November 4th, 2015 - Dublin, Ireland
"Hey Rave something is wrong with your boyfriend.", Naomi said to The Raven, whom had her back to her.
The Raven was the current Divas Champion, she was talking to Becky Lynch and Charlotte about their match tonight. They were currently in Dublin, Ireland. Seth's match with Kane was presently taking place in the arena, it was a No Holds Barred. She turned to Naomi, who was pointing at the monitor. The Raven immediately ended her conversation with Becky and Charlotte and walked closer to the screen. She could see Seth had just finished power bombing Kane into the table and was now trying to pin Kane, he was babying his right leg.
"What happen?", She asked Naomi with concern, never taking her eyes off the monitor. She could see Seth struggling and limping but determined to finish his match with Kane. The panic in The Raven was held at bay because Seth didn't appear to be in too much pain but more confused by the fact his right limb was not cooperating with him.
"I don't know. He was doing a sunset flip on Kane from the top rope and it look like maybe he land on his feet wrong."
Seth continued to struggled through and somehow managed to get a steel chair, he hit Kane in the midsection and then did his new signature move the Pedigree, slamming Kane's skull into the steel chair. It was obvious the move was difficult for Seth because he was trying not to put his weight on his right knee. Seth then pinned Kane for the three count.
The MC for the night announced Seth as the winner, but Seth wasn't getting up nor celebrating his victory in his normal cocky persona. Instead, he rolled into a fetal position on his right side holding on to his knee bring it closer to his chest. The ref was by his side. The Raven had seen enough and ran out of the viewing room toward the arena.
As she neared the gorilla arena, Kane walked throw the curtain from the arena and blocked her before she could make her way to Seth. She tried to walk around him but he put his big meaty hand on her shoulder and held her in place.
The Raven looked up at Kane with anger in her hazel eyes as she tried to knock his hand off her shoulder and get past the big giant. "Kane, he's hurt. I need to go to him. Let me go god damnit!", she yelled, looking at the curtain wondering why Seth had not yet come.
Kane's response was to shake her, making her look up at him again. "He is the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Raven. Let him have his dignity and let him come back here on his own terms."
The Raven could not find her voice, she was too choked up with emotions. The only thought that ran through her mind was that Seth was hurt. She knew Kane was right. Seth had a lot of pride and having an hysterical girlfriend run out to him would only embarrass him. Plus, she had to be strong for Seth. Her big watery eyes looking up at Kane, she nodded her head in agreement. He released her and she walked up to the curtain and pulled it back just enough to see how Seth was progressing.
Seth was sitting on the edge of the ring. Evan and Thomas, the trainers, were talking to him and then helped Seth off the ring and backstage. Evan was supporting a majority of Seth's weight.
The Raven could feel Kane behind her. "It's bad, isn't Kane?", The Raven whispered as she watched Seth limp backstage with most of his weight being supported by the trainer, so he wouldn't put too much pressure on his right leg. She needed to know, so she could best figure out how to help Seth but at the same time she didn't want to know. She was scared for Seth and what it meant to his career. A career that define the person he was, a career he had fought and sacrificed so much for.
Kane had been in the business long enough to know when an injury was serious or not and from the difficulty Seth was displaying, he knew Seth had hurt himself badly, even possibly career ending. "Yes.", he replied solemnly.
The Raven felt her heart stop for a moment at Kane's confirmation of her own fears. She then backed away from the entrance as Seth made his way through the curtains.
Seth paused and looked to see The Raven staring at him. She was biting her bottom lip and fidgeting with her hands, which meant she was nerves. Seth was relieved to see her and needed her, wanted her close to him. He reached his left hand out to her and she immediately went to him and wrapped her arms around his waist to help support his weight. His arm going around her shoulders, as they continued to make their way to the trainer's room.
As they walked, The Raven's eyes fell to his injured leg. "Does it hurt?", she asked softly.
"Some but mainly my knee feels weird like it is dislocated or something.", Seth replied with a haggard voice as he looked down at her.
The Raven felt a bit relieved. Maybe the injury wasn't as bad as they thought. They finally made it to the trainer's room. Seth was helped onto an exam table by Evan and Thomas. There were some assistants in the room. Hunter had also made it to the trainer's room and stood off to the side waiting to hear the extent of Seth's injury. The Raven was on the opposite side of the table holding Seth's hand, while the trainers were on the other side and immediately began to exam Seth's leg. Seth hissed and groaned in pain at some of the spots Evan was touching. At the same time the trainer was asking Seth questions.
The trainers were interrupted by a stagehand that walked in and announced, "The Raven, your match is up in 10 minutes. You need to go to the gorilla area." After making his announcement the stagehand quickly exited the room. Seth turned to The Raven. "You should go."
"You're hurt, I don't want to leave you.", The Raven said gently. It was like deja vu except this time it was Seth that was hurt. Something that did not go unnoticed by Seth as he used the same argument, she has used on him 14 months ago. "There is nothing you can do for me, you will only be in the way of the trainers as they help me." Seth smiled and pecked The Raven on the lips. "Go,", he nudged her gently with his arm. "You are part of the main event something we wait our entire careers for."
"Are you using my own words against me?", The Raven tried to sound offend but couldn't hide the smile that graced her lips.
"Of course, that's what boyfriends do.", Seth playfully said back.
It only made The Raven want to cry that Seth was more concerned about her than himself. She also knew this was his defense mechanism, he didn't want to think of his own injury. She cupped his face between her hands and brought their foreheads together with his hands on her waist. "I love you Seth."
It made Seth smile to hear her say those words because14 months ago for her to say those words were near to impossible. "I love you too sweetheart."
The Raven then tenderly kissed Seth on the lips. He returned her kiss with force, his tongue finding its way into her mouth, his arm wrapping around her waist bring her closer to him, his hand threading its way through her hair deepening the kiss, causing her to gently moan. Seth wanted to reassure her that he was fine. He did not want her to be distracted but focused on her match. He did not want her to get hurt.
Everyone in the room stood silent as they stared at the couple who seemed to be in their own world, they could not tear their eyes from the couple's intimate moment. It was obvious to everyone in the room the love they had for each other.
It was Seth, who ended the kiss. "You need to go Raven."
The Raven again briefly lost her ability to speak, she simply nodded her head as she turned to leave. Once at the door, she turned one more time to Seth. "As soon as I am done, I will be right back."
"I'll be here waiting.", Seth reply with a grin. It was what she had said to him 14 months ago.
Again he was using her own words against her, she smiled at him one more time before turning to finally make her way to the gorilla area.
Seth could see the worried expression on Evan's face, as he touched and looked at Seth's injured knee. Seth wanted to stay positive. He did not want to believe the injury was that serious. He did not feel much pain and the only real problem was he felt his knee was unstable that his leg was going to buckle under him.
"Do you feel any pain when I touch you here?", Evan asked, touching the top of Seth's knee cap.
"No"
Evan turned to Hunter, who was in the corner of the room. Hunter approached he did not like the look on Evan's face.
Seth was getting nervous with the stillness in the room and the silent communication that seemed to be passing from Evan to Hunter. "What is it Evan?", Seth asked anxiously, bring Evan's attention back to the Champion.
"Seth I don't want to jump to conclusions. The best thing would be to get you to the hospital, so we can do proper x-rays and even an MRI. Until we know exactly what we are dealing with there is no point in diagnosing you and giving you wrong information.", Even replied.
Seth did not like his response, he felt an uneasiness in the pit of his stomach. He could feel himself starting to panic. What if this was the end of his career? What if he had to vacate his title reign? Seth took a deep breathe to still his troubled thoughts. Until he knew what was wrong there was no point in thinking the worse. Seth shook his head in agreement.
Hunter and Evan helped Seth off the exam table and to the ambulance.
The Raven's match with Charlotte was finally over. She won the match retaining her title but all that mattered to her was Seth. Once she was done she immediately rushed backstage and went to her locker room, which she shared with Seth. It felt empty and silent without him. She hurried and stripped and took a shower. She did not want to go to Seth all smelly and sweaty.
When she was finally done she immediately packed her things in her duffle bag. She turned and walked over to the open locker where Seth had hung his clothes. The clothes Seth had put to one side, the ones he had intended to wear when he was done with his match. She reached for his t-shirt it black and it had the logo one of his favorite bands. She felt a lump in her throat, as she brought the shirt close to her nose and inhaled his scent, hoping that he will be alright.
She then quickly packed the rest of his belonging in his duffle bag. She turned to grab her bag and title belt, when she noticed Seth's Championship Belt resting at the edge of the bench. Someone must have come to drop it off when she was in the shower. She walked over to it and gently traced over the two diamond crest W's and then Seth's logo on the side. Tears fell freely from her eyes and roll down her cheeks. Seth was hurt or he would have it with him. The Raven wiped her tears off her cheeks and berated herself for her weakness. He would be alright, she reassured herself as she grabbed his belt and walked to the trainer's room.
When The Raven finally reached the trainer's room only Evan was there.
"What hospital was Seth sent to?"
"St. James.", Evan replied. Before The Raven could leave Evan called out to her. "Raven wait."
"What is it Evan? Can't this wait? I really want to be with Seth.", The Raven said impatiently.
"No Raven it can't wait."
The Raven was taken aback by his serious tone. "What is it? Did something happened to Seth?" The Raven could feel her heart lurching in her chest and her stomach swirling with apprehension.
"Its not about Seth. Its about you."
The Raven's expression immediately went from one of worry to confusion as her brows furrow together. "What do you mean, me?"
"Raven before we left the States, we did a random drug test on everyone.", Evan said uncomfortably. "Well I only just received the results and everyone passed with flying colors but your results came back with an abnormality."
The Raven was shocked. "Abnormality? Evan I don't do drugs. Something is obviously wrong with your test.", she said heatedly.
"I did not say you did drugs but the test don't lie." Evan could see The Raven was about to argue and held his hand up stopping her. "Come let me show you what was found."
