AN: I do not own any of the characters, unfortunately.

Bayley let out a huge sigh as she walked backstage, she had just beat Sasha Banks for the NXT Women's Championship. She did it, it was her childhood dream since she was 11, she let a few tears out. Time just seemed to slow down as she took everything in, she knew there were people that she needed to see and speak to, but she couldn't move.

"Bayley!" She turned her head to see her friend Carmella running towards her before she knew it, she was pulled into a huge hug from Big Cass, Enzo, and Carmella.

"We are so proud of you; how does it feel?" asked Carmella

"I'm in shock, I wanted it so bad, but Sasha was relentless, and I really didn't think that I would ever get the upper hand." Bayley looked up at them, and saw that they had a shocked look upon their face, "what?" Little did she know there was someone standing behind her with a less than pleased face.

"You really don't give yourself much credit, do ya lass?" The thick Irish Brogue accent was enough to make Bayley realize that Finn Bálor was standing directly behind her. She turned around and tried to slow her racing heart, this was the guy she had a huge thing for since he stepped foot in NXT.

"Um..."

"No, Bayley you had a great match out there, and even now most of social media is blowing up cause of Sasha and you. You deserve that title, Bayley."

"Yeah Bayley, you are one of the hardest working people I know. Don't let anyone make you doubt yourself." She saw that the person that said that was the very person she just beat, Sasha.

"Thank you."

Sasha smiled, and hugged Bayley, "but you better believe that I want my rematch." Everyone standing around them laughed, and then they slowly started walking away.

Soon it was just Bayley and Finn standing there, "Good luck on your match tonight."

Finn smiled at her, and she swore she could see the twinkle in eyes. "Thanks, Bayley, I appreciate it. It's my first ladder match so we'll see."

She smiled at him, and before she could lose the courage, she reached up and hugged him. Bayley realized now that she shouldn't have done it, but before she could pull away, Finn wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her back. "You are an amazing woman Bayley, don't ever forget that." Finn pulled away then kissed the top of her head and turned to walk towards the gorilla. Before he went through the curtains, he turned back and winked at Bayley then disappeared.

Bayley stood there for what seemed like forever, heart racing and her mind was racing. "Girl? You okay?" She turned around to see Sasha walking toward her.

"Yeah, just talking to Finn about his match with Kevin Owens."

Sasha smiled, "You were talking to Finn?"

Bayley blushed and said, "well yeah."

"What happened to my shy Bayley girl?"

Bayley shrugged her shoulders and started to walk toward Sasha, so they could go get changed. "This shy girl needed to realize that she can't get anywhere being the pushover."

Sasha smiled, and linked her arms through Bayley's, "girl I am so proud you." They giggled as they walked to toward the changing room.

Once in the changing room. Bayley quickly showered and got dressed. She changed into a black and red wrap around dress, with some black heels. While Sasha was showering, Bayley fixed hair to a slight curl and did very light makeup, while paying attention to the match going on the TV.

She watched as Finn did his finishing move from the top of the ladder, "What the hell are you doing Finn?" She whispered to herself as she saw that he hurt his ankle, "get up and climb the fucking ladder."

She was so into the match she didn't hear Sasha come up behind her, which has been happening a lot lately. "He'll be fine girl." Bayley turned her eyes back to the screen, "And still the NXT Champion…Finn Bálor!"

She heard the crowd go wild, "well it looks like you two will spending a lot more time together."

"Yeah, I guess, with all the press."

"Maybe if you're lucky you'll end up between the sheets."

"SASHA!" Bayley blushed hard as she stood up and stretched.

The two girls hung out for about an hour because Bayley wanted to avoid the press, but she knew it was going to be no use. She heard her phone chime, she reached into her bag. 'Finn- I kind of need you out here for this damn press thing.' She sighed, "well it's my cue to leave. The press junket is about to start."

Sasha stood up also and hugged her, "good luck girlie. You look hot as always. He won't know what hit him."

Bayley walked out of the locker room, and down the hall, not really noticing all the looks she got from the guys of NXT. She heard whispers, "Damn is that Bayley?" "I didn't know she could look like that?" It made her feel good that people, well guys, in general, took notice of her. It wasn't like she had guys lining up around the block for her. Besides the one guy she did have a thing for, well it probably would never happen.

After walking through the halls for what seemed like forever, she finally got to the conference room. She stood outside the door and took a deep breath, 'ok Bayley. You can do this. Just walk in there, do the interviews and get out.' She opened the door and walked in. Finn was already talking to some of the reporters when he heard the door and in walked Bayley. His breath caught in his throat, she looked amazing. He smiled at her as she walked over toward him with her championship title resting on her shoulder.

Finn was dressed in an all-black outfit, that made his eyes stand out. Bayley walked over to him and he said, "There she is ladies and gentlemen, you're new NXT Women's Champion Bayley."

Bayley blushed and smiled at him, "Well I was trying to sneak in here, thanks, Finn."

The room erupted into laughter, "Finn, Bayley? Can we get a picture?" Both Bayley and Finn looked at each other, and Finn wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her to him.

She stumbled a little and it ended up being a great picture. "You look amazing." She heard whispered in her ear, it sent chills down her spine. She looked up at him and leaned up, just close enough for her lips to touch his ear, "as do you." It happened all so fast because she quickly pulled away a little.

After a couple pictures, they all sat down at the table, "We only have time for a couple questions, so whose first."
