"I knew I would find you here." Paige looked over. She didn't say anything. She just turned back to look at the middle of the ring. It had been a few days since the drugging incident, and she was sent home for precaution. She hated it. "Are you ignoring me too?"

Paige didn't respond. She just took a deep breath.

"Paige, talk to me. Please."

"You think things through. You're the most rational person I know. Why would you do that? Did you ever think of me? Of how I would feel?"

"Paige-"

"No, look, you broke my heart. You all did. And I don't know if I can forgive you."

Dean sighed, as he sat in front of her. "I get it. It was a dick move. And we never meant for this to hurt you. We just wanted him out of your life. We wanted to make sure you were safe."

"I understand that, but the deal? Did it have to be like that? There were many ways you could help me. And by the sound of the bet, it doesn't sound like he has to stay away. It was just to see who could keep me," Paige said, looking to him.

Dean looked down. "Do you think you'll ever forgive us?"

"I don't know," Paige whispered. "This, this is getting out of control. I mean, I was drugged Dean. And it wasn't the first time, I know it wasn't. I just can't remember. I had that feeling before. And my career isn't over, or on the line, but people saw that. They saw me, out there. And they are going to want to know what happened."

"I wish I could have done something to stop him, but I couldn't," Dean told her.

Paige just rubbed her face. There were many emotions running through her body, and she didn't know what to do about them.

Dean watched her for a few seconds, before stand up. Paige looked up at him.

"You may not forgive me, but you'll always be like a sister to me. And you need to let some of your emotions go." He extended his hand to her and helped her up.

Paige frowned before grabbing his hand and letting him pull her up.

"I want you to hit me."

"What?"

"Hit me. Just let it go, okay. It'll be okay Pai, just hit me as hard as you can."

Paige frowned as she stared at his chest. She looked up into his eyes, and her anger towards him, it grew. She clenched her fists, and let it go, slamming it against his chest.

Dean let a little groan, but his small smile never disappeared. "Again." And she did. "Again." Paige used the other fist. "Harder." Paige used more strength.

Paige's emotions soon took over, and she just continued to hit Dean until she couldn't anymore.

She stood in front of him, panting. She looked up at him.

"I really am sorry Paige, we all are. We know we shouldn't have done that. We shouldn't have let Sami's manipulate us."

Paige looked to the ground. "It's okay. I think I'll forgive you, all of you, eventually, just not now. Not when it's still fresh."

Dean nodded. "We should get out of here. I think security will search the place soon and we have to be gone when they do that."

Dean and Paige headed outside. Before they could go their own way, Paige called out his name. Dean turned to see Paige play with the hem of her shirt.

"C-can you make sure she's okay? I mean, just take care of her? Don't let Emma hurt her anymore?"

Dean gave her a small smile. "Yeah, you got it Paige."

Fireproof Flame

EMMA looked up, to see Nikki stand in front of her. The back of her head was in pain from the Alabama Slam. Nikki went for the cover, but Emma kicked out.

Summer slammed her hands on the mat, shouting for Emma to stand up and fight back.

Emma pushed herself up, and saw Nikki run towards her, ready to clothesline the blond. But the Australian ran under Nikki's arm and kicked her.

She went to the corner. Brie got on the mat, and Summer did too. Emma could see that the two were ready to fight, and tried to stop it. Nikki took the chance to do the Bella Hammer, followed by the Rack Attack.

Nikki was able to get the three count.

Summer helped Emma to the back. Once there, she left to change. Emma opened the door to the locker room, to find AJ sitting on one of the benches.

AJ looked up. Her eyes widened as she saw Emma standing there. She stood up and started to head towards the door.

"April," Emma called out, turning to the shorter woman.

AJ stopped but didn't turn around.

"She's okay."

"What?"

"Paige. She's okay, health wise. Mentally, she's not all that great."

AJ sighed deeply. She turned to Emma. "Why are you telling me this?"

"Because you still love her. And I'm tired of being a bitch to you."

AJ didn't respond.

"Can we talk? I promise I won't hit you or scream, or make you feel bad."

AJ shrugged and nodded. She watched as Emma sat down.

"I was mad at you. When I came here, Paige, Summer, Seth, and Dean, they were my best friends. They were the first ones to talk to me. It was the same with Paige, she only had one friend, Summer. And then, Sami happened. I watched, as Paige became a shell of herself without knowing why."

"Why did you hate me so much?"

"You can't deny the fact that these last few months, whenever Paige hit rock bottom, it was because of you."

AJ sighed. "Yeah."

"But this time, it was all of us. And I was angry, at you, at Kevin. Mostly at myself, because I helped make her how she is."

AJ sighed and sat down next to Emma. "She's hurt. And she has a right to be. We did just break her heart. What I did, it was really fucked up. And I regret it every second of everyday."

"She hasn't forgiven me either. She's been ignoring me."

"She will. Dean told me he had talked to her. Look, everything you said, it hurt to hear. But it was right. This is my fault, and I'm going to fix it."

"I shouldn't have said what I did, how I did it."

AJ looked over to Emma. "Can we work together, to get her to not give up?"

Emma nodded slowly. She smiled. "Yeah. You're cool and all, but I don't want to keep hating you."

AJ nodded. Emma stood up and started to head to the showers, when AJ called her name.

Emma turned only to get punched. She groaned as she held her jaw.

"Sorry."

Emma shook her head and started laughing. AJ laughed with her.

Fireproof Flame

PAIGE was walking the halls, she had just had a meeting with Hunter and Stephanie as they tried to ding out who had drugged her with no avail. She couldn't remember anything, and she hadn't hand much contact with anyone.

She bumped into someone. She froze as she thought about the two times that had happened.

Paige was walking towards the locker room. She was looking down, when she bumped into someone. The person she bumped into held her, so she wouldn't fall. She looked up to see a man. He had reddish hair, lot of facial hair. And he had one of the friendliest smile she had seen. She couldn't help but smile back.

"Sorry," he said, chuckling.

Paige shrugged. "It's okay. I wasn't watching where I was going either."

"I'm Sami."

"Paige."

"It was nice meeting Paige," he said, as he released her and started walking away. "I'll see you around?"

Paige nodded. "Yeah, see you around."

It was sweet and everything.

Paige was walking down the all. She was looking at her phone, at the text she had send AJ.

"Sorry," AJ muttered.

Paige looked at AJ, not believing her luck. That was the woman she wanted to avoid. "It's okay."

"It wasn't just my fault. You weren't looking where you were walking either!" AJ snapped.

Not wanting to fight her, Paige sighed. "I'm sorry. I'll watch where I'm going next time."

Paige turned and started to walk away. But AJ stopped her. "Hey, what did I say? I know I left a voice mail on your phone, but I was too drunk to remember what. Can I know what it is?"

Paige gave her a forced smile. "It was nothing. You were just laughing and complaining about losing."

She watched AJ nod and walk away, before walking away too.

"-ge," she heard. She looked up to see Emma standing in front of her. "Are you okay?"

Paige nodded. "Yeah, I'm fine. I was just thinking you know?"

Emma nodded. "How have you been?"

Paige shrugged. "Could be better. They don't know who it was."

"But we do. We know the one person who would do that."

"But what prove do we have?"

"Paige, if you tell—"

"NO! I am not telling!"

Emma sighed. She looked to the ground. "What if he does it again?"

Paige shook her head. "H-he's not."

"Has he done it before?"

"H-he won't."

"Paige."

"Emma, I'm scared. He's never done this before. But he has gotten me drunk," her voice started to fade, as she realized something.

"Paige? What?"

"He's done it before. Not him, but Kevin. At the bar. I-I remember, I went to get drunk. I was mad at all of you guys. The bartender tried to get me home, but he came along. He drugged my drink. I-I remember waking up in a strange room. Emma, it was Sami's room."

Emma didn't say anything. She just hugged her. "He won't do naything. We won't let him. You may be mad at us, but we'll still protect you."

Paige nodded. She looked at Emma. "Can you do me a favor?"

"Yeah, of course."

"Can you stop hurting AJ?"

Emma let out a small laugh. "Yeah. I kind of already did. She got her revenge on me though."

"Good," Paige whispered. "You're a great best friend. You're wiling to hurt people for me."

"We're still best friends?"

Paige looked at the blond like she was crazy. "Of course. No one gets me like you do."

"I-I thought we weren't going to be friends anymore. After what I did."

"Best friends fight. It's going to happen. But that will never get in the way of how much you mean to me. All of you. It's just still fresh in my mind. And I will talk to you guys again. But it still hurts. Just give me some time."

Emma smiled and nodded. "I can give you that."

Paige grinned. "Thanks. Look, I have things to do. See you around?"

"Of course. I love you Paige."

"Love you too Em."

Fireproof Flame

AJ was walking passed some crates. She finally felt like things were going to be okay. She felt like maybe, she would be okay with Paige.

She felt someone pull her. She frowned and looked up at the red head, who had a smirk on his face.

"What do you want?" AJ asked, her voice full of anger. It was because of him that everything was bad.

Sami grinned, as he placed his hands on her throat and pushed her against the wall. AJ started to struggle, but Sami wouldn't let go.

"I can't have Paige if you're around. So I guess I have to get rid of you."

AJ could see the black dots appear. She dug her short nails on Sami's hand, but it wouldn't help.

AJ could barely see someone swing a piece of wood against Sami's back. He released her and she fell to the ground, filling her lungs with air.

Sami glared at the intruder, but then his glare turned into a smile.

"Hello Paige."

Paige clenched her teeth together. She looked at AJ and then back to Sami. "Leave her alone."

"And why would I do that?"

"Because you won't win."

Sami laughed. "Are you sure about that."

Paige dropped the piece of wood and decked him. Sami's smile was wiped off as he looked down at Paige.

AJ watched as Sami swung on Paige. The younger girl fell to the ground. She could see blood on the corner of her mouth.

AJ shot up, grabbed the piece of wood Paige dropped. And swung.

AJ didn't remember much. She just knew, that if she wasn't stopped, Sami wouldn't have been breathing.

Next chapter, everything starts going down hill for Sami. And the chapter after next will set up Wrestlemania, and Paige returns to in-ring competition. Paige and AJ will talk soon.

And you'll see AJ release her anger on Sami. Hope you enjoyed. Review. And until next time nerds. –LK
