Recapitulation
Rhea flew to Iowa to fight against Charlotte Flair. Nobody knew that Charlotte had a backup in the form of the one and only Asuka. No one could guess that Judgment Day might also have her back... well, someone did: a person with many nicknames given by his fans—pretty boy, blonde, cowboy—but one of them is what he truly is: Rockstar. He sided with Rhea that time, even though she didn't want him there. He saved her that day, despite her belief that she could win against Flair and Asuka. JayC is the arch-nemesis of Judgment Day for some reason. He wouldn't side with any of them... or would he? Something is going on.
PRESENT DAY
10:13 AM*
Our sunshines were already up and working hard in the gym. Their lives were publicly known, so it wasn't unusual for them to take selfies with fans, garner attention, and sometimes receive special treatment. Rhea didn't mind, but Jay hated it when people thought he was something more than them. He was just lucky... or was he born to do this?
After 20 minutes of working out and a few interactions with fans, they walked back to their hotel room to take a shower and start fresh once again.
Jay was out of the shower, drying his hair. As he did, he called for Rhea to go ahead. When she walked in, she playfully spanked him. He just smiled and chuckled. They had been dating for a while, but it felt like they had known each other forever. However, she didn't know everything. He knew he would have to tell her eventually... you can't build a relationship on lies or without trust. He tried not to dwell on his past; what mattered was what was happening right now. Living his life with Rhea by his side felt like living his dream. Today, he planned to show her just how much she meant to him.
After she was done, they sat on the bed, just chilling.
Rhea: Hmm, so when are we going to visit Pam and Alan?
Jay: Who?
Rhea: Pamela and Alan, you know? Right?
Jay: I... um... who are they?
Rhea scratched her forehead.
Rhea: AJ Styles and Bayley ring any bells?
Jay: Yeah, yeah, I know those names, but that's about it, I'm afraid.
Rhea: Well, I'm sure you'll remember when you talk to them for a bit.
Jay: I hope.
After a while of staring at the ceiling...
Rhea: So, do we have any plans?
Jay: Eeh, kind of.
Rhea: Kind of?
Jay: I was thinking we could go grab some food, and I guess we'll figure it out on the way.
Rhea: Let me get this straight... we don't have any plans?
Jay: (chuckles) I wouldn't say that.
Rhea: You and your secrets... TELL ME!
Jay: Where's the fun in that? Haha.
Rhea: Come on... pretty please?
Jay: Okay, okay... I'll say one thing and one thing only: I've been planning this for a long time, and I'm pretty sure you haven't been to the places I'm going to take you... I hope. Hahaha.
