Always And Forever

Chapter 13

I woke up in an empty bed the next morning. I checked the time on my phone, it was nearly 10AM. There was also a text from Ro:

Roman: Morning babygirl 😀 I'm at the gym with the guys, be back soon for breakfast! xxx
Me: Aright, I'll be waiting 😘

I hurried into the shower and got dressed. Room service had already delivered our breakfast - coffee, fruit salad, crepes, and whipped cream. There was also a protein shake, probably Ro's. My hair was still too wet to do anything with it, so I just threw it into a messy bun. I heard the guys laughing outside our room, right before Roman came in wearing his shades, and had his gym bag tossed over his shoulder. He threw it on the floor and sprinted over to the bed where I was sitting and playfully tackled me.

[ROMAN POV]

"ROMAN! What are you doing?" She squealed through her giggles. I had my knees dug into the mattress, straddling her waist, and hovered over her with a massive grin on my face.

"Guess what? I just got off the phone with Carano - the creative team is considering a love interest storyline! And let me tell you - the girl they have in mind...she's smokin' hot." I exclaimed.

Her expression suddenly changed, and she began to push me away, "Get off me..."

Before she got too upset, I had to tell her the rest of the news. "But you didn't even ask who it is..."

"I don't care who she is. You enjoy your little storyline with her, alright?" She moved to the opposite end of the bed, facing her back against me.

I crawled up on the bed, standing on my knees, and wrapped my arm around her neck from behind, getting close to her ear, "But I thought you'd be happy to be in an onscreen relationship with me...."

"W-what? Me?"

"Yeah, you, silly! I talked to Vince and Trips into letting you try a short angle or two with me...."

"What?? No-I don't even know anything or how to act in front of the camera..."

"You won't be in an actual match....just hanging around ringside with me....you know so I can show you off....and maybe a backstage promo or two."

"I don't know....but I'll definitely give it my best shot-"

"Yessss!!! So tell me-if I'm not mistaken, was that jealousy I saw a couple of seconds ago??" I raised my brow at her.

"Nooo..."

"Don't lie now... c'mon, admit it - you were slightly worried, weren't you? I know your heart missed a beat..." I continued to tease her. She was all smiles but refused to look me in the eye.

"For your information, Mr. Roman Reigns... I was not jealous of you....so don't flatter yourself."

"Oh yeah? Well, what if I had a storyline with... let's say Summer Rae? What were you gonna do then?" I put an arm on her shoulder and leaned closer to her.

"Nothing....I would have just ripped her hair out of her head." She sarcastically replied.

We both stared at each other for a few seconds before bursting into laughter. I knew she cared enough about me to feel that way. Honestly, Summer's name had come up in the potential storylines, but I had to make it clear to the authority that I didn't want anything to do with her.

[KIRAN POV]

I was a little nervous about being out in front of everyone, and even though I wasn't really doing anything, there were still going to be a lot of people. I was used to the security of an office, away from cameras and whatnot. We had our breakfast while Roman went over some rules of what I can and can not do out by ringside. A few hours later, we got dressed for work and headed to the arena for smackdown. Even though I was off today, I tagged along with the guys as I had nothing better to do.
