A/N: We are close to the end of the series of "Forced Together". "Secret" has one more chapter left then the series will be over. Sad, I know. But I have tons of ideas for new AJPunk stories so stay tuned for those after the end of this story. Enjoy the chapter!
July 9, 2018
"Did-did you trip down 12 steps into Malibu
(Malibu, ooh, ooh, ooh,)
So why the hell is there a light that's keeping us forever
Bel Air baby, did you get dressed up,
Pretty pout, pout
While you bottomed out (out, out, out, oh)
I can't stop it when there's chemicals keeping us together
Uh, uh, uh, I'm singing
Whoa
How the mighty fall (hey)
The mighty fall
The mighty fall
They fall in love
How the mighty fall
The mighty fall
The mighty fall
Oh how the mighty fall in love"
AJ and Punk haven't talked since they were both rescued from the elevator.
"AJ, you have to open RAW." Brie says running past AJ down the hall.
"What's going on?" AJ asks.
AJ is about to run after her when she looks at the time and runs back to her locker-room to change into her ring gear then runs to the gorilla to get a mic.
Her music starts and she goes to the ring.
"Money in the Bank is this Sunday. A lot of you are wondering, who will leave Money in the Bank with the Divas championship? Some even wonder… Who will leave Money in the Bank with CM Punk? The answer to both is… AJ Lee! Me! I will leave Money in the Bank with the title and the man that has my heart." AJ says looking to a confused Punk. "Just kidding! But I will leave with what is rightfully mine… The Divas championship. Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock. Time's up, bitch!"
AJ is supposed to drop her mic and go backstage, but instead, Punk gets up and goes into the ring asking for a mic.
"Oh, April. You're trying to say you don't love me anymore, but you do. You always will." Punk says.
"No, you picked Lita over me, I'm not taking that kindly." AJ says.
"But, I dumped Lita, for you." Punk says.
Randy comes out.
"No, don't listen to him, AJ. He's lying to you!" Randy says.
"Stay out of this, Orton!" Punk snaps.
The Bella's music hits and Nikki, instead of Brie, comes out.
"My sister is GM, but is dealing with a major crisis, when we get more information we will tell you all what happened. But she has told me to announce tonight's main event!" She announces. "Punk, how's your knee feeling?"
"Fine, why?" Punk asks.
"Unpack your ring gear, you're going to be in a match!" Nikki announces, before finishing the sentence everyone was cheering. "With AJ! Against the team of Randy Orton and Lita!"
"Hell no! I am not working with him!" AJ snaps.
"Not your decision." Nikki says turning around and walking backstage.
AJ glares at Punk then storms backstage.
"Where the fuck is Brie!?" AJ demands.
"AJ, calm down." Miz says.
"No! I will not calm down!" AJ spats. "Where is that bitch?"
"AJ! It's an emergency!" Cody says running to the divas locker-room.
"What the hell is going on!" AJ asks running after him.
They run into the divas locker-room where Brie, the other divas, some superstars and medics are surrounded around a body.
"Who is that!?" AJ asks.
"It's Kaitlyn." Layla says.
"What!?" AJ asks pushing through the group of people going to Cody's side.
"What happened?" Cody asks.
"She was complaining of stomach pains earlier. I asked her if she should see a medic, but she said she knew why. I asked why and she said I would find out eventually. Then Layla and Paige found her unconscious on the ground, blood around her stomach and groin areas." Brie says. "We don't know why."
"She's fucking pregnant, you morons!" AJ spats. "She's having a miscarriage! Get her to a fucking hospital!"
"Your crooked love is just a pyramid scheme
And I'm dizzy on dreams (and I'm dizzy on dreams)
But if you ask me two's a whole lot lonelier than one
Baby we should have left our love in the gutter where we found it
(Gutter where we found it)
Cause you think, you think your only crime is that you got caught
I'm singing..."
They put Kaitlyn in the ambulance, Cody went with the ambulance.
"AJ, I'm sorry about the match." Brie says.
"It's fine. I'm just worried about Kaitlyn." AJ says.
"How did you know she was pregnant?" Camryn asks.
"I miscarried once. I know every symptom." AJ says.
Punk comes up to them.
"I heard about Kaitlyn, will she be ok?" Punk asks.
"We don't know." AJ says. "I better go prepare for the match." She kisses Punk on the cheek then skips off.
"Thanks for making that match as I asked." Punk says.
"Anything for my friend." Brie says.
They fist bump then Punk leaves.
"Whoa
How the mighty fall (hey)
The mighty fall
The mighty fall
They fall in love
How the mighty fall
The mighty fall
The mighty fall
Oh how the mighty fall in love"
AJ and Punk win the match when Punk GTS Randy.
"That was great! We really proved we work amazingly together!" AJ says excitedly.
"And to think you didn't like the idea earlier." Punk says.
"Well, I just forgot we work well together. Anyway, I'm going to take a shower then go to see Kaitlyn, you want to come?" AJ asks.
"The shower…?" Punk asks.
"No, to visit Kaitlyn." AJ says.
"Oh, sure. I need a shower also." Punk says leaving AJ's locker-room.
"It's getting clear
You'll never coming clean
So let me lock you up inside and swallow, swallow the key"
AJ and Punk walk into Kaitlyn's hospital room with flowers and a teddy bear.
"Hey, Kait." AJ says.
"Hey, AJ." Kaitlyn says.
"How's the baby?" AJ asks.
"Good, completely healthy, surprisingly." Cody says.
"That's wonderful!" AJ says handing Kaitlyn the teddy bear. "You're going to have it, right?"
"Yeah, I'm not divas champ anymore, I can." Kaitlyn says.
They talk for a few more minutes then leave.
July 15, 2018
"Hello?
Yeah I know you said not to call unless I'm dying
But I'm driving and I can't stop staring at my eyelids
But even though my eyes closed, I still see you
I just hope when you see me I'm not see-through
You know how we do
Sometimes I swear, I need a day just for me to lay
With some T and A, but the way we, the way we do is deeper
Baby straight up chemistry DNA
Make me wanna give you every dollar out my B of A
Like, I let her climb on top
I'm either fuckin or workin', so the grind don't stop
They say I got screws missing, well hell, only when I'm missing you
And hell yeah I'm a dick, girl, addicted to you"
It's Money in the Bank and Lita will be defending her title against AJ.
AJ comes out first then Lita.
"Now, Punk, you've been heavily involved in this feud between these two women. Who did you actually pick?" Michael asks.
"AJ, but obviously she doesn't see that." Punk says.
"But, Punk, some would say you've been a jerk to her." JBL says.
"That was the old me." Punk says.
The bell rings and they just stare at each other.
"Punk dumped me because of you, you skank!" Lita yells slapping AJ.
AJ slowly turns her head back to face Lita, she the gives her her crazy look. She tackles her laying punches and kicks to her head and abdomen. But Lita doesn't take that kindly. She eventually gets AJ off of her and gets up slowly. Once she is on one knee, AJ hits her with a shining wizard and tries to pin her, but Lita kicks out.
Lita pushes AJ into the turnbuckle and tries to hit her, but AJ ducks and Lita runs shoulder first into the turnbuckle. AJ grabs Lita's hair and slams her face first onto the mat. AJ tries to pin her again, but she kicks out at one again.
While AJ is arguing with the ref, Lita grabs AJ's leg and trips her so she lands on her face, she tries to pin her but AJ kicks out.
AJ rolls up Lita, but she kicks out.
The lights go out then there is noise then the bell rings the lights come back on and both Lita and AJ look unconscious on the mat. Brie runs out to talk to the ref.
"What just happened!?" Brie asks.
"I don't know. I didn't see or do anything!" The ref says.
Brie gets off of the mat and looks under the apron, no one is there. She goes over to the commentating table.
"What happened!?" Brie asks.
"I have no idea." JBL says.
"Phil! What did you do!?" Brie asks.
"Nothing! I swear." Punk says.
Brie goes into the ring and sees that AJ and Lita are slowly waking up she then asks for a mic.
"This match is being restarted!" Brie announces exiting the ring and going backstage.
AJ gets up before Lita. She goes over to her and puts her in the Anaconda Vice. Lita quickly taps.
"The winner of this match and new Divas Champion is… AJ Lee!" Lillian Garcia announces.
AJ grabs the title and stares at it.
"You're mine again…" AJ whispers.
The whole arena cheers for the new divas champion. Maxine, Summer Rae, Brie, Nikki, Paige and Camryn come out and clap and hug AJ.
Punk takes off his headset and goes over to AJ.
They stare at each other for a few moments, then Punk drops down to one knee and pulls out a black box from his pants pocket.
AJ covers her mouth with her hand as tears begin to fall from her eyes. Lillian comes up and holds a mic for him.
"April Jeannette Mendez, will you marry me, again?" Punk asks.
AJ looks to Brie and Nikki who are trying to hold tears back, they slowly nod their heads and AJ looks back at Punk.
"Yes!" She says through tears into the mic. "Yes! Yes! Yes!"
Punk stands up and AJ hands the title to Brie as she jumps into his arms and kisses him.
After a long kiss, AJ breaks it and jumps down grabbing the mic.
"Even the bests in the world fall in love!" AJ says as Brie hands her her title back.
"Whoa
How the mighty fall (hey)
The mighty fall
The mighty fall
They fall in love
How the mighty fall
The mighty fall
The mighty fall
Oh how the mighty fall in love"
A/N: The song used was "The Mighty Fall" by my favorite band ever Fall Out Boy ft. Big Sean.
Will AJ and Punk have a happy ending?
What will happen at their wedding?
Next chapter will be the final chapter! Review!
