Ringside Romance: Roman Reigns x Sasha Banks

Chapter 10

Chapter 10: The Journey Back

As the Bloodline returned to the tour bus, Sasha couldn't shake the tension that hung in the air like a heavy fog. Despite the celebratory atmosphere of the night, there was an undercurrent of unresolved emotions simmering beneath the surface.

Feeling the need to wash away the stress of the evening, Sasha headed straight for the small bathroom on the bus as soon as they arrived. She turned on the water, letting the warm spray cascade over her body as she tried to clear her mind.

Lost in her thoughts, Sasha didn't realize until it was too late that she had forgotten to bring a change of clothes with her into the shower. With a frustrated sigh, she turned off the water and wrapped herself in a towel, hoping that she could make a quick dash back to her bunk without being seen.

But as Sasha stepped out of the bathroom, towel wrapped tightly around her body, she froze in her tracks. Roman stood in the narrow hallway of the bus, his broad frame blocking her path.

Their eyes met, a jolt of electricity sparking between them as the tension crackled in the air. Sasha's heart raced in her chest, her breath catching in her throat as she struggled to find her voice.

"Roman," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "I...I didn't realize you were here."

Roman's gaze roamed over Sasha's figure, his eyes dark with desire as he took in the sight of her standing before him in nothing but a towel. "Sorry, I was just...I was just heading to my room," he said, his voice low and husky.

Sasha nodded, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment as she tried to maintain her composure. "Right, of course," she replied, her voice trembling slightly.

For a moment, they stood there in awkward silence, the air heavy with unspoken tension. But then, as if drawn together by an invisible force, Roman took a step forward, closing the distance between them.

"Sasha," he said, his voice barely a whisper as he reached out to gently touch her arm. "I...I just wanted to say...you looked beautiful tonight."

Sasha's heart skipped a beat at Roman's words, her breath catching in her throat as she looked up into his eyes. In that moment, all of the walls she had built around her heart came crashing down, leaving her vulnerable and exposed before him.

"Thank you, Roman," she said, her voice filled with emotion. "That means a lot to me."

Their eyes locked, the world falling away around them as they stood there in the dim light of the bus. In that moment, there was no tension, no uncertainty – only the undeniable spark of attraction that crackled between them, igniting a flame that neither of them could deny.

And as Roman leaned in, his lips hovering just inches from hers, Sasha felt a surge of anticipation wash over her. In that moment, she knew that everything was about to change – that their lives were on the brink of something truly extraordinary. And with that thought in mind, Sasha closed the distance between them, her heart soaring as their lips met his cheek to give him a quick but bold peck.
