Maria's POV
I was working out at the gym. Music blasting through my earphones. I'm so absorbed in my own world. Not wanting to be disturbed. I took a break and sat on a bench grabbing a bottle of water. As I wipe my face with a towel, I pulled out my iPhone. I checked if I have any emails, text messages or tweets. There was one message. It was from John.
Hey babe. What's up? – JC
Nothing much. Out at the gym working out – MK
Ookay. Better not disturb you while you get that body ready for me ;D Just checking on you - JC
Hahaha very funny….love yah :D – MK
Love yah too – JC
I tucked my phone in my duffel bag and resumed.
John's POV
I was walking down the hallway as I slid my phone inside my pocket. I was heading to WWE's creative office. Gotta get my new storyline. I stepped into the room. People were busy. Papers everywhere.
"John! Over here!" Monique, one of the staff called. I walked across the room.
"Here's your new storyline." She said handing me the stapled papers. I went through it.
"Wait. Wade Barrett? The winner of NXT?" I asked
"Yes. I believe that you haven't met each other yet?" I looked over my shoulder and saw him standing behind me.
"John Cena, it's a pleasure to meet you" he said extending a hand.
"Very nice to meet you too. If you would excuse me, I gotta go now."I said walking backwards. I walked out the room as I continue reading the script. I let out a big heavy sigh. This one is a very big rivalry. And when I say big, I mean it.
Maria's POV
I was heading back to my room when I decided to pass at Mickie's.
"Hey Mickie!" I greeted her with a big hug when she opened the door.
"Hey Maria! What have you been up to?" she said stepping out of the doorway. I closed the door and followed her into the room. I collapsed onto the couch.
"I've been working out for the past 3 hours." I said resting a hand on my forehead.
"Hey, have you heard about that NXT rookie that had been around here for a couple of days?" my body went numb as I realize who she was talking about.
"W-Wade?" I stuttered my question.
"Was that the English guy? Yeah, I guess that's him. He headed to Raw 2 days ago. They said the creative gave him a massive storyline. I can't wait to see it on Raw. It should be enormous!"she said as she got some water in the fridge.
"Isn't it Monday today?" I asked as I sat up straight.
"Yeah." She said as she returned the bottle of water in the fridge. I flipped the TV on.
Monday Night Raw is live. John was having a match with Phil, my ex boyfriend. Just as I thought that John's gonna win the match, Wade came out. Distracting John. He was about to apply the Attitude Adjustment on Phil then a bunch of guys went out. Surrounding the ring. I recognized them as the NXT rookies. They trashed the whole show! Peeling floorboards off, attacking the crew. They attacked John and Phil. Even Luke Gallows. They attacked every person out there!
"I-I-I can't watch this." I got up from the couch and went out the door. I headed towards my room. I feel so bad that I'm miles away from John. I won't be there to check on him. I can't watch them both at the same time. It makes me fell guilty in a way that I could never understand.
I love John. There is no question with that. But there is something about Wade that draws me in.
