Rey's POV:

It had been a few weeks since the whole incident with that Danielson guy, and Brian was getting

back to his normal perky self. There for a few days he really had me worried, he would barely say three

words, and was just a shell of himself. That was until Steph told us that he had been turned down for a

contract, due to 'reasons beyond her control'. She said that he had taken it well, and that he said that we

already had a large roster already and he didn't really think he'd get the job. Brian looked like he had a

million pounds lifted off of his shoulders after she told us that he had left peacefully. Everything would get

back to normal.



We were walking into the arena with Rhyno, Chris Benoit, Brock and Kurt when Brian looked at me.

" Shit, I forgot the other bag in the car." He said. " I'll run back and get it."

" Okay, just be careful, and don't get lost. Philadelphia is a big city, and we don't want to have to

look for you all night." I said, smiling at him.

" Shush you." Brian said, letting go of my hand and heading back towards the parking lot.

We went to the catering area after we got our bags in the locker room. We sat there talking and

eating when Eddie came over.

" Hey everybody. Rey, where's your cuter half?" Eddie said looking at me. I looked down at my

watch and realized that Brian had been gone for almost an hour.

" He probably just got caught up signing autographs outside. You know how he gets to talking to

someone and completely looses track of time." I said.

" Essa, I was just out there. Brian is not out there." Eddie said.

" He's a big boy, he'll be alright Rey, don't worry." Chris said.

" Yeah, you're right, knowing him he just turned the wrong way and is on the other side of the

arena going 'where the hell am I?'." Rhyno said.

" But this isn't like B. He's normally right here." I said patting the empty seat beside me.

" God, talk about seperation anxiety." Chris said.

" Something's not right Chris." I said.



" Hey Rey, somebody just found this outside. Isn't this Brian's bag?" John Cena said, coming in

the room. I looked at the bag and recognized it right away.

" That is Brian's bag. Did you see him?" I asked, standing up.

" No, it was in the middle of the parking lot." He said handing it to me. I opened it to see his

walkman, CD's and everything else in it.

" Everything there?" Rhyno asked.

" Yeah." I said, feeling my heart beat a million miles a minuet.

" Do you think a crazy fan got him?" John asked.

" I hope we're that lucky." I said. " I think I know who's got him."
