(Oh and just so you all know, Ryback is the bad guy in this.. Dean is also the bad guy, but this is more or less about two people coming together and having an unconventional (sexy,evil,etc) relationship. When Maya and Dean get together, Dean won't change, but Maya will. The way I have it mapped out in my head, it won't be one of those fluffy little romances. Sorry if this pisses anyone off, but I do love my evil/nasty sexy bad boy Dean.

I'd like to thank everyone who has reviewed this so far! I'm so glad you guys are reading it! LOVE YOU ALL I MEAN IT!

""He thought I forgave him.. Wrong! I'm gonna pay him back like the bitch he is!""- found on tumblr

Eve looked around the backstage area, wanting to find Ryback, tip him off to what was going on behind his back. But when she found him with Aksana, she raised a brow, and turned on her heel, quietly walking out of the room... She'd just seen Maya coming out of a room with Dean Ambrose though and both of them looked, well..

Flushed, for lack of a better term. And she'd decided then that Ryback needed to know that his precious little Maya was a little whore.

And she was sleeping with the enemy.

But from the looks of it, Ryback had other things on his mind than what Maya was off doing, and worst of all, who with. His worst enemy, currently.

Of course, she only wanted to warn him, because of course, he was about to become a champion, and she did love her gold. And the two of them together?

Amazing.

She turned the corner, and smacked into Maya, who was in her own little world, having just left Dean, reluctantly, after making him swear he'd watch Ryback's match in an hour or so. Her stomach churned nervously, yet excitedly.. She was so close to getting away from Ryback that she could practically taste freedom.

She was so close to being where she belonged, and had stupidly walked away from again that she was practically flying. So, when she bumped into Eve, she smirked, smugly, and Eve glared at her then said stiffly, "I'm going to tell Ryback exactly what you've been doing behind his back. Someone should. Slut."

Maya didn't think, she just punched. As Eve held her nose, and glared at her, Maya laughed and then leaned in she smirked as she taunted, "Go right ahead. But by the time he gets done with his girl on the side, it'll be too damn late. Face it, Eve. One way or another, you fail."

Eve glared and Maya laughed, shrugging as she walked away, flipping her hair as she did so. There was only one thing she cared about doing right now, and that was setting up, so everything was in perfect alignment for what she was about to do.

Because something going wrong was not in her plans. Not even the slightest.

Dean only suspected what she was up to, and he didn't even have it all the way right. But soon, everything would be right in her life again and the excitement and anticipation was nearly driving her insane.

Looking at the clock on the wall in catering, she bit her lip, reminded herself that yes, she was strong, she could do this. She had to do this.

She needed and wanted Dean.. Not Ryback. Not Ryback's abuse and cheating, belittling her in public.

Tonight, he was going to pay for it all.

Down the hallway, Dean paced himself, but for very different reasons. He had mixed feelings about whatever the hell it was that Maya was doing, that she was insistent on NOT telling him about. On the one hand, he felt like he shouldn't really give two shits, but on the other hand... he did, and he deep down, on some level didn't want her doing something crazy, getting in over her head.

He turned to the two men in the room with him, Roman and Seth as he said stiffly, "No matter what.. Get her out of the fucking way when we do what we're going to do. I do not give a damn what she tells you.. Fucking move her by force if you have to."

He went back to pacing, muttering to himself, and didn't answer when Seth asked, "Why's she so fucking important, Ambrose?"

Instead, he leaned in and said calmly, "Just fucking do what I tell you. Clear?"

Roman studied his stable partner carefully. Dean seemed more wound up than the norm tonight, almost as if something were going down that noone knew about but him.

And, of course, this new obsession of his, Maya.

This worried Roman a bit, because he wasn't sure how much that Maya could be trusted, if she could even be trusted at all.

Maya walked back into the dressing room, as the three men of the Shield were down the hall, deep in discussion. When she walked in, she found Eve pouring out her heart to Ryback, and her stomach sank.. Eve even had pictures to prove her 'story'.

Eve left, smug smirk in place, and Maya growled. But before she could react, Ryback grabbed a hand ful of her hair and slung her to the floor, then slapped her two times as hard as he could, and growled, "You fucking little slut.. After tonight, you will not be on nearly as long a leash as I've been stupid enough to let you on. You apparently can't be trusted."

Maya gulped and then took a deep breath. There was still a way out of this, she was not abandoning her carefully made plan just because Eve, the bitch, ratted her out to Ryback about Dean. She glared at him and then leaning in she said quietly, "If I were you, Ryan.. I'd stop counting my chickens before they hatch, as far as me sticking around go.. Anything can happen on any given sunday." before standing on shaky legs, and storming out of the dressing room.

She'd been found out, she may as well go to Dean, stop dancing around what she really wanted, who she really wanted to be with. She walked down the hallway to their room, and burst in, in the middle of an intense conversation, about her, apparently.

"Ambrose, if you know something, spit it out already." Roman demanded calmly as the door burst open and Maya ran in, a fresh red mark on her cheek, fuming, furious.

He watched them interacting. This was almost as close to normal as Dean had ever been. It was sort of odd, they had this connection and when he was with Maya, he became this while still psychotic, slightly more protective man.

Dean looked at Maya and then said calmly, "That's it.. Whatever you're doing, you're fucking not doing it. He's fucking on to you, Maya, or he wouldn't have hit you."

"Dean, I am doing this. I have to do this, for me.. For.." Maya blurted as she looked down at her hands, then fell silent. Dean leaned in and said "For what, princess.."

She looked up at him and said quietly, "For us, Dean. You do want me, totally to yourself, don't you?"

He blinked in shock as her words echoed around in his brain. Then he immediately said "Whatever this is, you have up your fucking sleeve, princess.. I'll fucking murder him if he even breathes on you, I swear to God. But you have to tell me what the fuck you're up to." as he trailed his thumb over her lip and looked down at her, keeping his face stern and angry, slightly cold, after all, he still did not trust her completely again. This could very well be the mother of all set ups.

By that point in their conversation, Seth and Roman edged out of the room, giving Ambrose some privacy, they knew he didn't do well with all this emotional bullshit and the tension, as usual, was so thick between Maya and Dean that they had to get out of the room.

"Okay, what if I told you, the belt's NOT going to be changing hands tonight? And that Ryback's going to see concrete proof that it's fucking over between us?" Maya asked, as she paced in front of Dean, who studied her intently.

" So, basically, you're going to fuck him out of his title shot, and then?" Dean asked, looking at her, putting his hands on her arms to make her stop pacing, then on her cheeks to make her look him in the eye.

"And then, while he's flat on his fucking back, I was going to do something else.. That part, I'm not telling you. Because that part was to prove something to you." Maya said as she held his gaze and took a few deep breaths, waiting on him to say or do anything.

It started to click in his mind, and he smirked, pulling her against him as he looked down at her, then chuckling said calmly, "I told you, I'd get you back, one way or another, Maya. I told you we were not fucking over, because I didn't say we were over. I also told you that you wouldn't be able to walk away from me. Didn't I?"

She sighed raggedly, resting her head against his black fitted t shirt and then mumbled, "I didn't leave because you scared me. Just so you know. I left because I scared me."

He raised a brow then asked, "Explain?"

Maya looked up at him and then said quietly, "I was afraid that I'd fuck it all up. I mean, we're hardly normal people, Dean."

He laughed a little and then shrugged as he looked at her and then asked, "Okay, so why'd he hit you, just now.. I mean, I thought this whole thing was to make him believe that you wouldn't ever betray him."

"Eve Torres. You know she hates me." Maya pouted as she held his gaze and then asked, "Now, I can still do what I planned, but... It won't have the same effect I was going for on either end. I was... I was kind of going to surprise you by turning to the so called 'dark side', live during the pay per view.. I figured you guys were going to attack someone tonight, and would have to be there.. So, I was gonna call you out after I'd screwed Ryback out of a win.."

Dean chuckled and then smirking, raked his hand through his hair, staring at her a moment.. This was a lot to take in, he was having trouble getting his head around it all, especially her reason for leaving..

He hadn't scared her... And to date, she'd been the only person he'd met that could sort of even halfway handle him at his worst.

Maya heard Ryback yelling for her down the hallway, and she rolled her eyes, shrugging, swearing under her breath. He had to ruin everything, every single time she got a small second alone with Dean. It was really beginning to piss her off.

"How much longer until that god damn match?" she asked as she stayed in Dean's arms, looked up at him.

"Not soon enough, princess.. Not soon enough.. But, you say you had this grand plan.. I have my own idea. I told you, princess.. We make a damn good team."

He explained what would have to happen, and how, and she smirked as she stood on tiptoe, kissing him. The door opened and Roman and Seth finally walked back in, looking from Dean to Maya, brows raised, but not asking any questions that might piss Dean off

Only another hour to go.. And Maya was just beyond ready to get this whole getting the fuck away from Ryback thing over with. She hated that thanks to Eve, (who would pay, and dearly,) she'd wound up telling Dean what she'd intended to do, where he was concerned, but...

His plan was oh so much better.

Dean leaned down and trailing his tongue slowly along her ear, he said quietly, " Nothing stupid. When I tell you to move, or something, do it. Understood?"

"I'm not made of glass, Dean."

"No, but I don't think prison will agree with me. And if he tries to touch you after everything's happened, I will kill him.. Or die trying." Dean said as he looked at her and smirked to himself.

Tonight had gotten so much better in the past few minutes.
