Chapter 8

The next morning, Seth laid behind Bayley, spooning her in bed as she slept peacefully, dreaming of what her first time with Seth would be like.


It was Sunday evening and Bayley had snuck upstairs after dinner. While everyone danced downstairs, Seth walked up to his room hoping to find her.

"Bayley?" He asked as she stood across his room.

"Shut the door." She told him.

Seth cautiously shut the door, not sure what was going on. Suddenly, Bayley walked over to him and kissed him on the lips. She reached her hand back and unzipped her dress. Seth looked down at her as her gown fell to the ground. He couldn't help but admire her white, lace undergarments.

"Bayley-." Seth tried to stop her.

She leaned back in and kissed him slowly. Seth pulled away.

"We can't do this." He told her.

Bayley leaned forward, placing her lips against his ear.

"I want you so bad." She whispered.

Seth closed his eyes, suddenly feeling himself give in to temptation. Bayley looked into his eyes with desperation as she bit her bottom lip. Seth stood there for a second, knowing that this was a bad idea. Bayley grabbed his hands and placed them on her ass. At this point, Seth was done for. He let out a smirk and picked her up aggressively. She wrapped her legs around him as they shared another wet kiss. She let out a small moan as Seth ran his hands up her back, smoothly unhooking her bra. He walked her over and threw her onto the bed. Bayley looked up at him with hunger in her eyes as he took off his shirt at the end of the bed. Seth looked down at Bayley, and licked his lips as he observed her body. She let out a seductive laugh as he unbuckled his pants and pulled them down. He crawled on top of her as he got onto the bed. They looked into each other's eyes as he bang kissing her neck. Bayley began to breathe heavily as she felt Seth's manhood rubbing against her panties.

"Are you sure about this?" He asked her.

"Yes." Bayley assured him.

Seth laughed and kissed her on the lips again. He grabbed her breasts, gently kissing them on his way down her body. Bayley let out a deep breath as he got closer to her waist. He gently pulled her panties down as he began kissing her thighs.

While Bayley was dreaming of finally losing her v-card, Seth seemed to be dreaming of a completely different experience.


Seth stood at the alter, nervously as he waited for his bride.

"It's okay, man. Once you see her, all the nerves will go away." Dean said from behind him.

Seth looked back at Dean with tears in his eyes.

"Thank you for being here, Ambrose. Having you as my best man really means a lot to me." Seth told him.

"We're brothers man. I'm always here for you." Dean said as he put his hand on his shoulder.

Seth turned back around and took a deep breath. Suddenly, Bayley appeared at the end of the aisle with her father. She was wearing a beautiful, white, lace ball gown with sleeves. Her long, black hair was curled down, complementing her look. Seth looked down the aisle and felt a warmth in his heart as she made eye contact with him. Bayley held tightly onto Damien's arm as they began to walk down the aisle. In that moment, Seth saw his entire life flash before his eyes. Seeing Bayley walk down that aisle was like looking into the future. He knew then that everything in his life was leading up to this moment. She was his endgame all along.


Seth slowly began to open his eyes. He looked over at Bayley and let out a smile. She was still fast asleep under his arm. Seth leaned down and kiss her on the back of the head before slowly sliding out of bed. He stood up and laughed at himself for a minute before walking into the bathroom to brush his teeth.

When he walked back into his room, Bayley had rolled onto her stomach, somehow managing to kick the blankets off of her. Seth's sweatshirt had now ridden itself up above her waist line. He looked at her for a second, trying to ignore the fact that her backside was completely visible. The only thing covering her up at this point was the thin layer of her lace panties. Seth walked over and looked down as her ass for a second.

"Damn." He said to himself in admiration before putting a blanket back over her.



On the Southside, Tomaso woke up to find Johnny cooking breakfast.

"Morning." Johnny said as Tomaso poured himself a cup of coffee.

"What's your plan with Candice?" Tomaso asked him casually.

"She told you?" Johnny asked.

"Yeah.. she did. You can't keep doing this to her man." Tomaso told him.

"I know, trust me.." Johnny said as he looked over at Tomaso shamefully.

"This doesn't have anything to do with the Northside does it?" Tomaso asked.

Johnny quickly looked away from Tomaso and went back to cooking breakfast.

"Look I get that your father died but maybe you're going about this the wrong way.." Tomaso began to say.

"He didn't just die.. he was murdered." Johnny told him.

"My point is.. maybe you should just go to the police. Getting involved with someone like Alexa Bliss seems a like a drastic move.." Tomaso tried to tell him.

"It's too late now." Johnny said.

"What do you mean it's too late?" Tomaso asked him in confusion.

"It's just too late." Johnny said unfortunately.

Suddenly, Candice walked into the kitchen.

"Morning, boys!" Candice said happily, trying her best not to look phased by Johnny's rejection from the night before.

"Morning." They both said at the same time as they watched her get a cup of coffee.

"What are we doing today?" Candice asked them.

"Well.. I'm making breakfast. Then I thought we could hang out here? Maybe we can catch up on Riverdale?" Johnny asked them.

"Oh. I thought we could go out and do something." Candice said.

"I think it'd be more fun just to just stick around here, though." Johnny said.

Tomaso looked up at Johnny with confusion.

"Fine. Riverdale it is." Candice gave in.



A few streets back from the bar, Dana Brooke walked into the old bowling alley. She was careful to make sure no one saw her.

"Dana? Is that you?" Buddy asked.

"Hey!" She said as she greeted him with a hug.

"Did you bring what I asked?" Buddy asked her.

"Yeah. Everything's in the bag." Dana told him.

"And my grandmother?" He asked her.

"I just checked on her this morning." Dana assured him.

"Thank you so much for all of this. I don't know what I would do without you." Buddy told her.

"Are you going to tell me what's going on? Why are you hiding in here?" Dana asked him.

"There's a lot I have to fill you in on.." Buddy said.




Back on the Eastside, Seth returned to his room with coffee as Bayley began to wake up.

"Good morning." He said as she sat up in bed.

Bayley smiled up at him as she admired his messy hair. He sat down on the edge of the bed and handed her a cup of coffee.

"Morning." She said in a raspy voice.

Seth looked over at her and smiled softly as he remembered his dream. Bayley on the other hand couldn't take her eyes off his torso as she remembered her own dream. She looked down at waist line of his sweat pants and raised her eyes brows in approval.

"Sleep well?" He asked her.

"Yeah.. I think that was actually the best night of sleep I've gotten in long time." Bayley told him.

"To be honest.. I think you might be the first girl that's slept in my bed without actually sleeping with me." Seth told her.

Bayley looked up and him grinned.

"Well I did offer.." she said as she took a sip of her coffee.

Seth looked down at her and laughed.

"So.. Should we talk about this?" Seth asked her suddenly.

"What do you mean?" Bayley asked him uncomfortably.

"I mean us. What are we doing here? What is this?" Seth asked her curiously.

"I don't know.. what do you think this is?" Bayley asked him.

Seth looked over at her for a second and felt his heart frown warm again. Bayley looked up at him cautiously.

"I think.." Seth began to say as he rested his hand on her bare thigh. Bayley felt her heart begin to beat faster as he looked into her eyes.

"I think.. I'm in love with you." Seth told her.

Bayley watched his eyes as butterflies filled her stomach. She let out a small smile and put her hand over his.

"Seth.." Bayley tried to say.

"It's okay.. you don't have to say it back. I just.. I wanted you to know how I feel." Seth told her.

Bayley sat her coffee down on the night stand and scooted closer to Seth. She curled up next to his and took his hand, kissing it gently.

"I care about you, Seth.. I really do.. I'm just terrified to say those words out loud." Bayley told him.

"It's okay. I'm not going anywhere.. take your time." Seth said.

They looked into each other's eyes, both of them feeling nothing but contentment. Bayley smiled up at him as he leaned down and kissed her slowly.



On the Southside at the bar, Jimmy was drinking his coffee out on the terrace when Sasha walked outside.

"Morning." She said.

Jimmy looked at her with frustration.

"Jimmy, come on. It wasn't my place to tell you." Sasha said.

"I thought we were friends but apparently not." Jimmy said.

"Naomi is my friend too. What was I supposed to do? If I had told you then she would be the one who's mad at me right now." Sasha said.

Jimmy looked up at Sasha and let out a sigh.

"I know.. I'm sorry. I shouldn't be taking this out on you. She's the one that cheated." Jimmy said.

Sasha walked over and sat down next to him.

"How did you know anyway?" Sasha asked him.

"I know my girl.. and I know how she acts when he's around. We've gone through this whole thing before.." Jimmy told her.

"You have?" Sasha asked him curiously.

"Yeah.. After everything went down with Rollins and Ambrose, things were a little crazy around here. Naomi and I went trough a bit of a rough patch and she left town for a few months." Jimmy said.

"Really? I had no idea.." Sasha said.

"She was convinced that there was more to the story with Rollins. She refused to believe that he just turned on us.. and that lead to us butting heads all the time. So when she left town she met Kofi. He was engaged to Mandy Rose in Oakville." Jimmy said.

Sasha looked at Jimmy in surprise at what he was telling her.

"We were broken up and I guess they had an affair. Apparently they had some falling out before the wedding and Mandy found out about her. Naomi came back to town and he married Mandy. After that we got back together." Jimmy said.

"And you guys have been together ever since?" Sasha asked him.

"Yep. And there were a few times that Kofi came back to town with Mandy over the holidays and we always went out for dinner with them. Despite all that went down between them, the four of us actually got a long pretty well." Jimmy said.

"And now that Mandy and Kofi are getting a divorce and he moved back to town.. she got back with him.." Sasha said to herself.

"At least now I know why she won't marry me.. she was just waiting for him to leave Mandy." Jimmy said with tears in his eyes.

Sasha put her hand on his, hoping to comfort him.

"She loves you, Jimmy. You know that.." Sasha told him.

"Yeah, I know.. but she loves him too." Jimmy said as a tear fell from his face.

"Fuck. I'm so sorry." Sasha said as she hugged him.


At Finn's apartment, he and Zelina were just finishing their breakfast.

"I'm sorry." Zelina told him.

Finn looked up at her in surprise.

"For what?" She asked.

"I shouldn't have walked out of the bathroom. I mean maybe if she hadn't seen me you would be engaged right now." Zelina said.

"No.. it's not your fault. This is all on me, I'm the one that cheated." Finn told her.

Zelina looked over at Finn and saw the pain in his eyes.

"Do you still love her?" Zelina asked.

"Of course I do.." Finn said as a tear fell from his face.

Suddenly, someone knocked at the door. Finn and Zelina both looked back in surprise. Finn got up and walked over to open the door.

"Sonya?" He asked in confusion as she stood there holding a baseball bat.

She let out a fake smile and punched him across the face.

"Finn!" Zelina yelled as she ran to his aid.

Sonya walked into the apartment and eyed Finn's flat screen tv.

"Get the fuck of here!" Zelina yelled at her.

Sonya walked into the living room and swung the bat through the tv, shattering it into pieces. Finn held his mouth and watched her, knowing he deserved everything that was happening to him. Next, Sonya pulled out a pocket knife.

"Wait. What are you doing?" Finn asked with concern.

She smiled over at him as she slashed his leather sofa.

"Fuck." Finn said.

Sonya walked up to him and looked him in the eye.

"Just be thankful that I didn't cut your dick off." Sonya said before walking away.

Zelina shut the door and locked it.

"Are you okay?" She asked him.

Finn shook his head and walked back to his room to get ready for the day.




On the Westside, Roman had brought Renee breakfast in bed.

"Thank you, boyfriend." She said.

"You're welcome, girlfriend." He said with a smile on his face.

Roman leaned down and kissed her on the lips.

"I love you." He said to you.

"Love you more." She told him.

Roman looked down at her and laughed.

"We're being total dorks right now, aren't we?" Roman asked her.

"Well I'm not. You on the other hand.." Renee began to say.

"Oh, so I'm a dork?" Roman asked as he moved her food onto the night stand.

"Roman." Renee said cautiously as he looked at her with his wild eyes.

He jumped on the bed and started tickling her.

"Roman!" She yelled playfully as he started kissing her neck.

He pushed himself up on the bed so they were face to face. They looked into each other's eyes, both letting out a smile. Roman tucked her hair behind her ear and kissed her on the forehead. Before things could go any further someone knocked at the door. They both jumped up in surprise as Renee looked at Roman with concern. She got up and walked out of her room. Roman stood in her doorway and watched as she answered the door.

"Miz?" She asked as he walked into the apartment.

Roman walked out of her doorway and into the kitchen.

"Hey, man." Roman said as he poured himself a cup of coffee.

Miz looked over at Roman in annoyance before bring his attention back to Renee.

"I'm sorry I didn't call you back.." Miz said.

"It's okay." Renee said as she crossed her arms.

"Look, I know I've been a little distant lately but I have a lot going on and-." Miz began to explain.

"I think we should break up." Renee blurred out.

Roman watched awkwardly from the kitchen as Miz froze in confusion..

"What?" He asked her.

"I'm breaking up with you." Renee told him.

Miz looked down at her and laughed, not sure if she was joking. Renee looked up at him helplessly, making him realize that she was being serious. He watched her for a moment as she glanced back at Roman.

"Why the fuck are looking at him?" Miz asked her.

"I wasn't, I just-." Renee began to say.

Suddenly, Miz noticed the red mark on Renee's neck.

"You've gotta be fucking kidding me." Miz said as he stared at her in disbelief.

Renee looked up at him with concern.

"Please tell me you didn't fuck him." Miz said seriously.

"What? Miz, no-." She began to lie.

"There's a fucking hickey on your neck, Renee!" Miz yelled at her.

She looked back at Roman again.

"Don't look at him! Look at me, I'm standing right here." Miz told her.

"I'm sorry." Renee apologized.

Miz looked back at Roman and laughed.

"Go fuck yourself, Renee." Miz said before storming out of the apartment.

Renee took a deep breath and looked over at Roman.

"That went well." He said, getting a laugh out of Renee.



Outside the building, Joe pulled up with Bayley.

"Thank you for bringing me back, Joe." Bayley said.

Joe looked over at Bayley and shook his head in disapproval at her bare legs.

"Joe." Bayley said.

"You don't have to sleep with him, you know?" Joe told her.

"What?" She asked uncomfortably.

"Look I know your love life is your business but this is different.. I don't want you to think that you have to give anything up to be with him-." Joe began to tell her.

"Oh my god. Please stop talking." Bayley said in embarrassment.

"I'm just saying.. He has a history and you don't have to do anything you don't wan to do." Joe said.

"I'm getting out of the car now." Bayley told him.

"Don't let him take your flower!" Joe yelled before Bayley could slam the door shut.

She buried her face in her hands as he looked at her from inside the car. Bayley turned around and walked inside, still wearing only Seth's sweatshirt. In the apartment, Kenny fed Kota a bite of his homemade blueberry muffin.

"Is it good?" Kenny asked him.

Kota nodded his head in approval as Bayley walked in the door. Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared at her in disbelief.

"Um.." Aj said as he tried to look away from her.

Bayley looked around at everyone and let out an awkward smile.

"Let me go put on some leggings." She said as she ran down the hall, trying her best to cover herself up.

Sonya looked over at Kota and Kenny with confusion. When Bayley returned with her leggings on, Aj couldn't stop staring at her. She poured herself a cup of coffee and looked up at Aj.

"What?" She asked him.

"Your like.. hot, Bayley. Like really hot." Aj told her.

Bayley looked up at him uncomfortably.

 "He's right. Your ass is amazing." Sonya told her.

"That's why you always wear pants huh?" Kenny asked.

Bayley looked around the room awkwardly.

"I feel very violated right now." Bayley told them.





On the Eastside, Seth walked outside to find Damien walking out by the garden.

"Do you have minute, Sir?" Seth asked him.

 Damien looked up at Seth curiously.

"Always." Damien told him.

Seth put his hands in his pockets as they began walking along the garden.

"Um.. I don't really know how to say this.." Seth began to say.

Damien looked over at Seth and could tell that he was uncomfortable.

"It's about Bayley." Seth said.

Damien stopped walking and looked up at Seth.

"I see.." He said.

"I'm going to tell you something and if you decide that it was a mistake bring me here.. If you decide that you want me out of the house then that's fin, I will completely understand.. I just feel like I owe it to you to be honest.. I mean after everything you have done for me.. I wouldn't feel right if I didn't have your permission.." Seth began to say.

"Spit it out, son." Damien told him.

Seth looked up at Damien, knowing that once he saying what he was about to say would mean risking losing his place on the Eastside.

"I'm in love with your daughter." Seth finally said.

Damien looked up at Seth, unphased.

"Yes.. And water is wet." Damien said as he let out a laugh.

"Wait.. You knew?" Seth asked him.

"I knew the minute you first joined us for dinner, Seth. The way you looked at my daughter.. It was the same way your father looked at your mother that first day at the lake." Damien told him.

Seth looked at Damien in confusion.

"You're not upset with me?" Seth asked him.

"Of course not, son.. If anything, I'm glad you finally got the courage to admit it to yourself." Damien said.

"Okay.. I'm very confused right now." Seth said.

"What did you expect me to do, kill you?" Damien asked in amusement.

"Yes, kind of." Seth said.

Damien laughed and patted Seth on the back.

"As long as you don't break her heart I think I can let you live." Damien told him.

"So you're okay with this?" Seth asked.

 "Well.. so far you have only told me that you are in love with my daughter. What exactly are you asking my permission for?" Damien asked.

"I'm not sure exactly.. I just figured I should talk to you about this before anything else happened.." Seth said.

"Anything else?" Damien asked seriously.

"No. I didn't mean it like that. Nothing like that has happened between us. She slept in my bed last night but that was all we did was sleep." Seth assured him in a panic.

Damien burst out in laughter.

"I appreciate your honesty with me, Seth but I really don't care what happens between you and my daughter behind closed doors." Damien told him.

Seth looked at Damien nervously.

"I'm sorry, sir.. But I'm in uncharted territory here. I don't know how to this.. You know, the right way.." Seth said.

"I think you're doing just fine, son." Damien told him.

"Really?" Seth asked him.

"Really.. But I do think this thing between you and my daughter may cause some complications in your relationship with your brother." Damien told him.

 "He's not my brother." Seth assured him.

"He is. And until he moves on form Bayley I think it's best the two of you keep your private life private. Finn doesn't need to know anything.. Not yet." Damien told him.

"You want me to lie to him?" Seth asked.

"I want you to get to know your brother and I think that might be a little more difficult if he finds out you have feelings for his ex-girlfriend." Damien told him.

Seth looked over at Damien and took a deep breathe.

"If you think it's best he doesn't know then my lips are sealed." Seth said.

Damien looked up at Seth and smiled.

"I'm proud of you, Seth. You've come a long way since you've been here." Damien told him as he leaned in for a hug.

"Thank you, sir." Seth said over his shoulder.





On the Southside, Candice was sitting on the couch with Johnny and Tomaso on each side of her as they watched Riverdale.

"Archie is such an idiot." Candice said.

"How is he an idiot?" Johnny asked her.

 "Because he clearly has feeling for Betty and he's pushing her away..like an IDIOT." Candice argued.

"Well maybe he has a good reason too." Johnny said.

"Or he's too much of an IDIOT to see that the greatest girl he will ever meet is standing right in front on him.

Tomaso rolled his eyes, realizing they weren't talking about the tv show anymore.

"I have to go. I have work." Johnny said as he grabbed his jacket and stormed out the door.

Candice sat up on the couch and thought to herself for a second. Tomaso looked up in confusion as she ran out the door after Johnny.

"Johhny!" She yelled.

He stopped at the end of the hall and turned around.

"What are you doing?" He asked her.

Candice walked down the hall slowly until she approached him. Johnny looked down at her as he hesitated to speak.

"I'm in love with you.. I always have been." Candice said with tears in her eyes.

In that moment, Johnny forgot about everything else that was going on in his life. He leaned down and press his lips against hers as they shared a slow, passionate kiss. Candice brought her self to her tippy toes as butterflies filled her stomach. They looked into each other's eyes as they pulled away.

"We can't." He told her.

"Do you love me?" She asked him.

"I do.. I really do.. But-." He began to tell her.

"But nothing. I'm done tip toeing around you like I am some fragile thing. Either you want me or you don't." She told him.

Johnny looked down at her and smiled.

"I do want you." He told her.

"Then I'll wait up for you. Have fun at work." She told him.

 Johnny closed his eyes in frustration as she walked away. Inside the apartment, Tomaso looked up at Candice as she walked in the door and leaned against the wall. She smiled and bit her bottom lip. Tomaso suddenly got an uneasy feeling in his stomach.

"I told him." Candice said.

"What?" He asked in confusion.

"I told him that I was in love with him." She said with a smile on her face.

"You told him-." Tomaso tried to say.

"Then he kissed me." She said happily.

"He kissed you? I mean.. You guys kissed?" Tomaso asked akwardly.

"It was amazing, Tomaso. I mean I've never been kissed like that in my entire life." She said as she walked over and jumped on the couch next to him.

Tomaso looked down and closed his eyes.

"I just went out there and told him how I felt and he heard me.. I mean he really heard me, Tomaso. I think this is really it.. It's actually going to happen." Candice said as she thought to herself.

"Congratulations." Tomaso said as he got up and walked to his room in annoyance.




On the Southside, Buddy was explaining the past few months to Dana.

"So what I need you to do is figure out who this girl is." Buddy told her as he put up a photo of Sasha.

"I know exactly who that is." Dana told him.

"You do?" Buddy asked her.

"That's Adrian Sanchez's daughter." She said.

Buddy looked at her in disbelief. 

"You're telling me that this girl right here, this the daughter of Adrian Sanchez?" He asked her.

"That's exactly what I'm telling you." She said.

 Buddy thought to himself for a second, trying to wrap his head around everything.

"Wow.. That actually explains a lot." Buddy said.

Dana watched him for a second with concern.

"Okay, so we've got Sasha Banks, the daughter of Adrian Sanchez.. She moves to the Southside after her father dies.. But why?" He asked her.

"Maybe we shouldn't be looking into this, Buddy. I mean if Alexa Bliss already ordered Adam to kill you we should probably back off." Dana told him.

"But that's the thing, Dana. Everyone thinks I'm dead. I can look into this all I want and no one will ever no a thing." Buddy said.

"I just have a really bad feeling about this.." She said.

Buddy ignored her and went back to putting photo's on the wall.

"So Aj Lee. She used to work on the Southside but turned on them, killing her then girlfriend, Carmella to join Damien Clark. But after that she continued a relationship with Alexa Bliss who just so happened to be Adrian's favorite person. I just don't think it's a coincidence that both Sanchez and Aj Lee turn up dead at the same time. There has to be something that we are missing.." Buddy said.

Dana watched Buddy with concern as he went down his own rabbit hole tying to figure out Greenville's deepest darkest secrets.



At the bar, Carmella walked downstairs in a tight black dress and sat down as Sasha poured her a drink.

"Hey.. I've been meaning to talk to you about yesterday." Sasha said.

"Let me guess, you don't want anything serious? We were just having fun?" Carmella asked her.

Sasha looked at Carmella in surprise.

"Um.. Yeah, that's actually exactly what I was going to say." Sasha told her.

"So we're on the same page then.. Friends?" Carmella asked as she offered out her hand.

Sasha looked down with hesitance.

"Friends." Sasha said as she reluctantly shook her hand.

"Okay then.. I have a date to get to, princess. I'll see you later." Carmella said as she got up and walked out of the bar.

Sasha stood there for a minute, trying to figure out what the hell just happened.




After his conversation with Damien, Seth had reluctantly agreed to have lunch with Finn. He walked into the diner on the Westside and sat down. After a few minutes of waiting, Finn walked inside.

"I didn't think you were coming." Seth said.

"I wasn't." Finn said as he sat down.

"I already ordered." Seth told him.

"Look I don't what Damien expects to happen here or why he even cares if we get a long but I really don't have anything to say to you.

"Really? You don't even want to talk about our father?" Seth asked him.

"No, I don't. He chose to raise you but he left me and my mother before I was even born. As far as I'm concerned, there is nothing to talk about." Finn said.

"You say that like he stuck around all these years.. He left me two you know?" Seth asked him.

"Yeah, when you were seven. That's better than nothing." Finn said.

Seth looked at Finn with annoyance.

"It was a mistake for me to come here." Seth said as he stood up.

"Have you made a move on her yet?" Finn asked suddenly.

Seth stopped and sat back down in frustration.

"What did you just say?" Seth asked him.

"Come on.. Are we really going to act like you haven't been after my girl this whole time?" Finn asked.

"I haven't actually.." Seth told him.

"Bullshit." Finn said.

Seth looked at Finn skeptically for a second.

"What happened between you guys anyway?" Seth asked.

Finn looked up at Seth and laughed.

"She didn't tell you?" He asked in surprise.

"No, she didn't." Seth said.

Finn thought to himself for a second, not sure if he should tell Seth the truth.

"I cheated on her." Finn blurted out.

Seth's face suddenly turned red with rage.

"You what?" He asked seriously.

 "I slept with another girl.. I cheated on Bayley." Finn said as he stood up.

Seth froze for a moment as he put his hand an his gun. Finn looked down at him and took a deep breath.

"I guess we are brothers after all." Finn said before walking away.

Seth stared down at the table as his eyes filled tears.

"Yeah. He's fuckin' dead." Seth said to himself as he got up and followed Finn outside.

Finn was just about to open his car door when Seth walked up behind him.

"Don't fucking move." Seth said as he held his gun up to Finn's head.

Finn turned around and looked at Seth, seeing nothing but rage in his eyes.

"Do it." Finn told him.

"You were supposed to be the good guy." Seth told him.

"Go ahead, Seth. Kill me. If this is what it's going to take for her to see that you haven't changed then do it.. Kill me. She will never be able to look at you again." Finn told him.

Suddenly, all the rage Seth was feeling turn to shame. Finn closed his eyes, fully expecting Seth to pull the trigger. Instead, Seth lowered his gun.

"What are you doing?" Finn asked in confusion.

"Being a better man apparently.. Something you should look into." Seth said as he began to walk away.

Finn watched in disbelief as Seth stopped walking.

"No.. You know what-." Seth said as he turned around and punched Finn across the face, knocking him out instantly.

Seth looked down as Finn laid motionless on the ground.


Suddnely, Dean got out of his car with Nora and saw Seth in the parking lot.

"Rollins?" Dean asked him.

"Dean?" Seth asked in surprise.

"What did he do?" Dean asked in amusement.

"It's a long story but trust me, he deserved it." Seth told him.

Nora let go of Dean's hand and began running around in circles.

"Babysitting?" He asked.

"Um.. No, actually. Becks and I are looking to adopt her. This is Nora." Dean said.

"Oh.. Wow." Seth said uncomfortably.

"We've actually been meaning to talk to you but since we're both here.. Do you mind if we go inside and talk for minute?" Dean asked him awkwardly.

"Um.. Sure." Seth said with reluctance.

Dean smiled awkwardly and looked over a Nora who was now stealing Finn's wallet.

"He's not dead right?" Dean asked Seth.

"No, I think I just knocked him out. Is she robbing him right now?" Seth asked.

"Yeah, she's pretty good at it." Dean said proudly.

"Whoa! I got eighty!" Nora yelled in excitement.

Seth watched in amusement as he followed Dean and Nora into the diner. 


They sat down and made their orders.

"I'm sorry but this is totally weird right?" Seth asked him.

Dean laughed and looked over at Nora.

"Why don't you give us a minute, Nora." Dean said.

Seth watched as Nora smiled at Dean. She climbed under the table and ran off through the diner.

"I don't have the files with me but I have a picture on my phone.." Dean said as she searched for a photo of Alicia.

Seth looked over and watched Nora sit next to elderly couple at the bar.

"Here. Did you sleep with her?" Dean asked him awkwardly.

Seth looked at the photo in confusion.

"What is this about?" Seth asked him.

"This is Nora's mother.. or was. She died in that explosion at the bridal shop. The father was apparently a Northsider and she has his eyes.." Dean tried to say.

Seth looked back over at Nora and laughed.

"You guys think it's me?" Seth asked.

"Well it was a one night stand.." Dean said.

"It wasn't me.. But I'm pretty sure I know who the father is." Seth said.

"You do?" Dean asked, trying his best to hide his relief that Seth wasn't Nora's father.

"Alicia Fox.. She was Hunter's mistress." Seth said.

"What?" Dean asked in confusion.

"They slept together for years.. That's why she catered so many parties. It was her cover.." Seth said.

"Hunter?" Dean asked.

"The last I heard, Alexa kicked him out of the mansion and he was living in an apartment somewhere." Seth said.

"Well fuck. I'm sorry man. I just figured-." Dean began to stay.

"It's okay.. I understand why you guys might of thought it was me." Seth said as he glanced over at Nora.

Dean looked back as Nora stole someone's phone.

"Shit." Dean said as he got up and walked over to her.

"No phones." Dean told her.

Nora let out a sigh and put the phone back where she got it. Dean picked her up and brought her back to the table.

"Is that all you wanted to talk about?" Seth asked him.

"Um.. Yeah, I think so." Dean told him.

"Okay, it was nice seeing ya, man." Seth said as he got up.

"Wait." Dean said as he remembered his conversation with Bayley.

Seth looked down at Dean with confusion.

"We cook out at our place every Sunday night.. You should come by this weekend." Dean told him.

"Are you serious?" Seth asked him in surprise.

"You don't have to feel obligated or anything.. But if you do want to stop by, you're welcome to." Dean told him.

Seth looked at Dean and let out a slight smile.

"I'll think about it." Seth told him.

Dean nodded awkwardly as Seth walked out of the diner.

"Dean, who was that?" Nora asked.

Dean watched through the window as Seth got into his car.

"An old friend." Dean told her with a slight smile on his face.




On the Northside, everyone was just finishing their dinner when Johnny walked into the kitchen. He dumped his plate and looked out the window to find Alexa sitting by the pool. After faking his way through the entire night, trying to pretend like he didn't despise everyone in the room, he finally felt some relief. He looked back into the dining room to make sure Adam was still talking with the other guys. He walked outside while they were distracted, hoping to get some information out of Alexa.

"Hey." Johnny said as he approached her.

Alexa wiped the tears from her eyes and looked up at him.

"Can I sit down?" He asked her.

"Sure." She said.

Johnny sat down hesitantly as he looked over at Alexa, not expecting to see her crying.

"Dinner was nice." Johnny said.

"Thanks." Alexa said as she glanced over at him.

"I'm kind of afraid to ask this.. but is everything okay?" Johnny asked her.

Alexa looked over at him cautiously, not sure why she felt so comfortable with him.

 "Let's just say that I've had my heart broken one too many times." Alexa told him.

Johnny looked over at her suddenly getting a glimpse of her humanity.

"I kind of know what that feels like.." Johnny said.

"That girl last night.. are you in love with her?" Alexa asked him.

Johnny looked over at Alexa and almost forgot he speaking to the woman responsible for his father's death.

"Yes, I am in love with her.. I have been since we were ten years old." Johnny said.

Alexa let out a smile.

"Wow.. That's a long time." Alexa said.

"Yeah, but we've never really been anything more than friends.. Not until that dinner last night." He told her.

"That was supposed to be your guys first date?" Alexa asked him curiously.

"Yes." Johnny said unfortunately.

Alexa looked at Johnny and felt an ache in her heart as she saw the disappointment on his face.

"You can't give up on her." Alexa told him.

"What?" He asked in confusion.

"Forget what I told you the other day.. If you love her then go for it. Life's too short not to be with who we love." Alexa said.

"But I thought I would be putting her in danger?" Johnny asked her.

"No.. I'll keep her protected. You have my word than nothing will ever happen to her. Just don't give up on her." Alexa told him.

"I'm confused.. You were pretty clear that I should stay away from her.." Johnny said. 

"Well I can be a cold hearted bitch sometimes.. And I was wrong to tell you to stay away from her." Alexa told him.

Johnny looked over at Alexa as the reflection of the water covered her face.

"Maybe you're not as cold hearted as you think." Johnny told her.

Alexa looked into Johnny's eyes and smiled softy. Inside, Adam had walked into the kitchen in search for Alexa. He watched her and Johnny talking by the pool with an uneasy feeling in his stomach.





On the Westside, Bayley had just gotten back from dinner at her fathers. All her friends were out for the night so she was walking around the house in Seth's sweater again. She played "I Think I'm In Love" by Kat Dahlia throughout the apartment.

Time's a ticking hearts are running
Think that Cupid's up to something
You ask me how I feel I say nothing

Bayley began singing and dancing throughout the apartment, taking advantage of her time alone. Suddenly, she heard a knock at her door.

But lately colors seems so bright
And the stars light up the night
My feet they feel so light

She opened the door to find Seth standing in the hallway. He immediately broke out in a smile at the sight of her in his sweatshirt.

I'm ignoring all the signs
I keep on frontin'

They both just stood there for a moment, looking into each other's eyes as she music continued playing in the apartment.

They ask they bluffin'
I keep you wondering
Keep you hunting for my lovin'

"Can I come in?" He asked her.

Bayley smiled and let him into the apartment.

But I crave us hugging
Yeah stay stubborn

Seth looked over at Bayley from across the apartment and admired the way she looked.

"How was your evening?" Seth asked her.

'Cause I can't admit that you got all the strings
And know just how tug 'em

Suddenly, Bayley ran across the apartment and pressed her lips against Seth's.

I think I'm in love again

Seth was surprised at first but quickly leaned in to the kiss as she wrapped her hands around the back of his neck.

In my head yeah you're in my head

Bayley brought herself to her tippy toes as Seth grabbed onto her waist.

I think I'm in love again

Bayley felt butterflies fill her stomach as she pulled away from Seth.

 In my head yeah you're in my head

Seth looked down at her and smiled as he felt a rush come over him.

"Seth Rollins, I am totally in love you." Bayley told him as she looked into his eyes.

I didn't think it could be true
Let alone that it would be you

"You're sure?" He asked her.

Bayley smiled and nodded in approval as she leaned back up and kissed him again.

I think I'm in love again
I'm in love I'm in love I'm in love




On the Southside, Tomaso had been hiding out in his room all evening. Candice was pouring herself a glass of wine when Johnny returned to the apartment.

"Hey." Candice said nervously, waiting for him to turn her down again.

Without saying anything, Johnny rushed over and pressed his lips against Candice's. She let out a small moan as they shared a slow passionate kiss.

"I'm all in." He told her.

Candice let out a smile and kissed him back. Tomaso made the mistake of coming out of his room for a drink. He barely got his bedroom door open before he saw Candice and Johnny making out in the kitchen. He felt his heart sink down into his stomach as his eyes filled with tears. He quickly went back to his room, leaning against the wall and falling to the floor as tears began rushing down his face.
