The Samoan (A Roman Reigns Story) (Reupload)

The Shield Sleepover

"First off, congratulations on winning the Royal Rumble match and ensuring your place in the Main Event of Wrestlemanina."

"Appreciate it, Byron. Um, last night was incredible, it really was."

"That said, there are some who believe that you're not yet ready to Main Event Wrestlemania, especially against Brock Lesnar."

Did he really have to ask that question?

"Everybody's, uh, you know, entitled to their own opinion. The way I look at it, I have never claimed to be the most experienced guy in the locker room, um, I've always been able to react though, always been able to handle the deep end. That's the way I learned how to swim. My father, Sika, I'm down at the Pensacola YMCA downtown swimming in the pool, scaling the wall scared, scared to swim. He grabs me by my hair, he picks me up and throws me in the deep end. I go all the way down to the bottom, I touch the floor. You know what I did? I scratched and clawed as fast as I could and finally I was able to get that breath of fresh air. You wanna know what happened? I learned how to swim. That's how my wrestling career has been. I'm fine with being thrown in the deep end. Swimming with the sharks. You have to be able to do that."

The rest of the interview went great and after RAW, it was time for us to go to bed. We all had to stay in this huge room in the building and I was tired out and ready to sleep. But the boys, they had other plans.

Jon was super hyped up. "Let's play a little game."

"Ok, and what is this game, Jon?" Joe asked.

"Let's play a game of hide and seek."

"That's a game for little kids, Jon. And anyways, I'm tired and ready to go to bed." I told him.

"Hey, it is not for just kids. And you don't have to play if you don't want to since you want to be boring."

All three guys looked at me. I sighed. "Fine. Who is it first?"

"I'll go." Colby told us and he started to count. We all started to run around the building trying to find places to hide. I was actually having fun. We heard Colby yell that he was ready to look for us. I had no idea where Jon and Joe had gone but I was currently hiding under a desk in someone's office. I heard a scream and knew it to be Jon. Looks like he had been found. Now it was just Joe and I. I heard Colby's footsteps and knew I was probably going to be found. The lights in the room came on and the door shut. That had to be Colby. I waited for Colby to find me. The person that walked in the room sat down in the chair. Wait, that wasn't Colby. They started to slide under the desk.

"Wait!"

It scared them and they looked under the desk at me. It was none other than Triple H. Oh no, I had just hid under the desk of one of the owners of WWE. My cheeks became very red and I got out from under the desk.

"Who are you?"

"My name is Evanna Clay. I'm friends with..."

"You're friends with Joe. Got it."

"I'm so sorry, sir. Jon suggested a game of hide and seek and..."

He laughed. "It's alright. Have they found you yet?"

"No, sir."

He sighed but he had a smile on his face. "I know the best place to hide. Follow me."

He followed after him and he led me into a huge room that looked like a conference room.

"Here, they won't find you. I hide here all the time."

"You hide here?"

"I play hide and seek all the time when my kids come here. And I might had hid here once or twice from corporate heads."

I laughed and hid where he told me. About ten minutes later, I got a text from Colby asking where I was and that he was giving up and I finally showed myself. We played a few more games before going to the big room to sleep. Jon and Colby fell asleep quickly but Joe and I stayed up late talking.

"So, did you enjoy being here?"

"Yeah, it was nice. But I do have a question."

"Alright."

"What was that? In Vince's office."

"That was called a kiss, Evanna."

I tried not to laugh. "I know that. But, why did you do it?"

"Because, I like you. A lot."

He pushed back a strand of hair from my face and kissed me. It was electric. I had never felt anything like it before.

"Get a room." I heard someone mumble to see Jon and Colby looking at us. We laughed before falling asleep. I couldn't believe this was actually happening.
