Stay With Me (Roman Reigns)

35.

Monday was amazing. I got to return to the ring after my two week....... Would you call it a vacation? I don't know. Maybe? No? I mean, I don't think it was a vacation. It didn't really feel like a vacation. From work, yes. But usually on a vacation you don't have to deal with the crap that I did. Or feel the stress or frustration. You also don't get emotionally hurt on a vacation.

Anyway, I got to get back to what I love to do every week and it felt so refreshing. And I was getting back into the title picture. So it was really cool. It felt good to be back. And it was amazing to be back with my man and my friends. This was where I felt safest. With the people who loved and accepted me for who I was outside the family. And I loved them.

Today, Roman and I were just hanging around in the hotel room together. He was pretty tired and I couldn't blame him. I mean, our schedules were pretty hectic and required a lot from us. Of course our bodies were gonna wear down and get tired. We needed to rest sometimes. So that's what we were doing today. Although, Roman had been on his phone a lot. I was starting to get a little frustrated with it. I mean, we'd wanted to watch movies when we got up and we put one on but instead of paying attention to it, he was on his phone. And then during our lunch, he was on it again. I had been growing very irritated with him all day.

Now we were getting ready to go out for dinner. I'd taken a shower a little bit ago and gotten dressed. I was, now, putting my earrings and other jewelry on while Roman was in the shower. His phone buzzed on the desk beside me and I looked at the bathroom door before picking it up and looking at it. There was a text. It was from some girl named Chelsea. Thank you so much! I really enjoyed our time together. And then a wink face. I felt like my stomach just dropped out of me. Who the hell is this Chelsea and what time did she spend with my boyfriend? I started looking through the past messages between the two of them and there were dozens. One of her saying she didn't think she looked good when she saw him and his reply telling her that she was beautiful. And then she told him that he smelled nice. She also thanked him for a shirt he let her have. What? Was I being punked or was this really happening right now?

I felt a tear roll down my cheek as the bathroom door opened. I turned around to face him with his phone in my hand. "Hey. What's up?" he asked.

"You told me I had nothing to worry about. You said you couldn't do better than me." I said.

"What?" he asked confused.

"You told me that I was the one for you. That you weren't going anywhere." I cried. "How could you do this to me?"

"Baby, what are you talking about?" he asked. "Why do you have my phone?"

"It went off so I picked it up to check it." I said. "There's a message there. From your girlfriend. You know, the one you spent time with besides me."

"There is nobody else." he said.

"Don't lie to me." I yelled as I threw his phone at him. "It's right there. In black and white. So don't you dare try to make it seem like I'm over reacting. There is nothing okay with this Roman. There is nothing innocent about cheating." I walked over and grabbed my bag before slinging it over my shoulder. "I can't believe I trusted you. I must look like the biggest fool on the planet."

"You're not." he said. "This is not what it seems."

"Yeah?" I asked. "How many times has that line been rolled out? Don't even try to patronize me. You're caught and you know it. You can't talk your way out of this." I walked over to the door and grabbed the handle before looking back at him. "It's over. We're done." I said before walking out of the room. I couldn't believe this. Roman told me just a few weeks ago that I was the girl for him and that he would never cheat on me. He promised me that he wasn't going anywhere. And now in just that short of time, he proved that all of those words that came out of his mouth were nothing but a lie.
