Disclaimer: I still don't own anything...but The Rock is back sooo I can wait to take over ;)

A last minute storyline change had Wade pissed off. There wasn't supposed to be a match tonight, just a confrontation to show that The Corre was better then Nexus ever would be and all that good stuff but now thanks to the Anonymous GM, Wade was being forced to wrestle a one on one match against CM Punk. Worst part was the fact that his boys were banned from ringside but Punk's weren't.

"It'll be okay Wade, you're gonna win no worries." Justin tried to reassure him.

"I don't want to be in the same arena as that waste of skin, let alone in the ring with him." Wade said between clenched teeth.

"We all know this, especially after what happened earlier but-"

"Don't bother Heath, it's not going to make him feel better." Ezekiel stated calmly.

Heath shrugged, not sure what to do.

Wade sighed. " I'm sorry guys I really don't want to do this."

Justin's eyes widened as he realized something. "Uhm has anyone thought about Nikki's reaction to all this?"

Wade closed his eyes and exhaled slowly. "Tomight keeps getting better and better doesn't it?"

A knock on the door told them that Wade had to be at the Gorilla position in five and he pushed himself off the bench.

"You'll be fine man. As soon as the match is over we'll be there to make sure that they don't start any shit."

Wade managed a grim smile. "Thanks Zeke. I'll see you all later."

He stalked off towards the Gorilla and everybody cleared a path for him.

He was to go out first and he was trying his hardest not to attack anyone before getting in the ring.

He came out onto the ramp to cheers. It was still weird to hear it but he was slowly getting used to it.

He sneered at the crowd as per usual and waited for his opponent.

The match started off with Wade in control but once he was thrown out of the ring, all bets were off. Harris, Otunga, Ryan, and McGillicutty all took turns beating him before shoving him back in the ring. Punk kept the ref distracted the while time.

Punk then slammed Wade face first into the ring post and covered Wade for the three count.

As soon as the bell had been rung, The Corre appeared and began to attack Nexus.

At this point, Wade rolled out of the ring and headed backstage before anybody seemingly noticed. He felt the telltale crack when his face hit the ring post and knew instantly that his nose was broken.

It honestly wasn't a huge deal seeing as he'd lost count of the number of times this had happened to him, but the fact that he'd been screwed over pissed him off.

He went straight to the trainers office, trying to keep from leaving a blood trail behind him.

"Hey I need a favor." Wade said as he entered the room.

The trainer, Joe, looked up and saw the blood, shaking his head. "Again?"

"Not my fault. People tend to think it's amusing I guess. Ya mind fixing it for me?" Wade sat down on the chair.

"Looks to me like you're pretty beat up man. You got worked over." Joe sighed.

"Thanks for reminding me." Wade scowled at the other man.

"I just call it like I see it man."

It took about 20 minutes to get Wade's nose set and the cut on his arm stitched.

"I don't wanna see you back in here for awhile Wade." Joe said seriously.

"Talk to Phillip about that. Thanks Joe, I appreciate it." Wade got up and left the room before Joe could say anything else.

When Nikki got back to the hotel, she wet straight to Wade and Justin's room.

She raised her hand to knock when the door opened and Justin appeared in the doorway.

"Oh hey Nix. Wade's in there. I'm heading out." Justin smiled at her before heading down the hall.

Nikki sighed, knowing that Wade was going to be upset but she had to make sure he was okay.

She found him sitting up against the headboard of his bed, scowl in place, staring at the TV.

"Babe?" she said tentatively.

Wade grunted in response but didn't acknowledge her further.

"Mind if I come sit with you?"

"Not at all." Wade replied, scooting over to give her room.

Nikki gently sat down on the bed, and turned Wade to face her.

She could barely contain the gasp that threaten to leave her lips. Along with the cut and bruise, there were dark circles under both eyes, his face was slightly swollen and the bruises continued down Wade's torso.

"Oh Wade what did they do?"

"Cheat. None of this was scripted at all. If I get my hands on him I'm going to kill him." Wade said, his tone menacing.

Nikki leaned forward and kissed Wade gently. His tension seemed to melt away and he soon relaxed entirely.

When Nikki pulled back, Wade pulled her close to him and allowed her to put her head on his chest.

"Thanks for coming to check on me."

"I had to check on you. I wasn't allowed to watch your match and by the time I found out what happened you weren't at the arena anymore and I was worried sick." Nikki admitted.

Wade frowned. "Why weren't you allowed to watch?"

"I was tied up with Mikey and Alex and it just didn't happen. I guess able would have been the better word to use." Nikki explained.

Wade nodded. "I'm actually glad you didn't watch it love. It was pretty brutal."

"So Phil broke your nose...how many times is this?" Nikki asked.

"I honestly don't know anymore. It's really not that bad."

Nikki shook her head. "Only you."

"What?" Wade laughed. "When you've had your nose broken so many times it's really nothing."

They pair sat in comfortable silence for awhile before Wade yawned.

"You've got to be tired, I'll leave you alone so you can get some sleep." Nikki offered.

Wade's arms tightened around her. "I don't want you to go love."

"You need sleep Wade, you won't sleep if I'm here."

"I swear I will, please don't leave. I really don't want you to go." Wade begged.

"If only people could see you like this, they'd have no choice but to love you." Nikki teased.

Wade glared at her playfully before admitting; "I can't help it love, you're my weakness."

Nikki smiled and kissed Wade. "Alright I'll stay but you have to let me go get my stuff so we don't have another issue like this morning. And you promise me you'll sleep tonight. You need it."

Wade held up a hand. "Promise."

"Alright I'll be back soon then." Nikki got up and walked towards the door. "Be good while I'm gone."

"No promises." Wade smirked.

"Ass. I'll be back." Nikki shook her head and shut the door behind her.

As Nikki walked down the hall, she wanted to scream and punch something. Instead she simply went back to her room and got her stuff together for the night, told the girls where she was going and headed back to her boyfriends room.

As she let herself in with the room key she'd snagged from the table, she saw that Wade had fallen asleep in the short time she'd been gone.

A smile crossed her face and she quickly changed into her pajamas before sliding into bed. Even in his sleep, Wade reached out and pulled her close to him.

Nikki fell asleep soon after but before she did, she hoped that tomorrow would be better.
