Liv's pov:

I sit backstage not paying attention to anyone or anything until...her music plays. The crowd cheers as she walks out as I just stare at her full of admiration, you see I've always had a crush on her but I've never understood it. I'm always trying to hide the fact that I'm secretly bi well...i don't know yet, but everytime I look at her, my heart beats so fast and I just want to pull her close and kiss her in front of everyone but I know I have to keep it hidden. I guess I'm just in denial about who I am but it's because I'm so scared of how everyone will react, my family, my friends, the company, I've never been so scared about anything before than I am about this. This girl makes me crazy...who? You're probably wondering. Well of course, the one and only: Sonya Deville aka Daria.

Sonya and I have always been very close behind the scenes, we hang out all the time but of course it comes with a price. Mandy Rose is always with us. I get it, they are tag team partners and best friends but it's so annoying when I just wanna spend time with JUST Sonya and if it's not Mandy, it's Sonya's real life girlfriend: Arianna. Ugh I just wish I was her girlfriend but Sonya would never like a girl like me. Anyway I watch Sonya as she is up against 'the boss' Sasha Banks, the match was just amazing, they both are amazing athletes in the company and put on a good show. Sonya wins, as I always knew she would because of how great she is but my face drops as I watch Mandy climb into the ring and pull her close as they share a quick kiss. I get it, it's just a storyline where Sonya and Mandy are together but I can't help but feel jealous, I don't like seeing anyone close to Sonya like that, I dream of that moment.

I wait for them to come backstage as I run over and hug Sonya tight, congratulating her on the win. We pull back and smile at eachother for a bit longer than usual.

"You did so well out there tonight, you looked amazing aswell"

I keep looking into her eyes as I see her blush slightly as she looks away to try and hide it but I already saw as I then blush myself. I just made THE Sonya Deville blush OMG. The moment is broken as her girlfriend walks over and pulls her close to her, I watch sadly as Sarah walks over and pulls me away. Sarah or Sarah Logan is my fellow member of our tag team "The Riott Squad" which also includes Ruby Riott, but Sarah is the only one who knows about my feelings towards Sonya and she supports me no matter what.

Sarah took me to get some ice-cream as my heart feels broken after seeing them two together, she always knows how to help.

"Livy you need to tell her how you feel because I hate seeing you sad"

Sarah tells me as I look up at her with sad eyes. I shake my head as my heart drops at the thought of Sonya rejecting me.

"I'll be okay Sarah, I know she will just reject me straight away because one she's taken and two she wouldn't like me"

I feel myself start to tear up as my voice is shakey. I get up and walk into the bathroom to try and compose myself. Come on Liv, you're a badass. Don't cry over some girl, it's just a stupid crush. I keep telling myself that over and over again until I'm able to come back out to Sarah. She can tell by my face that I'm not okay but doesn't question it which I appreciate it, I just want to forget about this all for now.

Sonya's pov:

I just finished my match against Sasha and I'm feeling better than ever with the outcome. One win to me! I come backstage and the first person to hug and congratulate me is Liv. I can't help but stare at her after our hug, I've been keeping a secret for the longest time but I have to keep it buried as I'm dating Arianna but...she just doesn't give me the same attention and kindness Liv does..god shut up Sonya, you've been dating Arianna for over a year! You love her, not Liv. Speaking of Arianna, she walks over just at the wrong moment, I was enjoying this moment with Liv but she ruined it by coming over and pulling me away. I glance over at Liv and see Sarah pulling her away aswell...why does Liv look sad? I try and walk over to her but Arianna keeps me close and kisses me. I sigh and pull back as I watch Liv walk away down that hall...I'm filled with sadness but I can't show it.

I push past everyone and walk to the locker room, I should be feeling happy but I can't help it and feel sad without Liv by my side celebrating with me, everything just feels so pointless. Natayla walks in as she notices my frown.

"Need a friend Sonya?"

I nod at her as she sits beside me and wraps an arm around me. Nattie is one of my best friends, she knows everything and she "knows" I feel something for Liv romantically, she claims she can just tell by how I look at her and treat her, although I don't believe her, Liv and I are just friends and that's all I see her as.

"Another Liv problem?"

She asks me and I nod again against her shoulder not able to speak. My heart feels different. She picks my head up and makes me look at her.

"You need a girls trip, how about the girls and us go on a trip to Hawaii? We can liv it up there, haha see what I did there?"

I roll my eyes at her Liv joke, clearly not impressed as she just laughs and nudges me.

"Lighten up girl anyway it will be fun"

"A girls trip sounds fun so let's do it but Nattie, no more Liv jokes or I will kick your ass"

She laughs as we share a quick hug. A girls trip...this will be fun, I wonder who is coming. I guess I will just have to trust Nattie with this one. This is probably gonna be a disaster...

(ANNDDD that's chapter 1 done! Hopefully you guys like it? If not, I'll cry.  Jk jk but I'll try and keep this updated regularly if I don't lose motivation like my old books rip)
