I had been doing my announcer deal for almost a month and it would be
only another couple of days until my cast was taken off. Mystic Angel was
creating havoc throughout the locker rooms of the SmackDown brand. It was
the show before Valentine's Day and I was walking down the hall towards the
Diva's locker room. I walked in and was greeted by huge boxes that sat on
the bench.
"Torrie, these yours?!" I called to her.
"No, Peter's not that romantic," she laughed as she walked towards me adjusting her bra strap for her Valentine's chocolates match against the new girl Kristine.
"They for Nidia?" I asked setting my bag down next to the boxes.
"No," she said shaking her head. "They're for you."
I looked at her with a shocked expression and pulled the envelop off the top box. I smiled as I read down through the note. 'To my dearest Angel, I wish I could be there with you on Saturday, but I can't be. Just know that I love you with all my heart and miss you like crazy. I can't wait to see you again. It'll be third happiest day of my life. Second being the day I met you and first being the day I make you my wife. I have a special gift for you when we go home again. No, it's not an engagement, so calm yourself down. I love you baby. I truly love you. Until we see each other again, Love You Whole Heartedly, Sugar.'
"He's definitely a keeper Case," Torrie said.
"I know," I smiled as I opened the top box. Underneath the layer of tissue paper were 16 red roses and a white rose. "I can't believe he did this."
"Whoa, that's a bundle of roses. Why so many?" Torrie asked.
"16 for every month we've been together and the white one probably is for the one where they say that having a red and a white shows the two souls joining together," I said softly.
"Awwwwwe," Torrie said with a laugh. I pushed that box to the side and opened the medium sized one to reveal a knee length light blue dress that trained in the back to the middle of my calves. "Can I borrow that?!"
"Hell no!" I said holding it tightly in my hand as a piece of paper fell to the floor. Torrie picked it up and read it out loud.
"Baby, these are very simple instructions. On the 14th of this month I would like you to put this on with the matching shoes, yes I did get the shoes too, and go down to the restaurant of your hotel. Just trust me. I love you," she read.
"Hmmm......I wonder what he's got up his sleeve," I laughed. I pulled out the shoes and rolled my eyes. Crystal clear platforms, like in Cinderella. I opened the bottom box to reveal a small jar of chocolate syrup, a small teddy bear, and a bottle champagne. Attached to the chocolates was another little note. "Don't touch the syrup and champagne until the 14th."
"That boy gets weirder and weirder as time goes by," Torrie laughed.
"I know, but I still love him," I said laughing along with her. I stood up and pulled out my clothes for the nite. A pair of black leather flares, a black leather corset like top, and my black boots. I had Steph's hair stylist crimp my hair and do my make-up in dark mysterious colors.
I stood behind the curtain and waited for my music to go off for my last nite as a Smackdown announcer. I let out a deep breath and sauntered out onto the stage. I smiled at the crowd seductively and slowly walked down the ramp towards the desk. I put on my headphones and waited as the Smackdown pyro went off, signaling the start of the show.
"Well, it's a special nite here on Smackdown. We have a very special Valentine's Day match between Kristine and Torrie Wilson," Michael said.
"Yeah, it's SLUT nite," I laughed.
"Plus it's your last nite with us. And I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say that you will NOT be missed here. You've caused some problems with our superstars!"
"That's right Cole. I had Charlie Haas believing I was in love with him. I made Edge go against his once best friend Rey Mysterio. Plus I broke up the couple of Billy Kidman and Torrie Wilson. That was my favorite. And for some reason Nidia had it in her head that I was goin after her. I so totally don't swing that way!" I exclaimed with a laugh.
"You've definitely been a handful here. But lets get down to tonites action. Starting off with John Cena and Brian Kendrick."
The show was going great until we hit the second hour, during the Valentine's Day match. Torrie kept glaring at me throughout the match. Before the match ended I stood up and threw my headphones off. I held out my arms, beckoning her to come get me, and I was nailed in the head with a bottle of champagne. I grabbed my head and turned, facing Nidia. A look of terror grew on her face and she ran off towards the ring. She slid inside and stood next to Torrie, who stood there in her red bra with her hands on her hips. I walked to the ring and stood there, glaring at the both of them as Kristine walked up behind Torrie and hit her with a box of chocolates. I bent over in laughter as Stephanie McMahon's music sounded throughout the arena and the GM herself stepped out onto the stage.
"Whoa! Girls, stop right there! Nidia, you had no right to hit MY guest in the head! So, you will be punished. And Torrie, you wanna get back at Angel, right? Well, tonite's your nite. I'm changing this match into a Valentine's Day tag team match. In one corner will be Torrie Wilson and her partner, Nidia. In the other corner will be Kristine and her partner.......MYSTIC ANGEL!" Steph exclaimed. The crowd erupted into enormous cheers. My mouth dropped as I held up my arm to her. "Now, Angel, I know that you have a broken wrist, but you'll be able to use that to your advantage because it's a NON DISQUALIFICATION match! Anything goes!"
I rolled into the ring and gave Torrie a mischievous grin. Kristine climbed out of the ring and left Torrie and I standing in the middle having a stare off. "Oh, and did I mention that the only way to win is to pin the girl when she's down to her bra and panties?!" we heard Stephanie announce. I smiled at her and turned my attention to Torrie who was already missing her shirt. But unfortunately, Kristine was missing her pants. So, the teams were fairly even. Torrie pulled back my arm going to slap me, but I grabbed it and pulled her down in an arm drag. I stood over her before turning around to do a back flip. I pulled her up by her hair and whipped her into the ropes. She ran back at me and brought her down in a hurricanranna. I quickly stood and smiled at her as I picked her up into a release belly-to-belly suplex. I quickly tried to wiggle her pants off her but was nailed in the back with a teddy bear by Nidia. I turned and pushed her to the mat as Torrie tried her hardest to untie the corset. I turned around and whipped her into the corner. I ran up the turnbuckles and came down on her doing a whisper in the wind. I heard a bunch of male cheering and whistles as I stood up. I gave everyone a confused look as Kristine began to scream at me. I looked at her as she pointed at my chest. I looked down and I was missing my top. It had fallen off when I did one of my twists. I was left standing in the ring in my black leather pants and a dark blue lacey bra. I stormed over to Kristine and tagged her in as I jumped down to grab a trash can lid out from under the ring. I ran around to the other side and nailed Nidia in the back as Kristine gave Torrie a few chops to the chest. I watched as Torrie went for the roll up and tried to rip off Kristine's top. I slid into the ring and pulled Torrie back. Nidia ran in and pushed me into the ropes. When I bounced back, Torrie pulled me down in a neck breaker. She was standing over me when Kristine hit Torrie with a chair to the back. I gave Kristine a high five as Torrie crawled to tag in Nidia. Nidia ran in and tried for a clothesline but I caught her arms and Kristine ripped her shirt off. I laughed as the ref pushed me to my corner. Kristine held Nidia by her hair as she walked towards me to tag me in. I climbed to the top turnbuckle and pulled Nidia down in a tornado DDT. I tried to rip off Nidia's short shorts, but they were too tight. So I picked her up and dragged her over to her corner, picked up Torrie's hand and hit Nidia with it. Torrie looked at me with a shocked look as the ref called for the tag. I smiled as I pulled Torrie over the ropes. I turned her over and applied my Halo's Ring. Kristine went behind me while the ref's attention was on me and Torrie and ripped off Torrie's loose pants. Torrie dragged me towards the ropes and grabbed on. I picked her up and slammed her back on the mat in a scoop suplex. I quickly went for the cover as Kristine took care of Nidia. I heard "Sacrilege" and smiled as I pushed Torrie's head onto the mat. I stood up and smile, grabbing Kristine's hand. Torrie and Nidia stood in front of us, Nidia in her purple bra and Torrie in her matching red panty and bra set.
"And here are your winners, Kristine and Mystic Angel!" I rolled out of the ring and walked up the ramp backwards, waving goodbye to everyone. I walked down the halls towards the locker room when John picked me up in the air.
"I'm gonna miss you! It's been so good to have you here," he whispered.
"I know. But I can't wait to go back. I'm gonna miss ya'll, but I miss my boyfriend more," I said sadly. He set me down and nodded his head almost hurtfully.
"I love you Case. Just remember that," he said softly before walking ways. I shook my head in confusion and walked into the locker room.
"You leave tonite?" Adam asked putting his hand on my shoulder gently. I looked up at him from my seat in the airport and smiled.
"Yeah, I'm getting my cast taken off on Friday in Austin, Texas. Then I have to fly to Montreal to have a house show on Sunday," I smiled.
"I'm gonna miss you kiddo. It's been really great having you here," he said as he sat next to me. He pulled me into his body and rubbed my back gently. I looked up at him with tears in my eyes.
"I hate saying goodbye," I said softly.
"I know, me too." He smiled at me as he kissed my forehead. "Did you say goodbye to Mark?"
"Yeah," I said as my chin quivered. "I miss not having him around so much."
"I miss you too, honey," I heard Mark's deep voice speak. I turned around and smile crept across my face. I jumped over the seat and into his arms.
"Daddy, I love you," I said as a tear rolled down my cheek. "You will always be my father. Gil is a great guy and I love him a lot, but you took care of me. You were always there for me. You took me in as your own daughter. You loved me when I thought no one else did."
"Oh Case. It's okay, honey, I love you so much. K maybe my real daughter, but you will always be my first. You will always have a piece of my heart," he said softly as he wiped my cheeks gently.
"Oh God. Listen to us. It sounds like we're going away forever and never going to see each other again," I joked. I smiled at him and he hugged me tightly.
"I love you Case."
"I love you too Daddy."
"Mark, man, we gotta get goin," Adam said placing a hand on his arm. Mark nodded and let me go. I waved to them both as they walked away. I gave a sniffle as I grabbed my stuff and boarded my plane.
"I am finally cast free!" I exclaimed as I held my cell phone to my ear.
"How does your arm feel?" Trish asked.
"Weird," I laughed.
"We all miss you girl," she said.
"I know, me too. I'll see ya'll Sunday though."
"Yeah I know. Oh my God! I forgot to tell you. I think Tim might be proposing tonite!" she squealed.
"Are you serious!? Oh my God! Well, good luck!" I said excitedly.
"Thank you."
"Hey, do you know what's up with Shane? Like why he sent me everything he did?" I asked.
"No, I have no clue. What'd he send you?
"A dress, shoes, champagne, and a jar of chocolate," I laughed.
"Oh wow. I don't know. Wish I could help."
"Yeah right. If you knew, you would never tell me," I said.
Nope, I wouldn't," she laughed. "I gotta go get ready for my date tonite."
"Alright. Lata Trish! And good luck!" I said.
"Thanks, you too!"
I put my phone on the nite stand and stared at the dress that was laid out on my bed. I put my hands on my hips and let out a sigh before going into the bathroom to shower. Afterwards, I slipped on the dress and strapped on the shoes. I poofed up my hair and pulled it back. I smiled at myself in the mirror as I clasped my angel necklace around my neck. I grabbed my purse and cell phone before I left the room and walked down to the hotel restaurant.
"Miss, may I help you?" the host asked as I looked around the dinning room.
"I'm here for dinner, I guess," I smiled shyly.
"What's the name?" he asked.
"Casey Piniarski?" I questioned.
"Yes, I see you here. Your friend hasn't arrived yet. We were told to have you wait at the table. I'll show you there," he said as I followed him the room. He pulled out the chair for me and I sat down. "Is there anything I can get you?"
"Umm....no. But could you possibly tell me who I'm meeting here?" I asked.
"Sorry, but that's confidential," he said giving me a smile before walking back to his podium.
I sat at the table looking at the entrance to the dinning room. I folded my arms on the table and sighed as couples kept looking at me. I bit my lip as I casually looked at my watch. I had been sitting there for a half hour when I saw a man walk up to the podium. He was wearing a dark gray suit and his hair was dark and wavy. He carried a red and whit rose in his hand and he smiled as he spoke to the host. The host pointed to my table and the man nodded. He slowly walked towards me and as he got closer I got more and more excited. I jumped up as he quickened his walk. He wrapped his arms around me tightly as he kissed my lips passionately.
"Oh Shane! I love you!" I exclaimed as I looked into his deep brown eyes.
"I love you too," he smiled as he kissed me one last time before sitting down.
"I thought you said that you weren't going to be able to be here today," I said as a waiter poured us both a glass of wine.
"I wanted to surprise you," he said.
"Well, it certainly was!" I laughed.
"You look beautiful baby," he said softly.
I blushed slightly as I said, "Thank you." He put his hand on mine as we enjoyed a beautiful romantic dinner.
"Now, time for dessert," he said wiggling his eyebrows at me as he held hands, down the hall to my room.
"I hope you're ordering room service, cause all I have is the jar of chocolate," I laughed.
"Don't worry, I have everything planned."
"Why does that not surprise me," I said as he slowly opened the door. We walked in and were welcomed by a room full of rose petals. On the table by the window was a bowl of strawberries with the chocolate jar sitting next to them. In a bucket sat the champagne and two glasses sat next to it on the table. "What the hell?!"
"Surprise!" he said as he slipped his jacket off and throwing it on the chair.
"When'd you do all this?!" I asked.
"While you were waiting for me to show up for dinner," he laughed as he placed his hands on my waist. "What do you think?"
"Shane, this is absolutely romantic. I thought last year was the best, but this has definitely out done last year," I smiled as he brought his lips down to mine.
"Mmm," he moaned before pulling away. I tilted my head in a questioning way as he walked backwards. "Wait, one more thing." I crossed my arms as he pulled out a box from his bag. "Here. Go in the bathroom and open this." He gave me a seductive smile as I took the box from him nervously. I walked into the bathroom and opened the box. Inside were a silky light blue bra and a dark blue pair of panties. I shook my head as I lifted up more tissue paper to reveal a long silky white robe. I smile and changed into the outfit. I pulled the robe over me and walked out into the room where Shane was laying on the bed in a pair of silky boxers and candles were lit around the room. The bowl of strawberries and the jar of chocolate were sitting on the nite stand along with the two glasses of champagne. "Well?" He stood and pulled me into his arms. "You look beautiful."
"You did a good job," I smiled.
"Well, thank you very much, kind lady," he joked. I let out a quiet chuckle as we relaxed on the bed and enjoyed a much needed night of romantic bliss.
"Torrie, these yours?!" I called to her.
"No, Peter's not that romantic," she laughed as she walked towards me adjusting her bra strap for her Valentine's chocolates match against the new girl Kristine.
"They for Nidia?" I asked setting my bag down next to the boxes.

Go in the bathroom and open this." He gave me a seductive smile as I took the box from him nervously. I walked into the bathroom and opened the box. Inside were a silky light blue bra and a dark blue pair of panties. I shook my head as I lifted up more tissue paper to reveal a long silky white robe. I smile and changed into the outfit. I pulled the robe over me and walked out into the room where Shane was laying on the bed in a pair of silky boxers and candles were lit around the room. The bowl of strawberries and the jar of chocolate were sitting on the nite stand along with the two glasses of champagne. "Well?" He stood and pulled me into his arms. "You look beautiful."
"You did a good job," I smiled.
"Well, thank you very much, kind lady," he joked. I let out a quiet chuckle as we relaxed on the bed and enjoyed a much needed night of romantic bliss.
