Trust Comes First (A WWE Fanfic)

Chapter 42 AJ & Whispered Secrets

    Phil didn't say a word as I walked away, heading to our, well, Phil's locker room. I was so angry as I shoved everything in my bag and walked out. I headed towards the Diva's locker room, title gripped in my hand. I knew something bad would happen tonight and I was right. Walking into the room Nikki and Brie looked up eyes widening when they saw me.

"Is that locker still available?" I asked, standing in front of the door.

"Of course." Nikki nodded, coming to link an arm with mine, "Are you ok?"

"I am not okay but for tonight I have to be. I'll worry about all this tomorrow." I shook my head, opening my bag, "I just need to focus on my match against AJ"

Nikki nodded, putting her hat on her head. Brie was on the couch and I could feel her looking at me. I knew they wanted to know what happened and I sighed, abandoning my bag.

"I'm not hanging out with Shield." I blurted out, seeing the relieved looks on both of their faces.

"Oh thank God." Brie breathed, a hand on her chest, "So what was that all about then?"

"So when I told you in Chicago that I stayed with a friend it technically was the truth." I started, hating that I lied to Nikki, "The only thing was that the friend I stayed with was Roman."

"You stayed with Roman for the two days you went missing?" Nikki gasped, face paling.

"I had no choice. He would have found me anywhere I would have went. The last place he would ever think to look for me..." I tried to explain, Brie cutting me off.

"Would be with Roman. That's a pretty good idea but Lila still. Don't they all stay together?" she questioned.

"Ya they do. It was fine. We kept it civil and it was just till I figured out what I was going to do." I explained, pulling out my wrestling clothes.

"So now what are you going to do?" Nikki questioned, as I stood up.

"I have no idea but I'll figure it out. Until then I have a match to worry about." I shrugged, walking away.

Lila vs AJ

I had my title resting snugly on my waist as I walked down the hall. My match was coming up soon and I was still furious. I was taking the anger with me to the ring, ready to unleash on AJ. My hands were taped and I shook them at my sides, trying to stop the shaking. I looked up, groaning when I saw Roman walking towards me. I had managed to avoid everyone by staying in the woman's locker room but my luck had apparently run out.

"Lila you got a minute?" he asked, stopping me.

"Not really Roman. I have a match against that manipulative little slut." I snapped, glaring at him, "Plus I'm not really in the mood to deal with anyone from Shield."

"I'm not talking to you as someone from Shield Lila. I'm trying to talk to you as Roman." He sighed, holding onto the straps of his vest.

"What do you want from me Roman? Why do you insist on talking to me when you came out there earlier hell bent on destroying me and Phil?" I snapped, throwing my hands up in frustration.

"We didn't want to do that but the Authority..." he tried explaining.

"The Authority." I spat, distaste coloring my voice, "You still can't see what they're doing and yet it's right in front of your face. You would have never thought of hurting anyone like that before yet there you are intentionally rubbing Phil and AJ in my face."
