Forever My Shield (WWE Briereigns Fanfiction)

Chapter 3 - Hospital Rush

The last time I could remember anything, I was in the arena. They must've given me certain medication because I slowly started to get my vision and hearing back.

My eyes flickered open and I was strapped to a stretcher with an oxygen mask on my face, surrounded by doctors. Nicole was at my side telling me that everything's going to be okay.

I faintly remember Bryan running through the crowd of concerned superstars trying to get to me.

"Brianna! Brie, are you okay!?" he said worriedly while stroking my hair back. I didn't say anything but slowly shook my head, as I felt too weak to move and my eyes shut in the meantime.

*8.30pm*

Once again, I slowly opened my eyes. I woke up to a beautiful sight of flowers placed along the end of the bed. I smiled to myself.

I looked around the room. There was a continuous beeping noise in the background. I had several wires attached to my arms and I was dressed in one of those, not so fashionable, blue hospital gowns.

I laid back and stared up at the ceiling. Suddenly the door creaked open slowly. I turned my head and looked at the door. My eyes felt drowsy & heavy. I saw a hand poke through waving a basket. That person then knocked on the door and peeped their head through. It was none other than, Roman Reigns.

"Can I come in?" he asked.

"If you have a glass of ice cold water and fruit salad, you can waltz right in here," I said.

"I've got a basket of gifts? If that helps," he said.

"I'm just kidding, come straight through," I said while smiling.

He came in and I was really surprised to see him. We'd never even hanged out or talked properly. Other than that awkward moment earlier in the day.

"I'm sorry for barging in here, especially as I'm still in my ring gear. I didn't have enough time to change and get to the hospital in time," he said standing above me.

"Oh, no that's perfectly fine," I replied smiling.

"I brought you a gift," he said. Roman handed me the basket. I looked inside with a huge smile on my face. The basket was full of many different lotions, bath bombs, body scrubs etc.

"Wow, thank you!" I exclaimed. "These are all of my favourites, how did you know?"

"Lucky guess," he said and laughed a little. "So, I saw the accident. What happened out there?" He sat on stool by the end of the bed.

"From what I can remember, after Tamina dumped me out the ring my vision went blurry and my hearing was fading. I don't remember much after that," I told him.

"Oh, well I hope you feel better soon," he said.

Before I could thank him, the door suddenly bust open. Nikki came through holding a huge plant. She struggled to walk as she couldn't see what was in front of her.

As she waddled through she said, "Brianna, you'll never guess who I saw! I saw Reigns wondering around in the hospital. Is he like stalking you-" she stopped herself instantly after she put the plant down and looked up.

"Oh, hello," she said awkwardly realising that Roman was in the room as she spoke about him.

"Hey there, Brie I better go. Get well soon," he told me as he got up and left the room.

"Nicole! Really?" I said a little angrily.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know he was in here. I couldn't see because of this stupid plant," she said trying to apologise.

"What if someone was in here? What if Bryan was in here!?" I quietly yelled.

"Alright, alright! It was an accident. I still can't believe Roman Reigns came to visit you," she said in shock and laughing a bit.

I slapped my palm to my forehead. "This is so bad," I told her.

"What? What could possibly happen?" she asked.

"I don't even know the guy and he actually cared enough to visit me. We were getting along until you came in here and called him my stalker," I said sounding quite upset.

"It's not that bad, alright? Don't stress yourself out before that thing starts beeping faster," Nikki said.

I slowly took a deep breath out trying to calm down. "Who gave the plant?" I asked.

"Nattie and T.J. They asked me to drop it off for you because they had a plane to catch," she explained.

I smiled while looking at the plant. "Any news from the doctor," I then asked.

"Oh, right, about that..." Nikki looked down.

I sat up in the bed quickly. "Nicole, what's going on?" I said in a worried tone.

"So, you're still on painkillers right? The doctors want to know what you ate or drank before the match when you took your medication," she told me.

"I had a salad, like I normally do, and I took my medication with an energy drink, why? What's wrong with me?" I asked her.

"While you were sleeping, the doctors ran some tests and they discovered that you might have been..." she paused.

"What? Nicole?"

"They think your medications were switched on purpose before the match without you knowing. In other words, somebody might of tried to drug you."
