Author's Note: It's been about a year since I posted the last chapter to this, 11.7.07 was the date I finished the chapter. And I decided just this night that I am going to finish this story at ten chapters. I of course can do a sequel if I want, but I've got a really nice way to end the story. So hopefully if people are still reading this, it won't take a year for the final chapter to come out.
“So ah,” AJ said awkwardly as he rubbed the back of his neck. They slowly made their away to the curtain for AJs match. “You and Punk ay?”
“Yeah,” She said nodding rubbing her arms slowly. “He kinda surprised me with asking me out but I kinda like him.”
“Oh?” AJ said looking at her with glazed eyes; he nodded slowly as she bit her lip.
“Yeah,” She said quietly as they waiting for their cue to go. “It should be a good date—we’re going after the show is over.”
“What about dinner?” AJ asked quickly “Usually we—um—Mickie, Joe, you and I go out,”
“Oh well yeah,” She said blushing “Well you guys will be without me; Punk and I are going to a nice Italian restaurant.”
“Oh,” AJ said quietly. “Well--”
“AJ, Caelan you’re up,” The stage hand said as AJs music blared and they could hear the crowd pop.
“Ready?” Caelan asked putting up her hair quickly stepping in front of AJ.
“Of course,” AJ said with mock happiness.
He placed his hands on her shoulders for the okay go. She took a deep breath as she pushed back the curtains as she smiled was AJ walked out behind her. No matter how many times she walked out to the ring, butterflies always flew in her stomach. She stopped and waited for AJ to pass. She applauded as he climbed into the ring.
AJ ran to the other side of the ring as he threw his arms wide mouthing to the fans “you know it!” Caelan smirked as thoughts of Samoa Joe’s conversation flashed into her head. AJ loved her, he really loved her. Now that she knew that, she couldn’t fathom why she was risking his love by having a public relationship with Punk.
“Cae,” AJ said snapping his fingers in front of her eyes.
“Sorry,” She said biting her lip as she took AJs jacket from him. “Good luck.
Don’t hurt Alex.”
“I won’t,” He said winking at her as he stood up and faced the young Alex Shelley.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Nice match AJ,” Caelan beamed as she ducked under the bottom rope joining him in the ring.
“I’m exhausted,” He whispered as he hugged her, “I think I’m getting to old for this.”
AJ winked at her as she suppressed a giggle before raising his hand for the victory. He slid out of the ring and helped her step out and onto the floor. He put his hand on the small of her back as she led the way back behind the curtain. He saw Punk waiting for her and he flared with anger. He didn’t know why he never told her that he loved her, he knew if he had told her already they would be going to the romantic Italian restaurant together, not her and Punk.
“You were fantastic Cae,” Punk said placing a light kiss on her lips before looking up at AJ showing the tiniest hint of a smirk.
“Oh shut it,” She blushed pulling away from him “I just stand there, with his jacket in hand cheering him on. It’s not the most challenging job.”
“Well you look hot doing it,” He smirked kissing her on the forehead. “My match is next wish me luck?”
“Good luck,” She said kissing him on the lips as AJ slowly walked away.
“Meet me back here after the match? It won’t take me long to shower and clean up for the restaurant,” He smiled as he held her hand as he waiting for the call for him to go out. “I really think you’re going to like this place I looked it up weeks ago and compared.”
“You’ve been planning to ask me out for weeks?” Caelan asked surprised.
“Well to be honest,” Punk started blushing a little “I’ve been planning on asking you out for half a year now. I just always thought you were with AJ or Joe and that I wouldn’t have a chance.”
“You always had a chance,” She grinned kissing him lightly.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Stupid AJ, stupid--stupid AJ,” He said banging his head lightly against the tiles in the shower room. He sulked past Joe and Mickie who wanted to know what was with the long look. But he shrugged them off, grabbed his towel and practically ran away from them. He couldn’t face them, it seemed like he couldn’t face anyone. He waited around the corner to eaves drop on Caelan and Punk’s conversation. You could hear his heart shatter when Cae told him that he always had a chance.
Because he had waited for so long, AJ felt like he let the love of his life slip through his fingers. As he let the hot water wash over him all he could picture was Caelan and Punk on their date, holding hands, kissing. He flinched as he pictured him rubbing her arms. Standing under the shower head he let the hot water loosen the muscles he didn’t even realize were tight. Just thinking of Caelan and Punk together was making him want to hit something.
Turning off the water he dried off quickly. Pulling on his pants he heard a knock on the door. He stared at it for a moment and wondered why any of the guys would knock. Slinging his shirt over his shoulder he walked cautiously up to the door. Opening it a crack he saw Caelan smiling at him.
“AJ,” She said breathlessly “I’ve been looking for you.”
“I thought you were waiting for Punk?” He asked trying not to sound disappointed.
“He’s got a really long match,” She said laughing quietly.
“Oh,” He said quietly opening the door more as he stood there his heart racing.
“AJ can I ask you something?” Caelan said after a few moments of staring at her feet. She brought her head up and looked at him for the first time that day.
“Anything,” He breathed.
“Do you approve of me and Punk?” She asked nervously running her fingers through her hair.
“What?” AJ said taken-aback
“It’s just that when I’m with him, you don’t seem happy for me,” Caelan said slowly trying to look at him but always looking beyond him. “Are you happy for me? Do you not like him? AJ tell me please, I want you to approve.”
“Approve,” AJ said slowly rubbing the back of his neck looking at her slowly.
“Allen,” She said quietly as her heart raced, she was trying to test him. All she wanted was him to admit he didn’t approve and that he was in love with her and she would break it off with Punk. “Please, I need to know.”
