(splz) No satisfying some people... (o2a)

Lauren had her hand raised by the referee but she pulled away as he repeatedly tried to raise it, almost like she didn't want the victory. Odd behavior and Lauren Kennedy were no strangers and her mood swings had been seen by the Action Packed fans... Lauren walks over to Scarlett and the fans cheer as they think she has more punishment to deliver... but instead she raises her hands above her waist and shakes them a little

"I'm sorry Scar... I didn't mean to cause you any pain"

Lauren moves slowly toward the ropes, dropping to her knees and rolling out of the ring looking back at Scarlett Lauren has tears in her eyes, looking very despondent Lauren slowly begins to walk up the ramp, stopping only to look back at Scarlett and muttering "I'm Sorry" over and over. Turning around for the final time and removing the band from her hair, she glances over to a young female fan who asks "What's wrong?" Lauren approaches her and reaching from the ramp pats her head

"Don't worry about me... I'm... I'm... fine"

Lauren then continues to walk up the ramp, the fan is now more confused, standing there in her Lauren Kennedy shirt she doesn't know what to think about how her heroine is acting. Lauren goes behind the curtain leaving many confused over her actions, and backstage Lauren remained the same as she made her way to the locker room none daring to approach her, not for fear of attack but for not wanting to open that can of worms.

Lauren gets into the locker room and it only has a few people in it so she carries on with her normal routine, showering and getting changed. In the shower there was no singing, no after match entertainment as many had grown fond of her singing. Lauren dries herself, gets dressed and grabs her bag ready to leave. She pushes the door open...

[Scarlett Rose]

"HEY LAUREN!" Scarlett says bombastically, smiling, her arms crossed as she's dressed completely in casual attire, a white blouse and dark blue jean shorts. No, no, Scarlett wasn't waiting for the time Lauren was exiting the locker room area, she was more-or-less waiting for Jennifer, but nevertheless, Lauren was out first, and rather then giving her the cold shoulder, why not give her something a little more on the opposite end of the spectrum? Grabbing her bag which was sitting on a bench, Scarlett walks over to what she assumes is a surprised Lauren, and wraps her free arm around her shoulders. "Long time to no chat, yes?" The aroma of fresh shampoo put a smile on Scarlett's face. "And fresh of the shower, I love that."

[Jennifer Drew]

Meanwhile

Completely unbeknownst to them Jennifer was stepping out of the shower herself.

“Break my collar and elbow tie up will you? Jeez, what would Frank Gotch say? “

She'd have thought that out loud but it seemed kind of pointless to get all incredulous about the match now. Plus it would require her caring for another few milliseconds and that was just more energy than she was prepared to waste. She plopped down on a locker room bench and started getting dressed. She had picked something special, a T-shirt and track pants, from her famous “going from the arena to the Tower” collection.

Lauren wasn't entirely comfortable with Scarlett's new found friendliness, but she didn't just shrug Scarlett off. The confused woman didn't know really what to do, part of her wanted to believe Scarlett and her were on track, but the other part felt that it was a trick just to hurt her. Lauren give a very nervous smile back to Scarlett

"Yeah... long time no chat... and I took your advice and bought that shampoo... I just love the smell of it... Great find my... friend?"

Lauren could barely get that sentence out, her nerves getting the better of her...
