Chapter 17: Evening on the Bus

After the electrifying events at the arena, the group returned to the tour bus, their spirits high with the excitement of the night. Sasha found herself drawn to Roman's side, her heart racing with anticipation as they settled in for the evening.

As dinner was served, the aroma of home-cooked meals filled the air, courtesy of Jimmy and Jey's culinary skills. The group gathered around the table, laughter and conversation flowing freely as they recounted the highlights of the evening's events.

"Man, did you see the look on Cody's face when Roman speared him?" Jey exclaimed, a mischievous twinkle in his eye. "He looked like he'd seen a ghost!"

Jimmy chuckled, nodding in agreement. "Yeah, and did you see Sasha's face when she interfered in the match?" he added, shooting Sasha a playful grin. "She was like a force to be reckoned with!"

Sasha rolled her eyes, unable to suppress a smile at the memory. "Hey, I was just helping out," she protested, her tone teasing.

Roman chuckled, his eyes sparkling with amusement as he looked at Sasha. "You were amazing out there, Sasha," he said sincerely, his voice filled with admiration. "I couldn't have won that match without you."

Sasha felt a warm flush spread through her cheeks at Roman's praise, her heart fluttering with a mixture of pride and pleasure. "Thanks, Roman," she replied, her voice soft yet filled with gratitude.

As the night wore on, the group's laughter filled the bus, their camaraderie strengthening with each passing moment. The Usos regaled them with tales of their antics on the road, their larger-than-life personalities shining through with each exaggerated gesture and animated expression.

"And then, when we were in Texas, we convinced Kofi to try out cowboy boots for the first time," Jimmy exclaimed, his eyes dancing with mischief. "Let's just say, it didn't end well!"

Sasha couldn't help but laugh at the image, her cheeks aching from the force of her smile. The Usos never failed to brighten her spirits, their infectious energy filling the bus with warmth and laughter.

As the evening drew to a close, Sasha felt a sense of contentment wash over her, her heart full with the love and camaraderie of her newfound family. She knew that tonight had been special – a chance to bond with the people who had welcomed her with open arms into their lives.

As Sasha made her way to her bunk bed, ready to settle in for the night, she felt a strong arm wrap around her waist, lifting her effortlessly from her feet. Startled, she looked up to see Roman's familiar face, a playful glint in his eyes.

"Roman, what are you doing?" she asked, her voice laced with surprise.

Roman's lips curved into a mischievous smile as he held her close, his gaze locked with hers. "I thought you might be more comfortable in my bed," he replied, his voice low and husky.

Sasha felt her heart race at his words, her cheeks flushing with heat. She was taken aback by his boldness, the close proximity sending a surge of electricity coursing through her veins.

With a silent nod, Sasha allowed Roman to carry her to his room, her pulse quickening with each step they took. The rest of the group watched in surprise as Roman whisked Sasha away, their eyes widening with realization as they exchanged knowing looks.

As Sasha settled into bed beside Roman, her heart pounding in her chest, she couldn't help but feel a rush of excitement at the prospect of spending the night in his arms. And as she drifted off to sleep, her body pressed against his, she knew that this was only the beginning of their journey together – a journey filled with passion, desire, and the promise of a love that would stand the test of time.
