The Zack Mercer Story
Chapter 26: Lies
The Same Day
"What are you doing here?" James said in a hostile tone.
The door of the WWE"s ME's office closed as a face from James' past re-appeared in his presence. That face was none other than Cassie McIntosh AKA Peyton Royce, his ex-girlfriend or the woman who broke his heart whichever one you prefer.
"I saw the match and I watched you get hurt and I wanted to check on you. Make sure that you didn't completely ruin your health." She said with an awkward chuckle as James sent her a death glare.
"Oh so now you care about me? You didn't seem to care when you cheated on me with Matthew."
"Look James, I-I can explain." Cassie said as she sighed while looking down.
"Oh really, I want to hear this one."
"He was there for me whe"n you weren't. You and Lexi were traveling up and down the road. I needed you and you ignored me. Text, phone calls, emails and you ignored every single one of them. I was in love with you but you were in love with her." She said while looking down fidgeting with his hands. He looked at her watching her fidget. He knew what she said was true. She was in love with him and part of him was in love with Lexi but another part of him always loved Cassie.
He sighed as he then took his finger and lifted Cassie's head up with his finger and forced her to look at him. He saw the tears that were forming in the corner of her eyes.
"Look Cassie you're right. I should have been there for you and you're right I did love her. But I never stopped loving you. I don't know if this makes sense but I loved you and her. And the love I have for you will never leave me heart even though I maybe sometimes want to stop." He joked with a chuckle at the last part making her giggle as well.
"Well as a way to say sorry I want to invite you and Lexi to a dinner at my place." She proposed. James chuckled at the proposition and looked down while he thought about it.
"I'll talk to her about it." James said. Cassie smiled and jumped into his arms giving him a tight hug as she wrapped her arms around his neck. It felt a bit awkward to him but he eventually wrapped his arms her. When their hug broke apart Cassie looked him in the eyes and he looked her in the eyes. She took the chance and placed her lips onto his taking him by surprise.
He pushed her away immediately and looked at her in shock. In the doorway, he saw Lexi looking on with tears forming in her eyes before she quickly ran away from the sight making James get up on his feet and limp over to the door yelling her name. Once he got to the doorway he looked in the hall with anger before he looked back at Cassie. He rolled his eyes at her before he limped down the hallway trying to catch her.
A/N: So I hope you guys enjoyed this light chapter. I'm going to be trying to make a comeback to fanfiction so please stay tuned for that. Oh and the next chapter of this story will be No Mercy. I'm just going to skip to that PPV and I want to try and get Sasha Banks (Cause she's one of my favorite women wrestler in WWE) active into story and I need a way to do that so if you have any idea on how to do that let me know. I'm thinking about changing the pairing between Zack and Alexa later down the line temporarily so watch out for that.
This is the ZackAttack signing out!
Peace!
