It is just another boring Tuesday. T-Mart, the only convenience store in the whole two-mile radius, is empty at this time of the day where the sun is at its highest and almost everyone is at work. There are no customers, only the three workers loitering in boredom, waiting for the shift to finish. Murder is flipping through a tabloid magazine, Horror is manning the register, and Killer is doing her nails – all of them periodically glancing at the clock to see when they will be released from this hell.

“huh, have you heard the new scandal of dream yet?” Murder asks out of the blue, breaking the stale silence among them.

“dream… like our ceo’s brother? that dream?” Horror perks up.

“yeah,” Murder says, her mouth curved into a devious smirk. “apparently she got caught sneaking out of the hotel with ink. you know… the famous musician.”

“wait, isn’t ink married? to that wwe performer – crux or something?”

“cross, yeah. here, look at this.” Murder flips the magazine to show Horror the salacious photo: Dream in a trench coat and Ink in an oversize hoodie, both looking like deers caught in the headlights.

Killer snorts from across Horror, which is as close to a laughter as she gets. “that is the least stealthy thing i’ve ever seen. trench coat and sunglasses? that’s one face mask away from announcing to the world that you’re doing something you shouldn’t be doing.”

Murder smirks back. “apparently her publicist is saying this is a business meeting.”

“at 2 am?” Killer grins, propping her chin on her hand. “they should’ve met in broad daylight. no one suspects shady business at brunch time.”

“they’d get caught anyway,” Horror muses. “the universe really loves to create chaos.”

Yep, just another regular Tuesday.

Until the wall explodes.

“oh, come on,” Horror groans, ducking under the register as chunks of drywall fly all over the place.

Through the dust strides a figure in a long black coat, slightly floating off the ground. A web of strings shoots from the figure, quickly covering the whole area with glitching patterns and noises of a dying Wi-Fi modem. The air hums with electricity as the apparent villain points at the three unfortunate minimum wage workers.

“fear me, you abominations – for i am error the destroyer! surrender your worthless lives to me, or face your deletion off this world!” The villain proclaims, her voice crackling like a compressed MP3 file.

The trio exchange unimpressed glances.

“seriously?” Horror raises an eye ridge at Error. “that’s your line? that’s so corny. where did you get that from? straight-to-dvd trash bin?”

Error’s fingers glow ominously. “do not dare to underestimate me, you-”

Murder interrupts whatever is about to come out of the villain’s mouth. “oh, we’re shaking in our boots,” she deadpans, glaring at the destroyed wall with a twitch in her eye. “every week there’s a new evil overlord wannabe around these parts. blah blah world domination blah blah you’re gonna be my minions – we get it already. take the cash. or burn the place down. we’re not getting paid enough for this.”

“keys are under the fire alarm box,” Killer chimes in. “just don’t take the slushie machine though – it’s the only thing keeping us alive here.”

Error’s face glitches. She clearly doesn’t expect this level of apathy from her soon-to-be hostages. “insolent worms! you will submit!” she screeches.

“big words for someone who looks like a tiktok filter,” Killer quips, now holding a boxcutter and spinning it in her hands. “also, that’s just a horrendous costume. Where did you get it? The bargain bin?”

“how dare you- this is a custom design!”

“yeah, it shows.” Killer tilts her head, grinning. “and not in a good way.”

“well,” Horror says to the side, squinting at her phone. “according to chirper updates, the starlights should be here in three minutes. so if you’re gonna finish your monologue, you should probably do it now before they haul your ass to who-knows-where.”

Error splutters, her glitches spreading to the rest of her body as she’s incandescent with rage. “you- all of you insolent freaks! you will regret this!”

“not more than this job, i wager,” Murder says, her voice bored. “you know, if you want to be an evil nuisance, you can just go to business school. like our blood-sucking ceo.”

Error looks like she might implode on the spot. “you can’t just- you can’t-”

“aww, what’s the matter, glitchy?” Killer drawls. “the school of evil didn’t teach you how to deal with a little bit of criticism?”

Before Error can say anything in response, another wall explodes, showering people with even more debris.

“STOP RIGHT THERE, ERROR!!” a chorus of voices exclaim. The local magical girl squad – the Starlights – have arrived in all the pastel and frilly glory, posing dramatically in the rubble. There’s Solar, the leader of the group holding a bow in her hands. Prism, who brandishes a giant calligraphy brush. And Aqua, who wields two billy clubs. Any villain would hate to cross their paths, and Error isn’t an exception.

The customer service trio quickly hides somewhere when the fight starts, but still peeks in to see what’s happening. The Starlights launch into their usual spiel about love, righteousness, and protecting the innocent, while Error’s glitching presence seems to falter even more. Murder leans toward Killer.

“10g saying that villain will break in five minutes because of the speeches instead of the fighting.”

“pfft, should be three minutes max.” Killer counters.

Three minutes later, Error is wrapped in sparkly ribbons, courtesy of the Starlights, and hauled away as the squad strikes yet another triumphant pose. The day is saved, but the store is probably not. The workers exchange another look with each other.

“thanks for cleaning up the mess,” Horror calls out sarcastically as the magical girls prance out of the store through the hole they created. “urgh, can we go home now?” she asks, slumping even further onto the counter.

“nope. still got four hours left,” Murder replies, uncaring as she picks up the discarded magazine and continues reading it.

Killer sighs, flipping the boxcutter back into her pocket. “i’m gonna break the slushie machine.”

“do it,” Horror says, completely deadpan, her eye staring straight at Killer. “i dare you.”

Just another Tuesday.

YAYAYAYAYA I BREEEZED OVER IT I GOTTA REALLY READ IT BUT ITS SO FUNNY. The way they're so nonchalant is the funniest thing ever, they're just trying to survive their shift bruh 💔

{~I'm very serious with you guys interacting with my writing!!!! it would make me so happy & excited, the more comments & reposts the more inspiration i have to write :) likes and comments are strongly appreciated so please COMMENT COMMENT COMMENT COMMEENNTTT the more comments the more content <3!!!~}

For most of April things went amazingly smooth, Cody won his first ever Wrestle Mania Championship, Kinsley had a girls soccer game and won with the graces of Mira, It was finally May, it was Kinsley’s last week of school and then the summer would start off with Cody & Delilah’s wedding.

Delilah sat in the principals office with Cody at her old girls only k-12 school she attended for the early years of elementary and middle school, This is where Kinsley was also attending, why are they at the principals office you may ask? “Mrs Jon-“ “Rhodes.” Cody coughed out and snickered when Lilah nudged his knee “Mrs Rhodes…I haven’t seen you since your graduation, I’m pleased to see you, as I know your little sister is attending this school I had high expectations of her given the fact she is related to you, but I suppose not..” Delilah raised a brow and turned to look at Cody but he placed a hand on her stomach “Lilah n-“ Delilah shook her head patting his shoulder as a way of telling him to let her say her peace “Who are you addressing right now? I’ll have you know Kinsley is a goddamn genius compared to half of the kids in this school. She has all A’s and a damn good soccer player so what the hell could she have done to be spoken about like this?” The principal sighed removing his glasses “Kinsley fought another student, she claims this girl has been bullying her and hit her first so she fought back but you know we don’t tolerate violence.”

“So why is she being punished and not the other girl bullying her?” Cody questioned with a confused expression “Well Sir, She uhm..Before she began fighting the little girl it was confirmed that she told her and I quote ‘I’m gonna RKO your pasty ass’ and you know we just can’t tolerate tha-“ Lilah snorted and covered her mouth followed by Cody as he cleared his throat “She’s a um..a big wrestling fan.” The room went silent & eventually Kinsley was requested to come into the office “That teaches her violence Mr Rhodes we suggest you control what she wat-“She’s doing perfectly fine thank you. She hasn’t ever been violent unless it comes to self defense & second off, You do realize the man you are addressing right now IS in wwe correct? She looks up to him & watches him 24/7 just to be his biggest supporter”Delilah chirped back in trying to keep herself calm for her & the baby’s health & decided to take the suspension papers that laid on the desk & sign away “Well maybe his career choice in life has taken an impact and influence on he-“

“Okay so she got in a fight with a bully..did you win?” Kinsley nodded while the principal glared “Mr Rhodes that is a very inappropriate question.” The blonde shrugged and looked over at his Fiancé who was busy signing off suspension papers “So what? She got bullied, whoever the little asshole was hit her first so she fought back. It’s called self defense, back in my day we handled conflict with beating the hell out of each other.” The principle let out a sigh while Delilah pushed the papers aside “Look we know Kinsley may have gotten viol-“ Cody interrupted “Kinsley is justified. And I know this is the same school Delilah went too which means I know someone who went here as well and boy does she have a large track record of being a pain in your guy’s ass”

The principle raised an eyebrow as he had a puzzled face expression before the doors opened making him quickly realize Cody & Delilah came with backup “I knew I’d see your old wrinkly ass again one day.” Mira spoke as she walked in with Randy before making Cody get up out of a seat so she could sit down while Kinsley just stood awkwardly “Look I can just take the suspen-“ Mira shot her a look “Let me handle it.” The elderly man stared at the 4 sitting in his office and shook his head “Ms Mirabella, This does not concern y-“ “It absolutely does. I don’t understand how you let a bully freely go back to class but your screwing over Kinsleys education by suspending her for SELF DEFENSE.”

“That is because she should have reported it to a tea-“ “Bullshit.” Delilah, Randy, Cody & Mira spoke in unison before Randy took the lead “Your going to suspend the one who has been bullying Kinsley & your going to do it immediately.” Delilah got involved again and spoke with a serious tone, Mira nodded in agreement and spoke up once mode “I would suggest this happens after we leave this nasty ass office otherwise I will key your car again like before & smash your windows in? Got it? Awesome, cool, Let’s go.”

Delilah smiled politely & gently scooted a sticky note to the older principle which showed to be a doodle of a middle finger that she made with all of the time she had while Mira and Randy come to Kinsley’s defense.

“I think we did really good in there what about you!” Cody held up a high-five in Mira’s direction making her glare “Get your hand away from my face before I end the chances of you having anymore children.” She spoke blandly before turning to Kinsley “Did you win?” The little girl stood in silence before nodding “Good girl. Maybe when we get you home you can beat Cody’s ass.” Delilah placed her hands against her stomach “Mira..n-” “Oh my god what he could teach her self defense or something and she can beat him up” Cody scratched his neck “I’d rather not get my ass beat by a child.” Mira grabbed a clump of dirt once they made it outside of the school “Nobody asked you.” She spoke before throwing the dirt at his head.

Cody signed and turned to Delilah & smiled at her as he admired her beauty until she walked closer towards him and swiped the dirt off of him & smiled “You’re gonna have to take a shower when we get back home.” He hummed in agreement “Are you gonna help me get washed up?” She smiled and kissed his cheek “Nope. I have bridal duties to take care of” he chuckled “Do these bridal duties include you going to target when I’m not paying attention so you could buy 10000 more baby clothes?” Mira turned around after speaking with Randy & watched the couple and smiled to herself as she saw the glimmer in Delilahs eyes everytime Cody brought up the word “baby”

Two days later they all agreed on having a bachelor & bachelorette party together instead of separately since they both wouldn’t function without each other. It was a small party at the flower & boutique shop, miraculously made her famous fruit crepes, Randy grilled some steak since the shop was still in front of the beach. Kinsley was running around with Seth playing tag, but Cody & Delilah snuck off walking around in the sand hand in hand “What’s on your mind love?” Cody blurted out after noticing her calm silence “just reminiscing” she smiled and stopped walking just to wrap herself around his embrace “Your just the most beautiful man I’ve ever seen” Cody grinned ear to ear before pulling her in for a kiss & mumbling against her lips “I have a surprise for you after our wedding” Delilah tilted her head and smiled “I don’t need any surprises marrying you is already enough”

May 10th 2018

Delilah and Mira were at an after party for their recent high-school graduation, Lilah had a few drinks along with Mira and the two partied for hours.

Throughout the night they would go up and dance or drink but now all they wanted to do was relax, so they did, they found a guest bedroom and sat talking about life and their parents

“What do you want your wedding to be like lils?”

Delilah smiled at the thought “Well, I always wanted my wedding held in a floral garden with a gazebo to get married in during the reception, I want a white dress with a corset top and the ends of the dress shades with a light pink with fake pink roses sewn into it and the veil that covers my face..the groom will choose whatever cake he wants, I want the wedding song for when I walk down the isle as Paris, Texas by Lana Del Rey, a-and I walk kinsley to be the flower girl and if they are well bonded I want my husband to have a dance with her..the colors need to be white and light shades of floral colors when it comes to decorations”

Mira smiled and knew Delilah was set and stone for this whenever she gets married

“I believe that whoever my husband is, God brought him to me, because I pray that when I find that man he & Kinsley will be two peas in a pod. What do you want for your wedding?”

Mira sat & thought before smiling to herself “I don’t know, I guess I never really thought about it, maybe something like a beach wedding, like tropical-ish, I would want the kiss to fall at a sunset type of thing after the vows, I want a white thin mermaid wedding dress with a slit on the side of my thigh, I’d want my cake to be vanilla but with some sort of fruity icing in the middles y’know?”

Delilah smiled and held her best-friend’s hand “I’ll make it happen Mira.”

3 Weeks Later, May 25th, Present time

Delilah stood in the dressing room staring at herself in the mirror as Mira helped tie the white floral print corset that was attached to the wedding dress that had the pink ombre at the bottom with pink roses sewn into it, Mira decided not to make it too tight, she smiled as she pulled her hair back a bit before placing the veil with pink roses that were also sewn in, Mira felt a tear drop onto her cheek as she saw her bestfriend in the full look

“Cody is a lucky man Delilah.” Mira spoke Lilah smiled and turned around to face her bestfriend that would be officiating the wedding between Cody & Delilah

“Thank You, Mira, for making my dreams come true and just being here for me, You’ve been my best-friend for so many years, because you’ve done so much for me I have a surprise for you later tonight, It’s my turn to make your dreams come true.” Delilah smiled along with Mira before pulling her in for a hug “You’re like my sister Delilah. Y’know I’d do anything for you.”

An hour later 30 minutes before the reception started Delilah pulled Randy in a private area to discuss his relationship with Mira.

“How long have you two been dating?” Randy sighed and shoved his hands in his pockets “since the cabin vacation, I-I really love Mira I just don’t know how to show i-“ “then learn Randy, she would drop everything to do anything for or with you and you know it”

Randy nodded and fiddled with something in his pocket “I want to uhm..Marry her lilah, I have the ring with me everyday but I’m just- I’m scared shitless.” Delilah smiled “I’m aware, I won’t tell you how I know but I will tell you how you’ll propose..”

Meanwhile Randy & Delilah plotted, Mira stood in Cody’s dressing room and helped him adjust the tie on his suit and do any double takes “Aside of me fuckin’ with you I just want to say you’re actually pretty cool, thank you for coming into Delilah & Kinsey’s life” Cody grinned and gave her a hug “Of course, Thank you for helping me with the proposal, the wedding, everything. You’re amazing Mira, I wouldn’t be getting married if it weren’t for your help.” The two smiled and hugged.

Once it was time Randy walked Delilah down the isle as the soft harmony of Paris, Texas by lana del ray surrounded everyone’s ears, kinsley followed behind her gently tossing flower petals as many butterflies flew through until Delilah & Cody were face to face as Mira spoke up

“Welcome family, friends and loved ones. We are gathered today to celebrate the union of Cody and Delilah, We are all here to support this commitment of love and to share the joy of one another and the love as they choose to spend their lives together. Cody and Delilah your marriage will be a lifelong promise to love, respect, trust and honor each other through the good, the bad and the unexpected. This union represents your commitment to support one another as individual beings but share your joys, sorrows, and dreams as one. Today, you gain an equal partner that will be your confidant, your defender and your motivator through all of your aspirations and goals. You will celebrate each accomplishment, provide peace through every setback and most importantly, give love in life’s both big and little moments. If you two have any vows to say please share them now.”

Cody cleared his throat as he gently held Delilah’s hand while he stared at her through the veil that covered her face, “Delilah, When i first met you in the flower shop something told me that I needed to keep visiting that shop, and after I got to know you more I then realized I needed you in my life, I knew immediately we would have a story to build together along with a future, I’m more than grateful that you & Kinsley were brought into my life. I love you to the moon and saturn.”

Delilah smiled ear to ear at his loving words before taking a deep breath “Cody when you met me I was in the most difficult place of my life, and so soon you were already willing to help me and guide me through every curve and bump on the road but You have been so impactful for Kinsley & I, you showed me that love is the most magical thing in the world, You treat Kinsley as if she was yours & you give her a safe place to express herself, after weeks of talking I just knew you would be my husband one day, And I am so grateful to say that my dream came true & I get to call myself your wife today.”

Mira smiled as she wiped the tears off her face “Cody I now ask that you repeat after me, I Cody take you Delilah as you are, I promise from this day forward to love and treasure you for the rest of my life, to be your rock when things get tough, to be your number one fan in all of your accomplishments, to be grateful for all that you are and for choosing to spend the rest of your journey with me, to be patient and kind, to build a safe and loving home with you, to fill your days with laughter, to inspire you to pursue your dreams, to be faithful, to grow old with you and live a fulfilled life. This I promise you.

Cody grinned and tightened his Grip on her hands “I Cody take you Delilah as you are, I promise from this day forward to love and treasure you for the rest of my life, to be your rock when things get tough, to be your number one fan in all of your accomplishments, to be grateful for all that you are and for choosing to spend the rest of your journey with me, to be patient and kind, to build a safe and loving home with you, to fill your days with laughter, to inspire you to pursue your dreams, to be faithful, to grow old with you and live a fulfilled life. This I promise you.”

“Delilah, please repeat after me.”

Mira repeated the speech as she turned towards her head towards Delilah “I Delilah take you Cody as you are, I promise from this day forward to love and treasure you for the rest of my life, to be your rock when things get tough, to be your number one fan in all of your accomplishments, to be grateful for all that you are and for choosing to spend the rest of your journey with me, to be patient and kind, to build a safe and loving home with you, to fill your days with laughter, to inspire you to pursue your dreams, to be faithful, to grow old with you and live a fulfilled life. This I promise you.”

Delilah smiled widely as soft tears drifted down her cheeks while Cody caressed her hand with his thumb

“I Delilah take you Cody as you are, I promise from this day forward to love and treasure you for the rest of my life, to be your rock when things get tough, to be your number one fan in all of your accomplishments, to be grateful for all that you are and for choosing to spend the rest of your journey with me, to be patient and kind, to build a safe and loving home with you, to fill your days with laughter, to inspire you to pursue your dreams, to be faithful, to grow old with you and live a fulfilled life. This I promise you.”

Mira sighed out in relief and nodded her head as Seth pulled out the wedding rings and handed them too her

Cosy take this ring and place it on Delilah’s finger. Repeat after me:

Delilah I give you this ring as a symbol of the promise I made to you today.”

Cody repeated Mira’s words to delilah and as he placed the ring on her finger he pressed a soft kiss against the ring as Delilah repeated after Mira and placed the ring on his finger.

“Having pledged your love and promise to one another today in front of all of your friends and family and by the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride.”

Cody immediately pushed the vail over Delilah’s face and pulled her in by the waist as he pressed his lips against hers and stroked her lower back before she pulled away to hold the side of his face as the two let out a cry of happiness

“Congratulations! Friends and family, it is my honor to introduce to you: Mr. and Mrs. Rhodes”

Later that night everyone attended the after party, Delilah gathered everyone around as she spun around to throw the bouquet, the ladies stepped aside as Mira quickly caught it while Cody tosses a small black box towards Randy

Everyone cheered for Mira as she laughed a hit and held the flowers and while she spun around she stopped immediately as she noticed Randy infront of her on his knees holding a small black box revealing a beautiful saphire blue ring “Mira I know that at times I can be a total dick & I know that we tend to bicker a lot but, I love you more than one could imagine babygirl & I want to thank you for showing me your love, your care & your loyalty, Your a drop dead gorgeous woman & you are so charismatic and funny and I love you so fucking much for being the person you are” Mira covered her mouth as she let out a small cry followed with a smile on her face “After months of being with You I slowly realized you were the one I’ll he marrying one day so I ask you now..Will you give me the privilege of making me your husband?” She let out a rushed out “Yes!” Before putting the ring on and hugging him tightly as she pressed kisses all over His face, Cody & Delilah smiled together as they watched the couple infront of them celebrate each other.

Moments later He & Delilah cut the cake & revealed the pregnancy & shared a slow dance together, Delilah eventually pulled Kinsley on the floor as she shared a dance with him & just had fun bouncing around.

Seth approached Delilah from the side lines of the dance floor “Congratulations Delilah, I’m happy for the both of you.” She smiled and pulled him in for a hug “Thank you seth, That means a lot to me.”

For last 30 minutes Delilah & Mira danced with each other, Jey shared his excitement on being an uncle to the baby. Cody admired his wife

Many hours into the party Delilah stood on a balcony as she admired the flowers and sunset before realizing Cody was approaching her with a smile “Hi gorgeous.” She hummed softly and wrapped her arms around him as the wind caused her dress to start flowing “Hi handsome” Cody smiled as his fingers dragged through her subtle curls before pressing a kiss against her lips and holding her close.

“I love you to the moon and beyond Delilah.”

Chapter two: oh, that's awkward

Jeys POV:

I woke up feeling restless, my mind still buzzing from last night's conversation with Rhea. I've been missing my road trip buddy something fierce, but now I'm starting to realize it's more than that.

I've always thought of Rhea as my partner in crime, my confidante, and my WWE sister. But as we chatted about her return to the ring, I caught myself feeling...different. I couldn't help but notice the way her voice sounded over the phone, or the way my heart skipped a beat when she laughed.

I pushed those feelings aside, telling myself it was just excitement for her return. But as I lay in bed, I couldn't shake the image of Rhea's bright smile or her sparkling eyes.

I've always been the player of the group, never getting too attached to anyone. But now, I'm starting to realize that maybe I was just waiting for the right person to come along – and that person might be Rhea.

I threw off the covers and got out of bed, trying to shake off the feeling. But as I got ready for the day, I couldn't help but think about Rhea in a different light.

I met up with Shamus and the rest of the guys for breakfast, but my mind was elsewhere. I kept wondering what Rhea was doing, if she was thinking about me too.

As we finished up and headed out, I caught myself glancing at my phone, hoping for a text from Rhea. I knew I was being ridiculous – we're just friends, after all – but I couldn't help the flutter in my chest.

I took a deep breath, trying to calm down. I need to get my head in the game, focus on our upcoming matches and the WWE tour. But as I walked out of the hotel lobby, I couldn't help but wonder if maybe, just maybe, there's more to my feelings for Rhea than friendship.

Maxine meets Jey at the gym, and right away, she notices that something's off. Jey's usually energetic and pumped up when they work out together, but today, he seems distant and preoccupied.

"Hey, babe, what's going on?" Maxine asks, concern etched on her face. "You're not yourself today. Is everything okay?"

Jey tries to brush it off, not wanting to get into it with Maxine. "Yeah, I'm fine, just a little tired, that's all."

But Maxine's not buying it. She's been with Jey long enough to know when he's hiding something. She presses him for more information, and Jey reluctantly opens up about his feelings.

"Honestly, Max, I'm just feeling a little...restless. Being on the road with the WWE is taking a toll on me, and I miss Rhea. We used to have so much fun together, and now she's gone, and I'm stuck with Shamus, who's driving me nuts."

Maxine's expression changes from concern to annoyance. She's heard about Rhea before, and she's not a fan. In her mind, Rhea is the reason Jey's been distant and preoccupied lately.

"Rhea, Rhea, Rhea. That's all you ever talk about," Maxine says, her voice rising. "Can't you see that she's not good for you? She's always causing drama and trouble, and now she's gone, and you're still pining after her?"

Jey realizes his mistake and tries to backpedal. "Max, that's not fair. Rhea's my friend, and I'm just worried about her. I care about you, and I don't want you to think that I'm still hung up on her."

But the damage is done. Maxine's jealousy has been sparked, and she's not going to let it go easily. This could lead to some interesting conflicts in their relationship, especially if Rhea comes back into the picture...

- flashback to when Jey and Maxine met-

It was a few months ago, during a WWE tour stop in Las Vegas. Jey was out with some of the other wrestlers, celebrating a big win, when he spotted Maxine across the room. She was a stunning beauty, with long, curly brown hair and piercing green eyes. Jey was immediately drawn to her, and he made his way over to introduce himself.

Maxine was a cocktail waitress at the club, and she was used to dealing with rowdy customers. But there was something about Jey that caught her attention. Maybe it was his charming smile, or the way he carried himself with confidence. Whatever it was, Maxine was intrigued, and the two of them struck up a conversation.

As they talked, Jey learned that Maxine was a fitness enthusiast, and they bonded over their shared love of working out. Maxine was impressed by Jey's dedication to his craft, and Jey was drawn to her ambition and drive.

Before the night was over, Jey had asked Maxine out on a date, and she had accepted. Their first date was a success, and soon they were inseparable. Maxine was everything Jey thought he wanted in a partner - beautiful, confident, and supportive.

But as their relationship deepened, Jey started to realize that Maxine had some...let's say, "strong" personality traits. She could be possessive and jealous, especially when it came to other women. Jey tried to brush it off as insecurity, but deep down, he knew it was more than that.

Despite this, Jey was smitten with Maxine, and he convinced himself that he could handle her quirks. But now, with Rhea back in the picture, Jey's starting to realize that he might have made a mistake...

- End of flashback --

Jey and Maxine were in the middle of a intense workout session at the gym, sweating and pushing themselves to the limit. They had just finished a set of burpees and were taking a quick break to catch their breath.

As they stood there, sipping on their water bottles, Jey couldn't help but think about their argument earlier. He had felt so frustrated and trapped, like he was walking on eggshells around Maxine all the time.

"Hey, Max," Jey said, looking at her with a serious expression. "Can I ask you something?"

"Of course, what's up?" Maxine replied, her expression changing to one of concern.

"I don't know, it's just...I feel like we're not on the same page, you know? We had that fight earlier, and it made me realize that I'm not really happy in our relationship," Jey said, his voice low and tentative.

Maxine's expression darkened, and she crossed her arms over her chest. "What are you talking about, Jey? We just made up. Everything is fine."

"I know, and I'm sorry if it seems like I'm bringing it up again. But honestly, I've been feeling this way for a while now. You get so upset when I don't answer your calls right away, or when I spend time with my friends. It's like you don't trust me," Jey said, his voice firm but calm.

Maxine's face fell, and she looked at Jey with a mixture of hurt and anger. "That's not true, Jey. I just care about you, and I don't want to see you get hurt."

"I appreciate that, but it feels like you're trying to control me, Max. Like you're trying to dictate who I can and can't hang out with. That's not healthy, and it's not fair to me," Jey said, his voice rising.

Maxine's eyes narrowed, and she took a step closer to Jey. "So now you're saying I'm controlling? That's rich, coming from you, Mr. 'I-want-to-spend-all-my-time-with-Rhea'."

Jey sighed, feeling a sense of frustration. "Max, that's not what I'm saying. I'm just saying that we need to find a balance. I care about you, but I need my own space and friendships too."

The tension between them was palpable, and Jey knew that this conversation was far from over. But he was determined to make his point, and to figure out if Maxine was really the right person for him.

Maxine's face twisted in anger, and she took another step back from Jey, her eyes flashing with hurt and betrayal. "You know what, Jey? I think we're done. I think we're done with this conversation, and I think we're done with our relationship. You're clearly not happy with me, and I'm tired of trying to make it work."

Jey felt a pang of guilt and regret, but he knew he couldn't take it back now. He had been honest with Maxine, and now she was pushing him away.

"Max, I'm sorry," Jey said, reaching out to her. "I didn't mean to hurt you. I just need some space to figure things out."

But Maxine was having none of it. She turned her back on him and walked away, leaving Jey standing alone in the gym.

As he watched her go, Jey felt a sense of loss and uncertainty. He had never intended to hurt Maxine, but now he realized that he had been unhappy in their relationship for a long time.

Jey walked back to his hotel, his mind racing with thoughts about what had just happened with Maxine. He couldn't believe she had walked out on him like that, leaving him feeling guilty and unsure of what to do next.

As he stepped into the elevator, Jey couldn't help but wonder if he had made a mistake. Had he been too harsh on Maxine? Should he have just ignored her jealousy and possessiveness?

The elevator doors opened, and Jey made his way to his room, feeling a mix of emotions. He was relieved to be away from the drama with Maxine, but at the same time, he felt guilty for hurting her.

As he flopped onto the bed, Jey couldn't help but think about Rhea. He had always thought of her as just a friend, but now he was starting to wonder if there was something more between them.

Jey sighed, feeling frustrated and confused. He didn't know what he wanted, and he didn't know what to do next.Jey sat on his hotel bed, staring at his phone as he debated whether or not to text Maxine. He had been taking some time to himself to figure out what he wanted, but he couldn't shake off the feeling of guilt and hurt from their last conversation.

Finally, he decided to reach out to her. He typed out a message and hesitated for a moment before hitting send.

"Hey Maxine, I just wanted to apologize again for what happened at the gym. I know I hurt you, and I'm sorry for that. I've been thinking a lot about our conversation, and I realize I wasn't being fair to you. You deserve better than me, and I'm sorry for not being the partner you needed."

Jey waited anxiously for Maxine's response, his heart racing with anticipation. He wasn't sure what he was hoping for, but he knew he needed to make things right with her.

As Jey waited for Maxine's response, his phone suddenly rang, and he saw her name on the caller ID. He hesitated for a moment before answering, unsure of what to expect.

"Hey," Jey said, trying to sound casual.

"Hey," Maxine replied, her voice sounding mixture of hurt and anger. "I got your text."

Jey sighed, feeling a pang of guilt. "I just wanted to apologize, Maxine. I know I hurt you, and I'm sorry for that."

There was a pause on the other end of the line, and Jey could sense the tension building. "You think a simple apology will fix everything, Jey?" Maxine's voice was laced with venom. "You think you can just walk all over me and then apologize when you're done?"

Jey felt a pang of regret and shame. He knew he had been wrong to treat Maxine the way he did, and he was willing to do whatever it took to make things right.

"Maxine, I know I was wrong. I was scared and confused, and I didn't know how to handle my feelings. But I want to make things right between us. I care about you, and I want to work through this together."

There was another pause, and Jey could sense the wheels turning in Maxine's head. He held his breath, waiting for her response.

Jey continued to talk, trying to convince Maxine to give him another chance. "Maxine, I know I messed up, but I promise to do better. I'll be more open and honest with you, and I'll work on my communication skills. I care about you so much, and I don't want to lose you."

There was a long pause, and Jey could sense the silence on the other end of the line. He started to feel anxious, wondering if he had said something wrong.

"Maxine, are you there?" Jey asked, his voice laced with concern.

Finally, Maxine spoke up, her voice firm and resolute. "I'm here, Jey. But I need some time to think about everything. I can't just forgive and forget what happened. I need to think about whether I can really trust you again."

Jey felt a pang of disappointment, but he knew he had to respect Maxine's boundaries. "I understand, Maxine. Take all the time you need. I'll be waiting for your decision."

There was another pause, and then Maxine spoke up again. "I'll contact you when I'm ready to talk. Until then, goodbye, Jey."

The line went dead, and Jey was left feeling uncertain and anxious. He had no idea what Maxine was thinking, and he couldn't help but wonder if he had lost her forever.

Jey lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling as tears streamed down his face. He couldn't believe what was happening. He had never felt this way before, so lost and uncertain.

"Why did I do this?" Jey thought to himself, his voice shaking with emotion. "Why did I push Maxine away? I was so stupid, so blind."

Jey's mind flashed back to all the times he had hurt Maxine, all the times he had taken her for granted. He thought about how she had always been there for him, supporting him and loving him, and how he had repaid her by being selfish and careless.

"I don't deserve her," Jey thought, his heart heavy with regret. "I don't deserve her love and trust."

But as he lay there, Jey couldn't shake off the feeling that his heart was torn. He thought about Rhea, about how she made him feel alive and happy. He thought about the way she smiled at him, the way she laughed at his jokes.

"Rhea," Jey whispered to himself, his heart racing with excitement. "Oh, Rhea."

Jey's mind was a jumble of emotions, torn between his guilt and regret over Maxine and his growing feelings for Rhea. He didn't know what to do, didn't know which way to turn.

"I don't know what's happening to me," Jey thought, his voice laced with confusion. "I don't know what I want."

As the tears continued to fall, Jey couldn't help but wonder what the future held. Would he try to win Maxine back, or would he pursue his feelings for Rhea? Or would he end up losing both of them?

It had been a couple of weeks since Jey's emotional conversation with Maxine. Despite being in the midst of a grueling WWE tour, Jey's mind was elsewhere. The constant traveling, the endless matches, and the incessant noise of the crowds couldn't drown out the echoes of his inner turmoil.

As he lay awake in his hotel room, staring at the ceiling, Jey couldn't shake off the feeling that he was living someone else's life. The glamour of being a WWE superstar, the roar of the crowds, and the thrill of the matches all seemed hollow compared to the emptiness he felt within.

The thought of Rhea lingered in his mind like an uninvited guest. He couldn't help but wonder what could have been if they had taken that chance, if they had explored the connection that had been simmering between them for so long.

The weight of his indecision was crushing him. Jey knew he needed to make a choice, to take control of his life and his heart. As the hours ticked by, he came to a realization - he couldn't keep running from his feelings, from the truth that had been staring him in the face.

With a sense of determination, Jey made the difficult decision to cut the WWE tour short. He would fly home to Pensacola, back to the place where his heart was calling him. The thought of familiar streets, comforting foods, and the warmth of the Florida sun was alluring, but it was Rhea who was the real draw.

Jey's mind was racing with possibilities as he booked his flight. What would happen when he saw Rhea again? Would she feel the same way? Would they finally take that leap of faith and explore the connection that had been building between them?

As Jey packed his bags and bid farewell to his WWE colleagues, he felt a sense of trepidation mixed with excitement. He was taking a risk, leaving the comfort of his professional life behind, but he knew it was necessary. For the first time in a long while, Jey felt like he was being true to himself.

The sound of the plane taking off was music to his ears as Jey soared through the skies, his heart beating with anticipation. He was going home, not just to Pensacola, but to himself.

As the plane touched down on the runway, Jey felt a mix of emotions swirling inside him. Excitement, nervousness, and a hint of uncertainty all battled for dominance as he gathered his belongings and made his way off the plane. The familiar sights and sounds of Pensacola International Airport welcomed him back, a sense of comfort washing over him as he stepped into the warm Florida air.

As he made his way through the terminal, Jey's mind raced with thoughts of Rhea. What would she say when she saw him? Would she be happy to see him, or would she be upset that he had cut his tour short without warning? The questions swirled in his head like a whirlwind, making his stomach twist into knots.

After collecting his luggage, Jey hailed a cab and headed to his destination. The ride was a blur, his thoughts consumed by Rhea and the uncertainty of what lay ahead. As the cab pulled up to his house, Jey's heart skipped a beat. He had no idea what the next few hours would bring, but he was ready to face whatever came his way.

With a deep breath, Jey paid the cab driver and stepped out onto the sidewalk. The warm sunlight and salty air enveloped him, transporting him back to a time when life was simpler, less complicated. He gazed up at his house, the place where he had grown up, and felt a sense of nostalgia wash over him.

As he walked towards the front door, Jey's phone buzzed in his pocket. His heart skipped a beat as he fished it out, hoping against hope that it was Rhea on the other end. But the name on the screen wasn't Rhea's - it was Maxine's.

Jey's heart sank, his mind racing with questions. Why was Maxine calling him now, after he had made the bold decision to leave the tour behind? What did she want? And what would he say to her, when he was so close to taking a chance on Rhea?

Jey's heart was racing as he answered the call, his mind torn between the excitement of being back in Pensacola and the uncertainty of what Maxine wanted. He took a deep breath, trying to compose himself as he pressed the phone to his ear.

"Hey, Maxine," Jey said, his voice cautious.

"Jey, where are you?" Maxine's voice was urgent, laced with a hint of concern.

"I'm back in Pensacola," Jey replied, his tone neutral. "I decided to cut the tour short."

There was a pause on the other end of the line, and for a moment, Jey wondered if the call had dropped.

"Jey, we need to talk," Maxine said, her voice firm. "I don't think you realize what you're doing. You're throwing away your career, your future, for what?"

Jey felt a surge of defensiveness, but he bit his tongue, knowing that Maxine was only trying to protect him.

"I know what I'm doing, Maxine," Jey said, his voice calm. "I need to take care of myself, figure out what I want. I can't keep living someone else's life."

There was another pause, and Jey could almost hear Maxine's frustrated sigh.

"Fine, Jey. But you need to think about the consequences of your actions. You can't just walk away from everything we've worked for."

Jey felt a pang of guilt, but he knew he had made the right decision. He was taking control of his life, and that meant putting his own needs first.

"I'll think about it, Maxine," Jey said, his voice firm. "But for now, I need some time to figure things out."

The line went silent again, and Jey wondered if Maxine was going to hang up on him.

"Jey, be careful," Maxine said finally, her voice softer. "You're not thinking clearly, and I don't want to see you get hurt."

Jey felt a pang of appreciation for Maxine's concern, but he knew he had to follow his heart.

"I will, Maxine," Jey said, his voice sincere. "I promise."

With that, the call ended, leaving Jey feeling both relieved and anxious. He knew he had made the right decision, but he also knew that Maxine's words would linger in his mind, making him question his choices.

As Jey stepped into the familiar warmth of his childhood home, the tension in his body began to ease. The comforting scents of fresh-baked cookies and mom's cooking wafted through the air, enveloping him in a sense of nostalgia. He felt like he was stepping back into a simpler time, one where his biggest worries were what game to play after school or what friends to hang out with.

Jey dropped his bag by the door and made his way to the kitchen, where he knew his mom would be busy preparing dinner. He found her standing at the counter, expertly chopping vegetables for a stir-fry. She looked up, her eyes scanning his face before breaking into a warm smile.

"Jey! You're home early! I wasn't expecting you until next week."

Jey smiled wearily, feeling a weight lift off his shoulders as he hugged his mom tightly. "Hey, Mom. I needed a break. The tour was getting to me."

His mom's expression turned concerned, her eyes narrowing as she studied his face. "You okay, sweetie? You look tired. What's going on?"

Jey hesitated, unsure of how much to reveal. He didn't want to burden his mom with his relationship drama, but he also didn't want to lie to her.

"It's just...complicated, Mom," Jey said, taking a seat at the counter. "I'm figuring some things out, that's all."

His mom nodded understandingly, her eyes filled with empathy. "You know I'm here for you, no matter what, right?"

Jey felt a lump form in his throat as he nodded, feeling grateful for his mom's unwavering support. He knew he could always count on her to be there for him, no matter what.

As they chatted and caught up, Jey's mind began to wander back to Rhea. He couldn't help but wonder what she was doing at that moment, if she was thinking of him too. The possibility of running into her, of rekindling their connection, sent a thrill through his veins.

For the first time in weeks, Jey felt a sense of hope, of possibility. He knew that he still had a long way to go, but being back in Pensacola, surrounded by loved ones and familiar comforts, made him feel like he could finally start to heal, to move forward.

As Jey settled back into his routine, Jimmy couldn't help but notice the subtle changes in his brother's demeanor. Jey had always been a bit of a free spirit, but this time, Jimmy sensed a deeper ache in his eyes, a weight that Jey couldn't quite shake.

At first, Jimmy thought it was just the usual post-tour blues, but as the days went by, he grew increasingly concerned. Jey seemed distant, preoccupied, and the usual spark that lit up his face was dimmer than usual.

One evening, as they sat on the porch, sipping beers and watching the sunset, Jimmy decided to broach the subject.

"Hey, Jey, what's going on, man?" Jimmy asked, his voice laced with concern. "You've been back for a couple of days, and I can tell something's eating at you. What is it?"

Jey hesitated, his eyes drifting away, as if searching for the right words. "It's just...I don't know, Jimmy. I feel lost, I guess. Like I'm stuck in this rut, and I don't know how to get out."

Jimmy's expression softened, his brow furrowing in empathy. "You're talking about the tour, aren't you? About Maxine?"

Jey nodded, his eyes welling up with unshed tears. "Yeah, it's just...I don't know what I want, Jimmy. I don't know who I am without the WWE, without Maxine. And Rhea...oh, man, Jimmy, I don't know what to do about Rhea."

Jimmy listened intently, his expression a mix of concern and understanding. He knew his brother well, and he could tell that Jey was on the cusp of a major breakthrough – or breakdown.

"Listen, Jey," Jimmy said, his voice gentle but firm. "You're going through a tough time, but you're not alone. We're here for you, and we'll get through this together. You need to take some time to figure out what you want, what makes you happy. And if that means stepping away from the WWE, or reevaluating your relationships, then so be it."

Jimmy paused, his eyes locked on Jey's. "But you need to be honest with yourself, bro. You can't keep running from your feelings, from the truth. You need to face whatever demons you're hiding from, and you need to do it now."

Jey nodded, his eyes welling up with tears. He knew Jimmy was right, but the thought of confronting his deepest fears and insecurities was daunting. He took a deep breath, steeling himself for the journey ahead.

"Thanks, Jimmy," Jey said, his voice cracking. "I'll try, man. I'll try to figure it out."

As the sun dipped below the horizon, Jimmy wrapped an arm around Jey's shoulder, holding him close in a tight, brotherly hug.

"We'll get through this, bro," Jimmy whispered. "Together."

With a newfound sense of determination and clarity, Jey made his way to Rhea and Roman's home, his heart racing with anticipation. He had spent the past few days reflecting on his feelings, and he knew it was time to take a chance on love.

As he arrived at their house, Jey asked Rhea if he could speak with her privately. Rhea agreed, and they stepped outside into the quiet evening air.

"Rhea, I needed to talk to you about something," Jey said, his voice low and serious. "I've been thinking a lot about us, about how I feel when we're together. I realize now that I have feelings for you, romantic feelings."

Rhea's expression turned soft, her eyes filled with empathy. "Jey, I care about you deeply, but I don't feel the same way. You're an amazing guy, and I value our friendship so much. But for me, it's just friendship."

Jey felt a pang of disappointment, but he knew he had to respect Rhea's feelings. He nodded, trying to process the information.

"Thank you for being honest with me, Rhea. You mean a lot to me, and I value our friendship too."

Just then, Roman appeared at the door, his expression darkening as he overheard the tail end of their conversation. "What's going on here?" he asked, his voice firm.

Rhea turned to Roman, her hands up in a calming gesture. "Roman, I can explain –"

But Roman cut her off, his eyes fixed on Jey. "You're telling me that you have feelings for my girlfriend?" he asked, his voice rising.

Jey felt a surge of defensiveness, but he knew he had to stay calm. "Roman, I just needed to be honest with Rhea. I didn't mean to cause any problems."

Roman's expression turned cold, his eyes glinting with anger. "You need to leave, Jey. Now."

Rhea stepped forward, her voice firm. "Roman, that's not necessary –"

But Roman cut her off, his tone brooking no argument. "I said now, Jey. You need to respect our boundaries."

Jey knew he had overstayed his welcome. He nodded, feeling a sense of regret and disappointment. "I'm sorry, Roman. I'll leave."

With a heavy heart, Jey turned and left, knowing that he had taken a risk and it hadn't paid off. He couldn't help but wonder if he had made a mistake, if he had misread the situation entirely.

As he drove away, Jey couldn't shake off the feeling that he had just seen the end of a friendship, one that he had valued dearly.

Jey pulled into the driveway of his childhood home, the familiar sight of the old oak tree and the worn wooden fence a comforting presence. But as he turned off the engine and sat in the silence, the weight of the conversation with Roman and Rhea came crashing down on him.

He felt like he had been punched in the gut, like all the air had been sucked out of him. The tears he had been holding back finally broke free, streaming down his face as he sobbed uncontrollably.

Jey didn't try to fight it, didn't try to hold it back. He just let it all out, the pain and the sadness and the frustration pouring out of him in great, wracking sobs.

He thought about how he had risked everything, how he had put himself out there and been rejected. He thought about how Roman had looked at him, with anger and distrust in his eyes. He thought about how Rhea had looked at him, with pity and sympathy.

Jey's body shook with the force of his sobs, his chest heaving as he gasped for air. He felt like he was drowning in his own tears, like he was suffocating under the weight of his emotions.

As the tears finally began to subside, Jey sat back in his seat, exhausted and drained. He wiped his face with the back of his hand, feeling like he had lost a part of himself.

He sat there for a long time, the only sound the quiet ticking of the engine. He didn't know what to do, didn't know where to go from here. He just sat, lost and alone, surrounded by the familiar comforts of his childhood home.

Jey walked into the house, his eyes still puffy and red from crying. He tried to composed himself, but it was no use. His mom, who was busy cleaning the living room, noticed the state of his eyes and immediately stopped what she was doing.

"Jey, what's wrong?" she asked, concern etched on her face. "You've been crying."

Jey tried to brush it off, but his mom wouldn't let him. She walked over to him and wrapped her arms around him, holding him close.

"Hey, it's okay," she said. "You can tell me what's wrong. I'm here for you."

Jey hesitated for a moment, but then the dam broke again. He started to cry, sobbing uncontrollably as he poured out his heart to his mom.

She listened patiently, holding him close and stroking his hair. She didn't say a word, just let him talk and cry until he was all out of tears.

When Jey finally calmed down, his mom led him to the couch and sat down beside him. She took his hand in hers and looked him straight in the eye.

"Jey, I know you're hurting right now," she said. "But you need to know that you're not alone. I'm here for you, and I'll support you no matter what. You don't have to go through this alone."

Jey felt a wave of gratitude towards his mom. He knew she was right, and he was grateful to have her in his life.

"Thanks, Mom," he said, his voice still shaking. "I don't know what I would do without you."

His mom smiled and hugged him tight. "You'll never have to find out, sweetie," she said. "I'll always be here for you."

Jey's phone buzzed in his pocket, breaking the silence of the afternoon. He pulled it out and saw a text from Rhea:

"Hey Jey, I wanted to reach out and talk to you about what happened earlier. I feel really bad about how things went down with Roman. Can we talk?"

Jey's heart skipped a beat as he read the message. He had been thinking about Rhea all day, wondering what she was thinking and feeling. He hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to say or do.

But then he took a deep breath and decided to respond. He typed out a message and sent it:

"Hey Rhea, yeah I'd like to talk. I've been thinking about everything a lot today. What did you want to say?"

Jey waited anxiously for her response, his mind racing with possibilities. What did Rhea want to say? Was she going to apologize for Roman's behavior? Or was she going to explain why she didn't feel the same way about him?

The wait was agonizing, but finally, Rhea responded:

"I'm really sorry about how Roman reacted, Jey. He was totally out of line. And as for me...I care about you deeply, but I just don't feel the same way romantically. I hope we can still be friends?"

Jey's heart sank as he read the message. He had hoped that Rhea might have changed her mind, that she might have realized she felt the same way about him. But it seemed like that wasn't the case.

He took a deep breath and decided to respond, trying to be gracious and understanding:

"Hey Rhea, thanks for reaching out and apologizing. I appreciate it. And yeah, I'd like to still be friends. I value our friendship and I don't want this to come between us."

Jey sent the message and waited for Rhea's response, feeling a sense of closure and acceptance wash over him. He knew it wasn't what he had hoped for, but he was determined to move on and focus on the positive things in his life. Rhea responded a few minutes later:

"Aww, thank you, Jey. I'm really glad we can still be friends. You mean a lot to me, and I don't want this to come between us either. Let's catch up soon?"

Jey smiled as he read the message, feeling a sense of relief and gratitude towards Rhea. He was glad that they could still be friends, and he looked forward to catching up with her soon.

"Sounds good to me, Rhea! Let's catch up soon. Take care, and talk to you soon," Jey responded.

With that, Jey felt like he could finally start to move on from the situation. He realized that he had been holding onto hope that Rhea would feel the same way about him, but now he knew that it wasn't meant to be.

Jey decided to focus on the positive things in his life, like his family and friends who cared about him. He was grateful for the support of his mom and brother, and he knew that they would always be there for him.

As he lay in bed that night, Jey felt a sense of peace wash over him. He knew that he would be okay, and that he would come out of this situation even stronger and wiser.

The next morning, Jey woke up feeling refreshed and renewed. He knew that he still had a lot to work through, but he was ready to face whatever challenges came his way.

Jey spent the day doing things that made him happy, like playing with his dog and watching his favorite TV shows. He also made plans to hang out with his friends and family, knowing that being around the people he loved would help him heal and move on.

As the days went by, Jey started to feel like himself again. He was still a little sore from the situation with Rhea, but he was determined to focus on the positive and move forward.

Jey knew that he would always care about Rhea, but he also knew that he deserved someone who felt the same way about him. He was ready to put himself out there and take risks again, knowing that the right person would come along when the time was right.

With a newfound sense of confidence and determination, Jey continued on his journey, ready to face whatever life threw his way.

Rhea's POV(after Jey told her he had feelings for her)

Roman's eyes narrowed as he glared at me. "You're telling me that Jey has feelings for you?" he spat.

I took a deep breath and tried to remain calm. "Roman, I'm just telling you what happened. He confessed his feelings to me, and I told him I didn't feel the same way."

Roman's face turned red with rage. "And you're just going to sit there and let him confess his feelings to you? What were you thinking, Rhea?"

"I wasn't thinking anything, Roman," I said, trying to defend myself. "He just told me how he felt, and I was honest with him about my feelings."

Roman's anger only grew. "You should have told him to back off, Rhea. You should have made it clear that you're taken."

I sighed, feeling frustrated. "Roman, I didn't lead him on. I told him the truth, and now he knows where we stand."

But Roman wouldn't let up. "You're still friends with him, aren't you? You're still going to hang out with him and talk to him?"

I nodded, feeling a sense of defiance. "Yes, Roman, I am still friends with Jey. And I'm not going to stop being friends with him just because you're threatened by his feelings for me."

Roman's face turned purple with rage. "I'm not threatened by him, Rhea. I'm just concerned about our relationship and how you're conducting yourself."

I stood up, feeling angry and hurt. "Our relationship is fine, Roman. And I'm conducting myself just fine, thank you very much. You're the one who's being irrational and jealous."

Roman's eyes flashed with anger, and he took a step towards me. "You need to watch yourself, Rhea. You need to remember who you're with."

I felt a surge of fear as Roman's hand raised, and I knew I had to get out of there before things escalated further. I turned and ran, determined to escape the toxic situation.

I ran out of the room, tears streaming down my face as I slammed the door behind me. I couldn't believe that Roman had threatened me like that. I felt scared and trapped, and I knew I had to get away from him.

I ran to my car, fumbling for my keys as I tried to unlock the door. My heart was racing, and my mind was racing with thoughts of how I could escape this situation.

As I drove away from the house, I felt a sense of relief wash over me. I was finally free from Roman's toxic behavior, and I was determined to never go back.

I drove to Jey's childhood home, my heart still racing with fear and anxiety. I knew that Jey was the only one who could help me now, and I was grateful for his presence in my life.

I knocked on the door, hoping that Jey would answer quickly. When he did, I fell into his arms, tears streaming down my face as I told him everything that had happened.

Jey listened attentively, his face filled with concern and anger as he heard about Roman's behavior. He held me close, whispering words of comfort and reassurance as I cried.

As we sat there, I knew that I had made the right decision. I was finally free from Roman's toxicity, and I was grateful to have Jey by my side to support me.

I took a deep breath and looked up at Jey, feeling a sense of peace and gratitude. "Thank you, Jey," I said, my voice shaking with emotion. "Thank you for being here for me."

Jey smiled and hugged me tight. "Always, Rhea. I'll always be here for you." 

The next day, I was still shaken by the events of the previous night. I was grateful to have Jey by my side, and I knew that I could count on him to protect me from Roman's toxic behavior.

But just as I was starting to feel more at ease, I heard a knock at the door. I froze, my heart racing as I wondered who it could be.

Jey got up to answer the door, and when he opened it, I saw Roman standing there, looking contrite and apologetic.

"Rhea, I'm so sorry," Roman said, his voice filled with regret. "I was wrong to threaten you like that. Can we talk?"

I hesitated, unsure of what to do. Part of me wanted to forgive Roman and try to make things right between us, but another part of me was scared of his continued toxic behavior.

Jey, however, was not pleased. "Roman, you need to leave," he said, his voice firm and authoritative. "Rhea doesn't want to talk to you right now."

Roman looked at Jey, his eyes flashing with anger. "This is none of your business, Jey," he said.

But I intervened, placing a reassuring hand on Jey's arm. "It's okay, Jey," I said. "I can handle this."

Jey looked at me uncertainly, but I nodded firmly. "I'll talk to Roman," I said. "But I want you to stay here, just in case."

Jey nodded reluctantly and sat back down, his eyes fixed on Roman with a wary gaze.

I took a deep breath and stepped outside, Roman following close behind."Roman, I don't know what you're doing here," I said, trying to keep my voice firm and steady. "You threatened me last night, and now you're apologizing? I don't think I can just forgive and forget that easily."

Roman looked at me, his eyes filled with regret. "I know I was wrong, Rhea. I was out of line, and I'm truly sorry for what I did. I promise it will never happen again."

I looked at him skeptically. "How can I trust you, Roman? You've been getting more and more controlling and possessive over the past few weeks. I don't know if I can just ignore that and pretend everything is okay."

Roman took a step closer to me, his hands extended in a pleading gesture. "Rhea, please. I know I messed up, but I love you. I want to make it right between us."

I hesitated, unsure of what to do. Part of me still cared about Roman, and part of me wanted to believe that he could change. But another part of me was scared, and I didn't know if I could trust him again.

Just as I was about to respond, Jey stepped out of the house, his eyes fixed on Roman with a warning gaze. "Rhea, are you okay?" he asked, his voice firm and protective.

I nodded, feeling a surge of gratitude towards Jey. "Yeah, I'm fine, Jey. Thanks for checking in."

Jey nodded, his eyes never leaving Roman's face. "Good. Because if you're not okay, Roman, then we're going to have a problem."

Roman looked at Jey, his eyes flashing with anger, but I knew that Jey was right. I needed someone to protect me, and Jey was willing to do just that.

I took a deep breath and made a decision. "Roman, I need some time to think. I don't know if I can forgive you right now, or if I even want to try."

Roman looked at me, his face falling. "Okay, Rhea. I understand. But please, don't give up on us just yet."

I nodded, feeling a sense of closure. "I'll think about it, Roman. But for now, I need some space."

With that, Roman nodded and left, leaving me feeling relieved but also uncertain about what the future held.

I walked back inside, sighing heavily as I collapsed onto the couch. Jey followed me, his concerned expression a reminder that he was still worried about me.

"Hey, are you okay?" he asked, sitting down beside me.

I nodded, feeling a sense of defeat. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just... confused, I guess."

Jey nodded sympathetically. "You don't have to be confused, Rhea. You know what's best for you. You just need to trust yourself."

I looked at him, feeling a pang of gratitude. "You're right, Jey. I just... I don't know if I'm ready to give up on Roman yet. We've been together for so long, and I thought we were happy."

Jey's expression softened. "Rhea, you deserve to be happy. If Roman's not making you happy, then maybe it's time to reevaluate the relationship."

I nodded, feeling a sense of uncertainty. "I know. It's just... I love him, Jey. Or at least, I thought I did."

Jey's eyes filled with compassion. "Rhea, you don't have to love someone who hurts you. You deserve better than that."

I looked at him, feeling a sense of tears pricking at the corners of my eyes. "You're right, Jey. I deserve better than Roman."

Jey nodded, his arms opening wide. "Then come here, Rhea. Let me hold you and remind you that you're worth so much more than Roman's toxic behavior."

I nodded, feeling a sense of relief wash over me as I leaned into Jey's embrace. For the first time in weeks, I felt like I could finally breathe again.

I heard u make CM Punk action figures/dolls… do u use an actual doll as base? How does it work? Just curious

Right now I’m only focused on customizing wrestling action figures. Mostly I’ve used the AEW supreme CM Punk action figures for the customs due to the ability to change different trunks for same figure.

I also used a WWE ultimate Seth Rollins body for one but that turned out to be way more difficult to customize than the AEW figures.

I used the torso cracking hack to get the pants off so I can remove the paint even from under the torso.

This is the ultimate body which will be a custom of when CM Punk dressed up as Jeff Hardy

Here is his head:

I used a 3D printed head sculpt I bought from one custom figure head maker who stopped selling and sold all their files to another seller.

An issue with wanting 3D head sculpts to is that the makers often don’t make many different expressions for a same wrestler. Usually only different hairstyles

To combat this and to have many changeable heads for one of my customs, I bought a second supreme punk with all of his accessories (I have three Punk supremes. One is just for my collection and one was without any accessories to just to do a simple custom)

With these supreme heads, I have to shave the head sculpt a little bit with a crafting knife and then use epoxy clay or any clay that you don’t need to bake in an oven.

I use epoxy type clay called green stuff that is meant for sculpting on miniatures. I found it from a local comic and fantasy game store

Sculpting with it is very hard due to it being sticky and hardening pretty fast

These are two different sculpts and neither of them is fully done. The top ones front hair is maybe done if I don’t decide ripping it off

Here’s pictures of two of the trunks I’ve painted already

And here you can also see how the chest plate is bare. Due to me not having proper acetone (I hate Finland for making getting full acetone hard) it’s way harder to get the tattoos off. So I’ve mixed a paint to match the figure’s skin to cover up the chest tattoos.

I used the same paint to clean out the arms here for my summer of punk 2005 custom and painted on the tattoos.

Also yes! I did try and make a doll of Punk but due to it being my first try, I gave up. He had a sculpted head and felt body but I didn’t have good felt nor my sowing machine was good, so that also made me give up.

I’m sure I’ll go back to that once I get a sowing machine and make soft goods clothing for the Punk as Jeff custom

✨Apologies for an insane explanation of how I customize wrestling figures. I’ll happily show the figures when done and will take photos of them✨

The First Annual WrestleMania Week 2024 Awards

The most interesting parts of WrestleMania Week 2024 were, as usual, in the shows that took place around Philadelphia this year. Though I didn't travel to Philadelphia for the shows, I tried to craft a path that covered as many of the most interesting shows that streamed as possible.

To start, let's acknowledge the shows that I was able to watch:

DEFY Wrestling: Can't Deny It

STARDOM: American Dream 2024 in the Keystone State

GCW Presents Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport X

The first half of the Mark Hitchcock Memorial Supershow

ACTION Wrestling & Segunda Caida: DEAN~!!

Jersey Championship Wrestling: JCW & GCW vs. The World

ROH Supercard of Honor 2024

CMLL Super Viernes (April 5, 2024)

Let's also provide the caveats on the shows that were on my radar that I was not able to watch due to timing conflicts:

The second half of the Mark Hitchcock Memorial Supershow

DDT Pro-Wrestling: DDT Goes Philadelphia

Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling: LIVE in Philly

Wrestling REVOLVER & Hog of Glory Wrestling

Game Changer Wrestling: Joey Janela's Spring Break 8

Expect the Unexpected: Unlock the Unexpected - ETU vs. Dragongate

The call to promoters who schedule shows around major AEW and WWE shows: I understand the need to schedule around those shows. I suspect the desire to competing against WWE SmackDown, ROH Supercard of Honor, WrestleMania XL Nights One and Two forced promoters to focus on Thursday night as the premier evening option of WrestleMania Week 2024. The point of the weekend is, presumably, to make money via ticket sales and through the streaming sales that a company would make. Forcing customers to choose your show over competing options limits the ticket and streaming sales and exposure that your company can get that week.

On Thursday night, I was able to give the Hitchcock Memorial Supershow about an hour of undivided attention before I switched to focus on DEAN~!!. I missed the DDT show completely, and given the pace of WrestleMania Week and wrestling in general, I will most likely never watch DDT's show (or any other show that I had to skip due to time conflict). That means that I won't even have the chance to forget about the widely praised KONOSUKE TAKESHITA vs. Shunma Katsumata and Mike Bailey vs. Yuki Ueno matches because I won't ever watch them. Had DDT's show taken place on Friday afternoon, it would have received undivided attention and possibly better ticket sales and more views on WrestleUniverse.

With that said, here are my reflections on this year's WrestleMania Week in the form of my supremely prestigious awards.

The "Best Pure Vibes" Award: ACTION Wrestling & Segunda Caida: DEAN~!!

I visited the Death Valley Driver Video Review Message Board fairly regularly when I was younger, but I never created an account or tried to participate because it seemed too intimidating. My horizons broadened by reading discussions and reviews on Segunda Caida, but I never felt like I had anything worthwhile to add because my wrestling viewing was limited to some syndicated WWF shows, some ECW, and mostly WWF and WCW. Nonetheless, I recognized the name "Dean Rasmussen" in the message board and SC reviews, and I was sorry to hear of his passing. DEAN~!! was held in Rasmussen's honor, and it was probably my favorite show of the week. It had a vision, and that vision was felt in the eclectic mix of matches on the card, the exuberant commentary from Dylan Hales and John Mosely. Wrestling promoters and fans will sometimes defend nonsensical character development and plots, cringeworthy comedy, and substandard wrestling by claiming that wrestling shows have to feel uneven because they're variety shows that offer a little something to everyone. DEAN~!! felt like a repudiation of that defense, a counterargument that wrestling itself can provide that buffet without relying on the tired tropes that companies trot out when they refuse to think of anything better.

These are a few of my favorite things from DEAN~!!:

Colby Corino's setup for and commitment to the headlock gimmick. He was a busy and tired man, so he tried to win using the basic move in his arsenal. That went fine for him until Alex Kane was able to use his dedication to working smarter, not harder against him. The match combined comedy and action very well, and it's forced me to re-evaluate my impression of Corino from the days when he ran with Eddie Kingston, Joe Gacy, and Shane Strickland in Evolve as The Unwanted.

O'Shay Edwards for ending the match with a moonsault. When a man as large as Edwards lands on you, the match should be over, and it was, which meant that the match ended at the right time.

The Ugly Ducklings and Violence Is Forever for giving the crowd an unexpected sprint.

Tom Lawlor for his reticence to touch the disgusting, bloodstained canvas that was used for his match with One Called Manders against the Coven of the Goat. I wouldn't want to either.

Dr. Cerebro for having some of the best looking gear that I saw all weekend. The key details are the exposed brain and glasses sewn on his mask.

Avery Good, the IWTV Championship Committee, and ACTION for commissioning a slightly larger IWTV Independent World Championship belt. It's a good bit.

Krule and Jake Parnell for surpassing my low expectations for their match. It was overbooked, but it was overbooked in a good way, and Krule impressed the most since the show where he emerged from a cornfield.

Arez for being such an odd fellow. Master of the Strange Style indeed had a match with Chikara alumnus Matt Makowski that exceeded my expectations.

Slim J for refusing to go gentle into that good night. He and Adam Priest ripped off an exciting match days after Slim J was released from AEW, and it hopefully makes promoters reflect on how they misused someone this talented.

Marcus Mathers for making me reevaluate my opinion after writing him off as a scramble flippy guy.

Demus and Mad Dog Connelly for unleashing violence and mayhem. Connelly started the match by snapping the chain and hitting Demus with it, and he upped the ante by punching Demus with chain-wrapped fists.

Daniel Makabe and Timothy Thatcher for rewarding the attention that I was forced to pay their match due to their style. Grappling-focused matches don't have obvious moments of excitement for most viewers, so you're forced to watch closely for small shifts in angle and advantage. Makabe and Thatcher had a match where I felt like the attention that I paid to them after a long day of watching wrestling was worth the effort.

The "But Now You Have My Attention" Award: The Sovereign/Sinner & Saint

My major takeaway from DEFY's Can't Deny It was the fast-paced and tightly executed work from Judas Icarus, Travis Williams, and Evan Rivers in their match against the Dragongate team (more on one of them later) and C4XKC. Icarus and Williams, as Sinner & Saint truly caught my attention in their match against Marcus Mathers and Austin Luke at DEAN~!!, and I'll peek in on what they'll do in TNA now that they're signed there.

The "Champagne Problems" Award: Mariah May

In the grand scope, AEW's insistence on continuing with Timeless Toni won't determine whether they sign a profitable TV deal or whether their ticket sales or TV ratings will reach new heights or depths. On a personal level, the combination of Timeless Toni and the Brochachos drove me away from AEW, and it took months before I could trust the company to not focus so heavily on crappy content. I'm willing to stomach a few minutes of Timeless Toni every week in recognition that nothing can be perfect. Nonetheless, watching Mariah May wrestle with Mina Shirakawa and Xia Brookside against Mayu Iwatani, Momo Kohgo, and Tam Nakano at STARDOM's show and against Kohgo during the ROH Zero Hour preshow highlighted how fresh and exciting she feels and how tired and mortifying watching Toni Storm play Timeless Toni feels.

The "Indifference Is Worse Than Hate" Award: Shun Skywalker

I gave Dragongate a chance to capture my heart in 2023, and it failed to attach. So, I wanted to give Dragongate another chance in a setting that piqued my interest in Dragon Gate back in 2006. Instead, the Dragongate team of Kzy, Shun Skywalker, and Ho Ho Lun seemed to disappear during their match in the DEFY show. I had hoped that it was an aberration, but the Dragongate group of YAMATO, Dragon Kid, and Shun Skywalker underwhelmed in the tag match against Los Desperados in JCW & GCW vs. The World. Then, the whole Dragongate group had an underwhelming performance in the much hyped match against Team CMLL during the Hitchcock Memorial Supershow. I want to give them one more chance with the ETU vs. Dragongate show, but the Dragongate showing this trip did not inspire me to give the company another chance in 2024.

The "Half-Hearted Efforts Produce Half-Hearted Results" Award: ROH Supercard of Honor 2024

Crowning Mark Briscoe as the ROH World Champion on the anniversary of his brother's ascension should have felt triumphant. Instead, it felt perfunctory, which seems deeply wrong. Other than the knowledge that it was Jay Briscoe's championship anniversary, viewers received no cues for the emotional stakes of the match, and pitting Mark Briscoe against fan favorite Eddie Kingston seemed misguided.

The "That Sure Is A Decision That You Can Make" Award: Syuri, Masha Slamovich, JCW, GCW

I was looking forward to Syuri vs. Masha Slamovich at JCW & GCW vs. The World when it was announced, and it was one of the matches that kept me going through the fatigue from the grueling activity of watching wrestling for hours on end on Thursday. My spirit deflated when ring announcer Emil Jay announced a 30 minute time limit for the match since he announced no time limit for the other matches on the show. It was also billed as a JCW Championship match, and since Syuri wasn't going to win the title from Slamovich this weekend, my expectations joined my spirit in a state of deflation. The fact that they wrestled to a 30 minute time limit draw at 1:00 am Eastern in front of a listless crowd probably contributed to my dissatisfaction with the match; it felt like a slowly paced collection of moves rather than a coherent story told through the medium of professional wrestling.

The Best Match of the Weekend, Leyenda Division: Bryan Danielson vs. Blue Panther

Bryan Danielson is my favorite wrestler, and I've greatly enjoyed his post-WWE run. He's made it clear for years to anyone who would listen that he greatly admired Blue Panther and wanted desperately to wrestle him, and we were served an appetizer when they faced each other at CMLL Homenaje A Dos Leyendas 2024 on March 29. We got the full course when Danielson and Panther wrestled at Super Viernes on April 5, and it was what I, as a Danielson fan, would have wanted from this match. Both men defied age and expectations and challenged each other's technical skills and indomitable wills. Danielson tried to play rudo by hitting the aged Panther with brutal kicks and dives and by showing off with the Santo Escape several times, but Danielson is too delightful for any attendee at Arena Mexico on April 5 to truly despise.

The Best Match of the Weekend, Non-Leyenda Division

The finalists are:

World of Stardom Championship: Maika (c) vs. Megan Bayne (STARDOM: American Dream 2024 in the Keystone State)

Fuminori Abe vs. Takuya Nomura (GCW Presents Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport X)

Matt Makowski vs. Charlie Dempsey (GCW Presents Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport X)

Slim J vs. Adam Priest (ACTION Wrestling & Segunda Caida: DEAN~!!)

Daniel Makabe vs. Timothy Thatcher (ACTION Wrestling & Segunda Caida: DEAN~!!)

Dog Collar Match: Mad Dog Connelly vs. Demus el Demonio (ACTION Wrestling & Segunda Caida: DEAN~!!)

Jordan Oliver vs. Aigle Blanc (JCW & GCW vs. The World)

Limited to what I saw, my pick is Connelly vs. Demus, which was the most fun of these great matches. I was hooting and hollering as they bludgeoned each other with garbage cans, chained fists, and possibly fans, and the experience was heightened by the very game crowd at DEAN~!!.

My second pick would be Maika vs. Megan Bayne, which featured a great story of Maika, usually the bully, finding herself unable to bully the bigger and stronger Bayne. Maika's absurd Michinoku Driver from the second rope on Bayne looked absolutely reckless and devastating, and it felt unique among the many watches from the past week.

Here's an overview of my long suffering attempt to create friends for my 2016 SDCC She Ra exclusive by Mattel. A majority of the parts were sourced from WWE Superstars or Wonder Woman Mattel dolls with the heads being factory seconds I sourced online. It's been years since I bought any more and have no idea where to find any more, so a few of the dolls are using heads I casted in resin after copying one of the heads.

I approached this project by trying to turn as many of the toy characters into larger dolls, and I kept to the singular face sculpt as a way to maintain that spirit. I wish I could add some more guys but I used the Superman v Batman Ken doll as the base and that's also a lot harder to find nowadays.

I didn't realise how many I had until I gathered them up so this is gonna be lengthy to cover. I'm just going to go over each as briefly as possible.

She Ra is the 2016 SDCC She Ra doll who started my love for this project. I didn't know much about She Ra but I loved this doll so much I knew I wanted her friends and wanted to have the prototype dolls shown alongside She Ra.

Glimmer uses the default She Ra paint with altered lips and purple hair as I wanted to match the feel of her vintage doll and also I was in love with the prototype doll that used a similar paint job,

Bow is a Superman Ken doll painted to have the reddish brown tone of his vintage toy but with the show style moustache. I really do think the Superman Ken dolls vibe the same way as the She Ra base dolls.

Catra is heavily based on the prototype Catra first seen in 2016. Eventually she would be shown again with a newer headsculpt but since the doll line never progressed I couldn't exactly get a closer copy.

Peekablue has one of my favourite designs with green hair so I really aimed to give her rounded lips and a calm expression.

Mermista came prerooted in this blue nylon and so I decided to lean into her show design with open mouth paint and pulled a lot from the vintage doll for colours.

Frosta was also prerooted in a lighter blue and with a paler skin tone. She's one of the earlier customs so I mainly copied the collector She Ra paint with a blue colour scheme.

Sweet Bee has some of the most unique vintage toy paint so I did a reinterpretation of it rather than borrow from the show. I absolutely love it and her wild permed hair.

Flutterina has darker purple hair than her toy counterpart mostly because I already had two light purpled dolls and Flutterina's show design was arguably more distinct than her toy.

Castaspella had a simple design but it gave me ample opportunity to play with 80s style makeup, which pairs well with her bright red hair.

Netossa was custom dyed to match her darker body. She was one of the few characters with an actual prototype so I didn't stray too far from the design but I did darken her lips.

Spinnerella uses a light purple and hot pink blend. I really like how she turned out as she feels different to Glimmer and Netossa.

Double Trouble uses a custom cast face and she's honestly one of my proudest customs as she retains the head switching gimmick of her toy, and the contrast of the two faces.

Angella was the most normal looking of the group so I felt the 80s style paint would help her feel different too. Surprisingly one of my favourites too.

Perfuma I would argue is the least suited to this sculpt but I still wanted her sweet looking and soft. Her hair is definitely more in line with her toy than the show.

Sea Hawk is a Filmation only creation but I felt like a rooted beard and hair to match was a fun choice, plus it bulked up my collection for male dolls.

Scorpia uses a custom casted head and sculpted extra details. Also being a show only character I debated how "toy" like her design would go but I felt if the She Ra collectors would have gone on, Scorpia would be relatively accurate.

Shadow Weaver is also a Filmation only character so trying to translate her into a doll was difficult. I decided to tackle it like how the action figure people do and gave her a fully sculpted head.

Entrapta's hair is one of the longest reroots I've done and I'm still surprised how well it turned out. Making her glamourous and evil was fun without giving her extreme brows.

Of course without He Man we have no She Ra so I carved down the sculpted hair of Superman Ken and rerooted him, and painted his eyes to match SDCC's She Ra's paint.

Teela was one of the original prototypes shown so she has the default factory paint with red hair instead.

Sorceress breaks the trend by using a shrunken WWE Superstars head. I feel like it's thematic as the vintage toy uses a different face sculpt than the other vintage toys and it adds to her mature look.

Evilyn was easily the worst colour skin tone paint job due to Mattel's current materials but I really wanted a yellow skin Evilyn doll.

Powercon Starburst She Ra is such a beautiful doll that I'm happy that I preordered her. It takes a lot for me to preorder something.

Filmation She Ra is just me trying to get a more cartoon style paint on the doll as I love the clothes that came with the SDCC She Ra and wanted a show accurate doll for it.

Filmation Adora was created for the same reason as She Ra.

Butterflyer is based on the playset toy with the Steffie sculpt and was a bonus character for my collection.

Spirit was a jointed Liv doll horse customised to look like the character from the show but with blue eyes to mimic the toy design.

This blue haired She Ra came prerooted with blue hair and since I love the paint as well I've kept her as is.

I'm incredibly proud to have done as many of these dolls as I could because the Mattel She Ra doll is SO nice, and easily my favourite doll of the 2010s. I'm genuinely sad that the line never got more than two dolls because I felt it had so much potential, especially since I don't feel like She Ra's vintage toy line never gets celebrated in the same way as the show does and I loved how both She Ra dolls celebrated the toy canon as well as the Filmation series.

I've been so preoccupied these past few days that I forgot to post my most recent Danganronpa project!

So, those of you who know me know that I HATE Junko, for various reasons. However, I saw a Pop Funko figure that reminded me of her a few weeks ago, and since I have found I actually quite like customizing Pop Funko figures, I figured I HAD to do it, ha.

She didn't turn out exactly how I wanted, but it's good enough, I think, especially since the original figure had some things that made it hard to fully customize her into Junko, unfortunately. I also did most of this while I was sick with COVID, so I'll blame that on why it's not quite how I wanted, ha.

Here she is! Her hair isn't quite the right color, nor is it as poofy as it is in her sprites, but I did my best. I didn't want to waste too much of my Milliput clay, plus if I added too many more strands it would have been way too top heavy and never would have stood. But as it is, I'm pretty happy with it! I'll post some side and back photos in a read more, as well as some in progress shots. Before that, though, have a picture of all of my Danganronpa figures I've made! I bought the Monokuma, but I figured he could join my others, ha. I originally didn't want Junko with the others, but I don't have anywhere else for her, since she would fall off my dresser where I keep my other figures, and if she falls her hair will unfortunately break.

Here are the side and back shots, as well as a better shot of her hair ties:

Here are some in progress shots. Notice that I originally didn't have her hair as tall, but I realized afterward and added some height. But again, I didn't want to waste too much Milliput or make her too top heavy, so I didn't do as much as I prolly should have. Eh.

Finally, here is a picture of the original figure that I found on Google, which is a WWE wrestler named Alexa Bliss? I've never heard of her, since I'm not into wrestling, but her figure reminded me of Junko, ha. I also added a picture of her after I removed her face, ha.

The ribbons were the hardest to cover with my Milliput, but I think I did it well enough.

Overall I'm pretty happy with how she turned out! Some of the paint job was hard for me, since I'm not super into miniature painting and some of these areas were pretty small (like the bear hair ties, oof. That white bear was surprisingly harder than the black one, for some reason), but it's good enough I'd say. I wish I could have gotten a better pink color, but none of the paint I had would have mixed enough to get her shade of pink. And once I got close enough I was like... yeah that's fine, since I was pretty done by then, ha. I think of all the figures I've customized, she looks least like her inspiration, but eh. I dislike her most, so maybe that's a good thing 😅

2016 Los Angeles California.

Delilah had just turned 16 along with her bestfriend Mira, the two attended a private school together & practically did just about everything with each other, told each other almost everything, except Delilah, often she had the habit of keeping things that should be hidden as secrets, She had just gotten into a relationship with her new boyfriend Matthew who was 17, he was everything as a person that her parents wanted her marry with, Mira hadn’t liked him ever because of how he would seem to be faking a personality to seem like he was the world’s best high-school lover when behind closed doors he was the worst.

He objectified Delilah in ways that made her feel uncomfortable, he often pressured her into doing things she wouldn’t feel comfortable in doing but this one specific time he got angry she didn’t do one of those things, He would corner her in a bathroom no matter where they were & would berate her when she wouldn’t have sex with him because of her dedication to not losing her virginity, “Matthew- I can’t! I—I’m saving myself you knew thi-“ She felt a harsh smack across her face which made her stumble back a little bit and hold her face “Saving yourself my fucking ass! I bet you’re running around like a fucking slut screwing half of the fucking school.” He scolded at her & ripped off her uniform coat in pure anger before grabbing her by the hair and throwing her across the floor of the bathroom “Your useless you know that? Useless! Your honestly lucky to have someone like me Delilah because no other man is going to want to put up this ‘Saving myself for the right moment’ bullshit” he spat on her as she covered her face quickly while her hair was disheveled, “You know how selfish that is??! It’s fucking selfish! You can’t think about anybody else, it’s always what Delilah wants isn’t it?! Well let me tell you very fucking clearly now that I’m all you have I’m the only person that will actually love you and put up with your bullshit because nobody else will, you will NEVER find a man like me and no other man on this planet will want to love something as useless and worthless and fucking stupid like you.” She shook her head fearfully trying to deny all he said but unfortunately that got more of a reaction out of him.

While he didn’t take her virginity he still became violent towards her and made her feel as if that was all she was good for, someone that anybody could take their anger out on, for weeks on end she was shut down, She didn’t know who she could go to, finally she had went to her parents but they ultimately shut her down with ‘Well what do you expect us to do??’ Mira eventually found out because of rumors going around and once Delilah finally opened up she held her in her arms as the girl cried & shook, Mira sat and cleaned up her face and helped cover up bruises that were displayed around her arms and legs including a black eye that Matthew ended up giving her “I need you to know that you are way more than what he makes you out to be Delilah, what he did was a horrible thing and you should’ve never experienced that, You are worth all of the diamonds on earth & more, there is absolutely nothing wrong with saving yourself for whatever reason it is.” She reassured Delilah until Matthew ushered into the women’s restroom “Did you make that goddamn report on me? To the headmaster!?” He shouted while Mira quickly had Delilah get behind her “Yes I did, and it was fucking deserved you sick bastard.” He scoffed “If you put my future at risk You will pay & I’ll make damn sure of it.” He hissed before leaving with panic.

Delilah had a lot of emotional baggage, she wasn’t a sensitive girl, she was deeply wounded internally & never experienced what true love felt like despite her always being a loving girl thinking about people before she thought about herself, she lacked parents that cared & never knew the difference between love or anger. Most things Matthew told her after getting what he wanted was “I love you so much Delilah, I do these things for your own good.” And she unfortunately believed it because she thought he was right. It was for her own good when in reality it was flat out abusive.

Mira sat at the dinner table in Delilah’s house as she visited for the night & heard her parents laughing over 2 weeks ago where Delilah trying to tell them about what had happened with Matthew. Mira grew silent and dropped her fork on the plate & glared “Your joking right? You’re actually fucking joking right? He hurt your fucking daughter and you blew her off and you’re LAUGHING about it? You guys must be the worst fucking parents of America and I truly hope you get what you two sick people deserve in life.” She shouted while Delilah meekly sat there before Mira had her leave the house with her. Deep down Mira knew she would do everything in her power to protect Lilah once she realized she was easy to manipulate and hurt because of her kindness.

November 4th 2023 (Present time)

Delilah sat on the bed tying her shoes while Cody stood in the bathroom getting dressed for the day, since halloween he took notice of her standoff-ish behavior & worried there was something she wasn’t telling him because of how much her walls were up at the moment. Pharaoh scampered into the room and huffed flopping his snout against her ankle while she hummed “Relax Phar’ I’m taking you out now.” She mumbled to the husky before grabbing his leash from Cody’s bedside table that he usually had ready to take Pharaoh on morning jogs. Cody helped put on Pharaohs harness after leaving the bathroom & Lilah stood up hyping their now shared dog up for his walk. Cody nervously cleared his throat & finally spoke up “uh- Before you go, I just need you to know that if there’s anything you haven’t told me yet, I need you to tell me because you’re not your usual you sweetheart and it worries me.” She put on a small smile while shaking her head in protest before walking Pharaoh out of the bedroom and house while Cody watched from the window & eventually called Mira.

“How may I possibly entertain you Cody” she spoke through the phone while he hummed clearly not amused “Delilah’s acting strange after her & I had a private Moment, I know there’s something she isn’t telling me and I know you know it.” Mira stayed silent for a moment as her hand gripped her phone “Cody I don’t even know if it’s my place to tell you what it is.” Cody furrowed his face in slight panic as he listened to her over the phone “She’s not pregnant or anything rig-“ Mira let out a loud cackle through his speakers on the phone “FUCK no? Not that I know of at-least, Look I’ll tell you what she’s not telling you but you have to tell me what you did to fuck up first got it?” Cody sighed pinching the bridge of his nose “Fine, On Halloween during the party she & I were having a moment snd something inside of me sort of snapped, I said some really mean things to her & called her some mean things but then I noticed it upset her and I apologized big time and I’m still making it up to her and since then her walls have been up & she’s more quiet than usual.” Somehow Mira already had a hunch on what he might have said to her because of Delilah’s overall response that is connected to her Highschool relationship.

“Alright I won’t go into to much detail because that’s for Delilah to share, but, When me & Delilah were in high-school in 2016 she had her first boyfriend and his name was Matthew, he was a fucking asshole, when she was saving herself for the right time he freaked on her, called her some names and became violent, he was a horrible person for her and unfortunately, I wish I could tell you everything Cody I do, but it’s not my trauma either. It’s hers. Just be gentle with her.” Mira hung up on Cody while he sat there biting the inside if his cheek before shaking his head and standing up making the bed before he heard the front door open and close followed by Delilah praising pharaoh while he barked in response before she made her way back upstairs and huffed as she took off her sneakers “It’s a little chilly outside!” Cody hummed while walking over towards her and gently sitting her down on the bed. Delilah was a little confused and tilted her head about to speak but he shook his head “Delilah I need you to tell me what you’re hiding from me, I already know about Matthew, somewhat, not a lot, but either way I need you to open up to me baby, I need you to trust me and tell me so I know how I can help you because you haven’t been your usual self since Halloween and I hate that it was my fault.”

Delilah sighed and looked away from a moment but he turned her attention back to his eyes while he raised his eyebrows looking for some sort of response which was her nodding and scooting back “I dated this guy in Highschool, his name was Matthew & at first a lot of things were going smikth and my parents really liked him & wanted me to marry him but eventually he became a horrible person, I told him i was saving my virginity for the right moment and at first he understood but when I kept rejecting on having sex with him. He became angry, it became so bad that one day he cornered me at school got a little violent & had told me things like No other person would put up with me the way he does or whatever he was yelling about called me a slut a couple of times, told me he got violent out of love because it’s what I needed out of discipline, Said I was to stupid for a man to love me the way he does, I told my parents but they blew me off so Mira had took the situation up to the headmaster of the private school we attended & it resulted in him getting expelled.” Cody listened thoroughly & paid a lot of attention before letting out a hefty sigh and pushing away ang stray hairs displayed on her face “Sweetheart I wish you would’ve told me sooner otherwise I wouldn’t have jumped out of your comfort zone and go overboard the way I did” Delilah shrugged her shoulders and played with his hair a bit “Why don’t we make a safe-word? For you okay, just incase I get out of line over anything or if you’re too overwhelmed or overstimulated, hm?” Delilah smiled shyly and nodded with agreement

“Daisy.” He hummed at her response and nodded “Daisy hm? Okay sweetheart Daisy it is, And just for the record sweetheart everything he said to you isn’t true whatsoever ever, I love you more than every single thing in the universe combined & he is absolutely wrong on everything, You’re a goddamn genius , you’re one of the most intelligent girls I know Delilah & He’s a goddamn moron for loosing a treasure like you but I’m more than grateful that he did because you’re safe, you wormed your way into my life & I’m beyond grateful for you.” She smiled softly at his words and kissed the tip of his nose “I love you Cody.” He smiled and shook his head “I love you more angel.”

Since then Cody & Delilah resolved things and grew even closer than usual, Cody was sitting in the kitchen with his laptop on the counter while staring at flight tickets to go up into Aspen Colorado as a Holiday vacation in mid December since he & Mira were planning something special for Delilah. Kinsley got home from school after taking the bus and Lilah was upstairs watching a movie taking a nap, Cody heard Kinsleys footsteps and grinned as he grabbed the star shaped sandwich he made for her as a snack from the fridge “Is that you monkey?” She giggled snd tossed her book bag onto a chair “Cody!!” He grinned crouching down quickly to do their little secret handshake followed by a hug “How was school today huh? Learn anything new?” Kinsley shrugged as she took her sandwich “I learned about how crystals are formed by the speed of their growth! Slow growing crystals become super duper big! & fast growing crystals become super tiny!” Cody gasped in disbelief “Look at you being a little scientist! If I didn’t know any better I’d say you’re better than bill nye himself.”

She grinned while nodding her head and scampering off upstairs while Cody was being called by Mira “Your favorite person ever how may I possibly assist you today?” Mira scoffed over the phone “Shut-up Cody, anyway, did you get the ring?” He smiled “Yeah I got it, It’s well hidden where she can’t find it, I already rented out the cabin for us all to stay at, same with the little resort place up in the snow, everything id settled I’m just about to buy your guys’ flight tickets now.” She hummed in approval over the speakers “Perfect, Logan & I just left a dress shop & got her a long feathery sleeved dress followed with heels in her size that I’ll surprise her with.” Cody heard Logan complain about wanting to leave in the background “Your still with that asshole?” Mira huffed in embarrassment “Yeah well..Can’t really back out just yet.” He nodded as if she were to see “I guess your right, it’s a little entertaining watching Randy bitch about it everyday, anyways, I’m going to hang up now so I can wake up Lilah, I’ll call you later.” With that he hung up and flopped his phone on the counter and shut his laptop.

Cody quietly went upstairs into their shared bedroom and smiled as he saw Lilah snuggling with pharaoh under the blankets while the movie had just ended, Cody climbed his way onto the bed and ran his hand down her arm softly “Baby..c’mon Angel It’s time to wake up.” He smiled at her huffs and grunts in protest but he played with her hair “You need to get up baby it’s already 3:40 if you stay asleep you’re gonna pull an all Nighter again by mistake.” She huffed stirring a bit until she forced herself to sit up “There’s my girl.” He teased before giving her a gentle kiss & fixing her ponytail “5 more minu-“ He shook his head chuckling “None of that, c’mon now you don’t wanna sleep away your whole day now do you?” She huffed shaking her head while she smiled sleepily as he helped her get up out of bed while Pharaoh was already moving his way into Kinsley’s room to finish up his own puppy nap. Delilah stretched while yawning and held onto Cody’s hand “How about tonight we make dinner, watch a movie, and just relax alright?” She smiled and the idea and nodded her head “I liked that idea.”

For the rest of the night all three of them had made dinner together, laughed together & relaxed, Cody did what he could do best to be supportive for Delilah as she was still putting her walls back down again realizing he wasn’t anything like Matthew, she was safe with Cody and he intended to keep it that way & even give her something more proper in return very soon.

My Other Fanfics in the Future

Well, I made announcements about my 2 Loonatics fanfics-related stories coming soon. So here are my other fanfics that I am making. But before I am going to show you my other fanfics, I like to share what most of them are like. Kervinverse related. If you checked my Tumblr header it's pretty obvious.

As you may wonder what is the Kervinverse is all about? The Kervinverse is like the multiverse but with all different kinds of Kervin. Inspired by Spiderman Into the Spiderverse all the versions of Kervin contained different personalities, stories, almost the same appearance, fighting styles, and special abilities. One of the most signature outfits is the black and red formal suit.

I already made a folder in toyhouse. However, most of it are unfinished and still ongoing.

https://toyhou.se/Kervin619/characters/folder:812137

People think that those stories a self-insert but it is actually not. Me and my other Kervins are the same but they are different the appearance, abilities, and personalities. An example is Denk Ops’s Chris Danger from the WWE games. And note that this is another long announcement for the other fanfics

So anyway, here are my Kervinverse stories that I would really like to share about Wattpad in the future. So are book covers later

KERVINVERSE STORIES (Including crossovers):

Grand Theft Auto Origins: Kervin Made Liberty – Set in the GTA HD Universe. Before Kervin (GTA Online) came to the place called San Andreas, he was just a very young boy who was born in the place called Liberty with his parents. His father Claude who became rich and retired to a life crime and his wife Misty who used to be a prostitute. It was normal and happy life for him and his parents. But when years passed when he is getting older, he slowly starts to realize what kind of broken world he is living in.

Now for those who played the HD Universe of the GTA Games you know every protagonist in the HD universe like Niko, Johnny, Luis, Michael Franklin, and Trevor. As much as they have different stories and perspectives but this story about GTA OC that he was living with full of offensiveness, disrespectfulness, brutal honesty, and others. An example in GTA IV a radio commercial of Babies Overnight that said that someone was not satisfied with the baby it can be disposed of. Although it would be interesting to have that backstory for my next OC for GTA. So, this story may contain a lot of murder and crimes on what led to him going to San Andreas. So, watch out. And for those who have not played GTA Online why his parents are both Claude and Misty is because it was part of the premium edition for free in Epic Games.

Def Jam X Kung Fu Panda: Book 1 Fight for A New Fight (maybe a working title) - After the events of Def Jam Vendetta, Fight For New York, and The Kung Fu Panda Trilogy including Legends of Awesomeness. Set during Paws of Destiny Season 2 in the Kung Fu Panda universe while in Def Jam 2 years later in the year 2005 after Crow's death (Fight for NY still takes place in 2003) Kervin (Def Jam Fight For NY) the new leader D-Mob's crew but also officially known as the Def Jam Crew after Blaze appointed him to take his place. Kervin has to manage every venue, club, and arenas in New York including places that Crow took over. But in Chinese New Year there was something strange that Kervin and his crew got transported to a different universe. Including former members, fighters, and circuit fighters.

Now, this fanfiction sounded really odd. As you may know why I am making crossover fanfic of Kung Fu Panda X Def Jam? Easy. The first one is because this is what would have been my PS2 games if I ever have a PS2. I was thinking of Mortal Kombat or Yakuza for Def Jam but Kung Fu Panda is the only thing I know when I was 7 years old. The second is because back in the days Hip Hop mixed with Kung Fu was very popular. Although Def jam may be a wrestling game martial arts stole my heart in Def Jam Fight For NY. I heard about things like the Wu-Tang Clan for example but the biggest problem for me is that I am not a true fan of Def Jam because I don’t know about hip hop artists. Just only the games so I will be focusing on their video game counterparts in their fictitious manner meaning pretending real-life characters with their real name are fictional characters. So, if there and fun facts in those real-life counterparts I may add them to it like easter eggs. The third is that there are Kung Fu Panda characters that did not get enough love and mostly art. So many recognizable characters like Po, Tigress, Tai Lung, and many more have become the most recognizable characters in the movies. But what about the tv shows like Legends of Awesomeness and Paws of Destiny? One of my favorite characters of Legends of Awesomeness is Peng, in short, he is the nephew of Tai Lung and he is such an interesting character that he deserves a lot more love. While for Paws of Destiny is Xiao because she is such a cute character, so is her personality and the best character to have hugs with. So, what I am trying to say is that I need to start off with the character that is unrecognizable then bring it recognizably. I may also add characters from shorts like student Mei Ling in the future book and it would be funny and to see rogue Mei Ling. 2 Mei Lings in one. Even Su and Master Snow Leopard because are both female leopards with the same appearance and outfit. I may also include some characters from the flash game Tales of Po and may possibly rewrite them in different stories because I love the character designs thanks to Blue Maxima’s FlashPoint. And the fourth and final part is that to make the Def jam games more recognizable. Def Jam in music is not absolutely enough but video games are. The Def Jam games did not bring a sequel after Fight For NY so I might as well make a sequel with interesting and experimental crossover fanfic just like The Loonatics Road.

The Red Fox (Kingdom Force Spinoff and maybe a working title) - The Kingdom Force has 5 members defending the 5 Kingdoms. Luka the wolf who leads in red, Jabari who runs in yellow, TJ who drills in green, Delilah who swings in orange, and Norvyn who strengthens in blue. Each of the 5 drives Kingdom Riders and turns them into Alpha Mech to fight against evil in the 5 Kingdoms. But even if they save the day multiple times the 5 Kingdoms are still filled with more crime and every antagonist came back doing other crimes and evil deeds because they were not arrested or eliminated. That's is when a red fox came along...

I have seen popular fandoms in cartoons that were supposed to aim at younger kids like Lion Guard, MLP, Paw Patrol, and even Bluey. But Kingdom Force is the cartoon that did get enough love. It's like Power Rangers and Voltron but with anthropomorphic animals like Zootopia. However, the stories and episodes in the show is very confusing and give me almost a lot of questions. But I do like the character designs in the show. My favorite hero is Luka who is a leader with and cute cuddly character personality and my favorite villain Envie Fernadez which she has a pretty hot design, name and voice and so is her personality. Reminds me of Sly Cooper but I have not played the game yet. But for the red fox also OC Kervin (Kindom Force) It’s still at work.

APB Reloaded X Zootopia: Anyone Can Be All You Can’t Be: - In Zootopia “Anyone Can Be Anything” But in San Paro “Be All You Can’t Be” Zootopia is a place where vicious predators and meek prey live in harmony. This means that people in Zootopia live together without the prey getting eaten by predators and predators not getting feared by the prey. They almost eat like us, they sleep like us, they speak like us, they walk like us, they run like us, they bathe like us (well almost), and most importantly they use technology like us. While San Paro maybe has a good look to sightsee but this city has a lot of crime. Robberies, bombings, thefts, drug dealing, murders and causalities, vandalism, and much more that we can think of. But that does not mean there is no justice in this world. When the Criminals like the Blood Roses and the G-Kings try to take over San Paro? The Enforcers Prentiss Tigers and Praetorians from come and save the day. What would happen when a human Enforcer meets a police fox and a police bunny? And how did it happen? Only one way to find out.

Now this one is also a Kervinverse crossover story. It focuses on Kervin (APB Reloaded) meeting Judy and Nick. I am trying to find a way on how will they meet each other. But the only thing ideas I know is that it can be a delivery gone wrong, an invention gone haywire or maybe a criminal stole something magical that is transported to a different universe. But I have a lot of strange things in the game like the Christmas events and Halloween events. I like to see any volunteers who play APB Reloaded. And for those Zootopia fans who have not played APB Reloaded you check it here. https://store.steampowered.com/app/113400/APB_Reloaded/

Well, that is it for the Kervinverse stories. Now it’s time for the other stories that I also planned in the future.

OTHER FANFICS:

Alza Flare (Road Rovers Fan Spinoff)- Alza is a black cat born in the place in New York City, USA. He was born inside a pet shop without cat parents since he was born. His parents' status is unknown. Although he did make friends with other cats and non-cats in the shop. But it was a short while until a human customer named Drayson Flare and adopted him as Alza Flare. Alza has been Drayson's pet for 3 years and they instantly became best friends but when during the time when they are about to go home from the park. A terrible accident happened.

A long time ago I watched Road Rovers on my phone just to try something nostalgic and the show is pretty good though although there are some parts that don’t use their powers all the time. One part that caught my eye is how brutal car accident in the episode “Dawn of The Groomer” which gave me an idea of my new anti-villain OC character named Alza Flare. Sadly, he does have an image of him yet. But I will tell you that I will give you an interesting revenge story for him.

The Best Surfer In The World (Surf’s Up Spinoff. Maybe a working a title and synopsis change) - After the events of Surf's Up and Surf's Up 2: Wavemania. There was once a wolf who lives in the place of Chicago Illinois. He quit his own career due to being a rejected member of Hang 5 for being too unstable and after beating J.C. in a tournament years ago and after his early retirement, he spends his normal life as an ice cream man in his own ice-cream motorcycle with one of his own freshest ingredients and swears to himself that he would never in the waters again. Until he met a young Toyger.

Surf’s Up is my first favorite mockumentaries since I was young. It’s like you are watching animals andromorphic animals absolutely existed in the world we live in. It had an interesting story and writing so are the interesting characters. But when I watched Surf’s Up Wavemania. Well, I honestly love the WWE Superstars and Diva came into the movie but the story did not actually surprise me a lot. Even if the movie has a lot of beautiful locations it still did not surprise me enough because it is more like an adventure than a tournament. That is why I am planning to start my fanfiction in a new different approach with a real story and a real rivalry. Starting with wolf inspired and based on CM Punk during the part when he won the WWE belt against Cena in Money in the Bank when I watched it since intermediate school with a little rename change so it won’t be obvious. And of course, my Toyger OC because he would be trained by his own surfing master. Also, I added a Slam City easter egg

Fire Pro Wrestling World Origins: Story of 2 Angels – There is no synopsis of them yet. But I will tell you they are brother and sister with the last name “Angel” The brother who is a pop artist while the sister who joined a motorcycle club. What they both have in common is they both can fight. Their stories about my 2 new Fire Pro OCs will be coming soon. But they are not part of the fighting roads.

Well, that is all for all the future stories with some summaries that I really want to share coming soon. Thanks for following including Wattpad

Also making fanfic is really long to make just like making an announcement. So again. I only post all chapters in 1 book.

BTS Reaction: You’re A WWE Wrestler

Jin:

As your entrance music played, Jin’s eyes lit up, standing from his seat he leant through the rest of the crowd, desperate to be able to see you as you ran down the ramp.

“She’s amazing,” he overheard one of the fans stood in front of him, proudly smiling as you neared, spotting him in the crowd, you quickly walked over to give him a tight squeeze.

“You look awesome,” he whispered to you.

Your hand cupped his cheek, pressing a soft kiss to his lips as the crowd erupted. “I’m so glad you’re finally here to be able to watch me,” you replied.

“I wouldn’t miss this for the world.”

“This one’s for you,” you added, before letting him slip out of your grasp, continuing to make your way towards the ring, engaging with all the fans as you always did.

The young fan turned to look at Jin, giggling to himself. “Is she your girlfriend.”

“She is. Amazing, isn’t she?”

Yoongi:

For weeks he’d worked hard on creating the perfect banner that would capture your attention as you stood in the ring. A massive piece of cardboard with your ring name on it.

“Go Y/N!” He yelled, bouncing up and down with the rest of your fans who stood at the barrier. “I’ve never been to an actual wrestling match before, it’s pretty cool.”

“Everyone loves Y/N,” a fan informed him.

Yoongi nodded, refusing to take his eyes off of you in the ring. “Yeah, well no one loves her as much as I do, I’m the lucky person that gets to be her boyfriend, no one else.”

“You sound a little bit jealous.”

“Not jealous, just proud,” he clarified to another fan, dressed appropriately in one of your fan shirts. “You’re just jealous she’s mine and not yours, that’s what’s going on.”

The guy’s eyes rolled, “she’s a talented wrestler, I bet she makes you happy.”

“Oh, she definitely does, the best!”

Hoseok:

He covered his eyes with his hands, listening to you count down from three as you walked down the stairs, your new ring gear fitting your figure perfectly.

“You can look now,” you said, walking into the front room. His jaw hit the floor as he saw you twirl in front of him, showing off the new purple coloured gear you had custom made for a big show.

“You’ve taken my breath away,” he blushed.

You smiled, skipping over to press a kiss to his lips. “I thought you might like it, at least everyone will be watching me in the ring now.”

“My eyes were always on you jagi.”

“I’m glad to hear it,” you chuckled, perching on his lap, wrapping your arms around his neck. “What do you say if I keep this on for a little while? I want to get comfortable.”

His smile only grew wider, “there would be zero complaints from me.”

“It’s settled then, I’ll leave it on for a while.”

Namjoon:

Your arm was raised in victory, looking around the arena instantly for Namjoon, spotting him stood at the very front of the crowd, with his arms raised high in celebration of your victory.

“Good job jagi,” he cheered as you jumped down to see him, wrapping you tightly into his arms, pressing several kisses along your neck, ignoring the beads of sweat.

“You’re obviously a very lucky charm,” you teased.

His head shook, refusing any acknowledgement. “No way. You won because you’re super talented and athletic, I’m just the lucky guy that gets to be your number one fan.”

“You definitely are my number one fan.”

“I watched most of it with my eyes covered though,” he chuckled, flinching at every point as he watched your body slam against the mat. “Doesn’t it hurt?”

Your head shook, “it used to, but not for a long time now, I’ve perfected it.”

“You definitely have, you little superstar.”

Jimin:

Your arms locked around Jimin’s neck, pulling him into your side, walking him around the bedroom. You adjusted your grip, hooking the hem of his trousers, placing him into position.

“Don’t move, just follow my lead,” you spoke, lifting him up and flipping him back, hearing his back hit the mattress. “How did that feel?” You questioned, looking back at him.

“I wouldn’t like to do it again,” he chuckled.

He rolled over, placing his hand on his back. “It can’t have hurt that much; you’re just being silly. If you want, we could try a neck breaker, or a back breaker?”

“Wait you don’t actually break my back, do you?”

“No, I do it every night,” you reminded him, holding your hand out to help him up. “You kind of get used to any pain after a while, that’s probably quite weird.”

He cringed, relieving the feeling again. “You must be crazy to want to be a wrestler.”

“If crazy is what you like, then I’m your girl!”

Taehyung:

As you landed on your foot, your ankle rolled, sending you toppling to the mat, clutching at the source of the pain. It was a sensation like no other, and straight away, you knew something was up.

“Somebody help me!” You shouted, slamming down hard on the mat of the ring. Your eyes shut, but you could feel a hand slip into yours, squeezing it tightly.

“I’m here, don’t worry,” a voice spoke.

Your eyes opened, seeing Taehyung sat by your side, keeping your eyes on him to stop you looking down at the medics that attended to you. “I’m scared Tae.”

“Don’t be, you’re going to be alright.”

“What if I’m not?” You nervously asked, squeezing hard on his hand as you felt the medics attend to your ankle. “I’ve never been injured before.”

He smiled sympathetically, “you don’t have a thing to worry about, I’m here.”

“Please don’t leave me Tae, I don’t know what to do.”

Jungkook:

His laughter was loud as you threw him into the corner of the ropes. You ran over, tapping against his leg, stamping down on the mat with your spare leg to create the effect of a kick.

“So, you don’t actually kick them?” He questioned, pretending to fall to the floor in agony, clutching at the knee that you pretended to attack.

“No, otherwise we’d all be injured constantly,” you laughed.

He smiled, as you stepped back, counting to three for him to get up. “I feel like I’ve been cheated, I never realised that wrestlers pretended to hurt each other, what’s the point?”

“It still entertained you for all those years.”

“That’s true, even now I’m excited,” he chuckled, pulling himself up with the ropes. “Can we try something a bit harder? I want to be a professional.”

Your eyes widened, shaking your head, “let’s perfect the basics first.”

“Stop chatting and get on with it then.”

bras and bets

Summary: You own this small lingerie shop in Davenport. One day near closing this man comes in, shopping around. Little did you know, he was shopping because he lost a bet between him and his best friends. 

Warnings: None pals.

A/N: Alright, so this is my first time dabbling into WWE writing. Also, I’m using my knowledge as a lingerie sales associate to write this. I hope you guys enjoy this! - Amanda

Owning a lingerie shop was the best thing you’ve done. You were able to be surrounded by things you love and were able to make money off of it. After rushes, you were typically left to clean it up before another tidal wave of customers.

Fridays were semi busy. People came in prior to closing just to get a nice set before their lucky night out or because they are heading out of town that weekend and forgot to get some bra and panties. The racks near the fitting rooms were trashed. You had two racks worth of bras and panties that were to be rehung, as well as two baskets of mix matched bras and panties that belonged in the boxes.

Typically near closing no one came in, leaving you the chance to try and clean as much as you can before leaving for the night and coming in to deal with it the next morning. You were humming along to the music that coursed through the speakers. 

You were organizing the rack based off of what goes to each spot of the store. The bell rang, signalling someone walked into the store, “Hi! Welcome to Avec Amour. Let me know if you need any help.”

He let out a soft, “Alright,” before going and looking around the store. 

His eyes glanced over the displays and his fingers occasionally ran across some of the lace. His eyes were fixated on a mesh bralette with red roses covering the nipples. “This one looks great on make different body types and skin tones! There’s a set to this one. Let me know the sizes and I can definitely grab them for you.”

He turned around, “Oh about that…” He trailed off.

“Yes?”

“It’s for me,” he said shyly.

“That’s not an issue,” you said offering him a reassuring smile. 

“Not like that,” he rushed out, “I lost this football bet to two of my friends, and now I have to wear a bra for them.”

You chuckled, “That’s not a problem,” you flipped the sign on the door from open to closed. “Just head to the back near the fitting rooms and I can definitely do the fitting for you.”

“You don’t have to do all of this,” he said, “I can come back tomorrow, you’re closed for today.”

“No don’t worry about it sweetheart,” you said grabbing the navy blue measuring tape off of the desk.

“Isn’t the owner going to be mad that you closed early?” He asked, taking off his denim jacket and placing it in one of the empty rooms. 

“Nope, I’m the owner, so I don’t mind,” you said offering him a smile. 

“I never got your name, I’m Seth,” he said reaching out to shake your hand. You shook it and told him your name.

“Shirt on or off?” He asked.

“On for now. Once we get trying, definitely off,” you responded wrapping the tape around your fingers.

“How do you want me to stand?” He said, standing up straighter than he usually did.

“Just your normal posture is fine.” You said pushing a piece of hair behind your ear.

“How do you want my arms?” 

“To your side please.” 

He let out a big exhale, “Don’t worry about it, it’s nothing. Stand in your normal posture and it would be done in a blink.” He nodded and you gave him a reassuring smile. 

You took the measuring tape and reached around him, once under his bust, and a second time over his bust, taking mental note of the two measurements. “That’s it,” you concluded.

“That’s it?” He asked.

“Yeah, you’re a 45DDD,” you said wrapping the tape around the back of your neck. “So many brands don’t make a size 45, they make them in a 44 or a 46. If you want it tighter, go to a size 44 and if you want a loose fit go to a size 46.”

He nodded along, pretending he knew what was happening. “So is that it?”

“Not yet, there are still many styles you we have to look into.” You grabbed a black pen and lavender sticky note. “Wirefree or do you want wire?” 

“What?” 

You grabbed two different bras that had to be put back. You showed him the difference, “This one has a wire underneath, this one doesn’t.”

He looked shocked, “You guys wear wires underneath your clothes?”

“Depends on the person. Either they wear it or despise it.” You said, putting them back on the rack.

“I don’t know about the wire,” he said, pushing up his black glasses.

“Alright, I’ll put that as a both until you try it on.” You took note of it on the tiny paper. “Push up or no push up?” 

“Not at the moment, but if I see something I like I wouldn’t mind,” he said.

“Strapless?”

“I need the support, so straps.” he joked.

You let out a laugh before taking him around the store and showing him the different options and sizes that would fit him. 

Eventually the two of you made it back to the dressing rooms, with handfuls of bras that were of different colours, styles and sizes. You rolled out a third rack and put his options on them. “So I’m assuming you don’t know how to put on of these on.”

“I don’t know how to put them on, but I sure do know how to take them off,” he said wiggling his eyebrows, which resulted in a laugh from you.

“Alright comedian, this is the time you’ve been waiting for, strip.” You said chuckling.

He pulled the black shirt from his body and the matching black beanie from his head, “You know I do crossfit?”

“You know, everyone who I’ve ever talked to, they always say that they do cross fit,” you said, fixing the straps to fit Seth’s shoulders.

“Yeah, it makes you seem cooler,” Seth said. You chuckled and buckled the back. “Ow, this underwire hurts.”

“Beauty is pain,” you said, before helping him out of it.

You helped Seth through all of his choices. Eventually he settled on a red pushup bra and a military green lace bra with no padding.

“Sorry to keep you an hour after your shift ended,” he said fishing his wallet out of his pocket. 

“It’s not a problem, if I can help you, that makes my day a thousand times better,” you said offering him a smile. “Alright so it’s $163.85”

“Jesus, who knew two bras would be this expensive.” He said, “Credit,” he said before inserting his card into the machine.

“Anyone who wears a bra,” you said, giggling. You wrapped up his two bras and placed it in a white bag with navy blue wrapping paper sticking out. 

“Thank you so much for helping me,” he responding putting his credit card back in his wallet which then went back into the jeans of his pants. 

“That’s not a problem,” you said walking him to the door, “See you around?” 

“Of course,” he responded before exiting your store. You flipped the lock and walked to the back.

You let a smile sit on your face while you were grabbing your stuff and getting ready to go home.

Roman, Dean and Seth had the habit of walking around the street after getting coffee on Sundays. The three of them passed by before stopping, “So did you ever ask her out?” Roman asked. 

“Nope, I panicked.” Seth said, taking a sip from his cup of coffee. 

“So you went in and bolted out? I would pay to see that,” Dean said, laughing and earning a chuckle from Roman.

“Nope, I got her to help me for an hour because I was buying bras,” Seth said.

“You bought bras instead of asking her out?” Roman laughed.

“Yeah, almost $170 dollars worth of bras,” Seth said. 

“How did you buy $170 dollars worth of bras? Jesus Christ.” Dean said, shocked. 

“Told her that I lost a bet to you guys, and needed to wear a bra.” Seth responded nonchalantly before  he looked into the shop. Upon looking in, he saw you and your coworker Maya laughing and putting away bras and panties.

At that exact moment, you looked out of the window and saw him. You let out a million dollar smile and waved at him. Seth waved back and you went back to work.

“So you ever going to ask her out?” Dean asked.

“Maybe if I don’t wuss out and buy another set of bras.” Seth said before the three of them started their walk again.
