*So Here is my new Roman Reigns Story. I hope that you like it*

*I do not own anyone in this story except Jay, Teagan and Gina.

Joe and I are sitting outside at his parents' house the night before our high school graduation. He's been my best friend throughout the last 4 years. Even though he has a girlfriend we have crossed the line a bit and I became that other girl; the one he sees when he's not with his girlfriend Gina. I'm not proud of my actions but it is what it is. There's no going back now the damage is done and besides his girlfriend is a major bitch. I don't know how he puts up with her or why he would even want to. I hate to be that other girl but I do love Joe. I hope for so much more with him but right now Gina has him in her grasp. "Can you believe we're graduating high school tomorrow?" I ask as I am cuddled up in his arms in the cool air in the early month of June.

"I can't believe it," he says with a soft smile as I feel his soft lips on my neck as he tightens his grip around me. "It feels just like yesterday that we started 9th grade and now after tomorrow night it's all going to be over. Then we're off to college. I wish we could go to the same school. I was hoping that it would work out that way but Gina wanted me to go to Georgia Tech with her and they gave me a full scholarship to play football so I can't complain. I just wish things were different you know what I mean, Teagan?"

"I wish things were different too," I say. "And you know what I'm talking about."

"I know what you're saying," he says as he turns me to face him as he takes my hands into his and looks at me with his grey eyes. "But, Teagan, I can't tell her."

"You think after two years she doesn't know what goes on between us? Don't you think you should tell her?"

"Teagan, I'm sorry," he says as I look into his eyes with my bright blue eyes. I can see it in his eyes that something is bothering him and I see the sadness. "I don't know how I want to say this," he says nervously as I feel his palms sweating in my own.

"What's wrong?" I ask. "What's going on, Joe?"

"This between you and me," he says, "it can't happen anymore. I love you, Teagan but what we're doing isn't right."

"It isn't right?" I ask as I feel my anger quickly rising. "It's been 2 years and right now you just decide that it isn't right? It hasn't been right the whole time. I love you, Joe but I think you need to break up with Gina and let us have our own thing. We get along a lot better than you and Gina do. I would never order you around or treat you the way she does. She's a bitch, Joe, you deserve so much better. I'm trying to give you better. You need to realize she wants you for your dad's money not for you. I want you for you. Joe, Please just break up with her. We're graduating tomorrow."

"It's not that easy, Teagan," he says as he pushes a piece of my blonde hair behind my ear and smiles at me sending an electric shock right through me. He is absolutely gorgeous with his black hair, his beautiful grey eyes, his large arms and his full beautiful lips. "I wish it was that easy."

"It is that easy. All you have to do is say, 'Gina this isn't working out we need to break up.' I don't want to keep being that other girl. I'm tired of hiding what we have, Joe. I hate it so much. I'm tired of having to duck Gina in the hallways because we're scared she's going to catch us holding hands and I'm tired of always having to hide in your room when she shows up here unexpectedly. It's not fair to me, Joe. It's not fair at all. I can't be that other girl."

"Teagan," he says as I see tears forming in his eyes. "It really isn't that easy and believe me I tried to do it. I was going to do it until she said the words I have been fearing the most."

"What words, Joe?"

"That she's pregnant," he says, "Gina is pregnant."

"What?" I ask with shock. "What do you mean she's pregnant?"

"I mean she has a baby inside of her, Teagan. I don't know how it happened we've been extremely careful but she just told me a couple nights ago."

"So what does this mean?" I ask. "What does it mean for you two and what does it mean for us?"

"It means I'm going to marry her and take care of my own child," he says with a tear flowing down his cheek.

"And I guess that leaves me in the dark?" I ask as my own eyes blur over as tears form in my eyes.

"We can still be friends, Teagan, but we can't do anything more. What's going on now can't happen anymore. I'm sorry. I love you, Teagan but she's pregnant with my baby. I have to take responsibility. I'm going to marry her, stand by her and get through school so I can become what I always wanted to be; a CEO. I wish everything was different, Teagan," he says as I pull my hands out of his as I feel a tear fall down my cheek.

"I wish things were different too," I say, "They should be," I say standing up. "I care about you, Joe she doesn't. I have supported you all through high school every time you complained about her I was there. The best I got from you was a bunch of random nights of having secret sex and always having to hide our feelings for each other in public. I don't know, Joe. I guess this is what I get for falling in love with my best friend and for caring about him. Then you say we can be friends like it's easy to just forget about my feelings for you. If I can't be your lover I can't be friends with you. I'm sorry, Joe," I say as I wipe my tears away. "I'm sorry. Maybe it is best we're graduating tomorrow and then in the fall you're off to Georgia Tech and I'm off to NYU. We'll be far enough apart that I don't have to worry about running into you."

"Teagan," he says as his voice cracks as he rises to his feet. "Please don't do this."

"I have to, Joe. This is the best thing. I would be friends with you but it's TOO hard. It would be too difficult. I would want so much more. You're going to have a family. I don't want to be there watching you live the life you should be living with me with someone else. It would be too hard. Good luck tomorrow, Joe. I have to go."

"Teagan," he says as I walk away with tears streaming from my eyes. I want to turn back around and run into his arms but it's better to cut our ties off now. As hard as it is for me to just walk away from him it's just the best thing for me to do. "Teagan, please don't go," he begs as his voice cracks. If my heart hadn't shattered already it would have just by hearing his sexy deep voice crack. I keep walking and make my way to the car. Just like that Joe and I are done; no love, no friendship; nothing we're just done.

The next day we sat next to each other at graduation in awkwardness. He kept trying to get me to talk to him but I wouldn't. I couldn't talk to him. I could barely look at him without my heart breaking all over again. Graduation night was the last night that I saw Joe or even had the opportunity to talk to him. Shortly after graduation he married Gina and they moved to Georgia so they could go to Georgia Tech in the fall while I sat alone all summer missing my best friend. It was a long lonely summer before I was on my way to NYU where I met the guy of my dreams or supposedly the guy of my dreams, got pregnant my junior year of college and ended up marrying this so called dream guy but later in life I learned he was not my dream guy and that I don't love him like I thought I did but I'm stuck.

***8 YEARS LATER****

"Come on, Serenity," I say to my five year old daughter as I put her food onto the table. "Mommy starts her new job today and I don't want to be late."

"Coming, Mommy," she says as she enters into our small kitchen with her little sister Lylah. I smile at them as they both smile at me. "Good morning," she says with a smile.

"Good morning," I say with a soft smile. "Have a seat so I can give you breakfast and fix your hair so we're not late."

"Okay," she says as her and Lylah take their seat at the table as I quickly do their hair into pigtails and smile as their perfect curls hang down from the ponytail. "Good morning, Daddy," she says with a smile as her dad comes into the kitchen dressed in his usual black business suit and black shoes looking like your typical New York City business man. He is the vice president of his company which isn't surprising because of his dominant nature and his hard work. His boss loves him. I wish I could say the same but I can't. I hate every day that I have to live with this man but because of our children I will not go anywhere else as if he would let me any way.

"Good morning, Serenity," he says with a soft smile before he kisses the top of her head. "Good morning, Lylah," he says with another soft smile as he kisses the top of her head before he takes a seat at the table. "Where's my breakfast, Teagan?" he scoffs.

"I'm getting it," I say as I walk over to the stove and grab his plate of food. "Good morning."

"Morning," he says as he looks at the food that I lay down in front of him. "What is this?" he asks.

"Eggs, bacon, sausage and toast," I answer.

"It's burnt," he says with agitation. "I can't eat this. Look at this Teagan, do you find this to be acceptable at all."

"I'm sorry," I say as I sit down to eat my own food. "It may have cooked a little longer than I wanted it to. I was trying to get ready for work."

"You don't have to work you know. Your job is to take care of Serenity, Lylah and the house first. I don't know why you need to go out and work at where are you working at again?"

"Reigns Corporation," I say with a soft smile, "it's one of the best corporations in New York. I am incredibly lucky to get a job there."

He puffs out a deep breath and looks at me with his dark brown eyes. "If I had my way you wouldn't be working there at all. I don't know why you want to work anyway. You have two kids that you can spend the day with and a beautiful house. I give you what you want."

"Jay, I know," I say taking a deep breath, "but I get bored staying home all day and with Serenity and Lylah in school now even if it is half day there isn't really anything else for me to do. I want to work. I didn't go to business school for 4 years NOT to work. I don't want my degree to go to waste. You should be really happy for me."

"I'd be happier knowing my wife was at home taking care of what she should be taking care of instead of working at some crap corporation."

"I'm sure you would be," I say under my breath.

"What?" he asked angrily with his dark brown eyes sending daggers through me. "What did you say?"

"Nothing," I say.

"That's what I thought," he said. "I am going to leave because I need to get something to eat on my way to work. I can't eat this crap."

"I'm sorry," I say standing up. "Do you want me to get you anything else or to make you something else?"

"No you've done enough this morning. I'll just stop somewhere to get something to eat," he says as he gets up to throw his food away in the trashcan. He grabs his briefcase, kisses each of the girls before he heads to the door. "I'll be late coming home tonight don't wait up for me," he says. "I love you, Teagan."

"I love you," I say softly as I watch him walk out the door. I breathe a sigh of relief once he's gone before we finish our breakfast before I get the girls ready to go to daycare for their first day before I go to work. I'm really excited to get out of the house and have a life. I don't exactly have one or one that I would like to have. I have no friends so hopefully this job will help me make friends.

After I drop the girls off at daycare I take a taxi to the Reigns Corporation building. I can't control the excitement and the butterflies that are flowing through my stomach right now. I've waited a long time for this and have been ready to have a job since I graduated college. I was waiting till both my girls were old enough before I entered the work field. As I ride in the taxi I check myself out to make sure I look perfect for my first impression. My blonde hair is tied back neatly in a low ponytail, my black business skirt falls to the top of my knee, I look down at my black heels, adjust my white blouse and fix my jacket. I put on a little mascara and eyeliner to bring out my bright blue eyes and put on a little make up to cover up any marks or blemishes on my face. The taxi pulls up in front of the largest building I have ever seen in New York and there are quite a few. I pay the driver his fare before I get out of the cab. I take in the view in front of me. The windows are tinted and the doors are revolving. I watch men and women walk into the building before I do the same. The entrance is just as grand as the outside. The floors are grey marble, there is a reception desk with a blonde woman sitting behind it typing on the computer. I smile as I make my way to the desk. I look at the silver RR label on the wooden wall behind her. The place is prestigious to say the least and it's beautiful perfectly decorated and very welcoming. "How can I help you?" asks the blonde.

"My name is Teagan Richards," I say, "today is my first day."

"All right," she says as she types something into the computer before she gets on the phone. "There is a Teagan Richards here for her first day," she says into the phone. "All right," she says with a small smile before she hands up the phone. "Kim will be down shortly to show you where to go. In the meantime here is your name badge," she says as she hands me my name badge. "You can also use that to enter the building."

"Thank-you," I say with a smile as I put it onto my jacket. I can't believe this is actually happening. I am actually working at Reigns Corporation one of the best in New York. I can't believe I actually have a job that doesn't involve pleasing my husband, taking care of my girls, cooking or cleaning the house. I get to use my brain and have fun while I do it. I love working.

I look at the pictures on the wall of all the celebrities that have come to Reigns Corporation and look at the artwork hanging on the wall. It's so beautiful. "Are you Teagan?" I jump as a brunette stands behind me. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to startle you," she says as I turn around to see her standing there.

"It's okay," I say with a smile. "And yes, I'm Teagan."

"I'm Kim," she says with a welcoming smile. "It's nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too," I say with a smile as I shake her hand.

"I'm just going to show you around."

"Okay," I say with a soft smile as I follow behind her as she shows me the first floor before we go up to the second floor which is where I will be working and she shows me Mr. Reigns' office which is not too far from my desk. I'm not sure how I feel about that. "What's Mr. Reigns like?" I ask as we take the elevator up to the third floor.

"He doesn't really talk to anyone. I know he's strict and he runs a tight ship but he's just not a friendly type of guy. He has no desire to talk to anyone. Of course he says good morning or hello to you if he walks passed you but other than that forget it. The only people that really talk to him and know him are the ones that go to meetings with him or work directly underneath him. I'm not sure why he is like that. He comes in to work before any one gets here and leaves after everyone is gone. He is a workaholic. He has one child that I know of that's about 8 years old that spends a majority of time at home with a nanny."

"Is he married?" I ask but I'm not sure why it matters. It's not my business.

"As far as I know no he's not married and I'm really not sure why because he is a very attractive man not to mention rich. He is in the top 10 richest guys in America and he's not even 30 years old."

"Impressive," I say as we step off the elevator. "So I probably won't see him?"

"Probably not," she says. "I have probably seen him twice in the three years that I've been here. He's very private to say the least and no one dares to bother him."

"Oh," I say as we walk through the third floor that's made up of nothing but meeting rooms. "I take it this is where all the meetings take place?"

"Yes," she says. "And it looks like Mr. Reigns is holding a meeting right now," she says as we walk past one of the meeting rooms. The blinds are open and I try to get a glance of Mr. Reigns but I only see the back of him.

"Is that him?" I ask pointing to the bulky guy in a black suit with black hair slicked back into a ponytail.

"That's Mr. Reigns," she says. "Not your typical business man but obviously he knows how to run a business."

"Yeah," I say as we walk around a little more. "It is a pretty impressive place and to not even be 30 is amazing. He must be really good at what he does."

"He is," she says as the door to the meeting room has been opened and it is now empty as we make our way back to the elevator. "We should probably get you to work," she says. "We'll finish the tour later."

"Okay," I say as we step onto the elevator.

"So do you have any children or are you married?" she asks me.

"I'm married and have two children. What about you?"

"Married but no children. We're working on that though."

"That's cool," I say with a soft smile. "I would like to have at least one more child but my husband doesn't want another. He says two is more than enough. One was more than enough to him they were both surprises."

"Oh," she says. "I'm sure he'll come around."

"I hope," I say as we reach the second floor and I make my way over to my desk where Kim shows me all the work that I need to do. "I think I got it. Where can I get coffee again?" I ask

"Right down the hall," she says with a smile.

"Thank-you," I say as I stand up to go get a cup of coffee.

I approach the coffee pot and stop in my tracks as I see the man standing pouring his own cup of coffee. I recognize the large man, the black hair pulled back in a ponytail and the expensive black business suit he's wearing. I am nervous as Mr. Reigns stands in front of me. I almost want to turn around and go back to my desk but before I get the chance he turns around to face me. "Can't start a Monday off without coffee," he says in a deep voice that I recognize instantly.

My eyes make their way up his body from his feet, to his chest, to his big brown hands holding the coffee and to his face. My bright blue eyes lock with his grey eyes. I almost faint as I see him looking at me. "Joe?" I ask nervously.

"Teagan?" he asks looking me over. He is as hot as I remember him to be but even hotter now as he has a goatee and has grown his hair out. "You work here?" he asks.

"I started today," I say as my legs grow weak beneath me. I am already getting lost in him again like I did so many years ago before. All the memories of him and me come flooding back. I want to scream, I want to cry, I want faint and I want to run away. Who would have ever thought that Joe would become this Mr. Reigns guy and have a multibillion dollar corporation at 25 years old?

"Are you okay?" he asks with a soft smile.

"I'm fine," I say with a soft smile back to him.

He looks behind me and I turn around to see what he's looking at to see that there are a group of other employees gathered around watching us. "Maybe we should go talk in my office," he says in his deep sexy voice making my knees even weaker.
