He looked at the time on his Iphone. By now she was probably in her hotel room with Ted.
A knock came to the door and without thinking it twice he got to his feet and hurried to the door. For some reason He had kinda expected to see Maryse, but instead it was Tyla.
"Punk… you need to come with me" She said, her face pale and her expression worried.
" What is it, what's happened" His expression more worried than the young woman's.
" It's Maryse, She's been attacked" Tyla started to try to Pull Punk out of his room.
"She's been attacked"
The words echoed in his ears, Bouncing around in his scull, he stood in the middle of his doorway as if time stood still.
Everything running through his mind; Who, how, what, when, where, Why?
Not Moving a muscle, he took a deep breath, to try and contain his thoughts into one. In vain it worked in a way the only question still on his mind; WHO?
He ran out the door not looking back, Not caring about shoes, anything. Completely forgetting about the young woman, who knew where Maryse was, until he arrived at the elevator, frantically pressing the up button and the down button not knowing where he was going, the one question still running through;
"WHO?"
The elevator finally landed at Punks floor, he went in having to hold the doors for Tyla the young woman who had fallen behind Punk in his frantic rush.
" Which floor" Punk asked his hand still frantically scaling the elevator number pad.
"Floor Six room 435" Tyla said, Her face still pale , her voice still had a worried ring to it.
Punk stood their completely ignoring, the girl who had come to his door. Tapping his foot angrily on the floor angry at himself, for letting this happen to Maryse.
" Where Did it Happen" He asked surprising himself with the amount of anger in his voice.
"Where the elevator is, this floor, Melina, Jo-mo, Dolph and I were the ones who saw what happened, we were coming up in the elevator and the doors were opening, as he connected with her"
Punk looked at her, the anger that had already been built from those three little words, was growing larger by the second.
"Did you catch him?"
She nodded. "As soon as Dolph saw what had happened, he grabbed him immediately. He is now in Dolphs and My room, Morrison's there too, Thats were your going first"
The Elevator doors opened, Punk glanced at the sign on the wall telling him which room numbers were which way, the room number still echoing in his head, 435 was to the left and that was just the way he went, Tyla chasing after him.
Once in front of the door something was holding him back and he couldn't tell what it was, and then he remembered those three words that had brought him too that room;
"She's Been attacked"
He pushed the door open, nothing stopping the door. Once inside he looked around and saw three man, Dolph, John and another one that he could no longer call a man. The one man he had expected to see consoling Maryse.
The 29 year old's bloody face and beaten body told him everything he needed to know. Something snapped in Punk, he stomped over to where he was cowering, grabbed him by the shirt and yanked him up to his worthless feet.
"You son of a bitch" Punk growled unable to control the anger that had built inside of him, he let it all out on the 29 year old, slamming him against the wall, slamming him against anything that looked like it would hurt.
Letting go of his shirt, the younger man tumbled onto the floor, Punk climbed on top of him and delivered blow after blow, busting the younger man open. He stood up, everything that had happened between the Maryse and Ted ran through his mind, and those 3 little words flashed in front of him, and Punk wrapped his tattooed hands around the broken mans neck and squeezed has hard has he could.
"Stop it Punk!" Tyla cried
He felt someone grab him from behind, the rage still inside of him didn't allow him to un-hook his hands from the man's neck. "Punk, Stop it! You are going to kill him" Dolph shouted finally being able to remove Punks grasp from Ted.
Punk turned around to Dolph and John searching both sets of eyes, trying to make sure he hadn't done anything more than just hit her. From the look in Johns eyes, he was reassured of what he wanted to know.
He spun back around to Ted and delivered one last blow, Punk pulled him up by his shirt one last time;
"Why, Why'd you do it? I don't get it? what did she ever do to you" Punk glared deep into his blue blue eyes searching for the answer. All he saw was blue and nothing else.
"wouldn't you like to know" Ted smirked spitting in Punks face.
Punk released him, letting him fall back to the ground and writhe in pain, he kicked him in the ribs one more time before turning around and asking Tyla where Maryse was.
She gave him the number of the room that Maryse was in and walked out.
"Punk!"
He kept walking, even when Tyla was walking by his side and was trying to get his attention.
"Punk, stop walking!" She stood in front of him and placed her hands against his chest, forcing him to stop. "Maryse, she's your best friend, so you know this better than anyone. She is proud, prouder than any of the WWE divas. What he did, hurt her, not only physically, but mentally, especially as she doesn't know why he did it. She hasn't talked to anyone and she doesn't want to see anyone." Punk listened and took it all in when she was done he shook his head. "Okay, Okay but I'm going to see her, no matter what, I need to"
"I just needed you to know" Tyla said moving out of his way, he continued on his way to the room Maryse was in.
The door wasn't open like the other, he knocked a few times and waited, the wait seemed forever and Melina finally answered the door.
"Maryse?" Punk asked pushing his way into the room.
"She is in the bathroom, with one of the Bella's, she's pretty upset..."
Before she could finish her sentence Punk was making his way to where Maryse was, trying the door it was locked.
"Didn't 'T' tell you, she's upset and doesn't want to see anyone not even Mr. Pipebomb, make you laugh"
Knocking on the bathroom door, he had to wait again but finally one of the Bella twins opened the door. He could see Maryse sitting on the floor hugging her knees, the twin motioned for him to wait outside.
He didn't want to wait, even though the door was wide open and he could just walk right in, something was holding him back. His wait seemed forever and when the twin came back and mumbled a sorry, the thing that was holding him back before went right away, impulse kicked in and he jerked the door open and went straight to Maryse.
He strode over to Maryse, who was sitting on the bathroom floor hugging her knees, he sat down next to her and turned her face so he could see the damage, Her eye was already swollen.
Punk pulled her in for a hug
" Why couldn't I see he was a fake" Maryse sobbed into Punks chest.
" I Guess we only see what we want to see, and he seemed like the perfect guy." Punk ran his tattooed hands through her long blond hair consolingly, trying to let her know that it'll all be okay." But c'mon they don't get any faker than a Douche bag" Punk teased trying to lighten the mood unsuccessfully" and that's just what is he for doing this to you, your one of the proudest people I know and he's made you so vulnerable" Punk pulled her in closer.
" I just want to know why? What did I do" Maryse sobbed looking into Punks eyes.
" You know there are guys out there, that are better for you than Ted, Guys that are real for one thing" Punk cupped her face with one hand, wiping away some of her tears.
"You think there's a guy out there for me" Maryse perked up.
"out there, in here" Punk looked at her awkwardly.
"ehh ohhh, really"
"Yeah, sure, guys like Me" Punk smiled awkwardly
" Really" Maryse smiled, chewing on her bottom lip.
" You know Punk, we better hurry!" Maryse smirked.
"hurry where?" Punk looked at her confused.
"you'll see," Maryse got up pulling Punk up with her.
As they walked in hand in hand, Punk in suit, Maryse in her black voluminous dress. All the WWE Superstars and Divas looked at them with shock Kelly Kelly breaking the silent shock;
"It's finally happened she's dating that loser of a WWE champion. Maryse Ouellet and CM Punk, are dating!"Kelly Pointed at them and laughed.
The rest of the Superstars and Divas cheered. Punk and Maryse awkwardly smiled at each other.
As the song started playing the bella twins and Colt Cabana pushed them closer together, Punk offered his hand to take to dance and she took it. The slow song fit them perfectly;
I Know we've been friends forever
But now I think I'm feeling something totally new
and after all this time I've opened up my eyes
now I see you we're always with me
As they danced she draped herself over him in a hug dance way, she closed her eyes, as Punks expression turned into a smile.
could it be you and I
never imagined
One of the Bellas and Colt looked on with 'AWWWWWW' looks on their face. Kelly crossed her arms angrily and her boyfriend looked dumb and ate food.

could it be you were right here beside me and I never knew
Maryse and Punk looked at each other.
could it be that its true, That it's you
and It's you and it's you
It's kinda funny you were always near
but who would ever thought that we would end up here
Punk half smiled at Maryse, and She did the same back.
and everytime I needed you youve been there to pull me through
now it's clear I've been waiting for you
could it be you and I

They lay their foreheads against each other, She rested her head on his shoulder.

could it be that it's true, That it's you
and It's you and it's you

Maryse gazed in Punks green eyes, as she leaned forward to kiss him, Punk closed the rest of the distance between them.

and It's just me and you
