Bekka's POV

        I was in a match with Aksana. I watch her fall to the mat after a hard clothesline and climb the top rope, waiting for her to get up to preform my finisher.

        "Oh, Bekka! Your knight in tactical armor is here!" Someone's voice booms behind me. I knew it was Dean, so I didn't pay attention to it. Aksana stood up and I sent my feet into her head. Before I could pin, Dean began to speak again. "You can't run from this! You may have left the Shield, you may have left me, but I know that you still love me!" He played the crazy ex boyfriend card so well, I started to believe it. I sent a glare his way and pulled Aksana up by her hair, making her the receiving end of Dean's finisher, "Dirty Deeds". I then got the three-count on her and grabbed a microphone.

        "What's your deal? First, you send me a zillion texts and voice mails and then you interrupt my match?" I question, combing my fingers through my hair.

         "Look, I made a mistake by letting Corey get to me. I made a mistake by promising you that I would take him out. Let me remind you of the warning I gave you in your office the day we became a thing: 'When you enter the circle of things that I care about, you can't leave' and I meant that!" Dean reminds me.

        He then gets into the ring and stares at me. I smile,

        "And I meant it when I said that I liked my guys with some screws loose. You were getting too soft, babe and it was a turn-off! I knew that if I made you think that I was letting you go, the man that I was crazy for would come back." I admit. Without using the microphone, he did that laugh he does in promos and yanked my toward him by my belt loops. Before we could connect our lips, Corey's music played.

        "No, no, no! This is all wrong! I thought I stopped this!" Corey exclaimed. Dean pulled me close once more and I brought the mic to my mouth,

        "You didn't stop us! If anything, we should be thanking you for making us stronger!" I said with a sadistic laugh to follow. Corey began to walk backward through the curtain, glaring at us. Mission accomplished. 

        I walk around the backstage area and so far, I've had two people tell me that Paige is back from her suspension. She was suspended due to her actions against Dean, which weren't scripted. Luckily, to make it seem like it was supposed to happen, they gave me permission to call her out and do the bit with Paul Heyman. I strut by a janitor's closet when something yanks me in and shuts the door.

        "Let me out, Paige! I don't have time for this!" I yell.

        "I'm not letting you out until you listen to what I have to say." She stated. I lean against the wall,

        "Alright, talk."

        She shifts and begins to speak, "I don't know what came over me when I struck Dean with that chair. I don't know if it was out of jealousy or heartbreak or what but I can promise you that it won't happen again." I stay silent. "I know I don't deserve your forgiveness, that's why if you don't forgive me, I'll leave you alone."

      

        "It's not my place to forgive you. If anything, you should be apologizing to Dean. I was never horribly angry at you, but I was more mad for Dean." I admitted. Paige hugged me and we left the closet, heading toward my office.

        "Hey, babe. There's someone here who wants to speak to you" I greet. Paige walks in after me and begins to explain herself. Once Dean accepted her apology, things felt normal again. The one thing left to do was go out to the ring for our segment with Roman and Seth.
