Endlessly ( A Dean Ambrose Story)

Chapter 25: I Love You

 ***Dean's P.O.V***

"Well that was a good workout!" Seth said.
"Yea. I'd have to agree." I agreed.
"So what's the plan for tonight?" Seth asked.
"Annaleigh and I are going on a date tonight."
"Since when?"
"Since now. I want to surprise her."
"That's if you can pry her from Leighla and Galina." Seth said laughing.
"If I have to kidnap her I will!"
Just then a hard knock was on our door. Roman answered it and in came Annaleigh running. She burried her face in my chest. The guys and I exchanged looks.
"Babe? You okay?" I asked rubbing her back. She let out a long sigh and said, "So...much...wedding...planning!" The guys and I couldn't help but laugh.
"It's not funny!" She said joining in.
"You had us worried for a sec." Roman said.
"You guys don't understand! We were all shopping, having fun, and she asks me to be her Maid of Honor... so I said yes. Then she tells me her ideas for wedding themes... okay sure. Then from then on we were buying wedding magazine after wedding magazine! Even a home decorating magazine! We've circled every possible wedding dress. invitation ideas, save-the-dates, honeymoon ideas, wedding decorations... We've even gone as far as making the guest list!"
"Dang! When is the wedding?" I asked.
"June."
"That's a little soon. No wonder she's in crazy planning mode."
"...of next year."
I thought Joe and Colby were going to die of laughter.
"That's what happens with wedding planning sweetheart." Roman said chuckling.
"Oh no! Not for me! My wedding has been planned since I was 6. All I need is a groom." She laid her head back on my chest, "I just need a 3 hour break."
I laughed and said, "Well go get ready. I have a surprise for you." kissing her head.
"That's my Superman." She said smiling.
"Your what?"
"My Superman. I heard this song in one of the boutiques earlier and it made me think of you. And I downloaded it." She pulled out her phone and started playing Waiting for Superman by Daughtry.
***Annaleigh's P.O.V***
I ran to the room and hurried to get ready. If I hear one more wedding detail, I'm going to scream! Dean picked me up not too long after I had finished getting ready. We got into his car and drove away.
"Where are we going?" I asked.
"It's a surprise." He winked.
We pulled in to Le Pave Gourmand.
"Wow! This is really fancy! Are you sure I'm dressed appropriately?" I asked self-conscious.
"Don't worry princess. You look beautiful." Dean said smiling. We got a table and ordered some wine. The wine was amazing! France has so much to offer! The restaurant was beautiful! White table cloths, hand crafted silverware, and chandeliers.
"This place is beautiful Jon!"
"Glad I chose this then."
We ate and talked for a while. I was on my third glass of wine.
"Easy tiger! I want you to remember this night." Jon said laughing. We finished eating and decided to take a stroll on the France streets. The scenery was lovely! The structure of the buildings were marvelous and the streets were lit beautifully.
"You should see this in winter." Dean said noticing I was in awe. "Now that's a site to see!"
"I would love that. Jon, I feel like I'm dreaming! I've always wanted to travel, and now that I am it just seems so surreal!" I said smiling. Dean grabbed my hand as we continued to walk a while longer.
"So... Superman huh?" He asked grinning.
"Yep! Superman."
"Why Superman?"
"Why not Superman?" I laughed
"Why not Batman?"
"Ha! You're more the Joker in that scenario." We both laughed.
"I don't know. I'm not really a Superhero. What if I'm the bad guy?"
"Don't go all Twilight on me." Dean laughed hard at this.
"No worries. Sparkly vampires are not my thing. But Supermans weakness is a rock..." He said with a face.
"True. But he saves people."
"I haven't saved anyone though." He said modestly.
"You saved me." I answered honestly. Dean held my hand and we stopped walking, he looked me dead in the eye with a look I had never seen and asked,
"How did I save you?"
"Let's just say that you came into my life when I no longer believed in love."
"So... you're my Lois Lane?"
"And you're my Superman." I said smiling. He smiled his famous smile and his blue eyes had a glow that I loved. Then his face changed and he became more serious.
***Dean's P.O.V***
Joe had said that when the moment was right, the words would come... and boy were they screaming. I had saved her she said. Never in a million years did I think I could ever do that for anyone. A part of me wanted to know what I had saved her from, but truth be told she was the one who saved me.
"Annaleigh?"
"Yeah?"
This was it. My heart was pounding loudly that I was afraid it would pop out of my chest. I just hoped that what I was about to say wouldn't scare her off.
"I love you." I heard her breath catch and saw her eyes grow wide. I was sure that she was going to make a run for it, but instead a smile grew on her face and she said,
"I love you too Jon." I picked her up and gave her a kiss she could never forget.
*~* RAW *~*
Tonight we were in Orchies, France for Raw. These past few days have been absolutely amazing! Life is at its best right now.
Tyler opened the show against Antonio Cesaro. Cesaro... he was insanely huge! I hoped Tyler would be able to hold his own against him. And to my surprise... he did!
Tonight I had a match against Kaitlyn. I have yet to face her so I'm kind of nervous. My rivalry with Paige and A.J is less than 2 weeks left. Which is kind of sad because I really enjoyed working with those two.
"So Maid of Honor huh?" Jacob asked. We were all in Catering. My match was after Heath Slater.
"Yes." I groaned.
"You don't sound too happy about it." Joe said laughing.
"I am." I said turning to look at Jacob, "I love her and all, but your girl be crazy!" We all had a good laugh. " You should see everything she's picked out or hasn't decided on yet. She's becoming overwhelmed too soon."
"You want me to talk to her and tell her to lay off some?" Jacob asked.
"No. That'll hurt her feelings. I'll be fine. I just don't want her burning herself out before the wedding."
"Speaking of which, when are you and Jon heading to the alter?" Joe teased. His joke almost made me spew my drink everywhere!
"Don't jinx me just yet Joe!"
"Annaleigh, you're up next!" A stage hand called.
"Later guys!"
"Later!"
I made my way to the Gorilla just in time. Kaitlyns music was playing as she entered the ring. My music hit soon after and I made my way to the ring; eyes locked on Kaitlyn. I entered the ring and was stunned at how huge Kaitlyn actually was. I... was about to get my ass handed to me!
The match started and we locked up. I put up a hard fight but she prevailed and put me in a headlock. I kneed the back of her leg, making her land to the mat loosening her grip. I managed to grab the back of her head and slam her to the mat. The crowd began cheering my name, which gave me momentum. I began to climb the rope. As I did, Kaitlyn hit the ropes making me fall. She then grabbed a hold of me and slammed me once again on the mat as a pain shot through my neck. I must have landed wrong. She was about to perform a leg drop but luckily I moved in time! I got up and bounced off the ropes. I was planning on clotheslining her but as I set up for it she countered and performed a Flapjack on me. Compared to everyone else I've faced, she had to have been to toughest one. I staggered up only to be met with a spear. She went in for the pin.
"1...2...3!" Kaitlyn had won and the crowd went wild. I hate losing. I know that I will lose a few but I passionately hate losing!
*~*BARCELONA*~*
Today we are in Barcelona, Spain. Words cannot even begin to describe how beautiful this place is!
"Wow! What do we do first guys?" Joe asked.
"How about we unpack first? Then we'll go from there." Tyler said.
We unloaded our bags and changed into comfortable clothes. We met up everyone else and of course, Dean looked undeniably handsome!
"Hello beautiful." He said kissing my forehead.
"Hello yourself!" I said smiling. He grabbed my hand as we all made our way to explore the town.
We were all talking and having a good time and having fun.
"Hey do you hear that?" Summer asked.
"Hear what?"
"That music."
We stopped and listened and sure enough Summer was right! We followed the music to find a large crowd. We made our way passed the crowd to the front to see dancers. I was mesmerized! The ladies moved so elegantly along with the men.
"They're dancing the Flamenco." One local said.
"It's beautiful!"
"Go join them!" He gestured.
"Oh no! I can't dance like that!"
"Here in Barcelona, it doesn't matter how good of a dancer you are. All that matters is that the music speaks to you; how it touches your soul."
"You heard the man! Go!! What are you waiting for?" Summer urged.
So I did.
***Dean's P.O.V***
"So it looks like you and Annaleigh are getting pretty serious." I heard a voice say. Joe, Colby and I were talking to Big E, CM Punk and Dolph Ziggler. I turned to see Joe, Annaleighs friend was the one who spoke. "Yea we are." I answered. I could tell he wanted to talk to me more about this, "Guys I'll catch up with you later." They left and soon it was just Joe and I.
"I didn't mean to interrupt, I just wanted to talk. We haven't really been introduced nor have we had a single conversation." He started.
He was right. We hadn't.
"I see how she looks at you. She's head over heels. And I see you look at her the same."
"Yea?..." I was beginnig to wonder where this was going.
"I know, I know. This is awkward. I'm just trying to look out for her. I admit that we don't get along a hundred percent of the time, but I DO care about her and I do want what's best for her. I guess what I'm trying to say is don't hurt her. She's a strong girl but she's been through the ringer. This last time we didn't think we'd get her back... but she found this sport and she found you and she's acting like herself again. So as her friend, thank you. You really aren't that bad of a guy."
"Thanks." My curiousity was getting the better of me. I wanted to know what he meant when he said they lost her. "Hey what di-"
"Dude, you didn't tell us Anna can dance!" Seth said interrupting.
"Do what now?"
"Come on!"
I followed Seth and there she was... dancing with the other dancers. You would think that she belonged in that group.
"Dang Jon! Your girl can dance!" Fandango said smiling.
At that moment I had to admit I was beaming proud of her! At that moment I was proud to call her mine. I was proud to call her mine anyway but this doubled it, thinking about whatever her friend Joe meant and seeing how my friends and my co-workers adored her, I realized how truly proud I was to call her mine. She had chosen me. Out of all the guys here she decided she'd give me a chance. Me. I'm beyond lucky.
After the show Joe and Jacob invited the guys and I out for a few drinks. Of course Tyler didn't go because I was going but all in all we had a good time. Annas friends really aren't that bad!
