Stephanie sat on the couch with her eyes glued to the television... again. Paul sighed and came to sit by her.
"I thought that since you were home then you would want to pay some attention to me" he frowned
Stephanie finally looked up at him. "But the TV is much more interesting"
"That was just plain mean" He says
She laughed. "I'm sorry...." She says kissing him on the nose
"You should be" He tells her
Stephanie smiled up at him. "You know what I would like?"
"Uh... no but you are going to tell me aren't you"
"Yup.... How about we go upstairs and..."
"Let me stop you there.... You know we can't do that"
Stephanie frowned. "Why not?"
"Because.... You need to heal"
"I would heal faster if I were happier"
"No excuses" Paul told her. "Peter and Nayssa are coming to see you today"
"Really?"
"Yes" Paul said
"Shane said that he might stop by later"
"Your family seems pretty distant from us lately" Paul says
"I think they just realize that we need some time alone"
"Yes you are right" Paul says. "I guess"
"So when do we plan the wedding?"
"When you get completely better we will get married"
Stephanie frowned. "I will never be completely better, you know this"
Paul frowned. "I know that but I want you well so you can walk down the aisle. And that way we can have an exciting wedding night"
Stephanie smirked. "Oh.... I see your motives now"
"Exactly.... Anyway, no one really knows we are getting married yet"
"Can I tell them?"
"I don't think you will have to say anything, that ring on your finger will pretty much give it away"
"Yeah... it's so big that you can see it a mile away" She smiled
"I know.... I love spoiling you"
"You will regret it one of these days Paul"
"Please don't remind me hun"
A few hours later Paul's family were over at the house
"So Stephanie how are you feeling?"
"I'm doing ok"
"That's good to know.... Um is there something you want to tell us?" Lynn said eyeing Stephanie's finger
"Yes.... We are getting married"
"Really.... When?" Pat asked
Stephanie shrugged. "We aren't exactly sure just yet"
"Ohh... a wedding... can I come" Peter said jumping up and down
"Me too" Nayssa said
"Yes you two will be there"
"Will there be cake" Peter asked
Paul sighed. "Yes"
Everyone was talking when Peter walked over to Stephanie
"Aunt Stephy... why was you in the hospital?"
"Um..... I was sick" She said
"Oh... so are you better now"
"She definitely is"
"That's good because I don't want to watch Uncle Paul cry anymore.... It looks strange"
Stephanie laughed. "Yes I know"
Paul looked at her. "It doesn't look weird"
"Well you are a wrestler.... So I guess it looks kind of funny"
Paul smiled at her. "You are lucky that I love you because if I didn't then I would have killed you for making fun of me"
"I know... I love you sweetheart"
Paul pulled Stephanie to him and lightly kissed her as Peter scrunched his face up
"Please do that when I am not in this room"
"So leave" Paul said as Stephanie hit him
"That's not a nice thing to say to your nephew"
Paul shrugged. "Well I like kissing you and he doesn't like it when I do that so he can leave"
"Why don't you just wait and stop being impatient"
"Well if you could see how hot you look, then you would understand why I can't"
"Eww... Uncle Paul... you're grossing me out"
Paul laughed as the phone rang and he went to answer it
"Hello"
"Hey Paul.... It's hope from the hospital"
Paul turned back to his family and sighed. Stephanie was so happy and was beginning to move on.
"Um... hold on a minute"
Paul laid down the phone and went to get the cordless on. He then hung up the other phone and went into the kitchen
"What's up Hope?"
"I wanted to call to see how Stephanie was doing"
"She is doing really well Hope"
"That's good" Hope said before sighing
"What's wrong" Paul asked
"I need you to come down to the hospital. I received some very important information that you need to know about. I believe that Stephanie's family knows more about what happened then what they are saying"
"I thought that since you were home then you would want to pay some attention to me" he frowned
Stephanie finally looked up at him. "But the TV is much more interesting"
