2 months later

Inside Edition: WWE Superstar Roman Reigns back with ex wife Galina? Becker took to Instagram to upload the picture above, with a caption "Pool days 🤩" The two split almost eight months ago, their divorce being private and closed off to the public. Many thought Roman moved on with also WWE Diva Royce Presley as the pair were frequently spotted together and posting each other on their social media. Presley recently let the public know of her and musician Nick Cannons split after four years together. However Royce has been seen with model and filmmaker Neels Visser, their relationship has not been confirmed nor denied.

"I kinda want to change my hair again." Nikki said while she looked at herself in the mirror.

"No." Brie, Royce, and Liv all disagreed.

"Every time you do, you end up don't liking it and complain you shouldn't have done it." Liv said.

"Wow thanks for the support guys. Bestfriend goals!" Nikki sarcastically remarked. "Anyways, what's up with you and Neels?"

Royce looked up from her phone. "Uh we're really good friends."

"Are you sure just friends because-

"What upppp divas." Dean walked in, followed by Seth, Paige, and Joe.

For the last two months, Royce and Joe have avoided each other as much as they possibly could, which wasn't a lot. Since they worked together, travel almost always on the same flight, stay at the same hotels, and do promos with each other. Avoiding one other was practically inevitable, especially since they had the same friends.

"What up lunatic." Brie chuckled.

"Royce!" Dean yelled and hugged her. "I heard you're doing photo shoots with the pretty boy model."

"You act like you're not a pretty boy yourself." Royce countered. "But yeah we did a photo shoot."

"Can we see? What was it for?" Liv gasped.

"Just a fun little photo shoot, nothing major." She shrugged and opened her camera roll. "Here." Royce passed them her phone.

"You sure you guys aren't dating?" Seth smirked. "Cause these pictures spell 'chemistry.'" He handed Joe the phone, who just looked at them and clenched his jaw.

"Awe I love the third one." Nikki smiled. "I agree with Seth."

"Yeah there's definitely something going on there." Brie nodded her head.

"You guys are both hot." Liv commented. "I am rooting for Reels."

"Reels?" Joe finally spoke up.

"Royce and Neels," Liv looked at him, seeing his confused expression. "Their ship name!"

Joe rolled his eyes.

"That's so cute." Brie smiled. "Reels."

"We should make it trend on Twitter!" Seth suggested, pulling out his phone. "Alright I sent the pictures to myself and I'm a little offended my name is just 'Seth Rollins' in your contacts. So I changed it."

Royce reached over and grabbed her phone. "What are you guys doing?"

"Something." They all typed away on their phones except Joe.

"Check Twitter." Dean smirked and sat back.

Royce hesitantly opened the app and seen her timeline flooded with pictures of her and Neels. The second most trending hashtag worldwide was #MakeReelsRise and #NeelsVisserandRoycePresley

sethrollins: #MakeReelsRise

"I'm going to kill you all!" Royce hissed at them.

"Royce, Joe," Triple H stepped in the room. "Tag team match against Dolph and Mandy in 30 minutes. No getting out of it."

"Great." Joe sighed and briefly looked at Royce. "See you out there."

"I guess I have to go get ready then." She took a deep breath. "Wish me luck."

"Don't kill him, he still owes me twenty bucks!" Dean yelled after her.

"Hey girl." Carmella greeted Royce as she walked to the gorilla.

"Hey Mella." Royce smiled. "Where you going?"

"Me and Truth have to shoot this skit," she explained. "I heard you have a match with Joe tonight." Carmella raised her eyebrow.

"Sadly." Royce shook her head.

"How are you doing after.. Whatever you guys were?"

Royce played with her gloves. "I'm good, getting over it. We weren't exclusive or anything so... But yeah it's just kind of hard when we see each other all the time."

"Yeah I know what you mean. But I see you're getting close to a certain model," Carmella smirked. "I think you should just go for it, Joe's getting back with possessive Galina. I personally think it's time you make some happiness for yourself."

"Wait what do you mean he's getting back with Galina?" She wondered.

"My mom sent me this article; she loves keeping up with the gossip here. I wasn't going to look at it but you were mentioned." Carmella showed Royce her phone. Royce looked at the attached picture of Galina and Joe, which was no doubt recently taken.

She bit her tongue and let out a smile. "Good for him. I better get going before I'm late, see you later."

She quickly walked to the gorilla, trying to figure out why Joe would go back to her. She knew that love would always be there since Galina was the mother to his children and they were together for years before WWE.

"It's about time!" A voice interrupted her thoughts.

"What?" Royce looked up.

"We're on in literally two minutes, where were you?" Joe harshly asked.

"Chill out Joe." Royce shrugged him off. "Go your music is playing!"

He rolled his eyes and went through the curtain. 'Jeez, did he always have an attitude?' Royce wondered.

Moments later, the beat to her song dropped. She pushed her annoying thoughts to the side and walked out. As if in an instant the crowd made her forget all her worries.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Look, people ask me what the future isAll I know is I'll be doin' this

All I know is things are moving quickThat's convenient for me 'cause that's how I live

Now they see me out here movin' upYou don't like me, that makes two of us

Time change, yeah, I can't adjustYo, it's who you are not who you was, oh myYeah, just went to Europe, they said the single is working

I think I'm learning, I am way more than people might think when they look on the surface

What is my purpose? YeahThat is a question that I have been asking myself and it hurts

'Cause it's prolly something I should already know but I don't know it yetI'm tryna grow as a person, woo!

I'm sick of people tellin' people I'm here 'cause of marketing dollars, oh

You think that everything is gonna blow just 'cause you market it harder? NoI got my hands in everything, now they out here tryna get to me

Stop tryna lecture meYou don't compare to my level of thinking, so why do you think you compare to my energy, huh?

Small circle, but the number's growin'Fame called me, I'm like, "How you doin'?"Hung up on him, I ain't ready for it

Already Mandy was staring her down, of course for effect. Royce always hated going against Mandy, behind the scenes she was practically a sweetheart. Dolph winked at Royce, they were good friends backstage, and surprisingly went way back with each other. When Nick couldn't make their red carpet events, Dolph would be her date and she would be his.

"You have the hots for Dolph now?" Joe grumbled while they made their way to the corner.

Royce stepped through the ropes. "God you're really annoying today."

"What? He winked at you."

"Maybe because we've been friends for awhile." She snapped back.

"Whatever." Joe scoffed.

The bell rang and both Mandy and Royce reached over and tagged themselves in.

"What are you doing?" Joe growled.

She didn't reply, instead she stepped in the ring and started to wrestle with Mandy.

The whole match, Joe and Royce tagged themselves in and out. At one point she did a suicide dive, only to push Joe instead. He speared Dolph while Royce had Mandy in an arm bar, resulting in a win for both of them.

"Here are your winners, the team of Roman Reigns and Royce Presley!"

He grabbed her hand and raised their arms together in victory.

"You're bleeding." Joe came closer and brought his hand to the side of her head. "Let's go."

She exited the ring, giving high-fives to some fans on her way out.

"Sit." Joe instructed once they got in his room. He rummaged through the cabinets and pulled out a first aid kit.

"Oww," she jerked her head once the alcohol came in contact with the wound.

He grabbed her face and pulled her back. "Roy hold still."

"It burns." Royce cried. "Ow! Joe!"

"Almost done." He said. "There, finished."

"Thanks." Royce mumbled. "I could've done it myself."

"Just trying to help you out, I know you. You'd just rinse it off in the shower and call it a day." Joe smiled and sat down. "So... You and Neels huh?"

Royce nodded and looked down. "Y-yeah. You and Galina are back together?"

"We've just been hanging out, with the kids and stuff. But we're taking things slow." Joe said.

"Good good. I'm happy for you." Royce softly grinned. "How are the kids?"

"They're really good, getting big." He chuckled. "How is your family?"

"They're good. Ethan is crazy about skateboarding and Grayson is into gymnastics now. Toni is still doing photography and Leila has a boyfriend now." Royce explained.

"A boyfriend?" Joe raised his eyebrows.

"Yeah, a little boyfriend. It's crazy, seems like yesterday she was just 10." She frowned.

"Same thing with Jojo, I keep thinking I'm gonna come home and she's still in diapers. But now she's all grown."

"She'll always be your little girl Joe." Royce smiled at him.

"I know." He sighed.

Royce stood up, "I better get going. Thanks again and uh good match."

"Wait Royce," Joe grabbed her arm. "Uh.. just um.. G-good match."

She nodded at him and walked out.

"What are you up to?" Royce asked Neels.

"Just trust me." Neels giggled. "Okay, open the door."

Royce looked at him and cautiously opened the door. She walked in the room and slightly gasped.

"Neels," she smiled. "Are you serious?"

"Very serious." Neels pulled her closer. "So.. Will you be my girlfriend?"

"Yes!" She kissed him.

"Wasn't too cheesy right?" He smirked.

"It was perfect." Royce laughed.

"NEELS AND ROYCE ARE DATING!" Paige yelled, making all their friends squeal and cheer.

"I knew it!" Seth jumped up. "Joe you owe me fifty bucks!"

"Fifty?!" Dean jumped up too. "Why does he get fifty and I get twenty? That's not fair!"

"We made a bet!" Seth defended.

Joe looked at Royce's post, he shook his head. She really moved on. And he envied her for it.

Galina: You okay? heard your little crush moved on.
