It was a strange feeling when you knew something in your gut and yet simultaneously never
saw  it  coming  from  a  mile away. It felt like you were connecting the final piece of a puzzle
just  as  you  were  hit  by  a  semi-truck. And Becky Lynch felt the way her head swam as a
warmth  tingled across her skin as Sami admitted he had a ‘thing’ for her. It only grew as he
stammered  out  a  clarification  that  was completely unnecessary, and from the look on his
face  he knew that but was too nervous about the silence that threatened to linger after it. It
wasn’t  as  if she was TRYING to leave him in suspense — it was just a lot to process! He’d
been  by  her  side through developmentals, both fearing they’d be stuck there forever. He’d
become  one of her best friends. And she couldn’t help but wonder if every time she sought
him  out  or went to him for comfort or congratulations or just wanted to spend time with him,
it  was  because  she  felt  the  same.  She had a crush on Sami Zayn. “ I like you — and, I-I
guess  I  always  figured  it  was the way I liked any of the guys backstage, and I’m only now
realizing  that  maybe it wasn’t. That maybe I liked you the same way I liked Jimmy Walsh in
Third Year, though he was never really into me and I ended up making out with Colin to spite
him,  and  I’m  really  babbling  now so if you could stop me at any point in time before I start
digging a hole to get back to Ireland.

            SURPRISES COME LIKE NATURE TO THE GINGER now —- she said the feelings were RECIPROCATED. Did she ever have any suspicions of how she felt about him as well – ? Different questions that popped in his mind regarding the matter come in FLEETING flashes, though nothing seems to follow through to his mouth, nothing is voiced; only silence on his end. Despite this UNFAVORABLE situation —- her stuttering, her rambling, he can’t help but laugh ( though lukewarm it may be ) it can’t be avoided given how ADORABLE she just was,.something about her words light a FIRE in his  ( SOUL that ignites into a BURNING FLAME — driving his MOTIVATIONS to an all-time high.       “Alright, alright     I got ‘cha. Shhh.”       he assured her, lightly tugging her hand while bringing her forth, wrapping her in his arms, to where his hand cupped to the back of her neck beneath her longer strands, while the other had caressed over her back, resting his head atop of hers.      “You’re adorable, y’know.”      His words voiced through her hair, as a faint smile grew against her hairline, giving it a little kiss as a shaky yet sturdy breath had eased through his flared nostrils.
