AS TOLD by me

November 19, 1999 Chapter 4 I had been tring to call Stephanie since the last Smackdwon, but I could not get in touch with her all week, all I got was her answering machine.
On smackdown, when we would walk down the hall ways all she would do was ignore me, or roll her, eyes the only time I even talked to her, is when we were in the coffe room, together.
We were like 10 feet away room each other, and staring at each other, when, she reached over, and kissed Andrew in the mouth, I was shocked, that she did it right in front of me, after they had broken up!
I hid my dissapointment, and as Chyna walked by, I grabbed her and kissed her too, and then put my arm around her, and kissed her forehead. I really didn't want to, but she was the first girl that walked by, and I had to get Stephanie back.
She smirked, at me, then she , and Andrew left the coffee room quietly.
"Hunter!" Chyna shrieked, as she put her hands around my waist. "Does mean we are back together again?" she asked.
Before she could say anything else, I pushed away from her, and went into the Dx lockerroom.
"Hey man." X-PAc greeted me from the couch.
I rolled my eyes at him.
"Well, thanks to you, Sean, Stephanie just hooked back up with Test, now how you possibly manage to ruin, what I just fixed, I do not know!" I yelled at him.
"Well, somebody's got their panties in a bunch." said X-pac, looking shocked at me.
I just rolled my eyes, I couldn't really be mad at X-Pac, because he didn't do it on purpose, and he was drunk, and plus it was my fault, for not telling him, or Stephanie.
"Listen, I'm sorry, alright." I said, as I touched my head.
"Alright, Helmsley, I watched you at the resturant, and in the hall, so what's going on!" Roaddogg asked me supiously.
"Nothing is going on." I lied again.
"Alright, fine, you wanna make it hard did you fall in love with Stephanie McMahon or not, now just answer the question!" he said.
I looked at my hands.
Then at my friends. "Answer the question!" he yelled.
"Yeah." I then said.
"I knew it." said roaddogg in an 'matter of fact' way.
"You knew what?" I said.
"I knew that you really liked her, on that second date." he said.
I tried to smile, but us talking about her, just kept bringing up how she was back together with Andrew.
"Come on man, you can't like a McMahon, remember what you said about all of them, you are the leader against the dictator Vince himself, and if you date his daughter, how will that look!" whined X-Pac.
"I don't care." I said.
They both stared at me.
"Oh, yeah, he's lost his mind." Roaddogg said.
"Yep."agreed X-Pac.
I sat there thinking for a while, as my firends, left for their match.
How was I going to talk to Stephanie now? Some how she had gotten back together with Test, and they were engaged.
I cared so much about her, what was I going to do?
It was then, AS TOLD by me, that I decided to go and see my mom.
After about a 2 hour drive, I finaly reached my mom's house. My mom, Hope and I have a really good relationship, and I was hoping that she would help me with my problem.
My mom, is just 45, and she looks so young, that sometimes, people mistake her for my sister, and she knew alot about love and everything, an area of which I knew nothing about, I was a guy, and not sentive at all.
"Honey, you need to talk to her." was my mom's advice once I had told her what happened, about Stephanie.
"But she's back with her fiance' she'll never talk to me now." I said, as I sat down on the couch, of the her nice home. She got her a glass of tea, and offered me some.
"You've got to do something...anything...because you love her!" Hope said.
I smiled.
"You're right." I said.
"Listen, I can see it, me and your dad, have true love which is exactly what you have with Stephanie...and if she is as great as you say she is, she'll want you back." Mom said.
"But I don't know, mom, she already got enageged to a guy she didn't love, because of her dad...what if this makes her marry him?" I asked.
"It won't." Hope said.
"But what if she hates me forever?" I asked.
"She won't." said Hope.
"And what if Dx bails on me?" I asked, knowing that would never happen.
"They won't." she smiled.
"How do you know all this?" I asked her annoyed. "Because you're my son...and you'll do anything for the woman, you love...you're still young, but you're not a totaly unfeeling, male shovenist either...you know this emotion, even if you're not sure what it is...it's love." Hope said as she kissed my forehead.
"Mom, see you always do this, you can't just give me a staight answer...like when I used to ask you how to spell words when I was seven, all you had to do was spell the word, but no, you make me search 2 hours for a dictionary, only to find out that the word isn't even in the dictionary!" I said, getting angry She laughed.
"You know what I mean." she said, and went back upstairs.
I thought for a second...I did know what she ment, she men, save our relationship, at all costs. And that's what I was going to do if it ment, to kidnapp her, and marry her my self.
So later that night, I tried to call Stephanie one more time, and finaly she answered.
"Stop calling me." she answered.
"No, I won't you know why? because I love you, and I'm not going to stop..until you admitt you love me, and you have to understand, that it was an accident, I never ment to hurt you!" I said.
There was a silence.
"Hunter, I'm sorry I wasn't thinking I really was imagining Andrew instead of you...I love him." She said.
I laughed.
"You're such a good actress, baby, of I didn't know you as well as I do, I'd think you were telling the truth." I said. "I am telling the truth...and as far as our wedding goes...it's the 29th...you're not invited!" she said.
"You can not marry this guy!" I yelled.
"Oh I can and I will." Stephanie said.
"Would you just!...meet me, please...!" I started.
"No!" She yelled.
"I just want to apoligize to you, please." I said.
"No!" she yelled.
"Why? I don't get it, do you like being hurt...God, Stephanie if he's calling you a bitch now, what he'll be doing in 5 years...hitting you!" I yelled.
"Why do you continue to try to hurt me?" she asked, after, about 2 minutes of silence. I could tell she was cring,she knew I was right, because it was true, if Andrew was yelling at her now, by 5 years, he probably would be hitting her, and that scared me, if she didn't want to be with me, fine, but I couldn't let Andrew hurt her.
"I'm not tring to hurt you, I love you, why can't you get that!" I yelled.
I then could hear her cring.
I had hurt her, but she still loved, me she just wouldn't admit it.
" I hate myself, for hurting you...please let me just see you...for ten minutes!" I begged.
She sighed. "Next Thursday, you've got ten minutes!" she said.
"Thank you so much." I said.
"Yeah...well, I have to go." she said before hanging up the phone. I smiled to myself thinking about her.
November 21, 1999 Those last four days not being able to see her, had been hell, but finaly This was the night, that Stephanie said she would meet me, and I was really happy.
"Hey, Hunter can we talk to you for a second?"Roaddogg said, as I was starting to leave, out of the house to see Stephanie.
"What?you've already told me how crazy I was what do you want now?" I asked, him, grabbing my keys.
"Wait." he said. We both sat down on the couch. "I just wanted to say that if you're really serious about being with this woman...I'm sorry." he said.
"Alright." I said smiling. "I forgive you." I said, as we shook hands.tttt "So, what are you waiting for, go and talk to her!" he said.
I smiled, "I'll be back in a few minutes." I said, as Jesse opened the door for me, and I left to find Stephanie.
Even though I hated sneaking around, I have to admit, it was fun, it was like being in highschool all over again, except for I really liked the girl I was with.
I went outside up to the Mcmahon office room, and went around to her window, and when I saw Vince and Shane leave, I climbed up on her fire exscape.
I saw her in there, so I tapped on the window. She then saw me, and opened the window. "What are you doing here?" she asked me, as I climbed in.
"I had to talk to you." I said.
"About what?" she said as she whispered, and closed the door.
"This." I said, and grabbed her and kissed her hard. She started to push me away, but she ending up kissing me back, untill she suddenly stopped.
"Listen you came so you could talk, not so you could manipulate me into kissing you." she said.
"And we will talk, I'm going to tell you the truth..Ok?" I said.
"I'm listening." Stephanie said folding her arms.
"Ok, the night, I saw you cring at the club, I thought it would be great to use you to get to Vince, So I started flirting with you, and we started dating...but then I saw how Vince and Shane, and Test were hurting you, so I wanted to be there for you, and the more we were together, and I realized that I needed someone, that's when I realized, that I love you, but I still had not told X-Pac, or Roaddogg yet, that the bet was off, and that's why he got on top of the bar and said that, he was also drunk... and that's the truth... I screwed up, but I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, It was so stupid, what I did, and I'm sorry, I'd take back everything that I did to hurt you if I could...do you forgive me?" I said to her, I grabbed her hand.
She looked again, and then started to say something, but somebody knocked on the door.
"Oh My god, that's Daddy." Stephanie shriked.
"Daddy?" I said.
"Yeah, look you got to hide." she said, as I nodded, and she pushed me in her closet. She closed the door, and then went over to answer the door.
"Hi Daddy." Stephanie said, as Vince walked in looking supicious.
"Hi princess, who were you just...talking to?" he asked.
"Um...myself, you know just getting ready for the wedding."Stephanie lied.
"Well, great." Vince said. "You know it's really great that you're finaly getting married." Vince said, and with that he kissed her forehead, and walked out of the room.
I then came out of the closet, and laughed.
"Wow, that was a close one." I whispered.
"Listen, you have to go." she said.
"No, wait...I what are you going to do?" I asked her.
"About what?" she asked.
"About us." I answered, as I held her hand.
Stephanie frowned, and looked up at the wall.
"There isn't going to be an 'us' Hunter, next week I'm going to marry Andrew, and become his wife." Stephanie said. She gulped when she said because she knew that I would be angry, and she didn't love him.
"You can't marry him, I won't let you, wanna know why, because your heart belongs to me, that kiss just proved it." I said.
Stephanie looked back down to me.
"No, Hunter don't do this to me, I've said it before there really is no other choice, you hurt me, so I went back to Andrew and he forgave me, and now our wedding is back on." Stephanie said before she turned around.
I walked over to her neck.
"You don't really mean that do you?"I asked.
There was an akward silence.
"I love you, and I know you love me, and I'm not going , stop loving, you, or watch you be with another man, who hurts you, I don't care what I have to do to be with you." I said.
"You love me don't you?" I asked.
I could hear her cring.
"Yes." she whispered.
"Do you forgive me?" I asked.
"Yes." she whispered.
"Then we have to be together." I said "Then what are we going to do?" she whispered, as she turned around.
I touched her hair, and then her chin. "You're so beautiful, you know that...if we want to be together we have to do something that will totaly piss Vince off so much that he leaves, the WWF, if that's what you want." I offered.
We sat on the couch together. "I want Vince out of my life, for good...but how?" she asked, as she rubbed my face with her hand.
"I think I know how." I said "How?" she asked.
"We should get married." I said.
She looked at me like she was shocked. "We can't do that, when? where? how?" she asked smiling.
"Next week...next week the federation is going to Vegas...we can do it there." I said.
She smiled. "But...uh...how?" she asked.
"Well, you know Triple H always has a plan." I said, making her laugh. "Yes I know." She said. "You and I are going to pretend fight all this week, alright then before your wedding, I'm going to show a home video saying that we were already married, but you're going to be uncontious in the car, it'll be great!" I said.
Stephanie smiled, "That would be awesome...but you'd have to hire a person to film it...and I'd have to fake tears, and get my friends to throw mw a shower, to look like I was drunk, that, night." Stephanie said, as I got up.
"Good ideathen I'll set up a match at Armegeddon, that's the next pay per view, you know." she said. "Are you sure?" I asked her.
"About what?" she said, as she got up, I noticed that she wasn't wearing her ring, but she did have on a light purple tube top, and white tennis skirt, with a tennis bracelet.
"I don't want to push you into anything." I said.
She smiled.
"I love you." she reminded me, as she put her hand on my face, we got closer , and closer, untill we were kissing. I pulled away from her for a second.
"Listen, I don't want for anyone else to catch me here, so why don't you, come by my hotel room, later tonight, after Smackdown...I want you to meet Dx." I said, as I started to leave, "Wait, Hunter." she said. "Do you think they'll really want to see, me?" she asked.
"Of coarse, why wouldn't they?" I asked her.
"Oh I don't know because you know I'm Vince's daughter." Stephanie said sarcasticly.
"That dosen't matter to me anymore...so it won't matter to them, alright?" I said, before I kissed her. She smiled. "Ok." she said, before she opened the window, and I climbed back out.
I smiled, as I left, because I was so happy.
Now the only problem would be to get X-Pac to get used to Stephanie, Roaddogg had, but that wouldn't be hard...that's what I thought. But again, I was wrong.
Later That Night My handicap match aginst The Dudley Boys really took a tole on me, even though X-Pac helped me, which caused a disqualification, My back was hurting really badly that night, I had always had back problems, and I damned Vince McMahon for it. Never having a night off in a year, that's wasn't a mistake.
But I remembered that Stephanie was coming over that night, so I felt a little better. And just remembered, and hoped that Vince McMahon would leave as soon as he found out, that me and Stephanie were together.
Eight more days.
Eight more days.
Eight more days.
"So, Steph's coming over to see you?" teased Roaddogg as I looked out the window and waited for her. "Yeah." I said. "So." "Alright, man, alright, I've just never seen you like this, you really care about her, don't you?" he asked,
I smiled.
"Yeah...she's really something special." I said.
"I'm happy for you man." Roaddogg said. "Thanks." I said.
"I wish I could say the same thing about X-Pac though." said Roaddogg.
"He'll come around, he dosen't have a choice." I said, as I finaly sat down, only to hear the doorbell ring.
"I'll get it." I said,a s I got up and went over to the door, I found myself, getting very nervous, even though I'd seen her a hundread times. And I noticed that was smiling alot more than I usualy was, I was very happy, that me and Stephanie were finaly going to be together.
I opened the door, and she came in.
"Hello." She said.
"Hey." I said as we kissed quickly, and I put my arm around her, Hey Jesse, this is Stephanie." I said, as he got off the couch, and shook her hand.
"Nice to meet you, you can call me Jesse, or Roaddogg, Roadie, whatever." Roaddogg said, shaking her hand.
"I'm Steph, and that's all I go by." Stephanie said, shaking his hand,a s the three of us laughed.
He then stood back and looked at us. "Woa, H, you actually look nice." he joked.
"Haha." I said.
"You too, Steph...you know you guys are a real nice pair." he said.
Stephanie and I smiled.
"Thank you." I said as I kissed her forehead.
"And as soon as X-Pac comes down, we want to make an annoucment to make to you guys." I said.
"Ok, Sean GET DOWN HERE!" Roaddogg yelled.
AS we sat on the couch, and I asked her if she wanted anything.
She said no, so we waited for a few minutes untill Sean came down, and then, I don't know how it happened, with Jesse at the bottom of the stairs, but we started making out, that's when X-Pac came down.
"Hey what's up man...woa, look at the love birds, already and it aint even spring." he said, as we stopped.
"Yeah, funny, look this is Stephanie." is said, as we stood up.
"Hi." X-pac said, not friendly.
"So, this annoucement?" asked Roaddogg, as he got up to answer a ringing phone.
"What annoucment?" asked Sean.
"Well, our annoument, is..." I started.
"Wait, why don't you tell us, all, all of DX!" Roaddogg said excited.
"No, That phone call, it was just Billy Gunn! He's back from injury, and he wants us to meet us at this new bar!" Roaddogg said happily.
"Now way, Gunn is back ?" said X-Pac, as he jumped out of his chair.
Stephanie looked up at me, I guess expecting for me to get excited also, but I wans't, this prevented a problem for me, because no one knew this but I was the reason, that Billy Gunn was gone all this ime for injury. About 6 months ago, Billy had a match against Rikishi, at that time, he and I had gotten into a little argument, so I asked, Rikishi, to really give it to him, in a DQ match, and unfortunetly, he was hurt more than I thought he would be, and I'm sorry for it, I didn' mean it, I also knew that Billy felt as strong about the McMahon Family as X-Pac did, and it absolutely no be easier to get him to get used to Stephanie.
And do all this, with Vince, Test, and Shane breathing down my neck, I hope I survive this month, and I hoped, that things would get better, and little did I know they would be more spontaneous, and surprising than anything.
