A/N: So here is Chapter 4. Enjoy!
Punk just finished up with his shower. He was shaving and getting ready for tonight with AJ. He wasn't nervous but he knew she was. After everything that happened, with them falling apart, he never knew if they'd ever get back together. But Punk was happy now. He knew how much AJ still loved him despite what he said to her and she knew he felt the same for her. He looked into the mirror and saw his reflection. He looked different, like a redefined man. Not that he changed his personality but he was growing up. He wanted to start a life and he wanted to start it with AJ. But he also knew that AJ's life was just getting started and that she wasn't ready to settle down yet. Punk respected that and just wanted to make tonight special. Even if it's not so soft and loving but more rough and hot, he was going to remind AJ that he isn't going anywhere. He is hers and she is his.
Once Punk finished shaving, he put on AJ's favorite aftershave and did his normal routine. He was in the bathroom for at least thirty minutes after his shower. When he finally finished, he walked out and went back to his master bedroom in where he found the love of his life sound asleep on his bed. Punk paused and felt annoyed at first that she would fall asleep but it kind of made him smile. She looked peaceful and beautiful sleeping in his bed, with her arm draped over her head. Her breathing lightened the room and the light snoring was so adorable. As cute as she was sleeping he wasn't going to allow her to pull that off. Not now.
Punk walked over to his side of the bed and put his phone on the night stand. He didn't bother disturbing her yet. He would glance his eyes over to her sleeping form to watch as her body would rise slowly up and then slowly back down every breath she would take. He ran his hands over his damp shaven head and huffed. He turned his phone silent as he didn't want any callings or texts to disturb him. He kneeled onto the bed and crawled over to her. He sat on his knees and placed his hands on them and sighed. "Oh God how am I going to do this?" he said to himself softly
"AJ" Punk called lightly shaking her "Wake up"
AJ didn't move but that didn't stop him from trying again. This time he shook her a bit harder "AJ you have to wake up now" Punk whispered but she didn't move
Punk huffed and bit his lips. He knew this was going to be a problem. He sat there on his knees for a few seconds thinking until he heard the slightest laugh come from AJ's mouth. Her eyes were still closed but a sudden grin covered her mouth as she knew Punk has given up too quickly. Punk looked at her and smirked. She always has to play games with him.
"AJ are you awake?" Punk said with a bit of humor in his voice
AJ laid there and shrugged. Punk laughed just a little as he knew he wasn't going to get a reasonable response from her.
"Alright come on rise and shine" Punk said as he scooped his arms under her body and tried lifting her but AJ stopped him.
"No" is all she said
Punk placed his hands on his hips and chuckled "Girl what is wrong with you today?" AJ smiled "You're a mess"
AJ finally opened her eyes and looked up into his. She smiled and stretched "I am just too smart for you"
Punk squinted his eyebrows and sighed "Too smart for me. What does that mean?"
AJ laughed lightly "You always fall into my traps and then give up too quickly." She told him "You never can fool me into one"
Punk bit his lip "What are you talking about I knew you were awake the entire time"
AJ rose from the bed and folded her legs. "Sure you did." She said as she patted him on the shoulder.
AJ laughed as she got up from the bed but was quickly pulled back down as Punk grabbed her by her arm and started kissing her roughly. AJ was caught by surprise but soon moved along with him as she bit his bottom lip and placed her hand around his neck. Punk was roughly kissing her, making her realize that she isn't the one who gets to be in charge. She doesn't get to fool him and allow him to fall into her traps. Punk drew his hand alongside her stomach and bit her lip to try to open her mouth wider so he can slip his tongue in but she wasn't allowing it.
"Open" Punk demanded into the forceful kiss
AJ giggled at his command but she wasn't that stupid. He's a man that gets everything he wants but not when it comes to her. He had to work and fight for whatever he wanted out of her.
"Sorry no can do" AJ said as she continued kissing him
Punk growled as he was annoyed that she wouldn't listen to him but he was going to make her do it one way or another. No work needed. Punk pushed AJ's head back into the pillow as his mouth was still latched onto hers and placed his legs over hers. He was trapping her beneath him and this wasn't him being a dick he was being playful but at the same time, he was letting her know not to mess with him. When he says something you should do it. And this goes for anybody.
AJ squealed as she felt her legs tighten as Punk's tangled with hers and he placed his hand on the pillow just above her left shoulder. AJ needed air as she felt low on oxygen but Punk had her trapped. He was taking her breath away. Punk continued kissing her and he placed his other hand to the right of her face to push it to the left side as he wanted access to the right side of her neck. He allowed her to regain her oxygen as he latched onto her neck and bit at her skin.
AJ moaned softly as he did this as she could feel the pain of him biting at her skin. She placed one of her hands over his head to try to regain strength. Punk wouldn't allow her to play with him so he grabbed her hand and pinned it to her side as he held it in place and so he continued biting at her neck. AJ was angry that he did that so she kicked him playfully.
"Why'd you do that?" AJ said as she felt her neck being molested
Punk didn't say a word. He continued biting at her sweet flesh and started hissing as he did it. AJ tried sliding out of his grip that he had on her hand but he tightened it once he felt her trying to escape from it.
"Na Na" Punk said as he started kissing under her neck now.
AJ squirmed "Can I touch you please?" she pleaded
Punk stopped for a moment and looked into her eyes "Nope" is all he said and he went back to kissing her neck.
AJ pouted but soon screamed out in pain once she felt him bit into her skin just under her neck. "Ow that hurts" she whimpered
Punk smirked as she knew that would make her angry but she has to know. AJ moved her head to the opposite direction to block him as she couldn't use her hands as they were trapped. Punk lifted his head and looked into her eyes and chuckled
"What on earth are you doing?" Punk said as he watched her move her head back and forth
AJ stopped and looked at him "I'm getting you back"
Punk laughed "Uh no you don't"
AJ hissed "Yes I do you bit me twice and it hurt thank you very much"
Punk took his right hand and grabbed her chin to stop her head from moving. "You deserved it sweetie"
AJ laughed "Okay maybe I did but you bite like a wild animal."
Punk smirked "You like my wildly animalism" he informed as he still wanted access to her mouth
"Hey AJ look up"
"What-"
Punk attacked her mouth as he slipped in his tongue and this time really took her breath away. He released her hands and cupped her chin. AJ latched her hands around his neck and clawed at his neck skin and he gasped by the pain but he loved it. Punk drew himself down on her, resting his elbows on the sides of her. His legs were still tangled with hers but she happened to slid one out from under him and taps his butt with her foot. Punk lifted up and looked behind him.
"What the-"Punk said
"Got ya" AJ laughed at Punk's expression
Punk looked back at her and laughed too. He started kissing her again and AJ started moaning lightly in his mouth. She released her hands from behind his neck and started slowly sliding her hands under his shirt. Punk felt her hands dangling under his shirt and it sent shivers down his spine.
Punk lifted himself just a little bit to readjust and so he took off his shirt and lowered himself back down. His beautiful tattooed chest and arms were fully exposed and it was a masterpiece. AJ traced her finger tips over his straight edge tattoo and Punk smirked.
"Having fun?" Punk said as he watched her trace his tattoo
AJ smiled "I love your tattoos"
Punk just smiled and leaned down and kissed her again. "You love me more though" he said as he pecked at her lips
"I love every part of you equally" AJ settled on and giggled as Punk slid down and started pecking his lips across her stomach.
"Hey you know that's my tickle spot right?" AJ said trying not to laugh that hard
Punk smirked as he continued kissing across her stomach "I know. That's why I am doing it" he admitted
AJ giggled as Punk placed a big kiss just above her bellybutton and made his way back up to her face and kissed her again. He took his hands and started fondling with her breasts as he knew he loved those things. AJ was still in her wrestling attire so Punk gladly lowered the straps slowly on each side and kissed her in between. AJ was getting inpatient.
"Punk could you hurry this up?" AJ said as she needed him more than ever now
Punk seductively looked at her as he removed her top and traced along her breasts with his tattooed hands.
"You want me?" Punk amusingly asked
"Yes I want you. I need you in me now" AJ replied
Punk smirked as he titled his head and started twisting her two nipples with his fingers. "In a minute" Punk said
AJ squirmed by his touch "No now Punk please" AJ moaned out
Punk smiled and leaned down and sucked on her breasts. He massaged one while he sucked on the other and did the same treatment to the other side. He looked up at AJ in between to see how inpatient she was really getting. She was moaning slightly and Punk was getting harder. He couldn't wait anymore either.
"Phil please" AJ begged this time
"Alight April" Punk responded back as he slid off his shorts and tossed them off the bed
Punk lowered himself back onto AJ and kissed her passionately. He aligned himself at her opening and looked into her eyes
"You ready?" he asked
AJ didn't answer but more gripped onto his shoulders using that as a go signal. Punk nodded and pushed into her and started at a normal pace. AJ gasped as she nearly forgot how he felt but she missed him. She sure felt it.
"Oh God Punk…fuck" AJ moaned out as she gripped his shoulders tighter
Punk picked up the pace and started thrusting into her like there was no tomorrow. "AJ you feel so good" Punk breathlessly hounded
AJ wrapped her legs around Punk's waist and looked into his eyes "Harder Phil…harder please" she begged
Punk quickly obliged as he pounded into her recklessly and could feel her tighten around him. "Oh God I love you" Punk hissed out
AJ's moans were filling his room and she was trying to find the energy to say I love you back "I l-love you t-too Punk" she told him back
Punk smiled happily as he kissed her again. "Faster" AJ told him
Punk felt himself drawing now. He felt himself coming to the end
"AJ I'm going to cum"
"Me too Punk" AJ informed him
Punk sped the pace up and screamed out as he cumed onto her and she did so shortly after. Punk fell on top of her and rested there for a moment trying to catch their breaths.
"My Goodness that was amazing" Punk said as he pushed the few strands of hair off her face
AJ looked up into his eyes and nodded "Yeah it was"
"I love you so much April"
"I love you too Phil" AJ replied back as he smiled and then kissed her
"Oh my look at the time it's past midnight" Punk said as he pointed to the clock
AJ looked at it "That's right. I guess we need to get our sleep. We have a big night tomorrow on Raw"
Punk smiled "Yeah Raw. What's in the script?" he asked knowingly
AJ shrugged "Not too sure. I know I have to address the WWE Universe about Daniel Bryan's behavior but I don't know if that's changed" she said while twirling her hair. "I would hope the board of directors would change it"
Punk rested next to her pulling her closely to him "Whatever they have you do, you'll do fine." AJ nodded "If Daniel gets any ideas, I'll kill him" he then kissed her forehead.
"Well I guess I have to wait and see tomorrow" AJ said as she rested her head on Punk's chest
Punk enlaced his fingers in her hair "Yeah we'll see tomorrow." AJ snuggled up next to him "Let's get some sleep so tomorrow we'll be good as new"
AJ chuckled "Yeah I'm tired. You wore me out"
Punk laughed "Yeah well. You wanted me so you got me"
AJ smiled "Yeah we got each other right?"
Punk nodded "Right. Nothing and no one will tear us apart"
"Good. Goodnight Punk" AJ said as she closed her eyes and fell into sleep mode
"Night my beautiful superstar" Punk whispered back as he drifted off to sleep

Superstars Hotel
Daniel was in the lobby talking on the Payphone.
"Hey you got the footage right?" Daniel said to the person on the phone
"Yeah I have it all laid out." Daniel smirked "I'm going to give it to the WWE video crew tomorrow morning and you're set to go"
"Thank you my friend"
Daniel hung up the phone and smiled. This was going to be great. AJ will not see this coming.
"Who were you talking to?" said the big red machine
"Kane what the hell" Daniel hissed
"I want to know" Kane pointed out
Daniel opened his mouth slightly "Why are you always in my business? It's creeping me out"
"Because we are the tag team champions and I am your friend" Kane said back
Daniel shook his head "Well you haven't been acting like a friend."
Kane shrugged "Why because I'm trying to help you? That's not being a friend?"
Daniel thumped his foot "When did I ever need your help Kane? Huh?" Kane bit his lip "That's right. I never did so leave me alone" Daniel said as he started walking down the hall
Kane walked behind him and stopped him "Daniel look I'm sorry alright. I just worry about you that's all"
Daniel paused "Well I don't need you to worry. I'm fine" Daniel started walking again
Kane stopped him again "No Daniel you're not. You are acting different"
Daniel rolled his eyes "Why because we don't spend time together anymore. I told you Kane I have other things to do"
Kane huffed "No because you are too caught up in this whole AJ Lee costing you your title. It's getting around"
Daniel panted "HOW MANY TIMES DO I- wait, what do you mean it's getting around?"
Kane threw his hands up "People are starting to talk. Tomorrow is Raw and AJ Lee is going to address you about your behavior"
Daniel smirked "Well isn't that good news"
Kane bowed his head "No Daniel it's not. People are worried about her and think she's not going to be safe doing this"
Daniel growled "And who are these people may I ask?"
"You know superstars. I heard Jericho talking earlier to Kofi, Randy, and Sheamus and I heard AJ's name being mentioned"
Daniel got angry "JERICHO! I hate that guy"
"Daniel it's not his fault. People care about AJ. She is sweet and not to forget our boss"
Daniel sucked in his teeth "Oh so now everyone is going to protect her from me? Is that where this is going?"
Kane shrugged "I don't know but they don't want to see her get hurt. And you shouldn't want that either"
Daniel laughed "Well I do because she cost me my world title at-"
"Daniel enough with that" Kane interrupted "AJ was playing a role of being your girlfriend. She did what she had to do to follow script"
Daniel shook his head "She was a terrible girlfriend and she went out of script. I told her to stay away from the apron so I wouldn't be distracted and what does she do, she stands right near it"
Kane placed his hands on his hips and sighed "Daniel she was just getting into the WWE. It was her first onscreen storyline. What did you expect her to do?"
"I expected her to follow directions" Daniel firmly said "Her stupidity cost me my world title"
Kane licked his lips "First off it wasn't her stupidity that cost you your title "Kane pointed out "It was yours"
Daniel got frustrated "How was it mines? She acted unprofessional and her faulty actions costed me my title and that is my stupidity?"
"Well yeah. You were her boyfriend. You should have laid down the rules more strictly. She was new to the business and her unprofessionalism was due to your stupidity" Kane shot back
Daniel huffed and ran his hand over his eyes "Well tomorrow night I am going to address her and I promise you, she will not be leaving happy"
"Daniel what are you planning?" Kane suspiciously asked
Daniel smirked "Let me just tell you that you should watch tomorrow night. You don't want to miss a thing"
Kane panicked "Daniel please"
"Bye Kane" Daniel happily waved and walked away leaving his partner Kane confused and worried. What did Daniel have in store for AJ Lee?
xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX
"Morning" Punk said into AJ's ear as he held her close
AJ smiled once she heard his voice "Morning"
Punk looked over at the clock "It's almost ten. We should start getting up. We have to head over to Raw"
AJ moaned "But I'm so comfortable"
Punk laughed "I am too babe but we have to get over to Raw"
AJ huffed "Alright" she said as she pulled Punk's arms off from around her but was quickly grabbed again by Punk
"Hey no one said you could leave" Punk informed her as he pulled her to his chest again
AJ giggled "You said we had to get up"
Punk nodded "Yeah but I was enjoying holding you"
AJ laughed as she felt Punk's hands rub across her stomach "Well you can hold me later but let's get up and get ready"
Punk chuckled "Fine but we aren't done here"
"I didn't say we were" AJ gestured
Punk smiled as he removed his arms from around her and got up from bed. AJ got up as well and stretched. Her bones cracked too which made Punk react in a way.
"Ew was that your back that just cracked?" Punk asked unsettled
AJ laughed "Yeah it was. Felt good"
Punk nodded "Not as good as last night though" he reminded her as he started walking to the bathroom
AJ punted her lips "No last night was a better feeling for sure" she jerked out
Punk was in the bathroom doing his morning routine. Went to the bathroom, brushed his teeth, and washed his face. Once he was done AJ went in and did the same. Punk went into the kitchen and made his juice and once AJ was out she made herself pancakes.
"Do you always have to juice?" AJ asked as she watched him guzzle down the drink
Punk smirked "Uh yes. It keeps me energized"
AJ placed a pancake in her mouth "I thought I kept you energized" she said as she started spitting bits of pancake onto the table.
Punk chuckled "Please sallow before you speak babe" he said as he wiped the food particles from the table
AJ's phone beeped and she looked at it. She seemed to have gotten a text from the WWE board of directors.
"I have a meeting with the WWE board of directors at two" AJ informed Punk as she took her last bite of her pancake.
Punk titled his head "Did they say what they were meeting you about?"
AJ shook her head "No they just said to meet them at the arena at two"
Punk nodded "I wonder what they want to talk to you about"
AJ got up and washed her plate "It's probably regarding tonight's segment with Bryan"
Punk looked over at her "You worried at all. You know about tonight?" he asked
AJ shrugged "Not really. I was told last week I was just going to address his behavior and then put him in a match against Orton. What's there to be worried about?"
Punk shrugged "Just asking. You know Daniel. He is always trying to cause drama"
AJ raised her hand "Yeah that's what he is probably going to do."
Punk laughed "You just ignore him and let him know whose boss"
AJ laughed back "Yeah. I'm the boss. I'll lay down the rules"
"That's right" Punk said. "You are tough inside and out. You'll do great"
AJ smiled as she went to hug Punk "This is why I fell in love with you." Punk smiled "You always know what to say to make me smile"
Punk hugged her back "I'll always be here for you no matter what. You know that right?"
AJ looked up at him and nodded "Yeah I know. Thanks Phil"
Punk kissed her on her forehead "Always" he said
AJ smiled as she knew Punk would always love her no matter what. Nothing would change his feelings for her.
"Alright go get dressed and we will head to the gym" Punk told her
"Okay" AJ said as she walked to the bedroom and got dressed
Punk got dressed after her and the bus dropped them off at the gym closest to the arena. Punk and AJ walked hand in hand into the gym and saw a few superstars and divas walking out.
"Hey look who it is WWE's love birds" A superstar called out. It just so happened to be one of CM Punk's greatest rivals John Cena
"What's happening John Boy" Punk responded back in a not so pleasant tone
AJ pulled on Punk's arm "Come on Punk let's go over there" she tugged on him but he kept on walking towards John
"Oh nothing just gaining my strength for tonight for whomever I face" John then looked over at AJ who was bowing her head "Who am I facing tonight, AJ?"
AJ didn't look at John at all. She couldn't bear to look at another one of her ex's. "I'm not sure yet John" she said still staring into the ground
John smirked "You're not going to look at me?" he started making his way over to her "AJ?"
Punk stepped in front of her and blocked John from stepping in front of AJ. "Step back John" Punk said getting into his face
The other superstars in divas were staring at the event that was taking place in front of their eyes. A look of anger took over John's face as he stared into Punk's eyes. John started to back away and left the building.
"Come AJ" Punk directed AJ as they walked over to the weight machines and started lifting.
Punk and AJ were near each other the entire time and Punk even guided AJ in lifting a little more weight than she is use to lifting. AJ was feeling great now and so she packed up and headed back to the bus with Punk.
Before AJ got to walk out the door AJ's former best friend Kaitlyn stopped her. "Uh AJ may I have a minute?"
Punk stopped and nodded as he allowed AJ to take all the time she needed. I'll be in the bus babe" Punk said as he kissed her forehead and walked out
AJ faced Kaitlyn and shrugged "So what's up?"
Kaitlyn played with her fingers "I just wanted to see how you're doing. We haven't talked in a while"
AJ nodded "I know and I wish we could hang out more but I have a very busy job being the GM of Raw but I assure you I'm fine"
Kaitlyn smiled "Well I understand that. I just hope someday we can get back to being the chickbusters of the WWE. I miss that you know?"
AJ nodded "I would love to chill sometime. Maybe you can chill with me and Punk and you can get to know each other better. I know you two haven't really spent much time together"
Kaitlyn smiled again "Yeah that'd be nice. So I guess I'll see you tonight then"
"Yeah for sure, see you later" AJ said as she walked out the building
AJ walked out the building to find Punk leaning against his bus on his phone "Hey babe what you doing?"
Punk looked at her and slipped his phone into his pocket "Oh I was just reading through some hate mail from insecure fans" he laughed
AJ felt bad "Aw babe are you still getting hate mail?"
Punk nodded "Yep but it never gets to me."
AJ smiled and kissed him "Well it shouldn't. You're the best in the world"
Punk smirked "That's right. I'm the best in the world. Anyways let's head over to the arena. It's almost two"
AJ nodded "Yeah sure let's go"
AJ and Punk walked onto the bus and they headed to the arena. They were only fifteen minutes away from it so they were right on schedule. When they entered the superstar's parking lot, Both Punk and AJ got their belongings and headed into the arena. They were greeted by WWE staff.
"Good afternoon Mr. Punk and Ms. Lee" said a WWE security guard
"Good afternoon" both Punk and AJ greeted back
"Oh Ms. Lee, Vince McMahon is waiting for you in your office" said the officer
"Thank you I got the message" AJ responded back
Punk held AJ's hand and they walked in and headed to the office together
AJ stopped when they reached her office "You don't have to stay Punk, I got it from here"
Punk shook his head "AJ I want to know what is happening tonight. I am staying and I don't care what Vince says about it, I'm staying"
AJ hesitantly nodded "Alright then" AJ then opened the door to her office and walked in, Punk walking in right behind her
"AJ, Punk how are you two doing this afternoon?" Vince McMahon asked happily
"Why you so gloomy Mr. Chairmen?" Punk asked once he saw how nice Vince was being
"Ah Punk always have something smart to say don't you?" Vince pointed out
Punk smirked "Well that's me alright, Mr. Smarty. I am the best"
Vince smirked "Well I assure you that if you don't start treating me with the respect that I deserve then I will be doing my best to make sure that your WWE Championship will be far away from you"
Punk hissed "Oh is that a threat Vincent?"
Vince shot back sternly "Absolutely Phillip"
"Alright enough please" AJ stepped in "Punk please calm down and take a walk" AJ said giving him the eye of concern
Punk looked at her and nodded. He walked out eyeing Vince and walked out. AJ closed the door.
"Sorry Vince he is just a bit tangy from earlier. Ran into John back at the gym and you know they have this issue with each other that will probably never be resolved" AJ informed her boss
Vince agreed "I understand AJ. Thanks for clearing that up but as for what I want to talk to you about. Tonight you are going to be addressing Daniel Bryan you do know that right?"
AJ nodded "Yes I got the text earlier today"
Vince nodded "Great but there is a little change with how you will be addressing him"
AJ looked confused "What do you mean?"
Vince walked over the desk and picked up the script "Well you are not only addressing his behavior but you are going to call him out and force him to give up his tag titles because of his anger problems. Are you getting me?"
AJ looked at him confused "But Vince, me and Daniel aren't on good terms. I don't want to anger him even more than he already is"
Vince walked towards AJ and rested his hands on her shoulders "Well I think it would make good T.V and besides, someone needs to put Daniel in his place and who better then you"
AJ nodded "Sure I guess"
"Great so good luck tonight" Vince smiled and walked out of her office
AJ placed her hand on her forehead and sighed. What was she about to get herself into? AJ walked out of her office and saw CM Punk drinking a Pepsi.
"What he say?" Punk asked as he took a sip of his Pepsi
"I'm not only addressing Daniel about his anger but forcing him to hand over his tag title. I don't know how this is going to go" AJ started shaking
Punk saw her shaking and hugged her "AJ its going to be fine. He won't hurt you. I won't let him"
AJ looked up at him "You promise?"
Punk smiled "I promise"
"Okay well you go get ready because tonight I'm putting you in a match with John Cena so you can get retribution on him"
Punk laughed "Great. It's about time"
"Yeah well the show starts in a few hours so you go get ready and I'll stop by and warm you up" AJ insisted as she drew her finger up his chest
Punk was so turned on he dropped his Pepsi "Oh uh definitely come by. Can't wait"
AJ laughed "I'm sure you can't." AJ kissed Punk before she walked back into her office and Punk smiled as he walked to his locker room. As he was on his way to his locker room Chris Jericho ran up to him.
"Hey Punk you got a minute?" Jericho asked as he caught Punk's arm
Punk turned around and held his beef in "What you want Chris. I have a match to prepare for and a certain somebody coming by soon" he smirked when thinking about her
"I know it won't take long. To just put aside any hostility we have between us for tonight I just want you hear me out" Punk folded his arms "I want you to know that AJ is a target tonight"
Punk just stared at him "A target? What you mean a target?" Punk asked concerned
"I had no intentions to get in the middle of this but Daniel Bryan is out to get your girlfriend AJ. This entire WrestleMania drama is getting to him" Jericho alerted Punk
Punk looked uneasy "Well what did he say?" he asked
Jericho shrugged "I don't know every detail just that he has something planned for tonight. Just keep an eye on her. I will do my best too to you know keep her safe" Jericho said as he patted him on the back and then started walking away
Punk bowed his head and closed his eyes "Hey Chris" Punk called out and Jericho turned around and looked at Punk "Thanks man for alerting me and willing to look out for AJ. I appreciate it"
Jericho slightly smiled and nodded and walked down the hall. Punk entered his locker room and got onto his cell and texted AJ. He was going to send the text to AJ but a sudden knock was at his door. Punk got up and opened it.
"Hey babe I'm here" AJ said as she kissed Punk on the cheek and stepped into his locker room
"Oh good you're here. I have to talk to you" Punk said as he pulled her in and shut the door
"What's going on Punk? You're breathing heavily" AJ said as she heard his erratic breathing
"Do you know that Daniel is targeting you tonight?" Punk informed her worriedly
AJ stared "I know he is out to get me but I don't know about tonight. Why what did you hear?"
"Jericho came up to me and said Daniel is planning on making you a target tonight. He as am I am worried about your well-being" Punk softly said as he stroked her cheek
AJ sighed "I know but I will handle this. Like you said I am tough inside and out so I will handle Bryan tonight. Just focus on your match with Cena and don't worry about me"
Punk placed his hands over his head "Okay but if something happens tonight I am storming out there and kicking Daniel's ass"
AJ nodded "Okay but don't do anything that would trouble you and your title. Vince is strict on you"
Punk smirked "That's not a surprise AJ. I'm not worried one bit about Vince. I'm worried about you and I'm going to be here for you"
AJ kissed his lips "Go get em' tiger" AJ growled as she then slapped his ass
Punk grinned "I'll be thinking about you" and Punk grabbed his title and headed to the ring
AJ huffed and walked back to her office. Punk's music hit and he walked out. Cena's music hit and he walked out to a mix reaction from the crowd. The match was underway and Cena was getting the upper hand on Punk. Jabbing Punk left to right, John body slammed Punk and went for the cover but Punk countered out for a two. After a good ten minutes of Cena dominating most of the match, Punk got the upper hand as he got Cena into the corner and kneed him with the running knee and then the bulldog. Punk lifted John for the Go to sleep but John reversed it and lifted Punk for the attitude adjustment. Punk reversed it now and kicked Cena in the back of the head. Cena was out and Punk went for the pin but got a two count. Punk lifted John for the G.T.S and connected it and pinned John for the win. Punk celebrated and proudly shouted Best in the World.
Punk headed backstage and walked over to get a water bottle until Daniel Bryan came up clapping his hands slowly.
"Congratulations Punk I knew you could beat Cena" Daniel cockily said
"Unless you're here to get the biggest ass beating of your life, then I suggest you leave" Punk told Bryan as a warning
Daniel started laughing hysterically "Oh but Punk, I can't leave without going out and being addressed by your beloved ex-girlfriend AJ Lee"
Punk looked confused "What you mean ex- girlfriend. AJ is my girlfriend not an ex like you"
Daniel shook his head "Well right now she is your girlfriend but after tonight she will be nothing more to you but a waste of a person whom you spent half your life with"
Punk started clenching his fists "How dare you Daniel-"
"How dare me? How dare you Punk. AJ Lee cost me my world title at WrestleMania. She is a liability to this company and to your WWE Championship" Daniel pointed to his title
Punk looked down to his title "She is not a liability. You are just jealous of her and me"
Daniel gestured "Oh Yeah like I'm jealous of You and AJ who quite frequently aren't anything like me"
Punk wiped the sweat from his lip "That makes zero sense-"
"Oh but it does. I am WWE's best technical wrestler. I am the best. I am the best wrestler. I am the most respected wrestler. And most of all, me and AJ are a way better couple than you and her will ever be" Daniel spoke out
Punk growled out and pushed Daniel and he fell to the floor "You stupid bastard"
Daniel grabbed the back of his head and hissed "If I were you, I would pay close attention to tonight. You aren't going to be leaving happy. Daniel said in an angry tone as he got up and walked off
Punk was huffing and puffing and ran his hand over his head "God damn it" Punk said to himself" Punk picked up his title and walked back to his locker room
It was the end of the show and the AJ Lee confronting Daniel Bryan was the main segment for the night. AJ stepped out of her office and headed to the ring. As much as she wasn't comfortable doing this, she knew she had to. AJ's music hit and the crowd roared with cheers as she skipped her way to the ring. AJ grabbed the microphone and talked about Daniel Bryan.
"As you all know Daniel Bryan hasn't been acting professionally as of lately." The crowd cheered in agreement "And I think that as the general manager of Raw, that I should let Daniel know that he has been getting way out of line." AJ nodded "I think Daniel should be told to his face in front of you, the WWE Universe what should have been done a long time ago" The crowd cheered "So Daniel please come to the ring" AJ said as she awaited her ex-boyfriend.
Daniel's music hit and Daniel came out holding the back of his head. AJ looked uneasy but she remained unfrighten.
Daniel stepped into the ring and stood just in front of her, microphone in hand. A slight smile covered his face
"Well AJ long time no see. The last time you and I were this close to each other was when I dumped you after WrestleMania after you cost me my world title"
AJ looked at him and just allowed him to air everything
"Well Daniel despite what happened then that has nothing to do with your anger now and so I am telling you to control it or else I will be forced to strip you of your tag title"
Daniel's expression turned into laughter "Oh well AJ I guess we have forgotten so much since then have we because it was you who triggered my anger ever since you threatened me to destroy CM Punk at money and the bank"
AJ looked confused and the crowd was too "W-what are you talking about I didn't threaten you to destroy CM Punk"
"Oh AJ like always trying to play the innocent sweet girl that everyone cares so much for. Tell everyone AJ about how you told me last week how bad you are going to screw Punk out of the title" Daniel pointed out "Or better yet, tell Punk how you played him just like you played me when you cost me my title at this company's biggest event, WrestleMania."
AJ didn't know what to say. The crowd was in awe.
"Oh what, a bit confused still. Oh well no need to think any harder because I just so happened to have footage of you saying how you are going to screw Punk out of the title at the money in the bank PPV. Roll it"
"Video Footage"
"Listen Daniel I want you to know that you deserve to be the WWE Champion not Punk. I never wanted it to come down to this but when I was named the special guest referee at Money in the Bank; I had to do the right thing. I called the match down the middle and CM Punk regained the title. I know I let you down and I honestly, I wanted you to win and beat CM Punk for the WWE Championship because truthfully, and I never told this to Punk but, you are indeed my Best in the World."
The video footage was cut off "You see AJ? Don't you remember that? The night after Money in the Bank you ran up to me and confessed?
AJ was frozen in place. The crowd was still in shock
"But of course that was last year. It's a new year now and things might have changed. Feelings may have spurred. So maybe this recent video of AJ talking on the phone to me will matter a lot more. Roll it"
"Daniel, I am really sorry for everything that I have done to you in the past and I just want to make everything up to you. I want you to know that I will grant you a WWE Championship match against CM Punk at WWE's next PPV being Extreme Rules and I will promise you that you will be the new WWE Champion. I always wanted you to be the champion, never Punk. I always
loved you and Punk needs to be destroyed of being the WWE Champion so I am willing to work with you and do whatever it take to make you WWE's top superstar and the next WWE Champion because Daniel, I love you. You are the BEST!"
Daniel started to laugh so hard he almost fell. The crowd started to boo
"So does any of that ring a bell AJ? Huh? All I ever wanted was for you to make me the WWE Champion but you couldn't even keep your promise. You lied behind my back and you did the same thing with your boyfriend CM Punk"
AJ was crying now
"Tell me AJ, is Punk really the Best in the World or am I because I'm a little more than confused" Daniel looked over at AJ was just crying "Oh what, you're crying now. Please AJ this is what you do. You ruin people's lives and then try to make people feel sympathy for you. Well guess what AJ, nobody will ever care about you again because if you screwed me out of not just one but two titles and then tried to with Punk, then you could just so screw just about anyone you want to as long as you have power on this show"
AJ was shaking.
"And I will be here to make sure you will never screw another person again."
AJ cried as she didn't know what to do. She couldn't face Daniel and couldn't face Punk or anyone backstage. She walked out of the ring and ran backstage. She bowed her head and ran back to her office as Bryan was left in the ring smirking and chanting Yes! Yes! Yes! As the crowd chanted along with him.
AJ slammed the door shut and crawled onto the couch and cried for heart out. She heard a loud knock on her door and she hoped it wasn't Daniel.
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT ABOUT AJ?" Punk stormed in and got in his girlfriend's face
"P-Punk I'm so glad it's you I-"
"Don't hug me tell me that wasn't true AJ" Punk was hot as fire "Tell me"
AJ was shaking dramatically "I'm sorry Punk I felt like I owed him something and I-"
"So what you thought you could screw me out of my rightfully earned title?" Punk fired back
"I just wanted him to drop the whole costing him his world title thing. I had to say something" AJ said trying to calm him down
"I loved you I gave you everything and you pulled this trick with me are you really that crazy AJ?" Punk heated up
"Punk please what happened to always being there for me no matter what?" AJ said as she tried to remind him of his promise
"Of course I meant that AJ but you lied to me and after everything Daniel said it was all true. You screwed him and then were going to screw me" Punk pointed out
AJ grabbed his arm "No Punk my plan was to never screw you out of the title. I was just trying to get Daniel to stop nudging me"
Punk pulled his arm away from AJ "I HEARD THE FOOTAGE AJ. You said you loved him and wanted him to win the title at money and the bank and you expect me to think you said all of that just to make him to stop nudging you? Are you nuts?" Punk panted
AJ's heart pounded faster than ever now "Punk you have to trust me I love you more than anyone you know that. We love each other"
Punk stared into her eyes and he saw the glow in them. She was getting into his head. "I loved you like I loved no other woman before and you treated me like a fool out there."
AJ shook her head "No Punk-"
"I sacrificed everything for you and I wanted you and I to be something more. I wanted us to be together forever but you made me question you more than ever now"
AJ welled up "I am still the same woman you love. Last night, the night before, our match the other day, that was all real"
Punk hissed "It was real. But I guess that's as real as it gets because your love for me is just fake and I will not allow you to take advantage of me like that"
AJ was scared to lose Punk so she grabbed the side of his cheek "Listen to me Punk, I love you. Daniel is a jerk to me, he is trying to destroy us and like you told me earlier, he was making me a target. That footage means nothing to me and I love you now and forever"
Punk looked into her eyes and stared at her with anger. He wanted to believe her but he couldn't. "That footage changed every way I feel about you AJ, and I don't think we can do this anymore."
AJ panicked "No please Punk don't break up with me please" AJ begged
Punk's eyes started tearing up. He didn't want to break her heart but she broke his, into too many broken pieces that are just too many to be put back together.
"I just need time to think." Punk said lastly as he stormed out of her office leaving her crying
Punk walked out crying himself and although he hardly cries, leaving AJ was something that made him shed all the tears in the world.
Punk walked out to his bus and tossed everything off the bed. From all of AJ's clothes to her items, he just tossed it all aside and laid in bed. AJ was frozen in her office still trying to figure out what just happened. AJ sat on her couch and cried into her lap. She heard footsteps creep up in front of her and she looked up to find Chris Jericho standing in front of her. He looked concerned. He bent down and rested his hand on her shoulder and nodded letting her know everything was going to be alright. AJ shook her head No and Chris stroked her cheek and nodded Yes. She latched onto him and went into his embrace and he hugged her tightly back. They reminded there for a few minutes until Chris grabbed her bags and motioned her without saying a word to come with him. AJ just followed not knowing what he was doing but she went with him all still while crying.
A/n: Whoa so here is the end of a long Chapter 4. Hope you enjoyed this and oh no. AJ's secret has been revealed. She is a screw job alright. Will Punk forgive AJ? Is Daniel's revenge on AJ just getting started? And where is Chris going with AJ? Find out in the next chapter. Please review and tell me what you think. Thanks!
