Fix You
A.J looked carefully at Punk and bit her lip, he was nervous today for some reason. She couldn't place her finger on it but she knew it was tonight's segment on Raw. It had been two months since they started this storyline re-do and she had dreaded it. Tonight she would do the unthinkable and she knew Punk would be hurting a bit after it.
After they got to the arena they went to their locker room, she picked Alee up and placed her on the floor. The small child had grown just a tiny bit since being born, Phillip however did grow plenty, he was also getting pretty heavy.
"Hi there baby," she cooed
Alee had yet to smile at either her or Punk or anyone else for that matter. Phillip however had smiled for the first time a week ago when Zack was holding him and Derrick had been walking by them catching his attention as he was looking down at his phone and he ended up crashing into a pole leaving a huge bump of his forehead. Alee however was a though nut to crack, they had tried everything. Punk had deliberately pushed Derrick into some equipment to coax a smile from her but he got nothing, Phillip however did smiled widely showing off his toothless smile.
Alee just blinked at the man and then started to cry once he would approach her. Punk had banned Derrick from coming close to Alee because she would always get fussy or cry when she saw him too close to her. A.J found that quite amusing and everyone would tease Derrick about it but he was determined to get her to like him.
Her eyes caught sight of Punk pacing back and forth not even enjoying tonight's Raw. She had been hesistant to accept this part of the storyline but Vince had told them both that they couldn't do anything that was considered too clam as A.J was indeed loosing it. Tonight she would have a match with Sheamus and she was a bit nervous.
"Sit down," A.J told him
Punk starred at her and sighed deeeply, "I'm just nervous."
"I am too," she whispered, "I don't wanna do it."
"But we have to," he told her
She frowned and he took her hand in his, "I won't be mad at you, it's a storyline, it must be done."
A.J nodded slowly and Punk smiled at her grabbing Alee from her, A.J went to change and Punk starred at the small girl in his arms. For days they had tried everything to get the small girl to smile but she was just as bitter as his father had been not daring to laugh at anything. She did however have a short temper specially when it came to Bateman -who was banned from being more than two feet close to her.
"Come on, baby," he smiled at the small girl, "smile for daddy."
The small girl only brought her small hand up to her mouth and began to chew on it, Punk pried her tiny hand from her mouth and chuckled. The small girl however didn't find that funny as she started to fuss and get cranky. Punk groaned and placed her in the playpen they had the stagehands set up for the twins for every show they had to attend.
Alee laid content on the playpen starring up at the mobile that had butterflies on it, she was so amazed by how they would go round and Punk always found himself watching her quietly smiling at his daughter. He turned to see Phillip stirring in his carrier and he picked the small child up.
"Hey there champ," he smiled and the baby squealed
Punk chuckled and kissed the top of his forehead. Almost anything made Phillip laugh much like A.J's father. He found it amusing that they each inherited something from their grandparents, Alee a bitter sense of humor and Phillip and easy going and very light sense of humor.
A.J came out in her blue outfit and he smirked, "how do I look?"
"Hot," Punk replied
A.J chuckled and looked at Phillip, "hey there baby."
The small child squealed at the sight of his mother and began to move his small hands up and down in joy causing both parents to laugh.
"Yes baby, mommy's right here," she cooed
She took the baby from him and looked around confused for a second and Punk finally laughed, "she's in the playpen."
A.J shook her head and Punk knew she wanted him to pick the girl up. Punk walked up to the playpen and picked the small girl up. She fussed a bit but he managed to keep a grip on her and calm her down. She settled quietly when he placed her pacifier in her mouth.
"She's so cute," A.J smiled down at her little girl
"She's too fussy," he told her
"Just like daddy, right Alee?" A.J asked gripping her little toe and lightly moving it up and down causing Alee to frown,"oh no, never mind."
Phillip chuckled and placed the pacifier back in her mouth and Alee calmed down once more. After a few moments of peace he placed his jacket on and in walked Zack, Kofi and John Cena. The trio was to babysit the twins while Punk and A.J got their segments done, and John would leave too but he had insisted on babysitting as well.
"Be very careful with my babies," A.J warned
"No problem," John smiled as he took Phillip,"hey there champ."
The small baby squealed as he always did and ended up putting his small hands on John's face. Kofi took Alee much to her dismay and the small girl began to fuss, Kofi looked scared for a moment before Punk pushed the pacifier back in her mouth and she calmed down. Zack stood there and smiled, "no worries."
A.J walked out as Sheamus had arrived to leave with her for their match, and Punk would need to take his position for the segment he would be in with A.J afterwards. The boys watched them go and then they looked around the room that contained several baby things.
"I think we're going to do great," Kofi smirked
As soon as he said that Alee's pacifier fell on the floor and Kofi picked it up and told Zack to go wash it up but then as Kofi looked down he noticed the small girl's lip started to tremble and she was frowning at him, Kofi's eyes grew large and soon she started to wail. Kofi tried to hush her but nothing worked. John looked on and as after several minutes Phillip grew tired of the noise and started to cry as well. John panicked as Zack came back and placed the pacifier in her mouth but Alee spit it out and continued to cry.
"TURN THEM OFF, JOHN," Zack cried
"YOU'VE BEEN AROUND THEM MORE, HOW DOES SHE KEEP THEM QUIET," Kofi asked
"I DON'T KNOW, ALEE NEVER CRIES WHEN A.J IS AROUND!" Zack yelled at him over the crying
John figured Alee didn't want to be undone because she started crying even louder over their yelling and even Phillip was now screaming. They boys looked around and found nothing useful, they had denied the bottles and the pacifiers and they didn't even want a nap.
"PLEASE TURN THEM OFF," Zack yelled
"HOW DOES ONE TURN A CHILD OFF?" Kofi asked yelling at Zack
"Dear Lord, SAVE US," John cried
A.J smiled as she had just won her match, she didn't wait around to cheer with Sheamus as she slipped out of the ring and took the microphone from Justin before he could finish announcing the winners. She smiled at everyone and started doing the whole gimmick steal thing. She started skipping her way towards the ramp as she held the microphone and one arm was in the air as she chanted "Yes! Yes! Yes!" The crowd following her chanting the same thing back.
The camera showed Sheamus as she headed backstage and he looked quite confused but at the same time he was amused at the small girl. A.J soon ended backstage where she asked several stagehands if they had seen Punk.
"Punk?" she asked, "Anyone seen Punk? Punk?"
A.J kept pretending to look for him and then smiled upon seeing him with his back turned to her, "Punk! Hey, Punk."
He looked at her and gave her the "just a second" gesture something and she smiled looking at him, "hang on, hang on, I'm on the phone. Okay? Just hang on one second."
A.J smiled and swayed slightly as she asked in the sweetest tone ever, "who are you talking to?"
"Just hang on," he told her quietly as he pretended to keep listening to his conversation
She frowned and stopped bouncing as she looked at him with a serious expression, "I said who are you talk to?"
He looked at her obviously baffled, "It's personal, just hang on."
She smiled and then looked down waiting for him to finish his conversation when she heard him say,"you know what? I'm going to call you right back."
"What'd you think of my match?" she asked
He looked at her, "hang on, I was on the phone with my sister."
"Oh," she smiled and tried to continue dismissing what he had said, "My-my match, did you see it?"
"What matched?" he asked confused and her smile disappeared, "No, I was on the phone -I've been on the phone for like 15 minutes."
She looked down and then back up, "so you didn't see my match?"
"Look I-"
"You were on the phone the whole time?" she asked her voice laced with hurt and anger
"Um, Yeah I was on the phone I didn't know you had a match, I'm sorry," he told her
She looked down the whole time while he talked then looked back up at him her voice beginning to crack, "so you weren't paying attention to me?"
He shrugged at her and she looked at him with a sad expression as she stepped back slowly. And soon walked away much to Punk's dismay, he watched her go and then held his hands and shrugged and then pointed to his phone as the camera guy called cut.
A.J smiled at him as she returned and hugged him, "well done, you played that off real good."
"Thank you," she smirked, "I guess I deserve a prize."
"Well I guess you do," he smirked
"A.J, segment," she looked up to see Eve walking towards her and she waved goodbye to Punk
He watched her go and chuckled, after she had left the uneasy feeling had settled once more. What were they really doing?
Eve had been dreading to continue to play the bad person but she had to. After discussing it with A.J they had agreed that this wouldn't cause a drift that it was all part of the storyline they were all working hard on to make it as believable as possible.
First she would have a segment with Teddy Long then A.J, so she started off by pretending to kiss up to him and tell him that she was glad to see him. Teddy then went on to make fun of her by giving her a name tag much like she had given him while Johnny was in charge. She pretended to be offended by it as she started to rip it into pieces walking further down the hall after a few tears she threw it on the ground and continued to walk. She then spotted A.J and smirked, she was standing there on her own bitting her nails and crying softly.
She flicked her hair to the side and then chuckled softly as she approached her, "A.J!"
The smaller woman looked up at her and Eve almost applauded A.J at how well she played her part. She looked so distressed and dissapointed, as if Punk had really done her harm. She shook her head mentally and continued.
"Wel- well, you've been really busy lately, haven't you?" she told her placing her hands on her hips,"Taking a play out of my book, maybe? You know we should probably leave the mind games to grown ups and you should do what little girls do best. Go sit in a corner and cry."
Eve chuckled as she began to walk away, "You'll do anything to get attention, won't you Eve?" Eve turned to her and made her way back to her side, A.J smirked at her and then turned to face her, "What are you gonna do now? You tried to butter up John Laurinitus but he's gone."
Eve began to look annoyed as the smaller diva kept talking to her but didn't say anything back.
"So who is Eve going to brown-nose next?" A.J asked mocking her, "You wanna be in charge? You wanna be a movie star? You wanna be in reality shows?" Eve looked away in disgust and A.J smirked, "You will do anything to get attention."
Eve could smirk at how well A.J was doing at playing her part but she kept as sneer on her face not even looking down at A.J. Then once she did A.J looked away and and smiled as if she had an epiphany before looking up at her.
"You wanna see how to get attention? I'll show you," she smirked, "I'll show all of you."
With that the smaller diva walked away from Eve leaving her baffled and completely appalled at her words. A.J then waited backstage without seeing Punk for the main even. She watched them wrestle from the monitor behind the curtains each passing minute making her stomach clench in fear, she didn't want to botch the whole thing and cause Punk a serious injury.
The match went on with Chris dominating John Cena, just taunting him and Punk trying to cheer him on from the apron. They continued but after a while John started to retaliate and soon they both made a tag and Daniel and Punk were in. She watched them beat each other up and throw several moves here and there, but as Punk went for an obvious three count Jericho stopped it and John came in and threw him out. Then John kept punching him as they both made their way up the ramp and backstage.
"Good luck kid," John smirked as he walked off with Chris Jericho
She felt her stomach do summersaults as she watched Daniel and Punk square off for a few minutes before it was her turn to go on. They were going back and forth and it was really hard to tell who would win, but A.J knew who would win -no one. She then was given her cue and her music began to play. She took a deep breath before skipping down to the ring catching everyone's attention.
She skipped around and once she had circled the whole thing she noticed neither had paid attention as they were too busy trying to harm the other. She frowned and climbed up on the apron hoping to get a glance but nothing. She hoped down and thought shortly before lifting one of covers and looking under the ring, she pulled it back down and looked on the other side, nothing. She continued to make her way to where the announce table was located and she smirked upon seeing what she was looking for.
She took the very heavy table out and placed it on the floor, lifting both of the support legs up and making sure it would stand in place. She then placed the table next to the steps and looked at the top post then back at the table. She made her way up the steps and looked down at the table. She was nervous to continued but she knew she had to. She then placed her foot on the bottom rope and pretended to contemplate the situation, after a while she finally climbed all the way to the top and looked down at the table that was on the floor.
She waited for a bit before Daniel came rushing out, "NO! NO! DON'T JUMP."
She looked down at him in disgust but she was sure it came off as a confused expression. She watched as he stood in front of the table and continued to yell, "DON'T JUMP, A.J!" She kept sneering down at him as he continued to tell her don't jump. The whole crowd chanting she wasn't sure if they were saying "Yes" or "Jump" she was too dazed to figure it out. Daniel continued to tell her not to jump and soon she felt the ropes bounce a little and she held onto the top one in order to stay on it.
She noticed Punk desperately running up to stop her holding her wrist, she looked down at him as he muttered something she couldn't quite make out because of Daniel's constant screaming. She then noticed he began to climb the ropes up to her. She looked at him carefully as he explained to her that this was stupid and that she should jump. She then placed her hand on the back of his head and brought him closer to her face and then kissed him. She knew he was supposed to be shocked so he didn't kiss back.
After she pulled away from him he looked at her confused before a huge grin spread on her lips and she pushed him off. She watched her heart pounding as he fell on top of Daniel and the table broke. She however couldn't check on him as she stood on the top of the turnbuckle chanting "YES! YES! YES!"The crowd following along with her. She pretended to be pleased with her handy work but she was truly scared for Punk's safety. They did a reply on the tron and she continued to say the whole "Yes" chant and when the cameras where on her once more she looked down at the two men and laughed continuing her chant.
But out of the corner of her eye she noticed Punk gripping his head and she finally felt her heart stopped
