It was over – just like that. One of the greatest WWE World Championship reigns, if not, THE greatest reign in company history had come to an abrupt and undeserved end. Just like Nikki’s iconic Women’s Championship reign. AJ rolled out of the ring and walked with a slight limp backstage. Thankfully, the first sight that graced his baby blues was the face of the Fearless One. He immediately looped his arms around the toned waist of his lover, holding her close as she kissed him ever so tenderly. In all seriousness, the words that so passionately flowed out of her mouth meant the absolute world to him. So much so that he pressed another loving kiss to those full lips of the Bella twin, uncaring of those around who saw – especially the folks giving them dirty looks over their relationship. “ I know, my love. “ AJ’s simple response was exhausted and slightly defeated. “ Let’s jus’ get outta here, the winner a’ the rumble is now John’s problem. “
Once he was finished saying what he needed to say, the Phenomenal One planted yer another passionate kiss to her lips before gently breaking the embrace and heading back to his own locker room. AJ quickly showered and got dressed, not wanting to spend more time here than absolutely necessary. Making his way to the parking garage, the southern man texted Nikki, who was most likely already waiting, that he’d be there in a couple of minutes. The sound of the rental car unlocking could be heard as the brunette man made his approach, giving the Bella twin a smile. “ You ready t’ get on outta here? “
They both were defeated tonight, but nothing would change how they feel about each other. It wasn’t the first time for them to be kissing in public, even in front of their co – workers, although, they still were giving the pair dirty looks. Without a care in the world, the brunette kissed back, relishing in each touch, finding reassurance and peace in having her lover close. Nodding her head, Nikki let AJ go from their embrace, watching him leave with a mixed sense of relief and worry, not only for her lover, but for them both. At this moment they both were unsure of what their future holds, only time would tell, making everything more complicated then it already was.
While her boyfriend was showering and changing his clothes, the Bella Twin went ahead to her locker room to grab the suitcase and a duffel bag with her gear to shorten the time of being in the arena. Bidding her goodbyes to everyone in the passing, Nikki was in the parking lot and by their rental in ten minutes, unlocking the car to place their luggage into the trunk. Her phone vibrated in the pocket of her jeans, signaling about the incoming message, which after checking came out to be from the southern man, telling about him being on his way. In a few minutes he joined her, a smile on his face, which in return made her smile too. «Yeah, ready as I ever will be. Leaving sounds really good, especially with everybody still staying there to watch the rumble match. How about getting something to eat? Stopping by somewhere while we drive and just forget about tonight for the time being?» Throwing her bags in the trunk, she waited for the male to do the same and made her way over to the front of the car, sliding into the passenger seat, while AJ took the drivers seat. «Tuesday would be hard, but we will get through it», leaning over the console, the brunette kissed her man softly, giving his forearm a squeeze. «Anything particular you want to eat?»
