Friend Or Foe: Chapter 17 The Most Serious Of Situations
In the Last Chapter:
“Well, I guess that's cause you didn't tell anybody. So, are you guys like secretly dating now, like you and Matt did for a while?” Carmi asked pointing at me and smirking. I swallowed. “Um, no...” I trailed off, unsure of how to really explain it all. “What do you mean 'no'?” Carmi didn't sound too happy.
“No as in, no, you're brother and I are not dating,” I responded. She stared at me wide-eyed. “At all?” she asked. “We're just friends,” I said softly. “I'll be back later,” Carmi said, and walked off. I stared after her for a second then sighed and sat down on the grass.
After about fifteen minutes I stood back up and walked back to my house. I jogged up the steps to my porch and stopped when I heard yelling. “YOU KISS HER BUT YOU DON'T FUCKING ASK HER OUT!!!!! WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM SHANE!?!?!?!?!?!” Carmi was yelling at Shane. “Carmi, I couldn't...You weren't there... you wouldn't understand....” Shane was trying to defend himself. “I KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS SAID! TANNER TOLD ME THE WHOLE STORY! SHE WALKED IN WHILE YOU GUYS WERE KISSING AND THEN HEARD YOUR CONVERSATION AFTERWARDS!!!!! I GET YOU TWO! BUT GET PASSED THE FRIENDSHIP AND FUCKING TAKE HER OUT!!!!” Carmi was pretty pissed.
I opened the door and walked in, all yelling stopped. Shane stared at me and Carmi stared at the floor, crossing her arms over her chest. “I'm going to bed,” I told everyone who was in the room. Jeff, Shannon, Shelly, Shane, and Carmi stared after me as I jogged up my steps. I changed into an old pair of sweats and a blue camisole top.
I got into bed and pulled the covers up to my chin and rolled onto my side. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
So, it was Friday again and we were back on the road. Shane and I had continued on as if nothing had changed. But legions had changed, I could tell. I know he wanted to talk to me, but I never gave him the chance. I'd make up an excuse, tell him I had to be somewhere, start talking to Jeff, have to call Juli. Anything to keep us from having the conversation that we were practically doomed to have.
It sucked that tonight I didn't have a match. Michelle, Maryse, Eve and Maria did though. But it was a tag team match, so oh well. I had a match next week, against Michelle, thank god. But tonight would be Jeff's response to what happened on Sunday. I can't believe Edge is still a champion. John got screwed, that's all there is to it.
Well, other than that. Carmi was on the road with us now. So I had a girl to talk to since Maria wouldn't talk to me. She actually believed the rumors that I was dating four different guys, and she didn't want to be ascociated with a said 'slut.' My response to that; “look who's talking.” But Maria and I used to be so close so I stopped myself from insulting her.
I always thought she was crushing on Jeff, but I guess it was really John. Oh well. But if they ever wanted me to tag team with her, I would ignore what she's said about me for the greater good of the female devision.
At the moment I was sitting in the women's locker room, chilling with Brie Bella and Eve. They actually didn't believe the rumors, unlike everyone else, except Natalya. Natalya and I were good friends now. Victoria and I had been super close so when she retired Natalya started hanging with me and Carmi. Hence the close relationship between us. But Nattie was away at the moment so it was just us three.
We were all talking about this years Mania matches. Pretty much we were just predicting them. “So who do you think is gonna win MITB?” Brie asked. “Well, they haven't even started qualifications yet,” I said, giggling. “Well, who do you think is gonna be in the match then?” Brie rephrased her question. “Hmmm, um...” Eve thought about it. “OH! I know mine!” I exclaimed. They looked at me expectantly. “Christian, Punk, Kofi, Finlay, MVP, Kane, Kennedy, and Shane,” I said, smirking. “And who would win?” Brie asked, shaking her head. “Shane of course!” I said proudly.
We all started giggling. “Yeah, well I kinda agree with her, though I think either Christian or Kennedy would win,” Eve predicted. “I definitely think Christian or Punk, sorry Vi, but no Shane,” Brie teased. “Aw, shucks,” I sighed, snapping my fingers. We started laughing again but were interupted by yelling, well screaming.
I looked at my two friends curiously. They looked a little upset. “C'mon guys, let's check it out,” I told them, motioning for them to follow me. They did and we left the locker room. We were stealthily walking down the hall when I stopped at a corner and peered around it. I stopped and took a step back, running into Brie, who let out a surprised yelp.
Luckily, the people who were yelling didn't hear us. But I knew those voices anywhere. “Matt, you fucking bastard!!! I'm gonna kill you!” Carmichael Helms. Damn. I looked around the corner and watched, quietly. Carmichael and Shane were standing across from Matt. They all looked pissed. Brie and Eve peered around the corner too and were shocked by what they saw. They looked at me expectantly, but I just shook my head and waved my arms. 'Hell no!' I mouthed and they sighed softly.
I rolled my eyes, placing my hands on my hips then turned back to the scene. “First of all Matt, I thought you would be a good thing for Vio, but I guess that was wrong. Second, quit messing with her emotions. You obviously don't love her, so stop pulling her chain. Let her move on. And third, stop spreading fucking rumors about her. I don't know what's going on between you and Michelle, but it's disgusting and it needs to stay away from Violet,” Carmichael stated, sounding quite angry.
“Carmi, you should stay out of this. What happens to Violet is strictly between Shane and I,” Matt said, actually glaring at Carmi. Her eyes widened in surprise. “You did not just fucking say that,” she said in a low menacing voice. “Yes Carmi, I did, and you don't scare me. Neither does Shane,” Matt said then turned to Shane. “She obviously doesn't have feelings for you if you've already told her and you're not dating yet,” Matt said nonchalantly.
“I haven't told her yet,” Shane said softly. “And man, I can't believe you actually went and asked her out after I told you I had feelings for her. That was fucking low, Matt, even for you,” Shane growled and I couldn't believe it. Matt had asked me out after Shane had told him he had feelings for me. So everything was fake. Matt just did it cause he never really like Shane. Well, Shane always has been more of Jeff's friend, but still. I couldn't just stand there any longer.
“How long?” I asked stepping out into the hall. Everyone froze. Carmi and Shane turned to me, whereas Matt was already facing me. “What?” Carmi asked, confused. “Shane. How long?” I asked again. “Since I took you to prom, senior year,” he replied, knowing what I meant. “Holy shit.” Carmi stated, getting what I had asked. “You've liked her since you took her to prom. No way. How come I didn't find out about this until recently? I'm your fucking sister! I deserve to know this shit!” Carmi exclaimed, stomping her foot.
Matt rolled his eyes. “Oh please Vio, don't act like it's so surprising. Couldn't you tell?” Matt asked mockingly. No, I never could tell. I mean, I guess I figured he'd have a crush on me or something, but not for that long. I shook my head. “Shane, I'm not ready. For anything. For the sake of my sanity. We need to just stay friends. Please?” It all came out as a whisper, when it was intended to sound much stronger. Shane nodded, looking slightly disappointed.
But he knew staying friends would keep me happy and sane right now, so he obliged. Matt sighed, “I can't believe you won't even fight for her. It's so easy for any guy to come in and snatch her up. Kinda like I did back then. I even got her to keep it a secret from you,” Matt laughed bitterly. “Fuck you!” Shane yelled spinning around and lunging at Matt, catching him with a right hook.
Matt stumbled to the ground as Shane mounted him and punched his face. I stood there, frozen. “Carmi! Stop Shane!” A familiar voice yelled and then arms were around me, pulling me away. They sat me down on some crates and not until I felt one of them wiping away my tears did I realize I was crying. I looked up and saw Shannon, Jeff, Brie, and Eve looking at me worriedly. “Mama Bugga Bugga, are you okay?” Shannon asked, sitting next to me and wrapping me in a hug. I nodded numbly and leaned into his hug. “She's gonna be staying with you tonight Shannon. Don't let her out of your sight,” Jeff told him and Shannon nodded.
Jeff left and told the girls to leave me alone too, but nicely. Now it was just Shannon and I. “Baby Bugga Bugga, why do guys like to fool around with Mama Bugga Bugga and break her heart?” I asked, not expecting an actual answer, just needing to ask the question. “I don't know Mama, I don't know,” Shannon murmured, resting his chin atop my head. “No one ever knows,” I said, “it's unfair to my crumpled and stitched up heart.” I stuck out my bottom lip in a pout, making Shannon laugh.
“You always know how to make me laugh even in the most serious and sad of situations,” Shannon mumbled, hugging me tightly.
