February 19 2024

Three days have passed since smackdown, and there was a lot of promotion happening for the Elimination Chamber, which was going to take place on February 24, in Perth, Australia. Everyone was already hyped up for the pay-per view, and different wrestling podcasts were telling their thoughts and predictions.

It was twelve p.m. as there was a house where a group of friends were hanging out together. There were sounds of toddler babbling while running around the house, The toddler was revealed to be Hannah as she ran towards her dad, Logan.

Hannah: Dada! Look!

Logan: Hey, my little princess! What did you find this time?

Hannah: Duck! Quack, Quack!

She squeezed the toy duck in her hand as Kenway chuckled and carried his daughter, kissing her on the cheek.

Logan: The duck is back, Should we make it fly?

Hannah: Fly!

He laughed and took the duck from her hand and began moving it around while making noises, Hannah giggled and watched her father before she hugged him tightly.

Hannah: Lo... L-Love you!

Logan: Aww, i love you too, Princess.

???: *Gasps* You love Dada but not your mama?

Tay pretended to look hurt and shocked as she sat next to him, Hannah stared at her mother before she hugged Logan again as Kenway laughed while Tay looked shocked before she lightly smacked his shoulder.

Tay: Of course, She loves you only!

Logan: Don't worry, sweetheart. You know I love you.

She blushed and laughed before resting her head on his shoulder as Logan smiled while holding Hannah. A couple were sitting at the dining chair as they were looking at Logan and Tay.

Cody: *Chuckles* Cute.

Roxanne: Cute? I thought you said i looked cuter.

She playfully winked as Cody chuckled and wrapped his arm around her.

Cody: You're always adorable, Roxxie. But today? You're absolutely stunning.

Roxanne: *Blushes* What a smooth talker you are.

Cody smiled and kissed her on cheek as Roxanne continued looking at Hannah, who was trying to climb around the couch, She had a small smile on her face before she touched Cody's hand.

Roxanne: Imagine our little one doing that?

Cody smiled and thought about it, Both of them have been planning on starting a family together.

Cody: That would be adorable, Imagine their giggles and laughter?

Roxanne: Awww, you're making me excited, Cody.

Cody: Don't worry, Roxxie. We'll get there really soon.

Roxanne: i can't wait to be a mother.

Cody: And I can't wait to be a father.

He kissed her forehead as Roxanne smiled and gently squeezed his hand as they continued imagining the future together. Suddenly, they heard loud music playing from the other room as everyone looked confused.

Tay: What the?

Cody: Did Mercedes play her song or something?

Logan: Let's see what her and Duncan are up to.

Roxanne: Hopefully, they won't destroy anything.

They quickly got up and heard Mercedes's theme song playing louder, They walked to the other room and saw Duncan and Mercedes dancing together while singing her theme song

Mercedes was doing her classic dance while Duncan was doing another move, Even Benjamin and Calyx were dancing with them.

Everyone: CEO! CEO! CEO!

Cody: What's going on here!?

They immediately stopped dancing and looked at the others as Logan, Tay and Roxanne were laughing while Cody was holding his laughter and kept a stare.

Duncan: Come on, We were getting to the best part!

Benjamin: *Looks at Calyx* My dance moves were on point, Right?

Calyx: *Laughs* Yes, Benny. You were a great dancer.

Logan: Nope, Who said you were?

Benjamin glared at him as Mercedes said something.

Mercedes: Okay, But in all seriousness. We all just wanted to have a good time, Duncan loves my theme song.

Duncan: I listen to it during workout as well.

Mercedes: Awww, really? How sweet of you, Duncan.

She blew a kiss to him as Duncan smiled before he carried her as Mercedes began laughing before placing a kiss on his cheek.

Calyx: Start the music!

They played the song again as the others decided to join the dance, Everyone was dancing while singing the song until Desmond arrived home, holding three pizza boxes. He walked to the room and saw what was going on as his eyes were widen.

Desmond: What the?

Later on, the group was seen eating pizza together while talking about the upcoming WWE PPV, and they were also talking about AEW, They also cracked a few jokes together, having a fun time together.

Benjamin: *Gives a slice to Calyx* Here, for you, my lady.

Calyx: *Blushes* Aww, i love you, Benji.

Cody: Hey, that was my slice.

Logan: That was supposed to be mine, actually.

Duncan: I was about to take it.

Desmond: Well, I was gonna take it as well.

There was a moment of silence as the girls looked at everyone in confusion before Mercedes said something.

Mercedes: Screw Cody Vs Desmond, We need five way match with these guys at Elimination Chamber.

Calyx: *Raises her hand* I'll be the referee.

Roxanne: Then we know who's gonna win this match.

Benjamin smiled as the others began laughing at that joke before they continued eating the pizza together.

Two hours passed, and everyone was chatting, Desmond said that he was going to take a walk outside as they said "Okay" as Crowe left the house.

He was fixing his hair while thinking about his upcoming match at Elimination Chamber, Desmond was already prepared for the match.

He was walking past a smoothie shop until he recognised someone who was drinking a smoothie, It was Mariah May.

She sipped her drink and was recording herself as Desmond was staring at her before he had an idea.

He sneaked up behind and began making funny faces, Mariah didn't notice him yet and stopped the recording and posted it on Instagram, Desmond was holding his laughter and took a few steps back, making sure she doesn't see him.

Mariah noticed the likes and comments she was receiving until she noticed most of the comments were laughing about something.

[User: Desmond casually watching from behind 😂]

[User: No way! Is that the Wolverine!? 😱]

[User: Evil Glamour and Wolverine team up confirmed!]

Mariah: What the?

She turned around and saw Desmond smiling at her as she screamed as Crowe began laughing at her reaction.

Mariah: Desmond!? Where did you come from?

Desmond: Hey Mariah, Sorry I was just passing by until I noticed you. I also decided to sneak in your video.

Mariah: *Laughs* Oh wow, How come I didn't notice you? The comments are exploding right now.

Desmond laughed as she told him to sit down, He agreed and sat next to her as she began showing him the comments to the post as both of them shared a laugh together.

Desmond: Hahaha, sorry, though. I was feeling a bit mischievous.

Mariah: Not that I mind, I was hoping to bump into you.

Desmond: *Raises an eyebrow* Oh really? Why, though?

Mariah: Uhhh. . . Cause you're awesome?

Desmond: You really sound like a fangirl of mine, haha.

Mariah smiled at him and sipped her smoothie as Desmond was watching her with a smile on his face.

Desmond: Anyways, I'll go now.

Mariah: Oh, you dont have too, I wouldn't mind some company.

Desmond was surprised as he had a huge smile and nodded, Mariah smirked and crossed her legs while talking to him.

Mariah: So, excited about the Elimination Chamber?

Desmond: Yeah, I am. What about you?

Mariah: I'm excited as well. I can't wait to face Liv Morgan.

Desmond: Oh, I'm sure this will be a chaotic match, You know? With two amazing wrestlers.

Mariah: *Smiles and blushes* Awww, thanks, that's sweet of you.

Desmond: You're welcome, Mariah. . . Your kinda cute when you blush.

(Oh my God, oh my God, Is he flirting with me?)

Mariah thought to herself as she giggled and smiled at him.

Mariah: It's nice coming from a handsome man like you, Desmond.

Desmond: *Chuckles* Just stating the truth, It's hard to not notice someone as beautiful as you.

Mariah: Oh, you're talking about me?

She playfully pointed at herself as Desmond chuckled and continued staring at her, It was really fun to speak to her.

Desmond: That's right.

She giggled and flipped her hair, appreciating his compliments, There was already something between them, and she loved it.

Mariah: Anyways, Wanna take a walk with me? I would like to know more about you.

Desmond: Sure, let's get going.

She was excited as both of them got up and began walking through the street while talking to each other.

About fifteen minutes has passed and their conversation continued on until Desmond had a message from Benjamin as He looked at Mariah.

Desmond: Hey, Sorry to cut it short. I have to go see my friends right now.

Mariah: Oh, that's fine, Desmond. Have fun with your friends. Also, uhhh. . .

He looked at her as Mariah smiled at him.

Mariah: Can I get your number?

Desmond was shocked before he had a smile on his face and nodded, They both exchanged phone numbers as Desmond spoke to her.

Desmond: So uhh. . . I actually enjoyed being with you, Wanna hangout again soon?

Mariah: *Smiles* Definitely! Maybe tomorrow?

Desmond: Sure, I'll let you know about it. Till then, Bye Glamour.

Mariah: Bye Wolverine.

He smiled and walked away as Mariah continued watching him with a smirk on her face as she was thinking about him.

Mariah: Oh, I really have to tell Mina about this!

She quickly pulled out her phone and messaged Mina as she looked at Desmond's contact name again and had a huge smile on her face.

Later on, Desmond was watching his friends play Mortal Kombat as everyone was laughing and cheering, Desmond heard a notification on his phone and it was from Instagram.

"mariahmayx started following you"

The same notification was seen on X as Desmond had a huge smile on his face.
