Stephanie gasped at what she saw. It was her 14-year-old daughter from her first marriage! She hadn't seen her daughter Simmi in almost three years! Her father Adam Copeland (Edge) had won permanent custody because Stephanie was caught with marijuana. As the mother and daughter hugged, John watched back as he noticed that Simmi looked very much like her mother. While he watched, Simmi came up to him hugged him too.
"Oh my god, your John Cena! You're the United States Heavyweight Champion! Your even hotter in person than you are on television!" exclaimed Simmi, looking into his baby blue eyes.
"Yeah, I am. But wow, you look just like your mom! Your even prettier than her!" laughed John as he saw Simmi blushing.
They all went into the living room and Stephanie started to explain everything to her young daughter. The divorce, the drug addiction and most important John. Simmi was very interested in how her mom was involved with John Cena. She wanted to know every detail of their relationship. When she heard that her mom was actually dating him, she ran upstairs and slammed her bedroom door. How could her mom do this to her? She had told her mom several times how much she loved John. Her mom had just laughed it off as if it was a typical teenage crush; never had she mentioned that she was having an affair on Hunter. How could she do this to Hunter? Simmi loved Hunter more than she did her own father. Hunter always took her out and hung out with her and all her friends had a crush on him!
Simmi sat on her bed crying her eyes out but stopped when she saw the door opening. It was John, what was he doing here? He couldn't fix anything that was happening. Instead of talking, he shut the door and came and sat on the bed. He lay down and just watched Simmi for a few moments. She felt very awkward around him because her eyes were bloodshot and her face was a mess. As they continued to watch each other, John spoke.
"Simmi, why are you crying? Did you really want your mom in that relationship with-" whispered John, being cut off by Simmi.
"What's wrong with that relationship? Have you ever seen the way Hunter looked at my mom? He was in love with her! The only time I've ever seen a man look at my mom like that was my dad. I liked Hunter, he was really nice and a lot of fun. Then you come in and ruin their marriage and of all people my mom!" exclaimed Simmi sobbing.
"Did you really expect that at some point I would have a girlfriend? Maybe a wife, who knows. Simmi your 14, and no matter how much you like me and we hang out I can't date you! I'd get arrested!" exclaimed John bring her into a hug.
"I know John, I just never thought it would be someone I knew as close as I know my mom. I thought it would be some little flimsy blonde chick who I would hate!" laughed Simmi.
"Hey! Gimme more credit than some flimsy blonde! Listen Simmi, I might have more girlfriends after your mom. I might only have her, we could get married. But you can't expect your mom to stay in a relationship with a man who beat her," blurted John not noticing Simmi wasn't supposed to hear that.
"What?" asked Simmi getting up out of his arms and looking at him.
"Umm…maybe your mom should've told you that," said John looking down at the ground.
"He beat her…" whispered Simmi, dragging on.
"Yeah maybe I better call your mom," replied John, getting up towards the door.
"No, don't. We don't need her, you have to tell me everything John," exclaimed Simmi, grabbing his hand and crying again.
"Ok, I won't call her up here. But you have to tell her that you know but don't tell her I told you. She'll get pissed, and you don't wanna see me in trouble do you?" asked John, going into character.
"Ok I won't tell her," laughed Simmi, hugging him again.
"Thanks, so now that you're not crying anymore want to go downstairs and talk to your mom? And you can have some ice cream with me afterwards," asked John, offering her his arm.
"Ummm…how about we go out for ice cream after I talk to my mom?" asked Simmi, taking his arm and walking out of her room.
"Ok, just gimme a shout when your done," replied John, laughing at the look on Stephanie's face as they came down the stairs.
"What did you two talk about?" asked Stephanie, wondering how John calmed Simmi down so quickly.
"Nothing, Steph. Don't worry about it, Simmi will tell you," reassured John.
"Yeah mom, we have to talk. Let's go into the kitchen," said Simmi letting go of John and taking her mom's hand.
"Alright, honey," replied Stephanie walking with her daughter.
As Stephanie and Simmi walked away, John went back into the dining room where everyone was looking at him strangely. He noticed that Vince was giving him the most odd look.
"What's up everyone?" asked John, feeling uncomfortable.
"What did you say to her?" asked Shane, knowing the only one that could calm down Simmi was Hunter.
"Nothing! I just told her that it's ok and everything's gonna work out," replied John, sitting down.
"Yeah, but the only person that could ever calm down Simmi like that was Hunter," exclaimed Marissa, Shane's wife.
"Really?" asked John laughing at his talent.
"Yes! The only one that she ever talked to about anything was Hunter," replied Shane.
"Wow, so that bastard knows everything about this little girl?" asked John, pouring himself some food.
"Yes," everyone replied. Nobody knew just what John had said to Simmi that calmed her down but something did.
