**Some events may be out of order, but I couldn't help it. Things came to me too fast in order to keep them all in chronological order, so if you notice some things that aren't exactly right, sorry!! Thanks again Writie, you are the greatest!!! Thanks WWEFanFicAddict, I appreciate it!**

Stephanie sat on the plane, typing out an idea she had for a few of the angles going on for Smackdown, she was so furious about what Paul had pulled, she cried the whole way to the airport, and didn't feel like crying anymore. She really missed calling Trish and venting, but after finding Trish in bed with Paul, she just couldn't bring herself to look at her like a friend ever again.

Soon, Steph's phone rang. "Hello?"

"Hey, it's me, what the hell happened at Raw?" Shane asked, "I heard it was pretty nasty."

"Yeah, it was. Paul attacked me, and I couldn't push him away, and Brock came to my rescue, it it wasn't for him, god only knows what all Paul would have tried." Steph said trying not to cry.

"I don't know why you continue to put up with his bullshit, I think that it's time you talk to dad about his antics. Ever since the two of you broke up, he has been acting like he was back in the clique again, and he thinks that he can push you around whenever he wants, and I'm not having it." Shane replied with a very stern tone.

"Shane, I can fight my own battles, and I have to tread lightly because otherwise, it's going to get all over the locker room that if you date the boss's daughter and things don't work out, then she fucks up your career, and I'm not going through that." Steph explained through sobs. "Besides, it's bad enough that Paul attempted to call me on Brock and I's relationship and trust me, he was loud enough for the world to hear, plus everyone was outside my door when Brock stood up to Paul and rescued me."

"Wait a minute, first of all, what relationship? I thought that the two of you were just friends getting to know each other better, and second of all, explain to me what you mean by Brock stood up to Paul"

Stephanie went through the entire story, and explained to Shane about where she was headed and that she left Brock in Paul Heyman's hands.

"Great, I thought you liked him," Shane joked. "But seriously, you really like him that much? Do you really see yourself having a future with him?"

Stephanie smiled a little bit, "Yeah Shane I do, I really care about him, and Brock has done nothing to show me that he doesn't feel the same way. So I'm off to go pick up Mya for him, and surprise him when I get back."

"Did you ever think that maybe you should make sure that some people around the locker room have Brock's back in case Paul retaliates? I know that at Smackdown he'll have Batista and Orton and what not, but what about getting through tonight??"

"Shit Shane, I never thought about it, and the only supervisors there are J.R. and Heyman besides the road agents. I had better call some of the guys."

"Well you do that, and I'll see you tomorrow night."

"Bye Shane."

Meanwhile, backstage at Raw, Heyman was showing Brock around when Heyman got called away and Brock just started roaming around backstage. All of a sudden from a ways away he heard "Hey Lesnar, you know damn well that I can out wrestle you and you just don't want to admit it."

Brock stopped and turned around gearing up for a fight, but when he turned around, there was Kurt Angle grinning ear to ear. Brock too started to grin and met up with him and they shook hands.

"Good to see that you made it up here, how are things going?" Kurt asked him.

"Things are going well, I can't wait to get out there and start throwing people around, how have you been?"

"Oh, pretty good. From what I heard, you are gearing up to throw a particular individual around if he's not careful." Kurt said to him with a shit-eating grin on his face.

Brock tried to act nonchalant, "Gee Kurt, I don't know what you're talking about."

Kurt faked a cough, "Bullshit."

Brock started to say something when Kurt interrupted him, "No seriously man, good for you, but be careful, you just never know about him. Let's go grab some food and you can bring me up to speed on what's been going on with you and I'll do the same."

And the two men walked off.

Stephanie arrived in Minnesota about 12:30 a.m. and she went to the hotel that she reserved and called Brock but got his voice mail.

"Hey Brock, it's Steph, I just landed and I thought that I would call and see how your night went. I'll be awake for a little while, otherwise, feel free to contact me anytime. Talk to ya later."

Steph went and ran a bubble bath and climbed in and began to soak. Just as she was nice and relaxed, the phone rang. When she answered, even before she could say hello, she heard a deep voice on the other end.

"Hello sexy, whatcha doin?" Brock said to her in a deep, husky tone.

"I'm taking a nice, hot bubble bath, what are you doing?" Stephanie asked back.

"Well, nothing that exciting, I'm on the bus and we're on our way to Smackdown."

"Gee, sounds like so much fun, how did you like it? I was able to catch it on the plane, you did great!"

"Thanks, I was hoping that you would see it."

"If I would have missed it last night, I would have seen the video at Smackdown. So, how did the rest of your night go?" Steph asked.

"Great, Heyman showed me around, and then I hung out with Angle all night."

"Oh, Kurt's a good guy, you'll be happy that he's on your side," Steph started to explain.

"Yeah, I've met him at some amateur events, and we've come to be friends, so it was nice to see him last night."

"Brock I really appreciate what you did tonight for me, but you may have made yourself into a marked man, and I want you to be careful, Paul can be a handful." Steph said with concern in her voice.

"Honey, it's ok, I know what I'm doing and it's not going to scare me." Brock replied confidently.

"Are you around people you don't know? You're doing really good with this not letting people know yet stuff." Steph giggled.

"Yeah, I am, and I'm glad you think so. What about you, who all have you told?"

"Shane, that's it. I didn't get a chance to call my mom. You know Brock, I'm in this bathtub, and it's getting cold, too bad you weren't here to warm me up."

"Yeah, I would love to hold you right now," Brock started to say when Steph cut him off.

"Gee Brock, I can envision it now, you and me, laying in front of the fireplace, naked, enjoying each other's company a little too much after having a little too much champagne and me starting to do things to you that you've never experienced before." Stephanie started to tease.

Brock could feel himself start to become excited, "Don't start this, this is not fair," he said to her.

Stephanie took on a sexy voice, "What's the matter Brock? Don't you like knowing that I can make your body do things that it's never done before? Do you know what would happen if I treated you like a popsicle? I could take my tongue and slowly wrap."

"Come on Steph, that's not fair," Brock interrupted her feeling more aroused then he had in a long time.

Kurt was sitting next to him, "Steph? Your girlfriend's name is Steph? What a coincidence, I mean tonight Hunter was accusing you of.oh my god!" Then in a hushed voice he whispered, "Are you really dating Steph?"

Brock groaned a little, "Yeah Kurt I am, but no one needs to know, ok?"

Steph's cell phone started to die. "Brock, I've gotta run, my phone is dying. I'll call you after I pick her up and I'm on my way. I called Nicole on the plane and I'm going to meet up with her at 8:00 a.m. at her house."

"Alright sounds good. Have a good night, and sleep tight." Brock replied and hung up.

Steph hung up the phone and smiled to herself. "It's nice to know that I still have it." Steph stepped out of the tub and slipped on her pj's and set her alarm and went to sleep.

**Please read and review!! Tomorrow is the meeting of Nicole and Steph**
