Wrestling One-Shots Six

LA Knight

It's well past midnight on the road up through rual Geargia. You've been on the road for about four hours now, grinding your teeth and mumbling to yourself in frustration. Roughly five hours ago you were in the middle of a meeting With your fellow GM, Adam Pearce, and a few others regarding Wrestlemania coming up when you received the most peculiar call.

Shaun Ricker aka LA Knight, both one of your employee's and your longterm boyfriend, has been arrested for assault and trespassing up in Georgia.

"That motherfucker is in so much trouble." You mumble to yourself as you pull into the precinct that you got the call from.

You head inside like a woman on a mission and make your way to the officer at the front desk. "Hello, ma'am. What can I do for you?" The officer asks you when you come up to her.

"Hi, yeah. I'm here to bail out my idiotic boyfriend." You explain. "Shaun Ricker? I got a call a few hours ago that he was being held here?"

The officer nods and types a few things out at her computer for a moment. You sit and wait for a minute before the officer finds the information that she needs. "Ah! Here we go! We got your man on trespassing and assault, ma'am." She explains. "Right this way, I'll take you to him." She gets up from her desk and gestures for you to follow her.

You nod and follow the officer through the precinct and back to the holding cells. You spot Knight leaned back in his cell, head against the wall with his eyes closed.

"Mr. Ricker!" The officer goes up to the cell and fishes her keys out of her pocket. "Your girlfriend is here to bail you out." She announces.

With a hand on your hip you watch Knight open his eyes and turn toward the cell door. "YN, darlin'!" He grins at you and rises to his feet. "I knew you'd come get me eventually." He winks at you, arms out in front of him still locked in the officers cuffs.

"Stop talking." You snap at your boyfriend as he steps out of his cell.

The officer shuts the cell door and fishes her other set of keys out of her pocket. She uncuffs the braclets off of Knight and puts them away. "You're free to go, sir." She steps out of the way.

"Thank you, officer." You nod at the officer before grabbing Knight by the arm and dragging him out of the building.

You drag Knight out to your car in silence. You both climb inside the car and sit for a moment before you start it up again.

"Are you mad at me?" Knight speaks up after a lengthy silence.

"Oh, mad doesn't even begin to describe it." You grit your teeth.

Knight nods, knowing that he's fucked up and you're pissed at him. "Okay. Let me have it." His lips crease into a line as he waits for you to start berating him.

"What the fuck is the matter with you, Shaun!" You raise your voice, trying to focus on driving. "It's less than a week before Mania! And you go and do something stupid like this?!" You fume. "I was in the middle of a damn meeting! Do you have any idea how bad it looks when I have to step out of one of the most important meetings of the year to take a call and find out one of my employee's has bee arrested for assaulting one of my other ones!?"

"I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking." Knight rubs the back of his neck. "Thank you for driving up here to come and get me." He adds.

Your angry expression softens a bit of Knight's apology. "Come on. I wasn't going to let you rot away in there. It'd make me look bad. Both as your girlfriend and your boss." You sigh.

"Why don't you let me drive?" Knight offers in a soft tone, regonizing the bags under your eyes.

"Don't try and butter me up!" You scoff. "I'm still angry at you." You insist.

Knight bows his head and sets a hand on your arm. "Darlin', I'm not trying to do anything." He insists. "You drove all the way up here after you've been at work all day. You're tired. Just let me drive, please." He asks you again.

A sigh escapes your lips and you find a place to pull over to switch spots with Knight. He take over driving and you take some time to answer emails from your co-workers about everything going on.

"Great! That's just great." You grumble to yourself when you receive an email that you were dreading.

"What's the matter?" Knight glances at you briefly.

You huff and shake your head before typing out a few words. "They want me to suspend you." You glance over at your boyfriend.

"Well, I do sort of deserve it." Knight shrugs. "I'll take any punishment you dish out to me. And I won't complain." He assures you.

You shake your head, still typing your reply out on your phone. "After all the trouble your ass has caused me?" You roll your eyes. "Hell no! Your ass is going to work Mania night 2 against AJ and you are going to finish whatever this beef is." You insist.

"Whatever you say, darlin'." Knight nods. "Does your two boytoys know about my little run-in with the law?" He asks you, just trying to make conversation and lighten the mood at this point.

"Pfft. Who do you think paid your bail?" You laugh. "Cause it certainly wasn't going to be me. Not in full anyway." You joke.

Knight laughs with you and your anger about the whole situation begins to fade away. A few hours later the two of you finally make it back to your apartment so you can get some rest. Knight takes a shower and you finish up a few more emails before you can't fight your exhaustion anymore.

Knight returns from his shower and joins you in bed. "Did I mention that I was sorry for making you drive so far to get me? And for getting you into trouble with your bosses?" He scoots over to you.

"You did, yes." You nod and set your phone down on the nightstand. "It was kind of half-assed though." You add.

"Well then let me make it up to you." Knight replies and leans down to place a kiss on your neck. "I'm sure that I can find a way to make the trip worth your while." He grins against your skin.
