I laced up my black boots as my script for the night was going through my thought filled mind. It's been a long time since I've been in the ring, & tonight was my return. I'll admit it, I'm scared out of my mind. I have to face the one woman I despise with a passion, Kelly. I have no idea what I'll do, our issue from four years ago has still yet to be resolved. She took the one thing that meant the most to me, & I be damned if I let it go so easily.
"Mommy!" I saw a blonde, beautiful little girl run through the door & embraced me in a hug.
"Hey baby," I smiled & felt a tear come to my eye.
One thing I hate about my job is that I can't be with my little girl, she means the world to me.
"Hey Micks," my best friend of seven years followed right behind.
"Candice! I'm so scared!" I exclaimed as I put Bailey down & finished getting ready. "Don't be, you'll do fine," She reassured me.
"Yeah mommy, you'll be fine! You always kick butt!".
I laughed a bit, & shook my head "Since when did you get such a mouth?".
"Well, she is around Phil a lot," Candice smiled.
She loves that man with everything in her. To be honest, I'm glad she found him.
"Well, It's time to go kick some butt!" I smiled & kissed Bailey on the forehead, & made my way to the ring.
My entrance music hit, & I skipped towards the ring. Man did I miss this. The crowd roared, the fan favorite has returned! I jumped down from the middle turnbuckle & that's when HER music hit. I knew this would happen. All the rage, hatred, & sorrow filled my mind. It also done the same to Kelly. She gave me the most evil look I've ever received in my lifetime. I didn't pay much mind to it though, tonight is my night, no one is going to ruin it for me. The bell rang, & just like I expected, she ran towards me unprofessional like. I put her in a head lock, & brought her down to the mat. "Mickie! Mickie! Mickie!" The crowd chanted. It put a smile on my face, it also brought my adrenaline to the moon. I'm going to finish this, she's an easy opponent to beat. I raised her to her feet, dazed & confused, just how I like them. Here we go, My all famous finisher! I whipped around, & dug her head into the mat.
"1, 2, 3!" The ref counted.
I rose up in victory, with the crowd jumping out of their seats, screaming their heads off. I took a bow, & made my way back to the locker room.
"Mickie! You done great!" Candice, & Phil yelled as soon as I stood foot in the door. "Thanks guys," I plopped down on the brown couch that was in my locker room.
"We should celebrate!", Candice exclaimed.
"Alright, but where's my child?" I looked around.
"She's with John, she wanted to be with her best friend so she says", Phil laughed.
I smiled, & got off the uncomfortable sofa "Well, I need to go get her," I walked to the door "I'll be back in a minute",
I walked down the hallway, to John's personalized locker room, I stood there for a moment, & heard Bailey laughing. That put a huge smile on my face. It always makes my day when she's so happy. I turned the knob to see a tall, blonde man turned away from the door holding Bailey up in the air.
"Mommy!", she jumped out of the man's grasp, & ran to me.
"Hey sweetie," I hugged her.
"Nice match, Micks," The blonde man said.
I froze in an instant. My heart dropped to the very pit of my stomach. No, it can't be him. He's not in the WWE anymore, he retired. I remembered the moment like it was just two minutes ago. All the heart break, lies, & God knows what else I felt.
"Mickie?", He turned to face me.
"Wh- What?" I swallowed nothing but air.
"I said nice match," He smiled.
"Yeah",
That's all I could say. I haven't seen him in so long. I don't know him anymore. I couldn't say much.
"So, how have you been?",
"I've been fine," I picked up Bailey, & walked towards the door.
"Leaving so soon Micks? You can't even talk to me?" John stood at the entrance of the bath room.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, John. I didn't know you were even here,"
He chuckled, "It's fine, you go & celebrate. Candice invited me, & I invited Adam along,"
I shook my head, Then recaptured myself, "Oh, okay, I'll see you guys there,".
"Bye Mickie," Adam smiled.
"Yeah," I quickly said as I hurried to the locker room.
What am I going to do? Not only is he here at RAW, but he's going to dinner with me. I don't know if I can bare it. I feel like just breaking down, & not giving a care in the world. Then another way I could go is pretending not a thing is wrong, to just go on with my marry day. I paced back & forth across the carpet floor ,trying to decide how to handle this awful situation, while Bailey was giving me questioning looks.
"What Bai?" I asked her with a raised eyebrow.
"You're acting weird mommy,"
As soon as those concerned filled words released from her lips, I stopped in mid step. "I'm sorry baby, mommy's fine. I'm just a little nervous," I gave her a reassuring smile, while she still have me that little worried look.
"Okay, you know what? If you don't stop looking at me like that, I'm going to have to tickle you," ,,
She jumped up from the couch & started to run. "Oh! You want to be like that?" I ran after her, & whipped her up.
"What cha' gonna' do now?"
She laughed, & squirmed. "Mommy!" She managed to get out while I tickled her like a mad woman.
"What? Hmmm? What is it?" I laughed, & she pointed behind me. I turned around to see Adam smiling.
"Yes?" I sat Bailey down, & put my hand on my hip,
"Can we talk, please?" Adam looked down, & sighed.
~Authors note~
I'm sorry if it's not so good, I couldn't really think of anything to get started. I promise the next chapter will be better.
Much love,
Brittany.
