***For the two weeks that Steph and Brock are apart, I'm going to devote
one chapter to Brock's point of view and one chapter to Steph's point of
view and then the day of Steph's return to the U.S. is going to be the
chapter after Steph's point of view. Hope that doesn't confuse anyone.
Please read and review!! Thanks for all of your support!!***
Brock's P.O.V.
Brock hung up the phone that night when Stephanie called with tears in his eyes. He couldn't believe that their relationship had come to this. When he was with her everything seemed right. Sure he felt like the cowboy trying to woo the big city girl, but in all actuality, Steph had a lot of country mannerisms in her that nobody ever realized.
Brock took her advice and called Nicole to see if he could come out and visit her and Mya on his days off. Nicole said yes, so he traveled to Minnesota for a visit. When he got there, he started to try and find a place to stay, but a lot of the hotels and motels in the area around Nicole's house were booked because there was a big snowmobile to do going on, so he wound up staying with Nicole and Mya.
Brock knew that it felt really good to be with Nicole and Mya as a family and it was a lot of fun going to some of their old friends' houses that he hadn't seen in a long time. But he always thought of Stephanie.
At night, they would put Mya to bed and they would sit up watching movies and talking about what's been going on in their lives and catching up on old times, but it wasn't the same as sitting up with Stephanie.
It was finally the last two days with Nicole before Stephanie would return. Brock was lying in bed thinking about what all had gone on between Nicole and him. He decided to get up to take a shower and start the day.
While Brock was showering, he felt someone climb into the shower with him. He started to turn around and Nicole started running her hands up his back and down his stomach. "Oh Brock it has been so long," Nicole said while kissing him all over his back.
Brock leaned his head back, it had been a long time and it did feel really good. Him and Steph hadn't even slept together yet. They wanted to make the first time special. That's not to say that they hadn't fooled around or come very close to it yet. He moaned softly.
Nicole smiled to herself she knew exactly how to get what she wanted. Brock was always a very sexual person and she knew that was how she got whatever she wanted before and she was sure that it would work again. Nicole began to think to herself, "All I need to do is get him to sleep with me, because then he'll realize that he wouldn't have slept with me if he really felt that him and Steph were meant to be." Nicole began to explore his naked body with her fingertips. It felt so good to caress him again.
Brock was trying to figure out what was happening. Nicole was seducing him and he had been staying with Nicole but the whole time he was thinking about Steph. It was then that Brock realized "I'm in love with Steph. There's no way to deny that, I am in love with Stephanie Marie McMahon. The feelings that I've been experiencing, is love." But then Brock began to worry, "what if Steph wasn't in love with him? What if she was in love with Paul and he dumped Nicole to be with her and she didn't even want him?"
Nicole started to run her hand up the inside of his thigh and began to rub him, she was bound and determined to sleep with him right then and there.
She felt Brock raise his arm and she thought for sure that he was going to start exploring her but he backed off and slightly pushed her back. "I'm sorry Nicole, we can't do this." And he started to get out of the shower.
Nicole grabbed his arm, "Wait a minute, what do you mean we can't do this? We're adults Brock we can do this."
Brock took his arm from her and wrapped himself in a towel, "Nicole, I'm sorry but I'm not in love with you, I'm in love with Stephanie, that's who I want to be with. I can't sleep with you and I'm sorry that things didn't work out between us, but I still don't have all of my trust in you yet and I can't be with someone who I can't trust. I'm going to head back to Ohio." Brock started to go through his bag and find some clothes.
"Wait a minute Brock, what are you talking about?? You can't be in love with Stephanie, you don't know hardly anything about her. You and I have a child together Brock, we should be in this together for thick and thin, till death do us part."
Brock interrupted her, "Nicole, we were in this till death do us part until you slept with Mike, then we were over. I couldn't trust you when I was in Ohio training, how do you expect me to trust you when I'm all over the country or the world? I'm sorry Nicole, and you'll always be very special to me and hopefully we can walk away from this as friends, for our sake and Mya's sake, but I want to be with Steph."
Brock finished getting dressed and gave Nicole a kiss on her forehead, then grabbed his bag and headed towards the door. I'm going to go and start the truck and say goodbye to Mya.
Brock walked out to the truck and Nicole started to cry. She couldn't believe that he was leaving her for her. What did Steph have that she didn't??
Brock came back in and picked up Mya and gave her a big hug and lots of kisses. "Daddy will see you soon baby doll."
Brock looked over at Nicole, "I'm sorry to hurt you Nicole, but I can't compromise my feelings."
And with that, Brock turned and walked out the door and hopped in his truck. He knew that the whole time Steph was gone, he never called her once and she never called him. He knew that when she left things were strained between the two of them, and a lot of it was his fault. He knew that he would have to go out of his way to win her heart back.
While cruising down the freeway, he called Linda, he needed some information to make Steph's homecoming special.
**Please read and review! Let me know what you think so far!! Writie, you are awesome! What's happening between Steph and Paul? Will she see that she's in love with Brock, or is she going to find that she's still in love with Paul and using Brock as a rebound?**
