Aj's POV

After Raw was over I headed back to my hotel room and iced my face some more. The next part of the plan is just to sit back relax and let Creative do their job. So I'm just going to lay low until I'm needed, which I estimate will be with in then next week or so. I decided to check my Twitter to see what is going on. Lets just say nobody cares about what the Authority did tonight… they are mostly still stuck on the Start of Something Wickedly Beautiful, and it's kind of funny because I'm sure half of them don't even know what I meant by that. There are already gifs of when Aksana slapped me, and when we kissed. Some are even already advertising a match for us at the next pay-per-view. I knew doing what I did would catch the eye of some fans, but I didn't think it would explode into something of such great caliber. I'm afriad that my army or the Leeana shippers might be horriably torn if it does end up Aksana vs. Aj for the Divas Championship, hell I might end up just as heartbroken as they would be. I guess it won't be as bad because we are only acting right? But to the fans it will be a totaly different perspective.

I don't know but I don't want to think about that right now. I just want to watch TV and relax, so that is what I did. Or atleast that was until I saw that The Warriors was on and that is when I started to teary eyed. That was one of the best nights I've ever had deffinitly the most memoriable one at the most. It was the night I knew for sure that I loved Aksana. I knew I loved her before that night its just I wasn't all that sure if what I felt was real, but everything she said or did made me fall deeper and deeper in love with her, just like I know it was the same for her. I love her because she really actually loved me for who I am inside and not who I play or because I would look good with her. She loved April not Aj and that is why I can't let her go I refuse to let her leave me for good, now that I'm famous in a way it will be hard to find somebody who loves me for me and not because I work for WWE. It's like if I didn't have the fame or money would they still love me, thats another downside of working where I work. If there is one person who I know will still love me is Aksana, trust me I know. I've put her through more than enough of my breakdowns and pick-me-ups and each and everyone she stayed by my side through it all. And never once did she show any sign of wanting to leave me. But I guess you can only push someone so far before they actually leave you… I fucked up one good time and then she was gone.

I'm determined to get my sunlight back I'm tired of sitting in the dark 24/7. I know it's late but I want to let her know that I'm thinking about her. So I took a picture of the TV so you can tell what movie I was watching and sent it to her. I didn't caption it or anything because its a little insider between us. I then turned off the TV because it didn't feel right watching it without her with me, plus it hurts to think about what could have been. I looked at the message I sent her and she got it… and she read it! We both have IPhones and you can tell the time when someone recieved and opened your message if they have an IPhone too. That made me smile enough on its own knowing that she atleast bothered to look at it. My heart then began to beat faster when I saw the little speech bubble appeared signaling she was typing something back... But after ten seconds it disappeared and she didn't respond. Well now I'm a little disappointed about that but I didn't expect her to say anything back. I just set my phone aside and decided I would just go to bed.

It didn't take long for me to fall asleep. I was only sleep for about five minutes before my phone rang and woke me up. Holy Fuck she texted back! It was only one sentence but it means the world to me right now.

"Told you it was a good movie."

Was all it said down to the last character. I'm not sure if I should text back or not, but then again she might have a room to herself like she always does so we could text all night if we wanted. But sadly that isn't part of the plan for now so I guess I will settle for something short and sweet.

"You always are right! Anyways Goodnight Sweet Dreams!" with a couple emoji hearts at the end.

I know its basic but if I'm going to get her back I have to start like nothing bad ever happened. I like to think of it as growing a new flower, you have to plant the seed first and give it a lot of T.L.C., then eventually it will sprout into a pretty flower. This is the part where I am trying to get the right seed to plant. After a minute or two she texted me back.

"I know, and Goodnight to you too"

This just made my night go from great to even more great. It looks like I am starting to make progress it's only a matter of time.

XXXXXXXXXX

The next morning was the same as it was for the past two months. Wake up back in real life, check email, get ready for the day. Mostly depending on what needs to be done that day, like today I have a signing again. Going to those used to be fun because Aksana was usually beside me, and I didn't get the same shameful looks from parents. Now they just paired me with Layla and one of the other superstars on the roster it always changes. I still sometimes get those damn questions about December 2013, but now I just answer them all with the same thing… Whats in the past is the past, forgive, fight and stop a nothing to get what you want. Its not much but it answers the question.

So this time I decided to wear my other shirt I had them make for me, which was a black wifebeater that said 'I'm in Love With A Foreign Chick And Proud!' on it in yellow green and red. I decided to match it with a pair of denim jeans and my black converse. When I got there Layla gave me a funny look.

"So like whats up with your shirt today?" She whispered to me as we sat at the table in front of the fans.

"Exactly what it means Lay. We can get lunch after we are done here." I whispered back. She just shook her head ok. From there we began to sign photos and take pictures with the fans. I have to admit I will never get tired of seeing all my young fans faces light up with joy as they see me, I could tell some of the parents either didn't like me or they don't approve of my shirt. To be honest I don't really care what they think my happiness comes before making others happy, and my personal life has nothing to do with what I do in my professional life. So I just pretend I don't see them staring at me like that, and if it isn't that look then I get creepy looks from the guys who want me. You would think by now they would get the memo that I'm not into guys anymore, but I guess they all think they can "turn me back". It only makes me feel uncomfortable like at any moment they might try to touch me. It makes me wish Aksana was next to me so she can give them the look that lets them know I'm happily taken by her. Its only a matter of time before she will be doing that for me again.

The signing went good I guess, I always love meeting and talking to my fans.

"Where are we going for lunch?" Layla asked me as we headed out of the building and into the parking lot.

"Umm I'm in a good mood today so I'll let you decide." I smiled as we got into the car.

"Well I think I saw a TGI Friday on the way here." I

"Well I don't really feel comfortable going into those without her… but I saw this local bistro not to far from here?" I doesn't feel right going into a Friday's restaurant without my Aksana. Yeah it might not be the exact one where we had our somewhat first date, but its our thing.

"Oh yea thats right I forgot. I'm sorry Aj." She said softly. She knows the whole story I pretty much explained it all to her a while ago. She is basically one of my few friends I have here on the road now.

"It's fine I think I'm doing a lot better than how I was a couple months ago."

"Well that's good, but I could tell judging by what you did the other night… and the past couple weeks really."

"Yea I came to a decision that I don't want to be sad and alone anymore. I guess it is what one would call closure between Aksana and I." I spoke

"Well that's good. I'm glad to know you are trying to move on from her. This is a big step for you Aj."

"Yea I know… but I'm not ready for closure just yet Lay. It wasn't fair I made a mess and now I have to clean it up. And then when it is all said and done Leeana is going to be reunited." I said triumphantly.

"What are you talking about Aj?! Do you really honestly think she will take you back after you broke her heart?" She said in a lets-be-honest tone.

"Yes. I. Do! I'm not wearing this shirt for nothing Lay. Do you know why I kissed her the other day?" I spoke confidently

"Because you felt like it?"

"No... Well yea that and because I know she wants me back I can tell, she needs me like I need her. When our lips touched I felt the electricity spark, like how everything was before the incident. I felt it and I know she felt it too, that flame we share it never left. She can try to put it out all she wants but it is an eternal flame that won't ever go out. I just have to convince her to stop trying to put it out and just embrace it."

"What?!"

"I want my Aksana back." I said slowly so she could understand.

"Aj hun I don't think that is a good idea right now." She said in a low cautious voice.

"Yes it is. I've waited long enough and I have to act before somebody else does. I don't need a love triangle, because those only lead to more heartbreak." I spoke as we pulled into the bistro parking lot. And she looked at me with an almost sympathetic look. She didn't say anything either she just let out a sigh. "Lay why are you looking at me like that? If you have something to say just say it." I shrugged

"Ummm… You're wasting your time she..." I just tilted my head to the side and raised an eyebrow. "You know her and… you know what it isn't important right now lets go eat." She spoke before she got out the car. Now I want to know what she was going to tell me. I'm sure if it was important she would have told me by now. So I got out the car and followed her inside the restaruant.

We weren't in there for long because it wasn't packed. After that we did a little shopping, there is no such thing as shopping too much. There is always room to buy more stuff. I didn't really buy a lot of stuff, but I did get my Aksana a cute little owl necklace. It doesn't mean anything I just wanted to get it for her because that is what you do when you love somebody. By the time we finished that it was pretty late so I dropped Lay off at the superstar hotel and then I drove back to my hotel.

When I got back I decided I would kind of just hang out. That only lasted for about an hour before I got bored and so I decided to go down to the pool. Its been a while since I last went swimming so why not go. I could use some vitamin D anyways and it could be a great place to do some thinking. So after changing into my bikini I put on a pair of shorts grabbed my sun glasses and headed down to the pool.

When I got there it wasn't to crowded. So I walked over to one of the beach chairs that was under an umbrella. I needed to put on sunscreen, I may be a total badass but I don't want sun burn nor do I want a tan line or skin cancer. So I put some on, its hard to do things like that when you are in a bikini there are guys around staring at you as you do it. But there is an up side to it because it shouldn't be hard to get one of them to get my back for me. Its so obvious that they are stareing at me, but I guess its time to act like a dumb bimbo and pretend I didn't see then looking at me. I grabed my sunscreen and began to walk over to them. There is only three of them.

"Excuse me boys but do any of you guys mind helping me get my back? Usually my Ex would do it for me but we aren't together right now." I asked innocently. They all ogled me like I was the last piece of meat.

"Umm… ahh yea I will do it." Spoke one of them. He was about 6'4 short brown hair and pretty blue eyes. "Oh my name is Nixson by the way."

"I'm Nina nice to meet you!" I politely smiled as I handed him the bottle. There is no way in hell I'm telling him my real name. I probably won't see him ever again anyways.

"Well that's a very pretty name Nina. But if you could just turn around I would gladly do your back for you!" he smiled. So I just turned around and then he started to lotion my back. "So whats a pretty lady like you doing out here all alone?"

"Not much really just trying to avoid my ex for the time being. I just have to get away and explore my options do a little thinking." I shrugged it is the truth.

"Oh well its hard to imagine why somebody would want to break up with you. I mean if you were mine I would never let you go." He said as he finished up my back. I then turned to face him.

"Well thank you Nixson you are very sweet. Well it was nice meeting you." I smiled.

"Yea it was nice… but umm if you want I could be your pool buddie for the day... Well its just you shouldn't sit out here on this beautiful day alone." He said nervously. Ehh I have nothing to lose really, besides its always good to make new friends right. Its just too bad he doesn't know who I really am.

"Sure why not." I shrugged before I began to walk back over to my stuff. I heard him following me not too far behind. I then sat down on my chair he then followed and sat in the one next to me. "So what bring you here to the great state of California?"

"Well I'm on vacation with my friends over there." He spoke as he pointed towards his friends who were staring at us. "What about you?"

"Well I'm only here because my job requires me to travel about 300 days a year. I live a very complicated life." I said nonschlantly.

"Oh that sounds very stressful. How did you manage to keep a relationship when you are constantly traveling?"

"No its not that bad really, its my fans and the Universe that keep me going all 20 million plus worldwide and growing."

"What is your job exactly?"

"That's not important, just know I take names in the morning and kick ass in the evening. But if you don't mind I have to ask you a couple questions."

"You know I love women who can fend for themselves." He smirked. Good thing I have my glasses on because this way he can't see me roll my eyes at him. "And sure ask away."

"Ok lets say you were in a relationship with this girl who you basically fell in love with her under weird circumstances. It was all going good until one day you accidentally cheated on her with her best friend… who just so happened to be her cousin. And then she finds out that you cheated from one of your ex's who tells her in front of the entire world. And then she leaves you even though you both are and probably forever are in love. What would you do?" I asked looking at him, he had a puzzled face on.

"Well that's easy I would try to win her back, and not stop until she is mine again." He spoke effortlessly.

"I agree, but to what extent would you go to to get her back?"

"Oh I would keep bugging her until she agrees to let me take her on a date. And then I'd spoil her until I go broke and just hope she takes me back. If that doesn't work I would pretend to not care anymore and hopefully she will realize that I'm the only one for her." Hmmm he might be a stranger but he has a good point. And know that I think about it that is how Aksana got me to fall for her.

"Thank you! You are a great guy I know one day you will make some girl out there very happy." I said genuinely.

"Maybe I could make you happy?" He said hopefully. This is what I was afraid of. So I lifted my glasses and looked him in the eye.

"No you don't want me I can be quite the handful at times. Besides I'm still in love with my ex-girlfriend. If I wasn't in the position I'm in now yea you probably could." I smiled.

"Oh extreme! Now I feel like a total jerk." He blushed embarrassed.

"No its not your fault you didn't know. But you just gave me a brilliant idea. So if you excuse me I have to go." I spoke as I got up and packed up my stuff. "Anyway take care and goodluck in life." I smiled before I gave him a kiss on the side of the mouth.

"But wait will I ever see you again?" He questioned.

"Umm yea just Google WWE Aj Lee, and I'm sure you can figure the rest out from there." I spoke as I walked towards the doors that lead inside. "Oh and my real name is April or Aj as I'm known to the whole world, thanks again Nixson." I smiled before I went inside. Who would have guessed I would draw inspiration from a complete and total stranger? It looks like it calls for another tweak in the plan… I guess socializing isn't all that bad.

Well it looks like Aj is changing the plan again. But what did Lay neglect to tell Aj?

Yea I know I'm like forever late on my uploads… but I was way to depressed for the past couple days and I had writers block. I'm sure we all know what happened this past Thursday. If you don't know by now they let my Aksana go… I was heartbroken I still am. I honestly considered just giving up writing, but I couldn't abandon you guys or my stories my pride wont let me do it. I also know how much you all Love Leeana and I don't want to stop writing for you all. So really thank you all for reading my stories.

I know its basic but you all deserve to know the truth I promise never to bullshit you. But until next time #FHRITP -Joz
