Cora sat backstage in the cafeteria next to Paige as she waited their backstage segment with Stephanie McMahon and a couple of the other divas. She smiled as she looked down at her phone.
"What's the smile for sunshine?" Paige asked as Cora put her phone down.
"Just finished finalizing Seth and I's date tonight." Cora smiled brightly, excited about her dinner with Seth.
"What are you love birds doing?" Paige asked as she took a bite of her strawberry.
"We're going to dinner after the show at this really romantic Italian place. Nikki said she and John go all the time, they're even staying open after hours for us." Cora replied.
"Look at you, all fancy and such" Paige smiled.
"I know I cannot wait. Seth and I haven't gone to dinner in awhile," Cora, said as she pushed her hair behind her ears.
"Look out here comes the beast." Paige whispered to Cora as Brock Lesner entered the cafeteria with Paul Hayman in toll.

Brock smirked as she saw the petite figure of Cora sitting with Paige. He could see the fear on her face as Paul and him walked closer to the two divas.
"Coralline, is it?" Paul asked, a smirk on his face.
"Its Cora," she replied, "Can I help you two with something?".
"Actually you can. Tell your little weasel of a boyfriend that Suplex City is waiting on him" the former MMA fighter said as he rested his hands on the table. He leaned over so his face was directly infront of Cora, "tell him that sweetheart". Brock pulled back licking his lips. He loved seeing the look of terror on her face. He winked at her as he stalked off with Paul.

"That was weird, I didn't think you where involved in-ring with Seth" Paige said she watched Brock walk off.
"I'm not." Cora mumbled as she let out a deep breath. She looked over her shoulder at Paige who shrugged.
"We should probably go to the locker room for the segment" Paige commented standing up. Cora just nodded her head and followed the raven head diva to the divas locker room.

After the Diva's segment, Cora went on the search for Seth to tell him about Brock and for him to wrap his arms around her. Although Brock didn't physically threaten her, she still felt like she was in harms way. She kept her arms cross against her body as she walked down the hallway. "Dean, have you seen Seth?" She asked as Dean Ambrose passed her.
"I just saw him heading towards the entrance" the fellow Ohioian replied. The ginger diva mentally cursed herself. "Oh, Okay. Thanks Dean" she sighed.
"No problem sugar. Every thing okay?" he asked noticing her sigh.
"Yeah, just wanted to talk to him. If you see him tell him I'm waiting for him in his locker room" she replied forcing a small smile on her face.
"You got it Coco" He smiled and kissed her cheek before going back to go where ever he was going. Cora looked up and down the hallway before heading to Seth's locker room to wait out his match.

After waiting for what felt like hours but in reality was thirty minutes, the heavy weight champion finally walked through the door. Cora smiled and greeted her man with a smile. The smile quickly faded as she noticed he wasn't alone. J&J Security was right behind him. "Hey" she said quietly as she sat back down on the chair.
"Cora hey!" Jamie Noble smiled big at the Diva. Joey just nodded in her direction.
"Cora, can you get a ride back with one of the divas?" He asked as he got ready to hit the showers. Cora gave him a surprise look. Thanks for the greeting she thought to herself. "Why?".

"Seth, Joey, and me are going out to celebrate his win tonight". Jaime excitedly said as he slapped Seth on the back. Seth smiled at Jamie before looking at Cora.
"That's okay right? I mean we have nothing going on tonight" Seth said as he undid his tape on his wrist. Cora felt her heart shatter at his words. Hurt that he forgot about their date they'd planned over a week ago. "Sure." She bit her tongue as she slung her bag over her shoulder. She could feel the anger bubbling inside. The need to tell Seth about Brock long gone from her mind as she tried to keep herself from getting too upset. "You're the best" Seth smiled kissing her cheek. "I'll see you at the hotel". Cora faintly nodded her head as she faked a smile and walked out of the locker room. Her fingers lingered on the door as she pushed back the tears. She took a deep breath and let go of the door. She forced a smile on her face as she walked away, determined not to let Seth ruin her night.
