This is my first fic and it's a Morrison/Maryse/Ted story. I do not own any characters, I also do not own the song Like we used to.
Italicized words are the lyrics. Unless it's the Character's thoughts & flashback.
I can feel her breath
As she's sleeping next to me
Sharing pillows and cold feet
She can feel my heart;
Fell asleep to its beat
Under blankets and warm sheets
If only I could be in that bed again
If only it were me instead of him
It's been 2 months since their break-up. John never meant anything, It was his biggest mistake he regretted it but it was too late. With her, his life was colorful & complete, but those colors faded with one night. He saw 'them'. He saw the last thing he wanted to see. She was really happy…but not with him, a different guy. As Maryse & Ted walked in the catering jealousy started building in him.
Flashback
She was excited to go back to their hotel room after a wonderful shopping spree with her 'girls'
As she entered their room, she was stunned. Her world froze. Her purse & shopping bags fell. It was him
And her friend. Tears started to build her eyes.
"Ryse" John said. "It's not what you think" as John tries to pick up his clothes.
"You. How could you? You swore to me that I'm your only one. Now I'm gonna enter our room seeing you fuck one another?" As her tears started flowing down her cheeks.
"Kelly. I treated you like a sister then this is what you'll give me?" she said as her voice starts to croak.
"It's now what you think, Ryse" Kelly said.
"Let me explain. Please" John pleaded.
Maryse just shook her head. She walked away as fast as she could.
End of flashback
Does he watch your favorite movies?
Does he hold you when you cry?
Does he let you tell him all your favorite parts
When you've seen it a million times?
Does he sing to all your music
While you dance to Purple Rain?
Does he do all these things
Like I used to?
Maryse was on the bar ordering food. She was standing there her blonde locks down her back. He missed her. She was his everything. As Maryse walked back to her table with ted his eyes never got off her perfect figure. 'They' were eating together as a couple… He was with his friends. He just wanted her back.
John was wasted. After their break up all he can think was alcohol. He knew it wasn't the solution but it will help him. It was RAW. There was nothing new. He will just see Maryse & Ted together the whole time.
Fourteen months and seven days ago
Oh, I know you know
How we felt about that night
Just your skin against the window
Oh we took it slow
And we both know
It should have been me inside that car
It should have been me instead of him in the dark
His match was next. He didn't know if he should be happy or not with his match. It was Morrison vs. DiBiase. He was on his way to the curtains while Ted & Maryse walked down the stage with tons of boos coming from the fans. He brushed of his thoughts as 'Ain't no make believe' blasted all over the arena.
He did his entrance with his Slo-Mo entrance and his famous smile. His eyes gazed to the ring. She was talking to opponent she was about to leave until she kissed ted. There it was, Jealousy. He was jealous. But he has focus for his match. He entered the ring doing his taunt. He looked around and landed on her eyes. She was also staring at him. He smiled but she didn't return it. The bell rang. He took control until DiBiase countered his flying chuck. But that didn't stop him. The match was good for 7 mins.
'1…2…3….Here's your winner John Morrison' The announcer said.
Maryse went to the ring to check his 'boyfriend.' But He just went backstage because is he stayed he will get hurt more.
Does he watch your favorite movies?
Does he hold you when you cry?
Does he let you tell him all your favorite parts
When you've seen it a million times?
Does he sing to all your music
While you dance to Purple Rain?
Does he do all these things
Like I used to?
RAW was about to end. It was time for the main event. He didn't really need to stay but he just sat backstage thinking. 'Why was she happy with him? She should be happy with me.' He thought.
Flashback
-Backstage-
"Ryse. Will you let me explain?' John said.
"Explain what?" She said coldly. "You have nothing to explain. If I listen to your explanation I will just hear another lie."
"Lie? I never lied to you." John said confused
"Oh, what about the part the you said 'Ryse, Theree's no else' or 'You're the one I want to grow old with" Ryse said trying not to cry. "Don't remember them? Well, Just what I thought. Now if you please move."
He was left there standing. He didn't know what to do. All he wanted was her.
End of flashback
I know, Love
(I'm a sucker for that feeling)
Happens all the time, Love
(I always end up feeling cheated)
You're on my mind, Love
(Oh darling, led her where that leaded)
It happens all the time, Love, yeah
Once again he saw her. This time without ted. It was his chance, He stood up and walked towards Maryse.
"Hey." He said.
"Hey." She replied.
"What's up?" He said.
"I'm about to go to my locker" she said.
"Oh. Sooo…" he said.
"I really have to go so bye!" she said.
Will he love you like I loved you?
Will he tell you every day?
Will he make you make you feel like you're invincible
With every word he'll say?
Can you promise me if this was right,
Don't throw this all away?
Can you do all these things?
Will you do all these things
Like we used to?
She felt a tug on her elbow, she then turned around.
"Will he love you like I loved you? Will he tell you every day? Will he make you make you feel like you're invincible with every word he'll say? Will you do things like we used to?" He said with tears starting to build up.
"Look, whatever you say nothing's gonna change. I'm in love with him." She said firmly.
"Tell me you love me" he asked
Marsye cupped her hands and placed it on John's face.
"Look John I love you. I've always love you. But I'm not IN love with you anymore" she said.
John just nodded in disappointment. He was left standing there again. Her words just repeated through John's mind. She said. He wasn't in love with her anymore.
She was gone. Forever.
Oh, Like we used to….
This wasn't the best but I just tried this. If I get good responses I might make more fanfics. Reviews will be really appreciated.
