"Hey Integra!" called Stephanie. "Wait up!"

After the initial reunion, they'd agreed that the past was the past and to put it behind them. Stephanie felt that it wasn't that easy, that there would always a weird kind of tension between them. Most of the time, it was pushed to the back in preference of some serious fun, but every so often it returned.

"Hey Steph! Hi Shane." Integra turned around grinning. "I was just looking for you."

"What's up?" Shane asked with a teasing grin. "Wanna go down to ringside and cheer your man on in battle?"

"Oh please." Integra rolled her eyes. "I'd get lynched by the ringrats. I just want a quiet room where I can watch his match."

"I'll watch with you." volunteered Stephanie. Integra grinned. "Thanks. Do you think he has a chance at winning?"

"It's possible." conceded Steph. She found an empty room with a monitor. "Perfect. We've got some time yet, I'll get some food and drink."

Integra watched the match intensely, cheering and booing along with the crowd. Stephanie laughed, enjoying the match herself. Edge had a lot of potential, that much was certain, but it was too soon for the young rookie to find himself in possession of the belt that meant he was second best in the business.

"What the hell?" Integra's jaw dropped as a familiar blonde figure jumped over the guard rail and stood at ringside. "Christain." she breathed, unable to believe her eyes. "That means -"

"Hey bitches. Missed me?"

"LYD!" shrieked Integra, flying across the room and hugging the other woman tightly. Stephanie looked at Lydia in surprise. Her black and blue hair was cropped short and sticking up in unruly spikes and she'd been heavy-handed with the black eyeliner. Her long black clingy dress had a silver spiderweb design that started at her left hip and moved out. Lydia had gone goth.

As Integra and Lydia stepped apart, Stephanie got another shock. Lydia was a pregnant goth. "Holy shit! Damned glad to see ya."

"Your man cost my man the IC belt." Integra reminded her. Lydia shrugged. "Shit happens."

"But assholes cause it. When did this happen?" She asked indicated Lydia's bulge. Lydia snorted. "A few months ago. I'm due on Valentine's Day. Can you believe it? Of all the dumb luck. The only day of the year, where it is not only accepted, but expected that you spend the entire day putting the Kama Sutra into practice."

"Hey, at least you're still spending the day flat on your back." Integra pointed out. An evil smirk crossed her face. "You'll also still sweating, panting, scratching at Christain and screaming his name. Plus, once it's over the first words out of your mouth will be 'Wow. I need a cigarette after that damnit.' Sounds the same to me."

Lydia blushed bright red under the layers of foundation. Stephanie laughed. "It's good to see you again Lydia."

"Too bad I can't say the same." Was the cold reply. Integra was shocked. "Lydia!"

"I'm sorry but she put us all through hell remember? I can't just forgive or forget that. It's not my nature. I'll tell you right now Steph, give me a couple of weeks and I'll calm down, but just don't expect anything from me right now ok?" Lydia looked at Stephanie. Swallowing, Steph nodded. Lydia smiled. "I've missed ya Steph, I really have. I'm glad that you’re ok. Anyways, I gotta go. Christain wants me to met someone."

"See you later." called Integra. Lydia waved back. "We'll do lunch!"

"Do lunch?" repeated Stephanie laughing. Integra shrugged. "Don't ask me. You know Lyd."
