Hello Everyone! I have recently gotten back into wrestling and have fallen in love with Seth Rollins. This story popped into my head and it was fun writing it. I don't own anything that's not mine. Please Enjoy :)

Scotlyn Cromwell smoothed a hand down the front of her white, lacy material of her dress. She gazed down at herself in the mirror making sure everything was prefect. She never thought she would be here. After everything that they had been through. Scotlyn took a calming breath as a knock sounded on the door.

"Come in." She called out.

"Wow. You look beautiful." The man said walking into the room.

"You think so?"

"Absolutely." He said

"I want everything to be perfect."

"As long as you make it to the end of the aisle. Everything will be perfect." There was a second knock on the door. A moment later, her best friend entered.

"It's time."

"Really? Wow. Ok." Scotlyn looked at herself one more time.

"You ready?" The man asked. Scotlyn nodded her head. "You know, if you're having any second thoughts. There's a gassed up limo just out front and a jet at the airport."

Scotlyn just laughed. "No. I want this…so much. Just…don't let me trip."
"Never." The man promised.

Scotlyn took a deep breath as they left the room. Her three bridesmaids were already lined up by the stairs. One by one they walked down and through the courtyard. Once everyone was at the front of the court yard it was time for Scotlyn. She fixed her veil to cover her face. Her flowers were placed in her hand as she heard the soft sounds of the piano start. Stopping at the top of the stairs, her gaze went to the brown eyed man standing at the other end. The moment they locked eyes, everything else faded away. Her heart beat felt like it was beating three times too fast. As she was led down the steps, passed all the guest, her eyes never wavered. Looking into the man's eyes brought back memories of when they first met. Everything that happened after that.

October 31, 2016

Scotlyn walked down the hallway of RAW in the XL Center in Hartford, CT. Her phone in one hand and a folder in the other. She was focused on her cell phone when it lit up with a notification. She was typing her reply as she rounded the corner. She collided with what she thought was a brick wall. The folder in her hand flew up and her papers went everywhere. Scotlyn groaned before beginning to collect her papers.

"I'm sorry. I should have been paying attention." She heard from above her.

"It's o…k." Scotlyn stuttered as she looked up into the chocolate brown eyes of Colby Lopez, known to the WWE Universe as Seth Rollins. "I wasn't paying attention either."

Colby bent down and helped her collect the papers. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine." She said as he helped her up from the floor. "Thank you." Scotlyn dusted off her skirt.
"Are you new talent?"

"Goodness no. I would probably kill myself just trying to get through the ropes. As you can tell, I'm a bit clumsy. I work at headquarters." Scotlyn laughed before sticking out her hand. "Scotlyn Cromwell but everyone calls my Scottie."

"Nice to meet you. Colby Lopez." Colby shook her hand. Scottie couldn't stop the blush that spread on her cheek when his warm hand met hers. "That's a really cool tattoo." Colby pointed to the wrist tattoo. It said 'Always' with the A in the sign of the deathly hallows.

"I am a big Harry Potter fan. Still one of my favorite book." Scottie missed his warmth when he pulled away.

"We don't usually see to many people from corporate on the road."

"I don't usually come to the shows a lot. I have a meeting with Paul and figured it was easier to come to him and for him to make the trip to all the way to Stamford."

"He was headed to his locker room a few minutes ago." Colby said pointing a thumb down the hallway. Scottie looked down the hallway behind him before meeting his eyes again.

"I hate to be a bother but…"

"Come on I'll show you where it is." Colby said with a grin.

"Thank you so much." Scottie gave him a wide smile. The two started down the hallway.

"How long have you been working for the company?"

"Nine years."

"No way. Did you start when you were 12?"

"You're sweet. I started at 18."

"Starting at 18 is impressive."

"Thank you. I got extremely lucky." Colby pointed to a door that held a sign 'HHH and Stephanie' on it. "We have arrived." Colby knocked on the door. A moment later, a little girl answered the door.

"Aunt Scottie."

"Aunt?" Colby asked. Scottie picked up the little girl.

"How's my best girl?" Scottie asked holding 9 year old Murphy up on her hip.

"Good." Murphy looked at Colby. "Hi Sethie."

"Hey Murph the Smurf." Colby greeted tickling the little girl's belly. Murphy let out a loud laugh, throwing her head back. Stephanie came to the door a second later.

"Hey guys." Stephanie reached out to hug Scottie. "You made it."

"A couple wrong turns but here I am." Scottie said. She looked at Colby. "Along with being clumsy, I have no sense of direction." Stephanie looked back and forth between the two.

"Paul just step out for second. He didn't think you would be here till later. He should be back in a few minutes and I know two other little girls who will be excited to see you."

Scottie turned to Colby. "Thank you for walking me down here."

"No problem. I did plow into you and knock you on the ground. It was the least I could do."

"What happened?"

"We were both distractedly walking around the corner and ran right into each other."

"I have to go get ready for tonight." Colby said, "It was nice meeting you Scottie."

"You too, Colby."

"Steph, Murph." Colby nodded before leaving the three women. Scottie eyes followed his form all the way down the hallway. Letting her eyes drift a little low till a gentle cough caught her attention. She turned at faced Stephanie.

"What?"

"Nothing." Stephanie opened the door to the room and Scottie followed her inside.

Colby was sitting in catering with Jon Good aka Dean Ambrose, Renee Paquette aka Renee Young, and Joe Anoa'i aka Roman Reigns. He looked up from his phone and saw Scottie enter. Colby excused himself from the table. Scottie had her back to him as she fixed herself a cup of coffee. It gave Colby a moment to take her in.

"Meeting go ok?" Colby asked. Scottie jumped, spilling coffee over her hand.

"Ouch."

"Shit. I'm sorry." Colby grabbed some napkins. "I didn't mean to scare you."

"Then you might not want to sneak up silently behind people." Scottie said.

"First I run you over and now I've burned you." Colby ran a hand through his hand, pushing it back away from his eyes.

"One more accident and I might start to think you're doing it on purpose." Scottie teased. She was happy to see Colby give her a small smile. "My meeting went fine by the way. Just a quick direction meeting for the current storylines."

"Anything about me?"

"Maybe. Maybe not." Scottie laughed.

"Can I ask you something a little personal?"

"Sure."

"Are you related to the McMahon's or the Lévesque's?"

"Neither." Scottie said, "Craziest story of my life. I was in my freshman year of college at and I went to a live show. Paul was doing a meet and greet. I used that moment to tell him all the things he was doing wrong with the currently talent he had. Instead of blowing me off. He asked me to wait around till the he was done and then I met with Vince. They were super impressed with my ideas and Vince offered me a job. I worked closely with Paul while I finished college. By extension, I got really close to Stephanie and the girls. Once he was named the Executive Vice President of Talent and Live Event. I was promoted to Senior Vice President of Creative in 2012."

"Senior VP. I thought I was impressed before."

"Youngest one ever in the company."

"Didn't your parents have an objections about you working for a big company while in college?"

"My dad died when I was 17 and my mom was never around." Scottie said.

"Sorry." Colby said.

"Don't be." Scottie smiled. "It's been hard work, doing this job and going to college. But I think I've proved myself ok."

"Must have your still here."

"Well that's all thanks to you. Well, you, Jon, and Joe."

"What do you mean?"

"I was kind of the brain behind the Shield. I came to Paul with the idea of a faction of 3 men, totally different but working together as a cohesive unit. He picked you three and the rest was history. You guys really sold it to the fans."

"Wow. I never knew that."

"Surprised it was a woman?" Colby ducked his head, a red blush staining his cheeks.

"A little bit." He answered honestly.

"A lot of people are." Scottie made herself another cup of coffee.

"Scottie." Scottie and Colby turned around at the sound of Paul's voice. "Hey Colby."

"Paul." Colby greeted.

"Steph wants to know if you're staying for the show."

"I don't know."

"You have to stay." Colby said, "It's gonna be a great show."

"Ok." Scottie smiled. Paul's eyes went from Scottie to Colby, back to Scottie.

"If you want, you can watch with Steph and the girls in the dressing room." Paul said breaking the couple's eye contact.

"Sure." Scottie put a lid on her coffee. "Good luck tonight. Be safe out there." Scottie said

"Always." Colby answered. Scottie following Paul out of the catering area. Colby walked back over to the table. Joe, Jon, and Renee were all looking at him. "What?"

"Who was that?"

"Scottie. She's the Senior VP of Creative."

"And how do you know her?" Renee asked

"We ran into each other earlier when she was looking for Paul's dressing room. I'll see you guys later."

Stephanie watched Scottie as Colby's music hit. Scottie watched the brown haired man march his way down to the ring. While Scottie watched the shows, she was always watching for the feel of the crowd. Who they were with or against. What was getting stale. Never had she interacted with a superstar that she had written about before. Scottie found herself trying not to cringe when he did a suicide dive twice out of the ring. Scottie almost jumped from her seat to cheer when she saw Colby standing tall in the ring.

"Didn't Paul tell you about the show?" Stephanie asked.

"You know I don't like it when he tells me who wins matches. It more fun not knowing."

"Hmm." Stephanie went back to her paperwork. Listening to Scottie and her daughters. "Girls, we're going to go in a few minutes. I want you to start cleaning up."

"Ok mommy." Scottie stood up and stretched, checking the time on her watch.

"Speaking of going. I'm gonna head out too. I've got a two hour drive home."

"Be safe. Call me when you get in." Stephanie said.

"I promise."

Scottie grabbed her bag. She gave the girls a hug goodbye and headed out to the parking lot where all the talent was parked. Scottie popped the trunk of her rental car and put her laptop bag in. Closing the truck, Scottie saw Colby walking out of the back. He was rolling his bag behind him. When he spotted her by the car he changed directions.

"Hey. Did you enjoy the show?" Colby asked

"I did. Very entertaining."

"Thank you." Colby shifted the bag on his shoulder. "Are you driving alone?"

"Yeah. I only live about two hours away."

"You'll be getting in around 1am. You sure you'll be ok?"

"I'm a big girl. I'll be fine."

"Lopez, let's go." They heard Jon yell from a nearby SUV.

"Can I see your phone for a minute?"

"Sure." Scottie was confused but she handed him her phone. Colby tapped a few buttons before handing it back.

"Please text me when you get home so I know you're ok."

"Sure. Thank you. Have a good night." Scottie kissed Colby's cheek.

"You too." Colby gave her one more smile before heading towards the SUV. Scottie smiled as she looked down at her phone.

Scottie got home around one in the morning. She slid her bag off her shoulder and slid down to greet the small dog. "Hi Scarlett." She pet the dog behind the ears. "You'll never guess who momma met tonight." Scarlett let out of bark. "Seth Freaking Rollins. How cool is that?" Scottie pulled her phone out of her pocket. Clicking on his contact info.

Hey. Just wanted to let you know I made it home ok. Have a good night.

Scottie didn't expect a reply but a minute later her phone beeped.

Glad ur home ok.

Scottie couldn't help but smile. A smile that didn't leave her face the whole night.

November 3, 2016

Scottie was sitting in her office going over the schedules when her phone beeped. Scottie took off her glasses. She smiled when she saw it was a text from Colby.

I was going to wait another day or two to text you, but I can't wait that long to talk to you. Hope you're having a good day.

It's going ok. One more day till the weekend.

Any good plans for the weekend?

A glass of wine and a good book. I'm kind of boring.

Not possible.

How about you? How's your day going?

Headed to Scotland for Raw

That's right. You're headed to the land of my people.

You're Scottish?

Scottish and Irish. My parents thought they were funny naming my Scotlyn.

It's a beautiful name.

Scottie was thinking of a reply when her office door opened. Her assistant gave her the signal that her meeting was starting soon. She typed out a quick text before gathering her stuff.

Have to go to a meeting. Hope you have a safe flight

Thanks. Have a good meeting.

November 7, 2016

Scottie got comfortable on her couch with her glass of wine. She turned on her TV to the correct channel for Raw. Scarlett jumped up next to her. Scottie ran a hand over Scarlett's hair. She tried to calm her nerves. While texting Colby earlier, she promised that she would watch Raw. Scottie grabbed a note book by her couch. She was jotting down notes while the show played in the background. Scottie looked up when her phone blinked from the coffee table. She was excited to see Colby's match. Scottie cringed as she watched Colby get thrown around the ring. Once the show was over, Scottie was clearing the living room when her phone rang.

You still up?

Scottie couldn't help the grin that spread across her face when she saw Colby's text.

Hey. That was a great match. Are you ok?

Some bruises. Nothing too bad. Glad you enjoyed it.

I did. What are you doing up so early? Isn't it like 4am in Scotland?

Couldn't sleep. What's your favorite color?

Scottie laughed when she ready his question.

I'm a typical girl. I love pink. What about you?

Black. Favorite music.

I love all types of music. I listen to a bit of everything. My favorite is country.

That's it. Our friendship is over. How are you from New England and like country?

I connect to it. Let me guess…you like head banger music.

Head banger?

Now you're disrespecting my music.

You messed with my music first. ;P

What are you five? Sticking your tongue out.

I think I'm going to bed now. Have fun staring at the ceiling.

Scottie shut off the lights to the living room. She headed to the bathroom when her phone lit up.

Come see me in New York when Raw gets there on the 14th?

Scottie picked up the phone from her dresser. The last text caused her to pause. Their text were really fun and easy. Now he was asking her to come to an event. Scottie took a deep breath. Her fingers hovering over the keyboard. Should she take the risk? She enjoyed talking with Colby. She was enjoying getting to know him. The potential for something more, something greater.

OK.
