Jade was at her apartment watching mushy lovie dovie movies. She tried not to keep looking at the clock wondering when she should give up & just call him herself. It was a dumb holiday anyways, why should she care. She got up to put her plate in the sink when her phone started to ring. "God why at the most inopportune time?" She quickly wiped her hands clicking the speaker.
"Hey hun. What tied you up?" She quickly answered with a joking tone.
"Hey Jadie girl." That wasn't Punk's voice.
"Randy?"
"Yeah, how you doing?"
"OK I guess." her tone more down.
"What is it?"
"Nothing it's stupid."
"Philip didn't call you yet tonight did he?"
He heard her sigh over the phone. "No…as I said something must of gotten him tied up. I'll try his phone later."
"No problem Jadie. You know if you need to talk?"
"Yeah I know. Um Randy please tell me I am just being a paranoid female."
"Why you think that?"
"Please."
"Come on Jadie you one of the most level headed women I know." He heard her laugh. "What I am being honest."
"Randy sometimes you don't know me as well as you think, just put it that way. If you must know I think Phil's cheating on me."
"Mind if I ask why? Don't tell me just because he didn't call you yet tonight?"
"No, besides that. About a month ago someone emailed me photos of him being mighty cozy with Maria at a party. When I asked him he brushed it off as harmless flirting, used the excuse that they used to date & are now just friends."

"Yeah & how would he feel if you flirted with some of the guys."
"Like who?"
"Like me." He tried to give a faint chuckle even if in his mind he was serious he didn't want her to know that.
"Come on Randy I am sure you already have a young lady tucked away somewhere."
"Even if I did that is besides the point. How do you think he would respond if he saw that?"
"I don't know…he might be glad I am opening up."
"I doubt it, he would be jealous as anything. Any man with half a brain would be a fool to have another guy drool over someone like you Jadie."
"Randy quit it, you gonna make me blush. Besides I wouldn't want someone too possessive over me either. Maybe I was reading too much into the photos."
"OK Fine any other reason you think he may be straying?"
"I don't know, just a gut feeling. I don't like that woman Serena the moment she saw I was with him at the rumble she kept giving me the stink eye when ever I looked at her."
She heard Randy laugh. "She have any clue who you are?"
"No clue. Punk introduced me by my real name. I know Luke knows me so maybe he informed her. I just know she hated when I went to check on him after the rumble match."
"I wish I knew Jadie, but you know we don't travel the same circles."
"Yeah I know. How's Teddy & Cody anyways?"
"Their good, down at the bar."
"And your not why?"
"I didn't feel like being part of the lonely heart club this year & I haven't talk to you in a while."
"Well that was sweet Randy. I should let you go though so I can try to reach Punk."
"OK Jadie good night."
"Night Randy." She hung up the phone going to wash her plate. Only then did she realize she was smiling.

Finishing cleaning she picked up her phone dialing Punk's number. She got his voice mail. "Hey hun, just wanted to call & tell you how much I love you. I guess you got tied up with training or a meeting or something. Talk to you soon." She hung up heading to get changed for bed. Sadly it was the something she was worried about.

Jade was on her way to surprise Punk at his hotel room after the show. She landed late that evening with an overnight bag as well as a few items in a suitcase she picked up to help with the evening. Getting to the front desk she did some sweet talking with the desk clerk trying to find out his room number so she could surprise him. She was having a hard time & she was glad to see this place had good security protocols until another clerk recognized her…well as her sister. She figured what ever as long as it worked.

She was given the room number as well as a key heading up to the room. She made her way into the bathroom setting out everything she needed. She watched the time when the show should have been over she began filling the tub & getting changed. She got changed into a red sheer night gown & robe tying it around her waist. She checked herself out in the mirror. She smiled hoping he appreciated the effort. She then added some of the oils she had with her into the bathwater swirling them with her hand shutting the water off just imagining her pampering him after his hard night working.

She stood up hearing the door open. "Night Luke." She heard him. "Hold on baby, just hold yourself a moment." Jade stood up furrowing her brow hearing that.
"Oh come on I always need to hold on." She could swear that was Serena's voice.
"Well , we can't allow prying eyes. Now come here you." She heard a squeal of a female. She just took a few deep breaths. "It's just me & you tonight baby." Jade closed her eyes hearing him call someone else baby. She quietly & as quickly as possible got back into her street clothing. She then reached over draining the water from the tub even though she could partly picture herself drowning either one of them in it. Her head snapped towards the door hearing more sounds from the room. It was moans causing her blood to boil even more. She took one of the bottles of bath oil opening it before walking into the room. Punk was on top of Serena both of their shirts off with him kissing her neck & fondling her breast. She reached her arm with the oil back throwing it towards the bed. It splattered against the headboard & over them. Serena yell closing her eyes to prevent getting splattered in her eyes.

"WHAT THE HELL!" Punk yelled feeling the rain of oil on the back of his head & neck. He jumped up from the bed turning then froze in panic. "Um..Jade.."
"SHUT UP!" She turned walking into the bathroom walking back out with the case she had. "Don't you DARE Try to contact me Philip Brooks." She just headed for the door walking into the hall heading for the elevator. He tried to run out of the room after her.
"Jade please let me explain." She stopped before turning the corner. She set the case down walking back towards him. He almost had a smile on his face seeing her walk back not taking note of the darkness in her eyes.

Before he could open his mouth she reached her hand back slapping him across the face. After hearing the slap she was actually the one in tears. "I don't know what hurt worse Philip…the fact you did it…or the fact you lied to my face about it. I trusted you…TRUSTED YOUR LIEING ASS! Stay the hell out of my face." With that she turned heading back down the hall again grabbing her case & vanishing from his sight.

Jade made her way down to the lobby & headed into the bar. She set her small suitcase next to the bar stool she got up on ordering a soda. Her foot tapping in frustration trying not to break down. She had cried enough in the hall way & the elevator she hoped she was cried out. She was sipping her soda when she felt a large hand come to rest on her shoulder. She turned her head looking up as a pair of concerned green eyes.
"Hey Deadman."
"Hey Jade. Want some company?"
"Don't know how good of it I'll be, but sure." She slid from the stool grabbing her bag joining Mark at one of the tables.
"What happened?"
"I really don't want to get into it in public." She watched his eyes narrow studying her.
"Something happen between you & Punk?"
"I don't want to get into it? Why would you think that anyways?" She asked looking down into her glass.
"Well one you normally only come out to see him, you have a suitcase with you, your eye are red & you are down here instead of his room."
"Ok yeah…something happened ok?"
"Not ok if it upset ya girl." She just shook her head sipping her drink.
"I just wonder how fast I can get a flight out of here."
"No point running from him."
"It is either leave or want to choke him."
Taker sat back in his chair some downing some of the drink he had in front of him. "You aren't normally the violent type."
"I know…sorry."
"Nothing to be sorry about. How bout we finish this talk in my room."
"No thanks Taker, I know you meaning well being close to my family after all this time. I don't want to pull you into my personal issues."
"Worried I'll retaliate on his ass for you?" He gave a faint laugh which she tried to smile back.
"Something like that." She finished her drink. "Guess I'll go head out…see ya around." She tried to give him another smile before grabbing her bag leaving to catch a cab back to the air port she didn't care if she had to wait all night for a flight it was better then stewing at the hotel anywhere near Punk.
