A New Paige

Not Over It

January 15: Seth Rollins

I watch from a distance as Jon and Saraya laugh. Saraya leans her head on his shoulder as he wraps an arm around her waist. They lean in for a kiss when I decide to turn around, only to bump into Roman.

"You alright?"

"No." I glance over my shoulder. Saraya looks this way, our eyes lock before Dean pulls her attention away. I bow my head and follow Roman towards the gorilla.

"Well, you, Kane and Paul have a match against Dean, Bryan and I."

"Does Paige have a match tonight?"

"No, but shes accompanying Nattie to the ring. And Stephanie wants you at commentary when she goes out."

"Alright."

"Hey man, you sure you gonna be ok?" I give a slight shake of my head until my music comes on. I walk out and join commentary.

"Well, Seth, it's a surprise to see you out here. This is a Divas match."
"If you dont recall, Byron, Paige was one of the members of the SHIELD that I decimated. Do you remember that head--" I stop as Natalya's music comes on and her and Paige walk down the ramp. Paige sends me a glare as she turns her back to me.
"I remember the head injury quite well actually. It was at the same time that you curbstomped her fiancees face into a pile of cinder bricks." I laugh just as Paige lands a hard smack to Nikki while the ref was distracted. Natalya goes for the Sharpshooter and Nikki taps.
Paige looks back at me just as she enters the ring and raises Natalya's hand in the air. She looks back at me, blows me a kiss with a smirk and exits the ring.
"It was nice talking to you three. I will see you very soon." I get up and walk backstage.

I feel a hand on my shoulder and I turn around to see AJ's longtime friend, Kaitlyn.

"Nice hair."

"Thanks, I think yours used to be the same way." She laughs and nods.

"Yeah, it used to be but now its just this."

"It looks good." she smiles.

"Thank you. Have you seen AJ around?"

"No, I havent. I think she might be with Phil though."

"Damn. Oh well, I'll see you around. We should hangout sometime."

"Absolutely." She waves goodbye and walks off. I turn around, coming face to face with Paige.

"Why were you ringside?"

"Stephanie told me I should." She huffs and turns around, "if you dont want me to be around you anymore Paige, tell me. Im a grown man, Im not gonna fuss about it. Dammit, Ill do whatever you want." She turns around and looks at me.

"What?"

"If you dont want to be my friend, if you dont want me to be ringsixe for your matches, if you dont want me near you, then tell Stephanie. But act a little more professional."

"I never said I didnt want you ringside, I just asked why you were."

"I cant do this anymore, Paige. I cant be your friend anymore."

"Why do you do this to me, Colby? Youre in my life and then all of a sudden you leave. Why cant you just make up your bloody mind?"

"Im trying to save you from getting hurt in the future. If you knew the real me, youd realize it would be safer for you."

"Fine, leave. I dont care." she snarls before turning and walking away. I was left there to realize that Im an idiot.
