Silent "Welcome"

I pulled my bags out of the trunk and waited for him get his bags. I looked up at the building and sighed. I was scared out of my mind. There was so much more to worry about this time around. Everything that happened. Everyone has to know now. It's all out in the open and eventually I'm going to run into Jon again...it was a given. I just wasn't sure I was ready for that just yet. A car pulled up next to us and I grinned from ear to ear when I saw Colby get out.

"Angie?"

He smiled his irresistably cute smile and bear hugged me and picked me up. I squeezed tight around his neck and had the biggest smile on my face. I had missed him so much. He kissed my cheek as he set me down. He looked behind me and then back at me and pointed

"Really? Him?"

He laughed as I playfully pushed him "Shut up Colby.  Hey can  you do me a huge favor? Don't tell anyone I'm here. No one knows yet and..."

"Yeah I know Ang...you don't want to run into Jon...I get it...I won't tell."  He sighed and shook his head "You know Ang you can't avoid him forever. He works here too."

"I know. I know. I know. I just...I'm not ready"

"He tried Angie. He tried to find you. To get in touch with you. He did everything they asked him to so he could see Bailey, but you changed your number and skipped town...."

I shook my head "I don't care Colby. I don't. You weren't there so don't try to tell me how it hurts him that he can't see Bailey alright."

"Ok fine. I'm just saying."  He looked behind me "Hey Stephen. You take care of her or else"

He wrapped his arms around me and held me tight as I laughed. I laced my fingers with his as we walked into the building together. We went to our respective locker rooms. I set my bags down and sat on the bench in front of my locker.

"So I'm with Jon last night and I go to the bathroom and come out and he's awake. I say one thing to him and he's being a total asshole so I made a comment about his divorce and he kicked me out...."

"Well, it's that whore ex-wife of his. It's her fault. He still loves her....Oh you're back huh?"

I looked up and saw Eva Marie and Danielle walking towards their lockers. I looked back down and sighed. Same shit, different day. I knew he'd go running back to Danielle when he got bored. They kept talking about him even though they knew I was right behind them. Now it was on purpose. I got up and grabbed my bag and made my way towards Stephens locker room. I wasn't going to sit in the ladies locker room and listen to them talk about how they fucked my husband...I mean ex-husband. I walked in, dropped my bag by the door and found him sitting on the couch. I took off my shirt and threw it aside and went over to the couch and straddled him. I must've startled him at first because he had his earbuds in and he jumped when I sat down

"Hi there"

"Hi" I smirked

"Tryin to tell me somethin?"

"Maybe"

He laughed as I leaned down and kissed him. He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer and took over the kiss.

Jon's POV

I pulled up to the arena and sighed. I was tired and frustrated. I just wasn't feeling it today, but I had no choice. I took out a cigarette, lit it and took a long deep drag from it while leaning against the car. I watched as several of the other superstars arrived and went inside. I wish I was as "motivated" as they were. Things just really haven't been the same for me since the divorce. I continued to smoke as I looked down and kicked at the pebbles by my feet.

"Hi...have anything to say about last night?"

I looked up to see Eva Marie and Danielle standing before me. Danielle was coughing and frantically waving at the smoke as if she's never been around it before. I took a drag and purposly blew the smoke in her direction

"Thanks for leaving?"

"Jesus Jon you really ARE the biggest asshole...."

"Well, what do you want me to say Danielle? Thanks for the great night? Because on my end it was anything but great...."

"Fine! Just be a prick. I don't fucking care. Maybe you DON'T want to know who we ran into in the locker room"

I took another drag and blew the smoke out at her hoping that maybe this time she'd go away. I knew she was trying to get me to take the bait, but I guess if it's going to make her go away faster I'd play along a little

"You're right Danielle I DON'T want to know...I don't care."

She started to walk away and turned around "Guess you find out on your own then"

I rolled my eyes, stomped out the cigarette and went inside. I walked by April and thought about stopping to ask her about Angie, but I figured after doing it every week or so for the last year and a half that she was probably tired of telling me to get lost. I walked in the locker room and set my stuff down next to Colby. After the divorce dust settled he and I were able to work through our issues and were kind of friends again.

"How's it goin man? Long night? You look like shit"

"Yeah." I set my bags down and sat on the chair in front of it "A lot on my mind"

"Bailey and Angie?"

"Yeah. I just feel kind of lost and I wonder about Bailey a lot."  I said with a sigh

"I'm sorry. But you know you might run into them again in the near future. Could happen."

I half smiled and started going through my suitcase looking for my gear.
