Jon had woken up alone which was unusual for him. Normally he woke up next to Renee or…. His heart stopped. Kylee? He searched their tour bus for her but found himself completely alone. Oh god, he thought, she took off because of last night. Had I been too forward with her? Then he slowly realized. I am still married, he thought. What is Renee going to think? God what does Kylee think of me?
He sat down to calm himself and as he did, he slowly began to realize something. He cared more about what Kylee thought than Renee. Renee had stabbed him in the back. She knew about Vince's plan and didn't even tell him. And then even after it was all revealed, she still stood by Vince while Kylee put her career on the line to save him from Vince. How could he be so stupid?
Renee was willing to drag him back to the worst place possible. As he continued to recount the things that had led him to where he was. His phone buzzed. It was a video. Both Jon and Kylee were tagged in it. He opened the video. It was Renee and Dolph and they were talking about him and Kylee.
"I just can't believe that either of us could've been so stupid" Dolph explained. "I mean it is so obvious that those two are sneaking around together." He rolled his eyes as the interviewer asked Renee for her opinion on the rumor. "I understand why Dolph is so upset things have been rough. His relationship with Kylee ended and then for this to come out now. It is painful. I know both Kylee and Jon very personally. And I am honestly stunned about this whole thing" Renee explained. Jon sighed. At least she isn't going crazy over some dumb rumor he thought. "I mean I just thought that they both cared about me more than that? I trusted Kylee. We were like sisters. And then she goes behind my back and seduces my husband. And then for Jon to just give in to the temptation. I just thought they were better people than that."
The video ended and Jon's jaw dropped. She is flaming this fire that we had all tried to put out. Kenny had posted the video that proved this whole story to be false but people were still willing to believe that Jon and Kylee were sleeping together. And until last night, Jon and Kylee had only shared one kiss and that was the day they met.
A fire started to burn in Jon's chest, one bigger than any other he had ever felt. His eyes burned with tears as he stared at the now black screen. "What in the actual fuck?" he thought. His mind instantly went to Kylee. God where is she? He jumped on his Twitter a rarity for him to see what others had to say. Many were calling Kylee a bitch and homewrecker. Others calling for Renee to officially denounce him and file divorce papers.
Jon tried calling Kylee's cell, but with no luck as it appeared that she had turned it off completely. Warm tears streamed down his face as he frantically tried to dress. His phone buzzed. It was Cody; there was an emergency meeting for both rosters. Great Jon thought. He continued to get dressed and wiped the tears from his face. As he exited the bus, he saw Kylee approaching. "Hey we really need to talk" she said as she approached. Jon chuckled "No kidding. Cody is calling a meeting so we should get to the arena".
The pair walked towards the arena in silence. Each shielding their faces as people passed. Jon opened the door for Kylee and as she started to walk away, he grabbed her wrist. "Before you walk in there, you should know that Renee and Dolph went public. The world thinks we are sleeping together and have been for a while" he explained. She stood frozen. Jon felt a pain building in his chest. "I promise I will protect you from whatever is coming our way. But maybe we should step back from what happened last night."
"I agree. I think maybe we should stop it. Jon I do care about you and maybe we can be something someday but right now I don't think that is entirely what I want." Kylee watched Jon's expression carefully. He sighed "Yeah. I guess I have some things to figure out anyway. Let's get to the meeting". The pair walked to the main area and the whole room turned to look at them.
Kylee stood frozen in fear and about a thousand other feelings. She relaxed as she felt Jon's hand fall on the small of her back. He guided her to a seat. She exhaled heavily as she sat. She had never felt more stressed in her life. She knew what everyone was thinking about. Everyone probably had something to say about it too. Oh god, she thought, Kenny. What must he think of her now. After everything that was said this morning, how could he not hate her now. Her thoughts raced as she felt someone brush up against her. Jon was on her left, but she felt her right arm again be bummed. She looked and gasped as she made eye contact with them. It was Kenny.
His arm fell around the back of her chair and he just smiled. He leaned over and whispered in her ear "I already knew about all of this before we talked".
