Okay so i know which option I'm doing thank you for the people who helped me and gave me their opinion! This is a longer chapter with no Roman, but he'll be back next chapter. Let me know what you think!

The next week went super slow, it just drug on and on. I just wanted to be home already. I usually hated Wednesdays, I hated having a day off, I just wanted to stay traveling and wrestling all day every day but this Wednesday I was so grateful for. I told Roman a week ago that we couldn't be friends and ever since it's been awkward at work. I had to switch around my traveling routine, my rooming routine and everything I was used to. I mostly traveled alone, unless John and Nikki weren't around each other, and I roomed alone. It shouldn't be a big deal but for around the past 3 months now almost every night I was sharing a bed with Roman and traveling with him, Dean and Seth but now I was alone. I also haven't really talked to Dean since that night. He stayed up with me all night comforting me and talking to me we drove to the arena together that morning but since he was traveling with Roman I was alone the rest of the week.

I didn't purposely avoid Dean but every time I would see Roman I would walk away so I wouldn't have to deal with it. And in turn avoided Dean. Him and Roman were always around each other so I couldn't exactly walk up to him and start a conversation while trying to avoid Roman. Most of the time I would notice Roman was around because I would feel eyes burning into me and every time I looked, without fail, Roman was staring at me. He looked different.. drained almost. A lot of the time I wanted to walk up to him and act like nothing happened but I couldn't. As much as it hurt I needed to let go of the idea of being friends with him and trust me it hurt. I was barely sleeping, it was too different and I had to get used to it. I know eventually I would but right now it felt like my heart was breaking every time I saw him, another reason I avoided him.

Now I was on my way to the airport alone instead of with Dean to head home. I was hoping we booked different flight times home but no luck. After going through security and everything I made my way onto the plane and saw Dean sitting there. He looked up and saw me so I smiled, he just looked at me for a minute and looked away. I sighed and chose to sit a few rows in front of him.

About half way through the flight Dean walked up and sat next to me.

"So much for us staying best friends." He said while looking at the seat in front of him

"We are best friends Dean."

"Really? Because exactly what you were mad at Roman for you did to me. "

"I wasn't trying to. It's just... I don't want to see him but since we work together it's kinda a given. I hate seeing him so I avoided it."

"I don't care what your reason is Rox. Point is you got mad at Roman for acting like you don't exist and you did the same thing to me ALL week"

"I avoided him not you. You just happened to be around him"

"You have an excuse for everything huh?"

"I'm not doing this Dean. I didn't avoid you, I avoided him. End of discussion"

"I don't know who you think you are but you don't tell me when I'm done talking. okay?" Dean looked at me with an extremely pissed off look on his face. "Did you forget that I was the one who checked on you after your fight with Roman? I was the one who even tried to stop it from happening? I was the one who tried to talk you out of it and I was the one who comforted you and got NO sleep when you ended your friendship. So frankly Rox, you take all those excuses for why you avoided me and shove them." He got up and started walking back to his seat.

"Dean wait" I called after him he turned around and looked at me.

"Congrats on treating the one person who was still there for you like shit" He took out his ipod and headphones and didn't say one more word to me. I was losing friends left and right..

I finally made it to my apartment when I noticed a missed call from Stephanie McMahon, when I listened to the voice mail she called to let me know that the schedules have been switched and instead of coming back Friday morning we didn't have to fly out til Saturday morning. This was the first time in months maybe even a year that I had two days off in one week and I was super excited to just relax.

Thursday morning I woke up at about 9 am. I went into my kitchen ate some cereal and then took a shower. I made up my mind that I would spend today trying to fix things with Dean. I dressed in black short shorts, a white tank top and black vans,and left my hair down. As I was walking out of my door and turned to lock it someone bumped into me.

"Oh my gosh mam I am so sorry!" I heard a deep voice I turned around and saw a guy I had never seen before. He had short black hair that looked extremely soft, the kind you wanted to run your fingers through, dark brown eyes, and a little scruff on his face, he was skinny but muscular and was pretty tall maybe around 6'4.

"It's okay." I noticed he was carrying some boxes and looked at them before looking back at him "So you're moving in?"

"Yeah I'm actually moving into this apartment" he pointed at the one next door to me. "So I guess I'm your new neighbor" he smiled and stuck out his hand. His smile, my God, it was gorgeous like a movie stars. "My name is Jason"

I took his hand and shook it "Mine is Rox"

"Oh hey nice name, I really like it" he smiled that smile again and I couldn't help but smile back. He went to pick up the three boxes he dropped while bumping into me and I went to grab one "here let me help you"

"Oh it's okay it's kind of heavy" I lifted it and he looked at me impressed.

"I body slam people for a living, i can handle a little box" I laughed. He led the way to his door with the other two boxes.

"Ha nice joke but what do you do for a living?"

"I'm serious. I'm a diva in WWE."

"Wow! That's really impressive. Awesome" he put the boxes down on the floor and I put the one I was carrying with them.

"Thanks. What do you do?"

"I'm a bartender for some exclusive club" I raised my eye brow at him and he laughed "as in strip clubs. I used to work over in New York but my manager decided to transfer me here to Vegas. He owns a few strip clubs and thought I could help the clubs here instead of the big apple so here I am"

"Fun job." I chuckled "So you're not just new to the building but to Vegas? Is this your first time here?"

"Yeah it is. I actually don't start til Saturday so I was hoping to get my stuff moved in and check out what Vegas is all about"

"Drinks, gambling, dancing partying pretty much what it's about"

"Maybe you could show me around? Today?"

"Actually, I was on my way to my friends house. Got a little damage control I need to do."

"Oh I understand" He looked disappointed and I could tell he thought I was lying.

"I can show you around tonight though or tomorrow before I go back to work?"

"Thanks! Sounds great."

"Alright" I smiled "Well I'm going to get going but I'll come get you when I get home and we can check out Vegas I need a distraction anyway."

"Okay. Thank you Rox, I really appreciate it. Already meeting nicer people here than in New York" I smiled and walked out the door to my car.

I pulled up to Dean's apartment building about 20 minutes later and knocked on his door. When he opened it and saw it was me his face dropped and he looked irritated.

"What do you want?" he asked

"Ouch.. I just really wanted to talk to you. Please?"

He just opened the door and let me in, I walked into his living room and sat on his couch. When he came around the corner I looked at him waiting for him to sit down but he wouldn't.

"Aren't you going to sit?" I asked

"Nope."

I sighed and ran a shaky hand through my hair. "Okay Dean honestly you were completely right and I was completely wrong. I treated you like shit when all you did was try to stop all this from happening and be there for me when it did. I really screwed up when I avoided you and I promise to not do it anymore. I'll talk to you and hang out with you, and if you're around Roman... I'll ..I'll figure it out okay? I swear I won't be a bitch to you anymore"

Dean looked at him and finally walked over and sat on the couch "Believe it or not Rox I understand. I understand you not wanting to be around Roman after all this just happened. I do think you two need to be civil because it's not fair to put friends in the middle but I guess I understand that at this point it's not possible. But don't ruin our friendship over it. Girl you know you can walk up to me and say you wanna hang out, I'll always make time for you. But you and Roman... you're going to have to be civil to each other and be able to be around each other, not only for your friends but also for your job."

"I know. Maybe after taking a few days of not seeing him, I'll be ready to cope with being around him. It's just, everything happened so fast and it was over and trying to deal with it is hard. But I don't want to lose you so if I have to be around Roman sometimes I will. But promise me something?"

"What's that?"

"You won't let us get close again. I want to be his best friend but we know how that'll turn out and it already hurts so much."

"I promise but if you need more time away from him then take more time just.. i don't know how we're going to be around each other when I have to be around him too, storyline purposes but also he's been my best friend for almost 4 years and I'm not going to throw it away because you did"

"I know. I get it." I looked down at my hands and felt uncomfortable.

"Rox." I looked at Dean and he had a small smile on his face. "I'm not throwing you away either"

"I'm nervous"

"for what doll?"

"Being around him. What if he just storms off and can't be around me? Then I can't be around you and then I lose you and then I'm all alone and th-"

"Chill" Dean said putting his hand up to stop me "Roman misses having you around okay? It's going to be different and probably a little, okay a lot, awkward at first but you got me, Seth and Cesaro to help deal with that. I just want the group back. I know it'll be different but I can't and won't choose between you two. You are both grown adults and can handle being around each other for your friends okay?"

I nodded and he smiled.

"Want to get some pizza?" I smiled and said yeah. When he was done ordering I walked up to him and hugged him.

"Thank you"

"For what girl?"

"Not giving up on me" He kissed me on the head and ruffled my hair and we went to watch tv and wait for the pizza.

I spent the day watching stupid TV shows and joking around with Dean. I looked at the time and saw it was 8.

"Shit" I said while getting up and stretching.

"What?"

"I told my new neighbor I'd show him around Vegas since he just moved here."

"He?" Ambrose smirked when he asked.

"Dean shut up I'm being nice."

"I'm joking. Ditch him. We're bonding" he joked.

"I can't thats mean. Come with us!" I said excitedly.

"Eh I don't know. I don't really feel like hanging out with some dude I don't know"

"I don't know him either. Pleaseeeeeeeeeeee?"

"You don't know him so you decide let me go out, in Vegas, at night with him?" he looked at me skeptical.

"SEE! You gotta come keep your naive friend safe. Please Dean? We can show him around and then go do random shit at my apartment like we used to!" Dean laughed and shook his head at me before saying "Alright let me go get dressed." I clapped excitedly and smiled.

Dean took his sweet time getting ready so we got to my apartment around 9. I went to knock on Jasons door. He opened it wearing dark jeans and a black tank top showing off his muscles.

"Hey I thought you were ditching me" he smiled

"I lost track of time at my friends house. Sorry" I smiled apologetically and he smiled back.

"It's cool no need to apologize. Let's get going?"

"Yeah! Um btw.. me and my friend were having a good time so I brought him with me that's cool right?" I looked at him from the side and he stopped walking.

"Him?" he asked.

"Yeah.. he's my best friend. Is there a problem?"

"No, of course not, I just don't want to intrude on a date." I started cracking up and he looked at me confused.

"I'm sorry." I cleared my throat before continuing. "Dean and I would never date. He's like my brother. You wouldn't be intruding on anything"

He looked relieved and smiled before he started walking again.

When we got to the car I introduced Dean and Jason and they seemed to hit it off and couldn't stop talking. Which is good because I am really bad at conversations when I first meet you.

We went to a casino and Dean saw some old friends so he went to go talk to them while me and Jason went to a slot machine. Every time I pulled the lever down I lost but when he would do it he would win.

"What the hell is going on?" I asked and he laughed.

"I have good luck watch" he put his hand over mine on the lever and pulled it down and I won.

"AH! I won! I've never won before!" i started jumping up and down and Jason laughed.

"I told you I'm good luck"

"You really are" I smiled.

We continued to joke around and have fun for the next hour until Dean finally came back.

"Well look who finally decided to come back." I said

"Sorry I was reuniting with some friends. Besides you two looked happy I didn't want to interrupt."

Jason looked at me and smiled then back to Dean "Yeah well what can I say? She's a pretty fun girl to hang around with" I looked down and blushed. For the first time in almost 2 weeks I wasn't thinking about Roman I was laughing and having a good time. Jason was really cool.

When we got back to the apartment Dean invited Jason to come play some video games with us since none of us were really tired. We decided to play call of duty with me and Dean on a team and him on the opposite team.

"You're going down" Jason said while getting comfortable on the recliner.

"It must be fun to be that naive. This is my game I'm going to own you!" I joked while Dean set up the game.

We played for about an hour before Dean decided to call it a night. He went into my guest bed room and I looked at Jason.

"Are you tired or you wanna do something else?"

"Do something else. I'm having a lot of have with you"

I smiled and looked down

"You do that a lot"

"Do what?"

"Look down when someone says something that could be a compliment."

"It's a habit."

"Why? You don't believe it or something?"

"I guess so. I don't have the worlds highest self esteem so hearing compliments are weird to me." I shrugged.

"I don't get how you don't have high self esteem. Rox you really are gorgeous, you're extremely nice and have a great personality. Who else would have taken some random guy out on the town and give him an extremely fun night?" He kept looking at me expectantly so I smiled then turned and looked at the tv.

"So... want to bake some cookies?" I asked

"Cookies at 2 am..I'm down let's do it." he smiled and got up walking to the kitchen.

He's probably the only guy who wouldn't have looked at me like I was crazy just then I thought.

We spent the next couple hours baking and eating cookies.

"So tell me more about your self?" He said while eating a cookie.

"Well, I was born in Tampa, FL. I don't have much family it's a long complicated story. I've always wanted to be a diva so now I am. My favorite animals are dogs especially small ones I think they're adorable. My favorite color is black. I love any type of music really. My favorite movies are horror and I really hate talking about myself" He chuckled and pushed the plate of cookies away from him.

"So tell me about you?" I said while picking up my bottle of water.

"I was born and raised in New York. I have a dad but no mom, she left when I was 5. I have 2 sisters and 1 younger brother. I dropped out of high school and became a bar tender because my dad knew the owner. I worked there for three years before I was transferred down here."

We spent the next few hours talking and didn't realize how late, or early it was getting. Until Dean walked into the kitchen and cleared his throat.

"Oh hey Dean trouble sleeping?" I asked.

"No.. I slept fine. You know it's 10 right?"

"What?!" me and Jason said together.

"Did you guys spend all night talking...and eating cookies?" Dean looked around the kitchen and then back to me.

"Um..yeah I guess we did" I answered and stretched.

"I had no idea it was so late."

"It's pretty early man" Dean chuckled.

"Ha right..well I really need to finish my apartment before I start work tommorrow. I'll see you later" Dean and him shook hands and I walked him to the door.

"Thanks for a great night Rox. Best welcome to Vegas that could have happened." I smiled at him and he quickly hugged me before walking out the door to his apartment.

I turned around and Dean was just standing there smirking at me.

"What?" I asked.
