"How did you get me into this mess, Seth Rollins?" I watched as we passed tree after tree after tree. There were barely any buildings in sight. The thought of nature made my skin crawl and all i wanted to do was curl up under the covers, all warm in toasty. Guaranteed he had waited until we got into the southern states to do our little camping trip so it was a bit warmer but still. I so wasn't feeling this. If it didn't make Seth so excited I wouldn't even have stepped foot in this truck. But he had been talking about it all week, telling me everything he had planned for us. Roman was off in New York doing some other stuff now that he was Mr. Wrestlemania so it was just me and my little ninja.

"C'mon, if you act miserable the entire trip then it wont be any fun. You're ok to hike right? I mean we don't have to if it'll be too much for you." He asked finally parking by the other campers cars. It had been about two and a half weeks since my surgery and I was feeling a hell of a lot better, even eating bigger meals and getting back to training the girls. I still wasn't doing any physical activity and hiking would be the first draining activity I'd do in awhile.

"it shouldn't be too bad. I think I can handle it." We both got out of the car and retreated to the trunk. Seth piled on the tent, bag of food, and both our duffel bags onto his back and shoulders. Even though he lifted I was sure that it would be too much for him to hike and carry all that by himself. "Let me carry one, babe. I can do it. It's only a two day trip I didn't pack that much."

"It's fine, Leena. I got this. Head up the trail that way." He gave me a light tap on my ass when i didn't move immediately.

I sighed and started making my way up the trail. "So did I tell you that they want me to make all these social media accounts since i'm like "popular" now. I don't even know how at stuff works. I had to get rid of my personal Facebook and make like a business page. And what the hell is so great about Twitter?!"

Seth shrugged, grunting as he adjusted the bags. "I don't know. I use it a lot to pass the time waiting for flights or when we're riding in the tour bus. You can tweet me stupid things if you want." He said with a chuckle.

"Oh like 'freaking Rollins made me go camping when he knows I need a flat iron to do my hair.'"

"You got to add a hashtag at the end of it, or else it wouldn't be complete!"

I thought for a moment. "Hashtag black girl hair problems. That should do it."

"You're only half black. And beside your hair is really nice." He rolled his eyes.

"Because it's flat ironed! I got frizz and kink from half my family, on top of curls from the other quarter and headache inducing thickness from the other other quarter!"

"Literally Leena, you are the most gorgeous woman I've ever dated. Shut the fuck up. Please."

I blushed and scoffed to hide my embarrassment. "Y-you shut up."

He set the bags down for a moment and grabbed a bottle of water from the food bag. He took big gulps while he caught his breath. "I'll teach you how to us the social media stuff later. We're going to relax and enjoy each other this weekend ok?"

I nodded and gave him a gentle kiss. He was going out of his way to make this as enjoyable as possible. i wasn't going to ruin it anymore with my negativity. "Yes Seth. We're going to have an amazing time, especially when we get all cozy in the tent late at night."

"Ohh I have a feeling I'll be pitching more than one tent tonight!"

"For the last time, no bugs are going to bite you. I thought we established this after your third coat of OFF spray. Extra strength camping OFF spray. that usually works...in ONE application." Seth stirred the meat he had in the little skillet over the fire.

"I just want to make sure! I need all bugs away from me at all costs." I said returning the cap onto the spray bottle.

"Why are you so afraid of bugs anyway? they're harmless."

"When I was younger a gnat crawled into my ear and i could here it buzzing inside. it took me so long to get it out. And back on the home island we have giant cockaroaches that just-" I shivered not even wanting to think about how disgusting they were. "I don't even like butterflies."

"Are you serious?! Butterflies do nothing!"

"I just don't like anything with more than four legs ok? Is the food done, I'm starving."

"Yes, love, the food is done. Get the plates please."

I grabbed two plastic plates and handed one to Seth. I sat beside him on the fold out chair then loaded up my plate. "You know it's kind of nice being away from all the noise. And i can see the stars clearly. there are so many!"

"See?" Seth said with his mouth full of food. "And you said nature sucks."

I handed him a beer and chuckled. "Stop talking with your mouth full, stupid. When we're done eating I want to look at them."

He took a sip of beer and finished scarfing down his food. Once i was done eating we laid back against our extra large sleeping bag and looked up at the sky. His strong hand slid into mine, entwining our fingers together. I leaned closer to him, just enough to rest my head against his chest.

His thumb grazed the back of my hand gently. i took the moment to breathe it all in. I was finally back in Seth's arms again. things were starting to look up and maybe, just maybe, he'd want to be with me again. It was there. Everyone could tell, even us. I looked up at him, pushing my hair behind my ear so it didn't fall into his face. I parted my lips to utter his name but he captured them before I could even get a sound out. It wasn't like the feverish angered kiss we shared back at the hotel room the night I came back. It was slow, languid, purposefully so.

He was still testing the waters, guarded as ever. Of course I was determined to break his walls down, allow myself to pry my way back into his heart. I wanted to be there and I knew I belonged there. His hands found their way to my face cupping it in his palms. Our lips melded together while our tongues danced and clashed. My groans escaped into his throat as I straddled his lap. My hands found their way to the small of his back, trailing underneath the thin fabric of his undershirt and crawling up his spine. I let my fingernails leave the lightest of scratches across his shoulder blades. i paired that with a gentle nip to his bottom lip signaling that I wanted more.

I could feel him growing between my legs which only made me even more excited. "Seth..."I breathed. "I want you..."

He pulled back, leaving my hot body exposed to the chilly night air. His eyes looked like they were in disbelief. I called out to him again, extending my hand, trying to catch his. He turned away from me, our fingertips touching momentarily before he walked away leaving me feeling utterly alone.
