This chapter a lot happens so let me know if it's bad or not. Thanks!
It was Wednesday, the last day of our week. Tonight we got to fly home til Friday morning and work straight through the next 2 weeks. Seth and Dean decided to ride to the arena with Cesaro today so it was just me and Roman driving to the arena.
"UGH!" I said as I pulled up to the red light.
"Told you" Roman said while laughing.
"What?" I gave him a side look.
"You're so impatient, waiting at a red light isn't going to kill you. Chill girl"
"I hate stopping I just wanna get there already" the light turned green and I sped off.
"We'll be there soon speed demon. Slow down before you get a ticket" I sighed and slowed down. It was quiet all the way to the arena but a comfortable silence.
As I pulled up we heard all the screaming fans and sat in the car for a few seconds before finally getting out to grab our things. We waved to some fans while walking to the building and you heard all the females screaming Roman's name.
"They want you bad" I said
"Trust me..they let me know. Have you seen my twitter mentions?" he said while making a disgusting face. We got to the building and he opened the door for me.
"Be careful guys last time I did that it started a shit ton of rumors" i heard from behind us I turned around and saw Dean.
"These fans read too much into everything" Roman sighed as we all walked into the building.
"You can say that again, Rox we riding to the airport together?" Dean asked.
"Don't we always?" I rolled me eyes while asking. Dean and I both live in Vegas so typically we fly in and out together. Yet he found it necessary to always asked me
"No need for the attitude girl. We'll see you later" and with that they walked off to the superstars locker room and I walked off to the divas locker room.
It was about 2 am and me and Dean we're finally getting on the plane, we were sitting in the back with me by the window and him right next to me, the plane was pretty empty right now.
"So ready for next week?" Dean asked
I looked away from the window and to him with a confused look on my face "Of course. Why wouldn't I be?"
Dean just looked at me "He didn't tell you? Romans fiancee and kid are going to be here for a few days next week, they're coming back with him on Friday and leaving Sunday?"
"Oh...no he didn't tell me but guess it's none of my business" I looked down.
"You okay?"
"Yeah. Just thinking of who to room with and travel with"
"You can room with me, but you two can still travel to the arenas together?"
"His family barely gets to see him. I doubt they'd be okay with his little friend tagging along"
"Alright well... just travel with me then"
"Okay" I leaned back and closed my eyes to try to take a nap and stop talking about this. It really bothered me that he didn't tell me but it's not like he owes me an explanation.
Friday came sooner than I expected and me and Dean were on our way to the arena. When we got there we decided to drop our stuff at our the locker rooms and meet in catering. I was walking into catering and spotted Dean with Seth, Roman and Roman's family. I froze for a second before Roman looked up and smiled at me.
"Hey Rox" he said while walking up to me then hugging me
"Hey Roman" I said and hugged back with one hand.
We hugged the typical length of time til we heard a throat clear. We pulled apart and his fiancee was standing there
"Going to introduce us?" She said while looking between me and Roman.
"Of course, Rox this is my daughter Jessica and my fiancee, Brittney, Brittney Jessica, this is my best friend Rox" He said and smiled.
"Nice to meet you" I said while sticking my hand out to her.
She looked at it for a second and finally shook my hand.
"You're really pretty" Jessica said while her mom was holding her.
"Why thank you, so are you Jessica" I said while smiling. She smiled and hid her face in her moms neck.
"So um Roman... why don't you show us where we are going to be sitting tonight?" She said while slowly walking away.
"Oh um yeah of course" Roman smiled at me then walked off with Jessica and Brittney.
I looked down and felt a hand on my shoulder when I looked up Dean was standing in front of me with a sympathetic look.
"You okay Rox?"
"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?"
"You seem a little disappointed."
"I just thought we were going to hang out like normal but oh well"
"Rox.. hun..you need to realize he's your best friend but he has a life outside of you. He needs to spend time with his family"
"Excuse me?" I said while shrugging his hand off my shoulder "I'm not stupid Dean. I know he has a family, I know I'm nothing special I'm just a friend but I would still like to hang out with my best friend. So sorry didn't realize that was wrong" I scoffed and stormed off.
After Raw I grabbed my bags and was walking out of the arena next to Nikki. We walked past Dean, Seth Roman and his family.
"Rox..where you going?" Dean asked while grabbing my arm to stop me.
"To the next city?" I answered
"I thought we were traveling together."
"Nope. I'm traveling with Nikki this week. later" I said while walking off with Nikki.
Me and Nikki were driving to the next city when she turned down the radio and looked at me as we sat at the red light.
"What?" I asked while looking out the window.
"Tell me what happened. We never travel together and I'm missing time with my man so you have to tell me what happened."
"I can just find someone else to travel with if you spending a few hours a day away from Cena is too much."
"I didn't say that so stop. Tell me why we are suddenly traveling together."
"Roman has his family the next few days and I don't want to travel with Dean."
"Why not? Aren't you two extremely close?"
"Yeah we are but.. it's just earlier today after not seeing Roman for a few days I was excited to hang out but his fiancee pulled him away and I understand but Dean went on to make me feel extremely stupid for wanting to hang out with Roman"
Nikki sighed and stayed silent.
"Okay Nikki.. go ahead"
"I don't want to hurt your feelings"
"Just say it"
"Look I know how much Roman means to you, I know how close you two are and how much time you spend together. And its just maybe..maybe you should distance yourself a bit"
"What why?" I snapped my head towards her while looking confused.
"Because you two are just friends and not seeing him for a day, maybe a day in a half and being this upset he is spending time with his family for the next couple days when he doesn't see them much isn't okay. Maybe you're too close you know?"
I just huffed, lowered myself into my seat and turned up the radio. I started to think of what Dean said to me and felt sad. No one wanted me to be best friends with Roman.
The next day me and Nikki drove to the arena in silence, I dropped my stuff off in my locker room and went for a run around the arena. After a few laps I walked into the backstage area and saw Dean hanging out with Roman's family and him. I felt bad for treating Dean how I did so I went to go apologize. I walked up to them but as soon as I said hi Roman and his girl walked off.
"What's that about?"
"I have no idea honestly" Dean said and looked at me.
I looked down then back to him "I'm sorry Dean. I was really rude to you yesterday and you didn't deserve it"
Dean just stood there staring at me.
"Do you forgive me?" I asked worried.
Dean tried to look at me mad but a smile broke through and he hugged me. "I always do don't i?"
"Thanks Dean" I hugged him back.
"Of course hun..but girl?" I looked up at him "Go shower..you smell"
"jerk!" i laughed at hit him on the chest and went to go shower.
Roman's family actually didn't leave Sunday night like planned. They stayed with him til Wednesday and tonight after the house show they'd be flying home. I was in catering with Seth and Dean when Dean got up to go talk to Roman.
"Um Rox? Can I ask you something?" Seth said looking unsure.
"What's up Seth?"
"Well.. Are you and Roman okay?"
I shrugged and started picking at my food. Every day since Saturday Roman avoided me. Anytime I would walk up he would walk off, I texted him and he ignored it, If i was near him, they'd leave and it hurt. It's like he forgot I existed..We even had an autograph signing together and he didn't say one word to me at all.
"Rox?"
I sighed and looked up "I really don't know Seth.. I mean we were fine when we left last week, and the first day we were but ever since then..he avoids me. I don't know what I did.. Why?"
"I don't know."
"You don't ask a question for no reason. Why did you ask?"
"It's just weird"
"What is?"
"Not seeing you two joking around and being together. Hanging out with him and his family is cool but it's just so weird without you there. It's like you two became a package deal and now you're not around. It's different"
"I don't know what to say Seth. I tried to talk to him and he acts like I don't exist... It's weird for me too. We are always together rooming and traveling together and suddenly I don't exist.. I don't know what's going on.."
Seth just nodded and we both stayed silent.
The day seemed to drag on before it was finally time to leave. I asked Nikki if I could take the car and she could go back to traveling with Cena she agreed so I drove to the next city alone thinking about Roman.
I was so confused. Last week he's telling me that he needs and wants me in his life then his family shows up and I don't exist anymore? I felt like trash. It's like i'm his back up person. He treats me special unless his fiancee here.
I got to the hotel around 2 am checked in and tried to sleep but it didn't happen.
The next day I got to the arena later than usual so I went to grab something to eat for dinner before the show started. When i hit catering Dean, Seth and Roman were sitting at the first table.
"Hey Rox" I heard Roman say and stopped. I rolled my eyes and looked at him.
"What?" I said annoyed.
"Damn what's your problem?"
"Nothing. What do you want?" Dean and Seth just sat there with wide eyes looking between me and Roman.
"Uh to say hi to my best friend?"
"OH! So i'm your best friend again? Awesome!" I turned around and walked off.
I made it barely into the hall way before I felt a hand grab my arm and spin me around.
"What?!" I yelled
"Seriously what the hell is your problem? I say hi and you have to act like a child?" Roman said irritated.
"YOU'RE the one with the problem" I said emphasizing you're.
"What are you talking about?"
"You ignored me all week and suddenly i'm your best friend again?"
"Uh I didn't ignore you"
"Really?! You walked away every time I walked up, you ignored my texts, you acted like I didn't exist! Even Seth noticed it!" I said when I saw Seth and Dean walk out while pointing at him.
"Excuse me?" Roman said while looking at Seth.
"Now wait, I never said you were ignoring her I just asked if you two were okay because you weren't around each other all week." Seth said with his hands up.
"Oh I'm so so very sorry I wanted to spend time with my girl and my daughter!" Roman screamed.
"Guys calm down" Dean said while walking up to get inbetween us
" So you had to ignore me all week!? You couldn't even say hi!" I screamed back.
"Why the fuck are you so obsessive?! I'm allowed to talk to other people! Give me a fucking break!" Roman said while running a hand through his hair.
"Obsessive?! For wanting a friend to say hi?! God forgive me I thought you were allowed to greet friends no matter who was around!" I yelled.
"Guys! Come on we're at work let's all just take a breather" Dean said while putting his hands on our shoulders.
"Fuck it" I said and turned to walk away.
"What does that mean?" Roman said sounding tired
"You wanted me to give you a break. You got it. Don't talk to me anymore Roman." I said and turned around and walked off.
"Rox! Rox!" I heard Dean calling my name but just walked faster leaving Roman, Dean and Seth standing outside catering with some co workers staring at them.
