The rest of that week drug on and on and it was finally Sunday. You quickly showered and put on a pair of leggings and a white cropped tank top and your sneakers and WWE zip up hoodie and threw your hair up in a messy bun and made your way to the airport. 

Once you landed, you got in the cab and headed for Colby's house. You recognized his mom's car in the driveway and got out and walked up the driveway and knocked on the door. Holly opened it and gave you a warm smile and opened the door and you made your way inside. You dropped your things and sat down beside Colby on the couch and gave him a hug. He pulled back enough to kiss you and kissed you lovingly. "I missed you so damn much, Colby" "I missed you too". He wrapped his arms around you and smiled widely. His mom took a picture of the two of you without you knowing and sent it to Colby. "I'll see you two later. We just had lunch. Nice seeing you again, Jessica" "Nice seeing you too". She left and closed the door and you got up and locked it and went back to the couch and straddled Colby, careful to not hit his bad knee, and kissed him. "Damn, maybe I should get hurt and make you go back to work more often". You laughed and sat on his left side and laid your head on his shoulder. The two of you spent the rest of the day watching Harry Potter and talking about the past week.

Around 4 the next morning, Colby got up and put on a pair of basketball shorts and a hoodie and his sneakers and you put on a pair of leggings and a long sleeve Seth Rollins T-Shirt with your ugg boots and a messy bun and the two of you made your way to the hospital. After checking in, you were sitting in Colby's room waiting for them to take him to pre-op. 

After about an hour, the nurses came and got him and wheeled his bed to pre-op; leaving you sitting in the waiting room. Colby's mom came in around 5:30 and the two of you talked until the nurse came out and said he was heading to surgery. You went on Instagram and posted a picture of Colby from WrestleMania:

You captioned it: "@wwerollins just went back for his knee surgery. I know he's in good hands, but I'm still worried. I know he'll be back in that ring and holding HIS title again soon. Prayers appreciated!" and added a blue heart and posted it.

A couple of hours later, the nurse came and told you that he was out of surgery and in post-op and she'd come get you when he went into recovery.

Once he was in recovery, you and his mom went back and you grabbed his right hand and he groggily opened his eyes. Once he saw you, he smiled sleepily. "I was wondering when they'd let my smokin hot girlfriend and my beautiful mama come see me". You laughed and bent down and kissed his cheek. "Seriously? I have my knee operated on and a kiss on the cheek is all I get?". You laughed and bent down and kissed his lips. "That's more how I like it. What I really want is to have sex with my girl, but they said it's a no no for a couple of weeks". Your cheeks went blood red and you heard his mom laugh. She walked out into the hall and you followed. "Mrs.Franklin, I am SO SORRY, I had no idea he'd say something like that" "It's okay, sweetie, don't worry about it. My son tends to overshare when he's coming out from under anesthesia". You laughed and she told you she was heading home. You walked back into the room and saw him asleep. You snapped a picture of him and posted it to Instagram and said "He's out! Of surgery and consciousness *laughing face emoji* He did so good! Road to recovery for @wwerollins starts now".

You sat down in the chair beside his bed and held his right hand. 

Around 7 the following morning, the doctor came in and said Colby could go home. He showed him how to put on his knee brace. Once he was ready, you grabbed your things and headed down to get the car. You pulled up in front of the door right as he was being wheeled out the door. You and the nurse helped him into the car and he slept on the way home. Once you pulled in the driveway, his brother helped him inside and you grabbed your things and the 3 of you made your way into the living room. He sat on the couch and took his knee brace off and you propped his knee up with pillows as his brother got his pain meds. After he was settled in, you thanked his brother and he left; leaving the two of you alone. You sat down on the edge of the couch and kissed him. "Thank You for being here. It means a lot" "Don't worry about it, babe". You told him all about what he said in recovery and the two of you laughed about it.

Later that afternoon, you had lunch and watched Friends reruns. 

The next day, you called and told Stephanie that you would be out until Colby started physical therapy. He was starting exactly one week from today and you were nervous, but excited for him to start to get back to normal and get back in the ring.

The week went by faster than you would've liked, but Colby was ready to start his physical therapy. You quickly changed into a pair of black high waisted jeans and tucked in a white tank top and put on white converse and put on your long tan cardigan and put your hair up in a French braid and didn't put on makeup. Colby put on a pair of basketball shorts and a T-Shirt and his sneakers - his normal outfit since surgery. 

The two of you made your way to his car and went to the physical therapy appointment. Once you were there, they took Colby straight back and you played around on your phone while you waited. Once he was done, you went out for lunch and went back to his house. 

On Wednesday, you got on a flight for Connecticut to go home and get fresh clothes from your apartment (Monica's on Friends)  and go to Florida for a live event. 

You missed Colby like crazy and you were on FaceTime with him a majority of the time before the live event started. When RAW rolled around, you were on FaceTime with him during the entire show. When it was over, you said goodnight and hung up.
