"What do you mean she's your daughter?" Dan yelled, shoving Amy away so he was face-to-face with Matt. "She's not yours. It's my name on her birth certificate," Matt answered, on the verge of punching him. Amy brought Matt closer to him and kissed him softly. "I'm glad you came. I wasn't going to say yes anyway. I love you and I want to be with you, nobody else," she said as they pulled away. She then turned to the rest of the people in attendance. "Sorry guys, but the wedding is off." With that, she pulled him with her until they got outside. He drew her to him and kissed her deeply on the lips. Their tongues entangled together, dancing with each other avidly. They pulled apart and ran to his car as they drove to his house. As soon as they entered through the door, their mouths were pressed together and their hands roaming one another's bodies as they made their way up the stairs into his bedroom. Next morning, Amy awoke to find Matt beside her. She smiled as she remembered the night of passion and love between them. She turned a little, trying to get comfortable when he woke up. Kissing her forehead gently, he loosened his grip on her for a moment so that he could stretch his aching muscles. He was still tired from being up most of the night with Amy but she was definitely worth it. They lay in bed for a while, just talking and kissing. But, at midday, they had to get up, as they needed to pick Danielle up from his dad's. Matt led Amy to the shower and made love to her once again. After eating breakfast and changing, they made their way to Gilbert's. Amy's mum was there too. "Hey mum," she greeted, hugging her. "We came to pick up Danielle." "Speaking of which, why didn't you tell me Matt was the father?" her mother questioned, curiously. Amy just shrugged and looked at Matt. "Listen, though we wished you'd have cancelled the wedding before, I'm glad you're happy with him." "I couldn't be happier. I have everyone I need in my life now." They conversed for a bit before collecting their daughter and leaving. They spent the rest of the day in the park with Danielle, as a family, what they'd both wanted since finding out she was pregnant. In the evening, they rented a movie and cuddled together on the couch. They were a proper couple, just content in each other's arms.

~Several Days Later~

Amy was out with some of the other divas; namely Steph, Trish, Nora, Debra and Terri. All of them were still talking about what had happened. They all wanted to know how Matt was in bed too! They had been shopping and were now walking back to the arena ready for the house show. Amy was eating her ice- cream, thinking about the events that had happened over the past week. She couldn't believe that she was finally with Matt, after months of trying to battle the feelings that she felt for him. She could now shout to the world that she loved him and she didn't have to hide it anymore. Amy was so caught up in daydreaming that she didn't notice the other woman scream in delight and nudge her but they eventually gained her attention when they arrived at the arena. Stephanie pointed up to the sky and it was then she saw a small aeroplane with a huge banner whipping around behind it, reading: 'Amy Dumas, I love you. Will you marry me? Matt xxx.' She gasped and ran into the arena, through the halls until she reached their locker room. "Yes, I'll marry you Matt," she exclaimed, excitedly. He hugged her back and swung her around then set her down before pulling the ring out from his back pocket. "I bought it yesterday. I love you Amy, more than life itself," he said, slipping it onto her finger and wiping the tears from her hazel eyes. She leaned up and kissed up but they were soon distracted when they heard clapping from the doorway. They looked over, only to find half their friends and co-workers applauding their approval. Jeff was at the front, smiling at the pair. Amy dug her head into Matt's chest, blushing uncontrollably. He laughed and wrapped his arms around her. Everyone soon disappeared after congratulating the pair. Once alone, they rang their parents to inform them of the good news. It would be merely hours before the world found out about their engagement. Hell, they could bet at that very moment, someone backstage was posting the news on the Internet. After the house show, everyone wanted to take them out to commemorate before the newly engaged couple went back to their hotel room to have a little celebration of their own. It had certainly been the best week of Amy's life. She had Matt in her life, amazing friends, Danielle was still alive and her career was at the best it could be. She was so busy thinking about everything, that she didn't realise Matt was prodding her in the ribs. "You okay, babe? You zoned out for a minute," he asked, rubbing her arms. "Yeah, I'm just thinking about how great things are," she replied, smiling even wider and cuddling closer before they drifted off to sleep. After waking up the next morning, Amy found herself alone in the bed. Her first instinct was Matt had left her. However, at that moment, he walked into the room, a tray in hand. He placed it on the bed then kissed Amy good morning. She thanked him for the food and promptly began eating. After Matt had finished feeding Amy with strawberries, he gently laid her back on the bed and started to kiss her neck. Her hands rose up to tangle in his hair. Just as things started to get really hot and heavy, they heard crying beside up. They both sighed and stopped what they were doing. Matt got up and tended to Danielle. Amy watched on and he rocked their daughter, finally lulling her into a peaceful sleep. "You're so good with her," she said, curling next to him as he climbed into bed. Matt kissed the top of her head and draped his arm cross her bare shoulders. They lay in silence for a while, content with just each other and the soft breathing of Danielle as she slept in the crib aside them. Finally, Matt spoke out. "Ames?" he started. She quickly mumbled and waited for him to continue. "I'm not actually doubting you, but are hundred percent positive I'm the father?" "I was on the Pill and used condoms with Dan but with you, I didn't use anything. You have to go seven days between each prescription of the Pill, in which time I slept with you. Besides, she has black hair and brown eyes. Dan has blonde hair and blue eyes," she replied, putting his mind at rest. After half an hour of just watching TV and lying in each other's arms, they decided to get up and go for a walk somewhere with Danielle. They got out of bed around eleven o'clock and a quick shower together before dressing and making their way out of the hotel. They quickly drove to the arena to drop their bags off then walked through the streets. After a while, they found themselves at a beach. It was a lovely day and decided to stay for a bit. They both had their swimming attire and necessities for the beach. Finding a quiet spot, they relaxed on the sun beds, applying lotion to their already burning skin. Matt slipped his hand into Amy's and interlaced their fingers together. He brought her hand up and kissed the finger that adorned the engagement ring. She smiled widely at him and leaned over to kiss him on the lips. Danielle was awake by now and was laughing and making gurgling noises as she looked at the beach. Amy thought she looked so cute as she laughed and smiled. Danielle was quite big for a premature baby; the doctors had estimated she would've been ten pounds if she had arrived on time. Over the next hour, Matt and Amy discussed the wedding. They opted to have a quiet ceremony in the local church of Cameron, with just family and friends, though with that, most of their friends were wrestlers so actually, quite a lot would attend! They decided to have it in about three months time. Amy wasn't supposed to have the next three months off anyways but Danielle had been born early. So, she would use that time for planning.

~Ten Minutes Before The Wedding~

All the guests were inside the church, seated and waiting for it to start. Matt was at the front, waiting nervously with Jeff, who was best man. Amy was in a room with all the bride's maids and her mum who was holding Danielle. She was so nervous at this point and no one could seem to calm her down. Finally, Gilbert entered the room to inform everyone it was time to start. They all walked to the doors and waited for the music to begin. Before she knew what was happening, Amy was at the front with Matt. They smiled at each other and linked hands. Over the next half an hour or so, they exchanged vows and officially became husband and wife. Later that evening, they were at Jeff's house where he had organised a party. Amy finally managed to escape everyone and disappeared into the kitchen. A few minutes later, Matt entered as well and wrapped his arms around her. "I still cant believe we're married and have a daughter!" Amy exclaimed. "I know, and to think a year ago, we were just best mates," Matt replied, as he kissed her gently. "We still are best mates, babe." He smiled into the cove of her neck and nodded in agreement. "We kind of crossed over a bridge; from being best friends to married and parents." "Where are going for our honeymoon anyways?" "Hawaii!" he replied. She squealed in delight and turned around in his arms to hug him. She'd always wanted to go to Hawaii. And now she could, with Matt, then they'd be ready to start their married life, together, in love and raising their daughter.

The End
