I listened to the cheering crowd of the WWE Universe, as I sat nervously in the girls locker room just staring at myself in front of the large mirror. My stomach was already turning itself into multiple knots, and it wasn't helping that I was desperately craving a cigarette right now to help calm my nerves.

''It's only the Dark Match Faith, you can do this'' I said out loud, trying to console myself into being brave...but at the same time it is your first match, so this is still a pretty big night. But you can do it Faith...you can do it...you can do it...I thought, continuing to stare at my reflection in the mirror.

I was feeling everything right now, nerves...excitement...more nerves!

I didn't want to admit it to myself, not yet anyway, but I really kinda wished that Rom...-

KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!

I jumped, and weakly made my way to the door...it was Paige.

''Oh my gawd, your big debuts here!'' she screeched, jumping on me and almost knocking me to the floor. Her excitement instantly gave me the boost I needed to push any nerves I had aside, and concentrate on my excitement instead.

''I know, I can't believe it! And I can't freakin' WAIT!'' I said, jumping up and down with her now.

''You make sure to kick Summer's ass nice and good for me...for us!'' winked.

''Believe me, Summer's not gonna threaten me again, not after tonight'' I stated proudly, while giving Paige a big high five.

''Wooo hoooo'' she screamed at the top of her lungs, and I burst into fits of laughter.

''Ok girl, we gotta get you all polished up'' she said, immediately sitting me down again before fussing over and dollifying up me like a fun sister would, as she started straightening out my hair and outfit, while re-touching up my makeup for me.

''This outfit is sooo cool babe'' Paige said, flopping down on the locker room bench to examine me ''and the colour looks absolutely awesome on you too!'' she gushed, and I stood up and spun round in the middle of the locker room for her to get a good look. I was wearing purple and black body tight hot pants, with a matching bra top all encrusted with dalmontes, along with purple glittery boots that Stephanie and I had agreed on in our meeting.

''Ooh yes, I love it too! Steph and I came up with the design together, and I chose the colour'' I beamed proudly ''and it'll be like this for the time being, until debut for real on the Monday Night Raw post show of Royal Rumble'' I smiled secretly.

''TELL ME!'' she yelled, immediately jumping up and tickling me in the ribs.

''Saraya you know I can't, I'm contractually bound'' I giggled, trying to get away from her tickling me ''...you will just have to wait and see just like everybody else'' I smiled.

''No fair'' she said, pouting her lips at me.

Knock knock ...

I turned to see one of the tech guys quickly pop his head round the door, and wave his watch at me ''Gorilla time'' he said, before quickly ducking out again.

My heart leapt into my mouth!

''I can't do this!'' I suddenly panicked ''oh god this was such a big mistake! My outfit is awful! My hair is worse'' I cried ''and what if they don't like me?!'' I said, starting to pace up and down hysterically.

Paige very calmly put both hands on my shoulders, and looked me directly in the eyes ''You can do this babe. You can, because I know you can. I've seen you do it, hell I've still got the scars to prove it'' she winked ''and if you feel any doubt, any doubt at all...then just close your eyes for a second, block out all that noise, and pretend it's just you and me back at the empty OVW studio having us a good old fashioned one on one wrestling match, okay?'' and I nodded.

''Seriously, you got this girl'' she reassured me ''I believe in you Faith, and I know you believe in yourself'' she smiled ''...now go out there, and kick some of Summer Rae's butt!'' she winked.

''I love you Saraya'' I said, reaching up and hugging her hard. Dean may have been her rock, but right now, at the exact perfect moment, she was mine.

HALF AN HOUR LATER...

''One...two...three!'' the ref counted, followed by the infectious cheer of the crowd as the ref called for the bell to signal the end of the match.

''And the winner of tonight's Divas match is....Faaiitthhh!'' the announcer said, while the ref held up my hand up.

I did it! I did it! I did it! I though excitedly!

I slowly looked round the cheering crowd, still a little outta of breath, but so over the moon with happiness as I had actually really done it! I had made it through my WWE debut without incident, and now with all my nerves finally gone, I was able to take it all in and really enjoy my moment as the crowd continued to cheer happily, leaving me feeling all warm and fuzzy inside.

It still hadn't sunk in yet that I was actually here, and I was so overwhelmed with everything that I almost forgot who my first match was with.

I stole a quick look at Summer, with a feeling of de ja vu, as she lay flat on the floor, sporting a real miserable look on her face as she scowled in my direction. I felt bad again, just like I always did when it came to Summer, but once again my bad feeling was quickly replaced with the idea that she had gotten her own self into this predicament.

After the match was done, I made my way backstage and leaned against the wall, just taking a moment for myself, whilst still catching my breath. Just then, I felt a pair of big, strong, familiar hands gently hold me round my waist, and I looked up to see Roman smiling down at me.

''Roman!'' I said, flinging my arms round his neck, and hugging him tightly.

''Mmmn babygirl'' he smiled picking me up and spinning me around, before gently placing me down and planting a sweet kiss on my forehead.

''I caught the last ten minutes, and from the honesty of my heart beautiful you, did absolutely amazing out there!'' he smiled widely ay me ''seriously Faith, you really kicked ass, and from one wrestler to another babygirl you have my well-deserved, and very impressed respect'' he smiled, pulling me close to him again.

''Really?'' I grinned up at him, feeling my heart pounding over how amazing his words were to me, and at the same time just how devilishly handsome he looked in the suite he was wearing from 'The Conan O' Brien Show'.

I drew in a sudden breath as Roman leaned his head down toward mine...but once again the moment was broken up by Paige and Dean bounding over to us in excitement.

''You rocked it out there tonight babe! OMG I'm soooo proud of you!'' Paige yelled at the top of her lungs, as she quickly pulled me from Roman into her own warm hug, then like a ragdoll, Dean grabbed me in a warm bear hug too.

''We'll see if 'Miss I'll Bed Anything' wants to mess with you now'' Dean winked, and the three instantly buckled over in laughter.

Roman just stood there looking confused.

''Don't ask'' Dean, Paige and myself all said in unison, which just made us laugh all the more.

''Y'all are weird'' Roman chuckled, shaking his head at us.

Just then, I saw the man that had made it all happen suddenly walk through the backstage area.

''Guys, I'll be back in a sec'' I said, and quickly left the group as I made my way over to the short bald man in a suit...

''Mr Heyman?'' I asked, slightly nervous.

''Ms. Melrose'' he beamed, turning round to look at me ''Well, well, well... there are no words'' he complimented ''you did yourself a proud justice out there tonight, I was watching'' he grinned ''and as a top promoter for the WWE, I can tell you that I've met with a lot of people in my career, and have been in many situations that I unfortunately have come to regret. It comes with the business I guess, so believe me when I say that it is a blessing in disguise to be rewarded with a genuine raw talent such as yourself Faith. You proved tonight that not only did I make the right decision in backing you, but that Stephanie and Hunter also made the right decision, in signing you too'' he finished with a warm smile.

''Oh my goodness'' I said, my hands immediately flying up to my blushing face ''...thank you Mr. Heyman, oh god thank you so much for everything. For believing in me, for giving me this opportunity, and for recommending me to Stephanie and Hunter...I owe you my career, and I just want to say how grateful l am to you'' I went to hug him, but decided instead on a professional handshake.

''It is I, who thank you Faith'' he told me, bowing his head respectfully.

Just then Mr. Heymans phone started ringing, and he quickly picked it up saying 'I'll be there in a sec Broc'' before placing his cell back inside his suit jacket....oooh Broc Lesnar!

''I have to run now Ms. Melrose as my client is waiting, but I will definitely see you again soon. Take care now'' he smiled, and shook my hand before hurrying off to meet his client.

''Thank you Mr.Heyman, I look forward'' I called after him, and watched as he went through a side door, and out back into a long black car that was waiting for him.

The man was so smooth! I smiled to myself.

Just then I heard a familiar laughter come from behind me...

I turned to see Summer leaning against the wall, arms folded, looking me up and down with a pitiful smirk in her eyes as she continued to laugh.

''What do you want Summer?'' I sighed ''because I know you're not here to congratulate me on my win.''

''You got that right'' she tutted 'So...that's who you fucked to get here?'' she laughed again, nodding her head toward the door Mr. Heyman had excited through ''does Roman know?'' she smirked.

Really? So freakin' childish!...I thought irritably.

''Are you always this stupid Summer, or are you making an extra effort today? Because I didn't 'fuck' anyone to get here sweetheart, I instead let my talent speak for itself when I auditioned for Mr. Heyman back at OVW'' I said calmly.

''Oh'' she said looking at me surprised.

At this point though, I couldn't help but throw my own retort back at her...

''So tell me summer, how flat on your back were you before the company decided to give you their annual charity contract, instead of using you as their lame ass doormat?''

''HOW DARE YOU SPEAK TO ME LIKE THAT!!!!'' she yelled in rage!

''NO! HOW DARE YOU!!! This has got to stop Summer! We need to try and at least be civil with each other if we're gonna work together!'' I yelled back.

I quietened down when I saw a few of the people backstage looking over at us, including Stephanie who appeared to be making her way over to congratulate me on the match. But Summer wasn't done giving me a piece of her mind, as she stepped right up close to me an said...''Always trying to steal my limelight aren't you Faith, well, not for long'' she hissed, and with her signature move of flicking her hair in my face, I watched as she stormed off out the same side door Mr. Heyman had gone through, and I couldn't be sure, but I swear I saw Seth waiting in a car out back.

Eh, whatever.
