Who knows in this soap opera.… now back to Played
Summary: White picket fences in Conneticut.
That night Ebonee is waiting for Paul after the show. Dwayne walks up to her and hugs her.
Dwayne: Sweetpea, did he hurt you? (looks at the bruise on her arm)
Ebonee: We just had a misunderstanding. Paul would never hurt me.
Dwayne: If he does, you tell me okay?
Ebonee: He won't. Paul loves me, thanks the same (Ebonee hugs Dwayne. Paul comes down the hall to them.)
Paul: Good card D.
Dwayne: Electrifying my friend.
Paul: You ready baby?
Ebonee: Yeah. See you later D, tell Dani and the baby I said hello.
Dwayne: Will do.
Dwayne leaves. Paul takes Ebonee's hand and they walk to their car. Paul opens her door and she gets in. They're driving to their hotel.
Paul: So what were you two talking about?
Ebonee: Dwayne would like us to come out to visit with him and Dani sometime soon. We were talking about family.
Paul: He's got a wonderful family.
Ebonee: Yes, must be nice.
Paul: Do you ever think about it?
Ebonee: What?
Paul: Settling down and getting married.
Ebonee: I probally wouldn't be that good at it; not having roots and all.
Paul: I think you're wrong. I know you would be an excellent wife, good mother shouldn't be too difficult.
Ebonee: You're biased. (smiles)
Paul: Do you love me?
Ebonee: Yes. I do.
Paul: And I love you. So there shouldn't be a reason why we shouldn't just get married.
Ebonee: Whoah whoa. Married?
Paul: Yes.
Ebonee: Kinda quick isn't it?
Paul: Who should care how quick it is if the love is strong. I want to marry you.
Ebonee: Life on the road with my husband. That's quite an angle.
Paul: It won't be when you're home in Conneticut.
Ebonee: What would I do there?
Paul: Raise our family.
Ebonee: Our family?
Paul: Yeah (smiles) I can get you nice and pregnant (smiles)
Ebonee: What about my job?
Paul: Baby, you don't need to work.
Ebonee: Paul, I just got this job.
Paul: What do you love the job or me!
Ebonee: I love you, but…
Paul: Fuck! Just forget it! Forget I said a damn thing!
Ebonee: It's a big step.
Paul: Look, you don't want to marry me fine!
Ebonee: I didn't say that!
Paul: Yes you did! Your job is so fuckin' important!
Ebonee: (a beat) I don't want to fight with you.
Paul: Which is why we just shouldn't say anything at all okay.
They continue driving and get to the hotel. They get up to the lobby to sign in.
Paul: I want my own room, I need to be by myself tonight.
Ebonee: What? Paul.
Paul: (to register) Two rooms please, put it on my card.
Ebonee: I can pay for my own room.
Paul: No problem! One room.
Paul signs in as Ebonee holds back her tears. When he's done, he picks up his bag and heads off to his room, but leans in to her.
Paul: You can even pay for your own rental car to take you to DC.
Paul leaves. Ebonee signs in and then goes to her room. She falls out on her bed crying.
Early the next morning Ebonee wakes up, she cried all night long and her stomach is so tied up in knots that she goes into the bathroom and vomits. Her phone rings, could it be Paul. No, it's Teri.
Ebonee: Terri?
Terri: Hi sweetie, I wanted to see if you and Paul wanted to have breakfast before heading out. (Ebonee starts to cry) Honey? Ebbie, what's wrong! Oh my God, did he hurt you again?
Ebonee: He doesn't want me anymore.
Terri: What?!
Ebonee: We got in a disagreement and he took a single room and told me to find my own way to DC.
Terri: Where are you?
Twenty minutes later Terri knocks on Ebonee's door. The two friends embrace.
Terri: I don't get it, what's up with Paul?
Ebonee: I don't know. This I would expect from Hunter, but I'm not in love with Hunter, I'm in love with Paul.
Terri: He just expected you to quit wwe?
Ebonee: And have babies, and stay in Conneticut.
Terri: This all doesn't make sence.
Ebonee: I know (wipes tears)
Terri: Honey you need to confront him.
Ebonee: He's not the same, not like when I first met him.
Terri: Come on, lets check out. Things will get better babydoll.
Ebonee and Terri check out of the hotel. Paul is also leaving and stands reading a paper. Ebonee crosses to him. She stands there a moment, he doesn't even acknowledge she's there. She tugs on the belt loop of his jeans and he looks at her and says nothing. He returns to his reading. Ebonee looks down. Then walks back to Terri and they leave. Paul sighs as he watches her leave.
That night at Raw, Ebonee is very unfocused in her match with Linda and falls the wrong way, she holds her leg and screams in pain. Ref's check on her and call out the trainers. Paul runs out to the ring and checks on her.
Paul: Baby, baby?
Ebonee: It hurts!
Paul carries Ebonee out of the ring and into the ambulance that is waiting in the back.
Paramedics put her in and Paul gets in with her, he kisses her and reassures her as the ambulance speeds away.
