AN – Just to let you know I am going to be skipping through a 7 month period in the chapter…. This is just because I want to be able to keep the main characters in it while at the same time getting the wrestling part in it….
Ch. 36
Stephanie sighed as she sat in the seat of the private plane that was flying her and Paul to a secret location. She knew her brother and mother had found someplace to hide the two of them while they tried to find something to do to Vince to stop him. Stephanie placed her hand on her still flat stomach and bit her bottom lip nervously. She glanced over at Paul who was sound asleep in his seat. She tried to hide the concerned look on her face. Paul hadn't been sleeping well lately, he was always staying up at night and watching her, she knew that. He was so afraid that something was going to happen to her or the baby and that it made her smile to think of how much he cared for them. She turned and stared out the window, her hand still protectively over her stomach.
"Hey." Paul said sleepily, drawing her attention back to him.
"Hey." Stephanie responded. "With us gone what's going to happen to your big plan?"
"It's going to be going on while we are gone. After the baby is born, we will return and everything will be ready for your father's downfall." Paul answered with a sigh. "Stephanie we are only going to be gone until the baby comes, you know that right?"
"Yeah I know that. I guess I am just worried what's going to happen after the baby is here." Stephanie said.
"Let's not think about that now." Paul said with a smile.
The two of them arrived at the secret location and Stephanie's eyes widened. After they had landed at the airport a car had taken them to a house hidden deep within a coast line and surrounded by trees. When they walked into the house they noticed it was fully furnished and ready for them. They glanced at each other and then around the house fully taking in the home they were going to be living in for the next seven months.
"So I guess this is only home for the next seven months." Stephanie said with a sigh.
"Yup." Paul said nodding his head.
2 months later…
John and Jillian were gripping as they walked down the hallway. DX had returned from their injury leave and were just as unaware of who Paul had brought into the mix. They knew that it was a female and her boyfriend who was part of the group but neither one of them was allowed to tell anyone yet.
"Look Vince is out of control. Just because he can't find Stephanie doesn't mean he has to take it out on all of the other superstars." Jillian said with a sigh.
"Well you know how he is, if things aren't going his way then everyone else will pay." John said shrugging as they entered the DX locker room. "Hey guys."
"Hey." Everyone said back as they glanced up and saw the two of them enter.
She sat behind her desk as the new smackdown GM. She was aware that Sable was angry she wasn't given the position and she was secretly thrilled that it was working. She knew that in five more months Paul and Stephanie would return, with a baby, and they would officially take Vince down. She was already allowed to hear some vital information, information she was keeping track of. She had made a couple of secret moves that had hurt Vince business wise but he still had no clue it was her that was doing it. She sighed as she heard the door to her office open and she smiled when she saw who walked in.
"Hey babe." She said softly.
"Hey, enjoying your new position?" Her boyfriend asked with a smile.
"You know I am." She said with a sigh.
5 months later…. (7 months after Steph and Paul left.)
Stephanie smiled as she held her daughter. She looked up as she saw the awed look on her husbands face and she had to laugh.
"You know you are allowed to hold her." Stephanie joked as she stroked her daughter's cheek.
"I know." Paul said as they boarded the plane to head back. "I just hate that we are going to be putting her in so much danger."
"Well I am sure that the guys are really going to step up and protect her. She is always going to be with us so she should be a bit safer." Stephanie said as she placed Aurora in her car seat. She glanced over at Paul who was sitting across from them so Stephanie could sit next to the baby.
"Stephanie I want you to promise me that no matter what happens, you will choose her over me or anyone else." Paul said suddenly.
"What are you talking about?" Stephanie asked confused.
"Stephanie, I just want you to promise that no matter what happens Aurora will come first." Paul said crossing his arms as the plane took off and headed for Chicago where Smackdown was going to be filmed next.
"I don't like where this is going. All you need to know is that I will do what I feel is necessary." Stephanie said stubbornly.
"Fine but Aurora comes first." Paul said wanting to get the last word.
When Stephanie and Paul landed in Chicago they were met at the airport by John and Jillian. Stephanie smiled when she saw the two of them rushing towards them. She knew that Jillian wanted to see Aurora and that John wanted to talk to Paul about what had been happening with her father after they had left.
"Let me see that little girl." Jillian said as she walked over to Stephanie and stared at the little girl in her arms. "Oh my goodness she is a beautiful baby."
"Thank you." Stephanie said as she cuddled her newborn infant. "The doctor wasn't happy about us putting her on a plane on such a young age but we didn't have a choice unfortunately."
"Yeah well, let's go talk while those two talk about how Paul's plan is coming along."
"All right John now is the time when everything finally bites Vince McMahon in the…" Paul trailed off with a smirk on his face.
