"Anna, wake up. It's time to start getting ready. Joe and Jacob will be here in 30 minutes." Tyler said shrugging my shoulders. I groaned. The warmth of the bed made me not want to get out of it.
"What time is it?" I asked yawning.
"It's 4:30 in the morning." Tyler answered.
"4:30 in the morning?! Why the hell are you waking me up so damn early?!" I shouted. Tyler covered my mouth with his hand and shushed me, "Shhh! Dude, my parents and brother are still sleeping you idjit!" Tyler said annoyed. At this point I didn't care, if I had to be up this early, then so is everyone else!
I covered my head again. Tyler stood up and yanked the covers in an attempt to get me out of bed. Ha! Joke's on him! Annoyed, he did the unthinkable! He lifted the mattress with full force and sent me flying. My head hit something hard.
"Whoa! Ow!! Okay you win! I'm up! I'm up!" I said rubbing my head. Tyler just smiled in triumph and headed towards the kitchen.
So in case you're wondering why in the world we are up so early, I'll fill you in. We are wrestlers. We've been in Florida for the past 3 years training in NXT. We finally got the call to join the main roster at WWE. So we're back in good ole Lubbock, Tx to spend some time with our families and get the rest of our belongings. The guy named Tyler who rudely threw me out of my warm bed? Yea he's part of it too. There's four of us actually. There's Tyler, Joe, Jacob and myself. My name is Annaleigh Halliwell. Tyler and I have been best friends since I was in fourth grade and he in sixth. We've been inseparable ever since. Joe joined us later on in our high school days. Tyler and Joe clicked immediately but I can't say the same for Joe and I. We have a love-hate relationship. Jacob joined us around the same time Joe did. Jacob's the rational one, the peacemaker, the quiet one. He brings a nice balance to the group. Not alot of people understand our friendship or how we're so close, especially in NXT, but it works for us. We all fell in love with wrestling and decided to follow our dreams. The boys formed the faction The American Outlaws. In NXT, they ruled the ring; a very dominant force. They don't look like much but don't underestimate them. I wrestle in single matches. I wrestle both Divas and Superstars. I also valet the boys from time to time. Although I'm not always with them, I consider myself an Outlaw.
When creative for WWE saw my videos that were sent to them, they wanted me immediately! They felt that I could change the tide for the Divas division, which I plan to do, but I couldn't leave my boys. It was all of us, or none of us; a pact me we made years ago. Now, Creative wants us all.
I sat down to join Tyler for breakfast when Joe and Jacob made their appearance.
"Oh man! I'm so pumped! Time to kick ass and take names!" Joe yelled excitedly. His rare upbeat attitude annoyed me.
"Dude, you are WAY too happy this early in the morning! Shut it!" I said annoyed.
"Aww poor wittle Anna! She woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning!" He teased. Squeezing my cheek.
"More like tossed on the wrong side of the bed." I said glaring at Tyler who just laughed.
After breakfast Tyler and I had a few more things to pack while Joe and Jacob loaded up the rest of the furniture.
"Done!" I said laying down on the floor to rest for a few minutes.
"Everything ready to go?" Tyler asked poking his head in the doorway.
"Yep." I said satisfied.
12 luggage's, 2 1/2 make up bags, a loaded Chevy, and 2 U-Hauls later, we were ready for our long journey ahead. We hugged Tyler's family goodbye. Mrs. Stone teary eyed embraced me and wished me the best of luck, along with Tyler and her 2 other "sons". Tyler's family pretty much adopted all of us. We stayed over almost every night and weekends. I must admit that I'm going to miss them dearly.
Tyler and I loaded up my belongings in his truck. We would be traveling partners while Joe and Jacob drove the U-Hauls.
"You ready?" Tyler asked beaming. He knew my answer already but this was one of our things we do when we're about to share an experience.
"On your mark." I answered. He took a deep breath and started the truck. We pulled out of his driveway and waved one last time at his family. He looked in my direction and stretched his arm out with a fist formed. I smiled and bumped it.
"This is it Annaleigh. All of our hard work has led to this.."
"Yep. Everything we've fought, bled, and cried for is a few miles away." I smiled.
"You think we'll do good?"
"I don't ever think. I just do. Yes we will be good. We're going to be the change, Tyler. I know we will! We're going to be legendary. People are going to remember us long after we're done with WWE... They'll have to." I said confidently.
Tyler gave me a look that only he and I understood. I took a deep breath and inhaled the crisp morning air. We were on our way to our new journey. Our moment is now!
