Even after her mother has left, the brunette cannot stop looking at the mysterious birthday gift that was given to her. Before she begins to open it, she brainstorms the possibilities.
"It could be a christmas card...Mom always loved to give out those." She says to herself. A card would be the only thing she gets since her elder feels she is old enough to make her own money.
"Or a gift certificate..?" She thought about while directing her eyes to her shoe collection. The struggling college student did need something other than another pair of converses, even if they are her obsession.
"I didn't even ask for anything…" Brianna said, one of her fingers lifting the flap of the envelope. She knew of her mother's struggling finances and didn't want to put pressure on her for something as mediocre as her birthday. "Whatever. Let's see what I got…" Brianna stops the guessing games and fully opens the envelope. In a matter of seconds, she goes from being uninterested to feeling faint.
"OH….MY….GOD!" She exclaims. In her hand is her ticket to this year's Royal Rumble event in San Antonio,Texas. She could feel her heart race and her mind wander to thoughts she thoughts she had abandoned. With all of her excitement built up, who other to call than her best friend, Suki. Brianna struggles to keep her quavering hand still as she dials the number. After three rings, She hears Suki's distressed voice.
"Hello?" Suki spoke. She is quite disturbed for two reasons. One would be that Brianna is practically screaming in her ear, unable to contain her excitement, and the other reason would be that it is almost midnight. However, she should be used to it. Brianna was never courteous to time.
"Don't you have anything better to do than yell in my damn ear?!" Suki asserts, finally being able to get a word out.
"I-I'm sorry. I'm just...trying to compose myself." Brianna gasps, fanning herself.
"Well what the hell is going on with you?"
Brianna composes her breathing before she speaks again. "My mom got me a ticket to the Royal Rumble.! It also says something about a travel package."
"Holy Shit dude!" Suki exclaims, lifting herself off her bed. "Isn't that the one where you get to enjoy a breakfast with some of the superstars?!"
Brianna's mind went blank. "What?"
"Hell Yeahh girl. It is! We're gonna be having breakfast with our eye candies. Can you just picture how delicious Seth Rollins is gonna look?" As Suki daydreams, Brianna became sardonic. "What do you mean, WE?" The brunette asks. Her raven haired friend giggles over the phone.
"Since the secret is out, I might as well bring it more to the light. Me and your mom had this whole shit planned out. We even went half on the price." Suki explains and Brianna is sure whether she wants to scream or cry. "Oh Suki..you really didn't have to."
"I wanted you to have a backup, just in case you didn't make plans with your boyfriend." Suki said. Just like that, The brunette is taken down from her high. All she could think about was their argument and how it all started. She looks at her ticket.
"What boyfriend?" She sighs, sounding defeated.
"Oh no. Ya'll broke up?
Brianna heaves out a groan. "Yeah. We got into this ridiculous argument that just got out of control because we wanted two different things! Now, I just feel like a total, fucking hypocrite."
Suki gets up out of bed, walking towards her bedroom window." It's a birthday gift though.."
"That's what makes it so bad! He wanted to watch the Rumble, I wanted to go out. If I go to this stupid event, it'll look like I set up that whole argument on purpose." Brianna rambles, almost running out of breath. She is so torn about whether this event is a dream come true or a road into disaster.
"Dude...Stop being so damn hard on yourself. Now, just look at it this way. See this as...an escape. We'll be all the way in Texas meaning you'll get the space you need away from the bullshit!"
Brianna opened her mouth to say something and then quickly closed it. Suki is right. The breakup has really put her in a sad state and need some type of muse. It would also be the perfect way to show her haughty ex that she isn't going to act completely miserable without him. The event isn't looking so bad.
"It does sound fun...and I do love to travel." The brunette replies, agreeing with her best friend.
"Do I need to mention AGAIN that we'll be with our eye candies? Girl, think about Seth Rollins in a suit!"
"Oh boy." Brianna rolls her eyes. ''Here we go with your obsession with that man."
"Tuh. Excuse me! You'd be lying if you said you weren't hype to see Xavier Woods."
The brunette's mind wanders again, thinking about her old crush. She also takes time to look at her mirror. Around it, is decorated with pictures of him, From his days as Consequences Creed to whom he is today.
Brianna sighs before she speaks "We don't speak of him. I told you that."
"Don't even deny it either, I've seen your Tumblr." Suki smirks. "Fuck." Brianna curses under her breath. "Remind me to DELETE it then!" The college student hollers.
Suki giggles. "Yeah Yeah whatever. So, since our trip is definitely a go, You've got a couple days to prepare. I'll pick you up saturday morning."
Brianna and Suki say goodbye before they hang up. She grabs her laptop and sits up on her bed. She opens it and her Tumblr blog is immediately thrown in her face full of enough Xavi trash to make anyone question her sanity.
"I'd be crazy to delete this.." Brianna says to herself.
