*Alright Natalie...it's your first day...don't fuck this up...* She thinks as she walks into the WWE PC. *Wonder where Daniel is...*
As soon as she thinks his name she spots him over by one of the rings talking to Ivy and as of current writing her fiancé and still North American Champion Zayden Parker.
"Daniel!" She smiles as she walks over to him.
"Natalie! How are you?"
"Great! Just got my name so that's fun!"
"I see! Your name is?"
"Tatum Paxley."
*The FUCK kinda name is that? Don't worry about it Dan. Least it's not Chilly McFreeze or Micheal McGillyCutty...*
"Daniel? Earth to Daniel?"
"Sorry Nat! Zoned out a bit."
*She giggles before knocking him on the shoulder* "I should start training later this week!"
"That's awesome!"
"I know!" *She rolls into one of the rings*
"Ummm Natalie? What are you doing?"
"Showing you a taste of what's to come."
*Daniel is confused by this statement until Pax does:
"...Wow."
*Natalie smirks* "Impressive Right?"
"Woah now don't want Indi to be upset you jacked her nickname!"
*She shakes her head while giggling and rolling back out to stand next to Daniel*
"You're a nice guy you know that?"
"Eh I try to be considering my upbringing."
*Tatum tilts her head* "What happened?"
"I'd...rather not get into it right now."
*Something's up...*
"Anyways. I've been assigned to personally oversee your training because Shawn wants to offer me a coaching role for the rookies on weekends."
"Really? That's awesome!" *And more time for me to get to know you...*
"Yep!"
"Anyways...I'm sad this convo has to end now but I've gotta go put these bags down because god they are heavy."
"I can take 'em and we can walk and talk."
"Really? Thank you Daniel!"
"I may have baggage but I'm a nice guy."
*What in the world could that baggage possibly BE?!*
They begin to walk and talk getting to know each other better. And Tatum trying *key word trying* to pry open that door keeping Dan's backstory locked.
"Dallas correct?"
"Mmm hmm! Born and Raised!"
"So what did you do before getting to the WWE?"
"Well for one I did cheerleading at North Texas University, Go Mean Green! *She giggles*
Then I did some Iron Man competitions (A/N: She did post pictures on Twitter so yes this is a fact. Though I may have gotten the competition wrong.)
"And I'm also a powerlifter."
"Really? Awesome! How much are you able to lift?"
"Over 400."
"...that's both amazing and SLIGHTLY terrifying Natalie."
"It's not THAT bad Daniel. How I got these!"
"You know what? Fair enough."
*She giggles as they finally stop at the Women's locker room.*
*Tatum Sighs* "Welp. The end for now I suppose." *But before she heads in she stops* "Dan?"
"Yes?"
"Do you think I'll make it in WWE?"
"...Tatum I get this question a lot and my answer is always the same. Yes you'll make it. You just need the drive, dedication and time put into it for you to succeed. And Looking at you you've got untapped talent and potential in spades! So I have no doubt you're going to do BIG things in NXT and I can't wait to see it."
*Tatum Smiles* "Thanks Daniel." *She heads inside where Ivy's sat on a bench scrolling on her phone*
"I see you've been talking with Daniel a lot. Fast Friends?"
"Yeah! He's so nice and caring but he's not telling me some-why are you looking at me like that Ivy?"
"I think someone has a crush on Daniel!"
"Ivy I just met the guy. There's no way I'd have a crush on him-"
"Why are you blushing then?"
"Um...
"Okay FINE Maybe I like him! But what if he doesn't like me back?"
"Natalie...Zayden can attest because he knows Dan really well but Dan wouldn't hurt a fly. Okay maybe if the fly touched his motorcycle but other than that he's a wonderful person to be around! Plus...I hear he's single."
"Goddamnit Ivy...stop enticing me!"
"No."
"Uggghhh!" *She's right...go for it Natalie...you never know where Life will take you...*
