Best Review for Chapter 8 is from...

Maizeandbluekid

"Though this was a "cooldown" or a "filler" chapter, this was wonderful amounts of filler. AJ figuratively AND literally had Punk in the palm of her hand. That whole scene in the bed had a lot of realistic dialogue attached to it, which is something I always look for in good fics. I also thought her showing concern about Punk's table spot was adorable.

But alas, the nosy and catty Total Bitches are now gonna be ganging up on AJ again once periodhead Eva tells them what she saw. Hopefully, someone is gonna have AJ's back again when the time comes.

Now all that's left is the Cubs game. That may be my most anticipated chapter yet! I'm sure you'll knock it out of the park (no pun intended, lol) with it. Good work, SC."


24 September 2013

AJ had just finished going over her match with Cameron for the final time. It was going to be a short match, the usual amount of time the divas are usually given. Although in this case such a short match was understandable considering Cameron's inexperience in one-on-one competition, AJ could not help but wonder what could have been had the follow up for her 'pipebombshell' gone through. A lot of the spotlight would have been shifted to the divas' division and the matches they would have would probably be longer. She had to admit to herself that she was starting to feel a little demotivated and less upbeat when it came to her matches nowadays.

Nevertheless, she luckily had something else she could focus on while at work and that was her relationship with Punk. She had arrived at the BMO Harris Bank Center in Milwaukee together with Punk by using his bus but he decided to just stay in the bus until she was done since he was not on the card for the night. He also chose not to go around backstage and talk with some of the other guys to avoid them asking him why he was there. It was common knowledge to most in the locker room that if CM Punk was not scheduled to be on a show, he would not even be backstage. Still, Punk and AJ made sure to not feel like they were separated from each other by constantly texting to one another. They were slowly becoming each other's addiction and upon entering the divas' locker room, AJ remained glued to her phone before eventually reaching her locker and sitting on the bench in front of it.

"Hey, who ya texting there?" Kaitlyn curiously asked after walking over to AJ as AJ giggled to herself after reading a message from Punk.

"Huh?" AJ simply replied, distracted by the content on her phone. AJ's giggles faded away as she slowly looked up to the two toned diva.

"I said, who are you texting there?" she repeated her question once again as AJ finally looked at her instead of the phone, "You seem to be totally engrossed in it."

"Oh, it's... It's just my sister. She was telling me this funny thing Nacho did," she lied to Kaitlyn, wanting to keep her and Punk's relationship a secret, even from her.

"Oh, anyways, I just came here to give you a little heads up. There's rumours going around about you and Punk but I wouldn't really give it too much of a thought," she informed her as AJ locked her phone and placed it beside her on the bench, giving Kaitlyn her utmost attention.

"What rumours?" AJ asked, giving Kaitlyn a look of complete puzzlement.

"That you and him are fooling around behind Amy's back," she clarified, causing AJ's eyes to widen in surprise.

"What?!" AJ shouted, alerting some of the other divas in the locker room, before softening her voice, "Who told you this?"

"E, he overheard Nick and Mike talking about it," she answered, "According to E, it's basically the talk of the locker room."

"Oh god, how the hell did this even get started?"

"From what E told me, someone allegedly saw you and Punk being all intimate and cosy in one of the rooms," she made it known to AJ as she simply responded with another shriek.

"What?!"

"Fuck! Somebody saw us?! But the door was closed... I even locked it. How the hell did someone see us?" AJ thought momentarily as Kaitlyn continued.

"I know, crazy right? At least make yourself known if you're gonna spread a rumour like that. Don't hide and do it anonymously," Kaitlyn folded her arms and shook her head disapprovingly.

"Yeah..." AJ sighed.

"Oh and to top it off, they're saying there's further proof that something's going on between you two since you wore his shirt at comic con a couple of days ago. I mean, how is that proof? If I remember correctly, Punk recently wore Cesaro's shirt, does it mean they're fucking?" Kaitlyn rhetorically questioned.

"You were simply showing your support for a friend so it really bugs me how this rumour started and is going around. They're dragging your name through the dirt by accusing you of cheating with Punk when that isn't the case at all," she said as some of the other divas in the room looked on at the two of them.

"Ummm, can we talk..." AJ started as she took a quick glance around the room before looking back at Kaitlyn, "Like in private?"

"Huh? Why?" Kaitlyn asked, perplexed.

"We just need to, ok?" AJ stood up from the bench, a little annoyed at her friend's question.

"Wait, it isn't true is it?" she asked in a low voice.

"No!" AJ replied loudly before falling to a whisper, "God no, but it isn't entirely false."

"What do you mean? What did you do?" Kaitlyn quizzed her as AJ frantically surveyed the room, noting the eyes directed at them.

"Just follow me," AJ totally ignored her question and pulled Kaitlyn by her hand towards the exit of the locker room.

"What's that all about?" Brie asked, looking on as AJ left the room with Kaitlyn following behind her.

"Looks like she found out about the rumour and was freaking out about it," Nikki answered as a smirk crept up on her face.

"Wow, if so, what Eva said was true then. She wasn't lying," Brie replied, a little surprised at the news.

"I told y'all her and Punk had something going on," she said with a snap of her fingers in an 'I told you so' attitude, "It was so obvious that something was happening behind the scenes. They hung out together too much to have been just friends. It turns out they're friends with benefits."

"Yeah, you were right after all. I mean, AJ looked like she was having a panic attack just now," Natalya added, a very soft chuckle followed her words.

"Wouldn't you do the same if people found out about your dirty little secret?" Nikki teasingly asked, receiving nods from Brie and Natalya.

"Yeah, I guess so... But... I still can't believe she would do such a thing. She looks up to and respects Amy a lot," Naomi said, still unable to accept the news surrounding AJ.

"Well, she always wanted to be like Amy and now, she's done it," Nikki joked as Brie and Natalya laughed along.

"Stop... That's not funny," Naomi said, crossing her arms in disapproval.

"Lighten up Trin," Nikki playfully shoved Naomi by her shoulder, "Even you know it's fucked up for her to be cheating with the boyfriend of her supposed idol."

"Ugh, can we not gossip about other's personal lives?" Naomi asked, peeved by the whole situation, "I feel uncomfortable back mouthing her when we're also not sure if the story is even true."

"Did you not see how she reacted just now?" Natalya questioned Naomi.

"Maybe she wasn't reacting to the rumour," Naomi replied defensively.

"Doubt it, why else would she constantly look around the room nervously and scream every now and then?" Nikki posed her argument towards Naomi.

"Still, can we talk about something else?" Naomi pleaded for the final time, hoping the girls would just drop the topic entirely.

"Fine goodie two shoes," Nikki hesitantly agreed before cajoling the girls, "We've got a scene to shoot for 'Total Divas' anyways so let's not waste any more time."


"I think this is quiet enough," AJ commented as she surveyed the office room, making sure it was completely empty.

"Ok, so you mind telling me what's going on?" Kaitlyn asked as AJ finally stopped checking the room.

"I will, once you lock the door," AJ pointed to the door before sitting on the edge of a desk.

"Ugh, fine if it'll finally get you to talk," Kaitlyn said in an annoyed tone as she walked towards the door and locked it.

"Now spill," she instructed AJ as she leaned on the now locked door with her arms folded.

AJ sighed loudly before speaking up, "That rumour is partly true."

"Which part?" Kaitlyn raised an eyebrow before she pushed herself off the door and walked towards AJ, "The fooling around with Punk behind Amy's back?"

"No!" AJ answered defiantly before fiddling with her fingers and looking down at them, "Only the fooling around part..."

"What?! You and him?!" Kaitlyn exclaimed in total shock.

"Yeah..." she confirmed softly, still looking down at her fidgety fingers.

"But how? When? Why?" she asked frantically before shaking AJ by her shoulders, "Gimme details, girl!"

"Ooooooooookaaayyyyyyyy," AJ said before Kaitlyn finally stopped shaking her.

"Well?"

"We were... Kinda... Making out yesterday in one of the trainer's room," she revealed slowly and a little hesitantly as Kaitlyn's jaw dropped.

"You two are dating?!" Kaitlyn said a little too loudly for AJ's liking, "Or is it a friends with benefits kinda thing?"

"We're dating, been dating since last week. And I'm not that kind of girl you know..." AJ crossed her arms, a little annoyed.

"So Amy's not with him anymore?" AJ shook her head in reply.

"He broke up with her to be with me," she revealed as Kaitlyn raised her eyebrows in surprise.

"Wow... Does Amy know about you two?"

AJ sighed, "No..."

"What happens when she does find out?" Kaitlyn quizzed the tiny diva, noticing the sudden sadness coming over her.

"Dunno," she sighed once more, "Don't really wanna think about that to be honest."

"Is he worth it though?"

"Yes," she quickly answered, "Yes he is. I like being with him. He makes me happy, very, very happy."

"Ok then, that's all I wanted to hear. Your happiness is the most important thing, nothing else matters," she said reassuringly before placing a hand on AJ's shoulder.

"Thanks, I really appreciate your support," she said as she gave Kaitlyn a warm smile.

"Don't mention it, I've always liked the idea of you two together. Sounds like a great fit," Kaitlyn returned the smile as she removed her hand from AJ's shoulder.

"You've been reading fanfics, haven't you?" AJ teased, holding up her index finger at Kaitlyn.

"From time to time," she replied with a shrug of the shoulders, "Can I just say, people love you guys. There are just so many stories of you two!"

AJ softly chuckled at her friend before sighing, "Well they won't be if this rumour gets out to the dirtsheets."

"It won't. It's not true and there's no proof."

"It's the dirtsheets, they don't need proof or truth. They just need a juicy story."

"Well, whatever the case may be, I'm sure Punk will not let this story get out."

"Phil! Crap!" AJ palmed her forehead, "I totally forgot about him. He's so gonna overreact once he hears about this!"

"Isn't that a good thing?" Kaitlyn asked, perplexed.

"No, he's gonna go up to each guy in the locker room and threaten them until he finds out who started the rumour," she elaborated, her voice tainted with panic.

"Still don't see how that's bad. People know his position back here so if he does do something like that, no one will dare leak it out for fear of being pushed down the card," she explained, trying to bring some comfort to AJ.

"Maybe you're right... But I'm gonna tell him later anyways so he doesn't make a scene back here... But only when the bus is miles away from the arena," AJ chuckled at the end as Kaitlyn laughed along.

"Heh, smart girl. So how's the bus life?" Kaitlyn asked in curiosity.

"It's nice I guess. Better than how we normally travel, that's for sure."

"Awww, I'm jealous," she frowned playfully, "Wait, isn't there a big bed in it?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Have you two... You know... Done it?" Kaitlyn asked as she poked AJ on her shoulder playfully.

"Yeah, just once though," she giggled shyly as a faint, pink blush formed on her cheeks.

"So was it good?"

"It was mind-bogglingly awesome," AJ declared happily, recalling the fateful night her and Punk became intimate with each other for the very first time.

"Whoa, he's that good in bed?" Kaitlyn smiled, happy for her friend, before AJ nodded her head in response.

"Mhmm, he definitely lives up to his name alright," she giggled once more, referring to his 'Best in the World' tag.

"So how was your first date then?" another question left Kaitlyn's lips as her curiosity in her friend's relationship continued to increase.

"Oh, ummm…" she started as she ran her index finger on the desk she was sitting on, "We haven't exactly gone out on a date yet."

"What?! You two are dating but you haven't gone out on a date yet?" Kaitlyn exclaimed in surprise.

"We've been busy, that's all. I wasn't free last week 'cause of comic con and anyways, he's taking me out sometime this week," AJ explained, hoping to play down the situation.

"Oh, I see. So where's he taking you?"

"I don't know, he's been stubbornly keeping it a secret from me," her words stung with annoyance as she furrowed her eyebrows.

"I'm sure he means well. He probably planned out something special and didn't wanna ruin it by telling you ahead of time. I think it's sweet that he's keeping it a secret, it sounds much more exciting," Kaitlyn said reassuringly, offering another smile to the tiny diva.

"Yeah, I guess so. I didn't really think about it that way before."

"Of course you didn't, you haven't been in a relationship in a long time, unlike myself," Kaitlyn boasted as she placed her hand over her chest.

"So I take it you and PJ are doing good?" AJ asked Kaitlyn about her relationship for a change.

"More than good, it's been great so far but we're old news. I wanna know more about you and Punk," Kaitlyn quickly changed the topic back to AJ's relationship as AJ merely rolled her eyes and shook her head at her friend's eagerness and interest.

"What else do you wanna know?" AJ questioned with a slight giggle.

"Did you guys just make out in the room?"

"Yup."

"I somehow don't believe that," Kaitlyn crossed her arms as a sly smile formed on her face.

"Ok, maybe we felt each other up a bit but that's it really," AJ admitted.

"Are you sure nothing else happened?" Kaitlyn's smile became bigger and bigger as she moved her index finger in and out of her loose fist of her other hand repeatedly.

"Oh please, we wouldn't dare do that while at work."

"You're such a liar! You so wanted to screw him in that room if it weren't for his bad back!" the voice in AJ's head reprimanded her.

"You never know, maybe that's how people found out about you two," Kaitlyn teased, bringing out a gasp from AJ.

"I'm not that loud!"

"Really April? 'Cause I've heard you scream before and it can be quite deafening," she informed her.

"Not to him, he loves it when I scream his name," AJ defended while folding her arms again.

"Oh, he does?" Kaitlyn's sly smile formed once again as AJ instantly realised she may have divulged too much to her best friend.

"Actually, scratch that. Forget I said anything. Just know we didn't have sex in that room," AJ quickly said, trying to come back on her words.

"Not even a little..." Kaitlyn went on to repeatedly move her loose fist back and forth in front of her mouth as her tongue pricked the inner wall of her cheek.

AJ gasped again in response, "For your information, it hasn't been in my mouth yet."

"Yet?" Kaitlyn snorted at AJ's slip of the tongue.

"Ugh!" AJ groaned loudly as she pushed herself off the desk and walked past Kaitlyn towards the door, "I can't believe I'm talking to you about my sex life."

"Hey, you're the one doing all the talking... Or should I say screaming," Kaitlyn chuckled loudly as AJ unlocked the door.

"Ugh! I hate you!" AJ shouted in irritation before opening the door and slamming it shut on her way out of the room.


AJ had just finished her match with Cameron and was now making her way towards Punk's bus. She had made a quick change of her clothes but decided to shower in the bus instead because she did not want to waste any more time being away from Punk. Knocking on the door of the familiar vehicle, she was greeted with the sight of the bus driver on the other side of the door.

"Hey April, let me carry your luggage for you," Joe offered before picking her suitcase up and bringing it into the bus.

"Thanks Joe," she replied gratefully before closing the door on her way into the bus.

"No problem missy," he said as he placed her bag down on the floor, "So we good to go?"

"Yup," she simply replied as Joe proceeded to move to the driver's seat and start up the bus. AJ, meanwhile, pushed her rolling suitcase towards the bedroom, eager to see her boyfriend.

"Hi," AJ said after sliding the door open to see Punk reading one of his comics while lying on the bed with his head propped up by a pillow.

"Hey," Punk greeted as he placed the comic down by his side, "How was work?"

"Meh, the usual," she rested her suitcase on its side and kicked off her shoes. She then plopped herself on the bed beside Punk before placing a soft kiss on his lips.

"I missed you," she said with a smile after pulling away from him.

"I missed you too," he said before scrunching up his nose, "Did you shower? You smell a little."

"No I didn't. I wanted to shower here instead," AJ revealed as she rested the side of her head down on the pillow and faced him.

"Why?"

"Because I thought there was no point in showering if I was going to be dirty later anyways," AJ giggled as she ran her hand up and down Punk's upper body.

"Well you should shower then 'cause you're not gonna get dirty tonight," Punk instructed as AJ quickly stopped her hand motion.

"Why not?" she whined sadly, "It's been a week already."

"Well, we're gonna need all the energy we can get since we're going on our first date tomorrow," Punk revealed as AJ quickly crawled on top of his body.

"Our date's tomorrow?" AJ giddily asked as Punk let out a chuckle at her eagerness and placed his hands on her lower back.

"Yup, excited?"

"Very," she beamed a giant smile at him, "So where are we going?"

"You'll find out tomorrow, sweetheart," he teased before pecking her lips.

"Awww," AJ rested her chin on his chest and was now looking up at him, "I hate surprises."

"Trust me, it's better if you don't know where and what we're gonna be doing tomorrow," he reassured.

"Because you don't wanna know what I have planned," Punk continued in his head. In all honesty, he was not sure if what he had planned to do for their date was good enough for her and he was extremely nervous about her reaction to it. Keeping it a surprise seemed to be a good idea to him.

"Ok... I trust you," she said as she rested the side of her head on his chest and closed her eyes, enjoying the comfort of his body.

"So you're not gonna take a shower?" he asked, looking down at the top of her head.

"Later…" AJ groaned as she wrapped her arms around his midsection tightly.

"Alright, alright," Punk chuckled as he caressed her long, dark locks with his hand.


25 September 2013

AJ woke up the next day to the smell of toast being made. Opening her eyes, she realised Punk had already gotten up from bed. Once she pushed herself up off the bed, she noticed she was still wearing the same clothes from yesterday night. She had somehow managed to unknowingly fall asleep on top of Punk and instead of waking her up, he just let her sleep on top of him even though she still had not showered. Attracted to the sweet smell that had managed to creep through the bedroom door, AJ got off the bed and headed for the door. When she slid open the door, she was greeted with the sight of Punk flipping pieces of bread on a pan.

"You didn't wake me up," she whined softly as she hugged Punk from behind and snuggled the side of her head into his back, causing Punk to simply smile in happiness at the warmth of her body on his.

"You were sleeping so peacefully. I couldn't bear to wake you up," Punk said as he looked over his shoulder to see AJ still burying her head into his back.

"You should've woken me up. Now I just dirtied the bed," she mumbled as Punk shifted his focus back onto the toast he was making.

"The only thing you dirtied was my clothes," Punk chuckled as AJ's head shot up from his back.

"I slept on top of you for the entire night?" AJ asked in surprise as she manoeuvred her head so that she could see the side of his face.

"Yup, like a baby."

"I'm sorry," she apologised, burying her head once more into his back, "It must have been hard for you to sleep with me on top of you."

Punk quickly turned his body so that she would be facing his front instead. He then lifted her chin up with his hand so that their eyes could meet, "Don't apologise. It was the best sleep I've ever had."

"Really?" AJ asked as a smile slowly etched onto her face.

"Definitely, it was so warm and comfortable and your heartbeat was so soothing. Plus, you're not that heavy if you hadn't noticed," Punk chuckled as AJ playfully slapped his chest.

"So what are you cooking over here?" she asked, looking around Punk's body to see what was on the pan.

"Just some French toast. In fact, the rest of your breakfast is actually ready over there," he said, motioning with his head towards the dining table where two plates of food lay.

"My breakfast?" she repeated before letting go of her hold on Punk and moving over to the table.

"Yup, all your-" a 'ding' sound interrupted Punk before he looked over to the coffee maker, "Oh sweet, coffee's ready."

"Phil, you didn't have to go through all of this trouble," AJ said as she looked over the food that lay on the plates. It consisted of eggs, pancakes, hash browns and pieces of bacon.

"Oh but I want to. I've been meaning to cook for you so here it is," he revealed as he took out the carafe from the coffee maker and made his way towards the table with it.

"This is a lot Phil, how long did you take to cook all of this?" AJ sat on the seat, amazed at the food on display.

"It didn't take that long. Hopefully you'll like it," he proceeded to pour the coffee into the cups that accompanied the plates of food, "And there you go, breakfast is served."

"Wow," that was all that escaped AJ's lips as she still could not believe her boyfriend had managed to do all of this.

"Oh wait, I almost forgot about the toast," he swiftly took the pan off the induction cooker and slid the pieces of toasted bread onto both of their plates, "There, now breakfast is officially served."

"There's just so much, I feel full just looking at it," AJ commented as she held a fork and knife in her hands.

"It's not that much," Punk chuckled as he sat across her before picking up his utensils off the table, "C'mon now, dig in."

He watched on as AJ started on the eggs, "I didn't know how you liked your eggs so I made both scrambled and sunny side up-"

"Holy crap! This is delicious!" AJ said out loud in pure satisfaction after taking in a mouthful of scrambled eggs, "What the hell did you put in this?"

"Just some seasoning, pepper, salt. The usual," Punk chortled as he witnessed her taking another bite of the eggs.

"No way, you had to have put something else in this," she said before quickly stuffing the already last piece of scrambled eggs into her mouth.

"Love," he answered simply, causing AJ to almost spit out her food in laughter.

"Too cheesy?" Punk chuckled as AJ managed to swallow her food back down.

"Kinda," she giggled before placing her hand on top of his which was resting on the table, "But it was sweet, like the rest of this meal."

"You haven't even tasted the rest of the food, especially the pancakes," he emphasised on the pancakes he made using a recipe of Natalie's which he was very proud of.

"I don't need to, I know it'll be nice," she smiled warmly at him before she continued with the rest of her meal. For the rest of the time, the room was just filled with constant approving moans from AJ as she thoroughly enjoyed the food Punk had cooked for her. He was glad that he could make AJ this happy and he hoped it would carry on for the rest of the day.

"Where are we?" AJ asked as she looked out the windows, finally realising that they had been stationary since she woke up. The view through the windows featured rows of houses and shops on either side of a street which the bus was currently parked on.

"My house," he answered as he picked up both their empty plates and placed them in the dishwasher.

"Y-Your house?" AJ stuttered momentarily while casting her eyes back and forth between the two windows either side of her.

"Yup, it's the beige building on your left, beside the yellow one," he informed her as she got off her seat and leaned against the couch, looking out the window to see a three storey building with three big windows cascading on its front.

"This whole building is your house?!"

"Nah, only the top two floors. The bottom floor is a tattoo shop which I collect rent from," he said as he closed the dishwasher after putting in all of their used plates and utensils and headed to the bedroom to fetch her luggage.

"I see..." AJ's voice softened to a whisper as she admired his house which just from the outside, was already much bigger than her own apartment.

"Well, you ready to see inside?" Punk walked over to her with her rolling suitcase in his hand.

"Hell yeah!" her excitement knew no bounds as she leapt off the couch and moved towards her luggage bag, "But first, I gotta take a shower in here. It'll only take fifteen minutes."

"My house is just a couple of feet away and you wanna take a shower in the bus?" Punk sniggered.

"Oh, but I don't wanna intrude..."

"Nah, you're not," he closed the gap between their bodies until barely an inch separated them.

"You're my girlfriend now, I'd hardly call you an intruder," his words ended with a soft chuckle as he moved a couple of loose strands of hair away from her face, reddening her cheeks in turn.

"Thanks," she simply uttered, almost breathless as she looked deeply into the emerald orbs of the Voice of the Voiceless.

"And plus, you'll need to get used to using the bathroom in my house since you'll be staying over for the night," he added with a wink.

"I will?"

"Yeah you will. I have an entire day planned out so you're stuck here until at least tomorrow," he brought his arms to her lower back and softly pulled her towards him.

"Phil, I don't wanna cause too much trouble for you. I can always leave for Tampa tonight after we're done," she said, drawing circles with her finger on his chest.

"It's no trouble at all. Plus, you know how hard it is to sleep on the plane. Sleep in my comfortable bed instead and first thing in the morning, you'll leave for your flight," he suggested. AJ bit her lip, thinking about his offer for a moment before eventually making her decision.

"Ok, sounds like a plan," she grinned at him, "I'll book a flight for tomorrow then."

"That's my girl."

"Yup, now give your girl a kiss," she said, puckering her lips and getting on her tippy toes to move in for a kiss. Punk reacted by quickly moving his head away from her as AJ expressed a look of complete puzzlement.

"What the-"

"I'll only kiss you after you get yourself cleaned," Punk said, pulling away from her and reaching for her suitcase. AJ pouted and tilted her head down slightly with her eyes looking up at him like an adorable puppy, trying to change his mind.

"That isn't gonna work, April. Now go, let's not waste any more time," he pulled her suitcase in between them and lightly pushed it against her body, signalling for her to move.

"Fine," she groaned as she turned around and made her way to the exit of the bus. After getting off the bus, she had noticed that the bus driver's seat was empty when she walked by. When Punk finally stepped off the bus with her luggage, AJ spoke up.

"Where's Joe? Are we really gonna leave the bus here like this?"

"He's having breakfast in one of the cafés nearby. He'll fetch the bus when he comes back. Don't you worry, sweet cheeks," he told AJ as he closed the bus door.

He then led her to his house, passing by the tattoo shop and his car garage before taking a very short lift ride to the second floor. Once the doors parted, they walked a couple more feet until they arrived at a plain black door with a bluish, see through glass window panel above it.

"Welcome to my home," Punk said gleefully after opening the door and letting AJ in first.

"Whoa," that was all that merely escaped her lips as she walked past the kitchen and dining table which was flashy to say the least.

"Since when were you so into such… Such... Extravagant home interior?" she struggled finding a word to describe what her surroundings looked like.

"It came like this when I bought it but I actually quite like it," he revealed as he rested her luggage against the kitchen counter. AJ, in the meantime, continued looking around his lavish living room.

"This is crazy what you have in here. You have these big, black rectangular blobs stuck to the wall which serves no other purpose apart from decoration," she said, holding her hand out at the design of the wall behind the big TV as Punk chuckled at her jealous-like whining.

"Oh, and then you have a freaking cactus here," she shifted her hand towards the spine infested plant beside the couch, "Like why the hell do you need a cactus in here? It's not the desert and the thorns are just a pain in the ass."

Punk carried on laughing to himself as his girlfriend continued to ramble on and on about his house, "Your windows are thirty feet high and for some reason, you need three of them. Your kitchen is beautiful and you have a painting over there which I still can't for the life of me figure out what it's supposed to be."

"Seriously Phil, you could literally fit in at least thirty people in here and there'll still be more than enough room for more," she added, finally shifting her eyes back to him.

"You done?" Punk asked with a light laugh while his chin was propped up by his arm on the kitchen counter. For the entire time AJ was going on about his house, he had been just sitting on one of the bamboo stools that were adjacent to the counter and admiring her.

"Not really, I've seen at least three other things that I wanna comment on but I'll be out of breath by then," AJ said as she walked over to where Punk was sitting.

"It's what you get for two million dollars," he informed her with a shrug of the shoulders.

"Two million?!" her jaw simply dropped.

"What? You can't believe I spent that much on this house?"

"Kinda, I never took you as someone who spends lavishly, that's all," she said, leaning her side against the kitchen counter.

"It's true, I don't spend that much but I thought for a place I would probably call my home for the rest of my life, I should put a little more thought into it and not make money an issue," he explained.

"I bought this house not just for me but also for the family I might have one day," he added as a smile tugged on the corners of his lips. AJ returned the smile, hoping he thought of her when it came to his future family.

"Anyways, enough about me. You need some soap and water on you pronto. Follow me," Punk jumped off his seat and walked past her towards the staircase.

AJ responded by crossing her arms and glaring at him, "I don't smell that bad."

"You do, considering I'm too used to the sweet smell you always give off," he said as he stopped at the base of the flight of stairs to look at her blushing somewhat.

"Seriously, how do you come up with all of these sweet, romantic lines?" AJ asked, walking the same path Punk was on towards the stairs.

"It's a gift," he declared proudly before climbing the stairs with AJ following right behind him.

After getting to the top of the stairs and passing by three bedrooms, they finally reached the bathroom AJ was going to use.

"Oh... My... God..." AJ said breathlessly once she entered the bathroom, "T-This is your bathroom?"

"Yup, master bathroom to be exact. There's two more but this is the only one with a Jacuzzi," he said as he leaned his back against the wall near the door.

"Phil, this bathroom is bigger than the entire living room of my house!" AJ exclaimed, earning a chuckle from Punk.

"Your house is just an apartment, you can't compare mine with yours."

"Hm, maybe you should rethink this whole dating thing. You're totally out of my league," she jokingly mocked as Punk laughed as well.

"Nonsense. Anyways, there's also a dresser there for you to do your makeup but I have a feeling that will be of no use to you," he pointed to the dresser as he lightly laughed, knowing AJ hates applying makeup to her face and dolling herself up.

"Yeah, you know me too well," she replied with a chuckle, "I'll go down and take my clothes and stuff I need. Thanks for everything, Phil."

"No problem, short stuff. If you need anything else, just call me, ok?" Punk was just about to leave the room when AJ suddenly pushed him back against the wall he had been leaning on.

"All I need is your lips after I'm done here Punkybear so you better keep them warm for me," she said slowly in a hushed tone, licking her lips and biting her bottom lip as she looked back and forth between his eyes and his lips.

"Y-Yes ma'am," he saluted her playfully.

"Good boy," she patted his cheek before leaving the room with an extra skip in her step.


After AJ was done showering, the best shower she had ever taken, she walked back down the steps and saw Punk sitting down on the sofa nearest to the windows and watching an episode of the 'Walking Dead' on TV with a half-eaten banana in his hand.

"Did you keep your promise?" AJ asked in a seductive manner as she straddled his hips, taking his attention away from the TV screen.

"Oh, of course. I've been warming them up, you see," he wagged the banana he had been eating in front of her face. AJ instantly grabbed his wrist, stopping his hand movement. She parted her lips and slowly engulfed the banana while looking deep into his eyes. She stopped once she could not go any further and then bit the large chunk off, chewing it to smaller pieces. When she swallowed it down, she could feel his member growing hard from under her.

"Wow, just like that and already you're hard," she lightly chuckled as she wrapped her arms around his neck and moved closer to his face.

"That was so hot, I couldn't help it," he replied with a small laugh before pushing himself off the couch and closing the gap between their lips. Not one second had passed since their lips connected and both of them were already inviting their tongues to the party. Soft moans from the both of them, especially AJ, started to fill the massive room as they continued ravaging each other with their eyes completely shut in enjoyment.

"You... Smell... So... Good..." Punk said in between kisses as AJ smiled against his lips. Punk then tossed the remaining remnants of his banana aside and brought his hands to her hips, hooking his fingers into the belt loops of her cut up jeans and pulling her closer to him. They continued making out in that same position for roughly the next five minutes before AJ's hands started to roam. They descended his orange, skin tight shirt as her lips and tongue continued to work their magic until she eventually felt his belt buckle. She was just about to release the belt from the buckle when he quickly pulled away, summoning a loud groan from AJ.

"Phil..." AJ whimpered as her hands stayed still at his buckle, ready to open it up at any time.

"I'm sorry April, we can't do this right now. We're gonna be late," he said before moving her hands away from his waistline. AJ rolled off of him reluctantly and sat down beside him as another groan escaped her mouth.

"What guy rejects afternoon sex?"

"Not me," he said with a smile before moving in for a quick peck on her lips, "Except for today."

"Fine... Where are we going?" AJ asked, leaning her head against his shoulder.

"Somewhere you've never been before," he teased as a light snort came from AJ.

"I've only been to Chicago a couple of times, of course the majority of the places here are places I've never been to."

"God, you can be so snarky at times," he chuckled softly.

"But you like it," she giggled as she pushed her head off his shoulder and tilted his head towards her before going in for a brief kiss.

"Mhmm, yes I do," he said after they pulled away, "Now let's go. Bring along your jacket, Chicago can get very cold."

Punk and AJ both made their way out of the house and to his car garage. When she saw the car they were about to ride in, a Mercedes CLS 63, another gasp evoked from AJ as she wondered just how he could afford all of this. The ride itself lasted approximately twenty minutes and the time was mostly spent with AJ pestering Punk on where they going before they eventually pulled up at a parking lot of a large building. After exiting the car, they set off on foot for the entrance of the building.

"What's this building?" AJ queried, walking side by side with Punk.

"You'll see," he replied with a grin as he waved at some people who were chanting 'CM Punk' at him. After turning the corner, her question was answered when she looked up to see a giant red welcoming sign which read 'Wrigley Field, Home of Chicago Cubs'.

"Baseball?"

"Yup," Punk confirmed with another grin as they walked past the gate, entering the 99 years old ballpark.

"Phil, I'm gonna be honest here. I've never been to a baseball game before and I don't really follow it," she admitted, a worried look forming on her face.

"I know, it doesn't matter to me. I just want to share with you what I love to do in my spare time," he shrugged as they walked out into the light to see a large field.

"Whoa," she uttered. Even though she had seen a baseball field many a times on TV, it was somehow different to see it in person. It was much bigger and grander than what she had imagined.

"And our seats are right... Here," Punk announced as he looked at the tickets in his hands to double check that the seats were theirs.

"Whoa, we're so close to the field and the players," she commented, sitting down on the dark green seats beside Punk which were only two rows away from the field and one concrete wall away from the players' dugout.

"This must've cost a fortune, Phil," she remarked, turning her attentions back to Punk.

"Compared to the normal seats, it did but I love being close to the action. Plus, there'll be lesser people around to bother us," he said, bringing AJ's eyes to the deserted seats surrounding them.

"You wouldn't need to buy these seats if you weren't such a cult hero here," she said with a smirk.

"I'm not a hero. Chicago just happens to not have much going on at the moment in sports other than Derrick Rose and the Blackhawks. But still, the people here will support anyone who represents Chicago and I just happen to be one of them," he revealed as his Chicago pride started showing through.

"It must be a pain though to live in a city where everyone recognises you. Do you ever get any privacy?"

"Ironically, Chicago's the only place where people are constantly friendly towards me and respect my privacy. I rarely get bothered when walking around the city," he said as AJ's eyebrows ascended in surprise.

"Wow, I thought for sure you'd get the movie star treatment. Guess someone isn't as big a star as they think," AJ teased, smirking once more at him.

"Yeah, I guess I'm not. I'm only a wrestler who makes millions of dollars and has just as many fans and who just happens to have had his documentary premiered at a theatre and the DVD sell remarkably well. I'm not like AJ Lee who-" Punk instantly fell to a hush, tapping his lips repeatedly with his index finger in deep thought as AJ sighed and rolled her eyes, "Who… Hmmm… Errr-"

"You're such an egotistical ass," she cut him off as she shook her head.

"Thank you," he contentedly accepted her insult and leaned back against his seat, "Now hush, the game is about to start."

"Boys and their sports," she thought with a shake of the head before taking the opportunity to get close to him by leaning on the armrest that separated her and Punk, leaving a little less than half of her seat unoccupied.

Punk enjoyed her being in such close proximity to him while he watched his hometown team play and for the next two innings, they remained in that same position as their bodies radiated much needed warmth to each other amid the cold of Chicago. AJ seized the chance to take a quick peek at Punk during one of the many pauses in play, pulling her hair to one side and turning her head towards him.

"I can't tell if he's bored like me or focused on the game. One thing's for sure, he looks absolutely yummy," AJ told herself in her head before casting her gaze back to the game.

"Hah, caught you staring," Punk said, donning a stupid grin after turning his head to face her.

"I was not!" she denied vehemently.

"Yeah you were, you just can't resist me, can you?" his grin grew larger and larger, growing hand in hand with his ego.

"Ugh, not everything has to be about you, you know?"

"Ok then, what or who were you looking at then?" he put her on the spot as his grin remained the same.

"Errr…" AJ started as she pushed up the bridge of her spectacles, trying to think of a believable and valid answer.

"Don't feed his already big ego, April. The last thing you want is him gloating about your overwhelming urge to just tear his clothes off right here, right now," she bit her lip, thinking for a moment while looking to her left before coming up with an answer, "The players sitting over there."

"They're interesting to look at?" Punk asked in disbelief in an 'are you kidding me?' tone.

"Well, yeah... It's not like there's anything interesting happening in front of me," she sneered, causing Punk to let out a laugh.

"Ouch, that's my pastime you're talking about," he playfully pouted, placing his hand over his chest.

"You're a big boy, you can handle criticism," she giggled, poking his cheek, "I just don't know how you can sit here for so long with barely anything happening."

"Yeah, there are a lot of delays in baseball. They even stop play for commercials but once something happens, it's exciting. You just have to be patient," he tapped her nose when he said 'you', causing her to giggle shyly.

"Alright, I'll give it a chance," she returned to lean on her arm rest, practically snuggling up to his arm and leaving no space between them.

"Any closer and you'll be sitting on my lap," Punk chuckled, looking down at their arms kissing one another.

"I could just sit waaaaaaaaay over there," she said as she turned her head to face the empty part of her seat.

"I didn't say I didn't like you being so close to me," he nudged her on the arm with his, "I just thought you didn't want to show any PDA in case the fans find out."

"It's a baseball game, Phil. There's thousands of people in here, they won't know we're even here," she said, playing down the chances of them getting caught acting like a couple.

"Plus, I really like snuggling up to my boyfriend. It's just so warm and nice," AJ flirtatiously added, pushing her arm against him even more.

"Yeah, it really is," he agreed with AJ as he looked on at her trying to focus on the game.

"She's so adorable and loving. I really am the luckiest guy in the world right now," Punk admitted in his thoughts with a smile on his face before turning back to concentrate on the game.

AJ actually slowly started to enjoy herself as the game progressed. Whether it was because she was finally understanding why people enjoy watching baseball or because she was spending the time with someone special, she had to admit it was so far going great. Sure she had to ask Punk every now and then what was happening but he was more than willing to explain it to her. When the game reached the seventh inning, one of the players batted a foul ball into the sky and it was falling into Punk and AJ's vicinity.

"Phil! The ball!" AJ shouted, pointing to the ball that was heading towards them.

"I got it, I got it," Punk declared, standing up and holding his hands up to catch the ball as AJ covered her head with her hands. It was her first baseball game after all so she did not really know how to react to a ball coming at her other than to cower in fear and hope it did not hit her.

"There," he said after successfully catching the ball.

"My hero," she claimed playfully, clasping her hands together as Punk went back to sit down on his seat, now with a ball in his hands.

"Ah, saving the fearful damsel in distress. Didn't think I'd be doing that during a baseball game," he let out a hearty laugh as AJ slapped him on the arm.

"The ball was dropping really fast, I thought it was gonna hit me," she defended.

"Well you thought wrong, nothing's gonna hit you while your knight in shining armour is here," Punk boasted as he threw the ball in the air and caught it repeatedly. AJ rolled her eyes and accompanied it with several shakes of the head. He was such a Casanova with his words and she was just about to reply to him when a bald headed man in a lavender shirt sat behind Punk and placed his hand on top of his shoulder.

"CM Punk," the man said.

"Vijay!" Punk greeted in an upbeat tone after he turned his head back to face the man. The man was in fact the traveling secretary for the Chicago Cubs, Vijay Tekchandani. He was in charge of the traveling needs of the players and also happened to be a friend of Punk's. He was the one who managed to book these amazing seats for Punk and AJ.

"How's it going, man?"

"I'm good, especially since we're winning which hasn't been happening much as of late," Vijay dryly laughed.

"Yeah, I'm fortunate that I managed to come to a game where the Cubs are actually winning," Punk laughed along before a thought came across his mind, "Crap, where are my manners. Vijay, this is my girlfriend, April."

Punk turned towards AJ, introducing Vijay to his girlfriend.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, April Brooks," Vijay offered his hand as AJ's cheeks were shaded with a hint of pink.

"Nice to meet you too," AJ replied shyly with a shake of his hand. Although his light playful jab did embarrass her, she could not help but like the sound of 'April Brooks'. She thought it had a nice ring to it. It was also weird having Punk introduce her as his girlfriend. It was new to her but eventually she would get used to it and like hearing it. It undeniably did bring a smile to her face, knowing Punk was proud to show her off on his arm.

"Damn it Vijay, not one minute has passed and already you're embarrassing my girlfriend," Punk hit him on the arm with his clenched fist which was still holding onto the ball as Vijay lightly laughed.

"I'm just joking around. I hope I didn't offend you, Miss-" Vijay said in an apologising tone before pausing to get to know her real last name.

"Mendez, but you can just call me April. No need to be so formal," she offered a warm smile which Vijay happily returned in kind.

"Alright April, I hope you're having a wonderful time here."

"I am, thanks to this guy over here," she nudged Punk on the arm this time around.

"Ah, the boyfriend who just happened to catch the ball just now," Vijay jokingly mocked, "You know, I actually came here to offer you a brand new ball."

"Not interested Tekchandani," Punk replied quickly.

"Are you sure?" Vijay received a new ball from one of his staff members before showing it to Punk, "It's new and has that fresh baseball smell, unlike the one you're holding."

"Do you really think I'm stupid? You got that from the souvenir shop, didn't you?" Punk accused him in a light hearted manner as Vijay broke out into laughter.

"It's authentic, Phil. Honest," he innocently claimed as Punk just shook his head.

"Nope, not giving up this ball."

"You sure?" Vijay asked again as he placed his fist which was clenching the 'new' ball on Punk's shoulder, offering it to him one last time.

"Nah, keep it," Punk said as a soft chuckle followed before turning his attentions back to the game.

"Alright, suit yourself," Vijay said, handing the ball back to his worker.

Punk and Vijay continued to talk between themselves for the next five minutes with the topic of conversation mainly being baseball and what each of them had been doing since they last met. In the midst of their conversation, Vijay was alerted by a vibration from his phone in the pocket of his pants. After he took it out and read the message, he patted Punk's shoulder, "Well, I hope you and April will enjoy the rest of your time here, I need to get going soon. You sure you don't want a new ball? Last offer."

"You're going to have to pry this ball out of my hands, baldy," Punk joked as Laura Ricketts, one of the board of directors of the Cubs, and AJ laughed along with Vijay.

"You just had to go there, huh Punk?" Vijay asked, trying to stifle his giggles.

"It's not my fault you can no longer grow your hair. I'm keeping this game ball, Vijay, and don't you dare offer me again, you hair follicle challenged man," Punk continued to hurl insults as Vijay just dropped his head in shame and light laughter. During all of this, AJ was just looking up at Punk and giggling like a school girl who has a massive crush on the school jock.

"I'll give you one thing though, you sure are persistent. If I wanted a new ball, I would go down to the shop myself and buy one," Punk added as AJ nodded along.

"Ok, ok, I give up," Vijay said, admitting defeat.

Punk tapped Laura on the shoulder, causing her to turn back her head to face him, "Can you believe him Laura?"

"Trying to offer a man a so called new ball for a game ball. I'm no fool, Vijay," Punk said out loud so Vijay could hear clearly.

"Yeah, yeah, blame a guy for trying to treat his guests right," Vijay said with a roll of the eyes before standing up from his seat, "Anyways, I really hope you two continue to have a good time here. I have to go. See you soon!"

"Bye!" both AJ and Punk replied.

"Thanks for everything, Vijay," Punk said gratefully.

"No problem, if you need any tickets in the future, just give me a ring," Vijay reminded him, walking away while waving goodbye at the two of them.

After Vijay left, Punk and surprisingly AJ continued to enjoy themselves as the Cubs notched a 4-2 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Cubs players then stopped between the third-base line and their dugout to salute the fans who gave them a standing ovation in turn.

"Is this normal?" AJ practically shouted over the loud screaming of the fans, moving closer to Punk to make herself heard.

"No, not really. It's because this is the last home game of the season," Punk replied just as loudly.

"Ohhhh, I see," she bobbed her head as the players tipped their caps and waved at the fans before eventually retreating into the home locker room for the last time this season.

"So where are we going now?" AJ asked as her and Punk walked past the gate, exiting the legendary ballpark.

"One of my favourite places to eat," he gleefully answered before reaching to his parked car. He opened the door for AJ and closed it when she got in. He then shuffled his feet around the front of the car to the driver side door before opening it and entering his car.

"I had a really good time," she smiled warmly at him as she placed her hand over his which was gripping the handbrake.

"Me too, and to top it all off, the Cubs actually won! We haven't been doing that much this season..."

"Really? But they played so well out there!"

"That could be because it's the last home game or..." Punk inched his face closer and closer to hers, "It could be because they had a good luck charm sitting in the stands who looked breathtakingly beautiful."

"I think it's the latter," she chuckled softly before closing the gap between them as they shared a loving kiss, one which had AJ's body lean over the center of the car slightly. AJ's right hand moved to the back of his neck, pulling him closer and deepening the kiss. They continued to enjoy each other's lips before a car horn jerked their heads away from each other.

"Did someone see us?" AJ asked in a panic state, quickly settling herself back on her seat.

"I don't think so," Punk replied a little unsure as he looked through the front and side windows, "I guess it was just some guy abusing his horn."

"Hopefully, could you imagine the dirtsheets if they somehow get a picture of us being all intimate with one another?" AJ questioned in a rhetoric manner.

"I doubt they care," he said in an attempt to calm her down as he started the ignition.

"They will, considering they'll have the proof they need to justify that stupid rumour! Should I tell him about it? But I don't wanna ruin this date... I'll just tell him first thing in the morning before I leave," AJ pondered while the car exited the parking lot.


The time it took to get to their next destination was incredibly short. They barely had any conversation between them before they arrived at a pizza place, 'Giordano's' to be exact. After informing the attendant, who was handling the long line of people who wanted to get in, their reservation, a waiter led Punk and AJ to a cushioned booth which surrounded a table with a red and white chequered table cloth on it.

"Whoa, the food here must be really good since there was such a long line out there," AJ commented as she picked up the menu.

"Yeah it is. In fact, the reason I brought you here is to let you taste Chicago style stuffed pizza," Punk said, looking over the menu.

"Stuffed pizza? I've never tasted those before," she revealed, putting her menu back down to look at Punk.

"Well, it's your lucky day then," Punk said in an upbeat manner, "We're gonna be eating the cheese with two ingredients. I'll pick sausage as one of the ingredients. What about you?"

"Errr..." she started as she skimmed through the list of ingredients on the menu with her finger, "Pepperoni, yeah pepperoni."

"Ok then, waiter!" he called over the same server that brought them to their table before placing their order.

They spent the next twenty minutes or so waiting for their pizza to arrive while chit chatting on all their favourite topics, ranging from the comics they were reading at the moment to the latest games they had been playing. When the pizza did eventually reach their table on a raised platter, AJ's eyes widened in shock.

"This is a pizza?!"

"Yup," Punk laughed to himself seeing the look on AJ's face right now.

"It looks like a pie!" she commented, poking the top of the pizza lightly with her fork and retreating away as if it was going to explode.

"It's not going to hurt you, April," he laughed as he cut up the pizza for her.

"It looks like a bloated pizza, I thought for sure it was just gonna spew its insides out," she said as Punk placed a slice of the pizza on her plate.

"Thanks."

She bowed her neck to be eye level with the slice of pizza in front of her, "Wow, it's basically dripping in cheese."

"Yup, eat up before all of its insides flow out," Punk advised before taking a chunk out of his slice. AJ mirrored Punk's movements and consumed a bite of the pizza.

"Mmm, this is delicious! The cheese just fills your mouth!" AJ exclaimed in pure happiness and satisfaction.

"I knew you'd like it," he said as AJ just nodded with a small smile while chewing the mouthful of food.

They continued to enjoy the deep dish pizza they ordered while picking up from where their last conversation ended before AJ remembered something.

"Oh wait, aren't you on a pescetarian diet?" AJ asked.

"I was, but my body is starting to feel a little jaded. I need some meat in this body," he chuckled, patting his already full stomach.

"Are you still feeling the effects of that botched table spot?" AJ questioned in concern, referring to the segment where Ryback messed up Punk's landing.

"Not really," he said with a shake of the head, "It's the other small injuries I'm dealing with."

AJ squinted her eyes at him, "Small?"

"Yes, small, like you," he mocked.

"I thought you like me being small."

"I do, it's much easier to dominate you in bed," Punk grinned slyly at her.

"Ugh, don't think so highly of yourself. I could've easily overpowered you the last time," she claimed confidently.

"Oh really?"

"Is that a challenge?"

"I'm up for it if you are," he said challengingly.

"I am but we still have some more pizza left," she looked at the last two big pizza slices on the platter.

"I can get it to go, unless you're already chickening out of it," another sly grin formed on his face.

"No way! You're on! Waiter!"


They left the pizzeria and headed to Punk's house in record time as their urges to prove each other wrong and to just screw each other's brains out just became so unbearable. When they reached the front door of his house, AJ impatiently turned the door handle and pushed the door open the instant Punk had unlocked the door.

"Someone's a little impatient," Punk chuckled as he closed the door behind him and turned on the lights while AJ took her sneakers off.

"You took too long," AJ said before pulling the plastic bag carrying their leftover pizza off his wrist vigorously and shuffling her feet towards the fridge with it. Punk, meanwhile, tossed the ball he had caught earlier to the sofa closest to the windows before moving over to where she was.

"You really wanna prove me wrong, don't you?" he laughed as AJ closed the fridge door after filling it with their food. She gave no reply other than pushing him up against the end of the kitchen counter and giving him a hard, intoxicating kiss. As their lips moved in perfect synchronisation against each other, his hands fell to her ass where every now and then, he would give it a firm squeeze. Each squeeze was met with an instinctive little moan from her. She just enjoyed having him touch her this way and wanted more, way more. It was as if Punk had read her mind as he quickly turned them around so that AJ's ass was up against the edge of the counter. His hands tantalisingly descended to her thighs as she wrapped her arms around his neck. He broke the connection between their lips momentarily before lifting her up so that she was sitting on the counter with her legs dangling over the edge. Punk swiftly returned to her lips as she circled his neck once again and opened up her legs so that he could settle between them. Their lips parted as their mouths welcomed each other's tongue contentedly. As their tongues danced to the beat of their ever-increasing heartbeats, Punk's hands zeroed in on the zipper of AJ's hoodie.

"You… Really… Wanna… Do it… Here…?" Punk asked her in between their wet kisses.

"Mhmm, less talking, more stripping," she mumbled against his lips before Punk responded by smiling against hers. He zipped open her black jacket and took it off of her body vigorously. After throwing the jacket onto the ground, he reached for the hem of her white cotton shirt. Surprisingly to Punk, she slapped his hands away and pulled away from him.

"Wha-"

"I'm taking things over from here," she adamantly declared before taking her top off and throwing it behind her, in turn showing off a plain white bra. She then pulled his shirt off quickly and discarded it behind her as well. She buried her head into the side of his neck, placing wet kisses on it. Punk closed his eyes in pleasure while AJ's hands moved slowly down his body, caressing his bare skin. When her hands eventually reached the waistline of his jeans, she used one of her hands to feel his member through the relatively thick fabric. She rubbed her hand up and down his groin continuously, moving unhurriedly from the top of his waistline to the split of his pants.

"April," he groaned loudly as the bulge in his jeans grew bigger and bigger, "Just take it off."

She responded by moving her head up to his ear, kissing his neck along the way.

"Your wish is my command, Punkybear," she whispered seductively, quickly unbuttoning his jeans. She then pulled his zipper down and bent her legs, hooking her big toes through the belt loops of his jeans before pulling it down with just her legs.

"God, that's sooooo hot... I love how flexible you are," he said breathlessly after getting out of his jeans completely.

"And I love how hot you look like without any clothes on," she giggled, eyeing his body up and down as he took off his sneakers. When he was done, he just stared at her shirtless upper body.

"Well, what are you waiting for? Come and get your prize," she giggled as Punk snapped out of his staring.

"I just… I just still can't believe I have you," he said, reverting his gaze back to her chocolate eyes, "I don't know what I did to deserve you."

"You were just yourself," she pulled him towards her, "And that's all you'll ever need to do to be with me."

"I promise, I'm gonna make it worth your while," he said as he caressed her cheek with the back of his hand.

"I'm sure you will," she smiled lovingly towards him before giving him a peck on the lips, "And I'm sure you will right now."

Punk smirked, knowing what she meant before pulling her face towards his. Their lips met once more as the palm of his hand covered her cheek, his thumb rubbing it on occasions. His other hand, in the meantime, moved to the button of her jeans. Making short work of it, he pulled the zipper down and broke the kiss reluctantly. He tugged on her jeans with his hands as she pushed herself up off the counter slightly so he could pull it down all the way. They resumed their open mouth kissing, their hands roaming and venturing both of their bare bodies at the same time. After a while, Punk's hands started to settle at her red panties but instead of tugging it off of her, he pushed it to one side and inserted a finger into her already wet center. AJ immediately jerked away from his lips, rolling her head back and keeping her eyes shut in utter pleasure as a loud gasp escaped her lips.

"Oh…" she moaned loudly repeatedly as she felt him exploring her insides.

"Say my name, April," his tone fell to a whisper as he continued to finger her.

"Phil…" she moaned softly as Punk kept his gaze fully on AJ's face, noticing her slowly scrunching up her face.

"Louder."

"Phil…" she moaned louder as she felt her orgasm coming closer.

"Louder April, scream for me," he said firmly as he inserted another finger into her.

"Phil!" she shouted loudly in surprise while Punk grinned in happiness, "Oh god Phil, your touch is so… Oh! Go-o-o-d-d."

AJ was starting to lose control, her voice breaking up after he thrust deep into her.

"That's it April, just let it all go," he whispered once more as she fell back on the counter, unable to handle it anymore. Her eyes remained shut while her fingers gripped onto the edges of the counter, feeling her climax coming very close. The very same eyes shot open when his fingers all of a sudden exited her. Tilting her head up slightly, she lost sight of Punk's body.

"What the fuck?! He left me high and dr-" her thoughts stopped immediately when she felt something else enter her core, something moist.

"Oh fuck!" AJ shouted as she arched her back against the top of the counter, her eyes closing once more. Punk just continued to eat her alive, thrusting into her with his tongue while kneeling on the floor.

"Phi-i-i-l-l…" she moaned uncontrollably. Knowing she was really close, Punk thrust one last time deep into her center, earning the loudest reaction from AJ so far.

"Phil!" she screamed, expelling her cum into his mouth and some onto the counter. Punk simply lapped up all of her juices, swallowing it all and enjoying every drip of it. He stood up from his kneeling position as AJ finally had her eyes open for longer than three seconds. She rested on the table, trying to compose herself a little as Punk just admired the beauty sprawled out in front of him.

"You definitely… Kept your promise... Alright," she said in between her heavy breathing before she quickly pushed herself up, only to be presented with a held out finger from Punk. Examining the finger a little more closely, she realised what he wanted her to do. She slowly and teasingly covered his cum covered finger with her mouth before closing in on it. She then moved just as slowly out, keeping her mouth closed around his finger before pulling away entirely and tasting her own juices. Punk instantly got hard, his member visibly protruding out from under his boxers.

"Fuck, that was so hot! I could just cum any moment," Punk thought as AJ quickly realised the bulge in his shorts, biting her bottom lip and staring at it growing bigger by the second.

"April, let's not waste any more time. I need you. Please," Punk literally begged as AJ smiled and nodded at him, knowing he could not stifle his urge any longer. He lifted her up off the counter and rested her on the floor. He tugged on her stained panties, pulling it down quickly and tossing it to the side. He was just about to reach behind her for the clasp of her bra before she flipped them over, surprising Punk in turn.

"What the-"

"I told you I was going to be the dominant one," she giggled as she held his arms down by the wrists with her hands. Punk simply let out a laugh before she descended down his body until she arrived at his boxers. She pulled them down slowly until his member popped out, as hard and as upright as ever. She licked her lips and pulled the boxers off completely in a haste. She settled herself between his spread out legs before taking off her bra on her own. The instant the fabric was off of her, she saw his length straightened even more. She crawled slowly up his body, licking the tip of his head along the way which resulted in a loud groan coming from Punk. She straddled his stomach before leaning down slightly to face him.

"You taste quite nice Phil, are you sure you don't want me to pleasure you?" she asked teasingly as she reached back and lightly ran her fingers up and down along his length.

"No April," he closed his eyes for a moment before opening them up again, "I'm desperate for you. Please don't tease me."

"Ok baby," she leaned down to give him a brief kiss, "Where's the condom?"

"In the front pocket of my jeans," he answered.

"Ok, gimme a sec."

AJ looked around the room for his jeans before noticing them behind her. She quickly crawled towards it, unknowingly giving Punk a great view of her bare rear end moving up and down.

"I told you not to tease me!" Punk said loudly as his member continued growing.

"Huh?" AJ asked in bewilderment as she turned back to face him with her hands holding onto his jeans.

"Your ass, my face right here," Punk said as he pointed back and forth between where his face was and where her butt was previously.

"Oh, sorry baby," she apologised as she retrieved a packet of condom from his jeans' pocket, "I didn't mean to, honest."

"It's ok, just come here quickly please," she happily agreed and crawled back towards him in a hurry. She kneeled in between his legs as she opened the packet. She then leaned down to give the tip of his length a quick swirl of the tongue, making sure to get all of the juices that were oozing out.

"April!" he shouted as AJ just giggled in response. He just tasted so good. She could not help it. She would just have to wait next time to get all of it. As she lapped up some of the sweet pre-cum that rolled onto her tongue, she rolled the condom onto his length. Not wanting to agitate him any further, she lifted her hips up and cautiously slid down on his length.

"Oh!" both of them gasped as he fully entered her. She started to rock her hips back and forth as Punk supported her hips with his hands. The room was filled with their constant moans of approval while AJ continued to rock her hips like a bullrider.

"April…" he moaned as he thoroughly enjoyed the sight of his bare naked girlfriend riding him. AJ knew he was further along into his orgasm compared to her. She needed to catch up to him so she decided to lift up her hips and crash back down onto his hips repeatedly instead.

"Oh god!" she screamed, rolling her head back as she carried on in this new rhythm. Punk knew she was trying to catch up to him so he helped her along by meeting her movement. Whenever she would move down on his length, he would lift his hips up. This caused AJ to instantly feel her climax coming.

"Phil!" she moaned loudly.

"God… More… More…" she sighed as Punk carried on meeting her thrusts. After a couple more thrusts, Punk started to feel his orgasm approaching.

"I'm close, April…" he moaned.

"Me… Too… Phil…" AJ replied in between thrusts as she could feel her walls starting to close. She leaned her body down while still continuing the movement of her hips to kiss him on the lips softly. It was as if that was the trigger as Punk jerked away from her and reached his climax.

"April!" he moaned loudly as he hugged her body tight. The warm sensation that filled her core in turn also pushed her over the cliff as her walls tightened on his cock.

"Phil," AJ screamed loud, so loud she was sure the neighbours heard it but she did not give a damn. She had just engaged in an intimate session with her boyfriend and she loved every second of it. As she felt the waves of her orgasm passing over her, she just rested herself on top of Punk, trying to regain herself. Eventually, she rolled off of Punk and merely lay down beside him, their sweaty bodies staining the floor and their sighs filling the room.

"Phil," she broke the relative silence.

"Yeah?" he turned his head to face his girlfriend.

"This was the best first date ever. Thank you, baby," she smiled at him with nothing but love in her eyes.

"No problem, sweetheart. I'm just glad I managed to make you happy. I was kinda worried that you'd think baseball and pizza was too simple for a date," he revealed as AJ shook her head.

"Not at all, Phil. I'm a simple girl after all. Like I said before, just be you because I like you for you," Punk simply responded with a smile in pure happiness before moving in for a soft kiss with AJ. After they parted, he placed his arm around AJ while she lay her head on his outstretched arm and rested her hand on his chest.

"Umm, Phil?"

"Yeah, beautiful?" he replied as AJ's cheeks flushed light pink.

"Are we gonna be sleeping here?" she asked while tracing his chest tattoos.

"If you want to, I can sleep anywhere as long as you're with me," he smiled at her again. Ever since he was with AJ, he had been doing that a lot as of late.

"Me too," she kissed him on the cheek, "Goodnight baby."

"Goodnight sweetheart," he pulled her even closer to him as both of them closed their eyes, loving the only warmth that was available: each other.
