This song ended up being called just "King" so I went ahead and just named the one-shot that.

Also, I'm so incredibly sorry that I took way too long to write this.  I kept putting it off, but I finally sat down and wrote it today.  I do hope you like it.

King - Lauren Aquilina

"Your winner, and still Raw Women's Champion: Nia Jax!"

Opal watched as Nia's hand was raised in the air. Not long after, Renee Young was in the ring, asking the champion a question, but Opal was distracted by what was happening around them.

She could see Alexa Bliss (Nia's opponent) to the side of the ring, sitting on the apron, being checked on by doctors. Eventually, she stood up, and she wasn't helped to the back, so it most likely wasn't a leg or knee injury.

Opal made her way to Gorilla, but was too late; they had already walked through. A few seconds after arriving, though, Nia walked through the curtain, frowning.

"Is she okay?" She asked, her voice laced with concern. She didn't know if she could face Alexa (her best friend) herself, so she knew that her girlfriend was the next best person to ask.

"I don't know. I haven't gotten a chance to see her." Opal shook her head, frowning. "What happened out there?"

"It's her shoulder," Nia said, "That's all I really know. I think she might have landed on it wrong, but I'm not sure."

Opal thanked her for the information, then headed to the trainer's room. Just as she got there, a doctor walked out. He simply nodded at her, and she walked in.

Alexa was sitting there, and she had been crying. She seemed to know that people would be showing up, and she wanted to appear strong, but Opal knew how she must be feeling.

She walked over and took a seat next to her. Alexa didn't turn to look at her, even as she reached over and took her hand.

"Hey, is everything okay?"

Alexa finally looked at her. "I don't know."

"Did the doctor not tell you? Or - "

"No, I just..." She trailed off. After sighing, she continued, "It's my shoulder. It's not too severe, so I should be back on TV in a few weeks."

"Well, that's good."

"I just... Is this really what I want to do for the rest of my life?" She asked.

"What do you mean? Wrestling?"

"Yes," She replied. "I'm going out every night, putting my body on the line, and tonight it finally caught up to me. What if I keep getting injured? Am I injury-prone? What if they decide that they don't like me anymore, once I'm off TV for a few weeks?"

"Whoa, whoa, slow down," Opal said, stopping her from continuing. "Where is all this coming from?"

"I don't know." Alexa shook her head. "It doesn't make any sense, but I can't stop thinking about it."

"When was the last time you were injured? Five years ago or something?"

"Yeah, back in NXT."

"You've gone five years without getting hurt," Opal told her. "That's, like, a record in wrestling. Some people can't go a year without getting hurt. You're an incredibly talented wrestler, and you're also very safe. You not only keep yourself from getting hurt, but you protect the other girls, too.

"And you think they're going to forget you? You're a four-time champion, and the first person to win both the Raw and SmackDown Women's Championships. They've invested so much time and money into you. They couldn't possibly forget Alexa Bliss. You're iconic."

"I guess." She was smiling a little now, though.

"And even if they did forget about you? I would never do that," She continued. "I love you too much. You're unforgettable."

She leaned over, kissing Alexa on the cheek.

Alexa was blushing now, which made Opal laugh.

"Yeah, okay." She turned to look at Opal, nothing but love in her eyes. "Thank you. I know I wasn't around yet when you had injuries, but I'm so grateful that you're here for me right now. I am so lucky to have you in my life."

"You're not just the queen of the women's division," Opal said. "You're the queen of the world.

You're the queen of my world."
