"I don't know why you're so aggressive towards me lately" I groaned as I sat in makeup with Paige. I had come especially to speak to her and she had ignored me the entire time and was visibly irritated once we were alone.

"Because between you and Finn I honestly fucking feel suffocated right now. I'm not a fucking baby, I can take care of myself"

"Is that why you told Sash to kick you that night when you should have known better? " I blurted out.

"Fuck you, Rollins" she snapped and immediately got up while I sighed.

The last month had been draining because I wasn't sure if I was coming or going when it came to Paige. I was concerned about her which should have been obvious but the more I tried to break down the walls, the more she pushed me away.

I knew she had Finn but he didn't know her the way I did and knowing Paige she would want to protect him from all the harsh hands life had dealt her. So even though I annoyed her, I liked talking to her so I could check up on her while she was figuring out how to adjust to her life with wrestling on the backburner. I knew all the shit I went through when I was on the sidelines, it wasnt easy but she made sure that I hadn't felt forgotten so I wanted to return the favour.

I made my way to the cafeteria and spotted Sasha and was about to join her but realized she was sharing a table with Kevin Owens. I found it odd but I saw Lexi seated alone and decided to join her instead. Things between Sasha and I were tense for a few weeks after the incident, but it was mostly me being a complete ass and taking out my concerns on her. I hated when I got like that and in the past, it was usually my sister that had to deal with my mood swings. But luckily, I had grown up in some sense so I had apologized to her and all was well in our friendship once again.

"Hey, is this seat taken?" I smiled at Alexa who was busy on her phone but glanced up as soon as she heard me and shook her head. "Are you okay?"

"Yes, just abit annoyed by some people in my life but what can you do" She smiled and laughed it off.

"I bet Paige would be naming me as one of the annoying people in her life" I rolled my eyes and she frowned.

"Why?"

"I don't know, Im trying to be there for her but it seems its doing more harm than good because apparently my concern is suffocating her" I shook my head.

"I just want her to be able to wrestle again like that was insane" She sighed and I felt the same way because I wasn't sure what Paige would do if she couldn't. "I think you should just look at things from her perspective. Her thoughts are going crazy with what her future could look like and the more she is trying to just be fine for work, most of the people around her is reminding her of the very thing she is trying not to think about."

I nodded as I definitely knew how that felt and I also knew how it felt to snap at the people you cared about most. I constantly pushed away everyone because I was mad at myself for being injured and on the sidelines but then feel isolated in the end. I didn't want that for Paige, I wanted her to know that she could let her fears fall on me like she used to do. "Yeah you know I was in a similar position, my career felt like it was over because of a mistake made at a live event too."

"Do you think her career is over?" Her eyes widened and I quickly shook my head.

"I really hope not. She loves this business so much, she was made for it. I have known her ever since I got to the WWE so not having her around wouldn't be the same, you know." I sighed and my eye caught Elias in the doorway focused on her before he turned around and left while her back was turned to him.
