chapter 21

MARK

"Vince! Anybody! Would anybody care to explain what the hell that was about? Why didn't anybody tell me that she was going to come out and do that?" I yelled throwing some things on the ground. I just finished my match with John Cena.

"Mark, we didn't know until after you went out. I just got news and was going to look for you. We didn't know last minute Mark. We did not know."

"Whoever made this last minute, will pay. How in the hell are you going to send her out there and try to seduce me? Goddamn it Vince! Aurora was out there! She had to watch the whole damn thing!"

"Mark, relax!" said Glen.

"Not until someone gives me a damn good explanation. My woman's out there and she has to watch another female do what Victoria did out there to me. You didn't see the look in her eye. The anger of watching another woman do what she did. I love Aurora. Somebody better get to fixing this before I will. It won't be pretty if I do."

I walked off pissed at whoever did this. After the show, I went looking for Aurora. I had to talk to her.

"Aurora. Baby. Did you know about this?"

"No. I didn't even know she was going to be here tonight. Must've been last minute."

"You don't sound upset."

"Trust me. I am. You think I like to watch another woman out there act towards you the way she did? I don't think so. Somebody better fix this, Mark. And I mean that. I don't care what anyone has to do. I'm not going to have this."

THE NEXT DAY

"Mark, we need to tell you something." said Glen. He was with Eve, Beth, Natalya, Linda, and Vince. I had Aurora in my arms. We were in the airport for a flight to Texas for our next event.

"What is it?"

"Well, about the storyline last night with Victoria. The truth is, it was last minute. So no one knew. But it was Paul's idea. He's behind this."

"What?" yelled Aurora. "Why would he do that?"

"Who knows sweethart." said Linda. "We don't know. Maybe something new that he wanted. Who knows. But he probably still thinks that you two are no longer together. So he won't think that there's a problem with that storyline."

"But we are together, Grandma. I don't want this storyline. I don't like it."

"I know. We don't either. But we're going to try to talk to him to get him to change his mind about this. Mark, how you feeling?"

I took a minute to answer carefully so I wouldn't lose my temper. Especially around Aurora. "I'm pissed off. What was I supposed to think? What was I supposed to do? How else would I react knowing that my woman is sitting out there having to watch one of these Divas coming out and doing what she did? I would be just as pissed off or even worse if one of these wrestlers do to her what Victoria came out and did. No matter what the reason. Would you be happy with that if you were in the situation?"

Vince sighed. "Mark, I understand your anger. Now, Paul has the storyline already set up for the next couple of weeks. Eventually it will le ad to a feud between you and John Cena with you eventually getting a title shot for the WWE Championship. Unfortuantly, Paul himself will not be in attendance."

"What am I supposed to do Vince?" I asked letting go of Aurora. "This is my career. But she's my life. What, is he going to make me choose between the two? I lost her once. I won't lose her again. I'll be damned if I do."

"We'll try to talk to him. See if he can come up with another storyline or make this one different from what he planned. We can't promise that it will work. But we'll try."
