Secret Partner

"Are you excited about tonight?"

I took a deep breath and blew it out. I was nervous as hell. No one knew I was coming back from the head injury. I was a surprise opponent in a mixed tag match tonight. I looked over at April and half smiled

"Yeah. I just wish I knew whose match I was going to be in."

She grinned at me and I could only assume she knew. I shrugged and looked out the window again. I couldn't wait to see Jon. I hadn't seen him since the hospital. I asked for a little space to figure things out and he graciously gave it to me. It was probably because he was used to me not being around, but I was told to keep my arrival quiet. So April is going to sneak me into the locker room she shares with Phil.

We arrived at the arena and I put on my hoodie and kept my head down and quietly entered the building between the two of them. I put on my gear and patiently waited for my turn.

"Nervous?"

I looked over at Phil who was watching me pace around the room. I sat down next to him and smiled.

"Yeah. A lot of unknowns tonight."

He put his arm around me and gave me a hug. I smiled and kissed his cheek and I heard the call to the gorilla. I never paid attention to who was already in the ring. I didn't care. I just needed to get out there to get rid of the nerves and feel like I was back where I belonged. My music hit and I waited a few seconds before making my way through the curtain. I scanned the audience for a minute and then looked down at the ring. The look on Jon's face was priceless. I guess I was his tag partner and we were facing Colby and....Danielle. I smirked as I made my way down the ramp to the ring. He held open the ropes for me as I entered the ring

"What are you doing here?"

I smiled and made my way over to the corner. I couldn't wait to kick the shit out of Danielle. Colby looked over at me and I winked as he and Jon started things off. I glared at Danielle the entire time. I kept thinking about all of the things I'd do to her in the ring. All of the times she was a bitch to me, slept with Jon before, during and after our marriage. Jon tagging me broke my thoughts as I stepped through the ropes and waited for her. She wouldn't come in so I backed into the corner and waited with my arms folded across my chest. Suddenly I was consumed with the smell of peppermint gum and his breath close to my ear.

"I love you Angie"

He whispered it in my ear and quickly kissed my cheek. I tried to play if off like I didn't care since we weren't supposed to be showing off we're a couple, but I couldn't keep from blushing. She suddenly stepped into the ring and came after me. Apparently Jon kissing my cheek pissed her off enough to get in here and try to beat me. We went back and forth for a minute and I had to admit she was pretty good, but if she screamed in my ear and/or my face one more time I was going to stiff arm her just to shut her up. I drop kicked her and she quickly made a tag to Colby. He came in and came straight towards me. We stood there staring at each other for a second and then he smiled

"Hi"

"Hi"

I grinned back before slapping him as hard as I could in the face and tagging in Jon. He looked at me stunned as I climbed back onto the apron and shrugged my shoulders and laughed...I had to stay in character. Jon backed him into the corner and Danielle suddenly tagged herself in. Jon immediately backed off and Colby looked at her like she was crazy. I was half way into the ring when I she went right up to Jon. He looked at her confused as she leaned in and kissed him. I couldn't contain the anger anymore. He pushed her away just as I was running at her full force and speared her. I probably did it harder than I should, but I was trying to prove a point. I rolled her up for a pin and got the three count. I spit in her face as I went to stand up. Jon looked at me and I looked at him and then turned to leave. He grabbed my hand and I walked back and stood there looking at him. He pulled me to him and hugged me

"What are you doing?"

I felt him kiss the top of my head and hug me tighter. This was not part of any story line and I had a feeling we were going to get in a lot of trouble once we got to the back.

"Jon, what are you doing?"

"I don't care anymore"

He finally pulled away and we exited the ring. He took my hand and we walked up the ramp and into the back together. I was stunned and shocked. This wasn't part of anythingn we were supposed to be doing. He went off on his own with all of this and I was PRAYING that we didn't get fired.

"Ambrose...Paul wants to see you two"

"Shit" I muttered under my breath as I looked up at him

"It won't be that big of a deal. Relax"

We walked into his office and sat down. I bounced my leg because I was nervous. Jon looked over and smiled and put his hand on my knee to stop me. He took my hand and kissed it causing me to blush

"I missed you. Feeling better?"

I looked down, blushing and nodded "Yes. Thank you."

The door closed and Paul came in and sat down

"SO any particular reason for the story line screw up?"

I just looked down. It wasn't my idea. I didn't even know Jon was going to be my partner until I went down the ramp.

"It was my fault, Paul. I did it. She didn't know...it's complicated. I shouldn't have"

"Look I know you two were married and it appears you've worked things out and are a couple again, but you can't be messing up the story lines like that. It's just going to confuse things. I'm going to have a talk with Danielle as well because provoking you to come after her was not part of the story either. Just be prepared to most likely end up in a story line together so I hope that you two don't end up hating each other in a couple months."

We both nodded and exited his office. Jon pulled me to him and held me close again. I stood there taking it all in like it was the last hug I was ever going to get again. I closed my eyes and sighed deeply. These were the hugs that always made me feel safe, loved, whole. I locked my arms around his waist and never wanted to let go. He softly stroked my hair and held me tight.

"Ang"

"Hmm?"

"You know we're not that far from the house....did you want to maybe come home with me and we could talk about things?"

"Umm...yeah I guess. As long as it's to talk about things"
