Rosa DeLuca was ready to venture back into the dating world after taking a six-month hiatus since her breakup with her girlfriend, Gabi. The relationship had ended amicably, but Rosa needed time to heal and rediscover herself before considering new romantic prospects. With some encouragement from friends and a renewed sense of confidence, she decided to give dating apps another try.
She reactivated her profile on a popular dating app, updating her bio to reflect the changes she had gone through during the past months. This time, Rosa was clear about what she was looking for: meaningful connections, shared interests, and someone who appreciated her for who she was.
As Rosa started swiping through profiles, she felt a mixture of excitement and nervousness. The dating landscape had evolved even in the short time she had been away, with new features and trends to navigate. But she was determined to approach this experience with an open mind and heart.
Each conversation was a small step toward rebuilding her confidence in dating. She knew that finding the right person would take time, but Rosa was optimistic. After all, this journey was as much about personal growth and enjoying the process as it was about finding a new partner.
As Rosa DeLuca continued swiping through profiles on the dating app, she suddenly froze. Staring back at her from the screen was a familiar face: someone from work. It was Moira, a colleague she occasionally had training sessions with. They were friendly at the 'office', exchanging pleasantries and small talk during breaks, but Rosa had never considered the possibility of seeing her in a different context.
A mix of curiosity and anxiety bubbled up inside her. Should she swipe right and see if there was a mutual interest, or would that make things awkward at work? On the other hand, if she swiped left, would she miss out on a potentially good connection?
After a moment of contemplation, Rosa decided to swipe right. If they matched, they could address the situation maturely and see where it led. To her surprise, it was an instant match.
A message from Moria popped up almost immediately: "Hey Rosa! Fancy seeing you here. 😄 This could be interesting..."
Rosa chuckled, relieved by her light-hearted approach. "Hey Moira! Small world, right? 😅 Let's see where this goes."
With that, they started chatting, exploring this new dimension of their relationship while keeping things professional and respectful.
After her unexpected match with Moria from work, Rosa felt a surge of courage and curiosity. She had always identified as bisexual but had primarily dated women due to her comfort level and past experiences. However, the positive interaction with Candy made her wonder about exploring the other side of her sexuality. Feeling a mix of excitement and apprehension, Rosa decided it was time to expand her horizons.
Taking a deep breath, she adjusted her settings to include male options. Almost immediately, a new wave of profiles appeared, each representing a different possibility. Rosa felt her nerves kicking in but reminded herself that this was about self-discovery and growth.
As she swiped through the profiles, she found herself drawn to a few men who shared her interests in hiking, movies, religion, cooking, and music. One profile, in particular, caught her eye: a guy named Jeb, who had a warm smile and a bio that mentioned a love for movies, sports, and religion. Taking another deep breath, Rosa swiped right.
To her surprise, it was a match. Jeb sent a friendly message soon after: "Hi Rosa! I see we both love movies. Any favorites?"
Rosa smiled and replied, "Hi Jeb! Yes, I love movies. I think my favorite is likely I Soliti Ignoti (The Usual Suspects) but I’ve watched Princess Bride way more. How about you?"
Their conversation flowed naturally, and Rosa found herself enjoying the new experience. It felt different from her previous interactions on the app, but in a good way. She was learning to embrace her full identity and stepping out of her comfort zone. Before things got too far she did admit the one thing she didn’t have listed on her app, she wanted to keep herself safe after all and only felt comfortable admitting it when things seemed to be maybe going somewhere.
“Oh. Sorry, that doesn’t work for me. Not like phobic or anything Just… no, sorry.”
“No worries. I’m used to it. Good luck out there.”
This decision to explore dating men was a significant step for Rosa. It was about more than just finding a partner; it was about understanding herself better and being open to all the possibilities that life had to offer. Rosa knew she was on the right path toward personal growth and authentic connections.
The scene opens in a dimly lit wrestling gym, the camera focusing on the center ring where Rosa DeLuca stands, radiating confidence and intensity. She wears a leather jacket over her wrestling gear, the words "The Italian Rose" emblazoned on her back. Her hair is pulled back tightly, and she looks into the camera with determination.
“Kasey Vex, you’ve been on a hot streak. You come out swinging. You have your brother do a lot of your talking and you seem to have a pretty intense relationship. I don’t understand a lot of where you came from before coming to IWF but I take people at face value. You are who you decide you are. Right now you see yourself as an unforgettable wrecking machine. Many have fallen before you in the ring. That must make you feel confident. But if you think you can step into the ring with me and walk out unscathed? You have another thing coming.”
She paces the ring, her boots echoing off the mat.
“You come out here with your flashy moves, mysterious crypid energy, and pretty little smiles, but let’s get one thing straight – when that bell rings, it’s not about looking good. It’s about surviving. And survival is what I do best.”
She stops and points directly at the camera.
“You’ve been living in a fantasy, Vex. You think you’re untouchable, that your wins define you. But what happens when you face someone who doesn’t just want to win, but needs to win?”
Rosa's eyes blaze with intensity as she continues.
“I’m not a legend. But I’ve fought in back alleys, I’ve bled on these mats, and I’ve never backed down from a challenge. You’re stepping into my world now. A world where pain is just another obstacle, and giving up is not an option. Kasey, you’re talented. But talent only gets you so far. Heart, grit, and a willingness to push beyond your limits – that’s what makes a true champion. And we all want to be champions someday, don’t we? And I’ve got those in spades."
Rosa leans on the ropes, her face inches from the camera.
“So bring your best, Vex. Bring everything you’ve got. Because when you step into the ring with me, you’re not just fighting for a win. You’re fighting to survive. We both are newer to this company and both of us are on a winning streak. Keeping the streak going is what we both need. And I think I want it more than you do.”
She straightens up, the smile returning to her face.
“I’ll see you in the ring, Kasey. And when it’s all said and done, I hope we both can have a good match. I’m going to be throwing my all into this. I hope you are too.”
The camera zooms in on her face, capturing the fierce determination in her eyes before fading to black.
