My first Punk story! I hope it will be good :P
I don't own CM Punk even thought I'd like that. *grins*
Another normal day for Jessica Matthews. Drive to the arena, get in your gear and warm up for the match. The usual. She was a 24 years old new diva in the raw brand. She had had a few matches since her debuts and she was doing not bad at all, well, at least that what her best friend Ashley thought. She was known as the punk diva and Jessica hoped that one day she would be at her level.
Once she was done getting in gear, she took her Ipod. She played some Metallica song to relax herself, yes, she loved loud music. As she warmed up, she lost herself in the music, humming with the rhythm. She then felt a finger taping on her shoulder and she spun around quickly, startled.
"Geez Ash, don't surprise me like that!" she said, her hand on her chest where her heart was beating fast.
"I called your name like 5 times. You should really lower your music, it's bad for your ears." Ashley smiled.
"Can't do." Jess grinned. "So, what's up?"
"Vince told me that we get to fight each other tonight." Ashley told her.
"Awesome! Be ready to have your butt kicked Ash." Jess joked.
"Never! I won't let you win that easy." Ashley winked.
"I hope so. I can't wait." Jess said as she put on her jacket. It was a bit cold in the arena.
"Me too. See you later Jess." Ashley waved then left.
Jess was ecstatic. Tonight she would finally have a decent fight, not like with other talentless divas who just had boobs to show off. She wanted action, challenge and true competition, and with Ashley, she was sure to get that.
Later on, both Jess and Ash were having a stare down in the middle of the ring. Both wanted the win and both would fight for dear life for it. The ref separated them and motioned them to go in their respective corners. Once this was done, the bell rang and the match began.
In the mean time, the famous wrestler known as CM Punk was on the phone with someone else. He seemed upset and was frowning. He was pacing the room while he listened to what the person at the other end of the line had to say. He passed a hand in his long black hair with frustration.
"I told you, I have to work. Everything isn't about yourself." He said in the phone through clenched teeth.
"I'm never home? What the fuck are you talking about? I'm only gone for 3 days a week, I can't be away less than that!" he replied to what the other person said.
The voice coming from the phone grew louder and Punk had to take the phone a bit away from his ear. He was exasperated. They had talked about that more than enough times and she still complained.
"You want to break up? Fine, I don't give a shit. Be gone." Punk growled as he cut the communication. He threw his phone in his bag and sat on the bench loudly.
He couldn't take it anymore. He clearly told her about the fact that he travels a lot when they began to date and she told him that it didn't matter, that she wanted to be with him. He snorted. Lately, that's the only thing she did; complain. They have gotten into many verbal fights and he knew it was a matter of time before they broke up.
He shook his head to get rid of his anger, his match was next. Just like he guessed, a music started to play, it was the music of that new diva…
Once Jess was backstage, she waited for Ashley to join her, which didn't take long. She had a huge smile on her face as she hugged Jess.
"Normally I would be all moody, but I'm happy you won."
"Thanks Ash, that match was awesome. We should definitely do it again someday." Jess said, returning the hug.
"Agreed." With that said, both divas went back to the locker room, talking about their match.
Once they arrived, Ashley opened the TV to his the next match.
"Wouldn't want to miss that match." Ashley said as she let herself fall on the couch, taking all the seat for herself. Jess rolled her eyes and pushed her down on the floor and laid on the couch just like Ashley did.
"Hey! You meanie." Ashley laughed as she got up.
"Never said I wasn't." Jess grinned as her friend pushed her a bit to sit on the couch.
"What's the next match anyway?" Jessica added.
"Punky against Miz." Her friend replied with a smile. Ashley and Punk were close, almost like a brother and a sister.
"I bet Punk wins it." Jess claimed.
"Same here." Ash grinned.
Jess had always wanted to meet him. He had been such an inspiration to her when she decided to stop drinking. It was during the darkest period of her life. Her life had been such a mess that she had decided to drown her problem in alcohol. And it only caused more problems. One night, she was at a club, partying like no other. She drank a lot, more than 6 drinks cause that's where she stopped counting. In those moments, she felt good, happy and free. But it was only temporary. Her heavy drinking leaded her to almost be raped. Yeah, someone had put something in her drink without her noticing it. If it wouldn't have been for Ashley…
That's when they had meet. Jess had woken up in a hospital with a terrible headache, thanks for the alcohol. She had receive a visit from Ashley who told her everything. Jess couldn't thank her enough. They hanged out many times, get to know each other then they had become great friends. She had been there in her struggles to stay clean of alcohol and now, her lips haven't been touched by alcohol for almost 5 years and she was proud of it. During those years, Ashley told her she was a wrestler. Jess had never seen wrestling in her life and she started to watch her friend in the ring, amazed by her. She also noticed a man covered in tattoos and piercing who claimed to be straight edge. He became her inspiration from that day.
Later that night, after the show was over, Jess, Ashley and a few of the guys were all in a club, celebrating Edge's WWE championship victory over John Cena. There was a lot of alcohol in this place and most of the guys were pretty drunk or quickly getting there. Not drinking anymore didn't mean Jess would not go into clubs anymore. She was the designed driver. She had one of the best time in her life, laughing and joking around with the guys and divas.
Sitting at the bar with a bottle of Pepsi in hand, Punk was watching from the corner of his eyes the scene. Drunken idiots he mumbled. He didn't remember just how the guys had convinced him to come with them, of course, he knew he would be the one dropping their drunken asses at their home. He snorted and went back at drinking his Pepsi, hoping he wouldn't have to stay here all night. He was still in a bad mood about the phone call he had earlier.
The Miz had made a joke that make every body piss their pants, even Randy Orton was rolling on the floor, shaking with drunken laughers. Suddenly, Jess felt a cold liquid spilled on her body. Looking ahead, she saw that Kelly Kelly had spilled her beer on her by accident. Kelly tried to apologise, but she was still laughing because of the joke.
"It's fine Kells, I'll go try to wash it." Jess said, raising from her seat. She proceed to get into the women room, but she almost tripped, her foot connecting with Randy's body. She succeeded to not fall and continued her walk when she noticed Punk sitting alone at the bar, brooding. She went to him to know if he was okay.
"Hey, are you okay?" Jess said once she was beside him. Her voice was a bit shaken since she was a bit shy around him. It sounded just like she was slurring. He merely turned to look at her then snorted.
"Better than your drunken ass at least." He said, drinking some of his Pepsi.
"What are you talking about? I'm not drunk." Jess said, somewhat offended by his words. Her voice was back to normal, surprise to hear those words.
"Rad, that's why you're covered with beer. If you can't even hold a bottle, then maybe it's time to stop." He replied. Was he lecturing her? What the fuck was wrong with him?
"Don't act like you know me, cause you don't. Kelly dropped her beer on me, that's it." She replied, a bit angry.
"I don't need to know you to know what you are. You're just one of those superficial girls who get themselves drunk to have someone to fuck them." He replied in disdain. She gasped, how dare he call her that!
"You know, I came to see if you were alright, but now, I don't think it was a good idea. Jerks are not worth my time." With that said, she stormed to the Ladies room. The nerve of him. What did she even do to him to deserve that? He didn't know how wrong he was about her. But then she heard him reply.
"Yeah, get lost." Punk snapped. Now she was mad and hurt.
She managed to keep the tears at bay until she entered in the room. She hated herself for letting another guy hurt her with words. Her last ex-boyfriend was a dick. That night she almost had been raped, her boyfriend called her bitch, slut, whore and all of the worse insults. He said that she wanted to get raped because no one else wanted to be with her and all the blah blah blah. They had broken up and he didn't take it well, so he just insult her to feel even more miserable. Sweet life huh?
She went to the sink and got some paper to dry her shirt, but it wasn't working well. She was smelling beer a lot. Since it wasn't doing much, she sighed and decided to go back to the guys. She passed by Punk without even looking at him, keeping her gaze at the mass of drunken guys in front of her.
"Alright girls, time to get you home." Jess said, looking to Ashley, Kelly and Melina.
"But, it's too early." Kelly whined as she started to drink her new beer.
"Early? It's almost 2 in the morning." Jess said, helping her up. Okay, 2 a.m wasn't a big deal for her, she just wanted to leave this place. Kelly whined again, but didn't offer much resistance. Mel and Ash followed close, helping each other walk. "See you later guys."
The guys let out drunken goodbyes. Once in the car, everybody buckled up and Jess started the car. Ashley noticed her friend's face and noticed something wasn't right.
"What's wrong Jess?" Ash's words were a bit slurred, but Jess could easily pick them up.
"Nothing." Was the only thing she said.
"Doesn't look like nothing." Ash said, concerned,
"I'll tell you tomorrow." Jess sighed.
Back at the bar, Punk felt bad. He knew he had clearly upset Jessica. He was in a bad mood. And she had come to see what was wrong and he just talked shit to her. She's right, he had been a jerk and said things about her when he didn't know her. He mentally kicked himself. He had the gift to screw things over at times.
The next morning, Jess wanted nothing more than to stay asleep for the rest of the day. She was mostly a night person, but Ashley decided to call her. Jess actually considered throwing her cell phone on the wall to make it stop, but she sighed and grabbed it.
"Yeah?" she answered with a yawn.
"Hey sleepy head, it's 2 in the afternoon, get up." Ashley laughed.
"I know…aren't you supposed to be the one sleeping for the whole day. Don't you have a killer headache?" Jess asked.
"A little one. But you know, I asked you a question last night and you said you'd tell me the next day. I think I have been patient enough." Ashley said. Jess groaned.
"Fine, I'll get up. You can come." Jessica replied.
"Coming soon! See ya." With that said, Ashley hung up.
Jess put her phone back on her nightstand and proceeded to get up of bed. She quickly dressed up and brushed her teeth. When she was done, Ashley was there.
"So, what is bothering my girl." Ash said, hugging her friend.
"Punk." Jess simply said.
"Why?" Ash asked, intrigued.
"He's an ass." Jess shrugged. Ashley started to laugh and Jess looked at her like she was crazy.
"Tell me something I don't know. Yes, Punk is an ass. No one can change that. Not even me." Ash replied, still laughing. "But seriously, what happened?"
"Last night, you know when Kelly spilled her beer on me." Jess started. Ash nodded. "Well, to get to the bathroom, I had to pass near him. I saw him brooding or something, so I asked him what was wrong and he just said things about me being drunk and not being able to hold my damn bottle. I told him I wasn't drunk, but he kept going at it."
"Hmm, he was brooding you said?" Ash asked. Jess nodded. "Then no wonder. I bet it's his girlfriend again. She's one hell of a whiner. They probably got into a fight again."
"But that didn't give him the right to say those things to me. The worse, was that he said I got drunk only to seduce some guy to sleep with me. He was basically calling me a whore Ash! It reminds me too much of my ex." Jess said as a few tears rolled down her cheeks.
"I can't believe him!" Ash exclaimed as she went to her friend and held her tightly in her arms. She would have a few words with Punk the next time they would be on RAW.
Soooo, care to tell me what you think about it? Review please :)
