You sat on the bed of your hotel room. It was empty being as though Finn went to pick up a pizza. The curtains were drawn. TV was off. Only one lamp dimly lit the room. Your eyes glued to your hands that sat in your lap. You had an energy drained feeling. Like the life had been sucked out of you. You couldn't feel a dang thing. You felt numb. Empty.
Rumors had spread through the whole locker room. Usually you didn't care, but this particular rumor bothered you. It really bothered you. Not enough to make a big deal about it. Just bothered you enough to make you feel the way you felt. The rumor was you had helped Finn cheat on his last girlfriend. It wasn't true. You knew that. He knew that. She knew that. By now the WWE Universe probably knows that, but it didn't make you feel any better. Even though you knew you couldn't listen to the hate and you shouldn't care what people think the thoughts would just show up in your mind. What if some people actually believe it? What if your family believes it? Your friends? Even worse what if Finn's family believes it? It was all just a big mess you couldn't fix, and you were usually quite good at fixing it.
"Hey y/n I'm-"
As soon as Finn's eyes landed on you he stopped in his tracks. The door shut slowly and he sat everything down. You felt the bed dip beside you. Finn's eyes tracing over your face. He didn't say a word though. Just waited for you to say what was on your mind.
"I know I shouldn't think about it" you started with a sigh, "but it's really hard not to"
"I know" he said softly
"Like what if you family saw the article Finn?" You asked your eyes scaling up to the ceiling, "I can only imagine what would my family would think"
"We can't stop them from thinking what they're thinking" he told you, "but the important thing is we know it's not true, (insert his ex-girlfriend's name) knows it's not true"
"I guess" you replied barely above a whisper looking back at your hands, "still doesn't make me feel better"
"I know"
He placed a soft kiss on your temple. You wrapped your arms around his neck as he pulled you into his lap. You buried your face in his neck.
"We'll get through this" he whispered in your ear, "the truth will come I promise"
You nodded and rose up bringing your forehead to his.
"I promise" he repeated
