Rose tossed and turned all night as memories of the past kept flooding her mind.

Rose had just arrived for the FCW house show when her attention was caught by a two-toned guy talking to Dusty she couldn't help but give him a once over before heading to the locker room.

"Rose" Dusty called out and waved her over

"Hey Dusty" she said giving him a high five

"I would like to introduce you to Colby he is the newest star on the roster" he said, "Colby this is" he went to say but was cut off.

"Hardcore Rose" Colby said smiling

"I take it you heard of me" Rose said

"Who hasn't" he said, "one of the greatest women wrestlers of all time" he added

Rose couldn't help the fluttering feeling that she got when he looked at her "Thank you" she said biting her lip.

"Well how about Rose gives you a tour and we will talk about your match later" Dusty said patting his back and walking off.

Rose walked Colby around showing him where everything was and introducing him to a few people until they reached the locker rooms "And here we are" she said smiling at him

"Thank you" Colby said

"No problem see you later" she said and walked off

"Rose" he called out "Would you like to grab some food after the show I mean I just moved her and don't know anyone" he said to her

"Yeah I love too" Rose said

After the show they went to a little pizza place and talked all night Rose found herself really at ease with him which wasn't easy for her due to her past.

From that day forward, they were attached at each other's hips and Rose found herself falling hard for her best friend. It was the little things like holding her hand, kisses to the forehead, spending every free and work minute together that mad her fall for him.

Rose let out a sigh as she thought about when her and Colby first met she was certain there was something between them but she was wrong.

One night they were hanging out at his apartment when Rose decided she was going to tell him how she felt.

"Colby can we talk?" she said turning to face him

"What's wrong?" he asked turning the tv off

"Nothing" she said, "There is just something I been wanting to tell you" she added

They were interrupted by a knock on the door "Hold that thought" he said standing up and going to answer it.

"Baby" a woman squealed jumping in his arms "I missed you so much" she said kissing him

"Me too" he said kissing her "Uh baby this is Rose" he told her "Rose this is my girlfriend Leighla" he added

"it's nice to finally meet you I have heard so much about you" Leighla said

"You too" Rose said in a flat tone "Well I will get going I know you two have some catching up to do" she added before grabbing her things and heading out the door.

"That should have been my first sign he didn't even tell me he had a girlfriend" she said to herself she closed her eyes and try to go back to sleep but once again it was pointless as her thoughts were taking over.

By 2015 Rose had given up all hope of her Colby ever being more then friends until one-day pictures of Colby surfaced the internet and ended up on WWE website that were posted by Leighla after she found out he had been cheating one her.

Rose was in her hotel room getting ready for her date with Randy when she heard her phone ringing she picked it up and put it on speaker "Hello" She said

"Fllloowwweerr" Colby said in a drunk tone

"What's up Colbs?" she said grabbing her shoes and slipping them on

"I need you" he said

"Colby, I can't" she said, "I have a date" she added

"Come on Rose" he said, "Look Orton is no good for you trust me the dude is a dog" he told her

Rose rolled her eyes "That is the pot calling the kettle black" she said

"Flower please" he whined into the phone and there it was hook, line, and sinker.

Rose called Randy and canceled their date with some lame excuse and ran right to Colby she walked in his room and shook her head at all the beer and liquor bottles laying around.

"Seriously" she said looking at him laying on the bed

"I fucked up big time Rose" he mumbled into the pillow

"That's an understatement" she said

"what do I do?" he asked sitting up

"You do damage control" Rose told him "You issue an apology then pick up the pieces and move on from this" she told him

"Can I ask you something?" Rose said

"What?" he said

"Why did you cheat?" she asked him

"I don't know" he said, "I got bored and lonely and she was there" he said shrugging his shoulders.

"Ok" Rose said with a flat lipped smile

Rose sat down on the bed and rubbed his back as he laid his head on her shoulder and cried "It's going to be ok" she told him

Colby sat up and kissed Rose at first, she was taken back and knew she should have pushed him away but against her better judgement she kissed him back he pulled away and rested his forehead against hers.

"Please don't ever leave me flower" he said

Rose shook her head remembering their first kiss and thinking that it was the most magical kiss she had ever had until the next the day.

When Rose woke up the next morning Colby was already gone she went back to her room and grabbed her stuff and went to the arena she was searching the halls for Colby so they could talk about what happened thinking this was going to be their chance to give them a shot but she was heartbroken once again when she found him in the hall with Zaraha making out.

"Come on Rose that should have been the final straw but no you still held on" she yelled at herself.

After Colby got injured Rose flew to Iowa to surprise him at black and brave wrestling academy but she was the one who got a surprise when she walked in and seen him and Sasha laying in the middle of the ring making out she cleared her throat and then looked away.

"Rose" Colby said getting up and climbing out of the ring "I'm so happy to see you" he said hugging her.

"Yeah I wanted to surprise you" she said

"I love it" he said, "Look I was going to tell you about us but we were waiting to see how serious it got before telling anyone" he added

"Looks pretty serious Colby" Rose said

"Are you mad?" he asked

"No Colbs of course not" Rose said

Rose shook her head and let out a laugh "How could I have been so dumb?" she said rubbing her face "Get it together Rose" she said sitting up "It's time to get Colby out of your head" she told her self before laying back down.
