Wrestling One-Shots Volume 5

Will Ospreay

It's AEW Revolution night and you're backstage in the locker room with everyone in the Don Callis family. Don is absent from the locker room, having had left a while ago claiming he had some business to attend to. Hobbs has just come back from his match and is rinsing off in the attached bathroom. And finally, Konosuke is busy lacing up his boots for his match.

"I finished pressing out your jacket, Konosuke." You lift his jacket off the ironing board and present it to him with a smile.

"Thank you, YN." Konosuke grins and takes the jacket from you.

You nod and fold up the board. "Mhm." You hum at him.

Konosuke slips on his jacket and you take a seat in an empty chair to hang out before his match. Takeshita keeps to himself and takes what time he has left before his match to hype himself up quietly. You smile at him are about to pull out your phone when someone knocks on the door.

"I'll get it." You pop out of your seat and walk over to the door.

You pop over to the door and answer it. As soon as you crack the door open you are greeted by an adorable puppy-dog smile and head of curly hair.

"YN. Good to see you again, love. Did you miss me?" Will Ospreay, the man of the hour, greets you with a cheeky smile at the door. "It's been a long time, hasn't it?"

"Will!" You gush and step forward into Ospreay's waiting arms.

Will chuckles as you fall forward into his arms and hug him tightly. He wraps his arms around you and hugs you back just as tight. "I'm so glad that you finally decided to make the move over to AEW!" You step back out of Will's arms after a minute. "And yes, I guess you can say that I missed you." You giggle.

You step back into the locker room and let Will inside as well. Ospreay takes a minute to chat with Konosuke before their match, and he greets Hobbs whose back from showering as well.

Don comes back from whatever supposed meeting he was at and immediately heads over to Will. The pair chat for a few minutes before Callis has to head down to commentary to prepare for the Konosuke vs Ospreay match.

"Do you need anything before your match, Will?" You ask Ospreay after Don heads out again.

"Me? No, I'm alright, love." Will shakes his head, curls bouncing in his face. "So what? Are you like the mum of the group?" He teases you with a laugh.

You giggle and shake your head. "I help out wherever I can." You shrug.

Hobbs chortles from the other side of the room. "She's definitely the mom of the group." He insists.

"I never hear you complaining when I'm ironing your laundry or making sure you've got all your gear before matches." You reply playfully. "I'll let you get dressed, Will." You walk over to the door.

Hobbs starts laughing again as you step out into the hallway. Once you've shut the door Don pops up at the end of the hall and beckons you over to him.

"Don? I thought you were headed down to the commentary table?" You stride down the hall to meet Callis.

"I've got a few minutes." Don replies matter-of-factly. "I wanted to ask you something before Ospreay's match with Konosuke." He informs you.

Your eyebrows raise slightly in surprise and you nod. "Okay. Ask away I guess."

"You and Will. There's some history there, right?" Callis asks you.

"Yeah, sort of." You confirm. "Ospreay and I hung out sometimes back in Japan." You shrug. "We've always been friends. Why?"

Don nods, clearing thinking about something under his shadowed glasses. "Right. Just friends?" He quirks a brow at you.

"I-well-I-Yeah." You stutter. "I'm sorry, why is this relevant?" You narrow your eyes at Callis.

"Right, and does Will know that?" Don keeps up with his questions.

Flabbergasted by Don's interrogation you are at a loss for words. But Don seems uninterested in your surprise and lack of an immediate answer. "Does Will know what, exactly?" You ask him.

"That the two of you are just friends?" Don answers. "Because it seems to me like the kid is grossly smitten with you." He informs you. "Talked about seeing you the whole flight over here."

"He did?" You choke.

Don nods, peering over the rim of his glasses at you. "Mhm. And the blush on your cheeks is telling me that you might share his feelings. Am I wrong?" He asks you plainly.

"Personally, I don't think that's any of your business, Don." You reply in a scoff.

Don remains stoic, as he usually is. He stares at you with a crooked smile and a raised eyebrow.

"I'm not confronting you about anything here, YN." He assures you. "It was just a question. And between us, YN. Well, I think you and Ospreay would make quite the power couple." He smiles at you.

"Right." You nod. "Well I've got stuff to do, so..." You bounce on your heels. "I'll see you after Will and Konosuke's match."

Don nods and turns around to has back down to the commentary table. You hang around in the hall and wait for Will to finish up changing.

Ospreay finishes getting changed and heads out into the hall with Konosuke.

"Alright! You both look good!" You compliment the pair. "You two all ready to head out and get this done?" You ask them both.

Konosuke nods and walks off since his entrance is first. You walk with Will down to the tunnel and chat with him.

"Good luck out there, Will." You offer Ospreay some kind words.

"I don't suppose you'd come out with me, would you, love?" Will turns and looks down at you. "It always pays to have a pretty lady out with you.' He teases you with a cheeky grin.

You giggle and shake your head. "I think that you'll be okay." You insist.

"A kiss for good luck then?" Will presses on. "Just on the cheek?"

"Fine." You roll your eyes playfully and lean forward. You plant a chaste kiss on Will's cheek. "Good luck. You'll need it against Konosuke." You tease him.

Ospreay laughs and heads through the tunnel. You watch him disappear and shake your head. Maybe Don is onto something after all.
