Seth Rollins was new to WWE. Previously from the developmental, NXT, he had just been made to be in a storyline with Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose. They would form the shield: an unstoppable force and tag team. Time was ticking till their debut, but everything can change for injustice.
THREE YEARS LATER
Triple H and Randy Orton strutted cockily towards the squared circle, trademark grins on their faces. The Shield stood ready in the ring, fists pumped. After delivering a tiring speech, H finished by saying "There's always a plan B," and Rollins reached for a steel chair. Unaware, Dean and Roman stood tall. Seth swung the chair act Roman, then at Dean. Both lay battered in the ring, confused and hurt. Why had he betrayed them?
Seth POV
I walked backstage sadly, fearing the wrath of my former friends. I wish I didn't end our team, we were indestructible, dominating. I needed to wash away my sorrows, so headed for the one place I could find mercy.
"Hey man, what can I get ya?" A friendly barman bellowed.
"Um, a pint of beer or something," I replied. Beer tastes good, but the finest option is a fruit smoothie with protein. You can't find that in average bars though! I turned to my left and saw a cute girl sitting there, head in her phone, half drank J20 on the counter. I wondered whether to say something, but declined the thought.
"Hi, do you know where the toilets are?"the girl asked me.
"Yeah, they are to the right, see that door?" I responded.
"Oh yeah, I see. Who are you?" she said.
"My name is Seth, I work for WWE. Former member of the shield, actually."
"Really? Mine's AJ, I work there too! I'm from the divas division obviously."
"Woah, that's cool!" After hours of conversation, I said it was time to retreat. So I went to my hotel room and slept, dreaming of that girl all night.
NEXT DAY
I awoke, remembering the events of the last night. AJ Lee. I had to find her today at work. She had brown hair, chocolate eyes and was quite petite. A lovely sight to be honest. About 27, only a year younger than me...Maybe I could make something of it?
LATER
I arrived at the arena ready for Royal Rumble. Many parked cars surrounded mine already, and we still had two hours to get here! I went straight to the divas locker room and knocked loudly. Naomi (or Trinity) opened the door and gave me a questioning look.
"Well hey Seth watcha doin' here?"she asked.
"Can I come in?" I said.
"Yeah sure. Oi, girls, we have a visitor."
Their locker room isn't too different from ours, except there are less people and space. In there was Kaitlyn, Naomi, Cameron, Layla, Paige and AJ.
"Uh, hi girls. I'm looking for AJ. Will you come outside with me?"
AJ jumped up and replied "Yeah, alright." So outside we went. She was even prettier in the daylight. The truth is, I may have had a crush on her.
"AJ?"
"Yup?"
"Will you...um...go out with me?" I anxiously asked.
"Seth...I've only known you for a few days, plus... I'm already dating someone."
"W...w...what?"
"Roman Reigns? Supreme power house, former member of the shield."
"Oh...sorry."
My heart got crushed to pieces inside of me. I felt sick and needed to vomit. Why was she his?
AJ POV
Seth looked really disappointed when he walked off. I never thought such a big guy could care that much. Oh well. I need to go see Roman and to wish him good luck, as he is in the Rumble tonight.
"Hey babe!"
"Oh hi AJ, you look great," Roman said. I blushed.
"Aw, thanks hun. Good luck for tonight by the way! Do you want a good look kiss?" I laughed. It was my little joke. Many times I have kissed someone and they have failed. What can I say? I'm a black widow baby!
"Ow, AJ! I will because I love you, but if I fail..." he began, grinning. He cupped my face in his hands and kissed me.
"Good luck kiss for you too."
LATER
I was in a divas royal rumble, a new event. Fighting for the longest, I was slowly tiring and stalling. Kaitlyn came in and I threw her straight over the top rope. Now it was just me and Nikki Bella. I had to get my hands on that title! She punched me into the turnbuckle and I felt head was spinning as she picked me up and did her boyfriend's move over the top rope. The AA. I was out cold. And Nikki retained her prize.
...
Roman didn't visit the hospital. He hated them to hell. I felt alone, I was alone, in a cold ward waiting to leave or for friends to help me. The door opened, and the first thing I saw was flowers. Magenta and black roses, my favourite! Then the face of Seth Rollins. He came and sat by my bed, then asked:
"Where the heck is everybody?"
"Well, I either have no friends or people that wanted to come here. Kinda sad really."
"I'm here now, so people do care. Where's your boyfriend?"
"Aw, thanks. And I don't know."
"When can you come out?"
"In a moment I'd guess."
I shut up and leant in a little, so did he. Closer and closer. Our lips collided, he held my waist. My hands ran through his two toned hair, enjoying every second of it. I came up for air and was panting hard. He laughed and I smiled. I looked into his eyes and was absorbed. Then the doctor came in and discharged me. Seth took my hand in his and we ran towards his car.
SETH POV
It felt so good, so right to have her sitting next to me in my car. We drove to the hotel and parked round the back. I signed in at the lobby and then we walked to my room, a modernised suite that looked over the city. The bed was large and looked ready to be destroyed. Not once I thought about Roman. AJ jumped on me and we began. We kissed passionately then made our way to the bed, falling on it like feathers. She went on top of me and we kissed some more. Then the best bit came. She came many times, as did I. Defeated, I went to sleep.
...
I have never woken up so cheerful. Seeing a perfect, naked body in front of me is something, knowing who it is is another. What a passionate affair we had last night. To sum it up: I slept Swih my former best friend's girl. Oh, if he finds out, I will be dead. I nudge AJ awake and she looks up at me, smiling.
"That was fun," she whispered.
"You should come round more often!" I suggested, laughing uncontrollably.
...
LATER
I went to the arena for RAW, the next show. On arrival, I was confronted by John Cena.
"Hey dude, you made a racket last night!" he shouted.
"Wait, what?"
"Oi could hear you all night man! Who were you with?"
"...AJ."
"Like, as in ROMAN'S AJ?!"
"Yes, Roman's AJ."
"Seth, she is a screamer, trust me. I had to hide her from Nikki for ages."
"Oh yeah, the storyline that went too far."
"That's the one. Wanna go get a pint later?"
"Sure."
