Crazed Minds Think Alike

Scars

Dean Ambrose POV

'You can look, but you can't touch
You keep dreaming on the stars above'

I sat at the commentary table and rolled my eyes as Nikki and Brie Bella made their way to the ring. I don't really know why I was down here, maybe just in case Seth gets involved to help Nikki, since they're dating, it only seems fair because Riley helped me last week. I found it ironic, how she broke up with Cena to date Rollins. Brie smiled shyly at me, tucking a piece of her hair behind her ear.

"Looks like Brie Bella has her eye on you there, Dean." JBL laughed.

"What- What is she looking at? Seriously, she's not even pretty." I sighed. I was about to add something else, but I remembered, Raw is PG now.

'We're just a falling star, we're just a broken seed and when an ocean parts, will you wanna sink our dreams'

The crowd was on their feet when Paige walked onto the ramp with a microphone.
"Introducing her opponent, from Scottsdale, Arizona, the best person in the world, the most talented diva in the WWE, the one, the only, Riley!" Paige shouted. That's when Riley ran onto the stage. She did her normal entrance, pausing, lowering her head to show off the word 'famous' on her cap, then high fiving fans.

She slid into the ring and climbed the back left corner, turned to me and blew a kiss.

"Some tension there, between Brie Bella and Riley Bella, it seems they both like you." Cole smiled.

"Well, Michael, if you're a normal guy, you'd go for the 'sweet, girly girl'. But I think we've established that I'm not a normal guy. If you were like me, you'd go for the tomboy, rebel girl. Jus' saying." I smirked.

"You talking about Paige or Riley?"

"Well who am I down here to watch, JBL?" I laughed, making him go quiet.

I watched in the ring as Nikki tried to clothesline Riley. She pushed Nikki back, then grabbed her hair at both sides, pulling her down and kneeing her face. Nikki fell backwards, covering her face. Paige and Brie started a brawl outside of the ring, and of course, Riley beat Nikki down enough to give her time to get involved. Her and Paige hit Brie with a double suplex onto the barricade, then mimicked that twirl they do. The crowd went wild and I had to hold onto my seat to stop myself walking over and kissing Riley. Wait, what?!

Riley POV

I twirled and looked over at Dean. He was smirking as usual. I laughed and slid into the ring where Nikki was just getting up. I tried to throw her into the ropes but she pulled me into her and threw me onto her shoulders. She hit me with a Rack Attack and dropped to her knees. She stood up to cover me, but I rolled her up and got the win.

It was cheap yeah, but I won so I don't care. I was celebrating with Paige when someone pushed me. I looked over to see Dean beating up Seth.

I tried to help and beat Seth, but Paige dragged me out.
"Come on, you can't get involved! Dean's handling it!"

"What?! Just let me help!" I tried fighting out of her grasp, but she held me back.

"Riley, just go!" Dean shouted. I started walking up the ramp, when I noticed Nikki, on the Titantron, running up to me. She was about to hit me with her belt, when I grabbed it and turned it on her. My music died down and Brie screamed at me through a mic.

"Riley, how could you?! She's your sister!"

"She has no problem hurting me! As far as I'm concerned, I'm an only child!" Even Dean and Seth stopped fighting. Everyone was silent. It was so awkward, even Paige was shocked! I didn't know what to do, I dropped the microphone and walked up the ramp.

Paige POV

What Riley said shocked everyone. I followed her up the ramp, calling her name, but she ignored me. Dean followed soon after.

"Paige, where's she gone? Is she okay?" He ran a hand through his hair in panic. When Riley gets that wound up, she goes mad. Literally. Not angry mad, like, crazy mad.

"No, I-I shouted her, but she, she ignored me! I think she's gone out the back exit, you look there I'll look around the arena." He nodded and ran down the hall

"If I find her, I'll text you!" He shouted. I nodded and sat myself down on a crate. I started panicking, and had to take deep breaths to settle down.

I woke up in the divas locker room, to my phone buzzing. How did I get in here...?

From: Dean 'douchebag' Ambrose👙
Found Riley. Her knuckles are bleeding there's been some shit going on. I'll tell her to come find ya when she's calm x

To: Dean 'douchebag' Ambrose👙
Ok, thanks x

Fuck I hope she's okay...

"I'm guessing she's hurt? Huh, she deserves it." I spun my head quickly to see Summer Rae.

"What?! No she doesn't!"

"Yes. She does. She shouldn't be a bitch. It only works if you're pretty." Summer shrugged.

"How would you know about being pretty? You know, Summer, you need to take a long hard look in the mirror before you judge my best friend, because you know what? That girl has been through so much bullshit in her life with her sisters, and she's so strong for getting through it." I noticed the Total Divas cameras filming us, and I knew what Summer was going to bring up.

"Pretty? Strong? What about those scars on her arms? I mean, they're not pretty at all." She laughed. I couldn't help myself, my hand connected with her face, knocking her down to the floor.

"You're right. Those scars on her arms are not pretty. They're beautiful and they're what make her who she is. But I'll tell you something, if you don't shut your fucking mouth right now, I'll give you some scars of your own, and Summer, they won't be beautiful. They'll match your face. They'll be disgusting." I snapped at Summer, who nodded her head frantically. I stepped over her, and made my way out of the locker room.

Of course, Riley's self harm will be all over Total Divas and the Internet, but that isn't my fault. It's Summer's, and at least I stood up for Riley.
