Maria eye's flickered open. She kept seeing little battles every time she opened her eyes. She thought she was imagining things. But when her eyes stayed open, she wasn't. John was fighting Dave, Randy and Adam were on the big guys, and the ladies were on the guys that carried Maria out. Maria saw John's belt on the other side of the alley. John gave Dave the belt for her! Some part of her was happy that he would do anything for her. But she was mad. She wasn't worth a damn belt that cost $350 on She kept looking at everyone fighting. Then she heard sirens. But it didn't seem that anyone else noticed.

"Cops!"

Everyone stopped mid punch and listened. Maria, being the opportunist Adam taught her to be, crawled over and grabbed the belt. John picked her up and everyone ran. John, Randy, Adam, Trish and Courtney all got in the car and sped off. Maria was laying in the backseat on the divas. John was speeding down the street before the cops could get him. Eventually the sirens died down as they reached the back lot of the arena. No one's car was left. Maria figured Cyber Sunday was all done and over with. She looked at the belt in her hands. Trish and Courtney realized that she had the belt. The divas looked at each other, and laughed. John let everyone out.

"Why were you guys….."

Then John saw the belt too. Randy and Adam also saw it too. John burst out laughing.

"Damn Maria you're smarter then I thought you were!"

"I taught you well. Now come on. Let's go show Vince that you're OK."

Maria gave John the belt and was led into the arena with Randy and Adam on each arm. Trish and Courtney hung back.

"Well, that was a pretty good fight don't you think?"

"Yeah. Never knew you guys had it in you."

But Trish didn't care. All she knew was that Dave had used her. She turned away so that John and Courtney couldn't see her tears. She heard Courtney had in. John turned to look at the broken diva.

"Trish are you OK?"

Trish turned around. Her mascara was running down her cheeks.

"Would you be OK if your boyfriend captured your best friend and only used you for sex?"

Trish started to cry. John sighed. Tonight was such a bad night that he wanted to forget really soon.
"No I wouldn't. But Dave didn't deserve you. He didn't deserve Courtney either. In fact, he doesn't deserve anybody if he's gonna treat any lady like he treated you."

John knelt next to Trish on the ground and put his arm around her. Trish buried her face into his chest. He was very muscular and fit she noticed. And he somehow still smelled good. John whispered into her ear.

"He did this to you before. Now I don't know why you got back together with him. Hell I don't know why Maria got back together with me after Courtney. Hell I don't even know why I had the eggs and sausage this morning!"

Trish let out a weak laugh. It wasn't much, but John loved that she laughed anyways.

"My point is. You're too good for Dave. Just forget about him and leave this place. You said that once you leave this place you were never coming back. What happened?"

Trish looked up at John. He was searching her face for an answer, but got none.

"Love happened John. Some damn love that was though."

"Hey. No love is stupid. Now I don't want you to leave. But you made a promise to yourself and you broke it. Now let's go into the arena, and you can renew that promise."

John helped Trish up. They walked into the arena. At least Vince was still there. Trish turned around and looked at John. His eyes were a beautiful blue. His smile just pulled it all together. She wished that she had him instead of Maria for that while.

"Thank you John. For everything. I don't know what I would have done without you."

She kissed him on the cheek, and headed for her room. John stood there in awe. He started to get feelings for the retired diva. But as much as he tried to bury them, they always came back.

Maria was in Vince's office, once again across from him. This confrontation was different. He was on the phone with someone, but she didn't know who. Then Paul Heyman burst threw the door.

"Oh Maria! You don't know how worried the ECW locker room has been all night! Are you alright? I sent out Dreamer and Rob to look for you, but they found that John already left! Oh lord did he do anything to you?"

Maria tried to remember. But she couldn't remember anything. Then Vince got off the phone. He realized that Paul was already in the room.

"Maria I am so glad that you are back safe. Now Paul I'm glad you're here. Maria regarding what happened tonight I have some very bad news for the both of you."

Maria looked at Paul, who looked at Vince, who was looking at Maria. Maybe this meeting was the same.

"Maria we can't have you here anymore. I am granting you a release. It's too dangerous for you here. I called the airport. Your flight leaves tomorrow morning."

Paul jumped out of his chair, causing it to fall over. Maria just sat there in awe.

"Mr. McMahon! You can't release a diva like Maria! We have good enough security on ECW and WWE! You have to let her stay."

"I'm sorry Paul but my decision is final. Maria?"

But Maria couldn't say anything. She was gone from wrestling. Her life was taken away from her. For her whole life she dreamed of wrestling. Now after she fulfilled that dream, it was crushed right in front of her.

"You have taken one of the most important things in my life away. But, I understand. I'll go say goodbye to everyone."

Paul stood there in shock. Maria walked out to a shouting match. Somehow news spread quickly. Everyone was calling her and asking her if it was true. She reached John's room. But he was sitting outside it with his bags and hers.

"I guess it's true."

"Yeah I guess it is."

John stood up. He looked at her, and then her bags. He got a crazy idea.

"Marry me Maria."

"John I am."

"No. I mean tomorrow. I already arranged everything and everyone has already been invited."

Maria's jaw dropped. Her mouth hurt from opening and closing. That explains why everyone was acting so weird around her.

"But….where did you get the time?"

"When I went out for beer that one time I arranged everything."

"But my dress! And the bridesmaids dresses and…."

"Remember when Trish had that wedding magazine and had you point out what you want? I ordered it. It's all taken care of. Please say yes."
Maria was at a loss of words. How could everything be planed? She just had to trust him.

"Where is everyone?"

"On a plane to Illinois to the wedding. Don't worry your parents know about it. SO does Paul and Vince."

Vince and Paul came out of Vince's office. They were all smiles. The yelling was all an act.

"But is the release real?"

"Just for a while. Just so that you can enjoy married life. John's gonna fake an injury so he can be out for a while. The title would be vacated and we'll have a tournament. When the finals come, John will come back and I will be a triple threat match."

Maria looked at Vince, then Paul, then John. She eventually squealed and jumped into John's arms.

"So I'll take it that you're up for it?"

"Yes! I'm totally up for it!"

She kissed John. Courtney, Trish, Randy and Adam came out of their rooms. Randy took Trish's hand and held it. She looked at her hand and then at Randy. Maybe life was going to be ok. Courtney and Adam saw Randy and Trish. Adam looked at Courtney and winked. He had no intention of being with Courtney. But if it happened, he wouldn't have a problem with it. For that moment, life seemed to be fair.
