Dear Randy,
You know I love you more than anything and that is why I'm letting you go. I want you to carry on with your life and realize that you are worth so much more than you are just now. I love you Randy but know this, we can't be together.

Yours forever, Mara

xXx

Seven years ago. That was how long it took for Mara to face up to her past. It was how long it took for her to face the love she left, Randy Orton. She remembered vividly the way she placed the note under is door and the phone calls that followed, all of which she ignored. She remembered boarding the plane and leaving everything behind. Her job as a diva, her friends and most importantly, Randy.

As Mara walked through the arena with her bag slung over her shoulder she couldn't help but feel vulnerable. The little girl who clung to her side felt the vibe the older woman was giving off. Little Sofia was wrestling mad and once she figured out where she was, she was going to go mental. Mara quietly pulled her phone out and called her friend, hoping she would pick up.

"Hey Nat... Step outside of the locker room for a moment." Her friend of ten years let out a confused sigh. Mara watched as the door they were standing in front of sung open and Natalya Neidhart stepped out, unaware of who was behind her.

"Right... Whats the matter." Mara let go of Sofia's hand and the six year old stepped forward to tap the blonde haired Diva on the back. Natalya swung around and froze on the spot.

"Auntie Nattie!" Sofia yelled as she leapt onto her godmother. Natalya continued to stare at Mara as she lifted Sofia onto her hip. Although Sofia had been brought up watching wrestling, she had never once seen Natalya wrestle. Sofia didn't know her godmother and her godfather, Tyson was a wrestler, or that her mother used to be a Diva.

"Auntie Nattie? Why are you dressed like that?" Sofia questioned the clothes her Aunt was wearing. The pink, white and black ensemble of ring attire wasn't what Sofia was used to seeing her in.

"Baby... Remember I told you that Auntie Nattie had a special job?" Sofia nodded excitedly.

"Well Auntie Nattie is just like the wrestlers you see on TV!" Sofia looked confused and she drummed her fingers against her lips in thought.

"Can I see everyone else that wrestles?" She asked and her simple question made both women smile.

"First me and Nat need to speak." Mara looked around for something to keep young Sofia entertained.

"Tyson's in the locker room, put her in there." Mara shuffled Sofia into the room and after hearing a happy yelp she knew Sofia was fine.

"Okay... What are you doing here?" Natalya asked, crossing her arms and leaning against the wall.

"Doing my job. I officially start next week." Natalya squealed and leapt into her best friends arms.

"Really? Oh that's brilliant!"

"Yeah... Its going to be hard being away from Sof... But I think I'll be okay. She dosn't start school for a few months so I want to let her come on the road with me." Natalya gave her a sympathetic smile.

"What about Randy?" Mara tried to dodge the question.

"I can't wait to meet all the new people here!" Natalya answered her with stern look.

"I'll cross that bridge when I come to it." She answered with a sigh. Natalya pulled Mara in for a hug.

"You just have to remember and tell him this time.

Tyson came waltzing out from his hiding place. Hide and Seek with a six-year-old was proving a lot more difficult than he first imagined.

"Ok Sofia, I give up... You win." He awaited her response but after hearing nothing, he flew into a panic. He ran to the showers and after calling her name, discovered she wasn't there. After throwing absolutely every item in the room around, he knew she was gone. He tumbled out of the locker room, round the corner and right into Mara.

"Where's Sofia?" She asked, a grin on her face. When Tyson didn't reply, her grin fell. Tyson grabbed Natalya and they ran in the opposite direction, frantically searching for Sofia. Mara took of towards catering.

Sofia had thought standing outside the locker room would be fun but after using the second door instead of the first one, she was drawn away by the hustle and bustle of some familiar faces.

Not a lot of people noticed the small girl wandering around with her head down, they were all to busy with match preparations. It wasn't until Sofia had walked away from the crowd of people that she had started to get scared. The camera and sound crew were a scary sight to the six year old little girl. Her breathing started to get fast and her eyes were starting to water. Before she knew it, she was running along the halls bawling her eyes out.

Sofia came to a sore stop when she ran into something very hard and hot. She fell backwards and landed on her bum, making her crying even worse. She eventually stopped crying when she was picked up off the floor. She used her sleeve to wipe her eyes and the sight before her made her blush.

Randy Orton smiled at the small girl and he smoothed the hair that had gotten stuck on the wetness of her cheek. He had just gotten out of a match so he was tired and sweaty but he had followed the girl when he noticed her get a tad upset. For a small second Randy thought he recognized her.

"Are you okay sweetheart?" He asked, looking over the little girl to make sure she was okay. She nodded and wriggled to get out of his arms. He put her down but was shocked when she looked up at him and spoke, her voice sounding mousy and riddled with sadness.

"Can you help me find my mommy?" Randy nodded and followed the litte girl as she went back the way she came. He saw her face light up when his best friend spotted her and got down on one knee beside her.

"Hey cupcake! Is Randy looking after you?" John Cena asked as Randy and Nikki Bella watched on. Sofia stared at him with her jaw nearly hitting the floor. John was her favorite wrestler.

"Not a big talker huh? Where's Randy taking you?" John asked, standing up again. Sofia relaxed a little bit.

"He was taking me back to my mom but can you take me back instead?" Randy was a little taken aback but wasn't surprised at her. She was a John Cena fan. John grinned.

"Why? What's the matter with Randy?" Sofia crossed her arms.

"I don't like him because every time he is on TV my mom gets real upset." Randy let his curiosity get the better of him.

"Why?" He asked. Sofia ignored him and took John Cena's hand.

"Yeah... I'll take you back kiddo." Nikki was ready to walk behind them when Sofia spotted her.

"A Bella Twin!" Sofia shrieked and sprung onto Nikki's leg. John leant against the wall as he watched his girlfriend lap up the attention.

"Hey girlie! I'm Nikki." Sofia removed her arms from Nikki's leg and stood up staright.

"Will you take me back too?" She asked, crossing her fingers behind her back, something which John saw and chuckled at. Nikki pretended to think before grinning.

"Sure! As long as we can be friends?" Sofia giggled brightly and Randy's head snapped in her direction. It sounded familiar. He watched as Sofia slipped her hand into John's and the other one into Nikki's and they went down the corridor. He couldn't help but follow.

Mara was starting to panic. She knew Sofia would be okay as there was always Steph's kids running about set and there was always someone talking to them but after searching everywhere and not being able to find her, she was really starting to get worried. Mara, Natalya and Tyson were all standing outside of the locker room, devising another plan.

"We could get Vince to alert all the staff!" Tyson suggested. Mara was about to say something when she caught sight of something in the corner of her eye.

"MOMMY!" Sofia came running towards Mara and jumped up into her arms. Mara closed her eyes and took a deep breath, thankful her daughter had come back.

"Don't run away like that, Okay baby?" Mara whispered and she felt Sofia nod against her shoulder. She slowly let her child down and Sofia stood beside her, hiding behind her leg. Mara looked up and smiled when she saw John and Nikki, a Diva she was yet to be introduced to. John was grinning but Mara's smile dropped when she spotted the figure leaning up against the wall, looking sexier than ever.

Randy Orton.

There you go! Hope you like it because I do! Mara asked me to do this for her and I'm so glad she did because I love the plot!
