He locked eyes w/me and said, "Steph, you and I, we're almost the same! I talked to Hunter last night and even he thought so, in fact he said something along the lines of, "Hey Eric, since you and Steph have so much in common, like how you both are manipulative bitches then maybe you should just marry her and see what living in hell is like" And I said Hunter, Stephanie and I aren't alike at all, and I hung up, but Steph, the more I think about it, the more I know he's right. (I glared at him) Not that manipulative bitches part, but the part about you and I being so much alike. We do have a lot in common, I mean, we both own a company, we both are trying to steal each other's superstars and (I looked off to the side) we both secretly like each other" he smiled widely. I turned to him and stood up, I paid for my drink and began to walk away, he caught up w/me and grabbed me by the arm, "Don't deny it Steph, there is definitely something between us, w/out the competition and all, we would be an unstoppable force" he said having a good grip on my arm.
I pulled my arm away from him as he got closer to me, "Eric, the only chance you ever had w/me is when I'm unconscious." I glared, he smiled at me and he followed me up to my room, "Steph, you can't walk away from this, I could just show up anytime and steal one of your superstars again, and you could possibly end up w/nothing, but if we team up, then things could change.." I pulled out the key to my hotel room and opened the door, I walked in and shut the door on his face, but before I could lock it he let himself in, "Steph, you can't ignore this. And you can't ignore me, I'm everywhere baby, on your show, in your hotel, we might as well get this over with" he smiled as he kicked the door shut behind him and pulled me closer to him, "What's wrong Steph? are you afraid? well, to tell you the truth, so am I" he said before he kissed me, forcing me over to the bed, I don't know how this could've happened because, I'm a McMahon damnit! And I never give in.
*---------------------------* the next day *------------------------------*
I woke up with the sun shining brightly on my face, I had completely forgot what had happened last night, so I rolled over and when I opened my eyes I saw Eric laying right next to me, I freaked out and got out of bed, put my clothes on, and I kept thinking to myself, 'how much exactly did I have to drink last night?' I packed up my stuff then left, leaving Eric behind.
I ran into Stacy who was staying right next door to me, "hey Steph, I heard a bunch of noises last night, are you ok?" she asked. "Why do you care?" I sneered, "oh, your still mad about last night? Well, the only reason I did that Steph is because, well, ever since you became "all business" then you acted so... so.. prude!" Then Eric walked out of my locker room rubbing his eyes as though he's been up all night. We both turned and then I pretended like I didn't know what he was doing in there. Stacy turned to me with a smile, "Well, I guess I was wrong, go Steph! I knew you would take one for the team!" she whispered then left. I picked up my duffle bag and began to walk away. Eric caught up with me and took me by the arm, "Hey Steph" he smiled then put his arm around me, I removed it then continued walking, "What's up Steph, you seem very eager to ditch me" he laughed nervously. "Eric, we're not friends, we never will be" I sneered at him, "what happened last night, I don't quite remember all of it, but from what I do remember, I wish I'd never done" He just smiled, "Well Steph, I don't regret one solitary minute baby" he smiled. "Eric, I don't want to see you anymore, get it through your thick skull! I'm suppose to be a business woman, and if we had anything then it would ruin our rep and it would ruin smackdown and raw" I explained, "Well Steph, I don't mind having a little 'alliance' of my own w/you. It doesn't bother me, and when you say that you're all business, well, last night, you really proved that!" he laughed. "Eric, I don't want anything to do with you" I said as I walked away, again, he grabbed me by the arm more aggressive this time, "Steph, don't even think about walking away from me." "Watch me" I said as I pulled away from him, "Steph! I'm in love w/you!" he said with a straight face when he yelled it out to me. I stopped and turned around slowly, as I walked back to him slowly he had a smile across his face. "I don't believe you" I said with a disgusted tone. He pulled me into his grasp, "Steph, believe it sweetheart, because it's true. If it wasn't I would've demolished you and your career a long time ago." "What about Vince?" I said. "He knows, I told him" he sighed. "how will everyone else take it?" I asked, he smiled, "They'll deal with it" I smiled, "Alright" was all I could say, this was the least expected thing to happen, and this upcoming raw, Eric and I would come out together and see what kind of reaction we'll get from the fans and the superstars. He put his arm around me as we left the hotel and went to Greenwich, Connecticut to tell the family about the unfortunate news. The WWE will never... EVER be the same... again.
