The collective cheers was like music to every face's ears. Chris made his way backstage, a smile on his face. He just defeated Edge in a match. The boy tapped out. Just like he suspected he would. Chris grabbed a bottled water from the buffet table and walked into his dressing room. He quickly changed into a black t-shirt and a pair of faded blue jeans. He grabbed his comb and re-tied his hair. He walked out of his dressing room and made his way to Lita's. He opened the door. She wasn't there. And all of her stuff was gone.

She was on the other side of the arena. Lita bit her lip. "I need your help...I need your help with this Stephanie mess." That prompted a smile from the man she was talking to. A big smile.
****
Chris walked to the locker room and peeked his head inside. He wanted to go to the hotel already. He hadnt been able to spend any time with Lita since she was off doing all that Diva shit. God he hated it. Anyone looking at his women...woman...he hated it. Chris saw Kurt in the looker room and he walked in. "Hey, Kurt? Have you seen Lita?" Kurt looked up. "Sorry man, I havent--" "Maybe she decided to dump you ass, Jericho. Ever think of that one?" Edge was leaning casually against the wall in a blue shirt and a pair of jeans. Chris's jaw tightened and he walked towards Edge. "Where is she?" Edge smirked and damn he wanted to smack that bitch ass smile off of his face. "What the fuck are you smi--" "I saw her at the buffet table." Chris turned to D-Von Dudley. Chris nodded. "Thanks, D." Chris glared at Edge before walking towards the door. "Bye, Chris!" Edge said sweety. Chris paused at the door before walking out. One of these days, he was going to knock the shit outta that little bitch. Kurt turned to Edge. "Dude, why do you have to be such a dick?" Edge laughed and grabbed his bag. The smile he wore didn't quite reach his eyes. "Because I can."

Chris found Lita chatting beside the finger sandwiches with Jaqueline. Chris made his way to her. But not without seeing Steph out of the corner of his eye. Chris wrapped his arms around Lita and kissed her temple. "You ready to go to the hotel?" He spared a quick glance at Steph. "Sure...uh, I'll talk to you later, Jackie." Chris nodded at Jackie. "See ya, Jackie." As they passed by Steph, he spoke just loud enough. "Babe, I wanna make love to you all night." Lita giggled. "Making up for lost time...sounds good to me."
****
Steph watched as they left. The pencil that she had been gripping was broken in half. She felt a hand on her shoulder. "It'll get easier, Steph." Stephanie turned to Kurt. She smiled gently and reached out to hug her friend. "I don't know," She whispered. "I just don't know."
