Burning Desire (its back ;) )

Chapter 5

(Nikki's POV)

I woke up. My eyes were feeling puffy and sore. All I remember was crying so hard that I couldnt see clear anymore. What happened? I felt arms around me. But they werent muscular like I remember. I rubbed my eyes and looked around, realizing that this room was not familiar. Where am I? I started freaking out and turned around. I saw.. Seth? I looked under the covers to see if we were naked or not. God, I hope we didnt do anything bad. To my suprise, I wasnt naked. I had a long 'SR' shirt on. But, Seth was shirtless, and in his boxers. I bit my lip. To be quite honest that turned me on. I tried to remember everything that happened. It then hit me. John cheated on you last night. I started crying. I tried to not make as much noise as possible, but I failed. Seth then woke up and sat up on the bed. I then felt my chin being lifted up and a kiss to my forehead.

"Dont cry now, Princessa."

"I cant help but not to! Seth, for Pete's sake I just got cheated on by a guy I've dated for three whole years! I loved him..."

"He's not worth any of your tears! He's obviously phony as hell that he screwed over someone who was all about him."

"That's true.. But it still really hurts when I think about it. But uh hey, Seth? Can I ask you something?"

"Anything."

"How did I get uh, wherever we are right now?"

"Well this is what had happened."

Flashback-
(Seth's POV)

We sat there in the closet for a good twenty minutes or so. I looked at Nikki who was staring blankly at her fingers playing with them. I pulled out my phone and checked the time. It was getting late and I wouldn't want to be trapped in this arena all night.

"Nikks? You hear me?"

"Y-yeah.."

"Listen." I lifted her chin up for her to look at me. Our faces were almost touching.

"We can't stay in this closet forever. How about you spend the night in my hotel room?" She just nodded as tears carelessly trailed down her face. I stood up, about to exit the closet when I noticed that Nikki didn't at all budge. I held out my hand for her to grab, but she just stared at it. Since she was never going to move on her own, I carried her bridal style out of the closet. She was almost like a statue, not moving. But breathing. As I was walking down the hallways, numerous superstars and divas were giving us dirty and weird looks. Cant they mind their own business for once? "Never mind them, Princess." I whispered into Nikki's ear. I was on my way to my car until a voice stopped me.

"Rollins?! What did you do to my sister?" I turned around. It was Brie. She looked fuming mad. Oh geez, help me.

"Nothing. If anything you should be thanking me. I was there to console her when none of you guys were." She looked down.

"What happened anyways.." She said in a lower tone. Good job Seth, you got to her.

"Haven't you checked Twitter, Instagram, or I mean, the Internet in general? Everyones buzzing about this certain topic that I don't think I should bring up, more so right in front of your sister." As I was setting Nikki into the passenger's seat I heard Brie gasp. I turned around and saw tears forming in her eyes. She gave me a look of sympathy and gave her broken down sister a hug.

"Dont fret about it Brie. I'll take care of her and keep you updated if anything happens." She nodded and mouthed 'thank you so much' and walked away.

As I was driving, I looked over at Nikki when we hit a red light. She was looking out the window with watery eyes. I put my right hand on her thigh in a comforting way. She looked at me and slightly smiled. The car ride was about 15-20 minutes. Pretty quiet, pretty peaceful compared to the ride earlier. When I parked the car, I quickly ran out of my door and went to go open Nikki's door.
