Remember Us?

                                    

                                          

"Come on now." Seth laughed as he continued to do push-ups while I tiredly laid on the floor for a few seconds, "You can't be champ and sleep on the job." 
                          
"Excuse me," I say to him, "But your legs don't feel like there about to fall the fuck off." 
                          
"No excuse Deany." He said, "You wanna take this title out of my hands? Gotta work for it. Now, up." 
                          
"Two more seconds?" I ask him. 
                          
"You stay there any longer and do I need to explain how hard it's gonna be to do a push up after that?" He asked me. 
                          
"You're a very sexual human being." I say with a laugh and he just shook his head with a smile. 
                          
"You wanna go out to get some lunch after this?" He asked me and I raised a eyebrow. 
                          
"Lunch?" I asked him, stuck on the words 'go out', "Um, uh, where?" 
                          
"I just need a yes or a no." Seth said with a laugh. 
                          
"Uh..." I though for a moment, "Uh yeah. Yeah.. I'll go." 
                          
"Good." He said with a smile just as the door to the gym room opened. 
                          
I couldn't help but stare as in came Roman, Randy and Renee. In a pack just like always... Except I wasn't there.
                          
I still text Renee on what seems like a daily basis. Randy and I speak in the hallways if we see each other but it's only a quick 'hi' or 'how are you'. It's awkward. Then there's Roman who'll just smile at me as though it's just ok that we haven't said anything to each other with in the past week, but I know he's upset about it. 
                          
Over the past few days, I've been hanging out with Seth. We ate together in catering, wandered the halls together before our matches, talked and talked and talked, and then there was the things we did behind closed doors... 
                          
Roman and I still roomed together but I'd just leave around ten, not even minding if he was awake when I left anymore. I wasn't choose Seth over Roman... I was just... choosing Seth over Roman... ugh..
                          
"Hey there Deany." Renee said as she came over and sat next to me while Roman and Randy stayed back and talked about something, "Long time no see." 
                          
"Thank this one for that." I gesture to Seth. 
                          
"Hey," he said, "Not my fault. You seem perfectly fine with it. Don't have to hang out with me." 
                          
"That's not even what I meant." I say to him then look back at Renee who was smiling slightly, "So what's up?" 
                          
"Oh nothin much." Renee said, "How's the fucking?" 
                          
"Renee!" I practically shouted and Seth smirked. 
                          
"It's pretty good." Seth said to her, "How's riding Orton's dick on a daily basis?" 
                          
"Seth!" I shouted at him, "what the fuck?" 
                          
Renee shrugged, "I wish that's what was going on. At least I'm not the only that thinks about it." 
                          
They both stared at each other seriously for a moment before smirking. 
                          
"Mind if I steal Dean form you for a moment?" She asked as she stood up. 
                          
"No problem." He said to her as she stood up, "Be back in five." 
                          
"What was that all about?" I asked her as we walked over to the corner. 
                          
"We both had to channel our inner asshole." She said to me with a shrug, then punched my shoulder, "I haven't talked to you face to face in a fucking week, what the hell is that about?" 
                          
"I told you." I say to her, "I've been with Seth." 
                          
"So you just decide to ditch your three best friends?" She asked me. 
                          
"Nae I hadn't meant to." I say with a sigh, "You know how awkward it is." 
                          
"It's only awkward because you don't wanna talk about it." She said to me. 
                          
"It's not ready to just talk about." I say to her. 
                          
She sighed, "Listen. I look at Seth and I look at you. And when I look at you too together like I just did. You both seemed happy, you really did Dean and that makes me happy. But you know you still got a best friend, and your losing him." 
                          
"How am I even suppose to talk to him?" I ask her, "Seth doesn't want me near him." 
                          
She shrugged, "European tour is coming up. Maybe you can talk then." 
                          
"What are the chances that Roman and I are gonna be in the same group without Seth?" I ask her, "Plus me and Seth already had some things that we wanted to do." 
                          
"Like what?" She asked me, "Fuck on London bridge?" 
                          
"Where you listening to our conversation..." I asked and she rolled her eyes. 
                          
"Dean." She said with a sigh, "Separation is good for couples-" 
                          
"Not a couple." I say quickly and she just rolled her eyes. 
                          
"Separation is good for..." She thought for a moment, "Friends with benefits-" 
                          
"Not friends-" I started to say but Renee hit me, "Ouch! Cut it out!" 
                          
"You give me migraines Ambrose." She said while rubbing her temples, "Be glad I love you. Now. Get back to your man crush. And you better text me later." 
                          
"Love you Nae." I say to her and laugh slightly as she flipped me off as she walked off.
