-Caleb's POV-
The show is over now, and I've just gotten out of the shower. Liv comes in before I can finish dressing, so I talk to her while shirtless. It's not a huge deal, I guess, but if we could get the courtesy knock established with the women, I would appreciate it.
"Caleb, I need to talk to you," She sighs, and I feel worry start to seep in. What have I done now? Nothing! I'm a faithful boyfriend!
"What's up?" I ask, taking a drink of water. She looks at me with pity in her eyes, and I feel like I have an idea of where this is going, but that doesn't mean I can't deny it's coming. Not her, too.
"You're gonna want to take a seat, babe."
I do as I'm told, and she sits next to me. She kisses me on the cheek real slow, and the worst has been confirmed. If I'm not careful, the mental breakdown is going to start before anything's even actually happened.
"They want me on Smackdown, Caleb."
"I see."
"I'm sorry, but-"
"It doesn't matter, Liv. Just... just go."
She starts sobbing and leaves the room, and I kind of just sit there. I hear a knock on the door, but I don't say anything. Instead, I throw my bag across the room in rage. Fuck, I think I'm finally broken. I can't believe it took this long. It doesn't matter what I do, it'll never be enough for someone to stay.
Alexa, of all people, slowly opens the door and enters. She advances slowly, able to see just how angry I am. Fuck, I don't think she's ever seen me this angry before.
"Are you okay? I saw Liv running down the hallway crying."
"I'm not okay. I think I'm finally seeing that for the first time."
"Caleb..."
"Don't 'Caleb' me! Why do you care? I though you hated me."
"Caleb, whether or not we're together anymore, I still care about you. Just look at yourself! You're a mess."
"THANKS, LEX! JUST WHAT I NEEDED TO HEAR FROM MY EX!"
Alexa has tears in her eyes now, and I stop dead in my tracks. Why am I taking this out her? She doesn't deserve it. Sure she made a mistake, but I've made tons of those myself. I reach out and hug her lightly, then back off and sit down on one of the benches.
"I'm sorry... but what am I gonna do, Lex?" I ask quietly, my running my hand through my hair. My whole life is falling apart again, or maybe it was never intact in the first place. Maybe Liv just distracted me from it for the past couple of months. And before that, Alexa did.
"I don't know," Alexa says, offering me her hand. I take it, and she finishes, "But I want to help you figure it out."
"You want to give us another try? Fuck it, I'm in," I ask, hugging her again. She looks me in the eyes, and we kiss like we've never kissed before.
