Maria sat on the bench in the locker room and stared at the door. Why would Vince make her go to ECW? And why couldn't she go with John to the hospital? She took a towel and threw it at the door. Paul Heyman walked into the room and was greeted by the flying towel.
"Oh Paul I'm sorry! I mean Mr. Heyman! I mean….."
"Don't worry Maria. I'm only here to talk about your spot on the ECW roster."
Maria sulked back to the bench and looked at the wall. Paul knew this was going to be a long talk.
"Maria. I know you didn't want to come to ECW."
"Then why did you offer me a spot?"
"Well I also offered John a spot."
"Did you ask him personally?"
"No I asked Vince since John wasn't available. But Vince said no because he would lose ratings since he's a main eventer."
Maria's heart sank. She knew she wasn't a main diva, but he would give her up but not him?
"Oh."
"I'm really sorry Maria. I knew Vince wasn't giving you the chance you needed. On ECW, you will be the top Extremist! I guarantee it."
"Thank you for thinking of me. I would love to talk more, but I have to get ready for RAW."
"I understand. Are you more excited to come to ECW now?"
"Yes thank you."
Paul left the room happier then he was when he went in. But Maria's business with Vince wasn't over. Even though she had her wrestling attire on, she took it off and got on some sweatpants and a white tank top. She got on her flip flops, got her bag and walked to Vince's office.
"Maria go get ready!"
"Nah I don't feel like it. I'm gonna go visit John and bring him back here so you don't lose ratings."
"Paul told you didn't you?"
"Every single thing. I might as well leave cause I'm not that important. The hospital called anyways and said that he was cleared. Oh and this is the last time you'll see me."
"What do you mean?"
"After tonight I'm gone out of your life Vince. My bags are packed and ready to go. Good bye Vince."
Vince was saying something as she walked out, but Maria blocked out his voice. She walked to her car and drove to the hospital. All the while she thought about what John would think. When she reached the hospital John was waiting outside. She parked the car and ran to him. She hugged him lightly since he was hurt.
"Where's my big hug huh?"
Maria laughed and guided him to the car.
"Hey can I drive?"
"I don't know babe are you up for it?"
"I'm up for anything you know that!"
Maria let him drive.
"Hey drive me to the airport will you?"
"Why?"
"I'll explain later."
All the way to the airport there was aquward silence in the car. When they reached the airport Paul Heyman was waiting.
"Babe what's going on?"
Maria got out and got her bags. Paul took them off her hands and brought them to check out.
"Maria tell me what's going on?"
"John…..Vince moved me to ECW."
John got silent.
"ECW? But why?"
"Because I'm not important to WWE. So I'm off to New Jersey for a house show."
"And your listening to Vince? Why don't you stand your ground?"
"Because I AM nothing to the WWE! I'm just a stupid interviewer!"
"But you mean everything to me! Did you think about me?"
"Yes! Paul offered you a position but Vince won't let you go!"
Paul tapped Maria on the shoulder.
"Maria you ready to go? Don't worry you'll see each other on days off and supershows!"
"Bye babe."
She kissed him on the lips and walked into the airport. Within 10 seconds, she was gone.

Dave hung up the phone. He was kind of stunned for a while. Did Trish really mean that she loved him? Courtney snuck up behind him and started to rub his heck.
"Who was that?"
"Trish."
"Oh. Well what did she want?"
"Just to talk."
"About what?"
"Nothing! Gosh sometimes you can be so nosy."
Dave walked out of the locker room leaving Courtney confused. Why did he snap at her. He heard the door to the arena slam. Either it was Adam or Randy. She walked to the hall. It was John. He burst into Vince's office. She could hear yelling coming from the office. She put her ear up to the door and only heard a few words.
"Maria's not important……my fiancé…..ECW!...not her fault……last time….."
John walked toward the door. Courtney got off the door and hung out by the wall causally. John came out and slammed the door.
"How long have you been here?"
"I just got here."
John didn't bother asking any more questions. He just walked away and went to his room. Courtney went to follow him but Adam grabbed her arm and turned her back around. HE pushed her into Randy's room. Dave was sitting on the bench and Randy was watching him.
"Sit down next to Dave."
But she didn't sit next to him. She knew Randy was mad so she sat on Dave's lap. Randy got pissed off.
"For god sakes Court save that for later and sit next to Dave!"
"Your not my dad."
"I'm damn close to it! I can bring dad into this if you want that!"
Courtney slid off and sat next to Dave. He put his hand on her leg, but Adam took it off.
"Adam what the hell?"
"You're distracted! Both of you! Both of you haven't focused on the plan at all! And since Maria's on ECW now it will never work now! The only thing you two did was hook up!"
Randy was in the back of room quiet. Dave knew this was unsusal since Randy was always chatty. Randy stared at Courtney and glared at her. Courtney's expression went from fearless to scared.
"Adam, Dave. Could you leave for a second?"
"What you say in front of my girl friend you can say in front of me and Adam."
"Just leave damn it!"
Adam stared at Randy looking for answers. All he got was a blank expression. He motioned to Dave to leave. Dave was resistant at first.
"Babe go. I'll see you later."
Dave got up and followed Adam into the hall. Once the door closed Courtney got up from the bench. Randy still didn't move from the back of the room.
"You promised me Court."
"I know Randy. I know I did. But you made me so mad! I couldn't think of anything else!"
"A promise is a promise Court there's no loopholes in a promise."
"You promised not to tell mom and dad I'm still alive but you almost did didn't you? Don't try to turn this back on me!"
"Ok I'll admit I blew it! But I know Dave! If he sees another girl that he's attracted to he'll forget you and move on! That's what he did to Angie. And that's what he'll do to you! Your just a one night stand!"
Courtney stood there trying not to punch her brother. She couldn't believe he was doing this!
"Dave is the most loyal man I know of besides you and John! Wait….you haven't called Sam in a while! John will do anything for Maria! And Dave would do anything for me!"
"You don't know him like I do Court! Trying being in Evolution with him for a while! Court I don't want you to get hurt! Leave him now before he breaks your heart!"
"You just don't want your best friend dating your sister! I can't believe how such a dumb ass you are!"
Courtney walked out of the room and walked down the hall. Randy ran after her.
"Court wait!"
But Courtney was stopped anyways. There, in the middle of the hall, was Dave with another woman. She had blonde hair. Courtney couldn't believe that she had come back. Trish was the new woman in Dave's arms.
