A/N: I own nothing besides my OC's Please R&R
"What's taking you so damn long? It's almost time to go!" A harsh man's voice boomed from the bottom of the stairs. The sound of his voice sent fear throughout my body. I kept my call though, knowing getting upset wouldn't do any good.
"We've got over an hour before we need to leave." I called back.
"Damn it Maxi! Will you move your ass?"
Ignoring him I went back to what I was doing. Which is getting dressed. Tonight Steve and I are going to a Raw Super Show! Edge was supposed to be there tonight, which had me very excited.
I decided on my favorite jeans and an Edge t-shirt. I was just finishing my makeup when the bedroom door flew open, banging against the wall. I jumped at the noise but quickly regained my cool.
"Let's go!" Steve barked and grabbed my wrist forcing me to my feet.
"Ok! I'll just get my shoes, purse and cell phone."
"You didn't even have that stuff ready!" Steve's hand reached out so fast I didn't have time to blink before his hand stung my cheek. Tears threatened to spill, but I held back.
"Be in the car in 5 minutes or I'm leaving without you. And next time be ready when I say."I nodded with my head bent as he walked away showing no remorse for his abuse.
Quickly I grabbed the things I needed and was at the car in record time. Steve meant it when he said 5 minutes, the last time I'd made him wait I'd ended up with a broken wrist and a fat lip.
"Very good." Steve praised when I hopped in his SUV. His hand extended across the seat to stroke my flat stomach. "And how's baby?" He asked sickly sweet.
"Good!" I answered half heartedly forcing a smile. I had just found out I was pregnant last week. Only 9 weeks along now. I was hopping the pregnancy would at the very least put an end to his abuse, but so far it didn't look like it was happening.
"You know Maxine, you start behaving and not trying to irritate me things would be a lot better."
"I don't try to irritate you," I protested.
"Come on Maxi, there's no reason you couldn't of been ready when I said."
"I didn't do it on purpose."
"Your gonna have to shape up when the baby's born."
*After Raw*
The show was great and I gotten to see just about every wrestler I'd wanted to. Our seats were fairly decent, floor level only a couple rows back. Steve was happy as long as he had a steady supply of beers.
"I'm just gonna go to the merchandise stand and I'll be right out."
"5 minutes, Maxi." Steve warned tapping his watch. That was impossible, the line was easily 5 people or more long. But I didn't bother saying that, he wouldn't care.
Luckily the lines moved fast and it was my turn in 10 minutes. I ended up buying 3 shirts for myself and one for Steve hopping it would grant me a reprieve for being late.
I needed to pee badly, I was already running over 15 minutes late so I didn't think a bathroom break would make a difference. I did my business and hurried out to the parking lot. Somehow Steve had managed to get permission to park in the back where he claimed all the wrestlers and employees normally parked. Getting there took another 5 minutes in its self.
The parking lot had only a few cars left besides our own and it was eerily quiet for Chicago. Looking around for Steve I noticed a door that I hadn't before, marked employees only.
As if on cue the door opened and a tall blonde haired man stepped out. I nearly fainted on the spot. It was Edge.
"Hey! What are you doing back here? No fans are supposed to park here." He cried noticing me. Timidly I crossed over to him. My heart was beating wildly. I licked my lips and willed my voice to work.
"I'm sorry, my fiancée said he had a pass to park here."
"I don't care, but I don't want you guys to get in trouble with security or something." Edge said and grinned at me.
"I don't suppose I could get a picture and autograph." I said hopefully.
"Sure, what do you want signed?"
Grinning widely I handed him the Edge shirt I'd just bought. Then we took a picture, his arm snaked around me and I was in heaven. Having the sexiest wrestler in the WWE so close to me. I snapped the picture and his arm dropped away.
"Thanks so much Edge!"
"Maxine! Who the fuck are you talking to?" Steve bellowed appearing from the darkness.
"Its Edge, don't you recognize him?" I said surprised he even asked.
"I don't give a fuck who he is! Just cause he's a wrestler doesn't mean he can hit on my girl."
"I just took a picture with her and gave her my autograph." Edge interrupted, trying to calm him.
"Yeah, right. I know your type. Thinking you can have any girl you want just cause your famous!"
"Steve, you had to many beers. Lets go, I'll drive." I pleaded reaching for the keys dangling in his hand.
The cold hard ground met me before I knew what happened. Immediately I felt a sharp pain in my stomach, which is where I landed.
Groaning I started to push myself up but was over come by a wave of dizziness and stayed down. I heard Edge and Steve exchanging harsh words.
"Hey! That's not how you treat women. Especially your fiancé." Edge growled angrily.
"Don't you tell me what to do. You beat people for a living!"
"Yeah other men, that are trained. I don't go beating on girls cause they asked for an autograph and kept their man waiting!"
"That's it! I'm leaving. Find your own way home Maxine, maybe then you'll learn something." Steve growled and then kicked me in my stomach.
I stayed laying until I heard the SUV roar to life and the tires squeal as he sped away.
Edge crouched down next to the girl, debating for only a second on what to do. He couldn't ignore the guilt nagging at him, but did the only thing he could.
