Stockholm Syndrome (Seth Rollins x Reader)

{7}

You rolled over in your bed to see Seth still asleep next to you in the bed. You looked at the ceiling with a small smile as you remembered the events of the night before.

_______________

You placed the bag of towels that you had from the water park on the floor by the front door. Your swimsuit clung to your body as you took your dress cover-up off. Seth came in behind you, taking a moment to admire your body before shutting the door behind him.

You once again admired the way he looked when water dripped over his chest, sliding down every crease from his muscles. Seth caught you staring, and took a step closer, standing only a couple of inches away. He tilted his head down, bringing his lips closer to yours.

You stared at his eyes for a moment, getting lost in their color. Your breathing nearly stopped as butterflies ran rampant in your stomach. You had imagined this moment many times. Seth Rollins standing in front of you, admiring you the way you admired him.

After another moment, you looked down, clearing your throat awkwardly. "I should really get out of this swimsuit," you told Seth. He looked disappointed but gave you a small smile in agreeance before replying, "Yeah, me too."

You grabbed some clothes and got in the shower for only a few minutes to rinse off the chlorine from the pool water. When you were done, you dried off and put on your clothes. Seth had showered at the water park, so he only needed to change - which he did while you were in the shower.

Seth was in the bed, looking perfect like always. You turned off the light and laid down next to Seth. You turned on a show for background noise and laid on your back, staring off into space. Seth's hand laid a few centimeters from yours, the warmth still able to radiate to your hand.

"Today was really fun," you told him, noticing that he was staring at the ceiling. "Yeah it was," he replied. Neither of you looked at each other as the tension continued to build between the two of you. It felt like the room was too silent as you noticed Seth's breathing was short and ragged like he was nervous.

Suddenly, Seth was leaning over you, crashing his lips to yours once again as one of his hands rested on your cheek, stroking it lightly with his thumb. You immediately kissed him back, allowing him to slide his tongue in your mouth, deepening the kiss.

Your hand moved up to wrap itself in his hair, tugging softly. You broke away for a breath of air before pulling him down into another kiss. After another minute, Seth pulled away, giving you a smile and saying, "Goodnight, Y/N."

Seth's arm was lying on top of your waist and you carefully moved it, trying not to wake him up as you got out of the bed. You placed a gentle kiss on his forehead before getting out of the bed and moving to do some things before Seth woke up.

You were sitting on your couch, doing some things on your phone when Seth sleepily entered the room, collapsing down next to you on the couch. "Good morning," he mumbled. "Good morning," you replied with a smile.

"Ready for some breakfast?" you asked him. "I was thinking about going out and getting some breakfast this morning," Seth told you with a hopeful look in his eyes. "That sounds perfect," you responded, getting up to change out of your pajamas.

After a few more minutes, you and Seth left to go and get some food. You went to a small diner - the kind of diner that is mostly inhabited by elderly people. But, you had heard that the food at the diner was absolutely delicious and you were ready to test that theory.

It didn't take long for a waitress to come and take your and Seth's order. As you were waiting for the food to come out, you and Seth made small talk. "So, tell me more about your time in wrestling," Seth stated, wanting to know more about you.

"Okay, well I started wrestling in my hometown when a scout from Total Nonstop Action Wrestling came and scouted me. He thought I would make him a lot of money and brought me on board. I quickly became the most popular female wrestler at that company, and I was really good. I was about to win the championship when the whole thing with Jeremy happened," you explained.

Seth hummed in response before asking, "Did you ever think about joining the WWE?" You nodded your head and told him, "Someone offered me a job with WWE if I won the championship with TNA."

"I think you would be a great fit with the WWE Superstars," he stated. "Really?" you asked. "Oh yeah, they would all love you. I can teach you a few moves if you're interested," Seth offered and your eyes began to shine with excitement at his words.

Being a WWE Superstar was always a dream of yours. It was the biggest wrestling company that broadcasted on TV. Anybody who wanted to make a name for themselves at least made an appearance on WWE. "That would be great," you told him with a large smile.

"Okay, then we'll start training today if you want to," he replied. "Sure, I have a bunch of gym equipment in the basement, and we can use the backyard too," you said, making him smile. He was excited to not only train you, but he was also itching to work out. It had been a few days since he got to do his full work out and he missed doing it as a part of his daily routine.

Before the two of you could say anything else, the food came out. You and Seth ate your food a little faster than normal, excited to get back home so you could start. When you were done, you paid for the meal and then made your way back home.

Seth instructed you to sit down and let your food settle while he began setting up the gym equipment. It took him a while, but when he was finally done, it looked great. Seth was impressed with the amount of equipment that you had in your basement.

You had basically everything. In one corner of the basement, he set up a treadmill, an exercise bike, and a rowing machine. In the opposite corner, he had set up a suspension training kit, battle ropes, and the jump rope that you had. And, in the last corner, he set up pull-up bars, a kettlebell and dumbbells, and weights. Also, around the basement, he had scattered fans to make sure it stayed nice and cool while the two of you were working out.

"It looks nice down here," you told him and he smirked at his accomplishment. "Now all we need is the ring," Seth teased. You smiled at his comment and stated, "Follow me." Seth was confused but did as you told, leading him to the garage door.

Before you opened it, you asked, "Did you ever wonder why I don't park in the garage?" Seth nodded his head and you opened the door to reveal a homemade ring sitting in the garage. Seth was in awe as you said, "Jeremy was kind of obsessed with constantly wrestling to be the best." "This amazing," Seth told you as he hopped into the ring, testing the floor first and then the ropes and the turnbuckles.

"It's as sturdy as a professionally built one," you told him, leaning against the doorframe to the garage with a smile on your face. "This is going to be great for teaching you moves," Seth stated, the excitement only growing for him.

He led you back down to the basement and said, "Okay, training starts now."
