I stood outside for a few more minutes trying to wrap my head around what just happened. I let out a sad sigh before finally going back inside. I walked into the bathroom and leaned against the sink and let the tears fall. My heart and head were fighting an internal battle and for the first time ever I didn't know who I wanted to win.
I turned and investigated my face in the mirror I cleaned the make up off and try to make myself presentable enough so everyone wouldn't ask a million and one questions.
I heard the door opened and looked into the mirror locking eyes with Trinity and Sasha who both gave me sad looks.
"Shay, What's wrong?" Sasha asked.
"Talk to us" Trinity said.
"Ugh everything" I said closing my eyes and shaking my head "I'm in love with two totally different people for totally different reasons and I don't know how I am supposed to choose without hurting someone" I told them.
Sasha and Trinity both looked at each other before walking over to me.
"Well one is defiantly Colby who is the other?" Sasha asked.
"Elias" Trinity answered for me.
"What?" Sasha asked shocked "since when did that become a thing?" she asked.
"Since last year when he was down at NXT" I told her "We decided to not tell anyone because of how my dad is but Elias seems to think he isn't the reason I don't want anyone to find out" I added.
"Well is he wrong?" Trinity asked. I cut my eyes at her. "Hear me out Shaylee you are a grown woman and yes, I get that your dad has seen and done stuff on the road that ruined a lot of his relationships including with your mom, but he needs to realize that it's a lot different then it was back then. Were bound to end up dating wrestlers that's who we see two hundred plus days a year"
"I feel like ever since you started dating Elias you have been worried about Colby finding out and I don't think it's because you think he be angry I think its because after all these years you still hold out some hope that you two will end up together" Trinity said.
"Look it's obvious that Colby loves you and that you mean the absolute world to him but Shay I feel like if he wanted to be with you he would have step up and said something by now" Sasha said "And maybe he hasn't because he is scared but he is in a fragile state right now so I think the last thing you need to do is try to pursue anything with him" she added.
"So, what should I do?" I asked looking at them.
"Follow your gut and heart on this Shaylee" Trinity said "Considering I am the only one who knew about you and Elias then let me say this. I see the way he looks at you he loves you and I know that you love him too. I think you need to give it a real shot and see if it can be something magical" she told me.
"And if you ended up getting your heart broken then at least you can say you gave it a real shot and that for once Colby didn't influence your decision" Sasha said.
"Yeah maybe yall right, Thank you" I said hugging them.
"No problem, Girl you know the best conversations always happen in the bathroom at the club at two in the morning" Trinity said laughing.
We all three laced arms and walked out of the bathroom but were stopped in our tracks when we seen Leati and Finn holding a very drunk Colby up.
"Shay" Colby yelled smiling at me "Where did you run off too?" he asked looking at me.
"Fish" I said taking a step toward him "Did you get drunk while I was gone?" I asked.
"mmmhmm" he said shaking his head yes with a huge smile.
"You're a mess" I told him "Alright King Slayer lets get out of here"
We all went to the cars climbing in and headed back to the hotel. Once we arrived Jimmy and Leati helped me get him to his hotel room and threw him on his bed.
"Thank you, guys. Ill take it from here" I told them.
"Sorry you have to spend your fist night taking care of his ass" Leati told me.
"Nothing I'm not use too" I told him laughing "but it's okay you two go get some sleep and ill see you in the morning"
"Good Night" Jimmy said walking out followed by Leati.
I locked the door then walked over to the bed I looked down at Colby and sighed to myself. I took his shoes off and threw them to the ground before unbuttoning his pants and pulling them off him along with his shirt. I pulled the blanket over his body and plugged his phone in. I laid two Tylenol on the table next to a glass of water.
"Fish make sure you take those" I said into his ear. Colby turned on his side and looked up at me while running his knuckles down the side of my face.
"Night" I said standing up.
"You always take such good care of me" he told me.
"Someone has too" I told him "Ill see you in the morning" I added and walked over to the couch.
"You're the greatest thing to ever happen to me Shaylee, I love you so much" he told me.
I stopped dead in my tracks and felt a huge lump form in my throat. I turned around slowly and locked eyes with him.
"Your drunk Colby" I said barley above a whisper.
"Yeah but drunk minds speak sober thoughts" he told me.
I stood there until I heard his breathing even out followed by a light snore. I laid on the couch and stared at the celling as my mind went a thousand miles an hour and just like earlier tonight my head and heart were once again at war.
Just when I thought everything was going right and it was all going to work out I get hit with these bombs. Now the real question is who in the hell do I choose?
