Eric ran his fingers through his hair for a moment, trying to figure out what to do next. Instead of thinking it over he quickly assumed it was alright to continue kissing the young McMahon without thinking twice. Eric put his hands on Stephanie's waist and leaned in to kiss her once more but she turned away slowly sharply. "I have to go now."
She looked up at him with her deep blue eyes full of sorrow, and gave him a half smile. "I'm sorry." She softly said before finally escaping his touch.
Eric sighed then looked off to the side. "Oh, that's right. Tonight you were going to steal one of my superstars, how could I possibly forget that?" He made a snide remark with a smug look on his face, continuing on. "Tell me, did you sleep with one of the superstars in order to get them on your show Steph? Or did you just make a promise to give it up when you know you won't? Scott was right, you're a tease." He said, even though he knew good and well she was after a female superstar.
Stephanie glared. "Now you know why I could never be interested in someone like you."
Eric felt like she hit him where it hurt, but he wouldn't let her get the best of him. He held his heart as if he was in pain in a fake manner, "oooh, ouch princess. I'm so hurt. What ever will I do?" He half-laughed to himself even though inside he was slowly dying.
Stephanie walked up to him and slapped him hard. "This is the last time I'm going to tell you. Stay. Away. From. Me." She then turned her back on him and stormed off.
Eric's smile turned to an angry expression, but then quickly changed to a sick smirk. I love it when she plays hard to get. He thought to himself.
Stephanie walked around the arena, looking for the diva she was going to sign to Smackdown but couldn't find her, it was then that she ran into her ex husband. Stephanie stopped and swallowed hard for a moment, looking at the angry expression on his face. "I'm not even going to ask what you're doing here, I'm just going to assume you're here to steal one of RAW's superstars." He crossed his arms over his firm chest.
Stephanie let her arms fall at her sides. "Actually, yes I am here to sign .. a diva." She nodded for a moment, realizing their conversation was a bit more awkward then she had imagined.
HHH nodded for a second then spoke with a sarcastic manner in his voice. "Well, I'd just love to stay and chat with my ex wife who I haven't spoken to since the divorce but I have more important business to take care of." He smirked then brushed passed her.
Stephanie turned to him for a moment. "Hunter." She called out.
HHH turned around sharply. "What Steph?"
"Never mind." She said softly before walking off. HHH raised an eyebrow and watched her leave for a moment, there was obviously no respect between either of them for putting each other through hell during the divorce process 3 years ago, and neither of them planned on getting on one another's good side anytime soon.
Eric watched backstage from the segment that just went on between HHH and Stephanie. His eyes narrowed a bit as he tried to figure out what Stephanie was trying to say to HHH. "What the hell am I doing here?" He said to himself.
You are moping around hoping Stephanie will walk right into your office, take off all her clothes and- Suddenly he shook his thoughts out of his head. It was highly inappropriate to think of her in that way when he was trying to think of ways to win her over. But then again, he did notice over the years she seemed to like the way he looked her over, made remarks about her breasts, talk about how attractive she was and occasionally drop hints that he'd like to 'get to know her better.'
When Stephanie arrived in the parking lot she saw a familiar figure waiting for her at her limo. She sighed to herself and walked up to him with caution. "What do you want Eric? I told you to leave me alone. Don't you get it? Or do I need to slap you again?" Please don't make me slap you again, I hate it when you make me do that. If only you weren't such a jackass at times.
Eric raised an eyebrow and looked at her briefly. "I know I can be a jackass sometimes Stephanie." He started.
It's almost like he can read my mind. This isn't the first time he's repeated something I've thought.. even if it was one word out of the whole sentence. She cocked an eyebrow up. "Eric, you can't..." She began, then started to laugh a little to herself. "It's impossible."
"What's impossible Steph?" He asked her, a serious tone in his voice.
He can't possibly...She began.
"Never mind Bischoff, just get out of my way so I can head back to my hotel and get some sleep." She moved closer to him, trying to find the handle to the door.
Eric moved his body against her gently, pressing her against the car. He leaned in as if he was about to kiss her neck, but instead of a pair of warm lips touching her skin she felt his hot breath on her neck, part of her began to quiver for a moment, almost anxious to see what he would do next. He slowly began to move up to her cheek, she could feel his skin so close to hers, then finally he was face to face with her.
They locked eyes for a moment before he leaned in to kiss her. Stephanie felt her whole body go weak, how was this any different then the other times we've kissed? She thought to herself.
Eric gave her a soft, sensual kiss for a moment. She let her hand slide up onto his chest, his black leather coat gently touched the top of her hand. Eric pressed her against the limo a bit harder, letting his tongue massage hers for a moment then finally broke the kiss.
Stephanie looked at him as if she had completely lost herself in him. He touched her cheek gently then spoke. "I'm going to drop by Thursday night, I hope you don't mind." He grinned.
Stephanie just shook her head 'yes' gently. She couldn't believe what an amazing kisser he was. He had the softest lips, and he really knew how to kiss her! Whether it was aggressive, soft and sensual, or a surprising kiss, he kept her in a state of awe.
"See you Thursday Steph." He winked before walking off, heading back to his office for the last 15 minutes of RAW.
Stephanie gulped for a moment then opened her door, allowing herself to get into the limo and sit down for a moment, collecting her thoughts. "Where to Ms. McMahon?" The driver asked.
"The hotel please." She said quietly.
Stephanie laid back and tried to relax, she took out her planner and wrote down her plans for the rest of the week, and a reminder to try and call Molly Holly one more time to see if she still wanted to sign on to Smackdown.
Author's Notes: Dun dun! It's Molly Holly! Where is Stephanie and Eric's relationship going? And is Steph catching on to what's going on with Eric? Hmm. I apologize for the shortness of this chapter and for taking forever to finally put it up. I've had some things go on in my life that I've been pretty busy with. The next chapter should be up shortly.
