We woke up together on the sofa and got up and stretched but when we looked at the time on the clock near the now auto-off tv. It said eleven thirty in the morning. We smiled as we looked at each other. "Morning Mercy."
"Morning baby." She grinned as she slid into my arms and kissed me for three minutes and pulled away. "I can't believe we fell asleep on the sofa." She giggled.
"Neither can I. Well, we better get packed for our flight. Let's not forget. TLC's tomorrow night. And we have a lot of preparation to do."
"I know." She headed to the bathroom to get a shower in before she started packing for the road. The moment she was out of sight I ran to the old office that was turned into my new study. Walked over to my desk, laid on my back and pulled the first drawer out about six inches, the third about five inches and the second out about seven inches. A spot on the desk popped open and I slid all three drawers closed and stood up and opened the compartment on the desk all the way to reveal a small black box. I snagged the box and closed the compartment and got a headstart on packing.
Once Sasha was done showering. She kissed me as I headed in to get my shower over with and she was packed by the time I got out of the shower.
Once we were both ready. We headed to the airport and caught the first flight to TLC.Once we arrived in San Jose, California home to TLC this year which was early the next morning. Sasha and I headed directly to the hotel and checked in. We weren't too tired considering we slept on the plane but we decided to take a few hours nap before we headed to the arena. Once we woke from that. We just gathered what we needed for tonight then headed to the arena.
We were met by Natalya, Alicia Fox, Kevin Owens, and Roman Reigns. "Hey, guys." I greeted.
"Rumor has it that you bought a house over your time off." Roman smiled.
"That's correct." Sasha grinned.
"Maybe you should invite us over next time we have some time off." Alicia said.
"Sounds fair." I replied. We headed to our locker room leaving Natalya, Alicia, Kevin, and Roman in the hall.TLC had been going for close to an hour and a half.
And once she was changed into her attire of the night. "Baby. You ready?" She asked.
"What do you think?" I came around the corner and she looked at me in the black jeans, boots, tank top, trenchcoat and black straight brimmed cowboy hat and half skull painted on the right side of my face.
"I'd say you are." She smiled. "Is it safe to kiss you. I'm not going to smudge your face paint?"
"No. It's totally safe to kiss me Mercy." I pulled her in for a nice loving kiss. Then pulled away and looked at our reflection in the mirror. "Well, we always wanted to be the Beauty and the Beast." I joked. She lightly slapped my chest and after one more kiss, we headed to the gorilla.
Once we got there Baron Corbin had already gotten to the ring and Alexa smiled as we approached the gorilla.
"Well, be ready to lose tonight. There's no way your gonna win tonight. And Sasha's champion aspirations will die on the vine tonight." She bragged.
"We'll see. Who, DIES tonight." I gruffly said as I rolled my eyes into the back of my head scaring Alexa. Once Alexa left us alone and I looked to Sasha. "You better not be nervous Mercy."
"I'm not." She grinned.
"Good I wouldn't want to be the only one." I joked and she smiled and laughed a bit. Sasha's music hit and she pulled me down to kiss me once more before heading out. I closed my eyes and within a split second. I was in character. 'Death's Outlaw'. I opened my eyes when the opening notes for Johnny Cash's 'Ain't No Grave' started playing. When the sound of chains hit I walked out and to the ring. The lights were out and I made my way into the ring as Corbin and Bliss cleared out of the ring and Sasha stood in the corner after I entered the ring and stood in the center. I did the cross over my chest and placed my hands together for a moment in front of me and bowed my head and just lifted them swiftly up and the lights burst on. I took off my coat and hat and handed them to the timekeeper and stood next to Sasha. Then Corbin and Bliss got in the ring and stood in the opposite corner. Jojo then announced all of us.
"This match is set for one fall. Introducing first from Columbus, Ohio. She is the RAW Women's Champion Alexa Bliss. And her partner from Kansas City, Missouri. Baron Corbin. Their opponents introducing first from Boston, Massachusetts. Sasha Banks. And her partner from Menan, Idaho. 'The Man Of A Thousand Faces'. Daniel Boyce." Jojo got out of the ring and Alexa was so scared by me in my Deaths Outlaw attire that she insisted that Baron start the match. But the rules for this one dictated that she and Sasha face off to start. So I took my place on the apron and Sasha smiled as Alexa got in begrudgingly. But did all the same.10 minutes into the match, Sasha and I were dominating the match. Kept each other fresh with constant tags. Alexa rolled out of the ring as Sasha tagged me in Baron had to come in as per the rules of a mixed tag team match.
before he came out of the corner he had slipped some brass knuckles on and nailed me in the cheek. I fell to the canvas. He went for the cover only for me to kick out at two and while he was having a tantrum in his corner. I sat up scaring him as I stood up and approached him, grabbed his arm, then wrist and with very little effort snapped it. He screamed in pain as I looked at him coldly. He quickly found out why this persona was called Death's Outlaw. Because I wrapped both hands around his neck and performed not one but two Last Rites Bombs on him.
I looked at the crowd, my cheek becoming swollen and red from where the knuckles struck me. I lifted him to his feet again and tossed him towards the ropes and when he rebounded I caught him by the throat with my left hand, lifted him high in the air and did a sit out chokeslam powerbomb that people in the arena knew as the Casket Slam. I stood up and covered him but Alexa I could sense had climbed to the top rope and was about to do Twisted Bliss until I rolled out of the way causing her to nail Corbin with Twisted Bliss. Sasha came in and performed Bankrupt as I lifted Corbin up and spun him until he was upside down and placed him in the corner on the top turnbuckle and I climbed to the top and with some difficulty, pulled Corbin up until his head was above my knees and his legs slightly bending forward over my shoulder and after I stepped down a turnbuckle. I leapt up and performed an Avalanche Tombstone Piledriver which I called 'The Final Nail In The Coffin'. I crossed Corbin's arms over his chest and held them there as the ref counted a three count victory for me and Sasha. After a moment a pair of old cowboy looking guys wheeled a casket to ringside and opened it and I rolled Corbin into it and closed the lid. The older one of the bunch handed me a handkerchief that had the ring box hidden within it. Sasha smiled as she joined me in the ring. Alexa followed the casket containing Corbin up the ramp and out of sight. Sasha intertwined her hand with mine and raised our hands in the air. "Here are your winners. Sasha Banks and Daniel Boyce." Jojo announced. I looked at the timekeeper and asked for a mic. Which Jojo gave to me.
"Cut the music. Sorry. But I can't just let this moment pass without doing something I've been waiting to do for at least a week or two." I looked at Sasha and looked at my kerchiefed hand. "Sasha. Ever since we met. I had this feeling for a long time that you were special. And I was right. Not only are you special to this business. But to me specifically." Sasha started to tear up as she smiled and said that she felt the same about me. "So, after asking your mother and your cousin Snoop Dogg for permission. I can now without worry, reservation or hesitation." I pulled the kerchief off and exposed the black ring box. Sasha clasped both hands over her mouth and nose as I got on one knee. "Ask this question." I looked up at Sasha who had tears streaming down her cheeks. "Mercedes Kaestner-Varnado." I opened the box and exposed what looked like a vintage diamond engagement ring. "Will you do me the honor. Of becoming my wife?" The crowd stayed quiet, waiting with bated breath to hear Sasha's reply or answer.
"Yes." She said and I took the ring out of the box and slipped it onto her finger and stood up and she leapt into my arms and kissed me with enough passion and love that it would have made my face paint run. She pulled away far enough to just touch our foreheads together. "I love you, Daniel."
"I love you more Mercy." I smiled. We separated held hands and we raised the ringed hand up in the air to the cheers and applause of the crowd. After another moment or two, we headed back to our locker room. Everyone of the superstars congratulated us both. Men and women alike.
After we celebrated our engagement with everyone that either had their match or were scheduled for later in the night. We headed to the hotel after I washed my face paint off and changed into some clean street clothes. Sasha still couldn't believe that I had proposed to her after our match. "Baby. You have made me the happiest girl in the world tonight." She smiled as she and I just laid on top of the blankets on the hotel rooms bed. "I mean. Was this your mother's engagement ring?"
"No. It was my great grandma Fern Boyce's. I saved it from the junk pile after my family cleaned out her house. Which means just me and Gary cleaned out her home."
"Well it's beautiful and I love it." She kissed my cheek. She cuddled closer to me and rested her head on my chest and after a while we felt the exhaustion from the excitement and the hard falls and hits from the match caught up with us, so we got under the covers and I took my glasses off, put them on the bedside table and turned off the light as the sandman hit me and Sasha hard and we fell into a deep slumber.
