Night before the Wedding
It was the night before John and Jenna's wedding, and Jenna couldn't be more excited. Instead of having a regular bachelorette party, Jenna wanted to have a slumber party with her good friend and Maid of Honor, Maria. She and Maria had only known each other since John's return at the Royal Rumble, but she couldn't think of anyone better for the job.
"Maria, I'm so glad you came!", Jenna exclaimed as she let her red headed friend through the door of her and John's house.
"Jenna, the slumber party was such an awesome idea!", Maria said excitedly bursting through the door and giving her friend a hug.
The girls got Maria's stuff settled in the guest bedroom and were soon back in the living room in their pajamas.
"So Jenna you have to tell me, are you nervous?", Maria asked as she immediately dug into the popcorn.
"A little bit but not really. John and I have had a crush on each other since like I was a junior in high school, and its just so surreal that tomorrow I am actually going to marry him. Maria, I can honestly tell you I have not been this happy in a long time."
"Awww…that is so sweet. Speaking of Mr. Cena, where is he tonight?"
"He is at his mom and dad's house with his brothers."
"Sounds like fun!", Maria said sarcastically.
"Yeah, John said that there will probably be a bunch of rough housing. I mostly feel sorry for John's mom", Jenna said smiling.
"I do too!", Maria said giggling. "Speaking of his brothers, which one is the best man?"
"Steve", Jenna said as she went to the refrigerator to grab more sodas. "John thought it kind of made sense to make Steve the best man since he kind of introduced us."
"Did he really? I didn't know that. Tell me the story of how you guys met again."
"You don't know the story?", Jenna asked.
"Just tell me again. I love hearing stories."
"Well, Steve and I were good friends in high school, and we still are friends to this day. Anyway, when I was in high school, my mom and dad divorced and she just up and left, leaving me to live with my dad. That is when my dad started beating me, a lot of times to a bloody pulp.", Jenna said recalling the memories and starting to form tears in the corners of her eyes.
"Oh my gosh I am so sorry! You don't have to continue if you don't want to."
"No, its ok", Jenna said smiling. "Anyway, Steve found out, and there were a lot of nights I spent on the Cena couch until my dad was arrested and moved in with my aunt. Anyway, I got to know John pretty well, about 5 or 6 years ago, John asked me on a date and ended up sleeping together. He also left me that night."
"He did!", Maria asked in shock.
"Yeah. It absolutely killed me. John told me just recently he did that because he was scared of how fast he was falling for me. So, fast forward 5 years later, John went to Birmingham to have his shoulder surgery, and I happen to be the attending nurse with his surgeon. We caught up, and as they say, the rest is history!"
"That is an awesome story! Not everyone gets that second chance."
"I know, and Maria, I am so glad we did. After that one night, I swore I would hate him forever. I even met someone else when I moved to Birmingham and we eventually got engaged, but John was always in the back of my head. The ironic thing is we broke off the engagement about a month before John came for his surgery."
"Wow. Why did the engagement get broken off?"
"As simple as it sounds, we just grew apart. We dated for about a year and we just started growing apart after we got engaged. We both sat down one night and talked about our relationship and mutually decided to split. No affairs, just a simple split."
Maria and Jenna continued talking about past relationships and current WWE gossip, and before the girls knew it, it was one in the morning.
"I can't believe how late it is!", Maria said standing up off the couch yawning. "I think its time to crash if you don't mind."
"No, I totally agree. We are both getting our hair done at 8, so we need to get some sleep."
"Alright, good night Jenna", Maria said hugging her friend and headed up the stairs.
Jenna was soon in her own bedroom and was kind of lonely, since it was the first time she was sleeping alone since she and John got back together. That was the reason why she was wearing one of John's t-shirts to bed, so in a sense he was sleeping with her. As she was about to fall asleep, she heard her phone beep on the night stand next to her. A smile grew upon her face when she saw it was a text message from John.
I just wanted to say I love you and can't
Wait to see you tomorrow. See you at the end of
The aisle. Love, John
Jenna's smile was even wider as she read the message. It amazed Jenna how much love was shared between the two, and their wedding would be a great example of their love. Jenna had never been so excited about anything in her life and the thought of her marrying her best friend brought Jenna to tears.
John-
You have no idea how excited I am
For tomorrow. I can't wait to marry you! I love you so much!
Jenna
As she closed her phone, Jenna closed her eyes and crashed immediately. Only good dreams were going through her head-the day she and John first met, the day they got back together and the day he proposed. Jenna soon fell asleep with a smile upon her face.
