Chapter Fourteen

Sabrina walked into Catering and grabbed a bottle of water. She looked around until she found Chris, sitting with Phil, Kofi, and John Cena.

She walked over to them, sitting down in an empty chair next to Chris.

"Hey, guys!" She says, once she gets her crutches situated.

"Are you okay?" Chris asks.

She frowns. "Yeah. Why?"

"You looked kind of freaked out when you came in here," He says.

She lowers her voice. "I'll tell you about it later."

Luckily, Phil, Kofi, and John were busy with their own conversation, so they didn't pay any attention to Sabrina and Chris.

Phil stops talking and looks at Sabrina, smirking. She raises an eyebrow.

"Well," Chris says. "I have a match. I'll see you guys later."

"Good luck!" Sabrina says.

"Thanks." He kisses her on the cheek and gets up.

Once he's gone, Sabrina notices the guys looking at her curiously. She blushes.

"So...?" Phil asks.

"What?"

"You know exactly what," Kofi says.

"What's up with you and Jericho?" Phil asks.

"Are you guys wanting to...gossip?" She asks. "Last time I checked, the Total Divas were sitting over there. Would you like to join them?"

John chuckles, while Phil rolls his eyes. "What's going on with you and Chris?"

She shrugs. "It's just Chris."

"You don't think he's just Chris, do you?" Kofi asks.

"Well..." She says. She looks down at the table. "He might be my boyfriend now..."

"What?!" Phil asks. "Since when?"

"About...two weeks?" She guesses. "Yeah, it's been a little over two weeks."

"Weren't you going to tell us?" Kofi asks.

She sighs. "I was going to tell you guys once I returned for good. So you guys aren't left wondering how my relationship is going."

"Oh..."

"Yeah, I was thinking of you guys."

"How was I supposed to know?" Phil asks. "You never think!"

"Hey!" She protests, but does end up laughing.

"Have you told your brother yet?" Kofi asks.

"Of course," She says. "He found out when he saw a magazine headline. He called me and I told him."

"Why was Heath reading a magazine?" John finally pipes up.

Sabrina raises an eyebrow. "That's actually a good question. It never crossed my mind to ask him."

"Of course it didn't."

After his match against Dean Ambrose, Chris walked backstage. He started to head to his locker room when Seth Rollins spoke up.

"Hey, do you know where Sabrina is?" He asks.

"She was in Catering before I left," Chris answers. "She was talking to some of the guys, so she should still be there."

"Awesome," He says. "Thanks."

"No problem."

Chris gets to his locker room, where he drops his light brite jacket on a chair. He was going to the bathroom to take a shower, when he noticed his phone vibrating. He looked at the caller ID and answers it.

"Hey, Rich," He answers.

"Hey, Chris!" His bandmate says. "Are you busy?"

"I guess not," He says.

"How's it going with that wrestler girl you were telling me about?" Rich asks.

"Her name is Sabrina," He says, rolling his eyes. "And she's my girlfriend now."

"No way."

"Why is that hard to believe?" Chris asks.

"It's not," He says. "I just figured you'd ask her out after the tour, that's all."

"Yeah, well, I didn't," He says. "Did you just call me to talk about my love life?"

"No!" Rich says. "I wanted to talk to you about the tour. There are a few dates that don't have a location. We wanted to know if there's anywhere you want to go."

"Couldn't you have just emailed or texted me?" He asks. "It would be much easier."

"I figured we could have talked," Rich says. "Do you want me to just email you?"

"That'd be great," Chris says. "I need to shower. I'll talk to you later."

"See ya, Chris."

Chris hung up and sighed. He loved his bandmates, as he thought of them as some of his best friends, but sometimes he wished they weren't so old school.

He walked into the bathroom.

***

Sabrina frowns. "Hey, I think! I just don't think about my brother reading magazines. It's weird."

John and Kofi laugh as Phil says, "Yeah, sure."

"Hey, Sabrina..."

She grins and looks behind her. "Seth! I've missed you!"

"I've missed you too, Brina," He says. "It hasn't been the same since you left."

"I'll be back soon," She says. "I promise."

He smirks. "I'm keeping you to that promise."

"I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it," She says, matching his smirk.

"I'm just saying." He chuckles.

"Come on, sit down," She says.

"Ah, I can't," He says. "I just wanted to say hey. Dean and Roman are waiting for me, then we're going out."

"You're ditching me for you friends?" She asks, raising an eyebrow.

He walks over to her and bends down to her ear. He whispers, "They're helping me pick out a ring."

Her eyes widen and she grins. "That's so awesome! Please, by all means, ditch me! That's a great reason and I am not stopping you."

"Thanks, Brina," He says. "I'll see you around."

"Bye, Seth!" She says.

He walks away and she looks back at the guys sitting at the table. They were all looking at her curiously.

"So...Where's he going?" Phil asks.

She rolls her eyes and sighs. "If I tell you guys, you have to promise not to tell anyone."

"I promise," Kofi and John say at the same time.

"I can't make any promises..." Phil says, smirking.

Sabrina glares at him. "Phil..."

He laughs. "I'm kidding. Yeah, sure, I promise not to tell anyone."

Sabrina looks around and lowers her voice. "Seth is going to propose to his girlfriend. He's going with Dean and Roman to look at rings."

"Whoa..." John mutters.

"That's awesome," Kofi says, and Phil nods in agreement.

"I know, right?" She says, grinning.

Phil groans. "You're such a girl."

"Did you not notice the boobs?" She asks. "I've been a girl for a while. You're  such a girl."

He smirks. "Would you like to see the proof that I'm not a girl?"

"Whoa!" Sabrina turns around to see Chris walking toward them. His blonde hair was wet and he looked both confused and amused. "Can you please not show my girlfriend your dick?"

Sabrina giggles and Phil rolls his eyes. "Relax, Chris. I'm not showing her anything. That's what she has you for."

Kofi had taken a sip of water when Phil said that, and he almost spit it out. John was laughing softly, Sabrina was blushing, and Chris just rolled his eyes.

"Uh, Sabrina..." Chris says.

"I'm way ahead of you," She says, grabbing her crutches and standing up. "Bye, Kofi, John. Phil, show your dick to someone who wants to see it."

"Gladly," Phil says, smirking.

Sabrina and Chris walk away. They get to the parking lot and their rental car. Chris opens the car door for her and takes her crutches, putting them in the backseat. He gets in the driver's seat and starts the car, turning the heater on and warming the car.

"So..." He says.

"Hmm...?" She asks, looking at him.

"You said that you'd tell me what was wrong," He says.

She frowns. "Oh, yeah..."

The car had warmed up, so Chris put it in reverse and pulled out of the parking space.

"Is everything okay, Sabrina?"

She sighs. "On my way to Catering, Drew stopped me in the hallway." Chris's grip on the steering wheel tightened. "He wanted to apologize. He said he realized what a bastard he was being, and he wanted to start over."

"Did he hurt you?"

She shakes her head. "No. But when I told him that I had a boyfriend now after he asked me out, he looked kind of angry and he just left."

"Hmm..."

The car is silent for a few minutes until Sabrina says, "What are you thinking about?"

"I'm trying to figure out if Drew was sincere," He admits. After a moment of silence, he asks, "If we weren't dating, what would you have said?"

She shakes her head. "Oh, I wouldn't have said yes. And if he tried hitting me again, I would've hit him with my crutch."

He laughs. "Okay, that's good."

"Aren't you proud of me?" She asks, smirking.

Chris stops the car at a stoplight. He leans over and kisses Sabrina on the cheek.

"Of course I am," He says, laughing softly.

The light turns green and he starts driving again. The rest of the car ride was silent, but it was a comfortable silence. Sabrina wouldn't have it any other way.
