Trust Comes First (A WWE Fanfic)

Chapter 85 I've Got Faith

Monday Night RAW

RAW was underway in Little Rock and I was restless in the locker room. I had no match tonight, all the other Diva's vying for a spot to take the titles from Nikki and I. Instead of wrestling I was going to stand with Shield as they signed the contract for Wrestlemania and the Elimination Chamber. The nerves were getting to me as I thought about everything that could go wrong and I knew the boys could see it on my face. They were dressed to go but I stayed in my street clothes, the title resting on the bench next to me. I had a black tank corset tank top on under a black and red leather jacket. The black skinny jeans I had on went down into my red slouch boots, the only splash of color on me. I wanted to keep the black to keep matching with Shield even though I wasn't wrestling.

"What's with the face?" Roman asked from across the room, adjusting his black gloves.

I shrugged, feeling a little panicked as scenarios ran through my head, "I just can't think about anything good right now." I admitted, my hand tracing my name on my title, "Punk, Kane, AJ, Kofi, the Wyatt's. They all hate me and I don't know how far they're willing to go to hurt me."

"Come on, the last thing you should be worrying about is everyone else. Tonight will be fine and we'll just get this done and over with." Seth reassured me, wetting his hair down.

"Ya ok I got this." I nodded, hair bouncing around my face, "We should go soon."

"Just relax. Everything is gonna be fine." Roman held my shoulders as we exited, walking towards the entrance.

I had my title on my shoulder, in the front for once, my anxiety making me walk fast. I trailed my fingers against the cool wall as we made our way to the hall right before the exit. We could hear the commentary and we knew we were on time for once. I glanced to my side seeing Dean, rocking from foot to foot, an anxious expression on his face. His match had been moved from tonight to Smackdown on Thursday and I was glad for that. I knew that the boys were itching for a fight tonight, I could feel it rolling off them in waves. I glanced at my bare hands, wishing I had taped them even though I knew they wouldn't let me fight. I heard the music start and Dean went first and I followed instantly, feeling Roman's hand against my arm. The slight touch kept me calm as we walked out, hearing the crowd erupt. We moved quickly, seeing the ring set up with the contract sitting on top. The announcer was still in the ring as Dean jumped over, holding out a hand for me, his face serious. Taking it I jumped, swinging my legs over and landing nimbly on my feet. Seth launched himself over, landing on his feet next to me, sharing a look with me. There was no way I would be staying out of the ring for this one and I reached up, grabbing a rope. Pulling myself up I ducked under the second rope, hearing the whistles and catcalls, smirking to myself. There was a table and 6 chairs sitting there with the contract sitting with a pen on a clipboard. The announcer looked nervous as Dean grabbed the mic from him, holding it between his palms, tapping the top. Seth picked up the contract as Roman stalked around the table. I stood in the middle of the ring, my face more serious than ever before.

"Tonight is historic," Dean began, looking around at the crowd, "Tonight is the last time you will see the Shield and Evolution in the same ring on RAW!"

Deans voice was loud and angry as it bounced around the arena. Roman grabbed a chair walked to the rope and threw it over, making it bounce before settling near the ramp.

"Because believe me, at Wrestlemania, one team isn't just going to be eliminated from a match," Dean continued, tapping on the mic, nearly drowning his own voice out, "One team and that team will be Evolution. Believe me that team is gonna be eliminated out of this business, off the face of this earth forever!"
