John Cena was dating Shawn Hickenbottom's(Michaels') oldest daughter. They had broken up. She was now getting married to Chris Irvine(Jericho). What are John's thoughts? Goes along with Toby Keith's song 'She Never Cried in Front of Me'.
Told in John's POV:
My ex, Maria Lynn Hickenbottom, was marrying Chris Irvine(Jericho). I was at the wedding, much to my sadness. I saw her father Shawn watching her with obvious pride and love in his eyes. When the new couple arrived at the reception, I noticed a tear rolling down her face. I was killed inside by it. I realized that it was my fault that she was. During our relationship, I treated her horribly. We argued constantly. Irvine always comforted her. After he left the business, it was Benoit. And the Hardys. One day, she ended it.
Flashback: Third person: Maria was sitting backstage at Wrestlemania 23. She and John had just gotten into another arguement. She was joined in catering by Chris Benoit. "Okay Ria?"
She looked up with tears in her eyes and shook her head no.
Chris sighed and hugged her. "Ria, dump him if he makes you this unhappy."
She sighed and replied, "It's a thought."
She waited backstage for John to come backstage from his match.
John came backstage and saw her waiting. "I don't want to fight anymore Maria."
"I know John. And I just came to tell you that it's over. I'm done."
"You sure?"
"John, we argue too much. I love you, but I can't do this anymore."
She kissed his cheek and started to leave.
"Maria..."
"John. It's for the best."
He nodded and she left him.
Present time:
She said that it was for the best. I stupidly agreed.
A little less than 2 years later, she married my co-worker, Chris. I should've known that she would move on. That she would get over me. At the reception, I finally realized what a stupid mistake I made. I realized that I missed her, but there was nothing I could do about it. I hope that she's happy. She deserves it.
