Smiling a thanks to the stranger who held the door open for me, I walked into the salon, my gaze immediately landing on Mercedes. She was already sitting in the salon chair, an empty one right next to her.
"Appointment for Indigo." I smiled towards the receptionist.
"Right this way," she motioned towards the empty station next to Mercedes, handing me off to my stylist.
"Root touch up?" The stylist ask as I sat down.
"Yes please," I nodded eagerly before turning my attention to Mercedes. "Have you been waiting long?"
She shook her head. "Just sat down."
We continued to mingle for a bit while ignoring our stylists. I filled her in on what I had been up to the past few days. While Colby was gone most of those two days, I had stayed at the hotel room, lounging around. I couldn't spend any extra money, needing it for today. Colby would come back late, giving us a few hours to fool around or watch movies; mostly fool around.
"Any plans for the rest of the day?" Mercedes asked.
I gave her a small shrug of the shoulders. "Not sure. Colby mentioned maybe getting dinner. It all depends on his schedule."
My phone buzzed in my hands and quickly opening up the notification, I noticed that I had been tagged on twitter in a video. Curiosity got the best of me as I realized it was a video of Colby at what looked like was an interview. He was dressed in a black suit with his typical snap back, meaning it was from this morning.
"Have you seen this?" I turned my phone towards Mercedes.
She shook her head the best she could with the foil's in her hair. "What is it?"
"No idea." I muttered, hitting play.
"So Seth, how's life been?" The interview smiled her perfect white teeth towards her guest.
Colby gave her a small nod. "Good. Busy, real busy."
"Wrestlemania is coming up on Sunday. You have a big match against Finn Balor. Any nerves going into Sunday?"
"Of course I'm nervous. It's the biggest pay per view of the year. The grandest stage of them all. But it's nothing that the man can't handle."
I couldn't help but smirk at Colby's cockiness.
"It must help that you have someone special here to support you." The interview smiled while a picture of Colby and I appeared on the television screen. It was a picture of us that looked like a fan had quickly snapped from the other day when we were leaving the diner. Colby held me in his arms, while I looked up at him, smile clear on our faces. Then other picture appeared on screen, we were in the same position but our lips were pressed against each others.
My heart fluttered when I saw those two pictures. Colby looked at the screen fondly before nodding towards the interviewer. "Reign's great. She's so supportive of my career."
"How long have you two known each other?" The interviewers eyes lit up, excited to bring up a juicy topic.
"Few years. She's actually my neighbor," A small laugh left Colby's lips.
"Well she certainly is the girl next door," The girl couldn't help but giggle when yet another picture had appeared on screen.
"Jesus, did they stalk my Instagram for this picture?" I said a little to bitter while pausing the video. I had posted this picture while I was in North Carolina.
"That's what happens when you're famous. People stalk your life." Mercedes commented.
"I'm not famous." I defended.
"Hon, you're dating Colby. You're famous." Mercedes gave me a small smile.
With a sigh leaving my lips, I hit play.
Colby's face broke out in a huge grin as he marveled at the picture. I couldn't help but notice a small sparkle come to his eyes the longer he stared at the picture.
"Well you've seen it here first ladies. Seth Rollins is officially off the market and in love," The lady smiled, ending the interview and the clip.
In love.
Colby's in love with me?
There's no way.
Yes, he was staring lovingly at the picture of us but that was just because he has strong feelings for me.
Yes, he thought I was the one but that's just because we went through so much in our relationship; he thought we could make it through anything.
Right?
I was pulled from my thoughts by my stylist gently tapping on my shoulder, letting me know it was time to rinse my hair.
...
"Thanks for going with me," I gave one last smile and wave towards Mercedes before slipping inside my hotel room.
Expecting to be met with quiet, I was surprised to see Colby lounging in bed, a soft snore leaving his lips. Looking at the clock on my phone, I noticed it was only a quarter past four meaning he had returned earlier that I thought.
Deciding on letting him sleep, I quickly changed into a pair of sweat pants, opting to leave on my old band tee, and sat on the other side of the bed. Colby must have felt the bed dip in weight because his arm was around me, pulling me into his chest.
"I missed you," he breathed.
I cuddled closer to him, pulling the sheets closer to my body. "I missed you too."
"Did you have fun?" His voice sounded dry and raspy.
"Yeah, I'm tired though." A soft yawn left my lips.
"Let's take a nap then head to dinner. Sound good?"
"Sounds perfect," I smiled, pressing my face into Colby's bare chest.
