Moving On (New Version)

7. What's wrong?

Rose ran around the corner as the tears took over she was so hurt and heartbroken over what Colby said to her she couldn't believe her own best friend would make her chose between him and another guy she was so lost in thought that she wasn't paying attention to where she was going and ran smack into someone.

"Rose what's wrong?" Leati asked standing her up she didn't say anything just shoved her face into his chest and cried harder "Baby you have to tell me what's wrong so I can help" he said rubbing her back

"it's nothing Le" Rose said pulling away from him "I need to go" she said taking off down the hall.

Leati was confused on what could have happened to upset her so much feeling lost he went to find Renee to see If she knew what was going on "Re" he said walking up to her

"Hey" she said "is something wrong?" she asked

"Yeah but I don't know what" he told her

"What do you mean?" she asked

"Well I was heading to catering when I ran into Rose literally and she was crying but when I asked her what was wrong she said nothing and took off" he told her

"Hmm" Renee said running a hand through her hair "let me find her and see if she will talk" Renee told him

"Thank you" he said

"Don't worry I'm sure it's nothing" she told him before leaving to look for Rose.

Renee searched everywhere but wasn't having any luck she walked to gorilla and found Paul sitting at the table going over tonight's show "Hey do you have minute?" she asked him

"Yeah" he said standing up and walking to the side with her

"Have you seen Rose?" she asked

"Not since earlier why?" he asked

Renee told him about what Leati said he shook his head and put his hands on hips "I think I might know where she is ill go talk to her" he said walking off

Paul went down the hall where no one was and found an empty room he checked the knob to see if it was unlocked and when It turned he found Rose sitting on table with her head in her hands crying.

"What's wrong?" he asked shutting the door

"Everything" she whispered "Colby is pissed that I am spending time with Joe" she told him

"What did he say?" Paul asked

"That he is no good and has baggage and that if I decided to be in relationship with him that we can't be friends anymore" Rose said

"That's bullshit" Paul yelled "He has no right to make you chose" he said

"I know" she said "I watched him for years be with woman after woman and I never said anything and I get it that was my fault too but I never once told him to make choice" she said

"Screw Colby" Paul said "if he was a good friend he wouldn't ask you to give up your happiness" he said "He would be happy that your even letting someone close to you after what you been through" he added

"What do I do?" she asked "He is my best friend Paul" she said looking at the ground

"I know but are you really going to pass up a chance with a really great guy just because Colby wants you too?" he asked her

Rose sat there thinking everything over for a minute playing each choice out in her head but they all came back to the same conclusion Rose hurt in the end.

"You have to follow your heart and gut on this one" He told her as he walked over and pulled her into a hug

"How did you know where I was?" she asked

"Your my little sister Ro that's how" he said kissing her head "Now let's go you have a match" he told her as they headed for the door

Rose wrapped her arm around his waist and walked down the hall "You realize you told me who the guy was right" he said with a smirk

"I hate you" she said pushing him away

Rose walked pass Dean, Renee, and Leati but didn't say anything as she went to make up to get cleaned up.

"She ok?" Renee asked Paul

"Uh she will be just a lot on her mind right now" he told her "I gave her the big brother advice but maybe she needs the best friend advice" he told Renee

Renee walked over to Rose and tapped her shoulder "hey do you want to have a beer after the show just us?" she asked her

"I would love that" Rose told her

Rose stood with her attention on the fans trying to ignore her heart and her head and there dueling emotions she knew the next thirty minutes were going to be awkward. Leati's entrance music hit and she couldn't help but smile as he made his way to the ring they made eye contact and he winked at her giving her the same butterflies as before he got in the ring and stood next to her.

Colby's music hit and her whole attitude changed and Leati took notice to it he watched as Colby gave Rose a cold hard stare then him a straight go to hell look it clicked that he had something to with why she was so upset earlier.

"Can we talk after the show?" he asked

"I can't I have plans" Rose said turning away and going to the apron.

After the match was over Rose took off up the ramp and to the locker rooms before anyone could stop her and got in the shower.

Colby walked to the locker room with a smirk on his face because he had Rose right where he wanted her he knew there was no way she pick someone over him.

Leati waited outside the women's locker room for Rose hoping he could catch her to so they could talk after about ten minutes the door opened and she walked out "Hey" he said going toward her but she took a step to the side and went pass him.

"Did I do something?" he asked

"No you didn't do anything I just need to think" she said leaving him there.

Rose took a long swig of her beer before telling Renee what Colby said "Are you serious?" she yelled

"Re calm down" Rose said as everyone looked at them

"No I won't" she said "Who in the hell does he think he is telling you to pick?" she said "You told him to fuck off right?" she said drinking her beer

"It's not that easy" Rose said

"Yeah it is" Renee said "Stop letting him control your life" Renee said

"He doesn't control my life" Rose said defensive

"Anytime that man says jump you do it" she said "How many dates have you canceled because of him?" she asked

"A lot" Rose said

"Look Rose I love you and want you to be happy that's why it pisses me off so much that he treats you like a doormat" she said "but it's your choice I just hope you make the right one" she added

They walked back to the hotel and to Rose's room "We will be in the lobby at nine to leave for the park I really hope your done there with us" Renee said before going to her room

Rose went into the room and put her bags down grabbing her phone reading Colby's message

I'm sorry I was such a dick earlier it's just I don't want to watch you get hurt and ever since he has been single he has bounced from women to women and I don't want you to be just another girl. I'm only looking out for you Ro I hope you know that. Will be in the lobby at nine to go around the city I hope you join us- Colby
