CHAPTER 35: MICHELLE'S CONFESSION

Later that night on NXT Jacob was sitting backstage in the locker room with his wife becky and their daughter Michelle and after Jacob had got changed into his ring gear before becky said to her husband "it feels great to be back here in NXT again honey as it has been a long time since i was last here" then Jacob said to his wife becky "yeah i know what you mean honey it feels like forever since i was last here in NXT and tonight i will show the NXT universe that i am back and better than ever when i defeat Roderick strong in my first match back"

Then Michelle said to both of her parents "umm mum, dad now that i am 18 i feel like there is something you both should know" and then both Jacob and becky turned to their daughter Michelle and said "what is it sweetie? Whatever it is you can tell us and we won't judge" before Michelle then took a deep breath before she replied "ok, well the thing is mum and dad is that i am in love with someone" then becky sat there with a smile on her face as she replied "well darling it's perfectly normal for a girl yer age to start falling in love" and Jacob smiled as he said to his daughter Michelle "yeah sweetie, your mother is right it is perfectly normal for someone your age to fall in love with someone but is this person you are in love with a male or female?"

Michelle then took another deep breath and her hands were warm and clammy from her nerves trying to get the best of her before she finally said to both her parents "well, i am in love with dad's old manager Christie hemme because ever since she held me as a baby i knew in my heart that she would protect me and keep me safe" and Michelle closed her eyes and expected her parents to say something nasty for her being in love with a woman but when she opened her eyes again she saw both her parents giving her a hug before Jacob smiled at his daughter Michelle and said "your mother and i said we wouldn't judge you and if you truly love Christie hemme then tell her how you feel pumpkin"

And Michelle blushed a little as she replied "t-thanks dad i don't know why i expected you and mum to judge me and i'm sorry for that and after you beat Roderick strong tonight in your return match i will tell Christie hemme exactly how i feel about her and hopefully she will want to be my girlfriend" then becky smiled at her daughter as she said "i'll help ya with this seeing as this ya first time dating someone because i bought a couple bunches of roses so just relax and let ya mother take care of everything" and Michelle smiled as she replied "aww thanks mum, c'mon dad's match is coming up next" before they all then walked to gorilla position to get ready for Jacob's match.

Jacob's music the world is yours by arch enemy started playing and Jacob walked out on stage with his daughter Michelle by his side to a thunderous crowd reaction as the announcer said "the following contest is scheduled for one fall on his way to the ring from London England weighing in at 280 pounds accompanied by Michelle kyoshi cass the king of the heavyweights JACOB CASS!" and Mauro said on commentary while Jacob was making his way to the ring "Nigel do you think Jacob will have any ring rust after being away from the ring for so long?" then Nigel said on commentary "only time will tell if Jacob has any ring rust going into this match against Roderick strong" then beth phoenix said on commentary "Jacob looks like he has kept himself in phenomenal shape whilst being away from the ring but will he be able to beat Roderick strong here tonight in his first match back"

And Jacob jumped onto the apron and helped his daughter Michelle up to the apron before he Jumped over the ropes and posed in the middle of the ring as his daughter Michelle came into the ring and clapped her hands before she walked over to the corner with her dad before making her way down to the floor at ringside while Jacob waited for his opponent then the undisputed era music played as Roderick strong came out on stage to a sea of boos from the crowd with his stable mates as the announcer said "and his opponent from new Orleans Louisiana weighing at 200 pounds the NXT north American champion accompanied by the undisputed era RODERICK STRONG!" and Roderick strong made his way down the ramp with his stable mates and posed in the middle of the ring with his stable mates before he stood across from Jacob and handed the referee his championship who handed it to the time keeper before the referee then checked both men before he called for the bell and the match to start.

Roderick strong walked up to Jacob in the middle of the ring and talked trash to him before he threw a couple of forearms into the chest of Jacob and Jacob stumbled back a little before he dropped Roderick strong with a hard clothesline before he then followed it up with a dropkick and Roderick strong stumbled back to his feet into a corner and Jacob climbed the second rope and started raining down right hand after right hand into the face of Roderick strong as the crowd counted along before Roderick strong collapsed out of the corner on to the mat before some of Roderick's stable mates got involved when they got onto the apron and distracted Jacob before Roderick strong then lifted Jacob up and slammed him down across his knee with a back breaker as Mauro said on commentary "once again the undisputed era getting involved allowing the messiah of the backbreaker Roderick strong to get back into this match"

Halfway through the match Roderick strong tried to hit his finisher the end of heartache on Jacob but Jacob countered mid move into a superman punch knocking Roderick strong down to the mat as Jacob landed on his feet and backed up into the corner setting up for a spear as the crowd came alive with thunderous cheers before adam cole got onto the apron and distracted the referee allowing bobby fish and Kyle o reilly to sweep the legs of Jacob sending him face first into the mat before Roderick strong got back to his feet and picked Jacob up off the mat and delivered his finisher the end of heartache and went for the pin as the referee made the count and Nigel said on commentary "there it is the end of heartache this could be all over" "1.." and Jacob powered out and Roderick strong and the rest of the undisputed era were shocked and Mauro said on commentary "mama mia, Jacob cass just kicked out of the end of heartache at 1"

And the end of the match came when Roderick strong went for a sick kick but as he ran off the ropes Jacob sprang back up to his feet and caught Roderick strong with a super kick stunning him before Jacob then kicked Roderick strong in the leg causing him to drop down to a knee before Jacob ran off the ropes and connected with a running knee to the face sending Roderick strong down to the mat before Jacob then backed up into the corner begging for Roderick strong to get back to his feet before he then charged out of the corner and connected with a spear and fell into the pin as the referee made the count "1.." "2.." "3.." and the bell rang and the match was over and Michelle slid into the ring and knelt down next her dad with a smile on her face as she said to him "dad that was awesome i'm so happy you won in your first match back in WWE" then as Jacob and his daughter were making their way up the ramp William regal stood at the top of the ramp and said with a smile on his face "first of all congratulations Jacob on a incredible win and second of all at NXT takeover Brooklyn adam cole will defend his NXT championship against the winner of next week's number one contender match between Jacob cass and Johnny gargano and tommaso ciampa"

When Jacob and his daughter walked through the curtain backstage they were greeted by Jacob's wife becky as she gave her husband a hug and said "that was an amazing match out there honey i knew ya could win in ye first match back and slap the head off Roderick strong" and Jacob smiled as he tried to catch his breath as he replied "t-thanks honey, Roderick strong wanted to teach me respect but i taught him a hard lesson here tonight and next week i have a really important match as i will be in a number one contenders triple threat match against Johnny gargano and tommaso ciampa and the winner will face adam cole at NXT takeover Brooklyn for the NXT championship" then becky turned to her daughter as she said to her "everything is ready as i left the roses in the locker room so you should go there and wait while me and ya father get Christie hemme" and Michelle smiled at becky and gave her a quick hug as she said "thanks mum, i don't know what i would do without you" before she then made her way to the locker room and picked up one of the bunches of roses and waited nervously as Jacob and becky went to find Christie hemme

Becky then found Christie by catering backstage as she walked over to her with a smile on her face and said "hey Christie me husband just won his first match back in WWE and next week he will be one step closer to realising his dream of being NXT champion when he faces Johnny gargano and tommaso ciampa in triple threat number one contenders match" and Christie gave becky a hug with a smile on her face as she replied "hey becky, that's awesome news and i can't wait to watch Jacob realise his dream of finally holding the NXT championship but where is your daughter Michelle isn't she with you guys?"

Then Jacob came over to Christie with a smile on his face as he said to her "our daughter is here with us Christie, but i think you should go to the locker room and find out" and Christie had a beaming smile on her face as she replied "ok, because there was something i wanted to tell her anyway" before she then ran off towards the locker room while Jacob put his arm around his wife becky with a smile on his face as he said "i hope this works honey" and becky smiled back at her husband and gave him a kiss on his lips as she replied "it will do honey trust me"

A few minutes later Christie hemme opened the door to the locker room and saw Michelle standing there with a bunch of roses in her hands before she said to her "hey Michelle, what are you doing with those roses?" and Michelle looked at Christie and let out a nervous laugh before she replied "well you see the thing is Christie there was something i wanted to ask you and these roses are for you because Christie i'm in love with you and ever since you held me as a baby i knew in my heart you would protect me and keep me safe so i guess the point i'm trying to make here is...will you be my girlfriend?" and Christie closed the door behind her and slowly walked towards Michelle before she took the roses from her and smiled at her before she said "the truth is Michelle there was something i had been meaning to tell you too and that is i'm in love with you too and i have been ever since you were a baby"

Christie then slowly pressed her lips against Michelle's as they shared a kiss before Christie briefly broke the kiss as she said with a smile on her face "and to answer your question...yes i would fucking love to be your girlfriend Michelle kyoshi cass" before the two then went back to sharing a passionate kiss with each other and Michelle slowly wrapped her arms around Christie before they settled on Christie's ass while Jacob and becky just stood in the doorway of the locker room and smiled.
