Lauren was getting ready to go to the final physical therapy session for her hand. All she needed to do after that was get cleared by the AEW doctor. Lauren and Sam had been together for almost three months. They were very happy. Lauren was in her hotel room in her bra and panties. She took her birth control pill and finished getting dressed. She went out into the living room. Sam was on the couch. She knelt down by his face.

"I'll be back sweetheart." They kissed.

"I love you."

"I love you too." "Wanna go to lunch when you get back?"

"Yeah." She left.

An hour later Lauren came back.

"How'd it go?" Sam asked.

"Great." "They said I'm good to go." "I just need to get cleared."

"Awesome." "Let's go eat."

"I have to get my debit card."

"Why?" "You're not paying for anything."

"Are you ever gonna let me pay for anything?"

"No."

A week later Lauren was at the arena. She'd been officially cleared. When she got to the Woman's Locker Room, she saw a bouquet of roses with her name on the card. She opened the card. It read.

Welcome back baby. Kick some ass. I love you. - Sam.

She smiled.

After she put on her ring gear Lauren went to find Sam. She found him in catering. He had his paint on.

"Hi baby." He said.

"Hi." She kissed his cheek on the side without paint. "Thank you sweetheart."

"You're welcome." "I love you."

"I love you too."
