Only My Lunatic Fringe

Chapter 2: Drinking

Make me happy by pressing that star.

I go into my hotel room and put my title on the dining table and just stare at it.

Wow, I'm actually the WWE Woman's Champion. This is like a childhood dream coming true.

I go to the shower since I'm still very sweaty and the hot shower instantly cools me off. I step out and lay on my bed in just my towel.

I'm way too lazy now to actually get dressed and that moment with Dean is still replaying in my head.

He is normally so closed off. He only talks to Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins  and a few other Superstars, but he keeps his interactions limited. We had the occasional hi and all, but never a conversation. So why?

Probably because you bumped into him?

My subconscious comes through to me.

I'm cut off by my thoughts when my phone rings. I check the caller ID and its Nikki.

" Nikki?" I sort of ask.

"Look, Kat we're at the hotel bar so come down to celebrate your victory, and I won't take no for an answer!" Nikki shouts and hangs up....

She hang up on me?

I decide to get up and dress into a black ripped skinny jeans, with a gray tight crop top showing a lot of cleavage, cause if you have it, why won't you flaunt it?

I also wear a black leather jacket. And I pair that with my black laced ankle boots. My hair is curled and for make up I add mascara, black eyeliner and dark maroon lipstick.

I look in the mirror and my outfit looks relatively good.

Time to get drunk!!!
***

I enter the bar/club and immediately see Nikki and the girls dancing in the middle of the club. I go to them and they spot me fairly quick.

"Hi Kat, I'm soo happy for you!!" Brie says and pulls me in a hug. She and I are friends, but not as close as Nikki and I though.

"Thanks Brie." I say and pull away.

"Kat, you made it!" Nikki shouts and sort of slurs on her words.

Yep. She's already drunk.

"Well, since everyone else is already a bit tipsy, I need to catch up." I say to the girls, and they cheer me on while I'm just shaking my head and walk over to the bar.

"Hi! Can I get a beer please?" I ask or more like shout at the bartender, since this music is super loud.

I plop down on the chair and instantly the barman hands me my bottle beer.

"Thanks," I say and down almost half of the content.

"Woah, easy there tiger. We wouldn't want you to choke." Roman says with a chuckle.

"I'll manage," I say with a smile and finish the bottle.

"She actually puts us to shame, man." Seth, who just arrived here, adds.

Dean, however is just staring at me with an unreadable expression. I stare back and soon it's a full blown staring contest.

"Barman," I say without breaking eye contact, "bring me another beer."

"Make that two."  Dean says also holding the contact.

Eventually Roman and Seth stands up to go dance and that takes Dean's attention.
