Echo's POV:

Tom looked at me. "Let's do the Solita dance a few times." I nodded and set it up.


When we finished that we heard clapping. I turned and saw Colby, Joe and Jon looking at me. My dance group looked at me.

I guess it's now or never. I turned to face my dance group. "These are my friends. Seth, Roman and Dean."

Everyone looked at me with shock.My dance group looked at me with a smirk. "Till I Die." I sighed but nodded.

I went to my phone and looked at Colby. "I do this all the time so just watch then we'll leave. We do this a couple times." "This is your song Echo. We'll join in." Tom said and I nodded. I hit play and went back.

I looked at the ground out of breath. "Wow Echo." I looked at my group and they left. I sat on the ground and broke.

Jon's POV:

She broke down. I looked at Colby who was looking at Echo. "Echo what's wrong?" He went forwards and she backed up.

"Stay away from me. I can't hurt you guys again." Colby looked at us. "We're fine Ec." She looked up at us.

"I take it you want to know why I stopped talking?" She asked and we nodded. She stood up. "Let's head back to the hotel then i'll tell you." She paused.

"After I take a shower." She went over towards her bag and her phone. She looked at us. "Seriously? 39 missed calls and 105 texts?"

Colby rubbed his neck. "We were worried." She looked at the ground. "Let's go." She said in a quiet voice.

"Don't start with that Echo." Colby said. No response. She collapsed. We all ran towards her and Colby looked at me. "Pick her up and carry her to the hotel."

I was confused but nodded. Joe behind me. We both ran and made it to the hotel. I ran up the stairs and made it to her room.

Colby looked at me. "Your girlfriend is looking for you." I sighed. Of course April is looking for me. I nodded and passed him Echo.

Colby's POV:

I brought her inside and grabbed her needle. Joe looked at me. "She hasn't eaten in a few weeks so I have to give her this. Doctors orders." He nodded.

I stuck the needle in her arm and gave her the liquid. "Now we just have to wait."

2 hours later

I looked at Joe. "Call Jon and have him pick up a lot of food." He nodded and dialed his number.

Echo began to stir just as Jon ran through the door. "What's going on?"

Echo's POV:

I opened my eyes and looked around. Joe was looking at me. "What?" He looked beside me. "He's been worried about you ever since you collapsed."

Shit. Colby looked up at me as Jon nudged him. "When was the last time you ate Echo?" I stood up and walked towards my room.

"Bitch." I heard Jon mumble. I turned around and looked at him. "I know i'm a bitch but it comes with my name."

I walked in my room and grabbed my clothes and went to the bathroom. I slammed the door and turned on the water.

Joe's POV:

I looked at Jon. "Seriously Jon?" Colby looked pissed. "She might not talk anymore because of your stupid remark."

He looked at us. "I doubt that." I rolled my eyes at him. "What makes you so sure?" I asked. He was about to answer when April came in.

"Dean. Where have you been? I've been looking all over for you." Jon was about to answer when Echo comes in the room.

When did the water turn off? "Guys who walked in?"

Echo's POV:

I looked and saw April looking at me. "Oh look. The freak speaks. Ortons gonna kill you loser." She left the room.

I could feel everyone's eyes on me. "Echo please lis-" I went to my room and slammed the door. I locked it and slid down.

I heard someone come to the door. "Listen Echo. Jons girlfriend-" I zoned out. His girlfriend. That's it. I'm not speaking again.

I walked towards my bed and laid down. I closed my eyes as someone unlocked my door. They came towards me.

"Listen. Don't do this to yourself." Colby. I know what he means. I was trying to not sob but it didn't go to plan.

"Echo don't cry." He tried to console me but it didn't work. "Joe! Jon!" He called out and I heard running.

"What?" Jon asked harshly. Another sob. "Oh." He said. "April's here as we-" I couldn't stop myself. Hearing her name broke me.

"Get April out of here Jon." I'm not ready to face my family tomorrow. I can't. If I do I might kill myself afterwards.

"No Echo don't let your thoughts consume you." I heard but didn't register who said it. "Jon!" The same voice yelled.

"Yeah?" I think Jon asked. They don't care. I could die tomorrow and they would be happy. I could only sense one person in the room.

I turned on my other side and saw Jon looking at me from the floor. "What would happen if I killed myself?" I asked.

He came towards me. "Colby would hate himself." I sighed and looked behind him. "Who would care anyways?" I asked completely ignoring his answer.

"The WWE universe, all the superstars, Colby, Joe, me." He said the last one softly. "My parents are the reason why I stopped talking."

He seemed confused. "What do you mean?" "They hated me and still do. Every time I would talk I would get slapped."

I cringed at the memory. "My mom told me that I was a mistake and that I should die. I believed her and I still do." He stopped me there.

"Don't listen to what she said." I sighed and turned around so my back is facing him. "It doesn't matter. After the match tomorrow i'll be gone."

I'm not in my right mind right now. "If she gets like that I normally have to comfort her till she falls asleep." Colby tells Jon.

I curl up in a ball and turn towards the door. Jon left. My bed dips and I look. "What are you doing Jon?" I ask.

"Shut up." I look away but was pulled towards him. "Calm down. You aren't dying Echo." I smiled and turned around.

"What if I have nothing to live for?" I closed my eyes and was drifting off. "You have me." was the last thing I heard.

A/n: just a little bit of Echo's and Deans relationship growing in this one with Echo seeing her old dance group again
