As the week progressed following the events that happened on Raw John and Maria wouldn't leave each others side. They were just happy to be together!

"Hey John?", Maria asked.

"Yea?"

"What's gonna happen next week?"

"I don't know, but I do know one thing. Phil will not lay a hand on you. I'll make sure of that."

She smiled at him. She knew that he knew that she could take care of herself and didn't need to worry but she loved how protective he was. He really made her feel loved. She couldn't have asked for more.

"So what's on the agenda for today?" Maria asked as they sat on the couch of their hotel room.

John answered, "Well we have a photo shoot for the new WWE magazine coming out."

"Oh yea. I totally forgot."

John glanced at the clock. "Speaking of which, we need to get ready to go. We gotta be at the arena in 30 minutes."

They both got ready and headed downstairs to their rental car. As they pulled off in their Lincoln Navigator someone was watching them. Form around the corner with a plan in his head.

John and Maria arrived at the arena for the photo shoot. When they arrived they both escorted to separate dressing rooms. They had plenty of time till the show started. When they were done getting dressed and going through hair and makeup they brought to a room with a camera and backdrop. John quickly put on a smile when he saw Maria walk out the dressing room with a sparkly bikini on. Maria also smiled when she saw the man of her dreams with nothing but a pair of blue jean short sneakers.

"Damn" John said. "You look sexy!"

Maria blushed. "You don't too bad yourself!"

"Ok people let's get this show on the road." The photographer said. "John I want you to stand over here and Maria I want you to stand in front of him. I want the both of you to look into each others eyes. Look like you're in love." Little did he know they were in love. Maria and John did as they were told as the photographer began snapping pictures of them. "Ok John I want you kiss her" John had no problem with that. He leaned down and captured Maria's lips. She immediately kissed back with all she had. "Wow you two look like you've done this before." They didn't even here him they were to busy wrapped up into each other to care what anyone was saying around. John decided to heat things up by slowly creeping a hand up the side of Maria leg till it reached her waist. Maria let out a little moan. She ran her fingers up John's chest. "Ok you two that's enough. " But neither John nor Maria heard. They continued their make out session. "I said enough!" They just kept going not having a care in the world for anyone in the building. Everyone decided to leave and the two stayed there.

The need for air soon came and the couple pulled apart and looked at their surroundings. John was the first to speak. "Hey is it over?"

"I guess" Maria said laughing. "I guess I better go get my things from the dressing room and meet you in our locker room ok?"

"Ok" John gave her a quick kiss and watched her leave.

As Maria was walking down the hall she had a sudden feeling that someone was watching her. She stopped and looked at her surroundings and then continued down the hall. Suddenly someone came from around the corner and grabbed her arm.

Maria screamed. She turned around and found herself faced with none other than her best friend Torrie. "Oh my gosh Torrie why did you do that? You scared the shit out of me!"

"Sorry girl I didn't mean to!" she said. "So what you been up to this week? Since you don't know how to call anyone!"

"I'm sorry Tor. I was with John. Besides you told me you were going home to visit your family."

"Well yeah but……."

"yeah but what nothing" Both girls looked at each other and laughed. "Ok so we both messed up!"

The two hugged as a crewman walked by. "Torrie you're needed in hair and makeup."

"Ok thanks. See you later girl." Torrie said as she walked away.

Maria waved and continued down the hall to get her things. When she arrived at the dressing room she quickly grabbed her clothes and changed. She changed into a pink halter top with a black mini skirt and black heels. As she finished she grabbed her bag and walked out the room. She couldn't wait to get to her and John's locker room. She was so into her thoughts that she didn't see someone following her. All of a sudden she heard a noise behind her. She quickly turned. "Torrie I know it's you. Please don't scare me again." That's when she saw someone step from behind a wall. Maria's eyes widened. It was Phil. She turned to run away only to be grabbed roughly from behind and pushed into the wall. He put his hand over her mouth.

He said, "You thought you could get away from me huh. I told you this wasn't over yet. I told you I would get you back and that's exactly what I'm going to do. You're coming with me."

Phil took Maria to the nearest exit where he had Mickie James waiting in a rental car. He roughly threw her in the backseat and followed. He was going to take Maria someplace no one could find them. Especially John. He had plans for revenge and it was all going to turn out the way he wanted even if he had to hurt others in the process.

Well there you have it. I hope you enjoy reading this. Please review. Thanks!
