"So glad to be in Oklahoma, City. The weather is nice." Emma says squeezing into her attire. "Yeah." I say as I watch the girls get ready. I still can't wrestle because of my ribs. WWE does not want me to show up at any live event or pay-per-view until I am fully recovered.

Which truly sucks. I hate the fact that I have to watch my friends wrestle and doing what I love doing most while I just have to sit back and watch. "When are you making you official return?" I ask Brie who is sitting beside me. "Extreme Rules." She grins and I smile, "Great! I bet you're extremely happy."

She nods, "Yeah, it was a long nine months." she says, "So, is Nikki turning on Seth?" Eva says butting in our conversation. "No, Jane and Mark don't think its the right time. Plus it will be too predictable, I guess they'll do it when people less expect it."

After Emma finishes getting ready we walk out, we sit on chairs and watch the match that's currently happening. It's Dolph Ziggler against Randy Orton. When I see Randy I suddenly feel bad for leaving him hanging the other night.

I told him I'd be back and I left. I'm too busy watching the match that I don't notice Roman approach us. "Hey Roman!" Emma says excitedly waving her hand. "Hey Emma," he says with a smile, "Hey Paige."

"Hi." I say shyly not looking into his eyes. "What are you doing tonight? Maybe we could go out or something." Emma says twirling her hair. "I'd love to Emma, but I'm actually very tired. After my match, I'm heading to the hotel. I need to think about stuff." I feel him looking at me but I try to ignore it and keep looking at the match.

"Oh," I can hear the hurt in Emma's voice and it makes me feel so bad. It's because of me that Roman does not like her. I'm the cause of her heartache.

"Well maybe another time." She says and even though I'm not looking at her, I know she's faking a smile. "Maybe. I'll see you ladies later." I don't look away from the tv until I hear his steps disappear down the hall.

"Wow, that finisher Randy did was insane." I say looking at Emma, she nods but looks sad. "Are you okay, Emma?" She looks at me with so much sadness I literally feel my heart break.

"Emma," I say slowly, her eyes starts to get watery and before she has time to speak the tears fall from her eyes. "Emma!" I say pulling her in for a hug.

She hugs me and I feel my shirt get wet with her tears. "Emma, what's wrong?" She cries silently for a few minutes and finally looks up. She wipes her tears and takes a deep breath. "I'm just so sad. Like I don't understand why Roman doesn't like me. I like him so much Paige, and it hurts because I try so hard and he just doesn't like me."

I swallow the huge knot in my throat and blink away my tears. "Emma, it's okay. Don't be sad, listen you're beautiful okay? You deserve everything, hell you deserve the world and if Roman can't see that then he's obviously not worth it."

She smiles wiping her eyes, "Thank you. You're honestly the best, I'm so thankful you're my best friend. I love you." She hugs me and I hug her back.

But I'm not the best. I'm such a sucky friend, and I can't stop her from hurting. So all I can do is hug her and tell her how important she is.

When we let go she sighs looking at her hand, "Dang it. I screwed up my makeup." I wipe some running mascara from her cheek, "It's okay. You can get it fixed."

We get up and as we walk to the place we bump into Randy. I hold my breath as I feel embarrassed, I hope he doesn't mention that I left with Roman.

"Hey Paige, hey Emma." He's panting and has sweat running down his chest. Even though he's all sweaty he still smells extremely good, "Hi Randy." I say and Emma speaks up, "Well hello." She gives me a look and I ignore it.

"Haven't talked to you since that night." He wipes some sweat off his forehead and I clear my throat, "Oh yeah. Umm, I didn't feel so good and well- I'm sorry I didn't mean to- you know-"

He laughs, "It's fine. You don't have to give me any explanations." He smiles and I nod glancing at Emma who has a smirk on her face. "Okay well I have to take a quick shower, maybe we could hang out sometime, Paige. See you around Emma." He walks away and I finally start breathing normal again.

"Oh. My. Gosh. Randy Orton asked you on a date!" Emma sequels, "Woahhh, Emma. Chill. He said we could hang out, he didn't ask me out."

We continue walking and she squeals again, "Same thing. But why didn't you tell me about him? When did this all happen?" She sounds so excited for me, I wish I could be that excited. It'll all be so much easier if I liked Randy instead of Roman.

"I didn't say anything because nothing happened. We just danced a couple songs and chat for a bit. That was it." We approach the makeup table and she sits down, "Sorry I kinda messed this up." She tells the lady who starts reapplying her makeup.

"Oh and hello that's a huge deal! I wish Roman would ask me to hang out, that'd make me the happiest girl ever. But he won't," she makes a sad face again, "Oh Emma." I say sadly.

"But at least you can be happy with, Randy." She smiles at me and I smile back because that's all I can do.

After she gets her makeup done we wait behind the curtain for her call. We spot Roman at the end of the hall talking to Seth. "Do you think Roman likes someone else?" Emma suddenly says.

"Uh." It's all that comes out. "I think he does. Whoever she is, she's very lucky." She says closing her eyes and rubbing her temples.

If only you knew, Emma. I'm not that lucky because I can't have him. It's not right. It's such a terrible thing, I either have to make myself happy and make her miserable or the other way around.
