"You're moving in with him?!" Jenna repeated loudly as she narrowly missed me whilst she spat out her coffee. I was sitting in my living room with Jenna having a cup of coffee telling her about all the things that had happened in the past week or so since I had seen her.
We had spoken on the phone quite a bit so I could keep her updated after all that crap with Brock happened but I hadn't had a chance to tell her on the phone that Colby had pretty much invited me to move in with him after I had lost my job. "Yes." I nod my head calmly; my best friend is known her dramatics so I knew we'd be on the subject for a while.
"When, excuse my language for a moment, when the fuck did that happen?" She asked and stood up and quickly walked in to my kitchen to grab a cloth to wipe up the spilt coffee from my leather couch.
"Last night, after RAW." I say casually like it's no big deal. I've been trying to keep calm about the whole thing since it happened. I knew it was a huge deal but I didn't want to freak out about it. I liked the idea of moving to Davenport to live with Colby. I'd be able to see him a lot more and it would mean less travel for the both of us. And with this fifty thousand dollars that I took from Brock for compensation I would be able to keep my head down and study full-time for quite a while. I'd be able to get most of my degree done before my money ran out, plus I already had quite a bit put away for when I turned 25. It was a trust fund that my parents started for me when I was born. There was a substantial amount of money in that which would set me up far better than the fifty thousand dollars from Brock would.
"How the hell did that even come up in the conversation? Did you like going to WWE RAW tonight and being featured on TV… again? Oh by the way will you pack up all your belongings and move three hours away to Davenport, Iowa?!" She squawked dramatically again and then huffed like she was jealous. I had to laugh.
"No he was comforting me because I was upset. Mia put Liv in to day care and she doesn't need me anymore." I explained. "He was saying something along the lines of I could be his babysitter and then pretty much asked me to transfer my uni classes and move in with him. And then he asked me to be his girlfriend." I added on the end because I had unintentionally left it out. I smiled stupidly as her eyes widened.
"Well thanks for telling me eventually!" She scoffed.
"You're welcome." I giggled.
"Well are you happy? You're rich, you're dating Seth Rollins and you're the bestest friend ever because I have Dean Ambrose's phone number and he's coming to visit us tonight after he finishes taping Smackdown and I need your help because I don't know what to wear!" She finishes her sentence as a whine I laugh.
"Oh yes I'm very happy and since I'm the bestest friend in the world, of course I'll help you get ready. When did this happen? Last week you were freaked out because you didn't think he was a one woman man." I say curiously and sip on my coffee.
"Yesterday. We were on the phone for about two hours after RAW finished and I told him that I wanted to see him. So he decided that since the house shows are so close by this week that he and Colby are gonna drop by on the way to the next town tonight.." And this time it's Jenna's turn to grin stupidly at me and I smile at her. She's smitten with him and she hasn't even met him yet. Well, to be fair I was like that with Colby too.
Jenna paced the space between my couch and the coffee table in my living room nervously. We had spent all afternoon at her place going through her clothes trying to find her something to wear and by the end of the night I had managed to convince her that a nice shirt and jeans would be fine. Jon isn't going to care if she's wearing sweats, or a ball gown. "Why aren't they here yet?" Jenna whined as she peaked out the window for the forth time in the past thirty seconds and huffed when they still weren't there.
"Jenna its six o'clock in the evening. They're coming from the airport, the traffic is shit oh they're here!" I say when I see the car pull in the drive way. Jenna stopped in her tracks and looked me in the eye and bit her lip.
"Oh my god, Rubie, he's here! What do I do?" She started to freak out and I had to laugh.
"Well for a start you can relax, I'll open the door. Sit down Jen, you're about to meet Dean Ambrose" I tell here and push her down so she's sat on the couch and I walk over to the door and yank it open right before they knock and smile brightly at them. Jon is standing behind Colby and he looks just as nervous if not more nervous than poor Jenna inside on the couch. "Come in." I smile brightly and reach out and grab Colby's hand and pull him in to the house.
"Hi Jenna!" Colby says loudly and waves stupidly at her. Pretty much any time Jenna has been in the same room as Colby she has attacked him because he's Seth Rollins so when she smiles back nervously at him I know that she's really nervous.
"You just gonna stand there or are you gonna come in Ambrose?" I cock an eyebrow and let go of Colby's hand and walk back to the door and grab his hand and yank him in to my house. "Jon that's Jenna. Jenna this is Jon. You're both welcome and now I'm going to take a nap with my boyfriend." I say and close the front door and grab Colby's arm and drag him to the back of the house ditching my best friend with who might possibly be her future boyfriend.
"That was nasty." Colby laughed as I dragged him in to my room and closed the door. I giggled at him and pushed him on the bed and crawled on next to him.
"You can't tell me you're not sick of hearing Jon whine about Jenna. Because I'm super sick of hearing Jenna whine because she was stupid and missed out on going to WrestleMania." I laughed and curled up beside him on the bed while he kicked off his shoes.
"He's so cute! He's way better looking in person." Jenna was not whining about not having met Jon anymore, she was now gushing about how sweet he was. Which she would have known sooner if she had come to WrestleMania with me.
"I know." I groaned. I had heard the same thing for the last few days and it was currently driving me insane.
"I'm sorry I'll stop talking, I'm just really happy. You are the bestest friend in the entire world, Rubie." She grinned at me and we stepped forward in the line at the bank. I had had a check for fifty thousand dollars in my bag for the past four days and I had almost forgotten about it when I got a text from Colby asking me if I had cashed it yet.
"I know I am." I smirked at her.
"So since you told me the other night about moving in with Colby you haven't actually told me when you're moving." She says as we wait behind an old couple.
"We spoke about it the other night. He wants me to move in ASAP so I gotta figure out what I'm doing with all my stuff." I tell her as I think carefully about what I should do. I want to be with Colby more so the obvious answer is to move in with him. I just need to figure out what I'm going to do with all my stuff.
"Sell it." Jenna snickers and I look at her curiously. "What? I'm assuming that Colby's place is all set up? The only thing you really need to take is yourself and your clothes. Why not sell your furniture and get a little more money along the way?" Jenna grins at me. I had considered putting all my things in to storage or leaving them there for the next tenant in the house but it hadn't even dawned on me that I could sell it all.
Jenna is right, it's not like I'm gonna need all my stuff. I could make a bit of money. "I think you're on to something Jen." I smile at her. "But first I need to talk to Colby. I need to transfer all my uni work as well." I tell her as the old couple in front of us finish their business at the teller and they leave.
I walk up to the teller and smile at him and he smiles back. "I feel like I know you." He says curiously as I slide over the check that I had been fiddling around with while we were standing in line.
"Do you watch wrestling?" Jenna asks loudly. "She's Seth Rollins girlfriend." Jenna adds with a giant grin.
"Jenna!"
"Oh you're right! You were F5'd by Brock Lesnar weren't you?"
"Uh yeah." I mutter. This is way more intimate than I had planned and he was the first person who had recognised me. It would have been fine if Jenna hadn't opened her big mouth.
"Wow that must've been really cool. So what can I help you with?" He asks.
"I just wanna deposit this in to this account please." I tell him and slide over my bank details and my I.D.
The transaction is made quickly after that and then I'm on my way fifty thousand dollars richer than I was a week ago.
The bank teller recognised me from RAW lol
Ha! That's hilarious. Did you sign autographs?
No. It wouldn't have happened if Jenna didn't open her big fat mouth. He said I looked familiar and she just blurted out (rather loudly): She's Seth Rollins girlfriend.
Are you looking for a new best friend? I can be your boyfriend and your best friend: D
How about we swap besties? You can have Jenna and I'll have Dean Ambrose :)
Rude! Am I not good enough?
Definitely not
I miss you!
I miss you too. I'm thinking of selling my furniture so I can move in to yours sooner.
Good!
Call me tonight, I'm about to call the university to see if I can transfer my classes.
Ok babe, good luck 3
I have officially transferred my courses to Iowa and I start in two weeks. I'm more than excited but now I have to spend the next week and a bit selling my whole house and packing up the rest of it to move to Davenport.
"I can't believe you're moving in with Seth Rollins." Jenna said as she sat on the floor piling the clothes that I was keeping in to a cardboard box.
"You can come and visit all the time." I tell her with a giggle. It amuses me that she still refers to him as Seth Rollins pretty much all the time.
"Oh don't you worry about that. I'll be over at least twice a month. And when I move to Las Vegas to live with Jon you'll have to come and visit me and we'll go out on the town like we used to." She giggles.
"Making plans to tie him down already, I see." I giggle in return.
"Sort of. It was his idea first though. Remember when he sent me that text about going to Vegas and eloping?" She laughed loudly and then folded up a pair jeans and shoved them in the box.
"Surprise!" I opened the door expecting to see the lady that was coming to pick up my bedding package but I was surprised to see my lovely boyfriend and his extra large suitcase in his hand.
"Hi." I smiled brightly at Colby and pulled him inside and hugged him tight. "What are you doing here? I thought you had to work tonight?" I ask him and kiss him before he can even respond.
"Talked my way out of it. I'm tired and I wanted to see my girl." He smiled tiredly at me and I smiled softly at him and pulled him in to the house and closed the door behind us.
"Aw you missed me." I coo at him and reach up to pinch his cheeks but he swats me away. "I'm so happy you're here, I just made cookies." I grin at him and lead him in to the kitchen where there are choc chip cookies cooling on a rack.
"Aw baby! Marry me?" He grins and claps his hands together and kisses me softly before taking three cookies and shoving one in his mouth whole.
