       ❛ now the both of us are out. damn you were suppose to be taking care of me and now i have to take care of you. i’m kidding by the way, aha. ❜

        ❝ this is a coincidence i didn’t want. though... i guess this means         we’ll get to see each other even more now, which is kinda a plus. ❞

“Course it will” Becky says soothingly looking over at him “Look at Seth and Cesaro’s surgery. That clinic is the best and you’ll be back in no time”

      that gets john to smile,            ❝ i’m hoping so. still can’t help but to feel a bit nervous about it all---            but i’m looking forward to coming back even stronger. ❞

        ❛ i’m hella sad now. you JUST came back. ❜

       ❝ i know, right? guess fate just doesn’t want me wrestling just yet. ❞

“Look on the bright side. You won’t have to hobble round on crutches,” 

        ❝ you call that a bright side? c’mon, we all know you’re the one helpin’         those crutches, not the other way around.         and honestly, what matters is that i’m hurt and i gotta recover. and fast, too. ❞

“ – Hey, I’ve heard. I’m sorry man, you just came back and all, just to be out for god knows however long. – Did they tell you how bad it is?”

      ❝ guess it... wasn’t the right time for me to come back.       but i’m not really sure how bad it is. it just hurts like hell       and that’s why i wanna get this surgery done and over       with. the faster i recover, the sooner i can get back in       the ring. ❞

“Hey, well at least you know that I missed you!”

          ❝ that’s true! and thank you for that! it’s nice to know you missed me. ❞

“Aye but what you’re doing had to be fun right, I mean you were gone for a while?” She enquires with a tilt of her head “And i have faith in that, I mean you brought it out the shadows once you can do it again”

      ❝ yeah, it was fun. real fun. i really needed that break. ❞            when it came down to it, it hadn’t been bad at all,       ❝ if only i can take it back. ‘berty has is own little band of goons now.       i gotta watch out. ❞

“Aw, well we missed you a lot, too”

      ❝ ehh, i’m sure some people missed me. and that’s what counts!       being back is a good feeling. ❞

“Welcome back champ. It’s been sorta quiet around here with ya gone” Becky shrugs “Sorry ya first match back didnt go to plan”

       ❝ man, if you think it was quiet, you should have been in my shoes... ❞             a chuckle,        ❝ no, it’s fine. i’ll get my us title back. then i’ll make it relevant yet again. ❞

“Welcome back, John! Hope ya didn’t miss us too much.”

      ❝ awh, how could i not miss a smile like that, huh?       ---- i actually missed this place a lot. ❞
