Chapter 93

"Tonight was a great night," Mercedes said as she and Colby were in their hotel room after NXT TakeOver.

"Great, indeed," Colby replied. "Trevor did great in his match. I am proud of him."

He climbed into bed with his wife. He moved over toward her, wrapping his arms around her and kissing her cheek.

"I am too," Mercedes commented. "Evie is especially."

"What's not to be proud of, in all honesty? He has worked long and hard since he was fifteen. And his journey is just beginning with being a champion."

"I am really excited that he and Evie are engaged."

"I wanted to tell you when Trevor asked for my permission."

"I knew something was going to happen eventually. And I like the fact he did it as a simple proposal. But it will be a big wedding."

"I have no doubt."

"They are discussing dates already too," Mercedes commented. "They're talking October actually."

"An autumn wedding then?"

"Yes."

"Sounds familiar."

"Yes again," Mercedes laughed.

Colby chuckled. "I look forward to walking her down the aisle."

"I look forward to helping her plan the wedding."

"It will be beautiful."

"I'm so proud of Evie. I'm proud of all our children. I'm especially proud of Aaron right now. He will do great in NXT. Aaron is doing great."

"He sure is," Colby replied. "He knew what to expect with everything when it came to his tryout in January. We can thank Trevor for that."

"I believe if Andy were still alive the two would have done it together with helping Aaron," Mercedes said.

"I do too. But there is talk Aaron could make an official NXT debut beginning in January."

"Are you serious?!" Mercedes questioned.

"Nope. Arick (Eric) Rollins might be making appearances at houseshows the beginning of January. And if he does good, he might be making his debut to TV before WrestleMania."

"Oh, my God! Does Aaron know?"

"Nope. That is between you and me. And Trevor."

"The secret is safe with me. It is so exciting. Our son will be living his dream sooner than he thinks."

"The same goes for Ashley Devitt."

"Will Keagan Balor and Arick Rollins be making their TV debuts together?"

"Maybe. But separate."

"Awesome."

Arick Rollins was the ring name Aaron intended to use. It was an acronym of his first and middle name: Aaron Patrick, which formed Arick. It would pronounce like the name Eric. There you had Arick Rollins, the son of Seth Rollins and Sasha Banks. Arick Rollins was the legit architect.

Ashley's ring name would be Keagan Balor. Keagan meant descendant of the fiery one. Ashley Devitt was the descendant of a fiery Irish Lass Kicker. There you had Keagan Balor, daughter of Finn Balor and the Irish Lass Kicker, Becky Lynch. Keagan Balor was the demon princess.

"I know a secret," Trevor whispered to his fiancée as they were in their own hotel and in bed.

"Hmm?" Evelyn asked.

"Your little brother might be performing at houseshows soon. If he keeps up his good work, it'll happen."

"Oh, my God, really?" She turned in bed to face her fiancé.

"Really. And you have me to thank for that. I love helping my little brother too."

"Why the hell not? You are the NXT Champion."

"Exactly. I have higher power."

Evelyn giggled. "Does Aaron know?"

"No, just me and your dad. Oh, and Fergal."

"And probably my mom now too."

"But that's not all!"

"What?"

"Ashley might be getting the same thing."

"Ooh, my girl might be doing the same thing as my brother?"

"Yes."

"Oh, my God! I love it!"

"If everything works out, I want Arick Rollins to join up with TR Andrews for a little bit."

"I want Keagan Balor and Arick Rollins together!"

"They're already together, babe," Trevor teased.

"That's Aaron Lopez and Ashley Devitt."

"They're all the same people, baby."

"I know," Evelyn giggled.

Trevor laughed. "I love you."

"I love you too. And thanks for helping Aaron with everything."

"He's my brother. Brothers help each other."

"They do. As do sisters."

"Yes, he has a great big sister."

"And younger ones," Evelyn commented.

"All the Lopez children are great."

"I want kids."

"You can have whatever you want, baby doll," Trevor said. "Anything you want."

"Well, right now I want to go to sleep in your arms," Evelyn replied. "But like I said I want kids."

"Two at least."

"Or maybe six," Evelyn teased.

"I'm game if you are."

"Yes."

Trevor chuckled, kissing her.

"Aaron Patrick Lopez!" Ashley exclaimed. "If you don't stop…" She started laughing uncontrollable.

Aaron chuckled as he tickled his girlfriend. "What are you going to do, Ashley Pamela Devitt?"

"I will kick your ass!" Ashley exclaimed as Aaron let up on tickling her.

"Oh, you want to wrestle then?!" Aaron teased.

"Not you! Not tonight!"

"So tomorrow then?" He smirked.

Ashley couldn't help but grin. Aaron had inherited his father's smirk, Colby's smirk. Colby's smirk that Mercedes could never resist. Now Ashley couldn't resist it.

"You and that damn smirk, Aaron Lopez!"

Aaron chuckled. "Does that mean you'll wrestle me then?"

"Always," Ashley replied.

Aaron chuckled. He kissed his girlfriend.

"But I don't want to wrestle right now," Ashley commented.

"That's just fine. I'll get you tomorrow," Aaron winked.

Ashley giggled
