"Mr. McMahon, you're free to go," the doctor says as Liz and Shane look up, "just sign the release forms and you can go home."
"Thank you doctor," Liz states, smiling at him.
He nods and hands Shane the forms. After filling them out, Liz helps him to the car that Paul brought for them. After getting Shane in the car, Liz heads off to the private airstrip to go home. When they arrive, the corporate jet is ready and waiting. Liz helps Shane out and then grabs their bags. After they board, the plane heads back to Greenwich.
"You could've gotten hurt coming out there," Shane states, not breaking his gaze out the window.
"I know," Liz replies, looking over at him.
"Why?" He demands meeting her gaze.
"You were hurt. Glen was down, I came to help," she says quietly, looking down.
"Liz, look at me. I know you tried to help, but he could've got up. He's like that."
"Shane, he hurt me."
"What! When?!" Shane demands, his anger rising.
Liz lifts her shirtsleeve to show him the bruises that were forming. He cusses and moves so he's next to her.
"When?" He asks again, only this time softer.
"When you were being put in the ambulance. He grabbed me and then kissed me."
"That bastard!"
Shane sees that Liz has tears streaming down her face. He goes to wipe them away, but she jerks away from his touch.
"Lizzie, it's ok."
"No! It's not ok! This is how Rodney treated me!"
"Elizabeth Andrews, I promise Glen won't hurt you again."
Liz nods and wraps her arms around Shane's neck and stares into his eyes.
"Thank you Shane."
He leans in and kisses her softly. She moves to deepen the kiss as their tongues explore each other's mouths. They pull apart and Liz lays her head on Shane's shoulder and sighs, closing her eyes. When they land in Greenwich, Shane wakes Liz up.
"Lizzie got to get up. I'd carry you but I'm hurt."
Liz opens her eyes and smiles. She yawns and grabs her bag. Shane leans against her and they get into the waiting limo. They ride to Liz's apartment in silence, until they stop. Shane turns to Liz and their eyes lock.
"Will you call later?" Shane asks softly.
"Yes, will you be ok?" Liz replies opening the door.
"Yeah, good night Liz."
Shane leans over and softly kisses her. They pull apart and Liz steps out of the limo and shuts the door. She walks up the stairs as the limo pulls away. Liz unlocks the door and pushes it open, standing in the doorway.
"What am I scared of?" Liz asks herself walking into the dark room.
She flips on the lights and smiles when she sees Sammy asleep on the couch. Liz takes off her coat and shoes while heading to the bathroom. She unbuttons her shirt and tosses it into the hamper then washes her face. Heading back into the family room, after she's changed into a wife beater and shorts, she turns on her cd system as Gunz and Roses "Welcome to the Jungle" plays.
*~*
Shane notices Liz's bag sitting on the seat next to him. He tells the driver to go back so he can return it. Shane knocks on Liz's door and when she doesn't answer, he tries the handle and it pushes open. He hears "Welcome to the Jungle" flowing out of the family room and heads into the kitchen to see Liz standing at the stove stirring something as she moves her hips to the beat. Shane smirks and sets the purse on the table and slowly walks behind her, slipping his arms around her waist. Liz screams and turns around to look into the amused eyes of Shane.
"Holy shit Shane!" Liz gasps, placing her hand on her chest.
"It's not safe for you to leave your door unlocked, you know," Shane states, pulling her into him.
Liz pushes him away and turns back to the stove as Shane pouts. She ignores him as he wraps his arms around her waist again and he softly kisses her neck. She giggles and turns around, wrapping her arms around his neck.
"You're an asshole," Liz states leaning against him.
"But you still love me anyways," he smirks, kissing her neck again.
She smiles and places her head on his shoulder and they stay like this for a long time, but then the phone interrupts them. Liz moves away to answer it as Shane watches her.
"Hello?"
"Hey Lizzie!" Stephanie's voice says happily.
"Hey Steph, what's up?"
"Not much, is Shane there with you?"
"Yeah, why? Something wrong?"
"Good, oh no. I just tried calling his place and when he didn't answer I though he was there."
"Yeah, he's here, wanna talk to him?"
"No that's ok. I just wanted to know if he's ok."
"Yeah he's fine, he's still the same jackass."
Shane sticks his tongue out and she smiles at him.
"Of course he is, well I'll let you go, bye Liz."
"Bye Steph."
Liz hangs up and sits beside Shane.
"What did my sister want?" He asks.
"She wanted to know if you're ok," Liz replies.
"OK, well, I should get going, its getting late. Good night Lizzie," Shane says standing up.
Liz stands up as well and follows him to the door. He leans down and gives her a sweet kiss.
"Bye Shane."
Shane walks away and Liz puts her hand on her lips and smiles.
*~* Stamford, Connecticut- Raw 9-8-03*~*
Liz and Shane get set up for the interview with Bischoff at Shane's office. Shane sits down in the chair and the camera guy says they're almost ready. Liz steps to the side and the camera guy gives Shane the signal that they're live.
"Kane, I will get revenge if it's the last thing I do!" Shane states angrily.
"Shane, Shane, how are you feeling?" Eric interrupts, "everyone saw what happened to you last week, and I know Shane that you don't have any testicles. But I just want to make it clear that there is no animosity between us stemming from Summerslam. But the match between Kane and yourself is a Last Man Standing match!"
"Screw you, Eric!" Shane spits out angrily.
"No Shane, you weren't listening- I just screwed YOU!"
They cut to commercial and Shane looks over to where Liz is standing. He notices the look on her face and he stands up, walking over to her.
"Liz, it'll be ok," Shane states softly, placing his hand on her cheek.
"I don't know Shane, I don't know," Liz replies shaking her head.
He leans down and kisses her softly. They pull away and head home to get packed for Raw the next week.
*~* Raw 9-15-04 *~*
Shane and Liz arrive early and see that some of the wrestlers are there. After dropping off her stuff in the locker room, Liz heads down to the diva's locker room to see if anyone's there. She pushes the door open to see Trish talking to a red head.
"Hey girls," Liz states happily smiling at the two.
"Hey Lizzie, how are you doing?" Trish asks as the two turn towards her.
"Ok I guess, how are you two doing?"
"Great, I haven't seen you in a while though Liz," Amy (Lita) says moving to give her old friend a hug.
"I know, I'm just so glad you're back and doing fine," Liz replies returning the hug.
"It feels so good to be back!" Amy states with a smile.
"Hey, why don't we all go grab a bite to eat?" Trish suggests, grabbing her purse.
"Sounds like a plan," Liz answers, "I just have to stop by my locker room to grab my purse."
The three girls head down the hall to Liz and Shane's locker room. Liz pushes the door open to find the room empty, but on the desk were a dozen beautiful, deep red roses. Amy, Trish, and Liz gasp and Liz runs over to flowers, noticing the card.
"Elizabeth, I need to talk to you. Meet me after the show in Catering," Liz reads out loud to the girls.
"Is it signed?" Trish demands happily, clasping her hands together.
Liz shakes her head 'no' and Amy takes the note out of her hands, reading it again. Amy then sets it down next to the roses and crosses her arms.
"Who do you think they're from?" She asks, as she thinks.
Liz and Trish shrug and then Liz grabs her purse. The three girls head down to catering talking about who sent the flowers.
"Maybe it was Shane," Amy suggests.
"Maybe, but what if it was from Glen," Liz states, turning to look at her friends.
"Aw hon, I don't think he'd do that. I'm going with Ames on this one and saying it was Shane," Trish says with a smile.
"Speaking of Shane, there he is. Why don't you go ask him?" Amy says, pointing to when Shane's sitting.
Liz nods and tells the girls to find a table. Liz walks up and all 5 guys look up at her.
"Hey Grace!" Paul states with a smirk, patting the open seat between him and Shane, "join us."
"Sure Pauly," Liz replies with an innocent grin as Paul glares at her.
The guys chuckle but when Paul turns and shoots them the 'don't even mess with me' look they stop. They resume talking and Shane turns to Liz.
"I thought you were hanging with the girls," Shane says.
"I was, but we decided to come down here so I stopped by the room to get my purse and I saw the flowers," Liz states.
"Flowers?" Shane repeats, noticing the guys were now watching them.
"Yeah, the card said meet me in catering after Raw," Liz replies, glancing up at Dave and Randy who are staring at her.
Liz sticks out her tongue and Dave rolls his eyes as Randy chuckles.
"Was it signed?" Shane asks.
"No, Amy and Trish thought you sent them."
"Not me. Do you think Glen sent them to you?" Shane questions.
"I don't know, but I have to go," Liz answers quietly.
"Not without me."
"Shane, you can wait outside, I'm going alone," Liz states firmly.
"Ugh, Fine but if I hear one thing I don't like, I'm coming in."
"Alright Shane-O. I'm going to go sit with the girls now, you guys scare me," Liz jokes standing up and walking away.
Liz joins the girls and sighs, putting her head in her hands. Amy and Trish look at her and ask her what Shane said.
"He said he didn't send them, someone else did," Liz replies.
"What is going on with you two anyways?" Amy asks.
"I don't know Ames, I honestly don't know," Liz says glancing towards Shane who's laughing at one of Paul jokes.
*~* Later that night, the contract signing between Shane and Kane *~*
Glen and Eric are in the ring with Shane's music hits. Shane climbs in the ring and grabs the mic away from Eric.
"The only reason you booked this match is because you think Kane is going to annihilate me this Sunday. But if I'm going down, you're going down with me Kane. As long as I'm breathing, I will be the last man standing," Shane states confidently, signing the contract.
Glen signs the contract too, and then knocks the table and chairs out of the way and they start brawling. Shane hits some low blows and knocks Glen to the outside. Shane picks up a steel chair and it connects with Glen's skull. Then Shane sets him up on the announce table and climbs to the top rope.
"Oh god! Don't do it!" Liz screams as Trish and Amy watch on.
Shane flies through the air and hits Glen with the famous elbow from the top. They cut to commercial and Liz rushes to the gorilla area where she sees Shane limping back. Liz runs over to him and asks if he's all right.
"I'm fine, don't worry. Come on lets go watch the rest of the show."
Shane and Liz walk down to the locker room together and they sit on the couch watching the women's match. A while later, Raw is over and Shane and Liz have their bags packed. They head down to catering where the card said. Shane waits outside as Liz pushes the doors open to reveal nothing.
"Great," she mumbles, "no one's here."
"Except me," a voice says from behind.
Liz whirls around to see the last person she thought she would see........ Randy Orton.

What does Randy want to tell Liz? Sorry this was very late, but my uncle who I was close with passed away suddenly and I've been very upset. Please review!! Thanks- Laura!
