Since the Royal Rumble I've been on the road constantly, I've been lacking sleep due to the stress and aggravation that comes from work as well.
Like I said I'm happy that I have a job, hell I've been in the wrestling business for almost seven years now,
I just thought once I get the job I'll be doing what I love which is kicking ass in the ring but Vince has other ideas I'm either on commentary, interviewing some wrestlers or sitting in catering which I dread so much.

This weeks Raw tapings are in Canada I'm excited for that mainly because I've never been and I'm down for new experiences. The sound of an alarm clock echos through out the hotel room, I hear Amy mutters something from her bedside but I continue to sleep, She leans up and throws a pillow at me hard waking me up.

"Amy What The Hell" I Spat Annoyed, Her eyes point to the loud clock, I turn around and shuts it off.

"Thank You, Now what time is it?" She Asked, I look over and read the clock that says 6:14 AM.

"6:14." I Said

She groans then gets up from the bed and walks towards the bathroom. "Time for work." Amy Said

"Sadly, Can I just sleep for like 5 more minutes." I Pleaded With Her

"Sonya No, we have an 8:30 flight to Toronto now get your ass up...I mean it." Amy Said

I Roll my eyes and lean back into the bed, She closes the door to shower quickly. Thankfully I took one last night so I'll just take one over there later on, as she's showering I take this time to pack up everything that belongs to me.

Moments later Amy comes out the bathroom, she's in her underwear and her hair is damp. "Hey Did you uh-bring your blow dryer?"

"Yeah it's in my suitcase, you can borrow it." I Said

"Thanks." Amy Said

I grab the nearest brush I could find and began brushing the knots out of my hair, since my hair is very thick I tend to wake up sometimes with knots which is fucking annoying, Amy and I are sharing a mirror since were both in a rush we would push each other out the way to get a look at ourselves, I'm not mad at this since I grew up with a sister and we had to share almost everything.

Amy's hair is dry enough, we put our hair into quick ponytails and pack our stuff so we can leave. Our van driver drops us off at the nearest airport, Through out the flight Amy and I slept because we were still tired from the night before. Luckily our flight was 7 hours from Arizona to Toronto.

******

I'm backstage in the skydome, so far we've been in Canada for about two days and everything about this place was so cool. Amy, Matt, Jeff and I got to visit Niagara Falls and the CN Tower which was an amazing view I'm very glad I got to experience this with the people I care most about.

Tonight's Raw will be taped and I will be doing a segment, Vince asked me to come in his office and he basically told me that I'm gonna be interviewing someone in the ring tonight. It wasn't much but it was something my least favorite part about this is that I'm going to be interviewing Michaels later on.

I get dressed in the women's locker room, I had to wait a while because Brett was in there earlier changing. Apparently He likes to get dressed in here due to the face that there are a lot dudes here and there isn't much space so Brett asked us if it's okay and since only Amy, Sunny, Lisa, Jacqueline and I only use it we let him use the locker room time to time.

I make my way to the gorilla area, the give me the signal and my music hits the PA system. I make my way out to the ring and the crowd cheers for me, that instantly brought a smile to my face. I wave at the fans and I get some cat calls from the men in the crowd due to the fact of what I'm wearing.

One of the people near the ring hands me a
microphone, Vince looks at me then gives me a nod to start the interview.

"Hey There Toronto."

The crowd cheers loudly for me, I even hear some chants of my name which makes me cheese even harder but I get back to work.

"Okay Ladies & Gentlemen would all please welcome the world wrestling federation champion Shawn Michaels!" I Said

Shawn's music hits and he makes his way to the ring, he high fives the fans. I can admit even though the guy an ass at times his theme is really catchy, I'll never let Shawn know that though. He steps through the ring ropes and I move out the way so he can do his entrance, He does his pose and winks at me as I roll my eyes at him.

I walk in the middle of the ring and Shawn does as well. His music dies down and it's time for this segment that I've been dreading all day because knowing Shawn he'll take this as an opportunity to flirt with me some more.

"Shawn Michaels here in this staggering crowd of Toronto, Which is Brett Hart county." The Crowd Cheers "Don't worry we'll get to Brett in a minute.
Shawn I'd like for you to respond to the comments made earlier by the former WWF Champion the man who you defeated in your hometown Psycho Sid."

Shawn eyes my entire body, he circles around with that dumb Smirk on his face. He looks at every square inch of me as I'm asking him questions from the previous segment, Shawn gets closer to me but I remain in character.

"Sid said that this title brings out the evil in people, how would you address that Shawn?" I Asked

"Well you know Sonya, if you had asked my this six-maybe eight months hell a year ago I would have told you that this belt represents everything that is good in the world wrestling federation." Shawn Said

"Okay." I Said

Shawn goes on to say even though Sid might not be the smartest but he's right about his comment.
He goes on and says that he's one of the superstars who the title has brought the worst out of. Now that comment really intrigued me, I wonder if he's serious about that.

I try to interject but Shawn stops me and puts his arm around my shoulders, this is the closest he's ever been to me and he smells really good. All I could smell was a hint of old spice which I love.

"Hold On Sonya, I'm not done sweetheart." I Raised my eyebrow at him "I said it before and I'll say it again, if being bad is what you have to do to be the world wrestling federation champion. Then I'll be the worst guy the WWF has ever seen." Shawn Said

The crowd booed at that comment, Shawn chuckles a bit and grabs a hold of my hand which is holding the mic. He holds is closer to him, Shawn goes on to talk about Brett hart and he worries about being popular and Shawn didn't give a shit about popularity, And that's when I really get curious does he actually feel this way or is this all for show.

"Well Shawn as far as Brett is concerned, I know you two don't see eye to eye and Brett has said some pretty harsh things to say about you. I wonder even though we're in Canada what is your reaction to what he's been saying lately?" I Said

Shawn walks closely to me again and he puts his arm around my waist as he speaks into the microphone.
I'm keeping my cool because all I want to do right now is slap his arm off of me but I'm on Tv gotta stay professional.

"Certainly, Look Sweetheart I'm very used to being disliked because Sonya when you got this." He Points to his Title "And your honest, people tend to dislike that." Shawn Said

"Mhmm." I Said

"You see everyone hated Mohammed Ali while he was the world champion now everyone refers to him as the great of all time. Listen Brett you can be the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be if that's what you wanna call yourself.
But one thing you will never call yourself right now is the world wrestling federation." Shawn Said

Everyone in the crowd immediately boo's at him, I'm trying to get Shawn's attention again but the crowd irrupts as Brett makes his way to the ring.

I stand in the middle between the two of them, Brett says how he's found it really hard to like Shawn which I believe. Brett goes on to say that Shawn's a Degenerate and a Jack ass, I almost laughed on that comment. Brett's last dig on Shawn was calling him a punk which the Toronto crowd loved.

Shawn takes the microphone out of my hand and goes onto agree with Brett and said that he'll go on ti be all those things that he's called him, As Shawn rambled on Steve Austin slides into the ring and attacks Brett.

The two big guys almost crash into me but Shawn pulls me aside by the waist getting me out of harms way. "Thank You." I Said

"No Problem Doll, By the way you look really good in that tight skirt." Shawn Said

"Shut Up." I Said As He Smiled At Me

After the altercation Brett and Steve had, I got back into the ring to finish the segment with Shawn & Brett. Towards the end they shared a few words, Shawn took off his Title and put it on the ground between the two of them. I looked between the two waiting for something to happen but nothing did.

Instead Brett put his foot on the title so Shawn couldn't pick it up, He started getting annoyed with Brett I noticed. Shawn gets in Brett's face then he gives him back his title then gets out the ring.

Shawn's music plays and he does his pose and walks over to me dancing to his music, I didn't want any part of that so I got out of the ring quickly. As I walked backstage, He did that same dumb annoying smirk that he always does and winked at me.

The next following week, Monday Night Raw was going to be airing on Thursday. I really wasn't doing anything tonight so Amy and I decided to play some spades. Paul walked by and his way of saying hello is to mess up my hair which reminds me what my brothers used to do when Ryland and I were little.

"Hey Sonya." Paul Said

"What's up Paul." I Said

"What I don't get a Hello Paul?" Amy Said

"What I Was going to." Paul Said

"Mhmm." Amy Said

"Hey Amy, there you happy." Paul Said

"So what's going on with you tonight?" I Asked placing a card down

"Oh Tonight Rock and I have a match." Paul Says

"For the IC title right?" Amy Said Drawing a card

"Yup I'm dropping the title to him." Paul Said

"Aww your losing your baby, poor Paul." I Joked Smiling at him

Amy and I laughed a bit, Paul rolled his eyes.

"No don't worry I'll get my title back you'll see." Paul Says

"Oh I bet we will." Amy Said Lamely

A producer walks over and informs Paul that his match is about to start.

"Later Ladies gotta go." Paul Said

"Bye Paul." We Said

"I'm telling you, if you were in the company like two years ago you probably would have hated Paul. Amy Said

I look at her confused furrowing my brows at her "Why?"

"Because A couple of the guys told me that Shawn and Hunter and a bunch of their friends basically had control of this place." Amy Said

"They did whatever they wanted?" I Said

"Yeah basically." Amy Muttered

"What did Vince do?" I Asked

"Pretty Much not that much, He kinda let Shawn, Hunter, Scott and Kevin get away with a lot of shit especially when it came to winning matches." Amy Said

"Huh..., So they just didn't care." I Said

Amy Nodded her head "They didn't care who's toes they were stepping on, as long as it benefited their friends nothing mattered."

I thought about what she said, Now I think back to the segment last week with Shawn and Brett maybe they do actually hate each other.

"So do you hate Paul & Shawn?" I Ask

Amy Shrugs her shoulders. "No I have to know them to actually hate them, I just don't like how they can be at time you know—"

"Assholes." I Added

"Yes, I don't hate them I just can't stand them at times that's all but I'm sure they can be nice when they want to." Amy Said

"Paul yes, but Shawn I don't know." I Said

"You don't like him because he's always hitting on you." Amy Said

"That and that he's always doing that dumb smirk, sometimes I just want to slap that smirk off his face." I Said

"You Too." Amy Said

We both chuckled and continued playing our game of spades, I beat her and she wanted to play again so we did. I over here Vince speaking in the ring, I look up to see Vince introducing Shawn into the ring.

Amy and I stop playing the game and focus our attention to the Tv in the catering area. Shawn and his trainer Jose Lothario enter the ring, I look closely at him and doesn't look so good tonight, he looks really tired and sad even.

Throughout the segment Shawn starts to get emotional in the ring, this surprises me because I've never seen him act that way before. Due to everyone's surprise Shawn said that he was forfeiting the WWF Title, Everyone in the room looks at each other in shock.

Then he adds on that he's lost his "Smile". I'm not sure what that means hell I'm not sure any one did at the moment.

"He lost his smile what the hell does that mean?" Amy Said

"I don't know." I Muttered

I lean back in my chair crossing my arms looking at the television confused, He started to tear up a bit and so did the fans out in attendance. Some of the guys backstage didn't really know how to feel about this segment, some of them thought this was very typical of Shawn to Vacant a title or he just didn't want to compete a small of me was curious to how he really felt.

After The show ended, I put on my leather jacket and gathered all my belongings out of the women's locker room. I walked to my car outside in the parking lot to my car. As I'm putting my keys into my car I spot someone smoking a cigarette and as they walk over I realize it's no one other than Michaels.

"Hey Sonya." Shawn Said

"Hey." I Said "So Um...are you okay? You know after what just happened."

He Shrugs his shoulders and leans on my car hood, I'm not really sure what he's doing but I assume he needs someone to talk to. I slowly walk over to him and looked him up and down, There's something definitely going on with him.

"Yeah I'm fine...I guess." Shawn Mutters

"So was that real, is something really going on with you...what made you lose your smile because that's all I've been seeing since I've been here." I Said

"True but everyone goes through stuff Sonya." Shawn Said

I Nod "True, But I'm curious what made you lose your smile?"

"Some stuff that you don't know about." Shawn Said

"Like what?" I Asked crossing my arms

"Personal Stuff Alright." Shawn Said

I realized he was getting annoyed a bit so I backed off a bit.

"Jesus was just curious that's all." I Said

"Why are you so curious in how I'm feeling all of a sudden?" Shawn Asked

To be honest I really don't know my damn self.

"Because everyone saw what you said you seemed kind of sad out there I just assumed—"

"What? Don't assume anything okay, don't go assuming stuff you don't know. You don't know anything." Shawn Said

I furrow my brows at him and rolled my eyes scoffing.

"My bad for trying to be nice to you, Brett was right you do make it so hard to actually like you." I Said

"That's not true alright, Brett can be an ass too." Shawn Said

"Really? Because since I've been here he's actually been really nice to me even his family." I Said

"I'm nice to you." Shawn Said

"So flirting is being nice." I Said

"Sure whatever I'm flirt, I do that with every attractive woman." Shawn Said

"Do you hear yourself at times." I Said

"I do and you know what you can be really bitchy at times." Shawn Said

"Did you just call me a bitch?" I Said

"No I said you act like a bitch that's different." Shawn Said

"Not it's not you called me a bitch!" I Spat

"No Sonya if I wanted to call you a bitch I would have." Shawn Said

I furrowed my brows at him, before he could say anything else I slapped him across the face. He turned around holding his face, Shawn got close in my face but I didn't move at all. He was so close I felt  his hot breath on my face.

Shawn and I stared at each other angrily in silence, I shoved Shawn out the way and got into my car. I turned on the engine and looked out my window at Shawn who still looked angry but I shrugged my shoulders and drove off fuming.

A/N : Hmm That slap was personal🤣, But hey guys I hope you guys like this chapter been working on it for a couple of days now, Comment down below I want to hear your thoughts ❤️
