Chapter 6 - Manager

Sunday | Steve's Locker room

Today was the day, Steve would be having his number one contender match against The Undertaker in just a few hours. Today it seemed Steve and Rose's personalities had completely swapped, Rose was pacing back and forth in Steve's locker room as Steve was sat on the couch laid back. 

Rose looked over to Steve and couldn't believe he could be so relaxed right now. "Steve!" She said catching his attention. "How can you be so calm right now? Just a few days ago you were ready to have a heart attack and now you're acting as if nothing's going on?" She placed her hands on her hips putting most of her weight on her right leg and raising an eyebrow.

Steven laughed and shook his head "Rose you worry too much, everything will be fine. However. I do want you to stay back here for the match." His voice turned serious at the end of his sentence as he sat up resting his elbows on his knees. 

"What?! why?!" She said practically in a yell, standing straight up and glaring at Steve, she knew it was probably to keep her safe, but that didn't stop her from wanting to be there to help Steve from anything they're planning to throw at him.

"Because Rose, you don't know what they're planning. If they're actually planning to fuck me out of the number one contender spot that means two things." He paused for a second before continuing 

"One. They'll use someone to stop me, and you have no idea who they'll use. Could be Michaels, or Hunter, maybe even the Undertaker himself I don't know. But you know, that if they go after me, Vince won't hesitate to get them to go after you." Intensity grew in his eyes as he spoke. "And two, If Undertaker wins, that means that he's Michaels problem as the number one contender. Bet you Vince or Michaels didn't think about that."

Rose's eyebrows furrowed together, Steve was making some excellent points. "They must be so focused on trying to get me to be his manager, they didn't consider Taker being the number one contender. And you know how he gets when he's on his way for a championship."

Steve nodded with a smile "Exactly! but that's their problem.. My problem, is that you're going to be stuck with him. You know I won't be winning tonight. Cause Vine always get's what Vince wants." Rose furrowed her eyebrows.

"What's up with you Steve.. you usually don't give up this easily." Concern laced her voice as she locked eyes with Steve. This wasn't the hard ass she grew up with, she didn't recognize this Steve.

"Rose I can get the championship whenever I want, that's not an issue. But it's not like they can force you to be with Michaels 24/7 either. Manager's only have to be with their assigned wrestler in any event related to the company." He spoke as Rose narrowed her eyes. 

"Steve.. Shawn is the champion. His whole day consist of events for the company!" She stated in a matter-of-fact tone. Steve kept the conversation going but Rose wasn't really paying attention anymore, Still not sure why he was acting this way. Maybe he had a plan of his own, She'll never know until it happens.

Two hours later it was finally time for the match to take place. Steve demanded that Rose stay in the locker room and after a few moments of debate she decided to stay but Steve of course made her lock the door, She thought he was just being paranoid but Steve always had good intentions so she did as he asked. 

As Steven and Taker made their entrances the commentators began to wonder where she was, why hadn't she come out with Steve? If only they knew. Jim seemed to quickly pick on the possible reason why stating "Cause Vince has this stupid plan! Trying to get Rose stuck with that egotistical champion!" Rose couldn't help but laugh and nod her head at his statement.

Moments after the match began and Rose's heart was beating so fast she swore it would burst. looking for any sign of Vince or Shawn, she was quite surprised they didn't go down to the ring at the very beginning of the match, but she was going to be patient. 

The match went along just like any other match, Taker dominated most of the match which wasn't really a surprise to anyone but once Steve took over the match Rose was tense knowing this would be the opportune moment for Vince to do whatever he was planning to do. 

Moments later Hunter was running down the ramp, Rose sighed "Of course." she said softly, knowing Shawn was soon to follow, and as if on que there he was. Running down the ramp and into the ring, While they had Steve distracted Taker took advantage and tombstone'd him, and as soon as the ending began it ended. 

Rose was in shock that it was over that quickly, as she was looking down to the floor her mind was running in a million directions, until Shawn's voice broke the silence. "Oh Roseyyyy" Shawn called out. She cringed once more, she hated that name. "Now I know you're back there still in Steve's locker room so come on out and meet your new client. The camera then panned to the very door that separated her from them, the Stone Cold sign being the center of the frame. 

Hunter's voice was the next to speak. "Maybe she needs some motivation." Shawn then nodded as they began a regular beat down on Steve, punching, hitting, the usual. She wasn't really bothered Hunter got Steve in an arm bar along with Shawn holding a chair, she just couldn't take this anymore, much more worried about Steve's health than her own she got up and left the locker room.

The camera followed her down to Gorilla where a stage hand handed her a mic and she walked out on the ramp "There's my Rosey." Shawn said in his usual teasing tone. Rose didn't care much for it as she began speaking.

"Shawn, I'll leave the arena with you guys without a problem, but only if you leave Steve alone." The audience weren't too happy about anything that is happening and she expected it so it didn't bother her. "Just leave Steve alone, come up the ramp.. And we'll all leave."

Shawn and Hunter looked at each other and nodded, finally letting go of Steve they made their way up the ramp in front of Rose. Shawn smiled and wrapped his arm around her shoulder's turning her around as they walked backstage.

"Don't worry Rosey you're really going to enjoy hanging out with us, we do all sorts of things, especially party." Shawn said with confidence, the smirk plastered on his face.

"Perfect." Rosed spoke in an annoyed tone as they made their way out of the arena and back to the hotel. She had already booked a room for herself that morning in preparation of this happening.

Once at the hotel Shawn looked over to Rose "You can stay in my room if you like" he smiled as she rolled her eyes. "Thank you but no thank you, I booked my own room this morning. See you later." She said as she went to the elevator and up to her room.

Tomorrow was going to be a long day.
