Chapter 4: Before your Eyes

Punk waited in anticipation for his music to hit…he was ready; this match was going to be amazing. Finally his music hit and his body rushed from adrenaline…Punk was just about to rush out there till her felt a pair of arms wrap around his waist.

"Good luck champ" AJ said with a gently squeeze

"Luck is for losers…remember" Punk replied placing a kiss atop of AJ's head.

"I love you" AJ whispered blowing a kiss to Punk.

"Ditto babe" Punk replied rushing out to the top ramp of the arena making one hell of an entrance.

Punk's body was racked with pain obviously he wasn't the only one stepping up his game tonight…Punk tried his best to not let the pain in his legs and arms show but he felt the burning of every muscle is his body.

Bryan was just about to hit Punk with the yes lock till it was counted by Punk with a kick to the side of his head. Bryan fell down to the mat like a tree that was just cut down…now was he chance he needed to pull something out to end this.

Punk used everything he had left and lifted Daniel Bryan up…this was over for Bryan whether he liked it or not. Punk hit Bryan with the GTS and leaped on his for the pin…1,2,3, finally it was over…Punk lifted his arms up in victory. Suddenly AJ's music hit…out popped AJ who skipped down the ramp she couldn't help herself she had to celebrate with Punk over his win.

"I told you to stay backstage" Punk whispered in AJ's ear as she wrapped her arms around him.

"I wanted to celebrate with you" AJ replied softly with a smile as she continued to hug Punk.

Suddenly the celebration was cut short…Punk could feel the pain rush back all over again it ran down his spine. Bryan had a steel chair in hand as he continued to strike Punk again until the champ fell to his knees.

AJ watched in horror as Bryan continued his vicious assault on Punk's tired body…she felt helpless even if she wanted to help what could she do she was pregnant. Punk saw the look in AJ's eyes and gave her a look as if to say don't you dare do anything. AJ couldn't just let this continue she ran up to Bryan and latched on his back trying to fight him off.

Punk felt his emotions rise…he couldn't let anything happen to AJ or his child, why couldn't she of just stayed backstage. Punk rushed to pull AJ off of Daniel he felt like he needed a crowbar to do it though she was really latched on.

AJ would not let go for fear that something would happen to Punk once she did…she could feel Bryan trying his best to pull her off. Suddenly it happened something that Punk never wanted to happen…Bryan finally got AJ off but when he did he tripped over his footing. Bryan with chair still clutched in hand fell but he fell atop of AJ with the chair slamming between them.

Punk felt like the air was knocked out of him…he didn't even care for Bryan who was out cold. Punk rushed and pushed Bryan off of her. AJ's chest was heaving up and down quickly…Punk was frozen he didn't know what to do. Quickly Punk grabbed a mic and begged for EMT's to come to the ring and help her.

"Somebody…please anybody come help please" Punk was desperate and almost on the verge of tears.

Backstage everyone watched in horror as the scene was unfolding…their hearts sank for Punk who looked like he was so frail and helpless trying to get help for his pregnant fiancé. Finally EMT's arrived for AJ…Punk stayed in the ring and cradled AJ is his lap whispering in her ear it was all going to be okay.

"Punk" AJ voice choked out.

"No baby it's okay I'm here okay" Punk replied holding AJ close.

"It hurts" AJ moaned out as she lifted her hand to her stomach.

Suddenly Punk noticed something that made him feel like his life was going to end just right there…when the EMT's lifted AJ on to the gurney there was a small blood stain in the spot where AJ was lying.

"Oh my God" Punk whispered to himself as he looked on in shock as EMT's wheeled AJ to the back.

"Please be okay…please" Punk whispered holding AJ's hand as the ambulance rushed to the nearest hospital.
