Keenan walked backstage, preparing for his steel cage match. Tonight, he was defending his belt against Finn Balor and Sami Zayn, who were his rivals. Keenan was ready to go out there and raise fucking HELL!
As The Ghost walked backstage, he saw Bayley talking to Sasha Banks, Charlotte, and Becky Lynch. Sasha was Keenan's crush, but The Boss didn't know that. Keenan wanted to tell Sasha, but had a match to do.
"Jack!" Keenan stopped walking and turned around to face the four women, who were all staring at him.
"The Four Horsewomen, huh?" Keenan asked, walking back towards the four women. Charlotte smirked.
"That's what they call us." Charlotte replied, placing up four fingers. Keenan snorted, looking at the four.
"Ashley, how didn't Ric get mad at that?" Keenan questioned, crossing his arms. Charlotte smiled briefly.
"Ah, come on. Don't ask me that, Jack." Charlotte pleaded in a joking manner. Charlotte made Kee smile.
"Hey, Matt! It's my fucking ex WHO I cheated ON!" Summer Rae and Tyler Breeze were walking near the 5, holding hands. Tyler had a smirk on his face as he noticed Keenan with the Four Horsewomen nearby.
As Tyler walked up to Keenan and the Four Horsewomen, Sasha tensed. She was going to kick Tyler's ass for this. Bayley placed her hand on Keenan's chest as he walked forward, ready to fight his bitter enemy.
"Jack, don't do this. Please." Bayley pleaded with puppy eyes. Keenan didn't back down from Tyler at all.
"Shut up, Pamela." Summer spoke from behind, making Sasha pissed off. She had to say something now.
"Maybe you should shut up and leave us alone." Sasha spoke with bitterness, making Summer gasp. Kee turned to look at Sasha, who was smiling at him. Keenan winked at Sasha and turned to face Tyler again.
"You hear that, Danielle? Get your ass out of our space. YOU cheated on me and it's over. You got that?"
"Don't talk to her like that, you stupid bastard." Tyler snarled, getting up in Keenan's face. He was silent, but then...he finally snapped. He had enough of Tyler Breeze.
"I'm a bastard? I thought that was you, not me." Keenan shot back, making Tyler lunge forward in anger.
Pushing Bayley out of the way, Tyler's fist met Keenan's face. Taking control, Tyler jumped on Keenan. It only took him 10 seconds to take control and start throwing actual punches at The Ghost, who was hurt.
"Get the FUCK OFF HIM!" Sasha screamed in horror as she watched Tyler beat the SHIT out of Keenan.
"Matt, GET OFF HIM!" Summer screamed, tears streaming down her face. Tyler wasn't listening to HER.
"HEY, WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!" It was Finn Balor and Sami Zayn. Triple H was behind the two men, looking pissed off. Finn and Sami pulled Tyler off, obviously in shock. What the fuck did he do?
"Matt, MY OFFICE! NOW! DANIELLE, YOU COME TOO!" Triple H screamed, making Tyler feel scared.
As the three walked away, Finn and Sami helped Keenan up. His forehead was cut open, but that was all.
"What an asshole," Finn paused, looking at Keenan. "Are you alright, Jack? What's his fuckin' problem?"
"He has a problem with me," Keenan touched his forehead and saw blood, but continued. "He's an ass."
"Damn right he is." Sami agreed, making Keenan smile. Sami patted Keenan's back and gave him a smile.
"I'll see you out there, Jack." Keenan nodded and watched as Sami walked away. Finn snorted and rolled his eyes, looking at Keenan. Finn hugged Keenan and walked away, leaving him with four other WOMEN.
Turning around, he saw the four women staring at him in shock. Sasha was the only one who was crying. Did she care about him or was she playing with his emotions like Summer did for years? She was IN LOVE!
"Are you alright, Jack?" Becky asked, looking at the gash in his forehead. Becky and Keenan were friends, but sometimes, Becky would be a shoulder to cry on. If he had panic attacks, she would always be there.
"Aside from this, I'm fine." Keenan told Becky, who nodded. She hugged him tight, making Keenan smile.
"Get a room, you two." Charlotte joked, making Keenan, Bayley, and Becky burst out laughing. Charlotte was always so happy, even if she had a bad day. Sasha giggled a little, wiping her tears away.
As Becky broke the hug, she looked at Sasha. She was crying, but no one noticed. Becky felt BAD for her.
"Hey, I would stay around, but I need to go find Leah." Bayley spoke up. Bayley and Carmella were in a relationship, but only The Four Horsewomen and Keenan knew. Bayley and Carmella loved each other.
"See you, Pamela. Tell Leah I said hi." Bayley nodded and gave Keenan a big hug. He didn't break it, but a sob did. Everyone turned around and saw Sasha crying, obviously very upset. Did Keenan do this to her?
"Mercedes, are you okay?" Keenan asked, walking towards Sasha. Sasha stood up and looked at Keenan.
"I'm okay." Sasha smiled, wiping away her tears. Sasha knew Keenan was in love with her and would kiss him one day. Right now, she was too afraid to admit her feelings for this man.
The two didn't know it, but Becky, Charlotte, and Bayley had left them alone. Keenan turned around and saw that the three women had disappeared, leaving him alone with Sasha. Keenan wanted to kiss Sasha, but something in his head was telling him not to kiss her. Keenan didn't give a shit about that right now. He wanted Sasha.
"How's your forehead?" Sasha asked, concern coming into her voice. Keenan turned around and saw her beautiful eyes stare into his. Keenan touched his forehead and winced, making Sasha worried. Is HE OKAY?!
"Ah, dammit. Probably shouldn't touch it." Keenan replied, making Sasha calm down. What was wrong? Why was she acting like this? Was she in love in Keenan or was it just hormones? Sasha wanted Keenan.
"Yeah. Doesn't seem like a good idea, Jack. I don't want you to get hurt." She blushed and turned away.
"Are you flirting with me, Mercedes?" Keenan asked, raising an eyebrow. Sasha turned around and saw him smirking, obviously knowing what was about to happen. Sasha was going to kiss Keenan in a minute.
"I don't know, Jack." Sasha's hand touched his face, making Keenan's heart flutter. What was she doing?
"Still a damn tease, huh?" Keenan questioned, getting close to Sasha's face. Sasha backed away and ran.
"Mercedes, wait!" The Ghost called out, but it was too late. Sasha was gone and probably scared of him.
-Sometime Later-
Keenan limped backstage, holding his NXT championship close to his chest. He had retained his title, but had been injured during the match. He was pretty sure it was a concussion, but Keenan prayed it wasn't.
"Mercedes, listen to me. You need to talk to Jack right now, okay?" It was Bayley, who was talking sense into her friend. Instantly, Keenan ran, following the sound of Bayley's voice. He had to find Sasha and talk to her before something bad happened to her. HE had to FIND. THE. ROOM.
Quickly, Keenan found the room. The door was open, so he walked in. Sasha was on the ground, sobbing in Bayley's arms. Bayley looked up and saw Keenan, who looked concerned for Sasha. Bayley got up and walked towards Keenan, who looked angry at himself and maybe Sasha. Did he feel bad?
"Here's your chance, Jack. Kiss her and hold her." Bayley whispered in Keenan's ear. Keenan nodded and watched as Bayley left him alone with Sasha. Keenan knew he had to kiss Sasha and tell her he was here.
"Jack….where are you?! I need you, goddammit!" Sasha sobbed. Keenan walked over to Sasha, feeling a knot in his stomach. For a year, he fell in love with this woman. A year later, he was about to kiss his girl.
"Shhh….I'm here, okay?" Keenan crouched down and wrapped his arms around Sasha's neck. She was his.
Sasha knew Keenan wouldn't leave her alone, even if she wanted him too. Keenan wouldn't leave her alone because he was in love with HER. HE WAS.
"Jack, I'm sorry about earlier," Sasha paused and looked up at Keenan. "I love you, Jack. I want you, ok?"
"Mercedes," Keenan looked into her eyes. "I want you too. I love you." Keenan's lips met Sasha's slowly.
Sasha had been waiting for this moment for a year and would not ruin it. She loved Keenan and he loved her. No one would replace him, even if they tried. Sasha and Keenan were going to stay in love…ALWAYS.
Author's Note: Hey guys! I hope you guys enjoyed the first chapter of my new story! Keenan's real name is Jack Johnson, but I call him Keenan in the story. Sasha will call him his real name, not Keenan. I swear!
A few notes: This chapter is when Sasha and Keenan fell in love. Yes, I know it's kinda confusing, but I am trying to make it understandable in the next chapter, which takes place in 2016. It's 2014 in this chapter.
As for the Four Horsewomen in the story, I decided to put them in here. I know it's 2014 and they are in NXT in this story, but I wanted someone to watch Keenan vs. Tyler Breeze, which was very hard to write.
If you didn't know, Summer Rae, Keenan's ex, cheated on him. She cheated on him with Tyler Breeze. It's an odd pairing, but everyone else seems so innocent in the WWE. I ship Summer x Tyler because they fit.
Anyways, I hope you guys liked my first chapter of this story. If you enjoyed, please leave a review. As a writer, I accept criticism from anyone. If you have an idea for the story or a request, please message me.
Remember to stay a GHOST, just like Keenan.
