Becky's POV:

Ok, this was bad. Not 'oh well, I'll just forget about it' bad. Neither 'maybe people will just move on' bad. No, this situation was incredibly, explosively, apocalyptically bad.

Not only did she make a fool of her friends, not only was a big group of friends going to mercilessly tease her for a damn long time. No, there just had to be a video of it somewhere.

After completing her mental breakdown, Becky calmly asked: ,,Where. Is. The recording."

,,It's safe with us", Bayley answered. ,,Leah gave it to me, as she didn't want Bill to snoop around, find it and show it to anyone who wasn't there."

,,Ok, that's good.", Becky said while breathing out, trying to calm down. ,,That's great, now no one will find out, as long as no one blabs."

,,Girl, your secret is safe with us.", Sasha responded. ,,As for the guys, I don't think they'd want to feel your wrath."

,,You can say that again", Becky answered.

,,So we can be sure that if any of the guys can't come to training due to broken kneecaps, we all know who's a tattle-tale", Ashley joked.

Everyone laughed at this, Becky relishing the fact that she could already joke about it with her three favorite people in the world.

The rest of the day was spent resting and recovering. Ashley skyped with her family, Sasha was reading a book, Bayley was on Twitter and Becky continued with Netflix. All the girls were still quite a bit wasted, so there wasn't much discussion. The only time anyone spoke was while ordering room service in the evening.

After dinner, they all sat on the couch with blankets and pillows. ,, If any of the guys could see us now, all huddled together", Becky said. Her friends laughed at that, and then, after some debating, decided to watch some New Japan.

,,Wow, I'm really hyped for that match between AJ and Nakamura at Wrestlekingdom, aren't you?", Ashley asked.

,,You kidding?", Bayley said, raising an eyebrow. ,,They're only 2 of the best performers in the world, I'd never miss that match for the world."

,,Damn shame that both of them will never come to WWE though, Vince would never do something that sensible", Sasha said.

,,I know, what I would't give for AJ/Owens or Nakamura/Zayn, or... AJ/Finn", Becky said, the awkward tension quickly rising after uttering his name.

They then finished watching and went to bed at around 10 pm, as they needed to be up bright and early to catch their flight the next day.

Nighttime

Becky awoke to her phone buzzing annoyingly. She groggily lifted her head to look at the time. After being momentarily blinded by her phone's brightness, she noticed it was 5.15 a.m. She then sat up and walked into the main room.

Sasha and Ashley were already up and had begun to pack their bags. ,,Come on", the blonde said. ,,I need to meet Leah to give her something at the airport at 6.30, and I don't want to be late."

,,Geez, won't even let a girl get up", Bayley remarked, standing the doorway of her bedroom, rubbing her eyes.

,,Yeah, what is it with you and your punctuality?", Becky asked. ,,If anyone is off schedule for less than a minute, you immediately lash out."

,,Well, someone needs to keep this rag-tag bunch in order, am I right?", Ashley countered.

,,Whatever", Bayley responded while shrugging and getting to work.

Thanks to two showers, quick dressing and Ashley barking orders, they were all ready to go and fully packed at 5.15 a.m., with the Suburban, their long-distance vehicle of choice, waiting for them outside.

The half-hour drive was uneventful, with Ashley, who was by far the most energized in the morning, driving shotgun, while Sasha, Bayley and Becky were all trying to catch some zzz's.

After checking in their luggage and going through security, they arrived at precisely half past six at the Starbucks, where Eric, Bill and Leah were already waiting at a table.

,,Terribly sorry", Ashley said, shooting a glare at her companions.

,,No worries, you're right on time my obsessive friend", Leah said beckoning them to sit.

And so they had breakfast, Eric being noticeably quiet, until he asked: ,,Hey, what time's your plane leaving?" The three of them weren't flying together with the four girls.

,,7:30", Sasha said absentmindedly.

,,Cool, cool", Eric thanked, seeming very shifty while doing so.

When they had to go, they all hugged, signed a few autographs for a passing fan and the horsewomen went to the gate. After a long wait, which included multiple telling-off's toward Ashley, as she was nervously tapping her fingers, they finally boarded.

They all found their seats, which where luckily all next to each other, and relaxed, happy to finally head home.

But then, as Bayley was checking her handbag, she said, more to herself than them: ,,Ugh, where did I put that damn thing?"

,,Where did you put what, dear?", Becky uninterestedly questioned.

,,Nothing, I just seem to have misplaced the...Hey what the hell is this", she answered, pulling out a piece of paper.

,,Check your phone, Pam", Sasha read.

,,Ok", Bayley said sounding very confused. ,,Hey I've got a short video message... and it's from Eric." She gave the phone to Becky, who was in the middle then pressed play.

The video showed Eric and Bill standing alone, speaking to the phone, with Leah in the background, not participating.

,,Hey there Becky, as I suppose you're also listening", Bill started.

,,Looking for something?", Eric continued, holding up a little, black tape.

,,Oh Christ", Sasha said horrified. ,,Becky, that's the..."

,,I know exactly what it is", she said with wide eyes, feeling exceptionally nauseous.
