Maria Cena sat on the floor in the bathroom of her house that she shared with her husband of 1 year, John Cena.
She stared at the object in her hands. "Oh my gosh." She whispered. Maria got up off the floor and walked down the hall to her and John's room. She sat down on the bed and picked up the phone.
"Hey girl! What's up?" Torrie answered the phone.
"How did you know it was me?" Maria asked in a ditzy tone.
"Caller-ID. So what's on your mind?"
"I need your help with something. And it had to be done within the next 3 hours."
Torrie listened very closely to what Maria had to tell her. She couldn't help but smile and be excited for her friend, after all this was a really big deal. The tow hung up the phone and Torrie made her way to Maria's house.
Hour and a half later...
"There! All finished!" Maria said as she put the finishing touches on her surprise for John.
Torrie joined Maria in the doorway to the living room and took a look at the room. "It looks great! What time does he get home?"
Maria looked up at the clock above the fireplace, "Ummm, about and hour and a half."
"Well I'm gonna take off," Torrie picked up her purse, "are you sure you're gonna be okay?" Torrie eyed Maria.
Maria rolled her eyed at the protectiveness of her friend, "yes. I may play a ditz on TV but I think I can manage and hour and a half."
"Sorry this is just really big!" They both giggled, then Maria's face turned serious.
"Do you think he'll be happy with all of this?"
"Oh sweetie, of course he will. You've been married for a year. It's about time!" Torrie hugged her as to reassure her that everything would be okay. "Call me! I want details!"
Maria took a deep breath and turned back to the living room and scanned the room over, "Everything will be okay."
She sat down on the couch and pulled out a scrapbook that she and John put together. She looked at a picture of them having their first kiss on RAW. She had been so nervous for that match and in a last effort to calm her, he gave her the most passionate kiss she had ever experienced.
She turned the page to a picture of their wedding day. It was outside on the beach. She wore a simple, strapless, white gown. Her hair blew in the wind as the sun beat down on her face. John, of course was in a black tux. A tear fell from her eye as she remembered their vows to each other.
----Flashback----
"Maria, baby, you are my entire world. Since the day you walked in the RAW arena I knew the you were the one that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. I want to wake up to your beautiful face every morning."
He noticed a tear escape from her eye and quickly reached up to wipe it away with his thumb. She smiled and leaned into the touch of his hand. John smiled and went on with his vows.
"You support me in everything I do and you love me unconditionally. I love you with all my heart and soul."
His voice cracked and it was her turn to wipe away a tear from his face. He too leaned into her hand. Maria took a deep breath as she realized that it was her turn to tell John what he meant to her.
"John, you have done nothing but be there for me. When I was in the worst possible state, you were there. You stayed by my side through everything that life has thrown at us. And we survived! I love you so much. You are my life, my rock, and my other half. I don't know what my life would be like without you in it. I love you John."
Maria was crying freely now. He held her face in his hands and smiled at her.
----End Flashback----
Maria was snapped out of her day dream by the sound of someone coming through the front door.
"Here we go." She took a deep breath and stood up. Then she heard him call out.
"Baby..."
