It's been six months since Jayne moved in with Roderick. Having to get used to each other tiny quirks and managing the time apart is the only real problems the couple faced. When she first moved in, he gave her the green light to decorate however she seen fit however she kept to something mutual. Loving that she lived right along the beach she had a beach theme throughout the condo. The only room she wanted to do special for him was his office or as Roddy liked to call it, the man den, displaying the wrestling memorabilia from his photos to his championships he had won throughout his entire career. She found herself going in that room while he was away more often than not. It provided some comfort by making her feel he was there with her.
She had come accustomed to have NXT nights with Arielle and they would watch every single fight they could both of them grimacing when their boys wouldn't win. Knowing a little about wrestling before she was now turning into a fanatic. Most of her clothes now consisted of wrestling shirts, jackets, and lounge pants displaying the names off her favorites. The nights she enjoyed most were the ones where Roddy was home and he would just talk for hours about his time in ROH and his start in NXT.
Jayne's job was even going great. Becoming a staple in the PC building, she was the go to person for legal aid. One superstar even came to her for advice on an upcoming divorce. The best part of the whole job however was when Roddy would be training, she could watch him workout from her office always in complete awe of his strength. She loved how he could be so gentle with her but also knew how to flip the switch and take over in the bedroom.
Roderick and Adam were in Brooklyn getting ready for NXT Takeover event so Jayne decided to invited Arielle over for a girls weekend. They were going to have fun and let loose drinking their drink of choice, Fireball, and watching their boys on TV. As she was finishing up cleaning there was a knock at the door. Looking through the peephole she couldn't recognize the tall medium built woman on the other side.
"Hello." Jayne said as she opened the door, "May I help you."
"I'm sorry I must have the wrong address." The brunette woman looked around slightly confused. "I was looking for Roderick Strong."
"No this is the right place." She responded, "He isn't home right now but I can give him a message."
"And you are?" The woman retorted with a sour tone to her voice.
"Listen, first off, you came to my home and knocked on my door so do not take that time with me." Jayne snapped back placing her hand on her hips, "and second I don't even know who the hell you are so you can either leave a message or you can just leave."
"Oh princess your world is about to come crashing down. Tell Roddy Marina stopped by." She smirked before turning around and walking down the stairs to the parking lot.
Shutting the door as she left, Jayne was in shock. Roderick had told her of Marina and about their horrible breakup which led to her leaving the company and supposedly going back to MMA. Her mind racing, she couldn't stop replaying Marina's last words in her head. Your world is about to come crashing down
What the hell was that supposed to mean. About as heated as she could be she grabbed her phone and called Roderick immediately.
"Hey sweetness." He said pleased that she had called
"So… uh… umm…" she stammered trying to think of how to say it, "Marina stopped by just now."
"What the hell does she want?" He asked with a annoyed tone.
"She just said to tell you she stopped by." She replied
"Just ignore her babe." He said worried about how that visit affected her, "she just wanted to start something."
"I know but I still wanted to tell you" she retorted, "Arielle will be here any minute so I better get off and finish up."
"Jayne, please, just ignore her." He responded, "Please sweetness, I don't want to get off the phone like this."
"I know. You're right." She replied trying to shove her frustrations aside and sound happy for his sake. "I love you baby."
"That's my girl." He said as the tension began to lift. "I love you more than anything."
"Good luck tonight and call me when you can." She said hanging up the phone.
She knew she had to bottle whatever she was feeling inside especially tonight. He needs to have his focus on the match and not worrying about her. She knew after a few shots however she would open up to Arielle and that's where she would get her advice from.
"Hey Ari." She said as she opened the door and embraced her best friend.
"Hey Nene. I come baring gifts." She grinned as she showed off the bottle of Fireball and Chinese food.
"I definitely need this tonight." She replied grabbing the bottle and placing it in the freezer to chill.
"Oh no. What's wrong? You and Roddy didn't fight did you?" She asked worriedly.
"No not really…" Jayne paused, "Marina stopped by looking for him and…" she stopped trying to process everything that happened
"And what?" Arielle replied intrigued by what was being said.
"She told me that my world was going to crash down." She replied, sitting down at the small table.
"She is just trying to start shit and she is just jealous because Roddy has a beautiful woman now and would never go back to her." She grinned hoping to get Jayne to at least smile.
"I know but, Ari, she was just as shocked seeing me as I was seeing her. She had no clue who I was so why stop by to start something." She said looking up at her hoping for some answers.
"Because, that's how she is. She may not have known about you but trust me she had to of known that he was seeing someone new. She still talks to Rhonda, Jessamyn, and Shayna." Arielle responded grabbing her shoulder and squeezing gently.
"Yeah, I guess you're right." She said shaking her head
"Now shake that bitch out of your head and let's go watch our men do what they do best by kicking everyone's asses." She winked.
Arielle was right, Marina had to know Roderick was in a relationship so that was probably all she was doing. Jayne shoved thoughts of her out of her head and continued into the living room to enjoy the rest of the evening.
