Chapter Two
"Sawyer, Nova, wake up!" Veronica whispered, trying to shake her friends awake. "Mmm, five more minutes," Sawyer mumbled, almost inaudibly. "C'mon! We're here!" Nova cracked her eyes open, looking out the window of the plane, admiring the sunrise. Veronica finally managed to shake Sawyer fully awake, getting a low groan in return.
Sawyer looked out the window, hiding a mesmerized expression with a snarky comment, "I cannot believe you guys just woke me up to look at the sunrise." Veronica rolled her eyes at her friend's sarcastic response, turning to look out the window the rest of the flight. "Did you stay up all night?" Nova asked, stretching out the places she could. "No, I was asleep until about 5, then woke up because of the butterflies in my stomach," Veronica replied, smiling right after it. Sawyer turned to look at her, "The flight attendant gave you coffee didn't she?"
Veronica reached to hide the coffee cup that was given to her, "No, not at all."
"Ladies and Gentlemen, we are now landing in Jacksonville, Florida."
Sawyer, Nova, and Veronica all got up and stretched their legs. They picked up their belongings and made their way out of the plane, meeting up with Warhorse in the lobby. "Are you ready for your big night?" Veronica asked. Sawyer was still half asleep so she walked slower than the rest of the group. "I got it all under control, but you guys have to do good- or you could never get a call from Tony Khan again." "Well, thanks for the support, Jake," Nova said with a bit of sarcasm. "Don't worry you guys got this," Jake assured them. They all waited for their uber, so they could get dropped off at their hotel near Daily's Place.

"This bathroom is bigger than my apartment," Veronica said as she admired the fancy room they were staying in. "These small shampoo bottles are going to only cover an inch of my hair - I'm going to the front desk to see if they got any more," Sawyer complained, as she closed the hotel door and made her way into the elevator.
She pushed the first-floor button, and as the doors opened she was met with a muscular friend. "Sawyer? Is that you?" Wardlow asked, as he almost dropped the bottle of water he was holding. He just got done working out and was making his way back to his room. "Huh? OH- Hey...Michael." Sawyer awkwardly shuffled around him, trying to avoid his stare. "I haven't seen you in a while. Do you maybe want to go get lunch-" but the elevator doors closed cutting him off. Sawyer leaned onto the wall letting out a breath she didn't know she was holding. She wasn't ready to fully start talking to Wardlow again like nothing happened.
Sawyer pulled out her phone to Nova, almost dropping it from shaking.
Dude, you will not believe who was just in the elevator
...Who? I'm not a mind reader.
-_-
Tell me!
Michael. Fucking. Wardlow.
What are the chances?
Omg! Did you say anything to him?
Barely! He tried saying something but the doors closed. GOSH, it was sooo awkward :(
HA! See what happens when you avoid your problems?
🖕🖕🖕
"You won't believe what Sawyer just texted me." Nova laughed as she handed Veronica her phone. Veronica came over to read the messages, also making her laugh. "I knew it would be sooner or later they saw each other." Veronica jokes. "When did Tony and Kenny say we needed to head to the arena?" Nova asked. "At least by 5, Kenny had assured me last night before we got on the plane."
"KENNY gave you his phone number!?" Nova asked, shocked. "Oh, yea. He did, I forgot to tell you guys before we got on the plane." Veronica smiled, acting like this was nothing. "Oh my gosh! Oh my GOSH!" Nova started freaking out, and it didn't even happen to her. "It's not THAT big of a deal. He's my boss." She half lied.
"Boss huh...did you tell Sawyer then?" Nova queried, crossing her arms over her chest. Veronica looked back and forth from her phone to Nova, "Yeah, of course, I did...you think I wouldn't tell her?" Veronica replied, before thinking, "You're a liar. You're a lying liar who lies."
"Oh so you could tell her but not me?" Nova rolled her eyes.
"As I said, it's not a big deal. He is my boss, we're professional athletes." Veronica said.
"Watch you get all the opportunities for sleeping with the EVP of the company." Nova joked. Veronica threw up a middle finger behind her back and lowered it before she could look. Soon an out of breath Sawyer appeared in their room.
"That was so embarrassing. I can never go out in public again." Nova and Veronica laughed. "DON'T LAUGH- I almost made a complete fool out of myself, he was sweaty and his tight shirt was sticking to his body and..." "Ew, too much information." Veronica faked gagging at the very detailed description.
"Seems like Mr. Mayhem still makes your knees weak." Nova laughed. Veronica stifled her laughter and Sawyer groaned. "Get me when it's time to leave. I'm taking a nap and hope I don't wake up." she marched to her room and slammed the door. Nova and Veronica jumped before busting out laughing.
Time Skip
"Sawyer, drag your feet one more time," Nova complained, Sawyer was still walking slower than her friends. "I won't if you let me ride shotgun." Veronica turned around to face the two, "Um, Sawyer, it's your turn to drive." "What why?" "Veronica and I have been the drivers for the past five shows. You set up the system." Nova chimed in, happily walking to the back.
Sawyer groaned, walking to the driver's side of the rental. They all closed the doors, Veronica reaching for the radio. Sawyer started to pull out the parking lot, following the GPS to Daily's place. "When was the last time you talked to Micheal anyways?" Veronica asked, rolling down her window. Sawyer inhaled sharply, "Last time we talked was when I congratulated him on his debut." "November?" Nova questioned, surprised. "Yeah...I mean we just kind of stopped communicating." Sawyer said with a bit of sadness in her voice.
Veronica and Nova shifted uncomfortably in their seats, awkwardness filling the car. "Anyways, we need to focus on tonight. No distractions." Sawyer prompted. Veronica laughed, "You're telling me, that you will keep your sanity when you see Mr. Mayhem in that ring?" Sawyer opened her mouth to argue- but quickly shut it. "Worry about your problems." Nova laughed in the backseat. "Nova, why are you laughing? You need to stick with one man." Veronica shot back. Nova took offense to that, "Well then why don't you tell us about your late-night talks with Kenny Omega?" Sawyer almost crashed the vehicle, "You're talking to Kenny Omega, and you didn't tell me?!"
Veronica slouched down in her chair trying to hide. "I thought you already told Sawyer?" Nova asked. "She didn't tell me, but SHE TOLD YOU?" Sawyer squawked.
Nova and Sawyer started to quarrel, back and forth. "Guys! Guys! Stop, we can't do this now! It's our first night at AEW and we're already arguing." Veronica pleaded, making the friends stop. Sawyer turned back to the road, breathing heavily in and out. "Veronica you could've just been honest," Nova said, pouting. Veronica sighed, looking out the window, "I know."
"Yeah. Dinner's therefore on you tonight." Sawyer chimed in, trying to lighten up the situation. They pulled into the Daily's Place parking lot with a brighter mood. "I can't wait until we all get signed, so we don't have to split the bill a thousand times," Nova said. They found the closest parking spot and began to get out of the car. The argument in the car was long forgotten as they stared at Daily's Place. Nova smiled the hardest she had in a long time, as she pulled her luggage behind her. Sawyer and Veronica tried hard not to get too emotional, but knowing them they would laugh and cry about it later on. They followed behind Nova and finally made their way in.
"This place is a lot bigger than a high school gym." Veronica jokes. Nova was taking photos for her Instagram stories, and Sawyer tried not to bump into the thousands of people helping to set up the ring. "I never want to leave," Nova said as she took another selfie. Sawyer noticed that a lot of the wrestlers were giving them looks. "Have you noticed everyone looking at us? I'm so close to saying something." Sawyer mumbled in Nova's ear. She lowered her phone and looked around. Veronica gave them a confused look.
"Hey? Are you the girls from that triple threat match?" They turned their heads and saw an interested Dustin Rhodes asking them that question. "Depends.'' Nova began. "That match was awesome. We've all seen clips on the internet. You three got something. Welcome to AEW." Dustin let his hand fall for a handshake. Veronica was unsure at first, but then lowering hers as well.
Sawyer and Nova did the same as everyone else around them gave a light round of applause. Dustin had given them the heads up that they might want to stop into the EVP office before they got situated. They passed a lot of wrestlers on their way there. Running into almost the whole locker room.
Sawyer couldn't help but feel a little down as she didn't cross paths with Wardlow. Veronica on the other hand was starting to sweat at the thought of seeing Kenny Omega. It seemed like they had gotten comfortable with each other enough to call each other "friends." After what seemed like forever, they finally found the words "The Elite'' on one of the doors. Sawyer raised her hand to knock before it opened revealing a lively Tony Khan.
"Sawyer! So glad you're finally here. Come on in." He moved over to let them in. Matt and Nick Jackson sat on a couch while Kenny sat across from them busy typing away on his phone. Veronica's stomach dropped as she saw Kenny not even look in her direction. "Young Bucks. This is Sawyer, Nova, and Veronica." Kenny's head popped up finally noticing they had entered the room. "Veronica? Hey...I'm so glad you're here." He lightly smiled, making her turn her head to her friends who were looking at her with blank expressions. "Hey Kenny, remember us?" Sawyer said which knocked Kenny out of his trance. "Of course, I was very surprised by your performances; from each one of you."
"He's not lying," Matt spoke. "He wouldn't stop talking about you." Kenny blushed a shade of pink. "I know talent when I see it." He shrugged. Tony agreed. "Really blew every other match that night out the water. I can't wait to see what you guys bring to the table for AEW." Tony had told them everything they needed to know including inviting them to go to a local bar after the show later tonight. He made sure to give them the minor and major details before having to go check on everything else for the show tonight. Nick was the first to speak up, "Well if you three are any good as Kenny claims you are, I'm excited to see you guys in action." Matt nodded in agreement. "Your dressing rooms are just in the hall over," Kenny added.
Nova and Sawyer tried to contain the grins coming from their face, "Three ACTUAL ROOMS right?" Sawyer asked. "We promise." Matt crossed his heart. They rushed out of the EVP room while Veronica stayed back. Nick and Matt noticed as they cleared their throats. "We're going to go check on the other talents. It was nice to meet you." They smiled and sent a wink to Kenny. He ushered them out the door, before shutting it. "You never told me you talked so fondly of our match." Veronica put her hand on her hip, as Kenny chuckled.
"I didn't talk about the match that much." He walked over to sit on the couch, with Veronica following him. "What do you mean? They said you loved our match." He ran his hand down his face before fully looking over at her. "Oh, I did; you were incredible by the way, but," Kenny hesitantly grabbed her hand and intertwined their fingers. "I mostly talked about you." Veronica tried to fight her grin, but couldn't contain it. "They're going to kill us." she laughed.
"They'll get used to it." Kenny kissed her forehead before getting up. "You should go get settled in your locker room now. I'll see you later tonight." She nodded before making her way over. He opened the door for her making sure she didn't look too skeptical as she left. Veronica didn't look back, but she could feel his stare until she turned the corner.
Sawyer was just enjoying the space of her locker room before the rumbling of her stomach disturbed her peace. She rolled her eyes, "I'm fucking starving" she said to no one. She grabbed her phone before she made her way to find catering. She was laughing at something Nova had said in the group chat when she heard her name being called. Sawyer saw Warhorse flailing his arms around and she groaned.
She made her way over to him. "Could you make it any more obvious that I'm here?" He laughed, "Well you must have lost your hearing. I called you at least ten times." "Just got a lot of things on my mind-" "Is it a thing or is it SOMEONE?" He cut her off with suspicion. Sawyer squinted at him. "That is none of your concern, Jake." She huffed, crossing her arms. "Oh? Then I guess you don't want to know what I heard from your special someone then." He put his hands in his pockets, waiting for her to lose her cool any moment.
She huffed, "Don't do that to me. Tell me RIGHT. NOW." He acted like he was thinking it over before finally spilling the beans, "Alright, so you know-how at the end of each show the roster goes out for drinks, well he's planning to finally man up and talk to you there."
Sawyer's eyes widened, keeping her jaw from falling to the floor. Jake laughed at her expression, Sawyer reached up and smacked his shoulder. He was about to mockingly cry out in pain before she spoke up, "That settles it! I'm not going." Sawyer began to walk away, "Dude comes on. You can't just avoid him forever."
"Yes, I can. I've done it for almost a year, I can still do it."
"Well then don't look behind you," Jake said, stifling laughter. Sawyer, not even bothering to look, leaped to the nearest hiding spot...under the serving table. She brought her knees to her chest, trying to look out from behind the cloth. She looked around but didn't see anyone. Only the intense fit of laughter coming from Jake. "You should've," he stopped to catch his breath, "You should've seen your face."
Sawyer exhaled, "You better be glad I don't powerbomb you onto the damn chips." Sawyer stomped away, grabbing an orange on the way out. "For what it's worth Nova wasn't here to record it!" Jake called out, still laughing.
Veronica had decided to wait by the entrance tunnels and talk to everyone who passed by. Most recognize her from her match with Sawyer and Nova. She found herself in deep conversation with one of her opponents tonight - Penelope Ford and her fiancé, Kip Sabian until Nova and Sawyer came up from behind them. They began to make their way to ringside.
The opener match was over, and in just a matter of time - Warhorse will be facing Cody for his TNT Championship. Nova made sure to have her camera out and they all cheered loudly for their friend. There were many times where he was so close to winning that title, everyone could feel it. Unfortunately, with a figure four from Cody - he tapped out causing the match to end. Warhorse went over to Nova, Sawyer, and Veronica in the crowd and hugged them before making his way back through the tunnel.
Matches passed the whole night, the same topic came up. "I can't believe he lost" "Why did Silver and Reynolds come out?" "Matt Cardona?"
"Sawyer cheer up. Please." Veronica pleaded, shaking Sawyer's arm. "No! That was so dumb. His moment was stolen." Veronica sighed, knowing how Sawyer was feeling, "I know. But I'm sure they're gonna bring him back one of these days." Sawyer huffed, turning towards the ring. "I wonder what they're setting up," Nova said, taking a break from recording. Veronica inspected the whole set, "Something tells me Sawyer isn't gonna be too happy."
Sawyer looked around, confused. She didn't understand what the two thought was so funny until she heard the iconic and very familiar, "I'm Better Than You. And You Know It." Nova and Veronica soon started to giggle at Sawyer's terrified expression. Soon MJF walked out with the one person Sawyer did NOT wanna see, Wardlow. Sawyer then tried to switch her seats to one of the ones in the back, but Nova pulled her back. "Just sit. He probably won't even look this way." Sawyer gave her friend a threatening look, before sinking into her seat, trying not to be noticed.
They watched as MJF gave his very intense speech, Sawyer stood up just to whisper in her friend's ears, "He's gotten so much better at this since we last saw him." Veronica leaned over, "Not when he was making heart eyes at Nova." Nova rolled her eyes as Sawyer and Veronica made kissing faces at her.
When Sawyer turned back to the very comedic moment happening in the ring, to see Michael looking directly at her. Veronica looked over at her friend and laughed, "You look like a deer in headlights!" Sawyer finally broke away from his gaze to give a death stare to her current nuisance.
The speech was finally over, Sawyer's heart rate finally going back to normal. "Are you done being a pussy?" Nova asked. "Shut. Up." Sawyer shot back.
Veronica laughed at her friends before speaking up, "C'mon, we gotta go get ready."
Nova and Veronica were set for a tag team match against Penelope Ford and Britt Baker. It was after Dynamite, and only a couple of people made their way to the bar early. Sawyer had decided she would watch their match next to the EVP's. She had exited the locker room before hearing a laugh down the hallway. It was Wardlow having a conversation with 10 from the Dark Order. Sawyer froze and slowly backed up into her room, trying not to make any noise. She was almost there until she ran into the frame of the door making her head bounce with a thud. "Ow!" Sawyer shouted, quickly covering her mouth right after.
Wardlow looked back, and a sly grin crept on his face. "You alright Sawyer?" he asked, trying to contain his laughter. She rubbed the spot on her forehead and gave a thumbs up. 10 looked in confusion, "Who is she?" he whispered. "I'll tell you later," Wardlow mumbled. He just nodded as she made her way back into her room. Wardlow let out a low breath before continuing his conversation, but in the back of his mind he still wanted to talk to Sawyer - he just had to find out how.
Nova was talking back and forth with Sawyer on the phone. "What do you mean you're staying in your locker room?" Nova whispered-shouted. She rolled her eyes before hanging up. "Is she coming?" Veronica had only overheard so much. "No. Turns out she made a complete fool out of herself in front of Michael again." They knew they would have to hear her complain later, but their main focus was on their match for now. They walked over to the face tunnel and made their entrance. Britt Baker and Penelope Ford came out shortly after not wasting any time to get started.
The match was an intense 10 minutes. It seemed to go by so fast because before they knew it Nova was in the lockjaw and had to tap out. Veronica helped Nova roll out, and back through the tunnel meeting a pleased Elite. "That wasn't half bad; great job!" Nick complimented. Veronica smiled and Nova thanked them, before making their way to Sawyer's locker room. She was pacing around the room in her gear. Veronica knocked before letting Nova and herself in. "Is it clear? Is he out there?" Sawyer asked. "We didn't see him. Maybe he left to go to the bar." Nova added. Veronica nodded which made Sawyer sigh with relief. "Alright. I'm going out. Wish me luck."
Sawyer tied her boot and stood at the face tunnel. She seemed to push Wardlow to the back of her mind, and not let him affect the way she would wrestle tonight. Her entrance music played and she made her way out. A familiar voice started booing her, and she looked over and saw MJF. She almost rolled her eyes until she saw a smirking Wardlow behind him. She nearly broke her neck trying to make sure that was him in the front row. Dani Jordyn's entrance music broke her back to reality. The bell finally rang and they began to lock up. After a lot of back and forth, action Sawyer hooked up Jordyn for the Canadian Destroyer. 1... 2... 3. Sawyer's arm was raised, and she couldn't help but look in Wardlow's direction. A pleased smile appeared on his face as he bit his lip trying to stay in character. MJF just rolled his eyes as he left his seat to go backstage, with Wardlow following him.
Sawyer walked back up the stage, commentary acknowledging the match she had also won the previous night. As soon as she was in the tunnel, she was met with Veronica and Nova, squealing and congratulating her. "Great job out there Sawyer!" Tony Khan said from his headset. "We have got to have Kenny search for talent more often. You're incredible." Matt chimed. "Thank you, that means so much," Sawyer said, trying to contain a giant grin.
Veronica and Nova led her away, walking towards the dressing rooms so they could get ready. Nova rushed inside, knowing she would need more time. Veronica turned to Sawyer before they went to their separate rooms, "Whatcha gonna wear?" Sawyer shrugged, "Jeans and a t-shirt."
"No, you are not!" "But it's my-" "Nope! No Jeff Hardy shirts for ONE. NIGHT. Please?" Sawyer groaned at those words, "Fine! But that means no red carpet dress for you either!"
Veronica giggled, the two going into their respective dressing rooms to get ready.
Time Skip
Sawyer sat outside in the parking lot, waiting for Nova and Veronica to finish getting ready, like usual. She took out her phone, snapping pics of her outfit. A merlot satin tank top tucked into her dark brown ribbed pants and finished with a black belt and matching heels. Veronica finally walked out, and the two started hyping each other up. Veronica looked glamorous in her one strapped black dress, a cutout at the stomach with nude pumps.
"I didn't know you had THIS in your closet," Veronica said, jokingly checking out Sawyer. "Okay but you," Sawyer said, twirling Veronica, "When did you get the money to buy this?" Veronica ignored the question "Kenny definitely didn't leave it as a gift in my dressing room." She thought to herself.
"Where's the party at bitches?" Nova called out, her friends cheering. "The life of the party has arrived!" Sawyer whooped. "And in a stunning outfit." Veronica chimed it.
Of course, Nova being the most extravagant of the trio, had the most extravagant outfit. A lilac two-piece skirt set, with sparkles and straps all over, matched with the most gorgeous pair of five-inch heels. "Sawyer, are you still driving?" Veronica asked, dragging her bag towards the trunk. "Yes, and I won't drink too much so I can still drive back." "Then can we go now, I've been waiting for this." Nova chimed in, dancing and trying to get the others to join. "Fine fine! Just get in the car so we aren't the last ones." Veronica said, walking up to the passengers' seat.
They all climbed in the car, Sawyer starting it and pulling out of the parking lot, their first night at Daily's place complete.
The bar was only a couple of minutes away from the arena. They pulled into a parking spot and then got out. They showed the guy at the front their ID and made their way to where the rest of the roster was. They found a spot in the back and sat down for a minute. "I need a drink. ASAP," Sawyer said as she looked around the room. "Three drinks coming right up." Veronica chirped. She made her way through the crowd and to one of the bartenders. "Two Martinis and one Margarit please, no lime." he began to pour her drinks when a familiar person sat next to her. "I didn't think you were one to drink," Kenny said, making her turn her head. "Sometimes. It just depends on the occasion." she laughed. Kenny asked for a beer and then took a sip. He started to speak up before Veronica was handed her drinks and began to get off the stool almost tripping. He caught her before she could. "Where are you going?" Kenny asked, a bit disappointed. She wiped her hands and grabbed the two drinks from off the table, and left one sitting. "I have to give these to Sawyer and Nova, but I'll be back," she promised.
Nova and Sawyer were talking about their matches from the night when Veronica came with the drinks. "You do know we see everything," Nova said with her arms crossed. Sawyer took her drink and took a huge sip. "It won't belong. I just want to talk to him, and then I'll come back and spend the rest of the night with you guys." Veronica lied. "You better. Or we will drag you back to the hotel." Nova said. Veronica rolled her eyes before going back with Kenny. "She is already ditching us for a man on the first day." Sawyer complained. "He better be worth it." Nova said as she sipped her drink for the first time. "Hey do you two want to play a game with us?" Trent from Best Friends had come up to them and asked. They looked over and saw Chuck Taylor leaning against the wall waiting for an answer. "Sure?" "Why not." They said in unison. Trent led them over to the pool table and began to set it up.
On the other side of the bar was a smiling Veronica and half wasted Kenny Omega. "Why don't we get out of here? It isn't as fun as this place I know down the street." Kenny whispered in her ear. They were sitting at two of the stools in the bar, his arm resting over her shoulders. She looked around and saw Nova and Sawyer playing a game of pool with Trent and Chuck Taylor. "They'll be fine. If they get mad at you just tell them it was my idea." he stood off his barstool and held his hand out for her to jump off hers. "Where exactly is this place Kenny..." she questioned him as he guided her to the doors of the bar. He smirked and let out a low chuckle, "You'll see."
"There is no way you have never played pool before," Chuck said to Sawyer as she hit another ball in. The four were having fun hanging out for the first time. It was perfect... too perfect. As Sawyer took a swig at her drink she looked around for Veronica seeing Wardlow took her spot. She squinted a bit and also saw Lexy Nair rubbing her hand up and down his arm.
A sting of jealousy overcame her. Trent seemed to notice as he made his way over. "Are you two a thing?" he asked. Sawyer tried to think of the right words to say, "Not really; we used to be." he nodded understanding. "Forget about him. Tonight just let loose, get wasted." Trent took what was left of his drink and poured it into her glass. She looked over at Wardlow and Lexy one more time to see her twirling a strand of hair around her finger. "Fuck it," she said and leaned her head back to gulp the drink down. Trent smiled. "I'll buy you another drink if you beat me." he challenged. Sawyer tilted her head while she thought it over, "Challenge accepted."
Fast Forward to Later in the Night
It was currently midnight. Most of the roster had gone home earlier, but a few still stuck around. Lots just chatted with their co-workers, staying close not wanting to cause a scene; Sawyer on the other hand was full-on drunk dancing on top of the pool table. Nova along with her. Technically, she wasn't as drunk as Sawyer, but she wasn't about to let her best friend make a fool out of herself alone. They swayed to a song they didn't even know until they got dizzy and almost fell over. Wardlow sat in the same spot of the bar all night long. Ever since, Lexy had finally stopped bugging him a while ago. She was pretty, but he didn't want her. The girl he wanted was poorly break dancing on top of a table and he couldn't help but watch, hell everyone's attention was on her.
"He's looking at you again." Nova whispered in Sawyer's ear. She turned around and was met with Michael's stare. Sawyer flipped her hair over her shoulder and took one more sip before jumping from the table. Nova looked at her like she had grown a second head, "What the hell are you doing?!" "I'm going to see what he wants." Nova was surprised. She was actually about to face her problem instead of running from them, she smiled in satisfaction before returning to Trent and Chuck at a booth.
Wardlow saw Sawyer approaching him making him sit up a little bit straighter. "W-why have you been watching me all night like a creep?" Her words slurred. He looked over and rolled his eyes, "She was full mode drunk right now and that was the only reason she came up to him."
"Why have you been avoiding me all day?"
"I asked you first."
Michael tensed. He thought over his words, "I don't know. I was waiting for you to come over and say something...say anything-" She huffed, "You looked like you had enough company." His brows twisted in confusion before suddenly realizing she was talking about Lexy earlier. He began to laugh as she looked at him with disgust. "You could just say you were jealous, love." She opened her mouth to say something but decided against it, he was right. Wardlow cleared his throat, "You need to get home. Here take my uber to your hotel." he offered. Shortly, Trent and Chuck came over carrying a sleeping Nova. "She passed out mid-conversation," Chuck explained as she began to snore. Wardlow and Sawyer chuckled. "Their ride is outside already. Can you carry her out safely?" He asked as he made eye contact with Sawyer. Trent and Chuck nodded as they began to exit the bar. Sawyer began to follow before she was pulled back by Wardlow. "I just wanted to say... congratulations on finally getting the recognition you deserve." He shifted around uncomfortably. "Thank you for putting a good word for us to the EVP's and Tony." "Without Wardlow would we really be in AEW?" Sawyer asked herself. "That was nothing, thank me when you win that AEW Women's Championship." He winked at her then gave her a soft smile. "Goodnight Sawyer." He began to lean in as he was going in for a kiss, before pulling away and walking out the bar leaving her there dumbfounded. She drunkenly exited, and into the car Trent and Chuck were standing by. "Aren't there supposed to be three of you?" Chuck asked confused. Sawyer thought about it before realizing "Oh shit- where's Veronica?" She pulled her phone out to text her. "She probably is waiting for you guys back at the hotel." Trent shrugged. "I had a lot of fun tonight, we hope to see you guys back here next week." Chuck added before shutting the door. Sawyer smiled to herself, before leaning her head on Nova's shoulder and imagining having this type of life everyday.
"Shit." Veronica cursed as she dropped her key card. Her night with Kenny went a whole different route than she was expecting. It was currently 3 in the morning, and she was sure Nova and Sawyer were fast asleep. She opened the door and slowly put down her purse to take off her shoes. A shuffle made Veronica freeze as a lamp turnt on, and Nova and Sawyer sat on the edge of her bed. "AHH!" Veronica screamed, causing her to jump. "You better explain RIGHT NOW." Nova said annoyed while Sawyer got comfortable. Veronica groaned before sitting next to them.
"Well, it all started when...."
