Title: How Love Works

Chapter 10: Room 216 or Room 217

     Stephanie wiped away the tears as she stood up. She couldn't believe what she just heard. Paul had just told her he loved her. She thought everything was going perfect up until Paul said those three little words that she wanted to here for a while now. What was she going to do now? She had to find Trish. She would have looked for Amy but she wasn't her friend anymore. Stephanie left the arena because everyone had gone back to the hotel. Some went out to clubs, but Trish never went to clubs without Stephanie. She got into her waiting limo when her cell rang.

"Hello?" Stephanie answered

"Hey babe. Where are you?" Randy asked on the other line.

"I am on my way to the hotel now. I had some other things to do before I left." Steph said only half lying.

"O.k. I will be waiting for you." Randy said

"O.k. but first I have to stop by Trish's hotel room first O.k." Steph said.

"O.k. bye." Randy said.

"Bye." Steph said then hung up. She then dialed Trish's cell.

"Hey. Talk to me." Trish said.

"Hey Trish it's me Steph. Are you at your hotel?" Asked Stephanie

"Yeah why?" Trish answered

"I really need to talk to you." Stephanie said about to cry thinking of what Paul had said

"O.k. I'll see you when you get here. Bye." Trish said

"Thanks Trish. Bye." Stephanie said then hung up.

     Thirty minutes later Stephanie knocks on Trish's hotel door. Trish opened it to find a teary eyed Stephanie standing there.

"Hey what's going on Steph did Randy hurt you?" Trish asked concerned

"No it wasn't Randy." Steph said breaking down in Trish's arms.

"Then who hurt you?" Trish asked

"Paul." Stephanie said.

"Paul Whight or Paul Heyman?" Trish asked.

"No Paul Levesque." Stephanie said as more tears came down.

"What did he do?" Trish asked.

"Um Trish I haven't been that honest with you lately." Steph confessed.

"What?" Trish asked.

"Here let me start from the day before you had your dream about Amy and Paul going out." Stephanie said sitting down on the edge of the bed.

"O.k. tell me what is going on." Trish said sitting next to her.

     Stephanie started telling Trish what had been going on lately. Trish sat there wanting every detail from Stephanie. She couldn't believe that Stephanie was in love with Paul. She was so shocked to find that out.

"And then he said 'Steph…I love you'." Stephanie finished telling Trish.

"Well how did he hurt you if you love him?" Trish asked.

"He hurt me because he told me when I am in a relationship with Randy." Steph stated.

"Well looks like you have a choice here." Trish said.

"Yeah, but I don't know who to pick." Steph said.

"O.k. pick the one your heart wants." Trish said.

"How?" Stephanie asked.

"Who makes you feel yourself?" Trish started. "You have known Randy as long as Paul, but you and Paul are closer."

     Trish told Stephanie what she would do. The advice kind of helped Steph, but not really. She knew she couldn't ignore what Paul told her. She also knew he didn't ask her to pick between him and Randy, but she felt she had to. 'This hurts so much' Thought Stephanie.

"Trish thanks for your help. I really need to go now." Steph said walking to the door.

"O.k. I'll talk to Amy and good luck with this problem you have." Trish said.

"Bye." Steph said.

"Bye." Trish said.

      Stephanie left Trish's hotel room. When she got to the elevator she pressed two. While the elevator went up Steph was thinking about who she would choose. The hard thing was that Paul's room was right next to Randy's. The room numbers were 216 and 217. The elevator stopped and she made her way down the hall until she came along rooms 216 and 217. She stopped in the middle of the hall looking at both doors. After standing in the hall for about fifteen minutes thinking about witch door she would go in she walked towards room 217. She was about to knock when she changed her mind and knocked on room 216. The door opened and she smiled.

"Hi." Stephanie said to the man in the hotel room. He stepped aside and let her in.
