Mark woke before Laura the next morning and watched her sleeping for a while. She looked beautiful when she slept even though her hair was still a mess from last night. He smiled at the memory of it all and couldn't help but run his fingers down her cheek softly. Laura moved in her sleep from his touch but smiled and settled back down. Mark grinned at her but then sighed and slowly got out of bed. He stretched and then searched around for his clothes to head back to his room.

Glen had nagged him into going to a gym session with him and he would be dead if he showed up late. So he got dressed quickly and looked around the room for a piece of paper to write a message for Laura to tell her where he'd gone and that he hadn't ditched her. Once he'd done that he headed out of the room to go back to his room to get ready for the gym.


Laura stirred at the sound of her phone ringing and rolled over to answer it. "Hello?" she said sleepily "This is your wake up call Miss"

"Okay thank you" she said and put the phone back down. She looked at the time and it read 10:00am. "Jeez I slept in that long?" she said to herself as she kicked off the covers "And why am I naked?" she looked down and noticed she was completely naked, but then it came flooding back to her and she smiled. She had made love with Mark and couldn't help feeling happy and smiling to herself. But she looked around the room and saw no sign of him.

"Wonder where he's got to?" she said getting out of bed to go and fetch some clothes. She smiled when she saw her vest top on the floor that was ripped by Mark through his aggressive passion. Butterflies spread through her tummy when she remembered how passionate he had been last night and she couldn't wait to get her hands on him again soon. As she raced around her room getting the clothes she wanted to wear she noticed a piece of paper stuck to the mirror. Glancing at it for a while she soon noticed it was from Mark:

Morning my beautiful baby girl,

I'm so sorry I couldn't be there to watch you wake up and open your beautiful eyes.

Glen nagged me into a gym session and would kill me if i showed up late.

Last night was mind blowing and I can't wait to see you soon at the arena to kiss those amazing lips again.

I Love You :)

I'll see you soon baby

Mark xx

"Aww he's so adorable" she said setting the note down on the table and going into the bathroom to quickly shower. Her hair looked awful and she did not want to be seen on the streets looking like a mess. So she jumped in the shower and scrubbed herself down and washed her hair. Then she dried herself off and threw on her underwear and clothes.

After much debating she eventually decided on her baggy jeans and her navy blue shirt with pink fishnets down the one arm. She dried her hair and it fell naturally thick and wavy and she smiled. A lot of people told her she was lucky to have such beautiful natural hair and she always agreed with them. She had always been proud of her hair but had never taunted anybody about it or made anyone jealous. Laura always told every fan she met that she was the same as them, a real person with a job.

When she brushed her hair, she quickly put her make-up on and got her bag ready for the arena. She threw everything together but stopped when her phone rang.

"Hello?" she said sounding a little breathless and cursed quietly. She had been rushing around her room all morning trying to find the things she needed and answering the phone sounding breathless would make people wonder what she was doing.

"Hey Lau" Amy said cheerfully and Laura smiled "Hey Amy how are things?"

"Good. Yourself? Not interrupting anything am I?" she said laughing when she heard Laura sounded out of breath "No I was just running a marathon around my room getting the clothes I wanted"

"Uh-huh yeah sure I believe you" she laughed again and Laura couldn't help but laugh with her. "So how did things go last night?"

"How'd you mean?"

"I saw Mark this morning, and the grin plastered on his face was too much of a give away," Laura laughed and Amy knew she was hiding something.

"Oh my god you did it didn't you?!" Laura just laughed again and heard Amy clap her hands in excitement "Oh man details Dammit! How was it? He good?"

"Yeah he was good"

"Only good?"

"Well would you think I'm crazy if I said it was the best sex ever?"

"No cus I already think you're crazy"

"Then yeah he's the best sex ever!" they both laughed and Amy said, "It's like high school all over again!"

"I know right?" Laura said in dorky teenage voice and Amy laughed again but said, "Hurry up and get ready babe and we can meet in the lobby to go and get summat to eat"

"Okay then, I'm eating too much lately and not getting to the gym enough. And with this diva shoot tomorrow I'll look really fat"

"How in the world are you fat? If you look at the photos on the WWE website it looks like you've lost too much weight due to all of the worry and stress these past few weeks"

"Really? When did they update the website?"

"I'm not sure, I just logged in today to check my blog page and saw all the new photos. There's one of you and Mark that's just incredible"

"Which one?"

"When A-train dropped you and you got knocked out, the cameraman captured a perfect photo of Mark looking really concerned. Then there's one of him on his knees looking at you and you're looking back. It's really sweet, even though everybody can tell you're dazed with that distant look in your eyes" Laura laughed and said "I'll have to look at them soon"

"They're amazing, you've got no need to worry about Sunday, it'll be so much fun. I've heard rumours about some of the activities we'll be doing"

"What sorta things?" Laura said getting excited and Amy laughed "Well they said that we might be allowed to use some ATVs on the beach and there's a gymnastics area and loads of outdoor activities"

"Oh wow I'm so there!"

"They also said that they might be filming us for a DVD but who knows"

"I'm sure they will, we haven't had a proper photo shoot for ages"

"I'm not particularly looking forward to the whole diva line up though"

"Why who's coming?"

"Well there's me, you, Trish, Victoria, Ashley, Ivory, Christy"

"That's not bad"

"I'm not finished, Michelle McWhore, Jillian, Gail, Molly, and every other whore from Smackdown"

"Oh goody" Laura said frowning.

Both Amy and Laura had been having plenty of trouble over the years from some of the newer divas. They came into the business with big heads and egos and always treated everybody else like dirt. But on more than one occasion both Amy and Laura had popped the bubble some of the divas were living in and deflated their heads, making them crash back down hard to reality. They had real personal issues with them both but Amy always told Laura it was pure jealousy. Both women had proved tough and been through hell and back to be at the top of the ladder in the women's division and had earned the right to be respected by a lot of people. But the others didn't like it so they tried to prove themselves only to find that they had achieved the ability to embarrass themselves as well as the company. And now that Laura was in a storyline with Mark, she only hoped nothing would happen to her again.

"Don't worry Lau, we'll just split off from everybody else and whoever wants to join us are more than welcome too. Just focus on what bathing suits you're gonna wear and what pictures you'd want and they wont bother you"

"Mmm lets hope so"

"Anyway enough chitchat, meet me in the lobby in 5 mins and we can head out"

"Okay I'll see you in a few"

"Later" they hung up and Laura smiled at herself. Her and Amy were spending some time together before heading to the arena for a practice match. The ring had been left set up for practice as no other bookings were put down for the arena they were using. So many other superstars would be there; it was just a question of who would get to use the ring first. They had never argued about it, as there was too much love and respect between everybody in the dressing rooms from both brands. That's what Laura also loved about the WWE; there was no hatred between anybody.

Get your head out of the clouds missy otherwise you'll be in big trouble. Remember your motto: Keep your feet on the ground and move onwards and upwards.

Laura smiled at that thought and headed out the door once she'd grabbed her keys and bag. She would be meeting Mark soon to discuss the match, but now she was meeting her best friend to spend some girly time together before their hectic schedule began again.


"Remember what I told you" A-train said as he watched the woman pace back and forth for the hundredth time "Laura and Mark are arriving soon to practise the match with Test and Trish. Come to ringside and pretend to read a book or something, whilst listening in casually to get the gist of the match for Monday"

"But I'll be too tempted to kick her ass if I come down there" Michelle snapped back and then sat on the couch in the dressing room.

"What's the deal with this anyway? Why did you get involved in this storyline?" A-train asked casually wondering what the deal was with her hatred of this storyline. Michelle stared at him with an evil grin on her face and said "Its not the storyline I'm worrying about, it's getting into Laura's head and doing everything in my power to get her away from Mark"

"Why?"

"Because Mark should be with me!" she almost screamed at him, A-train leaned back a bit in surprise and said, "So you're mixing personal issues with work?"

"Yes"

"And both Laura and Mark aren't aware of this?"

"No they're not"

"So what are you gonna do?"

"I'm gonna play a little game of stalk Laura and show the fans her personal life, let them see the things she does with Mark so they'll be exposed and this storyline will be broken and shattered into pieces. Then when Mark cracks under the pressure of the fans and all their questions and comments, he'll dump Laura and then can come crawling to me" A-train looked at her like she was crazy for a minute but then said "Let me get this straight, you're going to stalk Laura and show her personal life on national TV?"

"Yeah, whenever she's in a match it'll come onto the screen and then the fans will start to boo and hate her"

"You do realise that Vince will find out and fire you"

"Oh don't worry Vince is as sweet as a nut about it" she leaned back in her chair and crossed her legs smirking. A-train again stared at her in disbelief and said, "What did you say to him?"

"Well let's just say we played a little game and discussed a few things, I can be VERY persuasive" A-train decided not to bring that up and just swallowed, trying to rid himself of the sick feeling he got when she had said that. He dreaded thinking what she must have done to get him to agree with this storyline, especially with how proud she looked about it.

But he then spoke up "I hope you realise that both Mark and Laura will want to beat the crap out of you when you do this, and I don't just mean in the ring"

"Let them try but I've got Vince's protection" A-train just shook his head and said "Girl you've certainly got the green eyed monster inside of you"

"What you saying!" she suddenly stood up "Calling me jealous are you!"

"Well, yeah duh. Its not hard to see it Michelle, you're adamant that Mark and Laura shouldn't be together and you hate everything about Laura when you don't even know her"

"That's because she's got everything I want! The fame, the friends and worst of all she's got Mark!"

"Look I hate what you're doing or are going to start doing. But I've got no choice but to go along with it" he hated saying it because it was true, Michelle had got a hold over him because she had found out about him cheating on his fiancée. So to make him go along with her plans she had basically threatened and black mailed him into it.

"But I've got no sympathy for you what so ever, when Mark and Laura get there hands on you" with that said he got up from the chair and went out the room. Michelle just smiled and folded her arms, she had both A-train and Test wrapped around her finger. A-train had to be otherwise his little girlfriend would be finding out a very big secret that would destroy the relationship that they had both loved and cherished for years. Test on the other hand was all for it, he was hell bent on getting together with Laura and he didn't care if he had to destroy Mark in the process to get to her.

They were both going to get what they wanted, no matter how many obstacles came their way.
