Chapter 2:

Stephanie is thinking about Paul and bumps into Batista.

"Excuse me, I'm sorry my head was somewhere else." She says looking up.

"It's alright I don't think we ever met before but Paul talks about you all the time." Batista says extending his hand to Stephanie

"What does he say about me." Stephanie asks curious.

"Oh he just says stuff like how you're his wife and you left the company because of a dispute with your dad and if I ever meet you stay away from you. He always is showing pictures of the two of yous together." Batista says

"Oh does he well when you see that husband of mine could you tell him I have a special surprise waiting for him in my office." Stephanie says

"Yea no problem, you even prettier in person." Batista says.

"Whats your name by the way?"

"It's Dave but everyone calls me Batista."

"Well Dave it's a pleasure to meet you and if you ever need anything and I mean anything I'm the McMahon to come too." Stephanie says and leans up and kisses him on the lips softly.

"What are you doing, Paul is my friend I can't kiss his wife." Batista says backing up.

"Listen to me Dave, I do what I want when I want, I get my way no matter what. Don't tell Paul about this ok this is our secret but make sure you tell him I need him." Stephanie says walking away smiling.

Batista goes to Paul.

"Paul your wife wants to see you in her office." He says sitting down.

"Ok, were you talking to her because well see I don't want you talking to her so do me a favor and stay away from her alright." Paul says before he walks out of the room.

He goes to Steph's office and walks in.

"Hello husband." Stephanie says mad

"Batista is a little slow I said ex wife." Paul says trying to cover it up.

"Oh did you well he says you talk about me all the time and I was gone from the company because of a fight with my father. Why are you pretending to be married to me?" Stephanie asks

"I don't know Steph it was a joke don't take everything to heart." Paul says starting to yell.

"Why do you always get so mad?" She asks him.

"I got a bad temper why does it matter if I told one person I was still married to you?" Paul asks sitting next to her.

"Because we aren't married and it's your fault." Stephanie says

"Look I'm not going to sit here and fight with you anymore You live your life and I'll live mine." Paul says getting ready to get up.

"Wait fine so it will be alright if I told every women that works here that you're my husband still?" Stephanie asks smirking

"Why would you want to do that for?"Paul asks

"The same reason you would tell Dave that i'm your wife so they won't talk to you." Stephanie says.

"That's not even why I did it, I made an honest mistake." Paul says walking out of the room.

"Wait Paul." Stephanie calls after him.

"What Steph I gotta go work out and then I'm supose to talk to Trish about tonight." He says seeming rushed.

"Oh forget it then I didn't know you were busy sorry." Stephanie says softly and then lowers her eyes to the floor.

It made Paul remember when they got in fights and she would always do that.

"What was it Steph?" He asks raising her face so he could see her eyes.

"I said it's nothing it's stupid forget it." She says fighting to not look into his brown eyes.

"Alright well if you want to tell or ask me later you know where to find me."

"Yeah sure." She says hurt that he is going out with Trish.
