I walked into the room and found her crying. It was nothing new really.
Someone said something, or she heard a song on the radio and she just
started crying. It reminded her of the past. I sat down and stroked her
hair.
" I wish there was something I could do." I said softly. I wanted to make those tears go away forever, but I knew in the end, I was the reason for them. She started sniffling and she got up and walked to the bathroom. I sat there on the bed and listened as she washed her face. It would be time to go soon, and she didn't want anyone to know she had been crying. She always acted so tough, so strong, but I knew better. I knew that she wasn't as strong as she always made every one think she was.
There was a knock on the door and she answered it. Paul (Triple H) walked in and looked at her.
" You ready to go Steph?" he said softly. She nodded and grabbed her bag and followed him out the door.
It was rainy that day. I always figured it would be. It was only appropriate for it to rain on a day like this. I looked around and saw most of the guys, standing by their wives, tears staining their faces. I almost laughed as I watched them. They all looked so different.
I looked around and saw all the others gathered around and watched them, all focused on the same thing, the casket in the middle of the tent. The top was open so I went up to it and peered in.
" Man, I made a nice looking corpse." I thought sarcastically. I watched as Stephanie came up and laid a single red rose in the casket.
" Chris, I'll always love you." She said, I smiled and reached out for her.
" I'll always love you too Steph. I always have." I said as the wind blew her hair away from her face. I looked over at Shane and Vince.
" Take care of her for me guys." I said as I turned and looked back at myself in the casket. I looked around one more time and then walked away. They needed to get on with their lives, without me. Without Chris Jericho.
(Author's note: Okay……I did it……I wrote something without Rhyno in it……and it's even a Smoochy Dreamer sort of thing. I don't know whether to be proud or hang my head in shame. I'm sorry for not updating my other stories lately…..but my new job SUCKS!! But hopefully I'll have most of Sunday (until Wrestlemania) to work on stuff. TTFN R.G.) PLEASE READ AND REVIEW………..THANK YOU!! (
