Another month had passed. Dannie still hadn't told Dwayne the truth. John was getting fed up with her excuses. He started wondering how serious she was about there relationship. Valentine's Day was coming up. Dwayne was at his home in California. Simone had just brought in the mail. She went into the kitchen where Dwayne was.
"You got a package or something dad." Simone said.
"Thanks." Simone left it on the counter. It was a brown envelope. There was no return address. Just Dwayne's name. He opened it. Inside was a note and pictures. The note read.
Hey Dwayne wanna see what your little sister's been up to?
He looked at the pictures. It was about twenty photos of Dannie and John. They looked like surveillance photos. They ranged from Dannie and John holding hands walking down the street, to John opening the door to his car so Dannie could get in, to them kissing.
"What the hell?"
Later that night at a hotel in Maine, Dannie was waiting for John to come over. John opened the door using the spare key Dannie gave him.
"Hi baby." She said.
"Hey." He said sitting down next to her. He looked upset.
"What's a matter?"
"I'm mad at you Dannie."
"What did I do?"
"It's not what you did." "It's what you still haven't done after promising me that you would."
"I will tell Dwayne."
"I don't believe you."
"You don't believe me?"
"No I don't." "We've been together for three months." "Three months." "We've hidden our relationship from everyone." "I'm tired of hiding."
"I am going to tell him John."
"Yeah." "First you were gonna tell him after the holidays." "Then after your match at the Royal Rumble." "Then I got excuse after excuse about why you haven't." "Maybe you're not as serious about our relationship as I am." "Maybe this is nothing but a fling to you."
"How could you think that?" "I love you." "You know I love you."
"Yeah, you love me, when no one else is around."
"What are you saying?"
"I'm saying that I love you but if you don't tell Dwayne soon I can't do this anymore, because obviously you don't love me."
"Yes I do."
"Then prove it." He got up and left.
Dannie called Natalya. She was crying.
"Dannie what's wrong?" Natalya asked.
"John and I just got in a fight."
"What about?"
"Dwayne."
"You still haven't told him yet?"
"No."
"Dannie."
"I know." "John came here and pretty much gave me an ultimatum." "He said if I don't tell Dwayne soon he can't be with me anymore, because that shows him I don't love him and he's tired of hiding our relationship." "What am I gonna do?"
"You know what you have to do."
"I want to tell Dwayne, Nattie, I do but I'm scared." "I'm scared of how he'll react."
"Dannie if you love John and I know you do, you only have one choice."
A few days had passed. Dannie and John hadn't talked since there fight. It was Valentine's Day. It was nighttime. Dannie knocked on John's hotel room door. He answered it.
"Hi." She said.
"Hi."
"Can I come in?"
"Yeah." She went in.
They sat on the couch.
"I wanna show you something." She took a plane ticket out of her purse. "On Friday when we have those two days off, I'm going to California and I'm telling Dwayne everything." "No more hiding." "I brought the ticket to show you that I'm serious." He looked at it and put it on the end table. "I love you with all my heart, John." "More then I've ever loved anyone." "I'm sorry." He hugged her. She hugged him back.
"It's alright." "I forgive you."
"Thank you."
"Wanna go make up?
"Sure." "It is Valentine's Day."
They went into the bedroom. They slowly stripped each other of clothes. Dannie was in her bra and panties and John was in his boxers. John was sitting on the bed. Dannie was straddling him.
"I love you Dannie." John said.
"I love you to John." They kissed. He took off her bra. He started kissing her down the center of her neck. "Oh John." She moaned. There was a knock at the door. John stopped.
"Shit." "I should put the "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door." They knocked again.
"I'll get rid of whoever it is." Dannie got up picked John's shirt up off the floor and put it on.
"I'll be right back."
She went and opened the door. Her eyes widened when she saw Dwayne standing here.
"Oh shit." Dannie said shocked. Dwayne noticed how Dannie was dressed.
"Oh, where the fuck is he?" Dwayne said angrily. "Cena get your ass out here now!"
"Dwayne please, calm down."
