I put on my psycho-personality mask, turning around and taking out my lower mouth guard. I hook both of them into the waistband of my shorts while looking at everyone.

I spit some blood out of my mouth, letting it drip down my chin. "I suggest you always have me in your corner" I announce causing everyone to shut up

I find Francesco's cold stare to the left and smirk at him. Watch your back, bitch. I climb under the rubber surrounding the ring, hoping down from the platform.

Jason and Ashton are immediately in front of me, looking concerned but also proud. Jason tosses me a bottle of water and Ashton holds a bucket. I spray the water into my mouth, rinsing, and spit the light red liquid into the bucket. Holding my head over the bucket, I spray my face to get the excess off.

Jason hands me a towel allowing me to dry my face. I push the bloody towel into his chest, looking for a specific brunette.

I find him in the back of the crowd, standing next to my twin. I push past some people, being careful of my shoulder that hangs limp at my side.

Maddox notices me and breaks into a smile. I immediately wrap my right arm around his neck, keeping my left at my side. While on my toes, I put my chin on top of his shoulder. He wraps his arms around me. "I'm so fucking proud of you, brother" I whisper in reference to him speaking

He doesn't say anything, only nods. "This doesn't mean you have to keep talking, alright? Just one step at a time. I know it's hard, and a little weird. Your throat will hurt too. I'm here for you Maddox" I whisper again, feeling relaxed in his embrace

He pulls away, holding my face in his hands. "I guess we both curse after a few years, huh?" He asks amused, in a hushed tone with a few cracks

I smile shaking my head. "Sorry about the blood" I say pointing to his shirt. He waves me off kissing my forehead. I pat his cheek, and turn to my twin.

He has a huge smile on my face, and immediately brings me into a bone crushing hug— lifting my feet off the ground. "I knew you could do it twinny" He says happily

"Yeah, I did too" I say cockily

He puts me down and I inhale quickly. Damn that kid is strong. I walk away from him after patting his chest. I look back to the ring, seeing some of the boys by Xander's unconscious body.

"Jay" I call to my friend. He looks at me so I nod my head towards my bag in the corner of the room. He nods and jogs over.

I look around the room and find a bench. Ash comes over to me and we move it into a more open part of the room. He puts the bench at an angle so someone can sit down comfortably.

Turning around, I ignore most people trying to find Alessandro. I see him already looking at me. "Do y'all have an ice chest in here?" I deadpan

He nods, pointing to the back right corner of the room next to a sink. I nod and look back to Ashton. "Can you get me 5 ice bags please?" I ask
