A week had went by, and Adaline and John had barely spoke. She had meant what she said, and she would stand behind him, even if she didn't like it. John had been her best friend, through thick and thin, no matter what. There had been some bad times between the two, but they had made it and were still friends through it all.

She was more hurt than what she thought she would be, but she knew now it was time to get over him. She was forced to. She knew they would have ended up engaged by the end of the year, and no matter how long or how many times she had pushed it to the back of her head, the time had came. They were engaged and she had to move on.

Liz had managed to get under her skin even more than ever. Every time Adaline was in the same room as her, she would rub her still-tiny stomach, as if she had something to prove. Addie wanted what was best for John's unborn son or daughter, and if he thought it was him and Liz getting married, she supported that.

She knew John hadn't planned on becoming a father at 31, but he was ready to face anything that was thrown his way. It was in his nature. He never backed down from any challenge or obstacle that stood in his way, and she knew somehow, he would manage to be a great father and keep his career alive.

After passing a few Superstars and Divas in the hallways, she rounded a corner and smiled when she saw Randy talking with John and Liz. She hadn't seen Randy for some time and decided to say hello before getting down to her mounds of paperwork that had been building up. She was just told she had to draft her schedule for John's next three months, and she knew she would have to talk with him eventually. Now was as good a time as any.

"Hey, Killer." she said, hugging Randy warmly.

"Hey, Addie. How are you?" he asked, returning the hug.

"Good. Never been better." she replied before directing her attention to John and Liz. She smile and shook her head, acknowledging them both.

"Addie." Liz said, smiling brightly.

She rolled her eyes but decided against an argument today. She merely smiled at her before looking at John.

"I have to get your planner for the next 3 months. When you're ready, you know where I'll be." she said, before turning back to Randy. "Nice seeing you again. Tell Sam I said hello."

"Will do. Guys I've gotta jet. See you later." Randy said, jogging down the hallway.

"My planner inside my bag, if you wanna get it." John offered, smiling at her.

"I'll get it." Liz piped in, disappearing behind the door.

"So, you still coming tonight?" John asked.

"Yeah, don't have anything better to do." Adaline replied, staring around the hall.

"I haven't seen you much lately." he said, leaning into the wall.

"I could say the same thing about you." she shot back, folding her arms across her chest.

"Do we really have to be like this?" he asked.

"Like what John? Like friends?" she asked, smiling.

"Addie, we've always been close and now..." he said, before Liz reappeared, causing John to groan.

"I've gotta get going. I'll see you two tonight." John said, placing a kiss on Liz's cheek before brushing past Addie and staring at her.

"Bye, baby." Liz said, calling after him.

Adaline was about to ask about John's planner, when she was interrupted by Liz's cell phone ringing. Liz smiled before snapping it open and answering her call. Adaline sighed and leaned against the wall, waiting.

"I'll be just a minute." Liz said, going back into the locker room.

Adaline paced the length of the floor, waiting patiently for Liz to return. She could hear the conversation from the opened door and tried not eavesdropping, but it was almost too much for her resist. She heard the tapping of Liz's heels on the cement floor as she continued to talk.

"Yeah, I told him last week." Liz said.

Adaline inched closer to the door, leaning against the frame as she listened, trying to not make it obvious she was eavesdropping. She had a feeling Liz was hiding something and Addie was bursting to find out just what it was.

"No, I don't think.... No, I don't think he suspects anything. No one does." Liz laughed.

Adaline wondered what on Earth she was talking about.

What didn't John suspect?

"No, it's very real for him." Liz said, laughing again. "Alright, call me tonight. Later."

Adaline pushed herself off the wall and stood back slightly as Liz reentered the hallway and holding the large black book out.

"I guess this is what you need." Liz replied.

"That would be it. Thank you very much." Adaline said, turning around.

"I'm onto you, you know?" Liz said, folding her arms across her chest.

"What the hell are you talking about?" Adaline asked, turning back around.

"I know what you're about. I know you've wanted John ever since we got together. I'm not stupid." Liz smiled evilly.

"Liz, honestly, if I wanted John, I could have him. The simple fact is, I don't. And even if I did, John's going to realize sooner or later that he doesn't want you and he never did." Adaline said, glaring at her.

"When are you going to realize he doesn't want you?" Liz asked.

"When you wake up from your little dream world and realize that I am onto you. You're not as perfect as you think. You're going to fall from grace and when you do, I'll be there to pick up the pieces with John, not you." Adaline said, smiling back.

"What are you talking about?" Liz asked.

"Like I said, I'm onto you. I know your hiding something and I'm going to find out." she said, turning on her heel and walking down the hallway.

"I didn't think you were going to show." Randy said, stepping beside her.

"John's my friend. Of course, I'd be here." Adaline said, not looking at him.

"It should be you." Randy said, looking at her.

"What are you talking about?" Adaline asked, looking at him briefly before staring back at the people on the dance floor.

"It should be you he's up there with. It should be you and him at your engagement party. Not her and you know it." Randy said.

"Randy, even if I were to agree with you, the fact remains the same. It's not; she's pregnant with his kid and there's nothing anyone can do about it." Adaline said, sighing.

"He still loves you." Randy said, taking a sip from his drink.

"And I'll believe that when Liz isn't pregnant." Adaline said, smirking.

"Hey, you wanna dance?" a familiar voice asked.

Adaline turned around and smiled when she saw the familiar face of Jeff Hardy. They had dated when she first started in the WWE, but it hadn't lasted, but their friendship had. They had remained great friends and they didn't get to see each other often, but when they did, they still got along.

"Sure. See you later, Randy." Adaline said, waving behind her as they made their way onto the dance floor.

She was finally enjoying herself at John's engagement party and for the first time since his announcement, she had managed to forget about everything and enjoy herself, even if it was for 5 minutes.

What she didn't know, was someone was watching them as well. And that someone was clearly not happy, nor was he enjoying what he saw.
