Disclaimer: As much as I wished I owned John Cena I don't. I don't own anyone you recognize even though it'd fuckin rock if I did. I only own Delaney and Jessica owns herself. I know Dave is on Smackdown now but in my story he is still on RAW.

Note: For those of you who are reading Change of Heart, What I Want, and/or Where Life Leads You…well I'm sorry to say they are all on hiatus for now. I don't really know where I want to take those stories anymore.

Chapter 12

It was now six months later and Delaney was beginning to wonder what exactly fate held in store for her, John, and their two children. She was trying to wait up for John to get home but she was so tired. When John got home one hour later he saw she was sleeping. He heard the alarm clock radio playing Jessica Simpson's song 'Angels'. As John began getting ready for bed, he couldn't help stealing glances as his girlfriend as she slept. He felt he had his very own angel right there with him in her. The past six months to John had been heaven. He and Delaney were finally get back to where they once were, and unknown to Delaney…he was planning a perfect night for them where he proposed to her for the second time and what he hoped was the last time. John took off his shirt and shorts and crawled in bed next to Delaney placing an arm around her waist. He smiled as she instantly cuddled up to him out of instinct in her dream filled sleep. The smile never left his face as he fell asleep. John awoke the next morning thanks to the sun shining through the windows. He realized he'd never turned off the clock radio and heard the DJ announce the next song as Doug Supernaw's 'Not Enough Hours In The Night.'

'Definitely agree with that song. I never have enough time at night to be with my family.'

He looked down at Delaney's face where it rested on his chest. He could tell she was still sleeping and smiled. He carefully untangled his body from hers and got out of bed. He smiled as he saw her roll over onto his side of the bed. It was then he noticed the shirt she was wearing. It was one of the first shirts ever had made for his WWE fans to buy.

'God she's beautiful.'

John stopped in the doorway as he began to leave their adjoining bathroom. He stretched his arms up above his head and grasped onto the top of the wooden doorway lining. His friends would probably call him crazy right now for watching Delaney sleep, but he was so content doing it. He couldn't count how many times he'd dreamed of moments like these when they were broken up. He was so happy it wasn't a dream anymore…happy and in love.

'Delaney would kill me if she knew I've been starin at her all this time.'

John noticed Delaney began to wake up and stayed in his place. Delaney sat up in bed after realizing John wasn't lying next to her. She noticed he was standing in the doorway to the bathroom watching her. She began to make her way over to him. As she stood in front of him, she noticed the small water droplets descending down his body to the dark blue towel that rested on his hips. She smiled and leaned in and kissed his cheek. Delaney reached in the shower and turned on the water. After her shower Delaney wrapped a towel around her body and made her way to her closet. After laying out her clothes for the day on the bed, she walked back into the bathroom where John was about to start shaving. John listened to the next song on the radio and it seemed the song 'Be Careful Where You Kiss Me' by Andy Griggs was being acted right then and there. John watched in the mirror as she walked up behind him wearing nothing but the dark blue towel she'd wrapped around herself after her shower. She wrapped her arms around his back from behind and rested her hands right above the towel wrapped around his waist. She placed a kiss on his back between his shoulder blades.

"Baby girl…"

Delaney gave John another hug and smiled.

"Good morning baby."

John sighed as she began to place kisses on his shoulders, neck, and upper back. She knew every button of his to push, and it'd been so long since they'd made love. They hadn't been intimate since the night of Jessica and Dave's rehearsal dinner because Delaney hadn't wanted to rush things. John turned around to face his girlfriend.

"Delaney…you can't be doin that…not if you don't want certain things to happen…"

"Maybe I do…"

"I thought you wanted to wait until we'd been back together for a year."

Delaney wrapped her arms around John's neck and pulled his face down to hers. Just before she placed her lips against his he heard her mumble something.

"What?"

"Make love to me John."

John began to kiss her slowly and softly. He lifted her into his arms and carried her to their bed. As much as he loved their children he was glad they weren't going to be picking them up until later that day from Delaney's brother's house. One month later John had sent Delaney on a goose chase around his hometown of West Newbury. He was standing in the small park he'd taken her to on their first date. He had a midnight picnic set up on the same picnic table that they'd eaten on then. There were candles everywhere and there was a path leading to it that John had placed a trail of long stemmed red roses on. He watched from a hidden spot behind an old oak tree that was next to the picnic table as she picked up each rose. He used the remote in his hand and aimed it at the small portable CD player that sat on the table. He pressed play and Michael Peterson's 'From Here To Eternity began to play. Delaney was in shock. Everything was set up like their first date. She wiped a few tears away from her eyes as she heard the song that was playing. John stepped from behind the tree and walked over to her. He got down on one knee and opened the ring box in his hand. Sitting in the box was the same ring he'd given to her before. Delaney couldn't believe that he'd held on to it all these years.

"Delaney…I'm sure you're wondering why I've chosen this exact place and time for this. At this exact place we had our first date. At this exact time I asked you to be my girlfriend. So I'm asking you here and now…Delaney Ann McIntyre…will you marry me? Will you be mine for eternity?"

Delaney smiled and nodded her head yes. John smiled as he placed the ring on her left ring finger. He pulled her into his arms and placed his lips on her own.

"I love you baby girl."

"I love you too John."
