I didn't know what I saw in him...

I really didn't have a clue.

His beautiful physique, the way he handles himself and never backs down from anything; and the way he's been standing up to Seth lately, and it's really what he needed to do, it's what that bastard Messiah deserved. How he treated Murphy, with such disrespect towards the disciple. Rollins did save him from nothing, but it was nothing meaningful now to Murphy. He did the right thing by putting Rollins on his ass.

Our every encounter he'd apologize to me, and watching his clear skin, beautiful skin around his face move every inch; giving away at his massive strength was so intriguing.

Dominik hated him.

Daddy hated him.

I don't know what Mom felt about him, but after seeing him stand up to Seth and defend me, really made me look at him different then when I first walked into the thunderdome. The glares and daggers he'd give me, his intimidating prescene would give me chills down my spine by just menacingly walking towards me and Mom, but he had changed. He changed a lot. Why wouldn't they look at him like I saw him?

Yes, he did some bad things but he wasn't...Seth.

He was different, he had a heart. A heart that wasn't made out of cold icicles, that stabbed everyone who came even in the closest vicinity towards it. He had a special soft spot for her, and it was so tempting but it was sooo wrong.

I'm 19. He's 32.

A massive age gap, which I reallly didn't mind but I knew a few people who did, and I didn't feel like naming them out; but you could take a pretty good guess, and if you managed to guess it right then DING! DING! DING! You win absolutely nothing.

The hotel room was oddly cozy, and snuggling up into the blankets were stress relieving. The world or at least my world was pitch black outside, the moon illuminated light shined into my room, the only thing that was on was the flatscreen TV that was screening a Jackie Chan movie, which got the giggles out of me here and there.

I couldn't keep my mind over the conversations we've been having over the past week, since Seth pulled the plug and snooped in Murphy's phone and revealed our conversations and threatened that he could've exposed so much more tonight, which caused my stomach to drop faster than a tie hooker.

I couldn't stomach the thought of Seth doing that and me have to go through a an hour talk from Mom and Dad about how "bad" Murphy. But they didn't listen.

They never listened.

I felt hot tears from my eyes from, and they began to fall down my face. The overwhelming emotion that WWE had taken on me was enough to finally make me crack alone. Mom and Dad were sharing the room next to mine and Dominik was across the hall.

I wiped my tears off with the sleeve of my large Spongebob hoodie, I didn't realize how much I'd been crying.

I scooted over to the box of tissues before scooting back onto the bed, it was oddly cold and I just wanted to snuggle under the blankets, the hotel blankets were thick enough to keep my tiny body warm and cozy, and I enjoyed every second of it, the movie was still going and I was really enjoying the movie.

Damn, Jackie Chan was hilarious. Kinda cute when he was younger.

KNOCK!

A small knock interrupted me as I groaned, I quickly scooted across before opening the door. Dad appeared with a sweater, shorts and some slip ons.

"Can we talk bebé?" I nodded, he walked into the room, before I could lose focus in the movie, I quickly paused the movie, and I posted up in the middle of the bed. Dad sat on the end of the bed, he chuckled at the movie that was on, and it was paused on a funny part.

"Rush Hour? What a classic." He chuckled, before getting serious with his face. Get ready for it. "Aalyah, have you been seeing Murphy?"

Fuck. I wasn't but we were definitely talking, we'd secretly call each other all the time and fall asleep in the phone. But he woke up 10x earlier than I do, so we got away with it and whenever we did we'd basically just talk. Rarely ever flirted and half of the time we flirted it was me who was flirting with him.

Plus he owned a cute dog named Izzy, which she was so adorable.

"No, I'm not." I said flatly, but I don't think he was buying. Dad's eyes looked into mine, he lifted my chin up.

I felt vibration in my pocket, and I instantly jumped. Dad didn't catch the sudden motion so that's a relief and I could only imagine who that notification was.

"Y'know I can tell when your lying right híja?" I paused, he always did. He'd call me out on facades before I could even open my mouth.

"Fine, we talk here and there, but we basically just check up on each other." I quickly got out before he could interrupt me like he usually does.

He crossed his arms, he looked out the window where the moon reflected on the ocean water, before staring back into my eyes. "Míja, why are you blinded by what he's done? Look at my eye Aalyah-"

"That was SETH not MURPHY." I raised my tone a bit, went a little aback, before sighing heavily and rested his back on the headboard. "Seth did that, you saw what Murphy did! How he finally turned on Seth."

"That doesn't mean he's going to side with us babygirl."

"No, but it also means he's not Seth's minion anymore, so there's no disciple." I sniffed out, Dad raised his hand to quiet me down.

I nudged my head into his shoulder, before he kissed my temple. "My Princesa."

He abruptly stood up before leaving me alone once again, which gave me the opportunity to swipe my phone and open it.

From Murphy.

I opened it and read the message;

"You didn't have to come out there."

I seemed taken aback, and judging how he was; he was looking out for me. Like he did against Seth.

A wave of heat stormed over and I angrily typed.

"I did it because you were hurt."

He was always telling me how he didn't need to be checked on, but it was a friggin lie and he knew it, yes; I know he can handle himself but not all the time. With Seth getting a dirty shot at him, and that wooden kendo stick that'll leave you bruised up for weeks that I know of thanks to Dominik.

"You could've gotten hurt out there."

Why did he look at me as someone who was defenseless. Yeah, I didn't know how to really defend myself; But I know simple mechanics.

"I'm not helpless."

I texted back, Seth must've really gotten under his skin aside from Murphy beating the crap out of Seth. It was really satisfying to watch.

"Never said you were."

"You implied it."

"How so?"

I bit my lip before moving my fingers again.

"You always tell me you don't need my help."

"I'll rephrase it better, sometimes I do and most times I really don't. But I'm appreciative of the support."

"Okay, I mildly understand."

He was a man, and a man truly needs to do stuff like this on his own. But not when's he getting beatdown with a kendo stick. Then again, I was apart of that too.

But atleast he accepted my apology right? I mean, that's a start. A couple minutes went by before my phone vibrated again, and I hurried to pick it up.

"I'm sorry again."

Those damn sympathetic apologies, every week or every time he saw me. He'd start off with those apologies. It was cute and neccessary but it was getting old and he needed to start the conversation off with something.

"Why do you keep apologizing?"

"I was blinded by Seth's vision."

He was, and it hurt to see him brainwashed but it was so nice to see him being human again.

"I gotta go."

I sent a quick "Bye" before closing my phone. Not realizing the movie had ended, I quickly switched to an Spongebob episode.

Eyes feeling heavy and mind ready to shut off, I quicky plugged my phone into the charger, I watched the Spongebob episode fade into blackness as my eyes closed and I relaxed in a slumber.
