Hook x Reader: Exploring the Intense Chemistry in AEW Storylines

It was a quiet evening, the kind where the air felt thick with anticipation. I had been watching AEW for weeks now, fascinated by the wrestlers, their moves, and their stories. But tonight, tonight was different. Tonight, I had a feeling something was about to change. And it wasn’t just the matches I was waiting for. No, it was him—Hook.

Hook. The name alone sent a shiver down my spine. There was something about the way he moved in the ring—so precise, so powerful. He wasn’t like the others. The way his muscles flexed as he delivered each move, the intensity in his eyes when he locked in that submission. It was all mesmerizing. But what really caught my attention was how he seemed to see me. Like I was the only one in the crowd. A small smile, a flicker of acknowledgment, and my heart would skip a beat.

Tonight, as the show was winding down, I found myself making my way backstage, hoping for a moment alone with him. I had to tell him something—something that had been gnawing at me ever since I laid eyes on him. The atmosphere in the locker room was buzzing with energy. Wrestlers chatting, stretching, and getting ready for their next moves. But I wasn’t here for anyone else. Just him.

I knocked lightly on the door of his dressing room. My breath caught in my throat as the door creaked open. And there he was. Hook. Standing tall, his eyes scanning me, a smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. I wasn’t sure what to say at first. Words seemed so small compared to the way my heart was racing.

“What’s up?” he asked, his voice low and steady. It sent a warmth through me that I wasn’t ready for. I just stood there for a moment, unsure of how to begin. But then, I knew. I had to take a chance. I stepped forward, meeting his gaze head-on.

“I just… I wanted to say I think you’re amazing,” I stammered. “I’ve been watching you for a while now, and I don’t know, something about the way you fight—it’s like you’re different. You don’t just wrestle, you own it.” My words felt rushed, but the look on his face softened. He seemed to appreciate the honesty in my voice.

He didn’t say anything for a moment, just continued to stare at me, as if studying my every word. Then, finally, he nodded. “Thanks. Means a lot.” He stepped closer, and I could feel the heat of his body. My heart beat faster as he leaned in just enough to make my pulse race.

“You’re not like the others,” I added, my voice barely above a whisper. “You don’t just wrestle for the crowd—you do it for yourself. And that’s something special.” Hook’s eyes flickered, and for the first time, I saw a hint of vulnerability in his gaze. It wasn’t much, but it was enough. It was enough to make me believe he wasn’t just the quiet, intense wrestler he appeared to be in the ring. There was more to him, something deeper, something real.

He tilted his head slightly, his lips curling into that infamous smirk. “You think so?” he asked, his voice teasing but with a depth to it that caught me off guard. I nodded, feeling a warmth spread through me. This wasn’t just about wrestling anymore. This was about something more personal, something more intimate.

We stood there for a few more moments, the silence between us comfortable. It wasn’t awkward. It wasn’t rushed. It was like the world had slowed down just for the two of us. I could tell there was an unspoken understanding between us now. Maybe we were both thinking the same thing. Maybe this was just the beginning of something new. I didn’t know where it would go, or if it would even go anywhere at all, but in that moment, with him standing so close, I didn’t care.

After a beat, Hook turned and headed back towards the ring, his muscles rippling as he moved with purpose. “I’ll see you later,” he said over his shoulder, his voice as calm and collected as ever. But there was a spark in his eyes. Something that told me this wasn’t the last time we’d meet like this.

And I couldn’t wait for the next time.
