34. Tomasso Ciampa- Somebody's a little jealous

Jessica stood in the dimly lit bar, her laughter mingling with the soft strains of music that filled the air. She sipped her drink, her gaze fixed on the man across the table from her, his easy smile and charming demeanor drawing her in like a moth to a flame. It had been a while since she had felt this carefree, this alive, and yet, a nagging sense of unease gnawed at the edges of her consciousness.

Tommaso Ciampa, her boyfriend and WWE superstar, was supposed to join her for dinner, but a last-minute scheduling conflict had forced him to cancel. Although she understood the demands of his career, the sting of disappointment lingered, leaving her feeling adrift and alone. And now, as she found herself lost in conversation with a handsome stranger, she couldn't shake the feeling that she was betraying the man she loved.

As the evening wore on, Jessica's laughter grew louder, her inhibitions loosened by the warmth of alcohol coursing through her veins. The handsome stranger leaned in closer, his touch lingering on her arm as he whispered sweet nothings in her ear. She felt a flutter of excitement in her chest, a rush of adrenaline that sent her heart racing with anticipation.

Just then, the door to the bar swung open, and Tommaso Ciampa stepped inside, his gaze sweeping the room until it landed on Jessica. A flash of jealousy crossed his features, his jaw clenched tight as he watched her laughing and flirting with the stranger across the table. Without a word, he made his way over to her, his footsteps heavy with purpose.

Jessica's heart skipped a beat as she caught sight of Tommaso approaching, her stomach twisting with guilt at the sight of his stormy expression. She had never seen him like this before, his normally calm demeanor replaced by a simmering rage that sent shivers down her spine. She opened her mouth to speak, to explain herself, but the words caught in her throat like a lump of coal.

Tommaso reached the table, his eyes blazing with intensity as he glared at the stranger sitting across from Jessica. "Mind if I have a word with my girlfriend?" he growled, his voice low and dangerous.

The stranger's eyes widened in surprise, a flicker of apprehension crossing his features as he glanced between Jessica and Tommaso. With a nervous nod, he rose from his seat, shooting Jessica an apologetic look before hurrying away into the crowd.

Jessica watched him go, her heart pounding in her chest like a drumbeat echoing in the darkness. She turned to face Tommaso, her gaze filled with trepidation as she searched his eyes for any sign of forgiveness. "Tommaso, I can explain—"

But before she could utter another word, Tommaso cut her off with a sharp gesture, his voice a low rumble that sent shivers down her spine. "Save it, Jessica," he snapped, his tone laced with bitterness. "I saw everything. You and that guy, flirting like a couple of teenagers. Do you have any idea how that made me feel?"

Jessica's heart sank at the hurt in Tommaso's eyes, her guilt washing over her like a tidal wave crashing against the shore. She reached out to touch his arm, her fingers trembling with emotion. "I'm sorry, Tommaso. I never meant to hurt you," she pleaded, her voice choked with tears. "I was just trying to have a good time, to forget about everything for a while."

Tommaso's expression softened at her words, his anger giving way to a deep sense of sadness. He reached out to cup her face in his hands, his touch gentle as he brushed away her tears with his thumb. "I know, Jessica. And I'm sorry too," he murmured, his voice tinged with regret. "I should've been there for you tonight, instead of letting work get in the way."

Tears welled in Jessica's eyes as she met Tommaso's gaze, a floodgate of emotion threatening to overwhelm her. In his arms, she found solace and strength, a reminder of the depth of their love and the power of forgiveness. And as they lingered together in the dimly lit bar, the petty argument that had threatened to drive them apart faded into insignificance, replaced by the unbreakable bond that united their hearts as one.
