Paige was angry. When she's angry she tends to kick things, which explained the pieces of broken mirror around her feet. Seven years of bad luck couldn't possibly be worse than how she felt now, and the amount of alcohol she'd consumed certainly didn't was only thing she could think about – how her own stupidity had cost her the best relationship she'd ever had. Sitting against the wall, she decided then and there that there were five reasons she loved Seth Rollins. Those were also the five reasons she needed him back.

The alcohol convinced her that he needed to know this.

The dangerous combination of sad, angry and drunk forced Paige to pull out her phone, scroll to his name and begin texting.

1. I love you because you hate Valentine's Day as much as I do

Though it seemed a lifetime ago, there was a time before Paige and Seth were a couple. For a while they were content with being just friends. They bonded over so many things – music, wrestling, and their hatred for Valentine's Day.

"I know I'm gonna sound bitter, but this day makes me feel sick." Paige spoke, dodging past a pink heart-shaped balloon.

"Don't girls love all that stuff?" Seth asked with furrowed brows.

"Not this girl."

"You know, I actually agree with you. Valentine's Day categorises everyone – you're either in a relationship or not. No matter which side you're on, you feel pretty anxious about the day."

"You put that much better than I ever could." Though she was speaking to Seth, Paige's eyes were focused on the chocolates on sale. They were so damn tempting. Seth reached over her shoulder and pulled a box off the shelf.

"These can be my anti-Valentine's gift to you." The raven-head put a hand to her chest as if it was the most romantic thing she'd ever heard. As she reached her hand out for them, Seth pulled away. "Only if you share them with me."

"Are you serious, Rollins? Blackmail?" He nodded, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. She couldn't help but smile, he was adorable. "Fine, we can be unhealthy and bitter together."

2 – I love you because you motivate me

Everyone has their off days. Sometimes they're so bad you want to drop everything and give up. For Paige this day came the night she lost her title to AJ. Seth was right there as soon as she made it backstage, but she brushed past him and ignored anyone who event tried to speak to her.

The show had ended when Seth found her sat up against a wall with her knees brought up to her chest. He found himself staring; the mascara running down her face was a dead giveaway that she'd been crying. Within seconds he was by her side with an arm around her.

"That was fucking embarrassing." She sobbed into his chest. "I can't believe I just let that happen." He let her cry for a minute, getting it all out.

"You're shocked because you can do better. You know you'll get the better of her."

"What if I don't?"

"It was a fluke, we all know it. Remember how you feel now, it'll make you even prouder when you win that title back." Paige balled her hands into fists. Nothing was going to stop her, nothing.

As always, Seth was right. When Paige won her title back at Summerslam she was on top of the world. She didn't ignore Seth backstage this time around; instead she threw her arms around him.

"You were right."

"Of course I was."

3 – I love you because you make 11:11 wishes with me

"Some authors claim that seeing 11:11 on a clock is an auspicious sign, whilst others claim that 11:11 signals a spirit presence." Seth laughed at the intensity on Paige's face as she read the article. She glared at him, "There could be a spirit here soon, don't make it angry." Seth looked around, noting the cracks in the walls and the broken toilet seat. He grabbed the remote and tried to turn the little TV on. After a few attempts he set it down again, he wasn't sure why he was expecting it to work.

"If I was a spirit I wouldn't be visiting this shitty hotel room, believe that."

"You sound like Roman, don't do that." Paige giggled at his antics before turning back to her laptop. Seth glanced at the time, 11:09, he'd only have to listen to this for a couple more minutes and hopefully they'd get some sleep. It wasn't that he didn't believe any of it, he was just really tired. "Oh, listen to this! Apparently seeing three or more of the same number has a specific meaning."

"And what, pray tell, is the significance of 11:11?"

"Energy flow of water, money, sex-"

"Interesting." Seth sat up. "Wait, the spirit won't be watching us have sex, will it?" He leaned in for a kiss.

"Shut up!" Paige rolled her eyes, but accepted the kiss anyway. Her alarm went off to signal that it was finally 11:11. They pulled apart at the same time, the alarm startling them. Seth wanted to be annoyed, but found it almost impossible. Instead, a chuckle escaped his lips.

"I can't believe you actually set an alarm."

"Make a wish!"

So he did. He wished because it would keep her happy, but he also wished because something deep inside of him made him believe what she was saying. Maybe it was love, maybe it was hope. Whatever it was, he believed.

"Who is that?" Seth wondered to himself. The last person to text him at this late hour was Paige, and he doubted she wanted to talk to him right now. He was never really sure why she ended things, her "it's not working out" excuse was definitely bullshit.

He picked up his phone to find out that it indeed was Paige who had texted. 'I love you because you hate Valentine's Day as much as I do.' He smirked before frowning, why was she saying this? He sat on his bed and watched as more texts rolled in.

This was going to be interesting.

A/N: Hope you enjoyed it, I'll be putting up the second part soon! Also, this was heavily inspired by 'Drunk Texting' by Chris Brown and Jhene Aiko.
