Love not Luvve!

Mercy had been padding away at her cell phone in such a way that it sounded like she was typing out Morse Code.

*Beep-Beep-Beep* *Beeeep-Beeeep* *Beeeep-Beeeep* *click* *click* *Beeeep-Beeeep* *Beep-Beep-Beep* *Beeeep-Beeeep* *click* *click*

Mercy closed her cell phone again and sighed. The next person on Aurelia's list of up and coming talent was Brittany Luvve. Mercy had dreaded this so much that she had dialed half of the girl's number about 30 times. She had thought that her encounter with Taylor would have ended badly and it, by some miracle, ended out to be something rather pleasant. But Brittany was a different beast. In all the research she had done, she had never once not seen the girl wear anything that wasn't an angry scowl or sick, sadistic grin. Mercy was also fairly certain that Brittany might actually die if she didn't use the word 'bitch' at least once in every sentence she spoke.

Mercy shivered at the thought of having to deal with such a horrible woman. Still, she was now getting paid to do just that. Thanks, Rally. She thought as she furrowed her brow and dialed Brittany's number in full. It rang briefly and she was greeted with exactly the kind of voice she would have expected to come from the petulant woman.

"Who the hell is calling me on my day off?"

Mercy's eyes widened at the words. She quickly opened her mouth to speak again but was stymied by Brittany's annoyance.

"Who the fuck is this and what do you want?"

Mercy winced and stammered out her answer. "Uh... um... Is this .. Brittany Luvve? My Name is Mercy Wrenn, I work for the AFW Management." She said in a meek tone.

"Yes this is Brittany Luvve. Now what the fuck do you want?"

Mercy cringed and pulled the phone away before hurriedly making her case. "Uhhh! Well... you see... More specifically I represent Aurelia Fortuna, the Chief Manager of Talent Relations." Mercy paused and smoothed her suit down with her free hand. She couldn't let herself be intimidated by this girl! She had one trick that she could play and she tried it. "You know... one of your bosses. I want to meet up with you and have a talk concerning your future in the AFW."

Mercy heard Brittany sigh on the other end and she let herself smile in silent victory. But Brittany was determined to crush Mercy's hopes and dreams with her surly attitude.

"Look I don't care who the fuck you are or who the fuck you work for."

You should! I could have you fired! Mercy thought as she opened her mouth to speak, only to be shut up by Brittany's big mouth again.

"You know what fine. I'll meet you somewhere but your buying the food or the deal is off."

Mercy's eyes widened at Brittany's response and she quickly shot out a retort, barely even thinking about what she was saying other than the words that ran through her mind while she talked. Meet her in a public place! Meet her in a public place! Meet her in a public place! "W-Wait, what!? I never said there was food involved! Hey! You know your future is hanging in the balance?! You can't just start making demands! I will meet you at Sunny Diner in an hour and you pay for your own!"

*Click*

Mercy quickly hung up on Brittany and closed her phone. She bent over and panted. It had gone far worse than she had imagined. She just hoped that meeting Brittany in a public place like the Sunny Diner would keep her from being killed by the deranged woman. Mercy looked through her purse and made sure that she had her company credit card on hand. If Brittany somehow forced her into paying, at least she wouldn't be spending her own money. With that thought in mind, she hailed a cab and made her way to the Sunny Diner. A quaint, American style fast food place. Something she came to find comforting her in the strange land of Japan. Something that reminded her of her home in New York.

Mercy ended up at the diner and got a table in the most centric part of the restaurant. She needed as many witnesses as she could muster to keep this tyrannic nutjob at bay. She took a menu and looked it over. She ordered a diet soda for now, knowing that she would have to wait for a while. She needed the time to think of what, exactly, she was going to say to this woman.

Brittany put her phone away with a scowl on her face as Mercy hung up on her "Who the fuck does she think she is?" Brittan said as she walked down the street "Who dare she hang up on me and treat me like i am a nobody." Brittany continued to rant and rave a she walked down the street with people giving her weird looks "Fine if she wants to be a bitch then she can wait for me to arrive." Brittany said as she decided to take her time getting to the meeting.

Fifteen minutes after the time when Mercy told Brittany to meet her, Brittany finally decided to show up "Alright, now where is this bitch who thinks she can boss me around." Brittany said as she looked around for Mercy but Brittany had no clue what the girl looked like "That bitch better not have left before i got here." Brittany said with an angry scowl on her face.

Mercy sat sipping on her diet soda for a long while, checking her watch every five minutes or so. She let out a sigh and ordered another soda. She'd sipped it like a bird and still managed to suck it down completely to the ice. Now her stomach was rumbling as it approached fifteen minutes past the appointed time.

"Figures." Mercy said as she leaned on the table, and blew a lock of pink hair out of her face. "She's a real model of class and professionalism." It was then that she realized that she never actually told Brittany who she was meeting. She was used to her bright pink hair singling her out from the crowds. She pulled out her cell phone to begin typing out a text when she saw a belligerent blonde maniac barge through the door.

Mercy stood up straight away and stiffened her body, coming over to greet Brittany with a handshake, using both of her hands to take one of Brittany's. "Miss Luvve, I presume?" She said with the tightest, friendliest smile she could muster.

Geeze, she just gives off bitch from a mile away, doesn't she? Mercy thought as she tried to butter up to Brittany with a friendly attitude. "I'm Mercy Wrenn, assistant to the Chief Manager of Talent Relations, Aurelia Fortuna! How are you this afternoon? Please.. have a seat!" She swept a hand forward to where her table was as she hoped a little bit of ass kissing might help her out. "Y-you're looking quite lovely today!" She chirped as her voice cracked at the end.

Brittany was still looking around when a pink haired girl came up and grabbed her hand "So i guess your the one who invited me here?" Brittany said as she took her hand back from Mercy "Yes, yes i bet your real important and stuff. Now why did you call me out here on my day off?" Brittany said as she walked over to the table and sat down.

"Why i always look lovely but thank you for noticing." Brittany said as she just seemed to absorb Mercy's compliments "Well you seem sensible i think i can forgive you if you pay for the meal." Brittany said as she seemed to become less of a bitch the more Mercy complimented "Now why did you call me out here? Also i suggest you don't try threatening me like you did on the phone, i promise it won't end well for you." Brittany said with a evil smile on her face as she looked at Mercy.

Mercy sat down with Brittany and smiled as the girl seemed to lighten up from the compliments. Still, she seemed to be daring Mercy to do anything to put her back into bitch mode. Mercy squeezed her hand under the table. She wish she had a stress ball or something while she dealt with this woman. Mercy ground her teeth while she smiled and nodded at Brittany. It was all she cuold do but at that last threat, Mercy had to at least lay out a few cards ont he table.

"Yes, well.." She said as she adjusted her glasses. "I certainly wasn't threatening you. I was just making a point. You do have bosses, you know." She added dryly. "And... are you going to just... beat me up in front of everyone or something!?" She added as she pointedly looked around at the staff and her fellow patrons. "M-Miss Luvve, I understand that in the ring you can do as you like but outside of the ring there are still rules and laws!"

Mercy let out a sigh and grabbed a menu and flipped through it absent mindedly. She had known what she was ordering for a half hour already."That IS part of the reason why I wanted to meet with you. Ms. Fortuna, Rally, wanted me to meet with and speak to some of the up and coming Friction Talent. I've already had one meeting and went well, I was hoping that they would all be so nice." She said, saying the last words as if they were a hint to pass onto Brittany.

Brittany continued to smile evilly at Mercy as the girl seemed to be a little tense about this meeting "Why, yes i do know that i have bosses but i really don't care. The only person who can tell me what to do is myself." Brittany said as she picked up the menu and looked through what she wanted "Oh and don't worry i wouldn't beat you up in public. That would just be mean and unladylike. I would wait until you were alone to hurt you." Brittany said as her evil smile widened.

Brittany would continue to look through the menu as Mercy continued to talk "well that sounds nice and all but why couldn't this Ms. Fortuna meet me in person?" Brittany asked as she ordered a drink and something to eat "And i bet this will be a nice meeting as long as you want it to be nice." Brittany said in a nice tone but in a very threatening manner.

Mercy wrinkled her eyebrow at Brittany. What a stuck up, hoebag. She thought as she inspected the woman. Mercy heard Brittany's threat and shivered a bit. Well, it was easier said than done to get Mercy alone. She knew where Brittany could be found and Mercy was pretty sure the same could not be said for herself and Brittany. Besides, she had gotten pretty good at ducking the roided up silver haired gorilla that was constantly stomping up and down the halls of the AFW management. "You should care."
Mercy said with an indignant mutter. How could Brittany NOT? Mercy had spent half her life trying to kiss her bosses asses and care for them like they were her own children. Doing that was the way to get them in your corner. It was a way for them to turn their back on you so you could put the knife in and step over them and take their position. Mercy let the threats pass and ordered a house salad with Lite dressing on the side.

Once the ordering was settled, Mercy got back to the task at hand. "You WILL be meeting with her. Tomorrow in afternoon. You have an appointment. But I was told to have a chat with you as well. I guess my opinion matters." Mercy allowed herself to lift her head, close her eyes and shake her chin at Brittany childishly. As far as she was concerned the Sunny Diner was hallowed ground and and she felt Brittany's eternal daring smirk to dull into the background a bit.

She took a sip from her soda and then looked up at Brittany. "I really don't understand how someone like you can even manage to get through a day. How are you not just constantly in a fight with someone? Probably that you started." She muttered that last part under her breath. "I mean... What happens if you WERE fired from AFW. It's not like it hasn't almost happened already... How could you even manage to ... succeed in the real world?" Mercy asked the pointed question with genuine curiosity. "I can't even imagine you having to get through a real job interview..."

Brittany just sat at the table smiling at Mercy as the girl talked and talked "Oh, sorry what was that? I wasn't paying attention." Brittany said as she was just trying to piss off Mercy just to see what the girl would do. "Hey i wanted to ask, how do you manage to get anywhere with your nose shoved so far up your bosses ass. I mean when she takes a sharp turn you must break your nose in at least three places." Brittany said as she smiled remained on her face.

Brittany then sat up in her chair and looked directly into Mercy's eyes "I have survived in the real world and i can have a very successful career. Also i'm rich as hell." Brittany said as she did have quite a large fortune she could live off of for a while.

Mercy adjusted her glasses at Brittany's words and instantly reached into her pocket and began to skip through the songs on her MP3 player until she [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuIHwiKVI7Y&feature=related:8gbigl1w]found something[/url:8gbigl1w] that suited her irritated mood. This was certainly the most impossible woman she had met so far. And she had met a lot of impossible women in her day! "I'm working hard so that I can succeed, thank you very much! I know you don't really care how well you do in life, but I do!" Mercy shook her head and narrowed her eyes at Brittany.

She was about to speak when she suddenly shut her mouth and smiled at the girl. She had remembered the lesson her father had taught her and she realized that she had not been practicing her ultimate creed with this woman! She had been so obnoxious that she just wanted to pick back at her. But that wouldn't do very well. "So..." She said as the food arrived and she began to pick at her salad. "How did you come by all that money? You said you could survive int he real world, you must have worked quite hard to get it. Now you're just wrestling because you've made so much money that you can do whatever you want, right?" She questioned as she dipped a leaf in her dressing and nibbled on it.

Brittany sipped on her drink as Mercy seemed to begin to freak out but as Mercy calmed down Brittany frowned a little "Well if you must know my parents are very rich and most of my money i got from them but i also have a bit of money i earned myself by selling clothing that i designed. I mean who d oyou think made my ring costume?" Brittany said as she picked up her sandwich and took a bite. "And yes i can do anything i want when i wrestle because who is going to stop me, you, the fans. I don't think so."

Brittany then took another sip of her drink and smiled at Mercy "And why do you think you can say whatever you want to me and threaten me? Is it because you work for MY boss?"" Brittany said putting emphasis on My as she talked to Mercy "Or is it because you just think your high and mighty and that everyone is beneath you?"
