*A few years later*
Sasha and I have been dating for almost 2 years now things have been good with us but the last few months we've been arguing a lot. She's getting noticed by WWE and could be getting offered a contract soon and I know she's stressed with that. I'm still working for Snoop and I got back into wrestling so between me being gone with Snoop and training we aren't seeing each other that much. This weekend Sasha and I have an indy show together where we're doing a mixed tag team match against two other local competitors. The match was really fun and we really put a whooping on the other team.
*Later that night*
We're back in our apartment and we just got settled in.
Ryan: That match was so much fun. We're really good together in the ring.
Sasha: We have good chemistry what can I say. I'm just glad we get to spend the weekend together. I miss you.
Ryan: I miss you too. But about the weekend......
Sasha: What about it?
Ryan: I forgot to tell you. I'm going to a show with Snoop tomorrow.
Sasha: Are you fucking kidding me?
Ryan: What?
Sasha: Ryan we haven't been together in 3 weeks we have 48 hours together and you're going out with my cousin tomorrow?
Ryan: I'm sorry that's my job.
Sasha: His show isn't until Sunday night and it's in Oakland. Why do you need to leave tomorrow? It's not like it's a long drive.
Ryan: Because that's when he's leaving.
Sasha stars to cry.
Ryan: What are you crying for?
Sasha: Because Ryan, I feel like we're drifting apart. We never spend time with each other anymore and we've been fighting so much lately.
Ryan: We're just in a rough patch right now every relationship goes through them.
Sasha: Please don't leave tomorrow. Just leave early on Sunday.
Ryan: Let me call Snoop and see if he'll leave Sunday morning.
I called Snoop and talked to him and let him know what was going on. Then I let Mercedes know.
Ryan: We're leaving Sunday morning.
Sasha: Thank you.
Ryan: You're such a spoiled brat you know that.
Sasha: How?
Ryan: You always get what you want.
Sasha: That's because you love me.
Ryan: I do but you're still a brat.
Sasha: Jerk.
I started to laugh and she was laughing too and she playfully went to slap my arm. I grabbed her arm before she could hit me.
Ryan: Oh, so you want to play rough I see?
She looked at me and smiled and then bit her lip.
Sasha: I do baby. Maybe you should take me into the bedroom and teach me a lesson.
Ryan: Let's go.
I got up from the couch and I picked Mercedes up and she wrapped her legs around me and we made out while we walked into the room.
*Monday*
Mercedes was at training and I was chillin with Snoop and a few of the guys out in Compton. We were outside our homeboy's house when we noticed a car that drove by the house a few times. The car stopped by the house next door and my boy realized that it was someone he had beef with. A few seconds go by and the guy just starts to open fire in our direction.
*A few days later*
I woke up and I had no idea where I was. I saw a bunch of wires and machines and heard a lot of beeping. I turned to my head to the left and I saw Mercedes.
Ryan: Mercedes?
Sasha: Oh my god, you're awake.
Ryan: Where am I?
Sasha: You're in the hospital. I have to get the nurse.
She pushed the button on my bed and let the nurse know I was awake.
She started crying and she leaned in and kissed me.
Sasha: I thought I was going to lose you.
Ryan: What happened?
The nurse came rushing in.
Nurse: What's your name?
Ryan: Ryan Walker.
Nurse: What year is it?
Ryan: 2012
Nurse: Awesome. I'll let the doctor know you're awake and he should be in soon.
When the nurse left, I saw Mercedes wipe her face.
Ryan: What happened?
Sasha: You don't remember?
Ryan: Nah, last thing I remember was sitting outside Mike's house and this dude started shooting at us.
Sasha: You got hit a few times. A bullet hit you in the lung and another got you in the stomach. You went into a coma after the surgery and I thought I was going to lose you forever.
Ryan: I'm not going down that easy. Is everyone else okay?
Sasha: Yeah, everyone else is fine. Just a few minor injuries.
Ryan: I'm sorry for everything. I'll be a better boyfriend I promise.
Sasha: You don't have to apologize. Now isn't the time for us to talk about our issues.
Ryan: I know. I just wanted to say that.
Moments later the doctor came in.
Doctor: Mr. Walker, I'm Doctor Jones. How are you feeling?
Ryan: Well for getting shot and being in a coma not so bad. How long do I have to stay here?
Doctor: I want to at least keep you here for another 48 hours. Just as precaution to make sure you're not going to have any complications.
Ryan: Alright.
Doctor: I'll leave you two alone. I'll be back later to check on you just call the nurse if you need anything.
The doctor left the room and there was an awkward silence in the room.
Ryan: So, anything good happen while I was sleeping?
Sasha: It finally happened.
Ryan: What happened?
Sasha: I got the call from WWE. They offered me a deal with NXT.
Ryan: No way that's amazing. I'm so proud of you.
Sasha: I am too. Thank you for all your help.
Ryan: You already had the talent babe. I just helped you sharpen your skills. So, what's next?
Sasha: They're going to call me in a few days and let me know more.
While we were talking Snoop came in to check on me.
Sasha: I'll let you two have some time. I'll be back later.
Snoop: How you feeling nephew?
Ryan: Surprisingly not too bad.
Snoop: Listen I've been doing some thinking and I think it's best you focus more on wrestling and not so much on being my bodyguard.
Ryan: Why?
Snoop: You got too much to lose now. You and my cuz got a nice little thing going on and you're actually pretty fucking good at wrestling.
Ryan: Are you sure?
Snoop: Yeah, I don't want anything bad to happen to you.
Ryan: Thank you for the opportunity.
Snoop: Hold on now. We're not done forever, you still part of the family. Besides Eminem you're the only white boy allowed at my cookouts.
Ryan: I appreciate that.
