The blood curdling scream that came from my lips had to send Nick’s heart to his feet. As I was being ambushed by some monster with its own mind I could hear Nick screaming my name. As I hit the ground all I could hear was Nick’s laughter. I had to have looked like a mess sitting on the ground with my head in my hands. My smart ass had walked onto an underground fountain! I screamed out when the water came shooting up from underneath me unexpectedly.
I sat there absolutely drenched, shaking my head and laughing softly. I knew that Nick was standing close by, I could still hear him laughing. Now it was getting closer though. “Are you ok? Other than being wet?” Nick laughed as he held out a hand for me to take so I could get up. “Yeah I am fine. Thanks hon.” I said taking his hand and standing up. I pulled him into a wet hug as I apologized, “I’m sorry Pinkie. I shouldn’t have gotten angry at you for an innocent kiss.” “It’s ok. I promise.” He said kissing my cheek. As he pulled away he screamed. The damn water was back! We ran through the water until Nick stopped. “Come here.” He said softly pulling me to him. He wrapped his arms around me and started to slow dance with me, while hell was spraying at us from below. It was very sweet truthfully.
We stayed there dancing for a few more minutes, until the water stopped trying to kill us. We defeated that crap! “Back to the hotel?” Nick asked taking my hand as we started to walk. “Yes please. I would really love a shower and some dry clothes, preferably my pajamas.” I said laughing.
**3 days later**
It was Tuesday night and that meant 2 things in my book. Smackdown taping and I was going home tomorrow. I was passed ready to see my kids and sleep in my bed. Luckily Smackdown was over now and I was back in my hotel room.
I had just curled up on the couch to watch a movie before bed when there was a knock at the door. “Lands sakes! Who the hell is it?!?” I hollered at the door as if it was going to answer me itself. I opened the door to see Nick, Layla and Curtis on the other side. “We wanted to see you before you left tomorrow.” Layla said letting herself into my room. “We even brought movies.” Curtis added walking into my room too. “What is this? Everybody invade the photog’s room night?” I asked laughing. “Can I come in? I have snacks.” Nick asked innocently, holding up a grocery bag. “Of course.” I said pecking him on the cheek and grabbing the bag. “Pretzels! Score 1 for Amanda!” I hollered out as I made my way to the kitchen in my suite.
The 4 of us had been watching Shutter Island. Let it be known that I loathe scary movies! Somehow I was stuck between Layla and Curtis, no idea how that happened, so every time yucky stuff happened I all but climbed into Curtis’ head. Everybody was laughing at me, so I was forced to start throwing the only ammo that I had. My pretzels. All that caused them to do was laugh harder. Jerks. I sure showed them when I silently walked to the kitchen and got some caramel sauce in a squeezie bottle and made my way back to the living room. “Hey guys, can we take a picture together?” I asked sweetly as I slide the bottle in my robe’s pocket. “Yeah. No problem.” They all agreed. I knew what I was going to do as soon as they said that. I went to my room and got my tripod and camera to set up. When I got back into the living room I set everything up and told them what to do. “Ok, I want the 3 of you squatting down in front of me, I will stand in the back. I need all the help I can get hiding my fat, so I don’t want any lip.” I playfully told them as I directed them where to go. Oh this was going to be EPIC! “I’m going to set the timer for 10 seconds and have it take a few pics.” I said as I fiddled with my equipment. When I got to my spot behind them I brought out the caramel squeezie bottle to show the camera. Click. I opened it and turn it on its side. Click. When I turned it all the way over, I squeezed it for all it was worth and fast that way I got all 3 of them, Nick, Layla and Curtis, before they could figure out what happened to them. CLICK! My crazy face included in that photo. The one thing that I did not figure that they would do was exactly what they did. When Curtis snapped to what was happening he grabbed my robe and pulled me down there with their caramel covered bodies! All 3 of them rubbing that crap all over me. Click. Well hell, my plan back fired. But at least I have the photos of a lifetime.
After our caramel fight was over everybody decided to go to their own rooms to clean up. Layla was still laughing when she left. Leaving me alone with Curtis and Nick. “I had fun sweeties.” I said as I ran my finger in some of the caramel on Curtis’ face, licking it off of my finger. “Me too doll. Better go shower.” Curtis said planting a quick kiss on my lips. What is it with guys kissing me today?!? Really? When he was gone I turned to Nick grinning at him. “I will say, you look so yummy covered in caramel. Who knew?” “Haha, funny bunny. I’m sticky now. What was that with Curt?” Nick questioned me. “Hell if I know. Maybe all the sugar went to his head.” I answered, seeing something spark in his eyes that I hadn’t seen up until just now. “You may be sticky…” I said as I walked up to him and playfully licked his face and fingers to get some of the mess off of him. “But at least you taste good!” I said trying not to giggle. Damn it. There is that word again, giggle. UGH! When I licked his fingers I swear I heard him growl. “Are you trying to kill me woman?” he asked in a deeper voice than normal. “No sir, just trying to help a little.” I purred. 2 can play that game. “Well, I better go hop in the shower.” “Don’t fall my caramel covered cupcake.” I said batting my eyes. “I will be careful. You be careful too darling. I will see you in a few weeks. Have fun with the kids and tell them I said hi, will you.” “Of course I will.” I say. Now its my turn to kiss him softly. We both pull away and lick our lips, laughing at how sweet it is because of all the sugar in the caramel sauce. “I will see you in a few weeks darling.” Nick said as he kissed my hand and walked out of my hotel room.
