Taking the Reigns

18.

~Backstage after incident~

As soon as I reached backstage all eyes were on me. I knew I messed up. I shouldn't have ran out like that. I could see Stephanie already standing at my locker with her arms crossed.

"Ariana, what the hell was that stunt you pulled out there. That wasn't planned. That could have been very dangerous.'' Stephanie said looking me in the eyes.

I didn't want to lose my job. I love working here this is my dream and I could've possibly thrown it all away because of these weird feelings.

I opened my mouth to apologize but I was cut off by Steph.

"That's it! This is brilliant! This is what the storyline needs to move forward." She said smiling. I was so confused at this point. Did she just say that this is a good thing? What did I just get myself into.

~on my way out~

I had just changed and exited the arena. There were so many people outside I could see and hear people screaming my name to come take a picture and say hi, so I did. In the corner of my eye I saw Romans large figure take a few pictures and walk away.

I wanted so badly to call him over and talk to him, but I was afraid. A little girl around the age of 6 wearing a Bella twins shirt pulled me down to her height and whispered into my ear, "Go talk to Roman he's walking away. He got a booboo and only you can fix it. I think he has a crush on you." I smiled and whispered back, ''I have a crush on him. Shhh it's a secret." I stood up and quickly ran into the direction Roman walked to. As I turned the corner I could see him slamming his fists onto the top of his car in frustration. It must have been because of the Seth thing. I wanted so badly to comfort him, but it was not my place so I began to walk away. I ran into a trash can which caught his attention, but I booked it so he couldn't tell it was me.

~3 months after that night~

Time went on, mine and Romans storyline went on as it was supposed to it seemed like we liked eachother, but when the cameras were off it was like it was nothing. The feud between him and the authority continued. They recently began bringing up a plan to get him to give up which noone knew about. I could catch him constantly staring at me, but he would stare and nothing else. As the time flew my feelings for him grew stronger. It was no longer confusion with these feelings. I knew now that I liked him and I wanted nothing more than for him to want me back, but I knew that I needed to stop. Roman did not want me, why would he? Nothing will happen between us and I need to get over it. Right?

(Wrong, I was so wrong.)
