Business As Usual 2 {Invite}

[blondeambition]

A few hours before the beginning of the Karma & Effect pay per view, and Kaley had made her way to the office of a young woman she had met a few days ago in the Towerview establishment, Sapphire Summers.

She had recalled the young woman speaking on one of her long time associates in a most interested manner. Kasino Royale to be exact. So she successfully convinced the young woman to accompany her to visit the young superstar, without telling her mind you, and as they made their way down the corridors towards Royal Flush's locker room she turned and spoke as she could hear her inquiring their destination on this day.

"Just calm down girl, I'm telling you you'll enjoy this. Just trust me now. Don't be nervous, I'm just helping out a little bit with something I see that needs to be done."

[Steven Cross]

Sapphire raised an eyebrow at Kaley's last comment.

What could possibly be so important right now though Kaley. I mean tonight is the big show and I still have a lot of work to get finished so that everything s in order.

Noting that they were headed into the locker room area, Sapphire blushed slightly, she couldn't have tried to set her up on a date could she not at a time like this.

[blondeambition]

Kaley's steps came to a pause as she turned, placing her arm around the shoulder area of her new friend. A genuine smile coming across her face as they continue on towards their destination.

"Important? More like necessary. I can see you already becoming one of those women who become possessed by their work. We're friends right? Well I can't very well allow for that to happen to a friend of mine sooooo, that's where I have to step in and do something about it."

"I do recall you saying something about a few gentlemen you were interested in a few days ago and figured why not introduce you to one of them. I am after all friends with one in particular. I've known him for years and even though he may seem "rough around the edges" he's really a nice guy once you get to know him. So just trust me girl, you won't want to miss this opportunity."

[Steven Cross]

The blush in Sapphire's cheeks deepened as she listened to Kaley speak. Hearing the words "rough around the edges" told her exactly who it was they were on the way to see.

I... I don't know if this is such a good idea at the moment though Kaley, I mean Kasino has been involved in some of the things that happened with my client in the past, so at a time like this things could so easily be taken the wrong way.

Despite her objections though Sapphire continued to let Kaley lead her toward there destination, her own mind telling her that taking a little time to talk to the man couldn't really hurt that much could it and maybe she had been to focused on work these days.

[blondeambition]

Kaley just smiled at her new found friend as within moments they stood in front of the man's locker room. She turned to her friend and reassured her once again.

"Look, it can't hurt to get acquainted with him at least. You said yourself he seemed interesting as well as nice to look at right? Well this is your chance to make sure you don't end up like the majority of the ladies around here all alone. Or even like someone like Ms. Michaels. Married but you never see her WITH her husband. You don't want that do you?"

[Steven Cross]

Sapphire had to admit that Kaley was right about what she had just said. Still she had the nagging feeling in the back of her mind that this might be something better done after the pay-per-view. Yet despite it all and with Kaley beside her urging her on Sapphire knocked on the door to Kasino's locker room.

I suppose you are right about that Kaley. I just hope that things aren't taken the wrong way here, I would hate for this to cause problems so close to the show.

She stood in front of the door waiting nervously, the redness in her cheeks from blushing still evident. She tried in vain to calm herself down before Kasino opened the door.

[Kasino Royale]

+Kasino had sat in the Royal Flush locker room, going over stacks of footage tapes getting ready for the Tag Team Turmoil event later tonight. He and his partner had every intention of walking out of Karma & Effect the newly crowned tag team champions. There was no doubt they had what it took but lately they had been on a downslide as far as wins and losses after almost two months undefeated. Those belts need to be taken off of those two absentees and they felt as if they were the ones to do it. +

+Suddenly a knock is heard at the door, and he quickly leaves the confines of the couch he sat on and makes his way to the door. Once there he opens it and notices Kaley immediately as a smile comes over his face. Then he turns and notices a woman he was yet to meet and gave her a quick once over before turning back to Kaley...+

[glow=red,2,300]What's up girl? What can Big K Dog do for you ladies today?[/glow]

[blondeambition]

Kaley smiles as she sees her long time friend open the door to his locker room. She stares up at the 6'10 giant of a man with a bright smile on her face as she places a hand on the back of Sapphire as if urging her forward to introduce herself to the Familia member.

"Hello Kevin. Nice to see you once again. I just stopped by to introduce you to a friend of mine who I thought you might want to meet. Kasino Royale?"

A slight nudge to Sapphire's back pushes her a few steps up as she grunts a bit out loud, the look of nervousness clearly on her face as she does.

"I'd like you to meet, Miss Sapphire Summers. One of the newest management acquisitions here in APW. Sapphire? Kasino Royale or Kevin as his friends call him."

[Steven Cross]

Somewhat nervously Sapphire looks at Kasino. He was almost as big as her client Mr. Cross, and there was no denying the fact that he did look handsome, still the nervousness just wouldn't go away.

Hello it's nice to meet you Kasino. I hope we are not interrupting anything if we are we can... This could always wait until later.

She watched him nervously the blush creeping into her cheeks again. She couldn't believe that she was doing this especially at this time but there was no turning back now.

[Kasino Royale]

+Kasino noticed the beauty before him and her demeanor once they made eye contact. The girl was nervous, that was obvious. He thought since she was indeed a fried of Kaley's she must have been cool so he side stepped as he adjusted his belt a bit as he spoke...+

[glow=red,2,300]Nice to meet you too...Sapphire? Exotic name you've got there...Most definitely different I gotta say that much...But ahhh...If you cool with Kaley you're cool with me so...How 'bout you ladies come in for a minute or two. I got some time before the show officially starts so...[/glow]

+With that he holds the door open for both women to enter the Royal Flush locker room, as well as receiving a quick eye wink from Kaley.+

[Steven Cross]

Sapphire smiled at the invite and stepped inside the locker room.

I suppose it couldn't hurt to just step inside for a minute or two and talk.

Sapphire stepped inside the locker room looking around as she did.

[blondeambition]

Kaley ushers Sapphire in a bit as she smiles at the interaction and clear chemistry between the two. Once inside, she makes herself to a nearby couch and makes herself comfortable on it as she gazes over to Sapphire and speaks up as Kasino is shutting the door behind them.

"Well don't be shy sugar, have a seat and get comfortable. I'm sure Kevin won't bite. Unless you want him to of course."

[Kasino Royale]

[glow=red,2,300]Ha Ha, alright Kaley don't scare the young lady now. It's all good if she's a little bit nervous. So at least let a player know a little bit about yourself. I ain't seen you around here so...You gotta be new here or something. So who long you been here in good ol' APW?[/glow]

[Steven Cross]

Sapphire sat down and made herself comfortable before answering Kasino's question.

So you would like to know a little about me okay. My name is Sapphire Summers and I just started working with APW as a manager at the start of this month, so far it has all been very interesting. I haven't had much time to socialize yet but I did meet Kaley here in the lounge and I guess she has decided to help me meet a few of the other people here in APW as well.

She didn't add that she knew Kaley had brought her here because she had mentioned that she thought Kasino was good looking. He seemed nice enough though, and she hoped that this first meeting went well.

[Kasino Royale]

[glow=red,2,300]Aiight, aiight. So you doing the managing thing huh? Hope you can keep up Sapphire. As long as Laura's out there, it's gonna be some tough competition for that top spot in managing. But by the looks of ya'?...I think you'll do alright here in the AP-Dub. Definitely got the look to keep clients "interested"...Heh Heh. But I'm tryin' to find out why Kaley thought it necessary to introduce us personally. Any idea on that Sapphire?[/glow]

[blondeambition]

Kaley had sat back and watched the two converse for a few moments, a smile remained on her face as she did so. It seemed that her little plan was indeed working in full force. The two of them were actually hitting it off without a hitch. So far that is.

Her observation is interrupted by the sound of her cell phone ringing in her purse, in which she quickly retrieves it and quickly looks to see who was attempting to contact her. Once the person's identity is varifed, she stands from the couch, smiling in the direction of the Sapphire in particular as she holds up a single finger signaling she'd be only a moment as she made her way towards the door, and into the corridor for this phone call.

[Steven Cross]

Sapphire blushed as Kasino asked why Kaley had thought it necessary to introduce the two of them.

Well as it turns out Kaley and I were talking about the men here in APW and who we thought was good looking and your name did come up during that conversation. I guess since it was me that first brought up your name that she decided it would only be fair if I got to meet you in person.

She was definitely blushing now, having told Kasino what she believed was the reason for the visit here.

[blondeambition]

Kaley held the phone firmly to her ear as she conversed with the calling party on the other end. Every once in a while glancing back at the door of the Royal Flush locker room.

"Yes. She's here now. Oh I think so, I do think so. What's that? Well whenever you see fit sir. No he hasn't arrived just yet. Well, I think they've hit it off quite well actually. Enough for what's about to come anyway. Oh? Anxious I see. We'll be ready when you are sir. Yes and we'll be expecting nothing short of such. We'll begin shortly then."

Kaley then ends the phone call and makes her way back to the door, stopping and pausing for a moment to flip her long blond hair from her vision as she grabs the doorknob and re-enters the locker room to find the two youngsters still conversing. She quietly enters and finds herself yet another seat away from the two of them, as she watches on yet makes it seem as if she wasn't. The smiles on their faces indicated that things were going just as "planned".

[Kasino Royale]

+Now we were getting to the juicy stuff. The smile on Kasino's face was priceless as he stepped forward a bit, now only a few feet from where the young lady sat on the couch in front of him. Folding his arms he continues on...+

[glow=red,2,300]Oh yeah? Now that's interesting to hear Sapphire. I gotta say that you are quite the sight to look at yourself. I'm sure the boys are lining up to get a crack at you already? But I guess that doesn't matter if you mentioned Big K Dog over all others now does it?[/glow]

[Steven Cross]

Sapphire laughed still slightly nervous. Although she her smile did brighten when Kasino complemented her looks.

Actually other than Kaley and a couple of others no one has really talked to me much yet. Although that is most likely because I've been so busy working that I haven't had time to just get out and relax much. What about you though I imagine you must have your fair share of ladies trying to get you to notice them, you are quite the sight to look at yourself.

Sapphire actually found herself hoping that Kasino answered back that there were not many women chasing him at this point.
