After Y/N's match, he was escorted to medical, to have tests done on his knee just like last week.
He had just finished the tests when Rhea barged in, worry evident on her face.
Y/N: Rhea, before you say anything, I will be fine for next week's tournament match.
Rhea: Screw the tournament. How's your knee doing?
She said more concerned about the person who she had developed feelings for.
She didn't know what those feelings were, whether it was friendship or something more, but she knew she had started caring for Y/N's wellbeing more than the Championship opportunity.
Y/N: I'll be good, I just need a couple of days and some ice. Right, Doc?
He said with a small smile.
Doctor: Yeah, just keep it rested. I'll leave you two here.
The doctor left as Y/N looked at Rhea and asked.
Y/N: How did Riddle and Chelsea do?
He said wanting to know, because if Riddle and Chelsea Green won tonight and won against Y/N and Rhea next week they were tied going into their final match.
Rhea: They lost, so if they lose to us next week we only have to win against Johnny Gargano and Candice Lerae and we win the whole thing.
Y/N smiled. Y/N and Rhea were so close to being No.1 Contenders again.
Y/N: Hey, I was going to get a bite to eat to celebrate our victory tonight, do you want to come with me?
Rhea: Like a date?
Rhea asked, wanting to know.
Rhea would have liked it to be a date but she didn't want to make things weird by acting like it was a date when it was just a friendly meal between friends.
Y/N thought about it. Did he want it to be a date? Did she want it to be a date?
Y/N tried to read Rhea's face but couldn't tell so he decided to play it safe.
Y/N: No, j-just will be two f-friends hanging out.
Rhea: We are friends, right?
Rhea thought it was a start, a lot of people turned from friends into something more.
She wondered if she would be on the sidelines as she watched Y/N move on after the tournament when he wouldn't have a reason to be around her anymore.
Y/N: I would say we are. That's saying something, I've always had a problem making friends even when I was a kid and even now I only have four friends here. You, Damian, Cathy Kelley and Riddle.
Rhea: Seriously, only four?
She thought he would have more than that, Damian did tell her he had trouble trusting people but it was another thing to hear it from the horse's mouth.
Y/N: I'm not the trusting type but for some unknown reason even though I barely know you, I still feel that I can trust you.
Rhea: Well, I trust you too.
In a restaurant, Y/N was sitting down with Rhea as they ate. Y/N had one of his french fries before saying.
