"I thought you guys said she would be here?" Shawn asked. He was sitting on the couch next to Kim while Brittney was seated on the floor in front of them. She was holding a big white bowl full of popcorn and had a bottle of coke next to her. She was wearing the tiniest shorts Shawn had ever seen with a matching blue sports bra.

"She'll be here," Kim commented. "Just have a little faith," she joked.

"You know I got that sweetie," he grinned grazing his lips against her cheek.

"Oh wow. You two should get a room," Kelly commented. A second later the door bell rang and Kim jumped out of her seat.

"Sweetie you could have let Brittney get the door," Shawn whined.

"I'm sorry but I'm the one who invited her over. It would be rude for the hostess not to answer." She hurried across the room to the door opening it to find Allison standing there in her Miami Dolphins sweats and a tank.

"Hi. Uh…" Kim cut her off by pulling her inside the house and giving her a big hug.

"Damn Kim. Can she actually get into the house good?" Brittney exclaimed. Kim let Allison go and shuffled her into the living room. She was immediately greeted by Brittney, Kelly, and one of the most beautiful men she'd ever laid eyes on. She had no idea how long she had been staring but she was knocked out of her trance by a flying pillow.

"What the…?"

"Sorry but your face was just too funny," Brittney laughed. "Since Kim is also at a lost for words, the guy that you were staring at intently with a shred of longing is the real Shawn Michaels. He's her hubby-to-be." Kim eased past Allison and sat back down on the couch next to Shawn. He kissed her cheek and they both grinned up at Allison.

"Wow. Uh…congrats you two," she said nervously. How in the hell did she…? He's got to be like twice her age but still, he's so fine!

"The look on your face is of one that's concerned," Kelly commented.

"Well uh…"

"I take it your mind is slightly baffled about the age difference between the two of them?"

"Well…"

"It's quite alright. You see it's actually a funny story."

"One that's totally uncalled for at the moment," Kim said quickly.

"I think it fits the occasion," Kelly retorted.

"Fine," Kim mumbled.

"You see Allison, Shawn is also a WWE wrestler and in case you haven't figured it out by now, he's been wrestling ever since…probably before I was even thought about."

"Hey! Go easy on me," he whined. "I can't help it if age has caught up with me."

"Oh shush. Anyway, the first time Kim saw him on TV she fell head over heels for him."

"Kelly that's so cheesy," Brittney laughed.

"It's my story and I'll tell it the way that I want to!" she snapped. No one else dared to say a word. "Now then, she eventually fell in love with him and the sport of wrestling. Since then, she has never missed a night of Monday Night Raw."

"I didn't…" Kim started but Kelly ignored her.

"You see, most people would say that she was more or less just infatuated with him but as fate would have it, it decided to test the bonds of that love. Well, while Kim was vacationing in Miami last year, she met Shawn, who was also vacationing in Miami. Well, it was the love story that would stand the test of time. It beats Disney 10-1. It was truly love at first sight!" Kelly exclaimed. Everyone in the room just stared at Kelly as if she were crazy.

"Um…Kelly, I don't mean to sound rude but how is it that you know all of this when I know I haven't told you anything of the sort? Also, you're Brittney's cousin and you live here…which means you don't live where I live and there's no possible way you could have known…unless someone ran their mouth and told you this hell of a tale," Kim asked, eyebrows raised in curiosity. Brittney proceeded to shove more popcorn into her mouth and just shrugged.

"Whatever. You know you liked my tale. Anyway Allison, that's pretty much the gist of it although I'm sure Brittney will inform you of all the juicy late night rendezvous they had later."

"WHAT?!" Kim exclaimed.

"Not now Kim! It's almost time!" Brittney beckoned for Allison to join her on the floor while Shawn and Kim took over the couch. Law and Order was gone and it was time for Raw!

--RAW is WAR--

Cena sat backstage alone watching the show on one of the monitors. He was making his big return tonight so it would much later before he'd actually go out in front of the crowd. Any other night this wouldn't bother him but tonight was different. He had butterflies in his stomach just thinking about it. It wasn't that he didn't want to go out there in front of the fans. Hell, that's the main reason he'd worked so damn hard to get better but now it seemed that things were different. He found himself caring not so much about the people in crowd but mainly of the people sitting back at his condo watching from the big screen. One of those people was possibly the girl he'd come to care deeply for in such a small amount of time. Cena placed his head in the palm of his hands and sighed. Tonight…tonight he was going to do something that would either ruin him for life, or possibly earn him more fans. Either way he knew that it was no turning back now. If he didn't do something now then he would spend the rest of his life wondering…

"Alright Cena, it's almost time." Matt had come backstage looking for him now that his match against MVP was over.

"Oh, yeah man. I'm coming."

"Hey…are you alright? You look like something's bothering you," Matt inquired.

"Uh, it's nothing. I'll uh…catch you later," he mumbled.

--AA--

Cena's music hit and Brittney 'bout dropped her bowl of popcorn.

"OH HELL YEAH! IT'S CENA!!" she screamed.

"Uh…I never knew Cena excited you so," Kelly frowned.

"Excite me? He could do more than excite me," Brittney teased.

"Oh wow." They all watched as Cena came from behind the curtain sporting his jean shorts, Jordans, Atlanta Falcon's jersey, and a silver chain taking in the mad ovation from the crowd. He just stood there smiling as the fans chanted 'Cena' before rushing down the ramp to the ring. Randy Orton took off running as Cena slid inside the ring. Cena grabbed the mic and proceeded to thank the Raw audience for sticking with him.

"Wow," Allison whispered. Brittney gave her a small nudge and smiled.

"Yeah, it's really something isn't it?"

"Yeah, I…I had no idea he was…famous and then there's the actual wrestling. I had been telling my brother for years that this stuff was fake but I am ashamed of myself. Just watching for the first time tonight has made me see how dangerous all of it can be."

"Yeah and you see how easy it is to get injured but if you don't have the passion for the business then you wouldn't go out there and risk it all to entertain millions of people around the world," Shawn added. "For me, it's more or less that feeling you get when you know that you've given 110 percent and the fans are showing their approval and admiration. However…" Shawn looked over at Kim and planted a kiss on her neck. "I'd give it all up for the woman I love."

"Oh come on!" Brittney huffed. "Can you stop with the sentimentals? Not everyone in this room is engaged you know!"

"Oh stop it! You're with a Hardy Boy so don't give me that!" Kelly snapped.

"We're not 'together' per se, we're just…"

"Really good friends," Kim finished. "Yeah, it always starts out like that but then…stuff happens and well, you end up like me."

"You say that like it's a bad thing."

"Well…if he's already semi-attached then…"

"Oh no sweetie. I refuse to let you go there. My heart belongs to you and no one else," he said sternly. Kim nodded her head before they all turned back to the screen. Cena was finishing up his rant but something seemed wrong. He had a look of pure anguish on his face.

"Did we miss something?" Kelly asked.

"I…don't know," Allison replied. They watched as Cena lifted the mic to his lips and stared directly at the camera.

"So I have something else I'd like to get off my chest. For months I have been at home watching Raw from my big screen. It has been pure hell watching Randy 'Blow Me' Orton prance around here claming to be the greatest champion that's ever lived and as painful as that may have been, it still can't compare to losing a good friend. You know, I've made many mistakes in my life but none of them I'd take back. My mistakes have led me here to the WWE and I wouldn't change a damn thing." There was a thunderous applause but Cena lifted his hand to silence them.

"Yeah, I say this but now I have to wonder whether or not everything I've done is truly worth it. You see, kicking ass on here tonight was all fine and dandy but I felt like a part of me was missing. You guys laugh, but I did not feel as joyous as I thought I would feel weeks ago when I was sitting at home. That being said, I can only think of one thing that's causing me to feel this way and it's…it's Allison." At this, the arena fell to an eerie, hushed silence as they all waited patiently for Cena to continue.

"Allison…baby girl I am sorry. I am admitting right here and right now, in front of millions of people that I have a made a mistake in lying to you. At the time, I thought I was making the right decision but I can clearly see now that it was apparently the wrong one."

"Oh my God," Brittney whispered. I can't believe he's doing this…Maybe he'll tell her…Brittney chanced a glance at Kim and Shawn who were both just staring at the TV with their mouths open.

"Baby girl if you're watching…I just wanted to tell you that…" The crowd erupted into Cena chants again, urging him to finish his story. Cena let out a huge breath before facing the camera again. "Baby girl, I love you and if there's even a chance, a small chance that you might love me too, I'll see you when I get home." And with that he dropped the mic and exited the ring as his music was drowned out by the thunderous applause from the crowd. Brittney, Kelly, Allison, Shawn, and Kim all remained uncomfortably silent.

--

--

They were like that for the next hour. No one said anything about the old episode of Law & Order that had started playing. No one dared suggest that they turn and no one even bothered to ask Allison how she felt. In fact, they all felt slightly intimidated, slightly moved, and slightly frightened. Since none of them had any idea about Cena's speech, they were sure that Allison probably suspected them as being in on Cena's confession. Since they already knew how sensitive she was about these kinds of things, they thought it best to just stay quiet.

When Cena finally walked through the door, it was as though a heavy burden had been lifted. Brittney immediately jumped to her feet and started for the door.

"Uh…great show tonight Cena. We would stay but uh…we have a project to work on. Come on Kelly," she hissed.

"But I…"

"NOW!"

"Fine," Kelly grumbled. She flashed Cena a smiled before quickly heading out the front door. Shawn and Kim stood to their feet as well.

"Hey man. Great show," Shawn said with a grin.

"Thanks buddy. Thanks to you of course."

"Nope. All you boy. Anyway, I'll uh…be back later…maybe. I have to drive my baby back to the hotel. It's dangerous out there you know?"

"Uh…"

"See you later," he grinned. He took Kim by the hand and led her outside leaving Cena and Allison behind.

"So what you think?" Kim asked.

"I don't know. If he doesn't get it right tonight then I just don't know."

"I think he'll be alright," she grinned. "Now as for us…"

"We are going to be terrific. No more bad thoughts. Let's get you back so you can get some rest."

"Alright."

--LOVE--

The door closed behind Cena and all was quiet. He looked across the room and found Allison just sitting on the floor in front of the TV. Her head was down so he couldn't read her face. I hope I haven't made a fool of myself…Oh well, here goes…Cena dropped his bags onto the floor and started across the room towards Allison.

"Baby girl." She held her head up, eyes filled with tears, and saw that he had his hand stuck out. She hesitated for a moment before grabbing his hand letting him pull her to her feet.

"John…"

"Look Allison, I'm sorry ok? I really am sorry and I have been beating myself up about this since the day you left me at the park."

"But John…"

"Allison please…please give me the chance to prove to you that I am trustworthy. Let me still be your friend…" He clutched her hand before bringing it to his lips, planting a kiss on the back of it. "Your protector…" He wrapped his arms around her, pulling her into a warm embrace. Surprisingly, Allison hugged him back squeezing him as though she didn't want to let go. Cena brushed his lips against her cheek and then her ear drawing a sweet sigh from her. "Let me be your lover," he whispered.

Deciding that he'd rather not give her time to protest, Cena lifted Allison from the floor and started carrying her down the hall. She wrapped her arms tightly around his neck and her legs around his waist while he carried her to his room.

When they reached his room, he placed her on the bed and then lowered himself on top of her slowly.

"John…I'm…I don't…"

"I won't hurt you. I could never hurt someone that I love."

--HOT--

"I wonder what's happening with Allison and Cena?" Kim asked. She and Shawn were standing outside her room trying to get the door open.

"Well I don't know, but if Cena's a smart boy then he'll be trying to do what I want to do to you." Kim grinned as she finally got the door open. Shawn followed her inside and without warning, he slammed her gently against the door as it closed.

"Wow. Shawn…I thought you said…"

"I know…I know," he winced, "But I can't help it. You're so damn delicious and I…" He stopped mid-sentence and let out a sigh. "This is wrong. I can't do that to you or myself. I promised myself that I would behave and so…" Kim slowly traced his lips with her tongue as she ran her hands down his chest. Shawn closed his eyes and let out a deep breath.

"What were you saying?" she teased.

"Don't start something you can't finish." His voice was raspy with hunger but he managed to inch away from her a little.

"Okay," she sighed. He turned away and started across the room. "Hey Shawn? Could you help me get out of this bra?" That pretty much did it for him. Shawn hurried back towards the door and pressed his body against hers. He lowered his head and started kissing her neck while her hands roamed freely across his back. His hands tugged at the waistline of her pj's before he finally backed away and yanked them down. She quickly stepped out of her pants before he pressed her against the wall again.

"Stop me," he whispered running his lips all around her neck.

"Never," she whimpered.

"You have to. You know I can't stop myself," he pleaded. He looked into her eyes but she wouldn't give in. She only smiled and licked his lips again making his arousal worsened. "Fine then," he grinned.

--O.O--

Cena bent his head and started planting slow, lingering kisses on her neck. Allison moaned with pleasure at the feel of his lips; it was music to Cena's ears. He trailed his tongue along the side of her face making a path towards her ear. He grazed it with his teeth while his hands started inching up her sides.

"This is the point where you say yes or no," he whispered. His hands lingered at her sides, his lips teasing her earlobes while he waited for a reply.

"Do you…do you really love me?" she whispered. Cena lifted his head so that he could look her in the eye.

"Yes…I do baby girl. I love you very much." For the first time all night, she could genuinely smile. She pressed her lips hard against his and he let his tongue probe her mouth, kissing her hungrily. His hands wasted no time sliding up her shirt feeling around for her soft breasts. He squeezed them gently drawing a low moan from her.

"Cena…"

"I hear ya baby girl." He sat up and yanked the pants off of her all in one go. She giggled at the impatient act which only turned him on even more. "You should giggle more often." He dropped to his knees and began running his hands up her legs until he reached her thighs.

"J…John? What are you…?"

"I'm going to give you everything you need and more," he whispered. He grabbed her thighs and jerked her towards him. The sudden shift made Allison squeal but when she felt his lips graze her inner thigh she immediately fell back into heaven. His lips inched even higher until they reached the lace of her underwear.

"Cena…" He only chuckled as his tongue followed the lace down and around stopping at her sex. His tongue teased her sex through the lace playfully and he could feel her body started to shake ever so lightly. Just what I want baby girl. He slid her panties off and tossed them to the side before covering her with his mouth.

--Um...--

Kim unbuckled Shawn's jeans and helped him get out of them before pulling his body back to hers.

"My, my aren't we aggressive tonight?" he teased. She glared at him but only for a second. She could feel his arousal in between her legs and it was driving her insane.

"Shawn…Shawn please…"

"I love hearing you say my name like that," he whispered. "Tell me you want me."

"I…" He ran a hand up her body until he reached her breast. He squeezed one gently, pinching the tender erect nipple, forcing another moan from her lips.

"How about I play with you for a while?" he teased.

"Shawn…I could just kill you." She stared at him, her eyes misty with desire.

"But you can't because you are completely and totally at my mercy," he whispered. He slid his body up and down hers, his arousal grazing her stomach. With each movement, he was setting her on fire and that's just what he wanted. Without warning, he grabbed her by the waist and lifted her slightly before thrusting inside of her, feeling the warmth that he'd been missing for weeks contract around him.

"SHAWN!" she screamed, but he covered her mouth silencing her.

"Mmm…you shouldn't scream so loudly. Don't wanna wake the neighbors," he chuckled. "You better hang on tight sweetheart because I get the feeling we're going to be on this wall for quite sometime."

--SCREAM--

Cena's tongue caressed her sex lightly before he allowed his fingers access. Allison cried out as he entered her but after a while her soft cries turned to moans and then whimpers. The whimpers let Cena know that she was ready for him and he was only too happy to oblige. He slid his body over hers and parted her legs in the process settling himself comfortably in between. She stared up at him and Cena couldn't stop his heart from pounding. The last time Allison was in his bed, she looked scared to death. Her face was pale and her eyes reeked of nothing but fear…fear that was no longer there. In fact, a beautiful smile was teasing him as she wriggled her body underneath him.

"Allison…"

"I love you," she whispered. A tear fell down her cheek but he was only too happy to kiss it away.

"I love you too baby girl," he whispered before thrusting inside of her taking her on a journey that she'd never forget.


AN: The longest chapter you'll get so far. Yes, I know. I should be ashamed of myself but I have a confession to make. I am a perve. Not really but I can be from time to time. But you know what? I really don't think I was being a perve. As you can see, I tried to make the scenes a bit innocent you know? I can write straight smut but smut does not fit this story. Shawn and Kim on the other hand…well…they've been through hell and back and it's only going to get worse for them. Te he he So I hope you enjoyed the chapter and I hope you've been enjoying the story so far. The end is nearing. A chapter or two and I'll be done. I am leaving it open for a sequel because when/if I get time, Oh Choices III must be written or 1smartblonde will kick my butt. Oh and BTW, I have another story that I am writing. It's an Eric Bishoff/Stephanie McMahon fic. Yeah I know but if you're fans of HHH, HBK, Stacy, or Eric, I think you should check it out. It kinda ties in with this story and Oh Choices. I need to rename them all since they are technically apart of a series but that will come in due time. Love you guys. Sorry about the late update. It's 3 am and I need sleep. REVIEW!
