Amy emerged from Cena's room with a tear stained face and disheveled appearance.
She leaned against the wall, letting out a breathe.
What am I going to do now? She thought to herself. Go to my room, wait I don't have a room. Oh wait, yeah I do, sharing one with Lil.
Lita almost slapped her forehead. Lilian was going to pick on her mercilessly. Well Amy wouldn't let her, because right now she wanted to kill people.
Amy made her way from Cena's room to her and Lilian's.
She was about to search herself for the keycard, but didn't have to as the door opened.
"Well young lady you have a lot of explaining to do." Lilian Garcia said as she opened the door allowing Amy to come in, but the lecture did not stop there.
"Yes you do, missy. You had us both worried to death."
"No offense Candy but I think you were a little to preoccupied by your boy toy to notice my absence."
Candice's nose wrinkled from her place in the chair by the bed, but she did smile.
"Okay maybe you're right, but we were worried."
"Yes, young lady we were. So where were you?"
"I was umm…ahh.."
"The umm ahh I will take to mean you spent the night in John Cena's room, because I saw you leave with him. I know you didn't' go back to Edge."
At the mention of his name, Amy clammed up as she came to take a seat on the extra un-slept in bed.
"I'm sorry, Amy. So really what happened?"
"Well, we, umm.."
"You what?" Candice asked once more jumping into the conversation.
"Well, I slept with him."
"Oh really. That's umm good."
Lilian's expression was enough to make Amy want to laugh, which she needed after her morning.
"Yes. I slept with him then he made me cry and feel cheap."
"What? Where is he, do you want us to beat him up?" Lilian said as she rose quickly, followed by Candice.
Amy started to laugh uncontrollably.
Lilian and Candice shared a look. Had their friend finally lost it?
"Ames are you okay?" Candice said walking towards her friend who was now rolled over on her side, laughing even harder.
She finally stopped laughing as tears began to pour down her face.
"No. I'm not that's what's so funny."
The pair once more shared a look as Candice came to sit down one side of her friend, with Lilian coming to rest on the other.
"Then what's funny?" Lilian asked her.
"The image of you two beating up John Cena."
"What you don't think we can do it?" Candice asked.
"No I think you could that's why its so funny."
At that all three women burst out laughing, but after a few minutes the need to catch their breathe became necessary.
"Okay, so let me get this little recap for my sake so I can understand." Candice said. "You broke up with Edge last night after Raw, then you were supposed to be sharing a room with Lilian, but because we went out, you and Cena got into a fight, then found what common ground? And you slept with him, then he made you feel like crap and now you're here?"
"Yeah, pretty much."
"Nice break down Candy." Lilian said.
"So what are we going to do?"
"What do you mean?"
"Well what do you want us to do to John? I don't mind getting Chris to beat him up and I'm sure one of Lilian's many admires would kick his ass for him for you."
Amy smiled, but shook her head.
"I just want to forget I slept with him and go home and recuperate then go talk to Stephanie."
"Well that sounds like a plan. Do you want to come home with me?" Lilian asked.
"No. I well, Nora called me last night after Raw. Apparently she and Stephanie are cooking something up. So who knows."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"Well that's good." Candice said.
"Yeah maybe you girls will have something to do other than be arm pieces and pieces of meat." Lilian said.
"Yeah. Who knows what the WWE has in store for us."

"Dad, thanks for meeting with me." Stephanie McMahon said as she walked into her father's hotel suite.
Stephanie had taken a red eye flight from Greenwich the night before. She had received a call from Nora Greenwald, a person she had been planning on calling. She was tired of the way the women's divisions were getting thrown to the dogs.
She was going to do something about it and first the meant discussing her ideas with here father.
"Of course sweetheart. I'd do anything for you. You know that. So what is this idea you have to talk to me about?"
Vince asked as he moved to a chair and motioned for Stephanie to take one as well.
"Well to be honest dad I want to rebuild the women's divisions on all the rosters. I mean we've got a decent one going on Raw, but Smackdown is a shambles. I mean you fired Christy and well the recent hires haven't been exactly sparkling. I have already taken the liberty of calling Nora Greenwald and well I want to take a more active role on television once more."
Vince sat back and nodded his head.
"That's wonderful sweetheart, but you have to tell me more to convince me. I know you think the women's division is slack, but I think it's going just well. Well have the good viable wrestlers in Victoria and Trish, we have arm candy in Melina and Lita and well we have eye candy in all the divas but especially in Candice and Ashley and well Trish."
"Yeah dad, about Trish, I am sick of her and I know the public is. And believe it or not there are women who are fans of wrestling and well they want to see more than the T & A action of Mickie James coming on to Trish. Frankly I think Trish's spotlight needs to be illuminated elsewhere. I am tired of her. I want to push someone to the fore front which is why I want to propose the Women's title go inter-promotional and we begin to build up the women's division on both rosters and that I become the new GM of both shows."
Vince's hands were now steepled.
"Well sweetie good ideas, but "
"No buts dad. I want to be on TV again. You know it would be excellent. We need to have a more active role once again on TV in an even more active role than previously and what better way than to announce me as the new GM of Raw and Smackdown?"
"Well Stephanie, we are going to name you GM of Raw, you now that. And you also know we are planning on working with the women's storylines, I just don't see why the rehire of Nora is necessary or why we need to worry with Smackdown. Our flagship is Raw so why not focus our attention and energy on it?"
"Because dad, we have wrestlers on both rosters who need attention and pushes. You hire people you believe will be good wrestlers right? Well then why not use that and make them all superstars? It says so on our website. So why not let me and creative worry about things and you go back to Boca Raton and have fun with mom?"
"Young lady I resent that. Now you have good ideas, but you still have yet to convince me or tell me what you really have in mind."
"Well dad, why don't you get more comfortable while I tell you what my idea is exactly?"
