Chapter 2

Maria awoke the next morning to the smell of fresh cut flowers. She smiled as she snuggled back into her pillow, but the smile was soon replaced with a frown when she realized she didn't have flowers in her room the night before. Her eyes shot open, and to her surprise, she found a bouquet of red roses laying on the pillow next to her, with a note laying next to it. She slowly picked the note up and began to read, dreading what it would say.

My Maria,

You look so beautiful and peaceful sleeping I must say. As pretty as a picture. Maybe I should just hang you up on my wall so I can stare at you til the end of time? Would you like that my love? I know I would.

I saw you fly out of the arena last night, I must say you looked a little upset. If Edge and Lita become a problem for you, I can have them eliminated. Just give me a sign and it will be done. I also wasn't pleased with Cena coming on to you when you were trying to leave. I thought I warned you not to converse with him? No matter. You did well and walked away. That is what I expect. If he approaches you in the future, however, you need to ignore him.

I hope you haven't told anyone about me yet. I don't think that would be a wise decision considering the power I hold. You have no idea who I am, and no way of finding out. But I know who you are, and will find out who you told and you will both pay.

Maria my darling, soon, I will come for you and take you away from this occursed place and we will be together til the end of time. I can't wait, and I hope you can't eather. I'll see you soon.

Until then.

Maria set the letter down and just let the tears flow down her cheeks. How had this creep gotten into her room. He must've had a key. She wanted to tell someone so badly, but yet was afraid to. She knew that John Cena would try and push her into telling what was going on, but for his sake she couldn't. She thought last night that maybe it was a joke, somebody just trying to fool with her, but now she knew for a fact that that wasn't the case.

She slowly ambled her way out of the bed, and made her way to the bathroom for a long hot shower. She needed it this morning. She moaned softly as the hot spray hit her, and relaxed instantly, letting the shower do it's magic.

A few minutes later, she stepped out of the shower, feeling incredibly refreshed. She walked back into the bedroom, and picked up the roses. Walking over to the window, she opened it, and proceeded to toss the roses down to the street below. Smiling with satisfation, she picked up the letter and placed it with the other one at the bottom of her luggage bag, promptly forgetting it. She had a new bout of confidence, and wasn't going to allow this guy to ruin her life.

She dressed in her favorite pink sweatpants and a white baby-t. She brushed her long blond hair, and letting it fall loosly around her face applyed her makeup. Then, slipping on her tennis shoes, she walked out of her hotel room and down to breakfast.

Once down in the dining room, she seached for any familiar faces. Her eyes locking on John Cena, she debated wether she should sit with him or not. She decided against it, and went to the opposite side of the dining room, opting to sit alone.

The champ had seen her come in out of the corner of his eye. Hope flooded through him as he wondered if she'd choose to sit with him. He looked over at her, getting ready to motion her over, when he saw her retreating to the opposite side of the dining room. The smile that had once been on his face changed into a frown. Getting up, he walked over to her, and without asking, sat down across from her.

Maria looked up at him as he sat, meeting her green eyes with his brown. "Morning John," she smiled as she took a sip of her orange juice. "What can I do for you today?"

"Well, I was kinda wondering what had you so upset last night. I've never seen you like that. You looked almost scared, and I was worried," he said. Reaching across the table, he gripped her hand in his and began making small circles on the back of it.

Maria smiled sadly at him before she began, "I guess I'm just scared that something is going to happen to you." She looked down at her hand in his, then back up at him. She took a long pause trying to figure out how to explain why she was scared for him, but he spoke up before she got the chance.

"Baby, don't worry about Adam and Amy. They can't hurt me. I'll be just fine, so turn that frown upside down, and lets give daddy some sugar," he said slyly, giving her a wink.

She blushed slightly, and looked down at her plate. Cena was having none of that, and with his other hand, lifted her chin so she was looking at him. He bent forward, and captured her lips with his, in a gentle yet powerful kiss. Time seemed to stop for the two young people and everyone around them seemed to dissapear. When they broke apart, reality came crashing back around him, as they looked around and realized everyone was staring at them.

Maria rose from her seat and made her way back to her hotel room, the champ not far behind. She knew he was behind her, but kept up her pace, hoping to get to the shelter of her room before anyone else saw her with him. She just hoped her stalker hadn't seen the interaction between them. She didn't know what he was capable of, but didn't want to find out eather.

She reached her room, and had just gotten the door open when John caught up with her and pushed his way into the room. She tried to resist him coming in, but knew it was no use and let him in, shutting the door behind him. She plopped down on the couch, and sighed deeply.

"Ria, what was all that about? We kissed, and then you just got up and left," he asked, hurt and confusion in his voice. "If I did something wrong, I'm sorry, but I thought that the kiss was something we both wanted."

"John, it's not that I didn't want it, I just don't want everyone seeing it I guess. The truth is, I like you. I like you a lot, and I have for awhile. You didn't do anything wrong, you just took me by surprise is all." She patted the spot next to her on the couch.

"Well, if that's all it is, I can accept that. I like you a lot too. Now, where were we?" John said as he sat down and took her into his arms.

Their lips crashed together in a fevered passion, each fighting for dominance. Maria relented, and let him take control, feeling the sensations that he was causing her body, and moaning slightly into his mouth.

His hands roamed her body, stroking and caressing her every curve, getting familiar with each and every nook and cranny. When he heard her moan, his mind went wild, and he lost control of his actions. He picked her up swiftly, and carried her to the bed, never breaking their heated kiss.

Maria realized what they were about to do almost immediatly, and knew she wasn't ready for this. She reluctantly broke their kiss as he placed her on the bed. "Honey, we can't do this yet. I'm sorry, but it's too soon. Please don't be mad at me."

"Baby, I'm sorry for pushing you. I heard you moan, and I kinda lost control. You know I would never force myself on you right? I wanna take this slow, and not do anything that's going to upset you." He sat down next to her on the bed. "There are other things we can do. How about we go to the amusement park across town? That'd be fun."

"Sure, sounds great. We have to ride every single roller coaster though. I love those things!"

"You got it babe, you got it."

With that, the walked hand in hand out the door to spend a day full of fun.

Meanwhile in the hotel, Maria's stalker was breaking into her room. How dare that little bitch kiss Cena again! After he had warned her what would happen too none the less. She would pay dearly for her indiscression. He knew they had gone out for awhile, so he had plenty of time to set up her punishment. He smiled wickedly, the little slut wouldn't know what hit her.
