Nikki continues to walk down the hall, she enters the room and everybody turns around with a gasp on their face, everybody is shocked to see her face, a face they haven't seen in over 4 months.
She tries to ignore the glances, but she can't, they follow her everywhere she goes, she even hears whispers about her in the room, "I heard she got pregnant with 'The' John Cena," a girl whispers in the corner whispers. "Wait didn't she have a miscarriage," the girl behind Nikki quietly says.
Nikki remains calm, her face turns into a bright red color, but she keeps her mind blank, in order to keep the tears away.
The only voice running through her head, is John's, she hears him telling her that she needs to be strong enough, she takes a seat in the back of the room, she looks around the room and watches everybody, the older people she knows and the newer younger ones she doesn't know.
She calms her mind down, and she finally settles in, she pays attention in order to improve her wrestling skills.
Brie and Roman sit there, they both pick up there fork and play around with it, while they wait for their plates to come.
"Aren't you glad we came, we had to make this dinner date up," Roman says to Brie, as he looks into her eyes.
Brie looks up from the forks, she smiles and can't help but to blush, "I am glad, and what... why are you looking at me that way," Brie says as she laughs, only to come back up to meet his eyes.
Roman finally breaks contact and let's out a chuckle, "I don't know, I just think you're cute, even when you sit there, and say nothing," Roman says as he mocks her way of sitting.
Brie laughs, she then mocks his way of sitting too, "Really, well, how sweet of you," Brie says as they both bring their hands up onto the table, to hold hands.
Brie and Roman finally get there plates of food, "Thank you," both Brie and Roman say, in sync.
"This looks good," Roman says as he looks down onto his plate.
Brie picks up her fork, "Yeah, its...," Brie unexpectedly pauses, she looks over Roman's shoulder, and she is surprised to see, coincidentally Daniel Bryan, about to take a seat with his date.
Roman looks up at Brie, "What was that all about that," Roman says noticing the change in behavior from Brie.
Brie, unnatural, quickly brings her eyes back to Roman, "What, oh, I mean, sorry, I just remembered that I left... my headphones at the gym," Brie says, quickly after sipping from her drink.
"Really, huh, I thought I saw them in the car seat, anyways we can just get you new ones, right," Roman says as he continues with his food.
Brie takes her fork, she slightly looks over at Daniel, and she try's to slip down the sit, she subtly crouches down, enough to hide from Daniel, but not to enough for Roman to notice the unusual behavior.
Roman pauses and he puts his fork down, "Brie, what are you doing, it looks like you're hiding from somebody, you're acting weird, is everything fine," Roman says as he starts to look around the in the front of him, but before he can turn around for a back view, Brie pulls him in.
"Wow Roman what cologne are you wearing, you should wear it more often," Brie says grabbing him, in order to keep him from turning around.
Roman laughs and blushes, "Really, Well, I mean I wasn't really feeling it, but you know what, I should use it more often," Roman says as he kisses Brie on the forehead.
Brie smiles, to calm herself down, "Yep, It's working alright, I can really smell the gentlemen part of it, and not at all the angry violence part," Brie says, she continues to eat, but seconds into eating, she forgets about Daniel's presence.
Daniel turns around and notices Brie, he squints and get's up from his seat, "Hey Brie, can I talk to you," Daniel yells as he walks towards Brie.
Brie pauses, she swallows her food in a gulp, and she puts her hand on Roman's hand, she looks up, and for the first time in 3 months, she is seeing the same guy that used to toss her around like rag doll, Daniel Bryan.
Daniel finally get's to them, "So who's the guy Brie," Daniel says standing there while he sarcastically laughs, and shakes his head at her.
Brie can't help but to get a little teary, her eyes can't keep them back, she stands there across Daniel, but in between them is Roman.
Brie and Daniel both stand there, eye to eye, meanwhile Roman waits to cool off, before he meets Daniel face to face. Brie watches both Daniel and Roman, from the side of her eye, she watches Roman get up, she then begins to sweat a little, all while ignoring all of the smack Daniel is talking to the both of them.
Roman finally get's up, he turns around and faces Daniel, "Roman don't," Brie says as she walks over to his side.
"Brie I'm sorry, I have to, he deserves IT," Roman says as he quickly, within a snap of a second, Roman spears Daniel into the table behind them.
Brie yells with fear, as she watches a thunderstorm and a rainbow crash and burn. Brie knows, that at that point, she can't do anything else but call for help, she watches them fight with tears in her eyes.
Melina walks past Stephanie's office, when she notices Aj coming out of the office, Melina ignores while she continues to walk.
"Melina, Melina wait, guess what," Aj says as she catches up to Melina.
Melina turns around, "Hey Aj, what's going on," Melina says as Aj twirls around Melina.
Aj finally stops in front of Melina, "Their making me the next Diva's Champion, which means I'll have a cool storyline with you," Aj says as she continues to skip around Melina.
Melina's eyes widen, "Uhhh, I mean, yay for you, I guess I'm happy for you," Melina says, shocked that after only a week Aj is already scheduled to become Champion.
"I mean you're cool with this, right, it doesn't bother you or anything," Aj says as she puts her arm around Melina's shoulders.
Melina holds the anger back, "No not at all, it doesn't bother me, in fact, I think it'll be an interesting rivalry, great entertainment right, plus you don't remain champion forever right, who knows I might win this back from you, everything comes back full circle right," Melina says as she removes Aj's arm and then walks off.
Aj stands there, while she shakes her head, "Bring it," Aj whispers as she watches Melina walk off.
"Nikki, hey can I talk to you," Vince says as he walks towards Nikki.
Nikki turns around, she looks around, when she finally sees Vince, "Vince, it's you, and sure what's it about," Nikki says as she waits for Vince to walk to her.
"How do you feel about reality shows," Vince says as he hands Nikki a contract.
Nikki raises her eyebrow, not knowing where on earth Vince might take this to, "I like reality shows, I watch them a lot..., why," Nikki says.
"You're going out with John, who is well-known, you are also doing a little modeling right, well that all interested the producers from this reality show, they want you to be part of it and I think you should take the offer," Vince says as he even gives Nikki a pen.
Nikki, still confused, takes the pen, she reads the contract, but before she can even start, she reads the title, "Wait, Real Girlfriends Of Orange County want me on their show, wow I'm left speechless," Nikki says as she continues to scan through the contract.
"Yeah that's the name of it, I'm not real good with memory or with Reality Show names," Vince says as he waits for a respond.
Nikki finally looks up, she then looks back down, she kneels down and signs the contract right there on the concrete floor, "Tell them I'll be there, I guess I'm now officially a Real Girlfriend," Nikki says as she hands over the contract to Vince.
Running Up That Hill by Placebo plays in the background.
Eve drives through the road, she looks ahead, she keeps her eyes on the road but at the same time she thinks about her standing with everybody.
The city night lights gleam on her front window, she watches the people in the city and wonders how they're doing and where their going.
She then sees a group of cheerful friends walking down the sidewalk, which makes her think about the friends she used to have but lost.
Eve brings her focus back to the road, but she can't, the different objects and people keep on reminding her of the problems in her life.
She finally comes to a stop light, crossing the street she sees a girl, a sweet nice girl holding hands with her boyfriend, while she helps an elderly woman walk across.
Eve picks up her phone, she looks through her past texts, she notices the fakeness in her tone and the rudeness.
She get's lost in her own words, her words and actions have finally caught up to her.
Eve keeps on reading without realizing that the light has now changed to red, Eve continues to drive, when she suddenly drops her phone and tries to reach for it.
Before Eve even has the chance to reach down she notices these bright headlights coming from the side of her window and she hears the loud honking too, she looks to the side and stops the breaks with all her god given power.
Eve at this point is startled and her heart is beating louder than ever, she stops for a second to let the rush of adrenaline cool down, but before she can carry on, she sees the headlights again and the honking is louder than the last time, except this time she sadly doesn't dodge the bullet.
The truck slashes through the side of Eve's car, Eve feels the tension, but after that Eve can no longer share anything else, as Eve lays there unconscious in her car while it rolls down the street. The car rolls across the street, people in the street watch as the car loudly stumbles, the cars all stop at once just to look at the dramatic event happening before their eyes.
They all have a story to tell now, that they witnessed a horrible car accident, but Eve on the other hand might not ever have a story again...
