Few moments after the match...Medical room;
"Hey, dawg. You could've just left me out there. Why'd you do that, bro?" Asked Trick. "You did it first, the debt's paid. I don't owe you nothing." Replied Leo. "And what's with the 'old school' tag shit we did out there?" Asked Axiom. "Why not? We're in the middle of surviving that monster of a man. What's done is done." Says Leo before Trick stops him. "You don't have to do this alone, my dawg. We're all here to help. Me, Axiom, Melo.. its not like everybody hate you or anything." Trick reassured. "It's just hard for me to put my trust on people. Just the way my mind works, bud." Leo taps Trick's shoulder leaving them in the room.
Backstage;
Leo walks around an almost empty 'after-show' backstage trying to clear his head off before his big opportunity on Saturday. He senses that he is being watched from afar. The more steps he took, the more eerie his surrounding become. Not long after, somebody sprint towards him leaving him no choice but to take a fighting stance. Lo and behold, a short, Texan latina tackles him down.
"Surprise." Roxy giggles on top of him. "You're the worst." He expressed. "You wanna know what could get worse?" She teased. "Wha-" He's about to ask before she locks her lips with his. He stops her after a minute. "This is dangerous. We're on public." He said. "There's nobody around." She giggled again and start kissing his neck. In act of defense, he pick her up and carry her to the parking lot. "Where we going, baby?" She asked. "Home, you poke the demon in me now you're going to endure it." He replied before they leave the arena. Gigi looks on from afar with a heartbroken reaction.
The next day...
Rental apartments;
Startled by the loud noise of a phone repeatedly, Leo struggling to wake up after staying up all night long. However, Roxy wakes up and heard Leo's phone ringing. She rejected the call and put it on mute. "Who's that?" He asked in a sleepy tone. "Just..go to sleep. You need more rest after all." She giggles and hugs him to sleep.
Saturday...
Rental apartments;
"My mom, she keeps calling me, should I pick up?" He asked while tempting to accept. "You don't have to force yourself, baby." She replied while washing dishes. "I don't know...I think I sho-" he said before Roxy hugs him on the sofa, she pushes the phone away and gain his full attention. "How about we go out together doing fun stuff like spa and arcades? You know we got time for that before the show, right?" She offers. "I guess, you're right. Let's go." He agreed and rejected the calls.
