Lita was daydreaming as she sat alone in the women's locker-room,

with only the TV monitor to keep her company.

She wasn't scheduled for a match that evening and so had decided to

wear her denim mini-skirt, fishnets and boots, with a red off the

shoulder top. Her copper hair was pulled half up, and the rest hung

in loose curls around her shoulders.

She looked fantastic, especially after all the news she had received

on the night before last.

Stephanie McMahon was pregnant with Eric Bischoff's child. Lita

shuddered at the thought, closing her eyes and putting her head in

her hands. She hadn't spoken to her father yet.and she didn't really

want to.maybe it was better if he didn't know.maybe.

Lita got up and left the room, with only one destination in her mind.

she had to talk to Stephanie. She turned a corner in the wide

corridor, and collided headfirst with a tanned chest, causing her to

fall harshly to the ground.

"Watch it!" she yelled angrily, and then her heart instantly softened

as she looked up into Edge's surprised grey/green eyes. He smiled at

her and helped the diva to her feet.
"Hey there, I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you."

Lita gave him a glance over.he certainly was sight to behold, clad in

his wrestling tights and muscular bare chest. She shook her head

slightly to rid her of her wicked thoughts. She couldn't feel like

that towards the man.not anymore.not since her injury.not since.

"How have you been? I like the hair." Edge spoke up, still smiling

at her.honestly, the man never stopped.

Lita frowned, and narrowed her eyes.

"What do you care?" She snapped and wiped that gorgeous smile off his

face.

"Uh.I." Edge stammered, surprised by his friend's anger towards him.

He was sure that he hadn't done anything to upset her. Well if you

don't count knocking her on her ass.but that was an accident.

"Forget it." Lita spat, pushing past the tall blond Canadian and

walking down the hall, leaving him standing there, speechless. She

didn't have time to stand around chatting with Edge. Not when there

were much more important things on her mind.

She knocked on the general manager's door and waited till Steph

answered.

Lita stepped inside the office and scanned the room. Steph was

standing behind her desk, looking pretty irate and opposite her stood

Paul Heyman and Kurt Angle.great.

"Hey Lita, don't worry, Paul and Kurt were just leaving." The

brunette glared at the two men, who took the hint and began to walk

out. Paul winked at Lita as he passed, and she couldn't help but

wonder what they'd been talking about.

Once the door had shut, Lita took a seat at the desk and shot the

other woman a sympathetic smile. Deep down, she really did feel

sorry for her.

"Hey Steph, how are you doing?" She asked, glancing at Stephanie's

stomach, pushing aside the thought that the baby inside was

technically her little brother/sister, as well as being her.

"Actually Lita, I'm feeling so much better today, thanks to you,"

Stephanie grinned and ran over to Lita, linking arms.

"Um.I really didn't do anything."

"Yes you did. You listened to me and you were there for me when I

needed someone. Plus you didn't judge me, or tell me I was stupid or

anything.and I'm grateful." Stephanie spoke, and the former redhead

fidgeted uncomfortably.

"I have a surprise for you," Steph added excitedly.

"Yeah?" Lita said uneasily as the brunette practically dragged her

from the room and down the corridor, "Where are we going Steph?"

Stephanie laughed.

"To the ring of course!"
