(msg): I Don't Know How It Could When Your Daughter Is More Upset About This Then I've Ever Seen Her.

she had heard it come out of the young man's mouth, and she probably didn't start breathing until she felt malaki's hand on her back to move her and follow with punk and himself. she was openly apart of his circle, but to what extent no one really knew. the divorce had hit her like a lightning strike, and maybe she allowed herself to hope.

"and you think he won't? not after this, not after he had to break up a fight? the biggest thing is praying he didn't hear what jack said." she crossed her arms over her chest, alone with him in the locker room now. because the reality of what happened was coming to her in waves. her body felt very clammy in that moment. "this is it isn't it?"

@powertobite sent — " you were right there ! don't tell me you did nothing ! "

that was the problem — punk was there and he still did nothing. he couldn’t risk doing something when the ink on the divorce papers hadn’t dried yet, nor could he risk upsetting joe, so it was the safest option for him to do nothing even if it killed him. he was already dealing with the consequences of his actions in his newly appointed ex-wife filing for divorce, but he really couldn’t deal with not being able to see azin because of his actions.

“i hate to be the bearer of bad news, but…” he sheepishly rubbed the back of his neck, unable to meet her gaze. “joe was right there. he would’ve kicked my ass.”

my computer finally bit it and matt could not fix it. thankfully we kinda knew this was gonna happen and I had saved up to purchase a new one in the meantime.

this being said, I did lose photoshop and all my icons, I'm still undecided if I'll be getting the items off the old PC. so my already barebones style is gonna be worse. i do have some old gif icons on my external harddrive so I am using them. and I am playing around with affinity photo and I think I can make do, I refuse to do a monthly payment to photoshop. if that tells you how long I've had my copy of PS.

i never stopped thinking about you.

i didn't realize how good i had it until you were gone.

you were always on my mind.

so... what are we?

what we had was perfect.

i should have begged you to stay.

do you regret how it happened?

i want to keep trying. for us.

i replay our final argument in my head all the time.

after all this time? really?

i made a lot of mistakes. i said things i wish i could take back.

i didn't think you'd keep that.

i never forgot that night.

why do you keep looking at me like that?

you have no idea what you do to me.

for a while i saw other people, but none of them were you.

of course i remembered. how could i forget?

this place always makes me think of you.

i'm not giving up on what we had.

can we even go back to the way it used to be?

i haven't been back there since our first date.

of course i kept it. it reminds me of you.

i can't breathe without you.

i had a ring and everything.

no one ever made an impact like you did.

you were really one in a million.

i tried dating. i just couldn't get you out of my head.

i never fell out of love with you.

you were so good to me, and i blew it.

do you want to go out on a date? see what happens?

i really messed things up, didn't i.

i wish i could take it all back.

i've always loved you. always.

nothing feels right since you left.

the sight of you leaving is burned into my brain.

do you have regrets?

you sound like you're still in love with me.

would you ever consider taking me back?

i never moved on. not for a minute.

it was always you.

that didn't change how i feel.

i'll be better this time. i've learned from my mistakes.

i feel like i haven't seen you in ages.

you think you can just walk back into my life and act like nothing happened?

maybe i'm still in love with you.

you're everything to me. you always have been.

i never should have said that. i regret it all.

we're different people now.

what if we tried being friends?

i haven't smiled since you left me.

everything got colder when you left.

you could move back in with me, you know.

i still want you just as badly as i did back then.

i never want to let you go. not again.

things didn't work out with them.

i can't function without you.

if you had asked her why she did it, why she was so loyal to tyson and why she refused to leave his side, the truth is she couldn't answer you. it just felt right in her soul. past relationships from both ends might have made her a little slow to ever admit feelings but when she did? it was forever. but they still kept things very private and personal, even to the point she kept her own house. even if she hadn't seen it in weeks. to japan with him, then back on the road with him before somehow just without asking or setting it ending back in his house too. "officially?" she asked, her forehead against his, "I think you're right."

@powertobite: "don't tell anyone, but i love you."

It wasn’t the first time he heard those three words from her, but regardless it made him smile each and every time she said it, as if it had been. Throughout his time apart from wrestling, she had been there for him every step of the way, for the little things like going to the Pharmacy for him, to being by his bed side night after night, when he was in the hospital for weeks at a time. Tyson didn’t think it was possible for him to love her any more, but somehow she managed to find a way every single day, just by being her. “Since we’re sharing secrets, I have one for you. I love you too.” He leaned in a bit as he went on to say. “—and to be honest, I think it’s bout time you moved in with me.”
