Right Where We Left Off

Chapter 26

Paige was surprised as John's lips touched hers but it wasn't long before she was reciprocating his actions. Her arms wound around his neck to bring him closer. She felt him shift as he used his hands on her hips to walk her backwards into the room. His leg shot out to close the door behind them.

The sound of the door slamming knocked Paige out of whatever trance she was under. She pulled their lips apart slowly. Her eyes opened and looked into John's blue eyes with a questioning glance. "John…?" She asked, unable to form an actual sentence. Feeling his lips on her had been almost too much. All the memories of their relationship came rushing back and she remembered what it was exactly she loved about him. She felt electricity in the kiss that she hadn't felt in years.

He let out a short sigh, adverting his eyes for a couple seconds before connecting with her gaze. He stepped closer to her, one of his hands on the small of her back, keeping her close to him, and his other hand was on her face, caressing her cheek. "Please…just one night. I need you." Her eyes widened and her heart began to beat fast. "We don't have to mention it ever again…I just…I need to feel you." He held his breath as he waited for her answer.

Who was she trying to kid? She could never deny John. Her gaze trailed from his eyes to his lips momentarily before she gently pressed her lips to his. She heard him let out a happy moan as they slowly walked over to his bed.

Two months had passed and true to John's words, the night they spent making love was never mentioned again. Though both Paige and John had come close to saying something, they always held back. Despite sharing that intimate moment, things weren't awkward around them, in fact, things were better. Paige forgot about being mad at John for Carla, allowing them to once again be friends. John had gone back to Carla the next morning and they were still together, barely though. They had so many problems but one or both of them always refused to talk about things, depending on what the subject was. Carla and Paige avoided each other as much as possible, which worked out well because it kept John from having to chose one over the other.

That one night with John replayed in Paige's mind everyday. She felt guilty, not only because she was exclusively with Randy at the time, but also because as guilty as she felt, she wished they could have a repeat performance. She was still very much with Randy and things were going well. Paige tried her best to hide that secret from Randy and from what she could tell, he had no clue. Though both Randy and Paige want to tell John about their relationship, they had yet to actually come clean. It never seemed like the right time and it was always hanging over there heads, knowing it was something they had to do.

Tomorrow was Raw and they had a house show back in Boston. John and his parents opened up their house for John's friends to spend the night instead of going to a hotel. Paige had her own home in Boston, so she said she would just sleep there but John convinced her that it would be easier to head to the airport to leave for the next city if they were staying in the same place. She had agreed, never needing a reason to see John's parents. John had arranged for himself, Paige, Randy, Dave and of course Carla to stay at his house so after they landed at the airport in Boston, they headed over to John's place together.

Once they drove up, John hopped out of the car and unloaded everyone's bags from the back. Paige was quick to grab her bag and lead the group inside. She opened the door without knocking and set her bag by the door. "Mom? Dad?" She yelled playfully and smiled at Randy who had followed her inside.

"Is that Paige?" She heard them ask each other in the other room. It wasn't long before she saw Carol walk around the corner. "It is you!" She said with a happy smile. She walked forward and embraced Paige in a big hug.

Paige laughed as she hugged the woman back. "It's so good to see you Carol."

"Oh you too dear." She said then stepped back to look the girl over. "You are looking beautiful as always." Paige smiled her thanks. Carol's attention turned to the young man standing next to her. "Randy, how have you been?" She asked, pulling him into a hug as well.

"I've been pretty good. Just beat your son for the title recently so no complaints." He said which caused them all to laugh. The others filed in the door, all greeting Carol with a hug.

"Come in, come in. John's watching TV in the living room. John, you can show them all to their guest rooms; I just fixed them up." She said to her son. He nodded and showed them into the living room where they all said hi to his dad. Paige took a seat next to him, watching the football game with him while John was showing them all into their guest rooms. Paige already had a room that she always used when she stayed over at the Cena's so there was no need for a tour.

"So how have you been?" John Sr. asked Paige with a pat on her hand.

She let out a sigh. She could never hide things from John's parents. "I've been alright." Though in this case, it definitely would not be right to tell them the secret about her relationship with Randy before she even told John.

"Well that doesn't sound too convincing. Come on, tell big John all about it." He said, wrapping an arm around her shoulders, pulling her to his chest. She tucked her feet underneath her on the couch. She stayed silent for a minute, listening to see if anyone was making their way downstairs. There was a lot of footsteps up there but none near the steps. She let out a sigh and quietly, just in case someone walked downstairs, began to tell him about how Carla treated her and the things she said about her when she thought she wasn't around. She was skeptical at first, but she eventually also told him about her night with John.

After she finished John Sr. was quiet, taking it all in. He nodded his head before placing a kiss on his forehead. "It's all very simple. You see, Carla is jealous of the relationship you had with John. She doesn't know how serious it was, just that it was for four years, which is pretty intimidating. I'm not making excuses for her behavior, which was disgusting, but she feels threatened that you're going to bat your little eyelashes and John's going to come running back to you." He paused dramatically, letting her take this all in. "And you sleeping with John and feeling all your feelings for him rush back could either mean your lonely or you don't know how you feel about him and are trying to figure it out or you're in love with him." He said simply. Paige drummed her fingers on her legs in thought. She nodded her head and smiled at John, pressing a kiss to his cheek.

"Thanks John, that was actually really helpful." She stood up and waved at him as she grabbed her bag from the front door and made her way upstairs into the room she would be using. As she walked by John's room, she faintly heard someone talking in an angry voice. Her curiosity got the best of her and she walked close to it, looking in the slightly ajar door, seeing Carla angrily addressing John.

"What do you want me to do Carla?" John asked through clenched teeth.

"I told you already! Tell your mom you are old enough to share a room with your girlfriend." She shrieked quietly.

John shook his head at her. "I told her that and she doesn't care. No girls allowed to spend the night in my room, in this house. She said if you need to sleep in my room then we can go to a hotel." Paige chuckled silently to herself at the sight. Carol would never change. No girls spending the night in the boys rooms had always been a rule and she only allowed it once they were married.

Carla's eyes darkened. "Fine, let's go to a hotel then, I am not sleeping in that room by myself when my boyfriend is sleeping right next door."

John put his hands up in defense. "Listen, those are my mom's rules. I'm not going to disrespect her just so you stop your bitching. If you are that put off by sleeping in that room alone, go to a hotel then."

Carla shook her head violently and angrily grabbed her suitcase up off the bed. "Fine, I'm out of here." She said, making her way to the door. Paige hurriedly rushed down the hall to her room, closing the door, quietly just as she heard John's door slam closed. She put her ear against the door and heard Carla's footsteps go down the stairs and the front door close violently behind her. Paige laughed as she fell back on the bed. Thank god she left, she didn't think she could be in the same house with that woman for very long.
