Running From Lions [Dean Ambrose + Kaitlyn]

Running From Lions - All Time Low

"Hey, Kait, are you okay?"

Kaitlyn looked up when she heard her name. She was sitting in the Divas locker room, looking down at her hands and thinking.

"Oh, hey, AJ," She replies. "Yeah, I'm fine."

"Are you sure?" AJ asks, worried about her best friend.

Kaitlyn shrugs. "I don't know. To be honest, I'm just really confused. Can we talk about it later?"

"We can talk about it at the hotel," AJ suggests. "I'll see you there."

Before Kaitlyn can say anything in response, the Divas Champion turns around and exits the locker room. She probably had a match coming up.

Kaitlyn spent the rest of the show in the Divas' locker room, not talking to anyone and just thinking. Eventually, the show ended and AJ got her so that they could go back to the hotel.

The car ride was silent. AJ knew something was troubling her best friend, but she didn't know what. She didn't want to ask until they got to the hotel, so she kept her mouth shut, and Kaitlyn made no attempts to say anything.

Once they reached the hotel and got to their rooms, AJ quickly got down to business.

"Katie, what's wrong?" She asks.

Kaitlyn sighs. "You know Dean, right?"

"Dean Ambrose? Yeah." AJ frowns in confusion. "Why?"

"Well, we've been talking a lot lately and he's really cool and all. He likes me for me and I like him, but..."

"But what? Kaitlyn, that's great!" AJ exclaims.

"But there are rumors..."

"What kind of rumors?"

She shrugs. "I mean, people think he's some kind of crazy person and I don't know him that well, so what if they're right?"

"Have you tried talking to him about this?" AJ asks. "You can find out from him firsthand if he's actually crazy."

"Oh yeah, I'm just going to go up to him and say 'Oh, hey, Dean. I was wondering whether or not you're a crazy person.'" Kaitlyn rolls her eyes. "I'm sure that'll go great."

"It was just a suggestion," AJ says.

"Plus, we haven't really talked in a few days," Kaitlyn admits.

"Why?"

"I told him I needed to think about things," She explains. "I realized that if I kept this going we might end up in a relationship and I needed to figure out if that's what I really want. I mean, what if it turns out he's dangerous?"

"How has he been whenever you're together?" AJ asks.

"He's really sweet and a gentleman," Kaitlyn says. She sighs. "He just seems genuine."

"That's probably how he always is," AJ says. "Those rumors probably started because of how he is on-screen. He's probably a completely different person off-screen."

"You're probably right."

"And if you ask me, I think you should give him a chance," AJ says. "I think you guys would make a really cute couple."

Kaitlyn smiles. "Thanks, AJ. You're awesome."

"That's what I'm here for," She says, smirking.

"I'm going to find Dean. We need to talk."

***

After texting Dean and telling him to meet her by the pool, Kaitlyn was now sitting in a chair by it. She was the only one there since the pool was going to close in ten minutes.

"Hey, there you are."

Kaitlyn looked to her left and saw Dean Ambrose walking toward her. He had taken off his Shield gear and was now wearing a t-shirt and jeans. He was smiling.

"Hey." Kaitlyn smiles. "Yeah, sorry about that. I needed to think and I didn't need any distractions."

Dean takes a seat in the chair next to her. "What were you thinking about?"

"You, actually," She admits, smirking.

"Oh, really?" There was now a mischievous look in his eyes and he was smirking.

"Yep."

"And why couldn't I know that you were thinking about me?" He asks.

"It's a secret," She answers, smirking.

He chuckles. "I've taught you well. And since we're talking now, I have a question."

"Alright."

"You're one of the coolest girls I've ever met," He says. "Do you want to, maybe, go on a date? We can see where things go from there."

She grins. "I'd love to, Dean."

"Running from lions never felt like such a mistake."

I know it's kinda short, but this is my first attempt at writing anything involving Kaitlyn/Dean Ambrose. I've been reading lots of stuff about them lately so I decided to give it a try. Let me know how I did, because I'll try to include other couples that aren't my OTPs (Dolph/AJ and Cody/Kaitlyn) in future one-shots if you guys enjoyed it! :)

Thanks for reading! ^.^
