Chapter 7) Confronting Him

Tonight was Thursday Night SmackDown as Seth Rollins came out and stood in the ring with J&J security and was holding the Money in the Bank Briefcase in his hand.

"I would like to take this time to ask for ten seconds of silence; so that all of us can properly acknowledge the lackluster careers of Erick Rowan, Ryback and Dolph Ziggler. So if we could, boys, if you could, please all of us let's bow our heads while we toll the bell. Please, if you could, ring the bell."

Parts of the arena failed to be silent as Seth Rollins and J&J security bowed their heads in silence while the bell began ringing. After attempting to have a moment of silence, Roman's entrance music started playing and immediately interrupted their moment.

"The Powerhouse, Roman Reigns, is here on Smackdown!" Michael Cole shouted on commentary.

Roman looked around the arena and smirked over at Seth after making his way down the crowd and across the barricade.

"Good to see you again, brother." He said with furrowed eyebrows.

"Brother?"

Seth continued to smile.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt. Yeah, no, I'm not sorry." He grinned.

Seth began looking down at his feet with his eyebrows furrowed in annoyance, knowing that Roman was doing his hardest to aggravate him.

"But look at you, you're so full of yourself now." Roman then looked into Seth's eyes, knowing how he betrayed him and Dean Ambrose over a year ago with a steel chair.

"Good reason, good reason." Seth nodded.

"Actually," He scoffed, "You're full of something else."

"Roman Reigns, Roman Reigns!" The crowd erupted.

"My brother here–My so called brother here. He's got donkey dung for brains." He teased.

"Watch what you say to me!" Seth yelled, "Why don't you tell me why you really came out here, huh?"

"What I'm trying to say is, I'm gonna kick your ass." Roman punched Seth as J&J security tried ganging up on him.

He threw them across the ring with ease like ragdolls. Seth eventually fell out of the ring and then took a few steps back from Roman with J&J security at his side.

Roman felt like he got underneath Seth's skin by intimidating him. He couldn't stop smiling while walking backstage after that shortened segment between the two.

"Ha-Ha. That felt incredible! I think I got underneath his skin." He laughed.

"Probably, but he's still nothing but a sellout to the authority. Fuck him!" Dean said.

"I'm still disappointed in him for abandoning his friendship for the likes of the authority; that's going to someday turn on him like he did to you guys."

"More like karma if you ask me." Roman added.

The following day, I went to my hotel room for awhile and I heard a sudden knock on the door. I opened the door and Roman was alone for the first time in awhile. And Dean was nowhere to be found.

"May I come in?" He asked.

"Sure, come in."

He sat down on the couch and then his smile began to fade.

"Are you okay?" I asked.

"Yeah. I'm doing good." He replied. "I just wanted to know if you and I could hang out together some time? Just the two of us; because we've never had any one-on-one time together. You in?"

"I'd like that." I said.

"Great! Where would you like to go?" He asked.

"Anywhere you'd want. I don't mind."

"Maybe we can go see this movie that just came out called Jurassic World. I've always enjoyed those movies growing up. Would you want to see it with me?"

"Basically, a date?" I grinned.

"Yeah." He said nervously, "I guess you could say that, but is that a yes or a no?" He asked again.

"Of course, it'll be fun! When does it start?"

"In a few hours."

"Alright. Let me get ready and we can leave."

Roman continued to sit down on the couch and he looked exhausted as if he didn't get any sleep last night. While I was getting dressed, his eyes started to close and he was dozing off to sleep.

It took me a few minutes to get ready. I stepped out of the bathroom and returned to a sleeping and snoring Roman Reigns. I slowly crept up towards him and scared him out of his sleep to where he shouted in freight.

"Huh? Ashley!" He jumped.

"You fell asleep, huh?"

"Yeah. I apologize. I didn't sleep much last night."

"It's okay. I understand how irritating insomnia can be."

He looked up and his face was immediately starstruck.

"Wow...You look absolutely stunning."

"Thank you. Are you ready?" I asked.

"I'm ready when you are." He said as we both left the hotel room.

While we were scurrying out of the hotel, Roman looked exhilarated to be spending some quality time with me. Why? I had no idea. We never hung out as much besides visiting each others' hotel rooms and during work. Roman and I never went out to such places like the mall, or to see a movie.

I wonder what his game plan was for awhile until we made our way into the movie theater.
