Trust Comes First (A WWE Fanfic)

Chapter 22 Back On The Same Page

4 hours later.

I was in a cab, heading to the arena and I was getting pumped, ready for tonight. I didn't have a match tonight but I was going anyways, ready to stand in the ring with Phil as he went against The Shield. I was anxious to see him and as I pulled up and paid the driver my face was flushed. I had all my makeup on and my hair was still pulled up. Taking it down I let it curl around my shoulders and I raked my hand through it, framing it around my face. My makeup was dark and smoky as I was still wearing my clothes from this morning. Opening the door I dragged my bag along, not knowing which room Phil was in. Turning a corner I spotted Nikki who saw me instantly and ran for me.

"Thank God your back! Did you see what happened with Punk and the Authority?!" she shrieked, nearly taking out my eardrum.

"Yes I did. That's why I'm here. I'm going out there to back him up." I announced, rolling my bag into the locker room.

"No actually I don't think you are." Brie winced, using the remote to raise the volume on the TV.

Walking next to her I looked up, seeing Stephanie and Hunter standing with Phil in the middle of the ring. All three of them had mics and I frowned, crossing my hands over my chest waiting for them to start. Steph of course raised the mic to her mouth.

"So Lila just arrived in the building..." she began, getting interrupted at the crowd erupted into cheers.

"Ok enough people." She snapped, glaring at the crowd, "She doesn't have a match tonight so I'm assuming that she is here to have your back in your match tonight. What she doesn't know and I assume she is watching now, is that she is not allowed in this ring. If she comes out you will be automatically disqualified." Stephanie announced, a sick grin on her face.

"That slimy son of a bitch!" I exclaimed, my face livid as I stared at her smug face.

Steph was about to walk out of the ring when she turned back to look at Phil with a wicked smile on her face, "By the way Punk I'd watch out for Dean Ambrose tonight. He might be extra riled up since we are in his hometown."

"Good luck on your match tonight Punk." Hunter smirked before walking out of the ring.

The camera cut a close up of Phil's face and I could see the slight flicker of worry. He watched Steph and Hunter walk away before it cut to the match details.

"So Cincinnati there you have it! Lila has been basically banned from the ring while Punk's match is on. Will she for once listen to the Authority or risk Punk's match on a long held grudge against Roman Reigns? Stay tuned and find out." Jerry announced, his voice shaky with excitement.

"Lila what the hell are you going to do?" Brie asked, her phone clutched in her hand.

"I don't know but I need to see Punk." I decided, leaving my bag there and walking out, turning to head towards the stage.

I must have just missed Hunter and Steph and I was thankful for that. I wasn't sure what I would do to the Queen of WWE if I saw her in this mindset. As I came up to the gorilla Phil was just walking out. He spotted me and his face lit up like the 4th of July.

"Oh man it is good to see you." He admitted, lifting me off my feet.

I saw a camera filming and I knew we were being relayed out on the screen. Putting on my mask I hugged him tight before he put me down. I knew he spotted the camera and kept his Punk persona on. Running a hand through my hair I put them on my hips and faced him, a frown on my face.
