Update: June 18, 2015
EMMA tagged in Paige. The younger woman stumbled over the second rope. Nikki frowned, as she watched Paige. Something was wrong. Something was really wrong.
Paige opened her eyes and smiled softly when she saw Seth sitting there.
"Hey," she whispered, as she sat up.
Seth nodded. "How are you?"
"I feel like my heart was ripped out, stepped on, placed in a blender, and tossed in a garbage, al while I watched."
Seth let out a small laugh. "Yeah. They all lied."
Paige didn't answer. She just moved back and stared at the ceiling.
Seth moved so he was lying down next to her. She moved over and placed her head on his chest.
"Emma gave AJ her black eye." Seth commented. "I'm mad at her. She kept this from me."
"Don't. I don't want this to come between your relationship. You guys, you were meant to be together."
"She didn't tell me. What else hasn't she told me?"
Paige sat up and looked down at him. "She loves you. She loves me. Just hear her out, okay?"
"Are you going to do the same with AJ?" Seth questioned, staring at her.
"It's different."
"How?"
Paige closed her eyes. "Cause what she did was different. What she did, Sami had started the same way. He started with treating me like property. And I promised I would never go through that again."
"She loves you Paige. She really does love you."
"It doesn't matter anymore."
"Yes, it does. You love her. You can't do this to yourself."
"I don't want to get hurt again."
Seth sighed. "So you're going to lock up your heart?"
"If that's the only way I won't get hurt, I'll do it."
"That's not the way to live Paige."
"I don't care!" Paige exclaimed, her voice breaking and her eyes filling with tears. "I don't want to feel like this Seth. Every breath I take, it hurts. I-I feel broken, more broken than before, and it's all because of AJ. I-I don't want to feel anymore."
Seth sat up and pulled her into his arms. He stroked her hair. "Shh, it's okay. You're okay Paige."
Paige gripped his shirt as she cried.

"SHE'S not answering my calls," AJ whispered, as she stared at her phone.
"She's not answering anyone's. She's mad, and I don't blame her. What happened, that deal, it was pretty fucked up," Dean said, pulling Summer towards him.
"It's all Sami's fault," AJ snarled, clenching her fists.
"You agreed. You said yes. You went through with it. You let your anger cloud you," Emma said, glaring at the former divas champion.
"What is your problem?" AJ exclaimed, standing up and staring at Emma.
"You! And your need to hurt Paige!"
"Fuck you Emma! I don't mean to hurt Paige!"
"But you do anyways. How many times have you hurt her? How many times have you broken her heart? I mean, she tried to be your friend, tried to gain your respect, but then you send her that voice mail, telling her how you felt. Then when I think you're helping her, she tells you she's falling for you and you go and kiss her best friend. And then you fall for her. You make her happy. And I think, finally, someone made her feel complete. Someone was there, to make sure she was happy, to make sure she smiled, to make her feel wanted, and what do you do? You make a deal with her abusive ex-boyfriend to see who gets to keep her?"
AJ didn't answer. She just looked away.
"Each time was worse then the last. If Paige forgives you, what are you going to do next? Are you literally going to rip out her heart? I know you're capable of that. Make her heartless, like you," Emma snapped, glaring at AJ.
AJ looked away, not wanting to say anything. She didn't know what to say. Her tears welled up in her eyes. She tried to blink them away, but they wouldn't leave.
"Leave her alone," Nikki exclaimed, as she pulled AJ to her and her sister.
Emma ran her hand through her hair. "Why couldn't you just stayed away from Paige?"
"Screw you Emma. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't know about Sami. You wouldn't know about what he did! You wouldn't know about how bad it was! I helped her!"
"Where is she now? Huh? Where is she, AJ? I'll tell you where she is, she's in her room crying her eyes out because of you! She's in her room giving up in being happy, of finding love. She's given up thanks to you! So tell me, how did you help her?" Emma shot her one last glare before walking away.
AJ sighed, as she watched the Australian walk away. She took in a shaky breath, her eyes darting everywhere. She could feel a lump in her throat, as she tried to think of something to say. But the second she opened her mouth, a sob came out.
Nikki held her friend as she cried, as the others watched, not sure of what to say or do.

KEVIN looked up as she watched Cameron walked by. He walked up to her. "Hey, can you do me a favor?"
Cameron frowned, but nodded slowly. "Depending on what it is."
"I was talking to Paige earlier. And I took her water by mistake. I was wondering if you could give it to her? And you can bring back mine?"
Cameron frowned, before nodding. "Yeah, sure."
She walked into the locker room, and found Paige's stuff. The Brit was nowhere to be found. Cameron assumed she was in the showers, she could hear one on. She shrugged and exchanged the waters. She left and gave Kevin "his" water.
He thanked her with a charming smile and walked away. He smirked when he saw Sami. "It's done."
The red head grinned. "That is great. Soon, she'll be without a job. She'll need an income, and she'll come to me."

"I pinned Paige at Fastlane, that means I get a chance at the Divas Championship, and I think I want to cash that in," Emma said, her belt on her shoulder. Summer stood by her side, a smile on her face.
You can look but you can't touch
Emma turned to Summer. "Not who we wanted, but please, amuse us."
"You pinned Paige. She and AJ have their own thing to deal with, taking them out of the equation. Brie and I were finalists. We want a chance at those titles. You can deal with Paige later," Nikki said, as she walked to the ring.
Emma smirked. "What do you think Summer? Should we give them a chance?"
The taller blond, who fixed her title shrugged. "Do you think they deserve it?"
"Do we deserve it? Of course we do! We deserve the chance to get those titles!"
Style and grace
I'm never gonna be done
Lean on in
Now welcome to the Queendom
Stephanie walked out. "Tonight, we'll have a Champions versus contenders match. The Summer of Emmalution will team up with Paige to take on The Bella Twins and AJ Lee. I hope you girls can push back your differences. Because the winners of the match will chose a stipulation."
Emma and Summer smirked as they turned to the Bella Twins. It seemed as if the NXT girls were going to be together once again.

"CAN we talk?"
"Talk."
"I'm sorry. I hope you can forgive me for what I did. I never meant for you to be hurt by it. I just, I thought it wasn't going to happen."
"I'm really mad at you."
"I know. And I deserve it."
Seth sighed, as he tried to think of something to say. He didn't know what to say. He just stared at Emma. "It really hurt me, that you wouldn't tell me."
"I-I didn't know AJ was really going through with it. I thought she was going to take it back when she realized what a mistake it was going to be. And I just, I know how much you care for her, and I didn't want to ruin that friendship you had with her."
"You should have told me. I mean, we're going to get married in a few months Emma. That means we tell each other things, it doesn't matter if they will hurt the other person."
"You still want to get married?"
Seth shook his head. "Of course. I'm not going to leave you just because of this. I love you too much."
Emma wiped her tears that were threatening to fall. "I love you too Seth, so much."
The dual haired man grinned and leaned in to kiss his fiancé.
"I love you too Emma."

PAIGE looked up, listening to Emma and Summer's theme. Her hands were clammy, and she felt light headed. She shook her head, trying to get rid of the fog in her head.
She could hear her song start. She stood up, and stumbled out the curtains. She smiled, as the people cheered.
She could just see a blur of people. She went to the ring, and did what she usually did, but was sloppy.
Emma placed her hands on her best friend's shoulders. "Are you okay Paige?"
"I dunno," Paige answered, as she rubbed her face. Emma then told her to go to the other side of the ring. She told her to rest, and try to see what was wrong.
Paige nodded slowly, as she could feel her body start to feel numb. The match started with Emma and Nikki.
Paige couldn't pay attention to the match. She was trying to keep her breakfast down.
She didn't notice, but Emma tagged her. Paige frowned, but went over the second rope. She walked on the ring. She felt like the floor was tilting. She felt as if gravity was pulling her down.
She could hear her name being called in the distance, but soon everything went black.
AJ watched as Paige start to fall. She could see the twenty-two year old try to push herself up, but she didn't seem to be strong enough.
AJ got into the ring, as she ran towards her ex-girlfriend.
AJ looked down to the girl in her arms.
"I dun feel good," Paige slurred, her vision dazed. AJ could feel tears in her eyes. She didn't know what was happening, but she knew that it was bad. The medics arrived and took Paige to the back. AJ didn't want to leave Paige alone. She went with them, leaving the match to a two on two.

"IS Paige taking anything?" Hunter asked, as he looked at AJ.
The woman shook her head. "Paige, she loves this job. She wouldn't do anything to jeopardize that."
Hunter frowned. "Something happened out there. And we need to get to the bottom of this."
There was a knock on the door. Hunter, Stephanie and AJ turned to see the doctor stick his head through the door. "We have the test results."
"And?" Hunter asked, wanting to know what has happening to his top diva.
The doctor sighed, as he looked at his notes. "She was showing symptoms. Dizziness, confusion, nausea, drowsiness. And it just proved to my suspicion. We took a urine test, and have found traces of gamma-hydroxybutyrate."
AJ frowned. She couldn't believe it. The doctor had found drugs in Paige's system. AJ didn't know doctor speak, but she knew it was bad. She just couldn't see Paige do drugs.
"What is that?" Hunter questioned.
"GHB, it's a type of drug. Most commonly know as a date-rape drug. Paige has been drugged."
AJ could feel the tears in her eyes. She looked at Hunter, who had a stoic look on his face, and at Stephanie, who had her hands over her mouth.
AJ clenched her fists, only one person coming to mind. Paige had been drugged. She had drugs in her system. Her career could be in danger.
She was going to make Sami wish he had never been born. She was going to hurt him.

Sami smirked, as he stared down to his ex-girlfriend. He could see her pale complexion, paler than usual, covered in sweat.
Sami took out the small Ziploc bag, a small bottle inside. He grinned, as he opened the water bottle. He took the bottle out, and opened it as well. He placed a few drops into the water bottle, and then closed both. He could see nothing in the water bottle. He then told Kevin to switch it for Paige's.
Sami touched her cheek. He leaned towards her and kissed her forehead. "Soon, I'll have you back. I promise Paige. We'll be happy together." He kissed her lips before walking away, unseen.
Sami should be beaten. But don't you guys fret. AJ is going to confront him soon. And Kevin will so feel the consequences. The chapter names are for multiple characters. And there will be a Dean/Paige scene. There may be a better Emma/AJ scene, where they really talk. And Paige/Emma, cause they haven't really made up yet. So prepare for that and much more.
Hope you enjoyed the chapter and thought of way to hurt Sami. I'd like to hear what you would do to him.
Six more chapters for the story to be finished without epilogues.
