Just a short little chapter to get the ball rolling. Obviously in my perfect little PaiJ world they're both single and obviously I will not be writing AJ's retirement into this because well who wants that? NO ONE DOES.

It was March 2nd, 2015. Monday Night Raw was well under way as Paige battled Nikki Bella for the Divas Championship, a rematch after Nikki's controversial win at Fastlane. Despite Paige's best efforts, Brie kept managing to interfere, this time jumping up on the apron. Paige had had enough and quickly delivered a kick to her face, knocking her back down. "THIS IS MY HOUSE!" She screamed.

She then focused her attention back on the Champion, kicking her in the face too. With Nikki flat on her back and Brie down on the floor, Paige took her chance and locked in the PTO. Nikki was clearly about to tap but before she could, Brie got back up and broke the hold, getting her sister disqualified.

"Brie's gonna cause a disqualification! Title can't change on a disqualification!" Michael Cole exclaimed as the bell rang.

Though the match was over, the Bellas weren't done. Brie attacked Paige then pulled her to her feet, holding her arms behind her back while Nikki prepared to throw a punch. Paige was struggling helplessly when..

"Let's light it up, light it up, light it tonight.."

The crowd cheered loudly as AJ Lee charged down into the ring after almost 3 months out of action. Both Bellas stared at her in horror as she came at them, knocking them both down. Paige took a few seconds to catch her breath then got back up to help AJ, who was being attacked by Nikki. Though she had no idea why AJ was there, she knew they had to take care of their current problem.

The frenemies got to their feet and shot each other a grin before launching the twins out of the ring and onto the floor. Nikki and Brie scampered backwards up the ramp as AJ and Paige looked at each other, grinning slightly.

AJ happily skipped down the hallway backstage, only to be stopped by Renee Young. She was just about to answer what the interviewer had said when Paige appeared.

"Yeah, what a surprise but er...who asked you to come out there, AJ?" She asked, a little breathless but still mean sounding.

AJ gave her reply and they both finished the segment on a "friendly" note. "She's so weird..." Paige whispered as AJ skipped away. She got signal that the segment was done and quickly followed the other girl, wanting to talk to her. "Hey! AJ!" She called.

AJ stopped and turned, waiting for Paige to catch up. "Yeah?"

"Great return tonight...I know I was kinda mean but it was just the script." Paige gabbled quickly. Why did she suddenly feel nervous? She'd felt a little fluttery ever since she saw AJ running down to her rescue, and she really couldn't put her finger on why that was.

AJ giggled a little. "I know it was and yeah it was a good return, crowd went nuts. We're gonna have some fun with this."

"It'll be a bit weird being your friend after the whole frenemy deal." Paige thought out loud.

"We should be able to pull it off." AJ grinned. "If you accept the challenge."

"Oh don't worry, we've got this." Paige grinned back.

"Good, because you're gonna be ringside for my match against Brie tomorrow night on Smackdown." AJ informed her.

Paige couldn't stop a wide smile spreading across her face. "I am? Awesome. I really love working with you."

"Same to you." AJ smiled back.

"Okay well...see you tomorrow pumpkin." Paige gave her a quick hug and headed off to the locker room to get changed.

"See ya." AJ called after her. 'Pumpkin..' She thought to herself. She knew it was just what Paige called all the Divas, but for some strange reason it made her stomach do a little flip. Shaking her head, she brushed the feeling off as excitement and leftover adrenaline from her comeback, nothing more. It couldn't be anything more...could it? AJ sighed and shook her head again, ignoring the question on her mind.

One thing was for sure, her and Paige were gonna make an amazing team.
