AJ walked down the sidewalk reading the text over and over again trying to figure out who sent it to her. She was so sure it was Heyman but it didn't seem like it anymore. AJ closed her phone and let out a huge sigh. Why was this happening to her? When she thought everything was going back to normal this had to happen. She sighed and continued her way to the hotel where they were staying, she noticed that there was an ambulance outside and immediately a scared looked washed over he face. "No" AJ said as she ran into the hotel, the only thing running threw her mind was is Phil okay? She ran into her room but it only scared her more when she saw Punk sitting on the bed with a towel held to the back of his head which was now covered with blood. There were some medics tending his head, a security guard and Kofi talking to a police officer.
"PHIL" AJ said as she ran over to him. "What happened? Are you okay?" AJ said with worry laced in her tone. "I'm fine AJ" Punk said quietly. "Fine?" AJ said as her voice started to raise. "You call this fine?" "The back of your head is almost split open and you're telling me you're fine?" AJ hated it when Punk took these things lightly. He was clearly very hurt but he wanted to admit it. "AJ relax" Punk said holding her hand and giving in a light squeeze. AJ pulled her hand back and immediately stood up. "I want to know what happened right now." AJ said with a harsh tone. "AJ" Punk said before she cut him off. "NOW Phil" AJ spat.
Kofi sighed before he began to tell her. "There was a knock on the door so I told Punk to open it and some guy was standing at door with a stack of papers saying it was the script for the show. Punk hadn't seen him before so he was a bit suspicious about the guy. I called out to Punk asking him who it was and as soon as Punk turned around that bastard hit him in the head with a mental rod and ran off. I tried to stop him but he was gone before I could."
"WHERE THE HELL WAS SECURITY?" AJ spat. WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR GUYS JOB? You didn't even try and stop him when he was trying to leave?" AJ was clearly upset and all she wanted to do was rip apart the person who did this. "AJ" Punk said standing up while holding his head. "Just calm down okay? I'm fine look." Punk said. The medics had just given him some temporary stitches that would keep his cut together till he was taken to the hospital to get proper ones.
"DONT TELL ME TO CALM DOWN!" AJ yelled. "HOW CAN THEY BE SO CARELESS? HOW CAN YOU BE SO CARELESS? IF YOU THOUGHT HE LOOKED SUSPICIOUS YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE LET HIM IN!" AJ now had tears falling from her eyes, this was exactly what she was afraid of. Punk looked at AJ in surprise. She has never got this upset over anything. "AJ calm down! I'm fine! It's just a bit of a spilt! Worse stuff has happened to me." Punk said now getting a but agitated. "YOU DONT UNDERSTAND" AJ said screaming. "HE COULD HAVE KILLED YOU."
"BUT HE DIDNT." Punk said yelling now. "IM FINE! STOP OVER REACTING." As soon as Punk said that he regretted it. He knew AJ was just worried but her yelling just drove him off the edge. "April" Punk said stepping closer to her. "I didn't mean it like that." Punk said as he went to grab her arm but she pulled it away. "I'm sorry" AJ said as tears streamed down her face. "I'm sorry I was so worried about you, sorry I care" Sorry I don't wanna lose you." AJ said before ran out of the room.
"Shit" Punk said as he ran after her yelling her name. "AJ; AJ stop". Running was just making his head throb even more but AJ just wouldn't stop running. "April!" Punk said, his voice now raising. "APRIL JEANETTE MENDEZ" Punk said as AJ stopped running. He jogged over to where she was standing and turned her around. Her face were pretty much stained with tears and all her mascara was smudged.
"AJ I didn't meant what I said back there it was just a heat of the moment kind of thing. I never meant to hurt you it's just that all the yelling and screaming got to me so I lashed out and I'm sorry for that. I should have reacted the way I did and I definitely shouldn't have said that to you either. I'm sorry" Punk said as looked into her eyes. All AJ wanted to do was hug him and that exactly what she did, wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him closer. This incident definitely shook her after the text she received. She felt Punk wrap his arms around her waist and that just made her feel so safe, made her feel like no one could touch her as long as he was with her.
"I just got so scared" AJ said in a quiet voice. "The thought of losing you is just so" AJ said as she tightened her grip around his neck "terrifying." "I don't ever want to lose you, you're all I've got." Punk felt something wet fall on his shoulder and he knew right at that moment AJ was crying. He pulled away from her and looked down to see fresh tears falling down her face.
"Hey" Punk said as he wipe her tears. "I'm never going to leave you,trust me. Don't be scared that I'm just going to walk out of your life like that cause I'm not. You mean more than the world to me and nothing and no one will ever change that okay?" Punk felt horrible that AJ even thought of such things. Sure they got into arguments and they didn't have that "perfect" relationship but they cared about each other more than anyone knew. Nothing would tear them apart.
"I know but I just". "AJ you've seemed so worried ever since SummerSlam... Is there something you haven't told me?" Punk said cutting her off. "Come on AJ you know you can tell me anything right?"
AJ didn't know if she should tell Punk about the text she received or just leave it... The poor guy got hit in the head with a mental rod and telling him that there's someone out to get him wouldn't really make him jump for joy. So AJ decided to leave it for now till he got better.
"No I've just been really tired as of late with all these shows and stuff, just really stressing." To AJ's surprise Punk believed what she said. "Okay but you know you can tell me anything right?" Punk said emphasizing on the word anything.
"Yeah" AJ said giving him a small smile. Punk knew AJ was hiding something from him, normally she would be ready to go and kick the persons ass but instead she was talking about all this other stuff that she never talks about. Punk knew AJ wouldn't tell him so he had to find out himself.
