Chapter 2
Falling without knowing To decide Stephanie's fate Vince and Triple H would have a match at the next pay per view. If Triple H won he would get a title shot and if Vince won Triple H would divorce Stephanie so he could have his daughter back. Because of the reaction from the fans the creative team decided to have Stephanie back stab her father and help Triple H win his match. After that happened everything went crazy from that point on. The fans ate it up and all the major stock holders were happy.Even though things seemed to be going so well some behind the scenes people were unhappy.
"Damn that Paul!" Paul Heyman said to his friend Rob Van Dam. "He is such a kiss a! Look at how he is flirting with the bosses daughter!" He frowned as he pointed at Paul and Steph who were having another non-work related conversation. It was obvious to everyone that they liked each other but the only people who didn't seem to notice was Paul and Stephanie. They didn't even realize it but everyone else started spreading nasty rumors about how Paul wanted to get Steph in bed so he could have a piece of the company.
"I couldn't agree more dude" Rob said sighing. "It's obvious why talented superstars like myself get shot down because of a kissers like Paul." They all whined and complained behind Steph and Paul's backs and for a long time they didn't even know why people had been giving them dirty looks when they would wave and smile at them in the halls.
Finally one night before Raw Vince had Stephanie called to his office. "Listen Stephanie I understand that you like him but you can't do this." Vince said hoping he wouldn't have to hurt his daughter.
"What are you talking about dad?" Steph said looking at him in a very confused way.
"You mean you don't know?" Vince asked shocked and confused.
"Know what?" Steph asked even more confused. "Dad? Are you alright?" Stephanie said becoming a little concerned about her fathers sanity.
"Yeah I'm fine Steph.." Vince said in a relieved way. "Have fun out there tonight!" He said changing the subject.
"I will!" She said giving her dad a hug and then leaving his office. She couldn't help but wonder what was going on but she had other things to concentrate on. She also knew if she talked to Paul for awhile she would probably forget the whole thing. He always seemed to make her feel better.
"Have you noticed everyone is in a bad mood lately?" Paul said when he saw Stephanie. It seemed like she was the only person who would smile when they saw him.
"Yeah I know what you mean. Everyone is acting really weird." Steph said walking beside Paul. "Especially my dad. He started asking me really weird questions."
"What kind of questions?" Paul asked.
"He thought I liked someone. I'm thinking I don't.." Stephanie's face got bright red and it finally hit her. "What's wrong?" Paul asked taking her hands to make sure she was alright. "I have to go!" Stephanie exclaimed she pulled her hands away and tried to find somewhere to be alone so she could think about her very scary situation. Paul stood alone after she ran off thinking to himself. He had never wanted to chase after someone so bad in his life. It made his chest hurt to think that Stephanie might be somewhere crying.
"Oh my god!" He said out loud to himself. It had finally hit him as well. It felt like a bullet in his chest. He couldn't believe he had feelings for Stephanie and had never even realized it.
