Strange Things Afoot

Fate was surprised to see Alaina stand. “Err, I didn’t mean right this moment.” Before she could continue she yawned. “I meant later on, but I would like that yes.” She knew that Alaina and her mom would have some ring time before Alaina went back, so it be a matter if her thing with Alaina happened before or after, but she didn’t feel the need to iron out that detail at that exact moment. “Whenever before you go back is alright."

“Thanks” Fate told her before leaving the room. How Alaina was going to fit all of that in before going back Fate didn’t know, nor felt like questioning at this hour. As much as she had her own matters do deal with, which Alaina was helping with a bit, Fate felt that the main thing was her mother doing better. If it would last would be another story, but as of now she had the feeling things would be alright.

When it came time for the ladies to head out in the morning, strongly Kelly wasn’t ready. He went to see what was keeping her, and was surprised to see she was still in bed. He felt like waking her, but decided to leave her be, feeling with how she’s been it might be a nice change for her to sleep in once in a while. She offered Alaina a lift to where their training center is, informing her Kelly will meet them there.

About an hour and a half later, Kelly finally woke up. She proceeded to prepare herself for the day, unaware of how behind she was. Things were quite, but didn’t feel too quiet, at least not right away. After showering and getting dressed, it didn’t occur to her that she was the only one there. As she was eating, she did get a slight feeling things were a tad on the noise side, but not to the level where it was a concern. As she cleaned up from her late breakfast, the current broadcast on the radio mentioned the time, and at first she didn’t give it a thought, but soon after it hit her…”Fuck.”

She rushed to grab her workout clothing and drove off. Luckily for her, as quick as she tried to be, didn’t end up being pulled over, though she dodged a couple of bullets along the way. When she arrived she hurried inside. She took a moment to catch her breath, as well as observe what was going on, which in front of her she saw Wes working with a bunch of their students.

Wes had a feeling she’d show up, it was just a matter of when she’d get up and how fast she’d get here. He simply smiles in her direction before going back to what he was doing. Kelly doesn’t say anything verbally towards him, nor Alaina for that comment, but does her a ‘yeah, right’ look’. Before she goes to change, she does go to Wes to see if any office business by her needed to be done first. He mentions there are a couple of things to attend to, but nothing important that has to be done right now.

She goes to get ready, and like she did when she woke up, she takes her time, but isn’t anywhere near as long from when she woke up to when she noticed she was late. Putting on simple workout clothing, she prepared herself before heading out there. While she did that, Wes had a moment to ask Alaina “So what are you two planning on doing exactly? Whatever it is try not to make her overdo it so soon.” He knew Kelly was a competitive one, and would want to get back into that mindset asap, but knowing the in-ring history the two ladies have, he didn’t want Kelly to take things too hard and risk injury and create another setback as she was about to get her feet wet again.

“I knew you two would be doing something together, but remember with her a simple workout spar can turn into a pay per view main event if the right buttons are pressed.” It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Alaina, she was completely fine as far as he was concerned, but knowing how his wife views and treats this profession was something he learned not to overlook.

”That said, need someone to officiate, or you two going to police yourselves?”
