Shattered Lives Rebuilt Dreams
As the limousine headed down the road to the arena, Stephanie McMahon Helmsley sat apart from everyone, lost in her thoughts. Aside from the four from the hotel room, Pat Patterson and Gerald Brisco, long time associates of her father, and Michael Cole, the normal ringside announcer for SMACKDOWN who had been sick (JR was filling in for him that evening), also sat in the limousine. They were all concerned about Stephanie's well - being.
"Okay thanks," said Gerry hanging up the cell.
"That was Slaughter, he said that the backstage area is completely cut off from the arena itself, so most of the officials don't know what's happening. He did say the backstage entrance suffered little damage so we can enter the usual way.
"That's good isn't it Steph?" Kurt asked. "Steph?"
But Stephanie wasn't listening. In her mind, she was in a hotel room one cold January night one year earlier. She was recalling the night she truly feel in love with her husband, Triple H, Hunter Hearst Helmsley.
January 26, 2000
It was January 26, 2000, a day that would live in Stephanie's memory forever. A huge blizzard had blanketed the town the WWF had wrestled in, forcing them to spend the night at the hotel they'd been staying in, instead of gearing up to go to the next town. Hunter and Steph returned to the suite they shared together.
"Look, why don't you take the bed, I'll sleep on the couch tonight," Triple H said, contenting the rotating arrangements they'd had since the'd began their 'Business marriage.'
"Okay," Steph said quietly. There had been an awkwardness between them for the last couple weeks. It was like they were circling each other, unsure of what the other was thinking and feeling. They'd been picking fights with each other and it made living arrangements uncomfortable.
Stephanie sighed. She didn't know when things had changed between them but they had. Slowly but surely Steph began developing feelings for her husband that went far beyond simple business. Although she was slow to realize it, she was falling head over heels with her husband.
Hunter looked at her. "What you thinking about Kurt again?" Hunter said lewdly, about her flirting with newcomer Kurt Angle.
Stephanie stood up quickly, "I can't believe your're starting that argument again!" She said tersely.
"Well, maybe if you paid attention to me instead of that pretty boy, then it wouldn't be a problem!" Hunter shouted.
"Pretty boy? If I didn't know anybetter, I'd say you were Jealous," Stephanie shot back.
Hunter had no comeback to that. Truth be told, he was jealous. He could not pinpoint where he went from regarding Steph as a business partner to..... I'm in love with her, Hunter realized with sudden clarity.
Stephanie went to grab her suitcase.
"Where are you going?" Hunter asked.
"I'm leaving, maybe Kurt will give me a place to stay." Steph said sarcastically.
"Don't," Hunter said.
"Why, so I can be berated some more?'' Stephanie snarked.
"Dammit, I love you!" Hunter shouted.
Stephanie who'd had her hand on the doorknob, stopped in her tracks. She turned around.
"What did you say?" She asked quietly.
"I love you," he said just as softly. There. It was out consequences be damned.
"Look, I don't know when or where, but right now my feelings for you run deeper than any feelings I've had for anyother woman, including Joanie."
That statement in and of itself was a revelation to Stephanie. Hunter rarely mentioned his ex, Chyna anymore, not even by her real name thought they both worked for the same company.
"Hunter," Steph started, but Hunter cut her off.
"Look if you want to end the marriage now, I won't stop you." He said sitting down on the bed.
Stephanie kneeled down next to Hunter and put her finger on his lips. "I love you too," She said.
"You do?" Hunter asked in amazement.
Stephanie nodded. "Always. Make love to me Hunter."
"You sure?"
"Never more sure of anything in my life."
It was awkward at first, primarily due to Steph's inexperience. But slowly their minds and bodies slowly molded together, becoming one. It was as if they were always meant be of one mind, one body, one soul.
As Hunter and Stephanie, began making love in earnest, it seemed that the problems of the past began to melt away. It was the end of their business partnership for sure, but the beginning of something deeper, something more permanent, more stronger than the two of them alone, underneath Hunter's soft caresses along Stephanie's skin and her low moans of pleasure.
When it was over they looked at each other with new eyes.
"Hey," Said Hunter softly.
"hey," said Steph just as softly.
As a song came on the radio, no further words needed to be said.
Lying here with you
Listening to the rain
Smiling just to see the smile upon your face
These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive
These are the moments
I'll remember all my life
I found all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more
Looking in your eyes
Seeing all I need
Everything you are is everything to me
These are the moments
I know heaven must exist
These are the moments I know all I need is this
I have all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more
I could not ask for more than this time together
I could not ask for more than this time with you
Every prayer has been answered
Every dream I have's come true
And right here in this moment is right where I'm meant to be
Here with you here with me
These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive
These are the moments I'll remember all my life
I've got all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more
Chorus
I could not ask for more than the love you give me 'Coz it's all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more
I could not ask for more
"Oh man are those dudes crazy?" Road Dogg asked the next morning, as he, X - PAC, Tori, and Billy Gunn came down for breakfast, discussing the events they witnessed last night.
"I know, and with Edge and Christian joining in? Breaking away from Gangrel must've warped their minds, piped in Gunn.
"But two fucking stories?" Dudes are lucky that snow drift was there last night! Hey Hunter are you listening?"
X - Pac asked, finally noticing that Stephanie was on Hunter's lap and they were barely eating anything.
"yeah, crazy," Hunter mumbled while kissing Stephanie.
The DX members looked at each other. "Hey Steph, your father's behind you," Road Dogg said jokingly.
"That's nice," Steph sighed contentedly not really noticing anybody but Hunter.
X - Pac's mouth dropped open. "Oh shit, you guys did it didn't you," he practically shouted.
"he he, that's funny," Hunter responded.
"Oh man, we lost him," Billy groaned.
"Come on, let's go pick on and the Hardyz, Edge and Christian," said Road Dogg.
Present
Things have changed so much since then, my family reconciled and everything seemed so perfect, Stephanie thought as the limo went towards the destroyed arena. Please be okay, Hunter, Steph prayed.
"Steph, we're here," Kurt said softly, breaking Stephanie out of her thoughts.
She looked at Kurt and nodded.
As the group got out of the limousine, they stood in shock.
"Oh God," Steph whispered.
Nice way to end this chapter huh? Okay, next part is were the carnage begins and if you want you favorite to survive or your least favorite to go to that wrestling ring in Hades, NOW's the time to speak up. I can't promise that everybody's going to be happy with the next chapter but if you don't speak up I can't know definitively who lives or dies. So feedback is desperately important this time!
