 'Whatever' Rhea said, pulling some clothes out of a bag in the corner of the room and walking over to the changing room. 

Evie finished wiping off her makeup, and walked over to Liz's little skincare section, which she told Evie she could use anytime. The makeup wipe making Evie's face dry she decided a moisturiser would be nice, 'Now she's got her grubby little gremlin fingers on things that aren't hers' Rhea snarked, waltzing out of the dressing room with her ring gear in hand. 

Evie turned round 'Seriously, what is your problem with me. What have I done to you' Evie turned around, looking over Rhea who loomed over her. 'What are you whining about now' Rhea laughed. 'Seriously tell me your problem or fuck off. I am so fed up of you making my life hell' Evie shouted, turning to Rhea. 'You just waltz in here without any training. I can tell you now, your going to enjoy your little road trip then miss your family and be back home within the month. You don't deserve to be here' Rhea explained, refusing to look at her. 

'What. None of that makes sense. You hate me because I don't have any experience' Evie questioned.  'No I hate you because this isn't a job or a life choice, this is a break from reality for you and once it gets boring you will leave and go back to your sad little life. You will realise your parents aren't horrible and you don't actually have anything to rebel against' Rhea explained. Evie turned to look at her. 'I get it, you think I will abandon the company after I realise what I had isn't as bad as I thought. No, I don't have amazing parents that I miss and did everything for me growing up, I was the reason their lives were so miserable and they simply aren't bothered about my future. I didn't realise the significance of a simple birthday card until my mum gave me my birthday present and said it was either I have it or it goes in the bin. I don't have parents that want to come and visit me every week, I have parents who send me all my stuff but make me pay for shipping because they finally want their spare room back, to turn into a fucking jigsaw room. I mean jigsaw's come on. And I have no where to put said stuff because I'm living out of a bloody hotel room' Evie said, realising she was probably having a nervous breakdown and also pacing across the room. 

'Your homeless' Rhea laughed, Evie confused 'How am i homeless'. 'We live in hotel rooms whilst travelling, however we have actual homes that we go back to, your homeless' she laughed. Evie stared at her delusional, taking a different approach with her and decided to agree. 'Yes i guess your right' she said. 'What's your plan then' Rhea asked curiously, making Evie smile in her head thinking her plan had worked, 'Wait for my pay check, see how much it is and go apartment hunting i guess' she answered. 'You never bought a house before' Rhea questioned. 'I'm 23 so no' Evie answered cautiously. 'I'm 26 and I have my own house' Rhea answered, not realising Evie had tricked her into treating her like a normal human being. 

'You had to though or else you would be homeless like me' Evie defended, 'No, first I rented out a room in peoples house, like uni houses kinda until I could afford to live somewhat on my own' Rhea explained. 'What do you mean somewhat, you said you berated me for not having a house' Evie asked. 'I own the house, I had a house mate and she moved out and i did not berate you' Rhea explained. 'Couldn't handle living with you' Evie assumed out loud. 'Broke her spine and had to move in with family so they could help her with things' Rhea countered. 'Oh, that's horrible' Evie said in response. 

'Well i will have to get quite a few pay checks before I buy or rent an apartment anyway, so ill be homeless for a while' Evie said to herself. 'And what are you going to do with all the stuff that your being sent over' Rhea asked, Evie impressed she was actually listening. 'Pay for a storage locker, I don't know I haven't got that far yet' Evie said, 'Like you said I've only been here two minutes' She continued. 'True, there's still time for you run back to whatever little country you came from' Rhea said, Evie silently laughing and shaking her head at the Superstars one little jab, knowing she couldn't just be nice to her. 'Right I'm going, I will see you tomorrow' Evie said standing up, earning a hum from Rhea in the corner, focusing on taking her makeup off.
