Bayley's POV
(Present)
I pace back and forth trying to get rid of the nerves as I get ready to debut for the first time on NXT. They haven't said who I'm going up against but they said that it was her debut as well."Hey, Bayley!" I hear someone call out as I turn around. "I want you to come and meet the girl your going up against." I hear Mr. Regal say. "Okay, where is she?" I ask. "At catering last time I saw, follow me." He said.
We made our way to catering as I saw someone who looked quite familiar, I couldn't quite make out who it was sense their back was turned to me. "Sasha!" I hear him say. Sasha? As in..wait.. as she turned around I felt my heart stop. She looked stunned as well, "Sasha, this is Bayley. Bayley, this is Sasha. You all will be competing against each other tonight."
"Uhm, nice to see you again Bayley." She said awkwardly. "You to Sasha." I said staring at the floor. "You all know each other?" Regal asked. "Yeah uhm, we used to be friends a few years back." Sasha replied acting as if she wasn't a complete bitch who broke my heart. "Alright, well I'll go then. You all probably have a lot to catch up on. Also Bayley, Mikaze finished your gear and he said he put it in your locker." Regal said. "Alright thanks." I replied before he walked off. I was still shocked that the girl who broke my heart 3 years ago is standing right in front of me.
"Alright, well I guess I should go get changed." I said as I turned around and left before she could reply. I made it in the locker room and looked at my gear, wow I cant believe this is actually happening.
As I was staring at my gear I heard the locker room door open and close. I turn around to see Sasha walking in. She gave me a slight smile and I felt small butterflies in my stomach, God I missed that smile. Wait, no! She hurt you. Dont trust her. "Hey, can we talk?" She said as she walked up to me. "What's there to talk about?" I asked trying to act like my stomach wasnt doing flips just from her talking to me. "Well, we are about to debut and I really dont want to mess this up. If we feel weird in the ring together the crowd will notice, I think we should just clear some things up." She said looking a little nervous.
She's right. I've wanted this for as long as I can remember and I'm willing to do anything for it. "Okay, so what do you want to talk about?" I asked while I began to change into my gear. I saw her get distracted by me changing for a split second before she said "Well, I wanted to talk about what I said. I didnt mean any of it, I was just scared and I guess when I get scared I get defensive and I never ment to hurt you the way I did. I'm sorry."
"Why were you scared?" I asked her. "Look, I know this might seem silly but I was scared of my parents." She said looking a little embarrassed. "They always taught me that homosexuality is bad and that it's a sin.." she continued. "..So when you told me that you loved me I got scared, I didnt know what to do. I was caught up in what everyone else thought about me I forgot about the only person who really mattered to me, and I know I couldve handled it better but I wasnt thinking and I'm so sorry for everything I said."
The apology looked genuine, she looked like she was still hiding something. "Why haven't you talked to me in 3 years then?" I asked sternly as I finished putting on my gear. "I dont know, I guess I just didnt know what to say." She said as she looked at the ground and started fidgeting with her hands. I still feel as if she is hiding something, but maybe Im just overthinking to much. "Okay, well you should get ready for our match. It starts in half an hour, I'll meet you at gorilla." I said before turning to walk away.
As I made it to the door Sasha asked "So are we good?" "Yeah, we're good." I replied giving her a smile that she quickly returned.
I was waiting by gorilla as I began pacing again. "There ain't not stopping us now.." Well, that's my que I guess. As i went out there i felt all of my nerves slowly disappear, it was as if I was ment for this.
As soon as I was in the ring I hear Sasha's music play, when I looked at her we made eye contact for a split second. Before I knew it I had butterflies all over again, and not from nerves.
She looked so cute in that gear, I know it will never happen but a girl can dream. As she walked closer my heart stopped, we shared a small smile before the bell rang.
I was still somewhat distracted by the fact that my best friend from 3 years ago was here, cuter then before I might add. I dont think I will ever stop getting butterflies from being with her. What are you doing to me Sasha Banks?
