Chapter 21 - Running Raw

Emily's POV:

Shane and I sat in the living room of our apartment watching Netflix for about another hour then I turned off the T.V. and said "You ready to go shoe shopping babe?" He replied "Yeah babe lets go." Then we got up went into the bedroom got changed into some comfy clothes then walked out of the apartment locked the door and then headed to the car. We got in the car and headed to the nearest shoe store which for us was a Famous Footwear, we parked the car got out then walked into the store and walked out with some Nike Air Jordan High tops then got back into the car and went home. Once we got back to the apartment Shane looked at me and said "What do you want to do now babe?" I looked at him then I looked at the time and realized that we had to be at the arena in 2 hours for the show. I looked at Shane and he was pretty bruised up from his match with Mark last night he had a nice black and blue bump on his face but that did not stop him from smiling all day. I told Shane that we had to get our shit together and go to the arena for Raw tonight and he looked at me batted his beautiful gray-silver eyes at me and said "Do we have to go now?" I melted when I saw that he was making puppy dog eyes and I said "We have two hours." He nodded along like he was actually listening to what I was saying then he pulled me down on the couch with him and we started kissing, in between kisses I said "Babe...we...have...to...go." He replied "Ok..." We went into the bedroom and packed up my ring gear and packed up a suit for Shane to get changed into before the show started since Vince and him were kicking it off. Once we were done getting packed we had down to lobby of the hotel and walked out to my rental car and we were on our way to the arena, it didn't take long for us to get there when we did everyone was looking at Shane with respect but pitty in their eyes. I stopped and said "Listen up guys! Shane is fine! So stop staring or I will give you something to stare about!" After that we walked to our shared locker room and Shane shut the door behind us and said "Em you didn't have to do that. Let them stare that just means they are still talking about my match with mark last night." I said "Shane you know I get anxious when people stare. I am sorry for that though." He walked up and pecked me on the lips and said "I love you. You know that?" I replied "I love you too Shane."

Shane's POV: 

Emily and I woke up this morning and decided that we both needed some new kicks for Raw tonight. So once we woke up got dressed and ate breakfast we sat down to watch Netflix for a couple hours then she looked at me and said "You ready to go shoe shopping babe?" I replied "Yeah." Then she grabbed her rental car keys and we headed down to the lobby of the hotel got in her car and drove to a local Famous Footwear and got some Nike Air Jordan High-tops and then we headed home. After we got home we sat down and my beautiful woman looked at me and said "What do you want to do now babe?" then she looked at her watch and saw that we had about two hours before we had to head to the arena for Raw. I looked at her with my puppy dog eyes and said "Do we have to go right now?" then I pulled her back down on the couch and started to kiss her in between the kisses she was telling me that we had to go and then I finally gave in and then we went into the bedroom. She grabbed her ring gear and a pair of jeans, a shirt and a suit jacket for me and then we left our hotel room made our way down to the lobby and then headed out again to her rental car. It did not take long for us to get to the arena and when we were walking in I saw that people we staring at us and I knew Em saw it to but before I could get us to our locker room she stopped and said "Listen! Shane is Fine! Now Stop Staring at us our I will give you something to stare about!" After that we finally made it to our shared locker room and I shut the door behind us and said "Em you didn't have to do that. Let them stare that means they are still talking about my match with mark." Then she looked at me and said "Shane you know I get anxious when people stare at us. I am sorry." Then I walked up to her pecked her lips and said "I love you. You know that?" she smiled and said "I love you too." There was only about an hour before the show so Emily and walked out to catering and sat down and got something to eat people were still looking at me because the saw my battle scars from the match and we just sat there looked at one another laughed and finished our impromptu dinner and then we headed back to our locker room got dressed and sat down on the couch just sitting there her head was resting on my chest and we just stayed there until a stage tech came in and said "Shane time to head to the gorilla." Then we got up and walked out of our locker room and Em walked me to the gorilla pecked me on the lips and said "I love you." I said "I love you too." Then I stood there and she walked back to our locker room and then I listened to my father drone on about how I failed like he knew I would then my music hit and I walked out on to the stage top where my father was and the crowd erupted. My father looked at me and said "What are you doing out here?" I told him that I was just coming out to say my good-byes and then I was about to walk through the curtain to the backstage area but my dad said "Wait..Wait...Wait no one upstages Vince Mcmahon. Then he asked the universe if they wanted to see me run Raw tonight and they started the "YES!" chant, then he looked at me and told me that I would be running Raw only for tonight as a test run to see how I can handle being in charge then he stuck his hand out and then I shook it. I knew my father would come around but he did very reluctantly but I knew I was going to have a hell of time running Raw tonight.
