Somebody I User To Know (on hold)

Chapter 5: I Still Love You

*3weeks later*

I woke up early the next morning and walked into the main room to see Paige on the couch.

"Hey, wanna hit the gym when Emma gets up?" She asked.

"Yeah, let me go get changed." I said.

I got changed in a sports bra and yoga pants. I pulled my hair up in a pony tail and didn't bother with make up.

Emma eventually woke up and we left. We picked up breakfast and headed straight to the gym.

When we got there, it was so early there was no one else there.

"Yes! All to ourselves!" I exclaimed.

"Finally! We never get gyms to ourselves." Emma said.

"Let's get to work, ladies." Paige said.

I put in my ear phones and played my iPod. I started my workout.

*30 minutes later*

I probably should've charged this thing. I put my iPod and ear buds and placed them in my bag.

I heard the door open and shut. I guess someone finally decided to come to the gym.

I turned around to find three somebodys instead. Those somebodys happened to be Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and, of course, Dean Ambrose.

I rolled my eyes. Were they gonna start showing up EVERYWHERE now?

Dean noticed me staring at them. I looked away quickly and walked over to Paige and Emma who were also very aware that The Shield also occupied the gym.

We were the only ones here. What if they like.....tried to rape us? There was three of us....three of them...what was stopping them?

"Great. Look who's here." I said.

"Still don't wanna tell us about Ambrose?" Emma asked.

"You guys don't wanna hear about that." I said.

"Actually we do." Paige said. She looked up. "You know he's staring over here, right?" She asked.

"Well, don't make it obvious that we're talking about him." I said.

"And.....he's coming over here." Paige said.

"Dammit!" I exclaimed.

"Carter." He said my name.

I whipped around. "Need something?" I asked.

"Yeah. I wanna talk." He said.

"There's really nothing to say, Dean." I said.

"Relax. I'm not gonna try and get you back or anything. Maybe I can show you some moves." He said. "You're doing great in the ring, and I thought.....maybe you could use some extra help."

"I'm sorry. Do you....do you think this is a friendship here because I think otherwise." I said.

"Come on, Carter. I'm trying." He said.

"Trying to do what?" I asked.

"Trying to help you." He said.

"Well, truth is, I don't need your help." I said.

"No, truth is, when I saw you yesterday, I immediately felt something." He said.

Everything got quiet. He searched my eyes for an answer.

"So what? What do you mean?" I asked.

"Carter, I still love you."
