-Caleb's P.O.V.-

I get back to my room at around 2 in the morning, and I flop into bed. I don't even bother changing out of my clothes or anything.

However, as I'm finally falling asleep...

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK.

"Of course," I groan, dragging my feet all the way to the door. I open it and... what?

"I'm sorry, I just really needed to talk to you, lad..." Finn bursts into the room and paces back and forth, rambling off so much that I can't understand him. His accent makes it hard enough to understand half of what he's saying, and not to mention he's kind of detached from the english language.

"Finn. Finn! FINN, SHUT THE HELL UP!" I yell after shutting the door. He stops talking but continues pacing. "Okay, say what you've got to say."

"Sasha... Bayley... bloody 'ell, I don' know anymore..." Finn sits down at the desk with his head in his hands, and I just stand there. Like, he's going full irish so I know he's upset, but what am I supposed to do? Finn still hasn't spoken a full sentence!

"Finn. Tell me what happened," I say firmly, placing my hand on his shoulder. He begins to speak, but his head doesn't leave his hands.

"So I get back to my room and find Bayley waiting there for me. We've gone on a date or two, ya know... but then she asks me to go get a few sodas. I see she's getting in the shower, and she asked nicely, so yea, I go. I grab some snacks while I'm at the vending machines, too, just so I don't have to go down for breakfast tomorrow."

He goes silent, apparently remembering the next part. I keep quiet, despite learning of him and Bayley. I guess she did do what she said she'd do.

"So yeah, I'm going up back to my room, I'm on the top floor. Sasha gets in the elevator around halfway up, says nothing. I don't say anything to her but a quick hello. She follows me on the way to my room, but I don't think anything of it. Figured her room was just past mine or something, and she was visiting someone on the third floor. Nah. I open the door, and she kisses me on the lips with Bayley standing right there. Then she goes, 'Oh, you didn't tell her about us?' and just walks off back towards the elevator! Bayley just sighs and asks me to leave. I try to say something, but she starts crying and asks me to leave again. At that point, it wasn't worth it. I took my stuff and got a new room."

Finn looks up, tears in his eyes, and sighs. He doesn't deserve this. Bayley doesn't deserve this. What in the fuck did either of them do to warrant whatever Sasha is up to? However, if I know Sasha, this isn't over, and they aren't the endgame. Someone is going to get fucked up.

"Alright, how about you head back to your room, Finn? Money in the Bank in a few days, focus on that. Bayley's got a match and you have to get her ready. Get some rest, and I'll sort this whole mess out."

"Caleb, I can't ask-"

"Good thing you didn't ask, isn't it? Go to bed, Finn."

He leaves, and I map out the rest of my night, starting with Bayley. She's gonna be irate, so I have to be quick and efficient with what I say to her.
