HOOK One Shots (AEW)

Lost Bets (Part One)

Description: Listening to a few voice notes crushes your world.

When did it start? You didn't know.

How long had it been going on?

Not a clue in your mind. But when you finally noticed that things between the two of you were rocky, suddenly you were scared and overthinking everything. What if he decided that he was tired of fighting and asked for a break? After all, it seemed like that was all you two did anymore. Arguing over stupid stuff, big or little, it was nearly every day that one of you were pissed about something. It hadn't been like this in the beginning of your relationship, or for a while after. There was a love and connection that you'd never experienced with anyone before. Tyler coming home from traveling and shows to spend as much free time with you as humanly possible. All the backstage shenanigans, the late nights sat on the hood of his car snacking and chatting about any and everything you two could think of. You weren't sure when things took a turn, but you wanted to offer an olive branch and try to fix things.

That's why you were currently looking around backstage trying to find Tyler, two tickets to a movie he'd been wanting so badly to see for months in hand.

"Y/n what are you doing here?"

Turning at the familiar voice you give a slight wave to Maxwell and clear your throat holding the tickets up.

"I'm looking for Tyler I wanted to take him to a movie and dinner afterwards, have you seen him?"

"He left with Ethan and some of the guys a little while ago I think they were doing another of those vlog hunt things. I'm actually glad that you're here I've been wanting to talk with you about something important but with Tyler around I haven't had the opportunity."

You did not like the sound of where this conversation was going but your curiosity got the better of you and you gave a nod of your head. Max motioned with his head for you to follow him, so you silently did fiddling with your fingers as you walked. You were a little confused on what he could want since you got with Tyler you could only recall two or three times you had spoken to the man considering you weren't a big fan of his character, and he didn't really care speaking to you anyway. When the two of you finally reached an empty corridor Max turned to you and rubbed a hand over the back of his neck.

"Look I don't really know how to say this and I'm not looking to start trouble, but I just figured it was best to tell you anyway. Tyler's been playing you for a fool."

"Excuse me?"

"Remember how you two go together?"

"Of course, I do, he came up after I got injured by Ruby and helped me to medical than we just started talking often. Then well the rest is self-explanatory." "It may seem like that to you, but Tyler only came up to you because of a bet with Ethan Page. The wager basically was if Tyler could talk to one of the female wrestlers that normally they wouldn't and could get her to fall for him than Ethan and the guys would pay for a couple of pricy items he's had his eye on for a while."

You couldn't breathe, felt like the walls were closing in on you as your ears started ringing. Blinking you open your mouth to speak but stopped.

"I know this is sudden to you, but I figured it was time that you knew about all of this."

"Why should I believe anything you say? You realize that what you're saying is the only reason my boyfriend got with me was because of a bet."

"That's exactly what I'm saying look I've recorded a few conversations between him and the guys here is an important clip you need to listen to. I didn't manage to get him calling you trash recorded but I go enough."
