Basically, set after Gail eliminated herself from the Battle Royal. Enjoy!


Stay


She had eliminated herself in the Divas Battle Royal because a WWE creative member wanted her out of the match as quickly as possible. As she stormed backstage, that same WWE creative member walked up to her in a furious state of manner.

"What the hell was that?" he spat angrily. Gail just rolled her eyes at him. She had had enough of the Divas Division being treated like crap.

"Oh wow! You actually noticed? Well there's no point lecturing me because guess what? I quit!" she snapped back at the WWE official who looked ultimately taken aback. She pushed past him, not caring of what anyone thought of her anymore. She was finally going to leave this hell hole, even if that meant saying goodbye to the love of her life Randy Orton.


He found her pacing back forth nervously in his locker room. His icy blue eyes watched her with concern. "Gail, please just sit down, you are freaking me out, I've never seen you like this before." He stood up gently grabbing her shoulders that were shaking slightly. Gail stood there avoiding his gaze as The Viper wrapped her up in his arms, letting his chin rest on top of his head. "I heard what happened. They fired Melina and I heard you quit, why?" he asked sadly. He didn't want her to go; he didn't want their relationship to end like this. He kissed the top of her head, and pulled away to look into her dark brown eyes; dark brown eyes that he would miss all too much.

"Rands, you don't know how badly I've been treated for the last couple of years. WWE signed me, again, to do what with me? Nothing. I don't want to work here anymore." He was slightly taken aback at her change of tone and not to mention completely and utterly confused. "Randy…" she turned around to face him, "I'm quitting WWE. It's my final decision." Gail closed her eyes for a brief moment. "I'm sorry..."

"Hey…" Randy started softly grabbing Gail's hand, "You don't have to leave Gail. I'll talk to Vince, I'll do anything just to get you to say because I can't stand the thought of you leaving." Gail laughed to herself, who was he kidding?

"Vince doesn't give a rats ass about me or any other Diva for that matter..." she trailed off. A sigh escaped her lips before she continued. "I'm here to wrestle Randy and quite frankly I'm not being used at all." Randy stared at her his brow knitted in obvious concern, not to mention pain. His girlfriend was about to abandon him, just like that, without a second thought. How can you do this to me Gail? I love you. I can't stand the thought of you leaving.

"So that's it? You're going to leave just like that? What about us?" Randy questioned bringing a hand up to his mouth. This couldn't be happening to him, not right now, he must have been dreaming, this was a nightmare.

"Randy, please…" Gail stood up tears forming in her eyes. "Randy, I need to quit because I want to have a productive career. I want to wrestle but Vince won't allow me to" Gail turned back to him the tears threatening to fall. "Us? I don't think we'd be able to work. I don't think we'd be able to still be together. It would just be too hard..." She blinked away her tears.

"I'll call you everyday, I'll-"

"It wouldn't be the same Randy..."

"Even if you think we can't be together I want you in my life" Randy stood up his brow knitted in stress, he didn't want to let her go. A long distance relationship? He didn't care about that, his love for her was stronger than anything, but obviously she couldn't see that.

"That's where you're stronger than me Rands" Gail turned her back to him, "I will be unable to see you everyday. I know that you would do anything for me but for you to do this, it will be unfair" she turned around to face him grabbing his hand and looking into his mesmerizing icy blue eyes as he slowly stood up.

"You leaving me is being unfair to me...so stay…" Randy replied holding back his tears. Gail shook her head as a stray tear rolled down her cheek. He took a deep breath as he grabbed her hand tightly. "Stay…" he repeated again his icy blue eyes stinging as he couldn't keep his emotions intact anymore. "If not for your career, stay for me...please" Randy choked out. "Listen to me whatever happened in the past and whatever is going to happen in the future it doesn't matter. You are the only thing that matters to me, Gail."

"It does matter Randy…" she wrapped her arms around his neck; "it does." Gail looked up at his teary eyes. Which consequently caused her heart to ache when she saw how ultimately crestfallen he was.

"I know how much you care about me Gail, you always have but you leaving isn't going to help matters…" he quickly wiped away a stray tear threatening to fall, "it's going to make my life empty, I need you" his jaw muscle twitched as Gail pulled away from him.

"I love you…" Gail choked out, "I always will but you have to understand this is for the best."

"Don't leave…" Randy managed to say as she made her way to the door. "Don't leave me please…stay…" He couldn't help it anymore the tears were welling up in his eyes now.

"Randy don't" Gail cried as she watched him walk slowly towards her, his facial expression grim and his eyes flooding with tears. "Rands…" she watched him tears streaming down her cheeks as he gently grabbed her shoulders again. They stood in the doorway for a brief moment. He gently leaned in and kissed her. He poured everything into the kiss. All the love he had for her, all the pain he felt when she left to go to TNA. The kiss seemed to last for eternity, but it was not long enough for either of them. This was the last time Randy would ever be able to hold her close to him, to love her the way she deserved to be loved.

The Viper released her hand and drew her impossibly closer. She looked up at his icy blue eyes that always kept her mesmerized; those were eyes she would surely miss. She brought a hand up to Randy's saddened face and lightly intertwined her lips with hers making them both close their eyes and take in the moment that seemed to be lasting for eternity.

The second Gail stopped and walked out in the corridor, more emotional than ever, Randy gasped, as if his heart had been torn away from him. The Viper felt his knees become jelly as he followed her out into the corridor. Gail kept her back turned to him and covered her mouth as she sobbed silently. "Randy, do you remember when you told me you would never leave me?" Gail sniffled as Randy stared across at her still in shock. This was actually reality, Gail was going to leave him. "If we're in each other's heart's Randy, we'll always be together" she stared at him for a good long second before she saw the destroyed expression on his face that caused her to become all emotional again. "I will always be with you, no matter what…" Gail cried as she stared into Randy's agonized face. He couldn't bear to see her leave, he just couldn't. The Viper's facial expression conveyed all that was needed to be conveyed.

"I love you…" Randy frowned at Gail's words trying to block out the immensity of emotion overcoming him as he watched Gail hurry off down the corridor. He slowly found himself on the ground in complete shock as he realized he lost the only person that meant something this much to him. The only one he had shared happiness with after all the time they spent together, the only one he felt that his heart belonged to. He frowned at the blank wall opposite him as his eyes began to burn from the amount of tears welling up in his eyes.

"I love you too" Randy muttered his face contorted in shock and a small amount of agony as he watched Gail practically walk out of his life, the tears threatened to stream down his face just at the sight. He didn't care anymore, he simply didn't care. Burying his face into his hands he let the tears come out even though he didn't want anyone to see because everyone knew him to be a tough and strong guy. However, that apparent image of him was thrown out the window when it came to Gail and really he was hurting over what had just transpired. He wondered if he ever could get up off the floor but one thing he knew for sure was that he was completely heartbroken.
