She did it. She successfully defended that Rose title she so much deserved. Laura's hands immediately begin clapping as Kenisha's theme music blares from the PA system as her hand is raised in victory. She was as proud as she could ever be for someone besides herself. This was something Kenisha deserved as well as had coming for quite a long time. She had watched the contest from just beyond the curtain where a few more superstars were located as well and was impressed and felt the need to finally congratulate her best friend on her title win and successful defense, seeing as how she let her personal problems interfere with doing so before.
A few minutes pass and she could see on the monitor in front of her that Kenisha was fast approaching the stage, the title still in her hand as she smiled and waived to the masses in the crowd. Within moments, Kenisha was emerging through the curtain and Laura made sure to make eye contact with her, seeing that Kenisha's facial expression was close to that of someone who had seen a ghost. She smiled at her long time friend as she spoke up with...
[glow=red,2,300]"You looked really good out there champ. I wonder if anyone's gonna ever take that gold from you."
[/glow]

Kenisha stops dead in her tracks at the sight of her good friend Laura De'Icco. It's been a good while since she had seen this woman face to face. She didn't exactly know why she hadn't seen her friend in a long time. It might have been that Laura was busy. It might have been that Kenisha was busy. It was unclear to what the deal was between the two women not hanging out with each other in recent weeks, but it was about that time to get back in touch with her. That expression on her face of seeing a ghost, slowly but surely turns into that kindhearted smile that is usually on Kenisha's face. She was glad to see her friend. Laura seemed to be doing well. Word has gotten around the locker room what's been happening behind closed doors. Kenisha heard about Vegas and his backstage fling with Destiny Knight. It was good to see that Laura was in a good mood at the moment. She hadn't been able to see the match she had with that hussy Destiny Knight, but from the looks of it... Laura seemed to have gotten the better of her tonight. That was good. Real good. Once Kenisha arrived face to face with Laura, the first thing that she said to reply to her was...
"Hehe. I'm begging for someone to come and TRY to take this from me. I believe a little of Adrian is rubbing off on me."
She giggled to herself as she knew very well Laura would indeed have a comment for that one.

[glow=red,2,300]"Oh god here we go with the egos again. Feels like "family" all over again. *Giggles* But seriously 'Nisha, you've been doing really good out there in that ring against these ladies lately. I gotta say I'm proud of you and...Even though it's later than it should be. Congratulations on the Rose Title win. I'm...I'm sorry for not getting in contact with you sooner. I know there's no excuse for that but, it's just been crazy lately and I..." [/glow] Her words trail off as she almost loses track of what she was about to say. Her eyes say it all though. Their best friends, there's no way she could hide what was going on with her. Not even if she tried.

Kenisha knew exactly what it was that was going on in Laura's life. People talk. People hear things. People talk some more. Word of mouth is really something, isn't it?
"Hehe. Thanks but there's no ego here. It's just that no one seems to be stepping up to the plate around these parts. Makes me believe these girls either fear me or they fear Adrian. I don't know."
She shrugs her shoulders.
"But it's alright Laura. It's alright. I understand completely what you've been going through. It's not everyday that you hear your best friend slaps the hell out of another woman over sleeping with their men. Well... not in this company that is. I've known what's been going on with you Laura. Word gets around, you know? Gossip gets around the locker room like wildfire. I hope everything is okay with you girl."

She couldn't help but smile as she lowers her head towards the floor, just as she and Kenisha had turned and begun making their way down the hallway to...Somewhere or another. It really didn't matter to Laura at that time as she walked alongside her best friend, attempting to think of what to say to her after not seeing her for so long. But if felt good to be around the one person who seemed to always understand what was going on with you. She speaks up as they walk along slowly down the corridor...
[glow=red,2,300]"I'm...Fine I guess. I gotta admit to it feeling good to finally get my hands around Dez's neck...Even though it really wasn't HER fault, I guess it's a start...I guess I just needed a bit of time away from...Well...Everyone actually. Just time to think and figure out where I'm going to go from here on out. Cause quite frankly girl, I have NO idea where I wanna go now. Do I wanna stay here? Do I wanna try Detroit? Do I wanna try Ohio or New York or...Do I wanna even continue managing or try my hand at wrestling once and for all like I was trained to do? I mean... Do I wanna even continue on IN this business anymore? Just a LOT of questions and not a lot of answers is all I guess."[/glow]

Kenisha nodded her head as she listened to Laura's words. It's got to be hell to hear how a man that you've loved for so long just up and elopes with another woman. A heartbreak like that can only drive a woman nuts. Kenisha was completely understanding to how Laura had felt. Hell, if she had the courage to tell 187 how she felt, it worked, they became an item, and later on down the line 187 was with another woman? Kenisha would have done the same thing. She'd be more than willing to hop a table and choke someone. Once Laura finishes her sentence, Kenisha looks over at her with that same smile on her face and shakes her head...
"Come on now, girl. Leave APW? If you leave APW, you're only going to be letting her get what she wants. I don't think you want that, now do you? I certainly don't think the Laura I met so long ago was willing to just give up so easily now. I know times are rough now Laura. I know that this situation you're in has been more than just a nightmare. It has been more than just a living hell. I don't blame you for being confused right now. I don't blame you for what you've done. What you do NOT need to do however, is to go anywhere. You need to stay here in APW and handle your business girl. You need to make you that you go out there and make things right. Don't give in and let this woman get what she wants. 'Cause if you leave now, you'll be giving her what she wants. She wants you to leave so that she can have him all to herself. Now I know the Laura I know and love isn't going to let that fly, now is she?"
She says with that smile on her face. Hopefully trying to spark that fire in Laura that gives her the will and the fight she needs in order to make things right again here in what she was hoping to conisder home all those monthes ago when APW's doors opened.

Indeed She had seemingly lit a bit of the fire back into Laura with her words. At least enough to get a giant smile on her face as Kenisha wrapped her arm around her shoulder, opening the door to her locker room with her free arm as Laura replied...
[glow=red,2,300]"I see what you're saying 'Nisha, I do. I guess...I can at least think a bit more about it all. I mean you're right. It WOULD be giving her what she wants exactly. I'm sure she doesn't want me around APW at all. I mean I was with him for almost a year so there's gotta be something there if she wants me gone right? The only thing that worries me 'Nisha...And I know it shouldn't at this point in time but..."[/glow]
She stops as her words trail off momentarily, watching as Kenisha made her way across the room laying her title across a chair in front of the couch in her locker room. She didn't continue on until her friend turned back around and made eye contact with her again...
[glow=red,2,300]"What if...That's what HE wants too?"[/glow]

Kenisha begins to shake her head slightly. She couldn't believe what Vegas had done to her friend. She didn't ever expect him to do such a thing to Laura. It never seemed that their was any problem when she had been to his mansion. She was here for Laura though. She had to be. When situations like this arise, the only thing a woman has is her friends.
"I don't know about that now Laura. I'm sure that's not the case. It may have just been the temptation of the moment. You know how guys get when they got some smut waving their butts in the air at them. They get like dogs with that little pink thing hanging out between their legs. You know? Hehe. I'm sure that he doesn't want you gone. He just made a mistake. Atleast that's what I'm hoping."
She paused for a moment as she had taken a seat down on her couch. Kenisha figured that if Vegas did want Laura gone for whatever reason it may be, she would need to touch up on that as well. She didn't want her best friend to leave because of a something like a relationship problem. She knew for a fact that Laura was stronger than that.
"However... if that is the case, and he does infact want you to begone from here. I wouldn't leave regardless of that. I'd stay here in spite of what he wants. Then make sure every waking moment of his life was a living hell for what he had done to you. You know? How's that old saying go again? Payback is a... b***h? Hehe"

A mistake? Could that be? I mean...Leaving the iron plugged up is a mistake. Drinking the last coke out of the fridge when it wasn't yours is a mistake. But infidelity?...Laura wasn't quite sure about that one or even remotely optimistic if that was even possible with a man like Cross Genevese.
She stared across to her friend for a few seconds, thinking over her words about him making a mistake. Pondering the possibility of it being just a case of temptation sent his way at the right moment in time. Just his primal manly urges taking over even. Did that make it alright? Did that mean she should forgive and forget and go back and get HER man, despite Destiny's claims of somthing different? She didn't know. She had no answers. Just question on top of question.
[glow=red,2,300]"Make his life a living hell? Not sure about that 'Nisha. Not even sure I could. That's really his specialty when you think about it but...Then again, I can't just let things end like this can I? Maybe I should try to talk to him? No, no...That's stupid. I think..."[/glow]

Kenisha shrugged her shoulders as she didn't know what to tell Laura. She didn't know the whole story. She had only heard from one person to another. You know how that goes. As a story gets passed around, it could end being altered or exaggerated by numerous people depending on how long it's been passing through. Kenisha didn't know what the full story was. She could only give what she thinks is the right answer.
"True. A mistake would be hard to believe, but it's a possiblity that you can't rule out. I'm not saying that it is a mistake for sure, it's only possible that it may have been a heat of the moment type of thing. I think you should just have a good sit down with Vegas. Have a nice long talk with him about the situation from start to finish. Figure out the entire story from him. From the time that Destiny Knight had made her move on Vegas to the point when you found out about it."

Laura's eyes bug out a bit as she looks at Kenisha and replies...
[glow=red,2,300]"The whole story? Wow...I'm...I'm not even sure I want to hear that. Much less handle it. I don't want to get too much information on that whole...Thing. Maybe just how they hooked up. And why...Oh screw it. "[/glow]
Frustration had begun to set in a bit for Laura just talking about it. She thought that maybe a night away from it all could put things back in perspective for her. She stood from her seat, exhaling a deep breath as she once again made eye contact with her friend.
[glow=red,2,300]"I don't know. I'll figure something out but...There are other things that need to be handled as well 'Nisha. Like celebrating your Rose title win a few weeks ago. I know it's kind of late but...If you'd be willing to make the time we could do something to celebrate it? But only if you want to now."[/glow]

It was worth a shot. Kenisha turned her attention to her title with a smile on her face. It was about time someone gave her a proper congratulations. Of course, there was Michelle Tosso who had gave her a small congratulations after her match. But an entire party just for her? That sounded nice. She nodded her head with that smile on her face. She would like that very much. Kenisha turns her attention back to Laura and nodded her head once again.
"A party? All for me? That sounds good. I'm sure I've got time to do so. You know how busy I am around here. I'm constantly on the microphone addressing issues. With the millions and millions of people lining up at my locker room door for title shots just begging to take this title away from me. I'm sure I can squeeze you into my schedule. Hehe."
She laughed slightly at what she said. It was a joke, of course. Little to no one was gunning for her title in the past week, which was a shocker to her. She didn't know what the deal was. Maybe the Roses now feared her or something. But how can you fear one of the nicest people in APW? It was rather strange.

[glow=red,2,300]"Good.*Giggles* Jason's throwing one for Sarah in a few days so I figure why not make it a joint effort? That way we all can enjoy it together. *Giggles* Well, it's official then. Tonight we rest up from the show and tomorrow? We plan the party that will ensure we need MORE time to rest up later on."[/glow]
Laura wasted no time in making her way over to her friend, a smile on her face as she threw her arm around her shoulder and sighed a breath of relief. Maybe things could be salvaged from this point on out. At least being back with her friend was a decent start anyway. I guess we'll see won't we?
