2 weeks later.

I was sitting on the plane, stretched out across two seats. Vince had paid my 1st class tickets to and from home so I could get things settled.  Wrestling was the one thing I loved to do and something that I did well. We were only a few moments from landing as I sat up and buckled in. I hadn't let Phil know I was coming back today, wanting to surprise him before Monday Night Raw. They were in Tampa tonight and I was looking forward to being around again. I was going over the script ideas with the writers and watching Raw backstage. As we landed I gathered my things and waited for the signal to leave the plane. I checked my phone and my twitter grinning as I saw my mentions, still coming in from my surprise appearance 2 weeks ago.

So amazing to see @Lilaxox on #RAW! Wonder how's she's feeling about the new #RomanReigns?

@Lilaxox appearance on #RAW must have shaken #RomanReigns faith in the Shield hence the hesitation to join in the beating #BelieveinLila

I couldn't help but laugh at the last one I read. I retweeted it adding a thumbs up to it. As I stood up and made my way out of the plane I grabbed my suitcase with my clothes and wrestling gear in it. Hailing a cab I saw a text and checked it as my suitcases were put into the trunk. Slipping in I gave the address of the arena and checked the text.

So keeping the old theme song?

Phil was constantly asking questions about me returning debut. I swore he was more excited about it than I was. Pulling my snapback forward I sunk into the seat, grinning as I texted him.

I guess you'll just have to wait and see than won't you? Tell me what you doing today.

Phil's response was almost instant.

Working out at the gym. Gotta kill time till you get back. Which is when by the way?

I laughed out loud, knowing he wasn't going to drop it. Luckily it didn't take long to get to the arena. As I paid the driver I wheeled my suitcase behind me, thankful no one was around to spoil the surprise. Opening the door I walked down the hall, remembering being in this same arena before. I walked down the hallway looking for Phil's locker room. As I passed the Diva's locker room I heard Nikki and Brie laughing. It had been a long time since I saw anyone but I wasn't quite ready to face them. Finding Phil's room I knocked on the door, leaning my shoulder on the frame. Putting my hand up I grabbed the frame above my head and put my other hand on my hip. After a second it opened and I relished in the look of shock one his face.

"Room service?" I asked, raising one eyebrow, "Actually I have no food unless you count airplane peanuts."

"Best waiter I've had so far." He laughed, opening the door wide.

I grinned as I grabbed my bag and wheeled it in the locker room. As I walked in Natalya turned the corner and seen the last of me walking in Phil's room. She raced off to the Diva's room to spread the news.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming today?" he laughed, throwing an arm over my shoulders.

"I wanted to surprise you. It's fun to see the look of shock on your face." I teased, dropping onto the couch.

"Well I am surprised. So you still want me to train you right?" he asked, jumping on the couch next to me.

"Yes. I mean I kept up with my workout schedule as much as I could since I've been gone but it's been a while since I broke out my wrestling moves." I sighed, knowing I had a hard two weeks ahead, "Especially since I'm a high flyer."
