I woke up in the morning and Joe was smiling down at me. I smiled back at him and put my hand on the side of his face. "What's on your mind handsome?" I asked.

"I was just watching you sleep and I can't quit thinking about how I can't wait until I can officially call you my wife." he said.

"Aw. Baby, I can't wait to be married to you either." I said.

"So I was thinking that maybe we just make a whole day of wedding planning."

I sat up. "Really?" I asked excitedly.

"Yeah. I want my girl to have the best. But we need to start with the date." he said.

"Baby I don't care if we get married on a farm tomorrow. I just wanna be your wife." I said.

"That means a lot to me but I want you to have the fairy tale wedding you've always dreamed of." he said.

"Aw. You're amazing, you know that?" I asked.

"So I've been told." he said.

We got out of bed and got dressed. I put on a pair of light colored jeans, a white short sleeve shirt, brown jacket, brown boots and put my hair in a bang bump letting the rest fall down my back. My hair was about as long as Nikki's now.

Joe was sitting in the dining room on his computer because he was obviously done before I was. I walked out there and put my arms around his shoulders from behind. "What are you looking at?" I asked.

"Places for our wedding." he said.

"Well I've always wanted to do a beach wedding somewhere in the Hawaiian Islands. It's beautiful there." I said.

"You realize that's kind of like a Samoan wedding right?"

"All the better." I said.

"You don't have to try to make me happy with this. You can choose whatever you want." He said.

"Honey, I didn't even know you had Samoan weddings on the beach. Trust me I'm going off of what I want. If you want it too then that's great, if we have different views then we compromise." I said.

"How did I get so lucky?" he asked.

"It helps that you're hot." I said. "Listen, no matter how much of a fairy tale our wedding looks like, it's not going to matter because all I want is to be your wife. I don't care about all of the finer things."

"I know."

The rest of the day we sat at the computer and planned our wedding, sat on the couch and watched movies and took walks around the public park. It was a perfect day.

While we were walking through the park I held on to his arm. It was like we were extremely happy and like we had everything.

"We never picked a date." I said.

"Yeah." he paused. "How about a month from today?"

I smiled. "That's perfect."

I got on my tip toes and kissed him and then we continued walking around.

Tonight for Smackdown we were in Lincoln, Nebraska. My home state. It was amazing. Also tonight, I had a tag team match. Well a six man mixed tag. We had a special guest coming that was gonna be mine and Joe's partner.

I was going out with Joe in his entrance since Stephanie put us in a story line together against Jon and Chanel. Tonight we were facing Jon, Chanel and Big Show. He scares the living crap out of me. He's huge.

My parents were in the front row where Joe makes his way out. I was glad they were here. They had never seen me perform up close and personal like this but they were tonight. Chanel's parents were also here. They were sitting right beside my parents which was cool.

Joe's music hit and we walked out. "Introducing their opponents. First the team of Katie and Roman Reigns!" Eden announced.

We made our way down and when we got the barricade Joe went over and then turned around to help me over. We walked over to my parents and gave them a hug.

After we slid in the ring we waited for our partner. I wondered who it was. Jon, Chanel and Big Show were already out there standing outside the ring. There a few seconds of silence and then Shawn Michaels' music hit. My eyes widened and I could hear my mom scream. This was awesome.

"And introducing their partner. From San Antonio, Texas. Shawn Michaels."

He made his way to the ring and got in. I gave him a hug and then pointed to him making the crowd go wild.

Shawn got in the ring to start the match with Jon while Joe and I were on the apron. We watched Shawn do work that was just amazing. He always amazed me when he was in the ring.

After a while Jon was getting the best of him. Shawn got him down for a little bit and then came over and tagged me in. Chanel came in and I clotheslined her four times. I drop kicked her and then tackled her to the ground and just beat on her. The ref pulled me off of her and she tagged in the Big Show. I didn't even realize it until I was face to face with the giant. He grabbed me by the throat and was gonna chokeslam me but Roman speared him to the ground. I rolled out of the ring right in front of my parents.

I got up and Chanel was right there in front of me. She grabbed me by the hair and threw me into the barricade making my mom gasp. She blew my parents a kiss like Eva Marie does and I wasn't gonna stand for that. I got up and speared her to the ground. I stood up and stood over her. "Don't ever do that again!" I yelled. I got back up on the apron.

Chanel crawled back over to her side and got back on the apron. Big Show and Roman were both down and trying to make it back to their corners to tag out. I tagged Roman's back once he was close enough. Chanel got in too and I ran and drop kicked her. Jon got in Shawn stood beside me in the ring. We did a double drop kick and then the sweet chin music at the same time. I got the win for the team and my music blasted through the arena.

Shawn and I got out of the ring and helped Joe up and to the back. I had texted my parents and told them and Chanel's parents to stick around after the show so that we can hang out for a little bit.

Once we got to the back I hugged Shawn and laughed. "That was amazing." I said.

"That was." he said.

We talked for a little longer and then went our separate ways. Joe and I went to his locker room and got changed into regular clothes. I put on a flower dress, jean jacket over it and cowgirl boots.

After everything was done we hung out with mine and Chanel's parents for a little while before heading back to the hotel.
