The thin white linnen curtains dance around in the wind like a slender ballerina dancing on the tip of her toes as elegant as a russian ballet dancer from the 18th century dancing in The Swan Lake. The cool Pittsburgh breeze flows around the room causing goosebumps to rise on the exposed body of Rose Thorn. Her body still, all except the short breaths that cause her chest to heave up and down. Her lightly tanned skin back bare with the white bed sheets covering just her buttocks. One arm above her head and the other resting on her fiance's broad chest. Her hand resting on a light coating of fur that is his chest hair. The moon shines through the open window. The faint sounds of car alarms and fire trucks can be heard through the downtown hustle and bustle. Her body now chilled from the icey air she begins to move in her sleep with little groans coming from her mouth as if in pain. Sudenly her eyes open wide filled with sadness and fear. She quickly looks around now accepting it was all a dream and she's in the room she closed her eyes in. she turns herself around now laying on her back with the covers pulled up to keep her ample chest warm. Her breaths slow down as she squints her eyes looking at the alarm clock which seems as bright as the sun after having her eyes closed for two hours. Only five forty. She shakes her head at the time now ready to take anything on especially after a dream which caused her adrenaline to pulsate around her cardio-vascular system. She thinks hard about her dream trying to remember every little detail. The auburn haired Genocide diva is running through a building filled with black bellowing smoke which fills her lungs till her body gyrates from a coughing fit. With her last step she crashes through the floor boards landing hard in the middle of a ring of fire. With tears in her eyes she reaches forward burning her hand on the flickering flames. But still she pushes through burning each and every inch of her body till her skin cracks and bubbles under the intense heat. Her screams would echo through the room if the flames were not making such a deafening noise. With her hand only a few inchs away from her goal she fails and as her body takes in its last breath, her real body shudders to reality as she had woken up. With a confused expression she looks around the room with the urge to cough she lets it out. Only a small cough that barely makes a noise or atleast not enough noise to wake her dead to the world fiance. She closes her eyes and lays back trying to think more about her dream. 'What as i reaching for?' she asks herself as she tightly squeezes her eyes shut in hopes of remembering. After a few moments of silence it hits her and her dream comes back to her. With her hand a few inches away from her goal she screams aloud one last time trying to muster the strength to reach it. Her hands brush against the scolding gold of her SKCW Womens World championship that lays upon a chair in flames. Her eyes gaze at it as if it the most important thing to her, as if sacred. She reaches for it as if trying to save it like you would a crying baby or elderly grandparent. Her eyes open once again. Her green eyes slowly look around the room and with a sense of sadness and loss she gets up out of her bed. She grabs her night gown and puts it on alowing the smooth silky texture rub against her chilled body. Her attention quickly drawn to the window and the various sounds from outside that seem to flood her hotel room with noise polution. She shakes her head and closes the window causing the curtains dancing to end. The white linnen now lays there limp like a old lettuce leaf. She takes a deep breath and presses her head against the window. "Even twelve stories high and I can still hear the commotion at ground level" The Womens World Champion utters softly still half asleep. "This is nothing like Texas... or Northampton." Her eyes quickly glance to her right noticing her fiance, Aj Styles, stirring in bed. With a large yawn he sits up rubbing his eyes. His hair a little messy causing a light laugh to leave Rose's lips. "babe, whats up... why are you awake?" still yawning he enquires. She turns her head giving AJ the view of her profile. She half smiles at the man she loves and responds slowly "I had a dream..." She now turns her entire body. Now facing AJ she leans against the wall placing her hands against the windowsill. "Or a nightmare. Whatever you wish to call it". "A nightmare?" AJ asks. "What happened in this 'Nightmare' then Poppet?" She thought again briefly ensuring she remembered every detail. "I couldn't remember at first but it came to me." She takes a deep breath "I was running through this building filled with smoke trying to find something. Something prescious." AJ spins his body on the bed so his feet dangle over the edge of the bed. "What was it?" "Well I couldnt find it and i was growing more and more panic'd. I fell through some floor boards into this pit of fire and I could see the thing prescious to me. I reached and reached but just couldnt get to it. My body began to burn. It felt so real I could feel my skin bubbling from the heat. Those flames were so hot" She slowly slides her body down the wall untill she reaches a sitting position. "It was my championship" "Oh" he replies not quite knowing what to say. "I was trying to save my championship. I can't help but think the flames... the fire.... Was it Zoe Mason?" Rose lowers her head. "I dont understand Rose." AJ gets up and walks over to his fiance. He kneels down infront of her and places his hands on the back of her neck rubbing slowly. Rose looks up to her lover and their eyes meet. "I do not doubt my ability in the ring AJ but I do doubt if i could overcome Zoe Mason." Rose lowers her head once again and mumbles "She is fresher than me and look at her she holds three of the lower championships on Genocide." "Exactly, the LOWER championships. She doesnt hold YOUR championship and I have 100 percent faith in you that the Womens World title will stay yours after Pyschotic Games and even for a long time after that." AJ lifts Rose's head up and smiles at her. "Thanks AJ. But it makes sense. Im running through this building and its filled with flames and they are stopping me from saving the gold. Something so prescious to me. Its like my child." Rose shakes her head and pushes AJ's arms away from her. She stands up and spins on her heels looking out the window once again. "I can't loose the belt this quickly. Im not a Torrie Wilson. I am not a Stacy Mason. I have worked too damn hard to get this championship and I couldnt bare seeing it around someone elses waist this soon." "Well it's not going to happen is it?" AJ stands up and wraps his arms around Rose. She soon feels safe within his arms and the flames from her dream seem like a distant memory. "Your my champion, your the peoples champion. Zoe is a fantastic woman but she is No Rose Thorn. there is NO ONE that matchs you, Rose." "Your suppose to say that." She turns around facing her fiance. Now her arms wrap around his neck as she goes onto tip toes. "Your suppose to lie to me." She presses her body against his and soon their lips meet. "Lie to me some more" AJ pulls Rose in close nearly squeezing the air out of her. "You should know by now I never lie" Aj kisses Rose's forhead and then looks at her again. "You probably just drank too much tonight. It's messing with your mind." "Maybe" she simply replies. "I wouldnt be suprised if Zoe slipped something into your drink. You know what you two are like with your practical jokes." AJ half smiles trying to get a reaction from Rose. "nah she wouldnt" she still looks down. As if trying to think. "What are you thinking of now?" He asks. Rose looks up at Styles "How calm and collected she looked tonight. She was with Ryan Cage like she had not a single care in the world. Could she really be that cool with the situation?" "she has nothing to lose" AJ respond quick. "I suppose. I guess i should go back to sleep. I have to hit the gym in the morning and then tomorrow night im doing my in-ring promo for SkCW. I need to make sure im not dying from tireness before I leave the door." Rose half smiles. "I'll make sure i make... well order us a big breakfast. You'll need the energy. |
