I slowly opened my eyes, blinking and turning my head from the harsh, bright lights that were in my face. "Ashley, you're awake!" I looked over and saw Naomi smiling at me. "Everyone was so scared and worried," she said as I tried to sit up, a pain in my leg causing me to stop moving. I looked down and saw the brace on my knee. I immediately hit the button, calling for a doctor. "This can't be happening," I sighed, looking at the brace. "What's wrong," Naomi asked and I quickly closed my mouth. "Hello, Ms. Ashley. I'm Dr. Foreman. I was the doctor to examine you," he explained then held up a x-ray of my leg and head, "good news is that you don't have a concussion, but your right leg hit the steel steps pretty hard. I'm actually surprised that you didn't break anything, but you came close to breaking it if you had landed differently. You will be out of commission for at least eight months, maybe less depending on how well you heal." Everything froze around me and I felt my world crumble. "No. I can't be out that long. I'm going to miss Extreme Rules, Hell in a cell, and possibly the royal rumble. We were having the first ever all women's pay per view," I said, tears in my eyes. Naomi hugged me as the doctor apologized and told me to be careful, but his voice faded away while he talked. I didn't even notice that he left until Naomi kept calling my name. "Hey. Your phone has been ringing nonstop. You might want to answer it," she said. I looked at the screen and saw that it was a video call from Changkyun. "Thank you for being here for me. You're my best friend ever. I need some alone time. You can head back to the hotel. I'll be okay," I said as she gave me a hug before leaving. I picked up my phone and accepted the video call. "Hey, Kyunnie," I said, trying to sound like my usual cheerful self, but my eyes betrayed me. "Hey, baby. Finally, you answered," Changkyun sighed as the others showed up on screen, "we saw the video. Are you okay? You were trending online." I showed the brace on my leg before looking at them. "That's pretty much how my night is going," I joked with a sad smile on my face. "How long will you have to have that on," Jooheon asked. It was like a dam had burst and tears ran down my face as I started crying. "I'm out for the rest of the year! This was supposed to be my year. I had so many goals and dreams of being women's champion and now it's all gone," I cried, hiding my face, "I won't be able to wrestle until 2018 and I'm sure that everyone will forget about me. All of my hard work wasted." I felt the crushing depression hit me all at once as tears poured. "Hey hey, baby. It's okay. No one will forget about you. You have a lot of fans who will miss you and will always think about you," Changkyun said, trying to calm me down. "I just feel like I let everyone down," I mumbled, wiping off the tears. "You didn't fail anyone. Like you told us, injuries happen in your career, right," Wonho asked and I nodded. "Well, that just means that you can come here early," Jooheon said, "plus, you probably shouldn't be alone with a bad leg, right?" I sighed as I swung my legs off the bed and got up, stumbling slightly and picked up my phone. "I usually just become a hermit and stay home until I'm better," I said as I grabbed my bags and called for the doctor. "What are you doing," Changkyun asked. "I'm leaving. I want to go to the hotel, get my things and catch a late flight back home," I explained as I sat down in a chair. "Are you sure that that's a good idea," Kihyun asked and I nodded. "Yeah. The sooner I get home the better. I still have time to catch a flight." The doctor walked in and handed over the discharge papers. "I was already warned that you wouldn't stay here. Just rest up and don't push yourself. Also, your friend had brought your bags. They're at the nurse's station," he said before leaving. "Well, that's one less thing for me to do," I said, standing up and walked out, setting up a ride to the airport. "At least you're going home. We're so glad that you're okay. We were scared when we saw the video," Changkyun said. "Yeah. Changkyun was near tears when he saw it and when you didn't answer," Minhyuk said, exposing Changkyun. "Don't worry, Kyunnie. I'm a tough girl. One little fall won't keep me down," I giggled. "I know that. It was just scary, okay," he said, almost pouting, but I could tell that he was relieved. "Thank you all for checking on me. I really appreciate it," I said as I gathered my bags and walked outside, "I'm sorry for scaring you. I didn't mean to make you worry so much." "That's what family is for," Wonho said as my ride pulled up. "We'll always have your back," Jooheon said as the driver put my bags in the trunk as I got into the backseat. "Thanks, guys. I'm headed to the airport now so I can catch this late flight to Ohio. I'll be back home in the morning which will be night for you guys. I'll let you know when I land," I said as the driver got into the driver seat and drove out of the parking lot, driving to the airport. "Okay, Ashley. Just let us know," Shownu said as everyone waved, Changkyun winking as he blew a kiss. "I will. I love you guys. Bye," I said, hanging up as I looked up at the night sky. I was ready to leave this town and return home. I was mostly ready to just get on the private plane and head to Korea so I could be with Changkyun and the guys. Although I was going to be out of action for a while, I was glad that it happened because now I could leave sooner than originally planned. I arrived at the airport and grabbed my things before heading inside and bought a ticket before sitting down near a window. I pulled out my phone and sent a text to Changkyun, letting him know that I made it to the airport. I kept looking down at the brace on my knee and could feel the pain just from looking at it. My phone buzzing pulled me from my thoughts as I checked it, smiling at the screen when I see his name. "I'm glad, baby. Make sure to rest on your flight back home. We're all excited to see you sooner than later. We're going to have fun," he has typed in our chat. "Yeah. I'm excited too. It just sucks that I'm going to be limping on our date. I pretty much ruined it. I'm going to look horrible in a dress with a brace on," I replied as my flight was called and I slowly started walking to the line of people who were taking the same flight. My phone buzzed again while I waited. "It's not ruined. We will still have fun and you will always look beautiful no matter what so keep everything packed and bring extra clothes. We want you to stay a little bit longer so you can get better," he replied. "I don't want to be a burden. I'll help out around there as much as possible. I hope at least one of you will meet me at the airport when I get there," I replied with laughing emojis. I boarded the plane and sighed as I got comfortable as my phone buzzed. "We don't expect you to do anything, except focus on getting better. Hyungwon and I will come pick you up. I'll be waiting for you with open arms," he replied with heart emojis. "Good. I can't wait. I'm on my plane and will be taking off soon. I'm going to try to sleep. I'll text you when I'm back home," I replied as I got comfortable and turned on some music as my phone buzzed. "Get plenty of sleep, princess. Good night," he replied as I sent him a bunch of hearts and kisses before falling asleep. I woke up hours later as the sunlight hit my eyes as I looked out of the window to see that we were about to land. I stretched as the wheels safely touched the ground as the pilot announced that we had finally landed. People around me started getting up and crowd the aisle as they started exiting the plane. I carefully got up and made my way to the exit, gingerly walking down the steps and walked inside to baggage claim. I turned on my phone and called a cab before texting the group, letting them know that I had made it safely and that I was headed home. I grabbed my bags and walked outside to the front where the cab was waiting and put my bags in before getting in and was driven home. I looked around the city that I called home and sighed, finally feeling at ease that I was going home after being away for so long. I couldn't wait to finally sleep in my own bed and without having an alarm set to wake me up. My phone buzzed and I looked at the messages to see everyone saying that they're glad that I'm back home safe. The driver pulled into my long driveway and parked and I got out, the driver grabbing my bags for me and walked me to my door where a bunch of packages were sitting. I raised an eyebrow as I unlocked my door and the driver put my bags inside of my house and even helped me carry the large packages inside. "Thank you," I told him before paying him and giving him a tip for helping me with my things before going inside and locked the door. I took my bags upstairs to my bedroom and sat them on the floor before collapsing onto my bed and sighed. It was so good to finally be back home. My phone began to ring and I answered it without looking at the screen. "Hello," I said, not moving a muscle. "I really love that ceiling," Changkyun chuckled and I quickly picked up the phone. "Sorry. It's been so long since I've been home that I laid down. Isn't it late there," I asked, raising an eyebrow. "It's only eleven at night. I wanted to see you before I go to bed." I smiled as I got up and walked into my bathroom, standing in the mirror and fixed my hair. "You're the sweetest," I smiled, putting my hair in a ponytail. "I try. So did your house look okay? Nothing out of the ordinary," he asked out of the blue. "No...not really," I said, not sure of what he was referring to. "Good. That's good," he said, his eyes looking away before looking at me. "Did I miss something," I asked and he shrugged, a smirk on his face. "I don't think you did, but you might want to retrace your steps if you have to." I walked back out of the bathroom and looked at my bags. "Oh right!" I walked over and pulled out my bear and dog prizes and placed them on my dresser. I pulled out the pictures from the photo booth and stuck them onto my mirror. "There," I said, showing him, "perfect place." "Looks good, baby. Are you sure that's it? You don't have anything else?" I grew confused at his questions and looked around. I put my clothes away into my walk in closet before pulling the now empty bags inside. "That's it. This is the bag that I'm bringing with me," I said, showing him a large suitcase. "Good. I'll put your bags with my stuff in my room when you get here. Also, you have a big closet," he said as I showed him around, "what is that?" "This is one of my cosplay outfits. It's Harley Quinn," I said, showing him, "I love to cosplay when I'm bored. I actually have a calendar of me dressed up. I also have my ring gear over here. Then I have my shoes, heels, and boots all over here." I showed him the different outfits and gear that I have before walking out of my closet and the bedroom. "You have a large house," he said and I shrugged as I walked down the hall. "My dad bought it years ago and had it fixed up. Including the master bedroom, there's a total of six bedrooms, four bathrooms, a study that I turned into my gaming room that I stream in, a large kitchen, an attic and a basement. I have a large backyard that has a pool and leads to the woods. It's completely quiet and fenced in." I showed him the upstairs before heading downstairs where I had left the packages. "Oh yeah. I had some packages that were left in front of my door," I said, grabbing some scissors and walked over to them. "Did you order something," he asked and I shook my head, "hm. How strange that you have some packages just randomly show up." I raised an eyebrow as Jooheon popped up on the screen, waving at me. "Is everyone still awake around there?" Changkyun pointed the camera to Minhyuk, Hyungwon, Wonho, Kihyun, and Shownu who each waved. I set the phone up so they could still see me as I looked at one of the boxes and saw that the label was in Korean. I looked at the others and they all have a Korean label on it. "Wait. These came from South Korea," I said as the grin on Changkyun's face got bigger, "you guys are up to something." I saw Kihyun trying to hide his face, but I knew that something was up. I cut the tape off the box and opened it, pulling out a gray bear. "This is the cutest little bear ever," I squealed, hugging it. "That's mine," Shownu chuckled as Changkyun pout slightly. "Keep opening the boxes," he huffed as I set the bear on the couch and cut open all of the boxes. "I'm guessing that this one is Jooheon," I said, pulling out a bear with a honey pot on its ear. "Yep! That's mine," he said proudly as I set it next to the other bear. The next bear I picked up was a brown and white bear. "That's mine," Kihyun said, smiling as I set it down and grabbed a pink bear next, raising an eyebrow. "Who's bear is this," I asked and Changkyun pointed the camera to Minhyuk as I set the bear down before picking up a yellow bear with a diaper on. "That's mine," Wonho grinned as I set the bear down and picked up a light purple bear that was laying down. "I'm going to guess that this one is Hyungwon," I said and he nodded as I added it to the collection before pulling out the final bear which was dark purple, "gee. I wonder who's bear this is." Changkyun smiled proudly as I hugged the bear. "These are so adorable. What are these?" "Those are called TwoTuckgom. They're a company that makes these little guys and different products. We decided to get you one of all of ours to thank you for the awesome time," Wonho explained. "And each bear has its own name. Nunugom is Shownu. Honeygom is Jooheon. Hamgom is Kihyun. Minggom is Minhyuk. Bebegom is Wonho. Zizigom is Hyungwon. Danygom is mine," Changkyun explained as I looked at the new addition to the family. "Thanks, guys. I love them," I smiled, "now I need to figure out where to put them." I kept the Danygom bear close as I looked around before grabbing my phone. "I forgot to show you something," I said, walking over to a glass case and showed them, "these are my title belts that I won in the past. That's the Impact Wrestling Knockouts championship belt and that's the Knockouts Tag Team belt. Over there is the NXT Women's championship." "What's the empty shelf for," Minhyuk asked. "That is for the women's championship belt whenever I win it one day," I said, looking at the shelf. "You'll get it one day. We have faith," Kihyun said as I sat down. "I hope so. Now listen, I don't want to keep you guys up. I have to finish up packing and I have some errands to run." "Don't you think that you should be resting," Changkyun asked. "I am. But I was thinking about just taking a late flight because it's going to storm soon so it's best to leave before it hits," I explained, "so I hope you guys will be ready." "We definitely will be so let's get ready for bed," Shownu said as everyone said their goodbyes before leaving just Changkyun. "So you'll be here probably tomorrow night then," he said as he laid down. "Give or take. I'm taking a private plane so I won't have any delays or anything hopefully." He yawned, smiling sleepily, "that's good. I can't wait to see you, baby." "Me too, Kyunnie. Now get some sleep. Once I'm done with my stuff, I'm going to take a nap for an hour and then get up and head out." "Okay. I'm going to bed then, beautiful. Text me or everyone in the chat when you're leaving, okay?" "I will, Kyunnie. Good night," I said, blowing him a kiss as he blew one back before ending the call. I sighed as I began cleaning up the boxes and placed Danygom on my bed before calling the local hair salon and made an appointment. I finished up packing my bags and placed them near the door before grabbing my bag and left my house, getting into an Uber and went to the hair salon. I had decided that it was time for a change since I was going to be out of action for a while, it was time for changes. I decided to cut my hair short instead of letting it grow longer and change the red in my hair to purple. I didn't want to tell Changkyun and decided to keep it a surprise until he sees me in person. After the trip to the hair salon, I stopped by my favorite tattoo place and got both my arms finished, got an adorable wolf on my chest, and got both my lip and tongue pierced like I did once before. I went to the mall and picked out a few more outfits before returning home, just as the sun was setting. I packed the last items into my bags before going upstairs, set an alarm and laid down, falling asleep. My alarm went off and I got up, taking a shower and got dressed before calling for my driver. "Up and headed to the airport now. South Korea, here I come," I sent to the group chat with the running emoji. "This is going to be fun," I said as I went downstairs as the driver knocked on the door. "Hey, Frank," I smiled as he grabbed my bags. "Hey. Ready for your little vacation," he said as we carried my bags to his car before I returned, set the alarm and locked it up. "Yep. Sucks that I got hurt, but nothing I can do about it," I shrugged as I got into the car and he got into the driver side and drove out of the driveway before taking me to the airport. "Just be careful while you're gone. I'll keep checking on your house for you," he smiled as he parked and helped me out of the car before grabbing my bags for me and took them inside. "I will. I'm so excited. I have a really good feeling about this," I said, hugging him, "thank you for everything." "Anytime. I'll always help you out when you need me. Take it easy now." I waved as I got my bags checked before walking outside to the private plane. Before I got on, I sent a message to everyone letting them know that I was getting on the plane and will see them in about fifteen hours. I got on the plane and got settled in as I watched the plane leave the ground. I looked at my phone, smiling at my lock screen of Changkyun and I. I couldn't wait to see all of them again, especially my Changkyun. I stretched and got comfortable before falling asleep to the smooth flight.
