The next morning

"Come on Punk we got to get up now. We have to head to the arena?" AJ said trying to release herself from Punk's grueling grip that he had around her.

"Oh but I'd rather stay here and hold you" Punk ignored her request

AJ laughed "Well you can hold me later but right now we got to get ready"

Punk tightened his grip "I want to hold you now" he chuckled hearing her pant.

"You've held me all night. Now we got to go to the arena. I don't want to get a phone call from Mr. McMahon. AJ said in hopes he would understand her position as General Manager of Raw.

"Ah let O' Vinny Mac wait. He needs to phone call his idiotic daughter" he said kissing her neck.

"Punk" AJ said not amused

Punk halted "What, she is"

AJ huffed and pulled his arms away. "Get up Punk now"

Punk laid there and watched her. "Come make me"

Seriously! AJ thought to herself.

"Fine" AJ said marching over to him and pulling him out of bed…but he would not budge.

"Come on Punk seriously get up. We don't have much time" AJ told him as she continued trying to pull him.

"Oh you can do better than that sweetcheeks" Punk smiled.

AJ stopped and smacked his shoulder "I'm not weak Punk"

Punk agreed "I know you're not weak AJ. But you aren't living up to being strong right now"

That set AJ off. She grabbed Punk by his shirt collar and practically yanked him off the bed, landing him on the floor. She used all her strength which tore Punk's shirt in half. Punk couldn't believe it.

"Whoa you must be really angry" Punk said still in shock.

"Obviously" AJ shot back. "Now get ready, we have to go now" she said glaring at him and walking out of the room.

"I'm going to get you for this later you know" Punk warned her.

"Whatever"

Punk smirked and got up, taking his shirt off and throwing on a new one. He put on a pair of jeans and his sneakers. He walked out of the room and walked into the kitchen where he saw AJ talking to Jake.

Punk grabbed a juice from his refrigerator and drank it. He leaned his hand on the counter while drinking it, staring at AJ the entire time. She looked so sexy in her shorts.

Punk walked up to AJ and Jake and joined in the conversation. He placed his hands in his pockets and shrugged.

"What are you two talking about?" Punk asked suspiciously.

AJ looked at him and bowed her head. She couldn't help but smirk.

Punk looked at her and noticed the smirk. Punk was curious.

"Well…"

"We were just talking about how cute you are" Jake joked.

Punk smacked him in the back of the head playfully "Shut up"

AJ giggled "Okay Punk, we were just talking about how fussy you are in the morning. That is all"

Punk looked at her and then at Jake who nodded in agreement. Punk smirked and walked over to AJ who was looking at her phone.

"You know, I'm not that fussy in the morning" Punk falsely admitted.

AJ bit her lip "Mhm"

Punk laughed "Really I'm not, I just love being with you"

AJ placed her phone in her pocket and gave Punk a hug "Me too Punk"

Punk hugged her back. "You ready to go" he asked.

AJ nodded "I've been ready!"

They both got off the bus and headed into the arena. There they saw a couple of the superstars and divas and backstage crew.

"AJ Punk how are you guys, where have you been?" Kane walked up to them seeing how they just walked in.

AJ turned around and smiled "Hey Kane we're good. We just had a busy week that's all"

Kane looked at Punk who looked unsettled at the moment. AJ was relaxed though.

"Oh okay that's understandable. How are you Punk?" Kane asked.

Punk smiled and nodded "Fairly well, if you can excuse us, AJ has a meeting with Vince" Punk lightly grabbed her arm tugging her to come. AJ pulled back.

"Punk hey what's wrong with you?" AJ asked worried.

Kane was confused. "Is everything alright?"

AJ nodded "Yeah everything is fine. Uh, Kane if you don't mind, can you give Punk and I a moment. I'll catch you later"

Kane nodded "Sure thing. See you later guys" and Kane walked off.

AJ looked back at Punk "What's the matter Punk, why so edgy?"

"AJ I don't want people knowing what happened with the baby. It will cause a big problem here. Especially with our careers." Punk said worriedly.

AJ looked down and huffed. "I know Punk I'm sorry. I didn't think how this could affect us. What about Chris?"

Punk scratched his head "I don't even want to tell Chris. It's complicated."

"Punk we can't keep this a secret from Chris. He is our friend and he deserves to know what happened." AJ told Punk.

"So we might as well make an announcement to the world right? Punk asked frustrated.

"No Punk it's just that, Jericho doesn't deserve to be lied to. Especially since this could have possibly been his child. He deserves to know."

Punk placed his hands on his hips and stomped his foot. "Okay fine. But no one else. Agreed?"

AJ nodded "Yes Punk"

"Okay let's go"

Once Punk and AJ had reached the office, they walked in and found a note sitting on the desk. AJ picked it up and read it.

"What does it say?" Punk asked

AJ's eyes gazed the note. She shook her head. She couldn't believe it.

"AJ what is it. What does the note say?" Punk asked again seeing how startled she was.

"Punk I have another segment with…"

"With who?" Punk looked at the note.

"Daniel Bryan!"

Punk gasped and held his forehead. "Okay AJ don't panic. We just have to get through it alright"

"Get through it… Punk Daniel knows this was his baby. If he finds out I killed it, he will probably do something bad to me and and-"

Punk pulled her into his chest "Shh AJ relax. It will be okay. Just what does the note say you have to do?"

AJ continued to read it. "It says I have to punish him"

Punk looked confused "Punish him for what?"

AJ realized "It seems as if last week when you and I were absent, Daniel got involved in Jericho's match and beat him up continuously;

"Seriously! That little bearded troll" Punk muttered under his breath.

"So I have to punish him by forcing him into a 3 on 1 handicap match with the Shield"

Punk smiled "Ha good"

"Uh Punk, the big problem here" AJ reminded him.

Punk huffed "I know AJ. This is going to be hard but trust me, if Daniel lays a finger on you, I will be there even if I don't belong in the segment. He won't touch you"

AJ smiled and nodded "Okay" and she hugged Punk.

"Now I'm going to go get ready for later on so just sit here and relax okay?"

AJ nodded "Okay Punk I'll see you later"

Punk smiled "Oh yes you will" and Punk walked out of her office.

AJ shook her head and lightly chuckled. She sat down on the couch but struck herself back up once she heard the door knock. AJ placed her phone on the desk and walked up to the door, opening it.

"Hey AJ how are you doing?"

"Chris" AJ said with excitement. "I'm good and you?"

Chris smiled "Fairly well." She smiled "May I come in?" Chris asked. "Sure" and Chris walked in.

AJ closed the door and walked back over to the couch and sat down. "You want to sit?" she asked patting the cushion next to her. Chris walked over and took a seat.

"What's on your mind Chris, anything new?" AJ asked flipping through the script.

"Uh nothing new AJ. I wanted to see how you were doing" Chris said with an uneasy feeling.

AJ looked at him "What you mean?"

"Well you're pregnant and I want to see how you're holding up." AJ's heart started to race. "Is that baby giving you kicks in there?" Jericho lightly gestured.

AJ was frozen. She didn't know how to respond to that. "Uh yeah the baby's fine." AJ terribly lied and Chris noticed how uneasy she looked.

Jericho placed his hand on her shoulder "AJ is everything alright? You kind of froze when I asked about your baby"

AJ could feel her muscles tighten. She couldn't move at all. "I- uh"

Jericho was getting worried "AJ is everything alright, do you want me to get Punk?"

AJ shook her head "Listen Chris this is going to be hard for me to say but- but"

Chris gently turned her face to meet his blue eyes "AJ, if something is bothering you tell me. I won't judge you or anything. What's wrong?"

Tears started pouring out of AJ's eyes "Chris, the baby is d-dead" she said now bowing her head in shame.

Chris froze "Dead?! AJ what do you mean the baby is dead?"

AJ sobbed uncontrollably "The baby was Daniel's. It wasn't Punk's. I-I didn't want to have a baby with Daniel so I killed it when Punk and I were having hardcore sex the other night. I didn't want to do it but I did it so Punk and I could be together forever. I'm sorry Chris I'm so sorry" AJ cried out.

Jericho was so shocked. He licked his lips and took a deep breath. He brought AJ into his chest "Shh it's okay AJ don't be upset. Just relax." Jericho said stroking his hands through her silky hair.

AJ grasped onto his shirt and shook "It's not okay. If Daniel finds out I killed his baby, he will probably do something terrible to me and I can't deal with that Chris"

AJ rested his chin on her head and rubbed her back trying to relax her "Shh AJ just relax, Daniel is not going to hurt you nor find out. Okay just calm down and let's get through tonight."

AJ nodded and lifted herself up off Chris' chest. Jericho wiped her tears away with his thumb.

"Now what do you have planned tonight for Daniel?" Jericho asked.

"I have a segment with Daniel where I have to punish him by placing him in a 3 on 1 handicap match because he got involved in your match last week."

Jericho nodded "Alright just relax. Whatever you do, don't tell Daniel"

"That wasn't my intention but I have a feeling he will find out. It's Daniel he always finds out" AJ said, tears starting to roll down her face again.

"Don't worry he won't. Just get through tonight" Jericho put on a smile for her.

AJ smiled back and nodded "Chris thanks for understanding. This wasn't easy for me to say and I appreciate you being here for me no matter what"

Jericho smiled and kissed her forehead "I'll always be here for you AJ, remember that"

AJ smiled "Thanks Chris and-"

AJ's sentence was cut off by a large noise coming from outside AJ's office. Chris got up and opened the door to see. No one was there except for a led pipe on the floor in front of her door. Jericho picked it up and looked at it.

"What is it?" AJ asked concerned.

Chris turned around and held the pipe "Just a led pipe. Must've fell from somewhere"

AJ nodded and Chris placed it on the couch.

Daniel's POV

I was walking down the hallway where AJ's office had been and heard two people talking. I slowly walked up to the door and rested my ear to it. It was AJ and Jericho.

"Chris the baby is dead"

My eyes grew wide once I heard those words come out of AJ's mouth.

"The baby was Daniel's. It wasn't Punk's. I-I didn't want to have a baby with Daniel so I killed it when Punk and I were having hardcore sex the other night. I didn't want to do it but I did it so Punk and I could be together forever."

She killed our baby because it was mine. She couldn't stand the fact that she was having a baby with me so she killed it. She wanted to stay with Punk forever. She wanted to get revenge on me after all those years. That is what killing the baby would have done. It would have killed me.

"It's not okay. If Daniel finds out I killed his baby, he will probably do something terrible to me and I can't deal with that Chris"

If she thinks that what I've done to her in the past was bad, then she must be a real stupid bitch. I will get her back. I will hurt everyone she loves. I will kill anyone who gets in my way just so I can get my revenge on that greedy, pathetic, worthless slut AJ Lee. I will get my revenge. And AJ will just have to deal with it.

I clenched my fists and tried so hard not to scream out in anger. I wanted to walk in there and strangle that bitch. It took everything for me to not so I wouldn't have to ruin my revenge plan. I was so furious though. I wasn't going to leave peacefully. I walked over to the storage room and grabbed a led pipe and gripped it. "This is my gift to you AJ. My precious love." I said and I threw it on the ground with force. I hurried away and now it was on. AJ's life is going to be hell.

xXxXxXxXxX

Punk walked up to AJ's office. He knocked on her door and AJ told him to come in.

"Hey babe how are you doing?" he asked kissing her lips.

"You taste salty" Punk said not knowing AJ had cried just moments ago.

"Oh yeah sorry, I just ate a bag of pretzels, full of salt you-"

"Were you crying?" Punk asked suspiciously

"I uh-"

"AJ don't lie to me, were you crying?" he asked again more sternly.

"Yes, I was. I was crying" she said.

"Why?" Punk asked knowing something was wrong.

AJ wasn't going to lie to him. She promised him no more lies "I told Chris about the baby Punk and I know you told me to not tell anyone but I couldn't not tell him. He knew something was wrong and he asked about the baby so I was put on the spot. Please Punk don't be mad. He understands fully and is here for us no matter what"

Punk stared into her eyes. He didn't lose his temper nor huff in anger. He just hugged her. "I'm not mad AJ. I'm a little disappointed that you told me after I clearly told you to not tell him but it's okay, Chris deserved to know."

AJ hugged him back and leaned her head into his chest "Thank you Punk, it was really hard but I had to. Just understand why I said it."

"I do" he said stroking her hair "You did it because Chris is a concerned friend and wants to be here for us no matter what right?"

"Exactly" AJ said.

"Okay then I completely understand why you told him." Punk smiled.

AJ arose from his chest and kissed him passionately "I love you" she said in between kisses.

Punk kissed her back with just as much passion "I love you too" he added, wrapping his arms around her waist.

They stood there kissing each other for a brief minute. They broke a part just to look into each other's eyes and smile at each other.

"Your segment is up next?"

"Yes and I'm nervous but I think I can get through it" AJ said confidently. "Besides you just relaxed me with that passionate, loving hot kiss"

Punk smirked "Oh I see. You mean this one" and he kissed her again, this time intensifying the kiss and forcing his tongue in her mouth. AJ moaned slightly and Punk picked her up like a teddy bear and sat down on the couch, placing her on his lap. He kissed her fiercely and cupped her breast. AJ pulled back.

"Uh Punk I have a segment now" she said trying to get her mind back on point.

"Aw man but this was just getting good" he pouted.

"I know but believe me, if it wasn't for this segment I would be here kissing you all night until after the show. Then we really get our freak on" AJ said seductively sliding her finger up and around his chest.

Punk was trying so hard not to get a hard on. He smiled and kissed her one last time before she went out "Okay fine you win but after the show it's game time"

AJ laughed "Of course baby" and AJ got up off Punk's lap and skipped her way out of the office and to the gorilla.

Punk sighed and rested his head on the pillow. Before he knew it, he was sound asleep on the couch.

AJ was in the gorilla awaiting for music to play, she hoped this would go as planned. She knew if it didn't, Punk would be there no matter what. Her music hit and she skipped down to the ring. She grabbed a mic and was about to start this terrifying segment.
