What a ridiculous week it's been. I mean, he asked me to marry him. Marriage? Am I ready for that? I have way too much going on, but I do like Ted a lot. I...I may even love him. This could not have come at a worse time right now. The last thing I need is my mind clouded by the aspect of marrying someone right now.
But he's such a great guy. He does so much for me. He cares. He listens. He sometimes laughs at my jokes. He's almost Herman, except he's actually human. I guess those times where I thought it my head and wished for a more relieable person than a gargoyle statue were finally answered. He's such a sweet guy.
But there's a dark side to him I fear. I don't want to believe it, but maybe Sydney was right about him all along. Maybe he's doing something weird. I don't know, but do I really want to find out? Can I really be that paranoid about it? This is a good thing...why do I have the sudden feeling that everything is going to end up screwed up in the end?
Maybe I'm overthinking it, you know? Maybe he's got the best intentions, and I'm judging him. He's not afraid of commitment, that I can tell you. But there's still so much I don't know...And I need a clear head before all this goes down.
It's blurry enough as it is.
I move on, another day, another title defense, another glimpse into what the battlefield will become sooner or later.
AJ Stark. My opponent. A man who has become an enemy when I already have enough as it is. AJ took it upon himself to challenge me for my Sin City title right before we were to team together. It makes me think that he never had any intention on fighting by my side if not for his own selfish reasons. He wanted to gain my trust in order to betray me later. That's fine in the long run. Because all he did was prove that I'm better off on my own fighting this fight.
AJ, I don't really care that you wanted this match, all you had to do was ask, but your timing needs to be clearly worked on a little. In hindsight, you cost us that match with it. I'm not making excuses, I'm stating the facts.
Now we come to this 2 out of 3 falls match for the title, and you will come charging in headstrong like you always do, that's fine and dandy, but I'm going to prove to you, that I am the top female wrestler in this company, and I'm the best champion. MPW saw fit to throw Bliss my way mere weeks after I beat her for the title in a re-match. And since then, the odds are slowly stacking against me, but that's okay. I've fought worse, and I've beaten worse. I will once again prove how good I am, by defeating you and retaining this championship. I see that MPW is slowly running out of challengers to throw against me, and AJ, you are going to be just that, another challenger. Another opponent determined to knock me off course.
But therein lies the problem. I cannot be knocked off course. Not now, not by you. You have been having your problems as of late, and I don't see how you can defeat me when you cannot defeat Bliss. But no, you wanted this shot. Now you've got it. My only hope is that you do no embarrass yourself again like you've been doing. I have too much work left to do here to be stopped now. I have a mission, a goal, a desire, and that is to see the AOA wiped off the face of MPW. And you are keeping me from that AJ.
I have to now go out and deal with you, as opposed to dealing with what I need to. I shouldn't be having to stop off and deal with minor problems when there so many big one left to clear. What is it you want to accomplish AJ? Prove your better than I am. Because you're a man? I don't know what it is, but I'm going to put an end to it at Ruthless Assault when I beat you and retain this title. I cannot stop when I'm so close to getting done what I need to.
Also, I find it pretty damn funny that Bliss is now getting a word title match. Who exactly did she beat, by the way? I guess it really does pay to be a member of that group, you get title matches whenever you feel like I guess.
I should be in that spot AJ. Instead, I'm here, with you, and I have only you to blame for it. You are messing up this whole operation. Your selfish actions have led to this nonsense that we are going through. Get it together, get your head in the game. I said it before, I'll say it again, you have three choices:
Lead.
Follow.
Or get out the way.
And right now, you are in the way AJ. You're standing between me and my mission. You are on the wrong side of this war. So, you're going to become a casualty even though you're not really an enemy. You're simply one by proxy. And I don't need that right now. I have more than enough distractions as it is.
Like, what should my wedding dress look like?
No. No. Focus. Do you really want to marry that guy? It's too much.
Just...get back to AJ Stark.
AJ, 2 out of 3 falls gives you a bit of a cushion, since beating you once simply won't be enough. But trust me, I've got more than enough ready for you that 2 falls will be plenty. And if by some miracle you get a fall, I'll be ready for 3. You got that in you big man?
We're about to find out aren't we?
So you soon.
[ Sydney is pacing back and forth, Roxi is seating looking nervous. ]
Sydney - He wants you to marry him?
Roxi - That's what he said.
Sydney - This is big.
Roxi - I know.
Sydney - Like, really big.
Roxi - I said I know.
Sydney - So, what are you going to do?
Roxi - I've known him for almost 2 months. I don't know what I'm going to do. What do you think?
Sydney - No. Nope. Out of the question.
Roxi - You think so?
Sydney -Of course, who am I going to bust skulls in with huh?
Roxi - It's nice that you think about my needs.
Sydney - I try.
Roxi - Sydney, it seems kinda fast doesn't it? I mean, two months? That's weird.
Sydney - Yeah. A little suspicious if you ask me.
Roxi - Suspicious?
Sydney - Yeah. Just, out of the blue, after a week of not talking to you, he just up and proposes?
Roxi - He had to think it over.
Sydney - Don't be blind, Rox. This is serious.
Roxi - What do you mean?
Sydney - Oh, I think you know what I mean.
Roxi - *sigh* For the last time, He's not a double agent.
Sydney - He could be.
Roxi - He's not. I've never seen him raise his voice for crying out loud.
Sydney - Or...
Roxi - No, He's not a British spy.
Sydney - I'm just saying the possibility is out there.
Roxi - Seriously, do you think...it could work?
Sydney - You leaving every night after he goes to sleep to fight crime? Him disappearing every night after you leave too? This sounds perfect.
Roxi - Sometimes, I hate it when you make sense.
Sydney - You love me.
Roxi - I do.
[ Vision appears on the computer screen behind them.
Vision - I'm not interrupting anything am I?
Sydney - Roxi is about be a on that real housewives series.
Roxi - Shut up Z!
Vision - What are you talking about?
Sydney - You see, -
Roxi - Z, Be quiet. Listen Vision, I met this guy, and we've...well we've hit it off pretty well.
Sydney - She means they had sex!
Vision - ...Oh...
Roxi - I'm going to murder you in your sleep.
Sydney - ... Love you.
Roxi - So, anyway, we've been dating for two months and...last week, he...kinda proposed to me.
Vision - Wow.
Roxi - Yeah, so I'm kind of torn about this. I mean, I like him...
Sydney - I still say it's bad idea.
Vision - I see your points. Both of you. I can't say I fully support this idea either. You really don't know this guy.
Roxi - He's a great guy.
Vision - But how much do you really know about him?
Roxi - I know enough.
Sydney - It's 2 to 1, We win. You're not marrying him.
Vision - Stop it, Sydney.
Roxi - YOU were the one who set me up with him!
Sydney - I know...I just...didn't think he would go this far.
Vision - Roxi, ultimately, the choice is yours. But you need to be aware of the dangers.
Roxi - I get it. Neither of you want to see me happy.
Sydney - No! Well, sort of. But really, no.
Vision - You're not helping Sydney.
Roxi - I...I just don't know about this, I need to think.
[ With that, She walks away and out of the apartment. ]
Sydney - ... You think it was something I said?
Vision - It's literally everything you say.
Sydney - ... hmmph. I love you too Vision.
Vision - You are the worst.
