Who Do You Want? {DISCONTINUED}

"I wish I would've known that they were going to do that." I looked across to look up at brown eyes gazing back at mine. Currently, I was in my hotel room with Mercedes. Now it may seem a bit weird and a bit fishy but we weren't doing anything more than talking.

This has been happening between us for a while now. We either meet at my or her hotel room but since we couldn't meet up at hers, we met up at mine, obviously.

We've talked about any other thing that didn't include any of us. But now we were on the topic of Wrestlemania or the attack Finn did to me in my match that cause Jon to win.

A chuckle escaped from my lips, "Hey, it's fine. You didn't know what was going to happen and neither did I."

"Yeah but I hang out with them most of the time and I didn't know that they were plotting that." She responded with a sigh. "It's ok, Mercedes. It wasn't your fault so you don't have to kill yourself over it, alright?" I spoke with a grin at my face.

You know, back then I probably would've been mad at her or even hated her because those are her friends but I've noticed that she had no involvement in their plan so why was I going to be mad at her?

I wish I had this state of mind back then cause' then I would've never have lost her in the first place. "But you seem to care about me a little bit more than you're letting on," I smirked as her eyes looked over into mine and a smile formed on her face.

She shook her head a bit, "Colby," She took a deep breath in before the smile faded away. I straightened up in my seat and scratched my head in fear since I felt like I did something wrong.

"I will always care about you. I mean, just because we're broken up doesn't mean that my feelings for you would change." Those words spoke smoothly through her lips.

I tried to choose my next words carefully because this next question could make everything awkward, "So....do you still love me?"

Her eyebrows rose and her eyes slightly widened as I sat there, observing her. She ran one of her hands through her hair before letting out a sigh. Then her eyes met mine, "I-

She only said that one word before she was interrupted by her phone ringing. She took it out of her pocket and touched the screen and brought it up to her ear:

"Hello?"

"I'm over at a friend's place. Why?"

"Ok, ok. I'll be there in a few minutes."

"Yeah I know. Now, calm down. I'll be there."

"Alright, bye."

She slid the phone back in her pocket and looked at me, "You have to leave?" I asked, slightly upset but I tried not to show it. I've actually loved speaking to her since I've missed her so much throughout this past weeks.

But she's with someone else and I'll have to accept that for now.

"Yeah, sorry." She apologized as we both stood up from the couch. "Don't apologize." I chuckled, beginning to walk her to the door. She walked beside me and we remained in front of the door, "Well I see you later then." She smiled and my heart jumped just seeing her beautiful smile.

My lips curved into a grin as she reached for the door and placed her hand on the knob before I raised my eyebrow, "No hug?" I questioned with my arms out as she looked back at me. She laughed before wrapping her arms around me.

I wrapped my arms around her in a tight embrace until it was the right time to let go. I didn't want to but I had to, "Goodnight, Colby." She smiled once again and I smiled as well. "Goodnight, Mercedes."

She opened the door and it revealed Joe standing there, staring at his phone. He then looked up and saw Mercedes and I which led him to raise his eyebrow. He didn't speak a word so she slipped past him and quickly walked down the hallway.

Joe watched her until his eyes looked back at me. His eyebrows bent in an upset way as I scratched the back of my neck, "Hey, Joe. How's it going?" I spoke, smiling widely and knowing that I was in trouble.

He put his phone in his pocket and crossed his arms, "She's passing enemy lines, Colby." He responded, his expression staying in that angry way.

I looked on the floor, stupidly and jokingly, "I don't see any lines so I don't know what you're talking about." I chuckled, nervously and he sighed, deeply. "I'm not playing around, Colby."

I sighed, knowing that he was angry, "I know she is, Joe." I responded, exhaling deeply as he relaxed a bit. "Let's talk about it then." He pushed past me into my room and I let out a breath.

This is going to be nice. I took another deep breath in before closing the door.
