Work Text:

Turn the lights on!

Every night I rush to my bed
With hopes that maybe I'll get a chance to see you when I close my eyes
I'm going outta my head
Lost in a fairytale
Can you hold my hands and be my guide?

Clouds filled with stars cover your skies
And I hope it rains
You're the perfect lullaby
What kind of dream is this?

You can be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way I don't wanna wake up from you
(Turn the lights on!)
Sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Somebody pinch me, your love's too good to be true
(Turn the lights on!)

It was not the first time that you had seen him around and you were quite sure that it wouldn't be the last time. And of course you knew who he was. Who didn't after all? It was no big secret around here that the wrestlers - both male and female - of the WWE would workout in your usual gym from time to time. Basically everyone was so used to it by now that they didn't even raise an eyebrow when one of them entered. Quite the contrary actually. It was a common thing to workout together with them from time to time if chances were given. However, that didn't mean that you were absolutely immune to every WWE Superstar that entered. Quite the contrary to be honest. You had to admit that none other than Roman Reigns had drawn you attention. You couldn't help but find him extremely good looking and from what you have heard about him, he seemed to be a completely down to earth and laid back guy. But although he was always friendly to you respectively all of the other gym visitors, he nevertheless stuck by himself or with his buddies primarily whenever he hit the gym. Of course, you had seen him glance over to you from time to time but you just filed that under coincidence.

"Earth to Y/N. Do you hear me?", you snapped out of your thoughts as soon as you realized that one of your best buddies was talking to you. You just hoped that he hadn't realized where your attention was wandering to. "Yeah yeah I hear you, I'm sorry", you sighed as you turned your attention back to the man in front of you. "Seriously Y/N you should really kick him out. I mean let's be honest here. He doesn't have a job nor is he bothered to find one. He lives on your money, he eats your food and so on. And it's not like he's family", your friend mentioned as you replied: "I know Y/F/N, I know. But we've dated for quite some time and when he asked for help after his new relationship ended and he lost his job, it was a point of honor to take him in and let him stay." Your friend shook his head as he replied: "And that was really kind of you. But let's be honest, Y/N. When have you broken up? Three years ago? And how long is he staying at your costs now already, scaring every guy away that you might find interesting enough to invite in?" You thought about it for a second before you sighed, answering: "Almost six months."
