WRITER'S NOTE: THERE WILL BE SOME TERMS USED DURING THIS AND FUTURE RPS THAT USE INSENSITIVE WORDS. THEY ARE NOT A REFLECTION OF THE AUTHOR’S FEELINGS BUT USED TO DESCRIBE WHAT AARON WENT THROUGH IN SCHOOL. THESE STORIES BUILD TO WHO ERIN IS TODAY. IF ANYONE TAKES OFFENSE, IT”S NOT INTENTIONAL ON THE WRITER’S PART.
TWELVE YEARS AGO
The weekend following the big game, Aaron had bared his soul to his best friend and the rest of the weekend went off without any issues. However, Monday morning rolled around as Aaron arrived in school, there was definitely something odd in the air. Friends who he had always been friendly with suddenly turned away as he walked by and tried to say hello.
His path seemed to clear as he walked towards his locker and retrieved his books for first period. He turned and walked into the classroom and the conversations that were taking place suddenly ceased as all eyes turned to him. He paused, looking around, wondering what the fuck was going on as he slowly made his way to his seat.
There was a cough. Not a real cough, but one of those fake coughs where you try and sneak a word in there. The word hit Aaron’s ears and he turned towards the cougher. It was another of the football players and Aaron gave him a quizzical look, but the player quickly turned away and then another cough from a different part of the room. This time the word being said was very clear.
“Fag.”
It was definitely all of the football players and Aaron started to stand up, when the teacher walked into the room and the coughing ceased. He took his seat as the class started with no further incident. When the bell rang, the class exited and as Aaron slipped into the hallway, he saw Jerry and started to walk over towards him then Jerry made eye contact, he turned and went the other way. Aaron started to chase him down when the warning bell rang and he mutters a curse under his breath and hurried back to get his things out of his locker. When he walked up to it he stopped and shook his head as someone had written with permanent marker on his locker the word, “HOMO”.
“What the fuck is going on?” he asks himself as he just opens his locker and swaps books, slamming the locker shut and heading to his next class.
Up until lunch time it was more of the same. Avoidance. Weird looks. Not so subtle innuendos. As he gets his meal and walks over to the jock table, everyone looks up at him. He takes a seat and begins to eat and suddenly everyone stands up and walks away, taking their trays to another table.
As Aaron stands up, he spots Jerry who just got his food. He starts towards Aaron’s table and then stops. He turns and sees the jocks have moved and he pivots and joins them at their table and it’s at that moment that Aaron realizes what is going on.
Despite the fact that Aaron specifically told Jerry he wasn't gay, Jerry decided to spread some shit around school about him.“You son of a bitch!” he yells as he rushes over and tackles Jerry, taking him down and begins to pummel him. “I trusted you, you piece of shit!” he says. Jerry is yelling, “Get this fag off of me!” Suddenly, the other football players have grabbed his arms and are holding him as Jerry gets to his feet and wipes some blood from his lip. “Shouldn’t have done that, you freaking queer,” as he drives a fist directly into Aaron’s stomach, driving the wind out of him.
Just then some teachers show up and of course, the team points the blame to Aaron who is taken to the principal’s office and subsequently suspended for three days for fighting. On the drive home, his parents are trying to figure out what’s going on, but Aaron remains silent.
Three days later, he returns to school -- still being shunned by the jocks. The coach has taken him off the team for getting suspended and for fighting which seemed very convenient. At lunch, he gets his food and out of instinct turns towards the jock table but then realizes he is no longer part of that crowd. He turns and surveys the cafeteria and spots and empty table and walks over and sits and begins to eat quietly to himself.
He’s not really paying attention when suddenly a voice asks, “Can we sit here?”
He looks up and he sees a few of the kids he’s not familiar with. He glances around and then nods. As they sit, they start to introduce themselves. “I’m Erica. This is Jason. This is Phil.” Aaron swallows the food in his mouth, “Aaron. Hey.”
The rest of the meal is consumed in relative silence, but each day the same group would eat together, and eventually more would join until one day Aaron realized that this group had come to accept him, despite the rumors about him.
They didn't even ask about them. Just accepted him.
EPISODE 20 Erin had just finished her shower following her match with Leah and was getting dressed. The monitor was on in the locker room, showing the live feed of the show when she witnessed Cain’s destruction of Emily Falls. She felt badly, Emily had heart. She was here for every show. She got in that ring and did her best. She always seemed to get beat.
Erin pulled out her compac and was touching up her make up and she heard the bell ring. She winced at the replay and just shook her head. “Poor kid,” she said softly to herself as she applied the touch up. She didn’t pay the commercial break all that much attention but when the feed came back on, Emily was still in the ring.
Erin was only half listening to the words, but when the final words were spoken she stopped everything she was doing and just stared at the monitor before finally uttering, “Oh, shit.”
ON CAMERA “Emily Falls, you’ve had a rough go of it, haven’t you?”
“I’ve been where you’ve been. Pretending to be something you’re not until suddenly you can’t do it anymore and everything just explodes. Well, now that everything has exploded, what are you going to do with it? What are you going to do about it?”
“When I got fed up of pretending, I went out and became the real me. I turned that corner and I’ve never been more content with my life. I get to live my dream every day as a pro wrestler and can be myself in the process. So, you have to ask yourself, who are you?”
“You and I are going to meet in the ring on Episode 21. I want you to bring me the real Emily Falls - or Emily Mack or whatever it is you want to call yourself. I want you to bring the real you and take me to my limit. Not only do I want you to show me, but I want you to show the world what you’re made of.”
“And when it’s all said and done, win, lose or draw. I will shake your hand. And if you ever need a tag partner or an ally, you have one in me. Heaven knows, you almost need allies around this place. Perhaps after the match, you and I can go out and grab a bite and have a nice long chat. I’d like that. But, bring me your best at 21 because I cannot promise you anything less. I look forward to meeting you in the ring.”

Emily Falls’ New House
Emily Falls is in the kitchen, popping popcorn, her back facing the camera. The lights inside are bright, but the open windows reveal that the night is dark.
Emily shakes her head. Then she faces the camera, and you can see her red, tired eyes. She rubs them and yawns.
“Ah, I’m sooo tired! Why won’t I just go to bed?” she says.
There is no furniture in the house. Only the kitchen counters, cabinets, fridge, stove, and a broken TV lying on the floor.
Emily shakes her head at the TV. “James needs to hire some men to put that TV on that wall! That has to be the seventh one we bought!”
Emily yawns. She turns off the stove, and heads across the room to her bedroom, bringing the popcorn with her.

Emily Falls’ New House
Emily is sitting on her new green leather couch, her head buried in a book. After a few minutes, she closes the red, title less book and stretches. She smiles when she sees the cameraman.
“Hey, Eric!” she laughs. “I’m glad you came back! Bob was a horrible cameraman!” She laughs.
Erick flips the camera over to reveal his chubby face, with a thick gob of brown hair on top. He smiles and waves. Then he shows Emily again. She’s laughing.
She finally catches her breath. She has a colorful dress and orange sandals.
“Ariana sure was surprised about....well......Robert Mack being my.....dad.”
Emily bites her lip, uncomfortable.
“Erin Blue was surprised! I have questions to guys: Why did it have to be a secret? Was he ashamed of his own daughter?” Emily shakes her head.
“Why don’t I talk about Erin Blue? My best opponent so far....or, probably the only best opponent. My eyes popped out of my head when I heard her call me ‘poor kid’. I can’t believe my opponent would compliment me!” She smiles.
“I highly respect you, Erin, but I need to win this match. I have lost every single match since Mile High re-opened. I need this win. And I’m gonna take it.”
Emily looks at the ceiling, a smile of triumph on her face.
James walks in. “Can we go to Sonic now?”
