Third Person P.O.V.

Danielle, Paige, and AJ were all in their rental, going to the hotel after the show.

"So, how are things between you and Jon?" Paige asked her.

"They're good. He's living with Renee again. He moved out two weeks ago." she replied.

"Do you still love him?" AJ asked her best friend.

"Of course I do. I will always love him, but as family. For some reason, I feel like my heart belongs to someone else, but I can't tell who." the older girl replied.

"Like Colby?" Paige asked.

"I don't know." Danielle replied with a look they couldn't explain.

They got to the hotel and turned the car off before grabbing their luggage and checking themselves in.

All three of them got to share a suite and once they got there, AJ plopped herself on the couch.

"I'm gonna shower, I'll be right back." Danielle told them as she got what she needed.

She went to the bathroom and spent the next 20 minutes freshening up before meeting up with the girls again.

Danielle plopped on the couch and joined AJ and Paige as they opened up some of the takeout they ordered after the show.

As the three girls ate their food, Paige spoke up.

"We need to get rid of The Authority because my career isn't going anywhere with them." the goth woman asked.

"Good point. I keep getting blasted by the Botox Twins and their valet. We're easily outnumbered. They have a beach-blonde whore, Stephanie, Hunter, Colby, your brother, Big Show, Bella bitches, Miss 'I Can't Wrestle', and a so-called Viper." AJ added.

"Relax, girls. I have a couple friends down in NXT that Vince has considered bringing into the main roster who can help us. I'll call them up. Us, Joe, Jon, and Daikon are for now." the older girl replied.

Paige took a bite from her burger before shaking her head. "I just wished wrestling was fun again."

"It will, Pumpkin." Danielle said as she took a drink from her tea.

AJ took a bite from her fries and ate before speaking up.

"So, Colby told you the truth. What do you do now?" she asked her best friend.

Danielle finished chewing a piece of her burger before shrugging.

"I'm not sure. He could've told me sooner, but at this point, I don't see myself talking to him anytime sooner."

"Doesn't always work." Paige said as she drank her beer.

Danielle got her phone and lifted it up for a selfie and the girls happily obliged. She then posted it to her Instagram. That was the only social media she had, since Twitter wasn't necessarily her favorite app.

She put her phone down and the three girls continued eating until they were stuffed and the food was gone.

The friends all said goodnight before going into their separate rooms. Danielle took her hair out of it's ponytail and blow dried it for the morning.

After she was done, she turned off the light and climbed into the bed, underneath the sheets. With a deep breath, she closed her eyes and darkness soon took over.

Sometime later...

Danielle woke up when she heard the sound of knocking on her door, Groaning, she got up and opened it. When she did, she saw him there, holding his side and he was groaning in pain.

"Oh my god, Colby." she said as she observed him.

"What happened?" She asked.

"Summer. She went psycho." he replied.

She put his arm around her shoulder before she led him to her bed. "Stay here. Let me get the first-aid kit."

She ran to the bathroom and got it before going back to her room, turning on the lamp.

Once she sat down next to him, she helped him lay down and take his shirt off.

Danielle got the disinfectant and everything she needed. She poured some of it into a cloth and looked at him.

He nodded his head before she dabbed his wound and he hissed in pain. "Sorry." She apologized.

"No, it's okay." Colby replied.

After a while, she was done cleaning his wound. As she began patching him up, she thought about everything. He had told her the truth, was blackmailed, and things had been taken way too far. She felt guilty not being there for him and now here he was, wounded on her bed.

She felt the tears forming in her eyes as she finished her work.

"Hey, hey, hey. Don't cry. Come here."

Colby sat up, wincing in pain before pulling her into his arms. Danielle gripped his arm as she cried quietly into his chest.

"Shh, it's okay." he soothed her.

She pulled away and he wiped her tears. "I'm okay, babe."

Danielle smiled sadly at him before he rested his forehead against hers.

She closed her eyes as she felt his warmth and breathed his scent. It silently drove her crazy since it had been such a long time since she had this.

They looked into each other's eyes and slowly leaned in before Colby closed the gap and pressed his lips to hers.

She began to kiss him back and he went to pull her onto his lap, but she pulled away.

"What about your hip?" she asked.

Colby kissed her neck, making her close her eyes as she placed a hand on the back of his head.

"I don't care."

He kissed her again and he pushed her into the bed and she just couldn't resist.

***********************

Danielle woke up with a gasp as she turned on her lamp. She looked around and it was silent. No Colby. No anything.

She sat up and pushed the covers off of her before she stood up. "What the hell was that?"

Danielle went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. "Do I still love him?"

Shaking her head, she splashed her face with cold water and dried it before going back to bed.

As she lay in the dark, with only the moonlight shining through the windows, she looked up at the ceiling.

''Do I still love him? What was this dream?'
