The door slowly creaked shut behind Gemma as she carried the small package, which had been abandoned outside her door, over to her bed. She noticed that it was a small box, perfectly wrapped in shiny blue paper and tied with a small matching ribbon at the top.

Upon closer inspection, the diva had realised that the small card hanging from the gift had her name on.

Sitting on the edge of her bed, and placing the gift on her lap, Gemma examined the card more closely. Inside it said:

To Gemma

Sorry that you are leaving, and don't want to see you go

Hope to see you soon

I love you!!

From ?????

How interesting, Gemma thought. She had never had this kind of secret admirer before, and it made her feel kind of warm inside. Someone obviously thought that she was special enough to deserve such a well presented gift. This was what made the red head feel special, like she hadn't done for a long time.

Quickly scanning the card again, she gently placed it on the bed beside her and started to finger the lid of the box, which could be easily taken off without disturbing the neatly folded wrapping paper.

Gemma was a little cautious about opening it. Although her curiosity was slowly getting the better of her, she still didn't know if it was a practical joke off the other divas.

O what the hell, she thought; I can't take this any longer. I have to see what it is.

The red head quickly, but carefully, pulled the lid off the box and took a closer look at what was inside. The box was filled with reams and reams of tissue paper, and on top of it all was an envelope with her name on it.

Butterflies fluttered around Gemmas stomach as she couldn't hold her excitement any long at the prospect of what the envelope might have inside.

Feeling the present, she could tell that it contained one or two pieces of folded paper. Someone must have written me a letter, she thought. How very romantic, and a smile crept across her face for the first time in the last few hours.

Opening it, and pulling out the contents, Gemma saw that it was indeed a letter, and it was hand written. She quickly unfolded it, and read it out loud to herself.

Dear Gemma,

I know you may think that this has been a bit of a stupid idea on my part, but I don't care. I can never get you alone long enough for us to have a serious conversation, but there is only one thing that I really need to tell you.

I love you!!

I really do Gem. Always have, since the first day you walked threw the door. You look like a princess, and grow more beautiful everyday.

I can't believe that you want to leave. It's tearing me apart knowing that I won't get to see you everyday, because I just don't know if I can live without you.

I understand if you don't feel the same way, but I know somewhere deep down inside that you do, and you know you can't cover it up.

So come on Red. Come into my arms and I will keep you safe. No need to be afraid anymore and run away, because I know that's what you are doing.

Never forget that I am in love with you!!

XXXXX

Gemmas jaw dropped open. She didn't instantly recognise the hand writing, but it had obviously come from someone very close to her. Besides, only a hand full of people ever called her 'Red' as a nickname.

Brushing her fringe out of her face, the diva glanced back down at the letter still clutched tightly in her right hand. Her heart was warmed deep inside. Then she noticed an extra piece to the note.

P.S. Pull back the tissue paper to see your real gift. Enjoy it Red, you deserve it. You're an amazing woman.

Gemmas stomach was once again doing somersaults at the nice things that her secret admirer had written about her.

She placed the letter down next to the card and fixed her attention back onto the box. Pulling back some of the tissue paper that was inside, she saw what her real gift was.

Her heart was beating at an unnaturally high rate as she pulled out the present and held it up in front of her face for a closer look.

Gemmas mouth was gaping open as she examined the solid gold locket that was hanging from her finger. It looked extremely expensive.

Who would do such a thing for me, she thought. It seemed impossible that someone would spend this much money on a simple leaving gift.

However, it seemed that the locket not only had physically value, but sentimental value as well.

The red head hoped that by opening it, she could find some sort of clue as to who had given her the gift.

A huge smile crept across the divas face again as she saw that inside was a picture of her, on her first day at the WWE. She was embarrassed by the picture as it had been taken more than 4 years earlier, but it still made her laugh a little. She hadn't really changed much.

Suddenly her eyes flicked to the photograph on the other side of the locket. This was a much more recent photograph of her birthday party, less than three months before.

Gemmas mouth feel open as she peered down at the picture. She just couldn't believe he would do a thing like this. She knew that she had to speak to him.

The red head stood up sharply, sending the empty box flying onto the floor, and quickly made her way to the door. She didn't care that it was nearly two in the morning, or that she was in her pyjamas. She just had to ask him about this, and what it was supposed to mean.

Grabbing her key card off the side table, Gemma made a run for it down the hall to the room she knew her friend was staying in. Many thoughts ran threw her head as she stopped outside the correct door.

The red head didn't knock straight away. Still not knowing if it was a good idea to be doing this at such a late hour, she looked down at the locket that was still dangling in her hand. Lifting it up closer to her face, she once again smiled at the old photograph of herself, and also at the picture of her and David opposite it.
