Convince Me *WWE*

Chapter Twenty-Two

It's been a couple of weeks and I've taken time off from WWE. Finn has texted and called me, but I've never responded.

I can't bring myself to respond, I know if I do, I'll fall for him harder.

My phone vibrates and I check it. It's from Finn.

I'm always so happy when he texts me, it's like he hasn't forgotten about me. But it also makes me so angry, I just want to be left alone.

Without even checking the text, I delete it.

A few minutes later, there's light knocking at my door. I have no idea who it could be and I open it.

"Bayley."

"How'd you find me?"

"I wasn't going to stop until I did."

I cross my arms, "Well you can leave."

Finn doesn't listen and walks closer to me, my knees tremble slightly.

I smell the alcohol coming from, "Why are you drinking again?"

He backs up and laughs, "It helps numb the pain."

"What pain?"

"The pain of not seeing you."

I laugh humorlessly and he stares at me.

"You," I poke his chest, "You think you know what pain is? Pain is looking at someone you're falling for with someone else."

"How do you think I felt when you were with Aaron? How do you think it felt to watch you get hurt over and over and over and over again? I couldn't do a damn thing about it, Bayley. I couldn't do a damn thing to help you."

I step closer to him, "Well if we're talking about Aaron. Why do you think I don't trust guys Finn? Why? All they have ever done was hurt me. I've been hurt over and over again. If you think you broke me. You're certainly wrong."

He laughs and anger burns through my body. I slap his as hard as I can and he stumbles. I can't control myself and I start hitting him and punching him.

Finn holds my arms and puts his arms around me trying to calm me down.

"Get off of me!" I scream.

He holds me tightly, so I can't get out of his grip.

I look in his eyes and calm down. He calms me down by just looking at me.

"I'm sorry." He says quietly.

"Finn just leave."

I look at his face and there's a hand mark.

He holds my hand and kisses it.

"Bayley, I'm sorry."

I turn my back to him and he puts his hand on my shoulder.

"Don't touch me." I say while pushing his hand off of me.

"Do you really want me to leave?"

I close my eyes, I really don't want him to leave, but I can't stand him right now.

"Finn."

He smiles slightly and walks past me into my house. I shut the door and see him sitting on the couch.

"Do you forgive me?" He asks while looking down.

I sit down next to him, "How can I believe you?"

I shake my head and he moves closer to me.

"Well Bayley. How long do you have left until you go back to NXT?"

"Only a couple of days."

"I took a few days off."

I groan and he gives me a confused look.

"You're making it so hard to be mad at you."

He laughs, "Then don't be mad at me."

"Finn... just leave."

"Do you really want me to leave?"

I bite my lip and look down.

"Do you want me to leave?" He repeats.

He stands up and walks to the door, just before he walks out, I sigh and say, "No."

He turns around, "No what?"

"I don't want you to leave."

"Good."

He walks back over to me.

I pull him into a hug, "Thank you."

He plays with my hair, "What do you mean?"

"You didn't give up on me."

I kiss his cheek and he laughs.

"Why would I ever give up on you?"

"How did you get here?" I ask.

He shrugs, "Sami drove me."

"Where is he?"

Finn hesitates a little, "He... uh... had to go back."

"Okay." I say, not fully convinced.

We turn on the TV and start watching WWE.

"They're in Brooklyn, New York?" I ask.

Finn nods, "Yeah."

Sami walks out and my heart drops. There's no way he could drive from Orlando to Brooklyn that fast. I watch the TV sadly.

Why'd Finn lie to me?
