It's complicated

Chapter 54

Seth's POV

It feels odd not having Daniella around at Raw or Smackdown. She's already missed all of the weeks before Fastlane. This Sunday is Fastlane and Hunter doesn't even know what to do for the divas match. It's kind of hard when we don't even have the divas championship for them to defend. Emilia has tried convincing Daniella to come back, but I don't think it's working since all she ever says in response is 'I'll think about it'. Everyone who wasn't in the hotel room thinks that Daniella injured herself so she's been taking a break from wrestling until she gets better.

I'm hanging out backstage of Smackdown when I see Hunter and Stephanie walk by. Both of them are talking on the phone and stop to look at me. They hand me the phone they were on and motion for me to talk. I sigh and put the phone against my ear reluctantly. There's nothing on the other end and I'm about to hang up when I hear someone laugh.

"Hi Seth, do you know where Hunter and Stephanie are, I have some unfinished business to deal with? Wait, I'll just talk to you until they decide to meet with my demands." Daniella states. It's clear she's drunk again and I just sigh.

"Daniella, maybe you should just take a nap or something when you're actually sober." I advise her. She giggles and there's another voice in the background. Hunter and Stephanie motion for their phone back and I put one finger in the air.

"Corey wants me to tell you to lighten up a little bit and have some fun for once." Daniella giggles. My breathing stops and I hang up the phone. I hand the phone back to the Hunter and rush to my locker room. Once I'm in there, I immediately grab my own phone and dial Daniella's number. She answers it on the first ring and I automatically hear her laughter on the other end.

"Daniella, I want you to meet me at the arena right now. I want Corey to drop you off and then we'll handle it from there." I tell her. It's silent on the other end for once until I can hear some shuffling. A door is shut and I hear her sigh on the other end of the phone.

"Fine, but we're going to discuss my demands with Hunter and Stephanie once I get there." Daniella tells me. She hangs up and I sigh. Why must everything be so complicated with her. I start heading out to the parking lot when I spot Roman walking inside the arena. His hoodie is on as well as his Beat headphones are plugged in and he doesn't pay me any attention. I don't say anything when he just walks by me, ignoring my very existence. I roll my eyes and wait for Daniella to pull up so I can put an end to this.

Daniella's POV

My nerves are out of control right now heading to the arena. I try to take deep breaths as I drive in the traffic. I've sobered up after the phone call had ended with Seth. I'm not wearing anything special unless you count the divas championship belt an accessory like most of those divas in that locker room considers it as. I take another deep breath as I pull into the parking lot. When I get there, I have to be focused, I can't let anything they say affect me.

They have specific parking spots for the roster and I immediately find mine. Of course this time, they put mine by Seth's instead of Roman's or Dolph's. I grab my sunglasses and title and park my car. There is a couple of people in the back standing by the door hoping to see superstars walk by or something. Adjusting my belt, I walk towards the arena, but stop dead in my tracks. Seth is wearing his ring gear, waiting for me outside. He doesn't seem to notice me until a group of teenage girls leave him and run towards me instead. I smile at them and they take pictures with me as I awkwardly try walking while they have me squished in their circle. Seth slowly makes his way towards me and when he does, I'm caught in his embrace. A lot of the girls start recording this moment or take photos.

"That's relationship goals." I hear a couple of them say. I try not rolling my eyes at that so I just force a smile in their direction. Just let this go for the sake of the fans. Seth finally lets me go and guides me to the back entrance where there's a very short security guard is waiting for us. From here, I can't tell if it's Joey or Jamie waiting for us. Seth moves his hand to my lower back and I glance at him. He keeps his gaze forward, not looking at me once. When we finally get to the doors, I gently push his arm away and walk inside. I also realize it's Joey standing . No shocker that there's a camera already there filming me.
