"Yo! Jackie!"

Jackie sighed, rolling her eyes, and continued her way down the hall. It was probably just someone else, ready to tell her that they were sympathetic about the whole situation with Charlie and Dawn. People – friends, family, even fans – had been approaching her all week, giving their sympathies and wishing her the best. Frankly, she was really tired of it.

Didn't they know how horrible she felt already? It was just so hard to get over him, despite the way he had treated her. He... he had said he loved her, so many times. And she fell for it all. She fell for his lies, she believed him, until he stabbed her in the back and broke her heart. And now he was with someone she used to consider a friend... Dawn Marie. She was always wondering... was any of it real? She kept thinking she fell for him harder with each passing second and along that time he was falling out of love with her and in love with Dawn. And that really hurt. It was really weird to admit it, but right now, she was wishing she were Dawn. Still in Charlie's arms.

"Jackie!"

She whirled around. She wanted to let out all of her anger, all of her aggression on this person. It didn't matter who it was.

"What!"

The person stopped in their tracks, holding up their hands in shock. They looked hurt. Jackie immediately felt bad, especially when she saw who it was. She cursed silently, her cheeks flushing a little.

"Sorry, John. I just… you know, have a lot of pent-up anger after everything that's happened. Kinda embarrassing you saw me this way." She trailed off, laughing nervously. He grinned and shook his head. "No, it's a'ight. I understand, yeah?" Jackie made a disbelieving noise as she raised her eyebrows at him. With a smirk he said "No, I do. Seriously. Besides… this ain't 'bout me. It's 'bout you." John Cena paused, looking down into her eyes. "… are you okay?" The blonde bombshell smiled lightly, yet weakly.

"I'm fine."

"Good. There's nothing as bad as seeing a pretty diva like yourself all sad."

That brought a grin to her face. She gave him a sidelong glance.

"Was there something you wanted, John?"

And she started walking down the hall again, leaving him stupefied. A few moments later, he caught up to her and touched her arm lightly.

"Actually, yeah, there was."

"Oh?" She cocked her head toward him, eyebrow raised. She was confused. What could he possibly want? He let out a huge breath, then eyed her carefully, before saying:

"Yeah. I asked for a match against Charlie tonight. It's a no disqualification one."

"Why Charlie?"

Although he broke her heart, Jackie was still in love with him. And she was worried about him, since John asked for a no disqualification match against him. Still, she was curious to know why John had done such a thing.

"No reason."

The two continued on in silence for awhile, until they rounded a corner. Jackie stopped in her tracks, causing John to stop, which meant he crashed into her from behind. She let out a strangled moan, then turned on her heel and bolted down the corridor, leaving him by himself. He peeked down the hall and saw Charlie kissing Dawn lightly on the lips. He sighed in frustration, shaking his head as he ran down the hall after Jackie. When he finally caught up to her, he found her leaning against a wall, her head in her hands. Her blonde locks were shielding her face from view, so he had to say her name – just that, just once – to get her to look up.

"Jackie…"

He whispered softly, his words sending shivers running up and down her spine.

"Hey, it's okay."

"No, it's not okay, John! Don't you get it? I'm in love with him! And I just keep letting myself get hurt over and over again and over the same reason." She paused, sighing deeply. "And I just keep wondering why… why do I love him? After all this..?" John raised an eyebrow, thoughtful.

"Honestly, I don't know. I… haven't been in love before." His gaze shifted from her to the floor. She just stared at him, confused. "But he… isn't worth it. Not after all he's done to you, okay?" She shot him a small smile, just glad that someone cared. He smiled back. She drew in a deep breath.

"Hey, John?"

"Yeah?"

"Let me valet you out there, okay?"

"Yeah, sure, why?"

"I think I just want to… say goodbye."
