Sam POV

I had exactly 30 minutes to get to Hannah's house so that we could head to the area for the wwe show tonight. As I rushed round my apartment grabbing what I needed I stubbed my toe on a box I had yet to unpack.

"Shit! God damn it!" I gasp hopping a little hpjust as there is a knock at my door "oh what now? I am so going to be late and she going to kill me"

Grabbing my bag and car keys I head for the door and when I open it I find Jake standing there.

"What do you want?" I groan as I shut and lock the door

"I was hoping we could talk but I'm guessing you're busy" he says

"You guess right" I say as I walk towards my car

"Please Sam, I just want to talk, no funny business just talk" he says taking hold of my hand "we were happy weren't we?"

"I thought we were" I say taking my hand back "but if we were you wouldn't have cheated"

"I know I made a mistake" he sighs "but it's you I want Sam, I want marry you, have a family with you, please just give us a chance to talk?"

I open my mouth to answer but I'm cut off by my phone beeping.

Big man: Lunch tomorrow? My treat no arguments

Me: I'd like that, let me know what time and I'll see you tomorrow

Smiling I put my phone away and then look up at Jake who hasn't budged from his spot in front of me.

"Alright" I sigh "Come round tomorrow night, now I really have to go"

I get into my car and pull of the driveway leaving Jake standing there, I did wonder if I had made the right choice agreeing to talk with him.

When I pull up at Hannah's house they are already stood by the car waiting for me, I get out of my car and walk straight over to them.

"You're late Aunty Sam" Tyler says as I reach their car

"I know I'm sorry sweetie" I sigh "but I'm here now so you ready to go watch some wrestling?"

"Yeah" he says practically diving into the back seat

"What was the hold up?" Hannah asks giving me a hug

"Oh nothing major, let's go" I say walking around the car and getting in the passenger side.

At the arena

Standing ringside watching two men wrestle in the ring in front of me I had no clue who they were or what was going on, the only thing that made this worth it was seeing Tyler so excited.

"Ok I'm going to get a drink, who wants one?" I ask

"But you'll miss Roman Reigns' entrance" Tyler pouts "He's my favourite"

"I promise I will be back in time to see his match alright" I say and he nods before turning back to the ring.

I head out of the doorway and along to the concession stand, as I'm getting the drinks I hear music start and the crowd cheering and I assume it's the guy Tyler was on about.
Grabbing the drinks I head back to them and hand them each their drink.

"So what's going on?" I ask Tyler

"Roman just got in the ring" he beams and I turn my gaze to the ring to get a look at the man he's been telling me about and the second my eyes land on him I freeze.
Standing right there in the ring is Joe, no shirt, cargo pants and boots, so this is what he meant by he was in the sports industry.

Right now my mind is constantly switching between swooning over how good he looks and being completely shocked to see him in the ring.

"Um Sam" Hannah says tapping my shoulder "I think you have some explaining to do"

"What why?" I ask turning to look at her

"I knew that tattoo was familiar" she says "you spent the week with Roman freaking Reigns" she says keeping her voice low so as not to attract attention.

"I didn't know" I say "even if he'd told me I wouldn't have known who he was"

"Well what are you waiting for get his attention" she says "you wanted to find him"

"I already saw him today" I say and she raises her eyebrows "when you were in the shop, he came over to me"

"And?" She asks "Please tell me you are seeing him again"

"Yes tomorrow" I say and then quickly remember what else I'm doing tomorrow "and then I'm seeing Jake"

"What! Are you crazy? Why?" She asks looking at me like I just sprouted a second head

"He wants to talk" I sigh "so I said yes"

"Sam you can not go back to him" she pleads "look at that man over there and think about how happy he made you, don't let that go"

"We are just talking, I'm not going back to him" I say taking another look at Joe and finding that he is looking right back at me, he gives me a smile and wink and then focuses on his opponent.

"Sure just talking" she says "and then he says all the right things and you go back, and that man ends up hurt" she says pointing at the ring "that man over there is the one you should be with, not Jake"
