The Authority made there way out of the ring and into the backstage area. The arena erupted in boos after the announcement. Nikki stayed behind and started waltzing around with the title up high.

I knew this was going to happen. I knew that I couldn't stop it. But like Mom said, family always comes first. Even if I may not be able to work in this business again, I still have my family. Jobs come and go, but I only have one family. And that is all that matters.

"Ava Lee! Ava Lee! Ava Lee!" The crowd chanted.

It hurt.

It really did hurt.

I'm going to miss these chants. I'm going to miss this arena. I'm going to miss the ring. I'm going to miss kicking a** every week.

But I have to go.

I lost.

I got fired.

"I can't believe Ava Lee is fired." Michael Cole mumbled.

"Ava Lee doesn't deserve this." Jerry agreed.

"What are you two nincompoops talking about?" JBL snapped. "This is great! We should all be celebrating!"

"Let's go." I said to AJ. "Let's go before I cry."

AJ gave me a sympathetic nod and stood up, holding her arm. She extended her free arm to me and gladly took it. Together, my sister and I walked to the ramp.

"That's it!" Nikki taunted. "Go on now! Get out of here! I'm the champ!"

I tried ignoring Nikki but I just couldn't. Knowing that she won, and that she's the champion, hurts.

AJ and I made our way up the ramp quietly. I looked at the ring once more before going backstage with AJ.

"Ava."

I looked up and saw the boys, Leighla, Isa, and Brie.

Leighla was the first to come up to me. She placed a hand on my shoulder and gave me a saddened look. I sighed, trying to hold back the tears. Leighla automatically pulled me into a hug.

"I am so sorry, Ava." She whispered, squeezing me tightly.

I didn't answer. I just accepted her hug, hugging her tightly as well.

Leighla let  go of me and backed away a little before Isa came up and hugged me, almost knocking me down.

"You did amazing out there. You found  so hard." Isa complimented.

"Thanks." I mumbled.

"I'm sorry that didn't pay off." She added letting go.

I shrugged and rubbed my dry eyes. Brie was next to hug me.

"I swore that you were going to win." Brie said. "I mean, all of those finishers. I could have never been able to kick out of that."

Brie released me and backed off.

Now I turned to look at the boys.

My boys.

We've done everything together. Now just looking at them made me wanna cry.
And I did.

"Come here, baby girl." Roman said pulling me into his chest.

I cried into Romans chest while hugging him tightly.

"If it makes you feel any better, that spear was wicked." He said with a smile.

I forced out a small chuckle, "Thanks." I said. "I learn from the best."
