"Sierra Hotel India Echo Lima Delta..Shield."

Their music made people cheer and boo. I stood at the entryway, watching their entrance alone. There was a man standing next to me.

"They're impressive," He said.

"Who are you?"

"You don't know me and no one has bothered to introduce us. I'm Daniel Bryan."

"My name is Lindsay."

"You're definitely not the run of the mill diva."

"That's what I've been told. I'm just being myself."

"Humble, that's definitely different than most around here."

"My upbringing did it to me." I said with a slight chuckle in my voice.

"Where did you grow up, Lindsay?"

"Omaha, Nebraska."

"I'm from Aberdeen, Washington. Farm girl?"

"Yup."

"Living near water makes a person appreciate land. My city was outside of Olympia."

"You live like right next to the ocean, huh?"

Daniel laughed.

"Yeah I did. Now, I'm in Arizona with my girl."

"Bet she's pretty."

"She's okay looking," He says laughing.

"Oh am I really?" A female voice asked.

"Babe, you know you're gorgeous. I want you to meet someone, Brie."

"I take it this is who you want me to meet, Bryan."

"Yup,"

She stuck her hand out to me.

"I'm Brianna, around here I'm Brie Bella. What's your name?"

"Lindsay."

Brianna looked semi interested in me. 

"Should I ask why you're staring out at the ring?"

"She might be in the storyline with Randy Glen and me."

"Ah, I see. Wait..against them?" she said pointing at the ring.

"Yeah."

"You mean Team Hell RKNo is going to have a female escort?"

"There's a reason for that but I'm not sure what or how it's gonna work."

"They're still developing your character aren't they?"

"Yeah,"

"Your name is Lindsay, right?" She asked me.

"Yeah,"

"We gotta come up with a name for you that isn't...Lindsay."

I looked at her, shocked. She, in turn, looked at Daniel.

"Look at her for a minute and tell me what name you think she should have."

Daniel and Brie looked at me.

"Every great diva has a name no longer than seven letters long." He said.

Brie looked at me.

"Chloe. It's cute, it's works with everyone in the storyline and somehow you just look like you could be a Chloe."

I smiled as Sara found me again.

"I have news for you, Linds."

"What is it?"

With Daniel and Brie standing next to me, Sarah whispered in my ear. My eyes lit up like a Christmas tree and I couldn't stop smiling.

"He wants to see me right now?" I asked Sara.

"Yup. you're on your way to Creative."

Daniel looked at Sara.

"Umm, wanna explain to me what's going on, cuz it would definitely be helpful."

"Daniel Bryan, Lindsay here has a meeting with some executives to audition for the storyline."

Brie smiled looking at me.

"Knock em dead up there, Kid. Who knows, maybe I'll get to perform some twin magic on you."

I extended my hand to Brie and she graciously shook it.

"I hope that it brings you luck, Lindsay-Chloe."

I looked at Sara, who stared at me perplexed.

"What's with the name?"

"Miss Bella didn't think I should be a Lindsay."

"So they named you Chloe."

"Yup."

Sara smiled as we headed upstairs to the board room of the arena. In the room, sat Jim Ross, Ric Flair, Stephanie McMahon and Triple H.

"Sara, pleasure to see you again." Stephanie said to her.

"Hello, Ms. McMahon."

'I'm guessing this is Lindsay."

"It certainly is."

Stephanie extended her hand out to me and I shook it.

"Let's see what you can do." Triple H says.

Jim Ross looked at me and smiled.

"I want a character bio from you. Tell me who you are, where you're from and what you're going to do to in the WWE."

I looked at Jim and smiled.

"Alright,"

"Whenever you're ready, Lindsay." Stephanie says.

I inhaled deeply and looked at the group.

"Hi, my name is Chloe Van Zant. I was born and raised in Beverly Hills. I am definitely not your average Hills girl. I'm smarter than them, stronger than them and honestly, I give every man a run for their money because I'm definitely not your girl next store and I'm not the girl you bring home to your mother. I rock heels, I rock diamonds and I definitely can rock your world. Thanks and see you in the Hills."

The group looked me over and that's when Jim Ross looked at me.

"Tell me your real name, where you're really from and a bit of your work experience."

"My real name is Lindsay Joy Sutton. I'm from Omaha, Nebraska and my family owned a dairy farm so I could ride a horse before I could walk. I could milk a cow by the time I was in kindergarten and from the time I could hold a fork, I was pitching hay for bales."

Triple H, Stephanie and Jim Ross smiled.

"One last question for you before you leave," Triple H says.

Nerves started wracking my body, but it didn't show.

"Yes?" I asked.

"What is a song near to your heart and why?" Triple H asks.

"That's easy. It's by Miranda Lambert and it's called Heart Like Mine. She sings about how Jesus understood her and how she wasn't the kind of woman a man would freely associate with dating material because she smoked, had a tattoo and sang. However, knowing all of that, Jesus still loved her."

"A southern girl, I like the choice." Jim said.

Triple H and Stephanie extended their hands to me as did Jim Ross.

"We'll contact you about the job after the others are interviewed."

"Thank you very much." I said. Sara and I then left the room. I exhaled sharply as we walked down the hallway towards the elevator. A hand reached between the doors and there, he stood. The man of my daydreams.
