Joe
After I laid Chloe down on the bed, she looked exhausted after the fun we had in the shower. We couldn't seem to sleep and while she was still half-awake, I laid next to her and was twirling her beautiful black hair around my finger.

"Hey baby, mind if I ask you a question?"

"What's that?"

I crooked a smile, "What are your kinks?"

"My kinks?" She said, widening her eyes, "Well..."

She looked down at her feet and looked nervous to answer my question. I softly laughed it off and pulled her close to me in my embrace.

"I'm fucking with you, Chloe. If you don't wanna answer that, then it's not a problem." I smiled.

"I can tell you one, maybe two?"

"Oh?" I said, cocking an eyebrow with another smirk beginning to form on my face, "And what would those kinks be, perhaps?"

Her face started to become as red as a tomato as she looked over at me; being intrigued to know what she found sexy in the bedroom.

"Well, one of them is choking."

"Choking, hm?"

"Y-Yeah." She stuttered, "The other one is being dominated in the bedroom and being submissive."

"Damn baby. I gotta step up my game for sure." I licked my lips, "I can fulfill those kinks for you."

"I wouldn't mind that."

"Neither would I."

After conversing for awhile, we both fell asleep together in her bed. Because her bed was a little more smaller, I held her close in my embrace for the night.

Chloe
Joe and I fell asleep together in over a few minutes after talking about our kinks and making each other smile. His warm embrace was enough to help me fall asleep for the night and I never wanted this feeling to end.

A few hours had passed since we both fell asleep and I was beginning to have a dream. A very vivid dream; if you will.

I walked around in my old house, bruised and somewhat bloody around my nose. I looked down and seen a small ounce of blood on the carpet. I was already beginning to tremble until I heard a familiar voice emerge from the side of the room.

"Chloe." A man's voice had said, "Where's my beautiful woman at?"

I remained silent.

After a moment of taking a small walk and pacing around the emptied room, there stood a tallish man with a short-trimmed scruffy beard standing right in front of me and I already knew who this was.

It was Joshua.

"Look at you, beautiful." He grinned, then his eyes began to gaze upon my breasts and then my ass.

"J-Joshua, stop it." I stuttered.

"Stop it, you say?" He paused, crooking a devious smile, "Why on earth would I ever do that?"

"I'm uncomfortable with this."

"I don't know why. You just need some dick and you'll get over that anxiety you have. You're just scared of getting fucked by me, aren't you? Come on, Chloe."

"Joshua, I already told you that I'm done with you. I never want to see you again, I don't want to talk to you, nor do I want any contact with you."

He chuckled, "Do you really believe that you'll get rid of me that easily, hm?"

Joshua then grabbed me up and pinned me against my will, whilst ripping off my clothes.

"Stop it, Joshua! Stop it!" I screamed.

Suddenly, I felt my body beginning to shake and my heart was racing while I remained asleep; but from a nightmare that I couldn't seem to wake up from.

"Chloe. Chloe, baby. It's me, Joe!"

"Leave me alone!" I shouted.

After having that horrible nightmare, I finally opened my eyes that were full of tears and all I could see was Joe looking at me with concern written all over his face.

"Chloe, baby. Are you alright?" He asked in his sleepy-tone of voice.

"Thank God!" I said, catching my breath and trying to wipe away my tears.

"Slow down babe, what's going on?" He asked, "Did you have a nightmare?"

"Mhm." I nodded, feeling defeated.

"Sit up, baby." He said with a slightly deepened voice, "Let's talk."

I sat up from the bed and Joe didn't hesitate to reel me into his embrace once again.

"What did you have a nightmare about?"

"It was about Joshua."

Joe allowed a small sigh to escape from his mouth and he looked me in the eyes, tucking my hair behind my ears.

"Now Chloe, I made a promise to you that I would murder him with my own two hands if he ever bothered you again. I don't think he would if he seen me in person." He paused, "What all happened in your nightmare, if I may ask?"

I looked down and then back into his eyes, "Joshua was trying to...force himself onto me and thankfully you woke me up before the nightmare worsened."

He frowned, "Has he ever tried that in real life back in the past, or? I think you've told me this before, right?"

I nodded and he wrapped his arms tighter around me, laying his chin on my right shoulder.

"Baby, don't worry about that because I'll protect you. I love you so much, and he's begging for a death wish if he comes anywhere close to you again."

"I love you too. Thank you."

Joe pressed his lips against mine and we both fell asleep together for the second time tonight. Thankfully, the nightmares ended and I could finally sleep for the night without an issue.

When morning approached, I opened my eyes and realized that the bed was empty and Joe wasn't anywhere in sight. I walked around the house and I assumed that he had a flight to catch due to his busy schedule in the WWE.

Suddenly, my door was being knocked on and the last time this happened, Joshua was on the other side. I was anxious to answer the door but when I opened it, I seen Joe standing there and he had a smile on his face.

"Hey, sweetheart." He said, "I'm sorry if I worried you, but I have a surprise that I think you'd like."

"What's the surprise?"

"Here you go, baby."

Joe handed me the most beautiful bouquet of multi-colored roses. No other man that I've been with hasn't ever dared to surprise me with flowers; not even a singular rose.

I looked down at how beautiful they were. He's been really romantic towards me ever since we started dating and I loved every second of it.

"Joe, these are so beautiful."

"I'm glad that you love them baby. I went on a little drive to look for some and I was fortunate enough to find you some. I know you've been through a lot and I just wanted to make my girl smile."

Joe looked over at me and flashed a smile. He was absolutely handsome and such a gentleman. I couldn't believe that he was mine. How could Galina treat him so poorly?

After he stepped back into the house, we took a seat and spent the rest of the day together before we both had to head back to our jobs the next day.

"Hey baby. I have a question."

"What's up?"

"Do you and Emma want to come to the Royal Rumble pay-per-view with me? I'm gonna be beating Colby's ass that night and I'd love for you to watch it happen." He chuckled.

I laughed, "I know he's your best friend and all, but this is something that I'd have to see!"

"Then it's settled? I'll get you and Emma front row seats to the Rumble and I'll even book you two a flight and a hotel to stay at. Except you'll be bunking with me." He said with a smirk.

"It's settled. I'm now excited for the Rumble!"

After talking about the Royal Rumble, the both of us took in the rest of the day to relax and binge watch a lot of movies together. Joe was all I've ever wanted in a man and I knew from there, that he was the man I wanted to settle-in with for the rest of our lives.
