"Jackie!" Lisa-Marie Varon greeted her 24-year-old friend when she opened her door.
Jackie Gayda smiled as she hugged her close friend. "Happy Saint Patrick's day, Lis." She looked around the Varon household to see it all decorated with Shamrocks and people seemed to be everyone. It reminded Jackie of one of those parties high school kids through when their parents were not home.
"Um, Jackie, where is Charlie?" Lisa-Marie asked as she took Jackie's jacket. Jackie looked down with a sad sigh. "Oh, is it bad, honey?"
"Lisa, I don't think we're gonna make it. He isn't the same Charlie I fell for." Jackie said looking at the ground. Lisa Marie looked at her friend with a understanding face.
She went and hugged her good friend. "Jackie, just forget about him for the night and just have fun, kay?" Lisa-Marie gave her friend a smile causing Jackie to return the smile with a nod.
Jackie let Lisa-Marie greet and hang with her other guests as she went to find something to drink. She saw a lot of familiar faces and was greeted with a lot of hugs from her old WWE friends like John Cena, Kurt Angle, and JBL. The only TNA face she picked out was Jay Reso who was with his fiancée Trish Stratus.
Even with all the people, Jackie couldn't find it in her to be happy. She needed to get always from everything and just think. At the moment, she felt in over her head.
After getting her drink, Jackie walked out to Lisa-Marie's back porch, the only place that seemed where no one was. Jackie sat down on a chair as she watched the Kentucky sun set.
"It's beautiful, isn't it?" Jackie heard from behind her, which startled her. She turned to see Randy Orton sitting on the porch swing.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't see you. If you want to be alone, I can just . . ." Jackie stammered when Randy raised his hand with a grin.
"Nah, it might be nice to have some company."
Jackie said then looked back at the sky, which now some stars started to appear. "Yeah, it is beautiful."
They sat in silence for awhile, just staring at the newly turned night sky. Randy looked over at Jackie to noticed she was holding her arms and rubbing them with her hands.
"Didn't you bring a jacket?" Randy questioned, breaking the silence again. Jackie looked over shoulder with a small smile.
"I did, and Lis took it. I really don't feel like getting up. And besides, I'm hoping to see a shooting star."
Randy shook his head with a smile as he took off his jacket and walked over to Jackie. "Hear, don't want you to get sick."
Jackie raised her eyebrow at his gesture and took it with a smile in return. "Thanks, Randy."
Randy just looked back at the starry night sky. Jackie studied the young man. He didn't seem like the Randy Orton who was a childish jerk when she left the WWE. Randy seemed to have grown up since then.
"So, what brought you out here, Jackie?" Randy asked leaning on the wooden railing.
She sighed, looking back at the stars. "I think Charlie and I are over."
Randy looked down at her. "Why do you say that?"
"He isn't the same Charlie. I know it is soon after our wedding but I think married life changed us." Jackie sadly said.
Randy nodded then sat down next to her. "Well, I think I know what you're going through." This caused Jackie is look at him.
"I don't things are gonna work out if I marry Samantha. She is my high school sweetheart. I mean, I know everything about her and she can say the same thing about me. But I don't know. Growing up seemed to have us both."
Jackie just starred at Randy. He did know what she was going through. That made her feel a lot better.
After both admitting their problems to one another, Randy and Jackie just sat side by side looking at the clear starry night.
It seemed like a good half an hour before one of them spoke again.
"So, how is WWE? Aren't you tagging with Kurt and Rey tomorrow against John and Paul?" Jackie asked looking at Randy.
"Yep, it's gonna be a good match. I can't wait to work with Paul in the ring again and I think John and I will put on a good match." Randy answered then looked at Jackie. "How is TNA?"
"It's good. I am in a storyline with I get TV time. Haven't been in the ring yet, but hopefully I will soon. Gail and I are supposed to have a feud and I think we have good in-ring chemistry."
Jackie looked back at the sky, so did Randy. Subconsciously, Jackie laid her head on Randy's shoulder. He didn't do anything to stop her; he just put his right arm around Jackie's back.
Both seem to think the same thing. To Jackie and Randy, sitting there together like that felt perfect.
Just at the moment, a shooting star flashed across the sky. Randy nudged her with a grin causing her to giggle. He leaned over and whispered in her ear.
"Make a wish."
Jackie smiled closing her eyes and made a wish. Taking the opportunity, he leaned in and kissed her softly on the lips. Jackie blinks open her eyes when he breaks the kiss with a smile.
She gives him a questionable look. "You're sorta Irish," Randy said pointing on the pin on Jackie's shirt.
Jackie busted into laughter, playing hitting Randy in the arm. She returned her head to its place on his shoulder and she thought about her wish. She hoped it would come true, because she could get used to this.
