CHAPTER TWO- "THE TRUTH COMES OUT"

The next morning, Ken woke up and tried to shake loose the stiff neck he gained by crashing on the couch. He walked into the kitchen and found all the ingredients for a nice cup of coffee. He grabbed two cups and started brewing it up. Once the coffee was ready he heard the floor boards squeaking and saw Andrea emerge from the hallway wearing the very clothes he gave her in the middle of the night. Her hair was all kinds of messy and she was probably glad she wasn't wearing that much make-up last night only to have it smeared all over her face now. She gave him a I just got caught grin. "Good morning sunshine, you look like you could use one strong cup of coffee what do you say?" "That's for darn sure, what the hell did I do last night?" "You proceeded to lose track of all after your seventh martini and I drove you home after a charming rendition of the Teenage Dream and you discovered your boyfriend ditched you at the party for some unknown reason I still haven't figured out and then I let you crash here because that same boyfriend who ditched you was the only one with the house key and for some reason despite leaving hours before us still wasn't home. I still don't know how that one worked out." "Wow are you serious? That all really happened? I dang again? Shit I really hate it when I do that." "Don't know, it was very entertaining." "Oh I bet it was, thanks for the close and the bed. But did you say Johnny wasn't home?" "Nope, we probably got to your house close to one thirty and he wasn't home. I just hope he made it home safe at some point." "Where the hell would he possibly go?" "I have no idea, but I don't think he should have left you alone. I'm just glad I was there to make sure you safely got home…well sort of home, but safe none the less." "Yeah, thanks again. That was a very nice think you did for me last night. I feel like such an idiot." "Your not an idiot, you had a really great time. Your actually a very good dancer." "I think I remember that, it was a slower song right?" "Yeah, I don't think I knew the song. In fact that's about when I last saw Johnny." "I'll have to ask him what happened last night. I should probably get going though. Listen can I borrow your clothes to make it to my house. I'll wash them and bring them back later I promise." "Borrow them however long you need to it's not a problem." "Thank you so much." She kissed him on the cheek and grabbed he dress from the bedroom and walked out the door.

She walked into her now unlocked house and saw Johnny watching the television enjoying some football game. He turned around and looked up seeing her standing there where unrecognizable clothes that clearly belonged to a male. "Where the hell were you last?" " I was at the party until Ken gave me a ride home at one thirty. He let me stay at his house because you weren't home to let me in. Where were you last night?" "Brad and Jarod inviting me to their place to have a few beers and bullshit." "So you left me at the party by myself knowing I probably couldn't drive. You didn't even say goodbye to me." "It's okay baby, you already got a ride home with your little boyfriend and now your wearing his clothes. I would love to know how that happened. Were you too drunk to tell it wasn't me who you were fucking?" "Fuck you Johnny! I never slept with him. He gave me these clothes to sleep in. At least he cared about me getting home safe….and he's not my little boyfriend, he's just a friend. I don't fuck around on you. How dare you accuse me of such a thing, you really can be an Asshole sometimes Johnny!" She stormed off and went into their bedroom. She hid Kens' clothes somewhere where Johnny couldn't find them and grabbed a clean change of clothes and got ready for a shower.

Andrea hopped in the shower and turned the little radio on and let the hot water hit her body taking away all the aching from last night. She was glad that Ken had a comfortable bed. Once Ken entered her mind, she started thinking about last night then it turned into what Johnny had just said. She was so angry at him that he was the one who was the jerk last night and then trying to turn it around on her like that. She was washing her hair when she felt the warm tears starting to fall. The first thought that hit her mind was what her mother always told her about being with a man who yelled at her and made her cry. She tried so hard to fight back the hurt but just kept crying. After about a half and hour, she got out of the shower and dried her hair. She threw on her clean clothes and made her way down the stairs not in any hurry to deal with Johnny. She got to the bottom of the stairs and looked around not seeing any sign of Johnny. She saw the little note on the kitchen counter. It read, "Sorry for saying the things I said sweetheart. They called me into work today. I think it would be best if we stayed our separate ways for today I'll be home around six o'clock. I love you. Johnny." She smiled at the note. She was really shocked that he was so quick to apologize to her, he had never done that before. She placed the note in the trash and got some food ready to veg out in front of the television.

The day had gone by slowly, Andrea was watching Lifetime movies all day on television eating a little bit of everything in the house. She heard the door open saw Johnny walk in with a giant bouquet of roses. She smiled and ran over to him. She grabbed the roses and hugged him tightly. "Thank you so much honey, they are so beautiful." "Just like you baby! I really am sorry for earlier. I just got a little jealous seeing you in another man's clothes." "He didn't mean any harm by it Johnny. He was just being a kind friend. I just wish you wouldn't have left me alone. Would you rather he not be there and I have no way of getting home?" "You're right baby, which is why I wanted to ask you something." "What's up sweetheart?" "Will you marry me Andrea?" "What? Are you serious?" "Yeah, I want you to be my wife forever." "Really Johnny?" "Yes, more than anything, see I even went and got this ring today." "What?" He pulled out the black box and revealed the generous sized ring placing it on her appropriate finger. "I can't believe this, I'm so happy Johnny." "Me too baby, I want this to be forever." "It will be forever baby, I love you so much honey." "I love you to baby." They embraced and he picked her up carrying her up the stairs shutting the door behind them.

The next day Andrea woke up to see her cell phone was going off. She answered to hear her mothers voice on the other end. "Mother is everything okay?" "I don't know sweetheart, your father went into the hospital today with pains in his chest." "I'm on my way, I'll be there in about an hour are you at the hospital?" "Yes." "Just stay there, I'm on my way. I love you mom." "I love you too sweetie." She hung up and threw on some clothes and grabbed another change of clothes and threw them in her overnight bag. She grabbed Ken's clothes and ran down the stairs. "Johnny, I have to go to the hospital. My dad is in there right now and I want to make sure he's okay. I might stay with my mom tonight depending on how he's doing. I'll call you later when I find out more and let you know okay?" "Okay baby, wish him my best." "I will, I'll talk to you later honey." "Bye." She ran out the door and put her stuff in her car then walked over to Ken's house.

She knocked on the door and waited hoping he would answer. After a few seconds she saw the door open with him standing there only in a pair of shorts. He was sweating bullets. "Hey, how's it going?" She had to take a second to herself not denying he looked pretty damn good right now. She held his clothes up. "I wanted to bring these back to you. I actually have to run to the hospital my dad was brought in earlier with chest pains. He's already had two heart attacks so I need to haul ass." He saw the giant ring on her finger. "You got your wish?" "What?" She asked confused. "The ring, he must have proposed." "Oh yeah, I'll tell you all about it later. I'm probably going to be gone overnight to stay with my parents. Thanks again for letting me use your clothes." "It's no problem, hey!" "Yeah?" She turned around already half way in her yard. "I hope your father pulls through. Let me know as soon as you can on how he's doing okay?" "…I will, thanks Ken." She smiled and ran to her car. It was really nice of him to care so much, he really was a nice guy. She got in her car and drove off.

Arriving at the hospital, by the time she got there the doctor had figured out that he had a minor heart attack and that they were going to have to monitor him overnight and reevaluate his medications. Andrea embraced her mother and tried to be strong for the both of them. It didn't take long before her mom saw the giant rock on her finger. "I see that Johnny fellow finally popped the question huh?" "Mother, I know that you don't like him but maybe if you give him a chance…I do love him you know." "I know sweetheart, but I just don't know how I feel about him…there's just something about him that rubs me the wrong way. You know your father feels the same way and he was on the police force for over thirty years." "Mother, I don't really need this lecture while my father is in the hospital can we please talk about this later?" "Okay dear, one get out of jail free card." "Oh mother…" They stayed at the hospital and caught up on everything. Andrea told her mom all about Ken moving in and a little about him. Her mom kept asking questions about him hoping to learn more and more.

After a few hours at the hospital, Andrea decided that she was going to stay the night with her mother at the hospital hotel next door and stay close seeing that her mom lived about an hour away as well. They both wanted to be close to where they could be there right away in case anything should happen. Andrea called up Johnny and let him know she was staying over and then they went and got some food for a late dinner.

Ken was unpacking some boxes when he heard a car door shut from what sounded like next door. He figured it was Andrea and opened his front door to see and maybe say hi and check in on her when he saw that it wasn't her car he stayed out of seeing distance and observed the very same brunette he danced with the other night at the party and Johnny walk out greeting her. He really didn't want to believe what he thought it was but was proven right when he saw Johnny pick her up and kiss her passionately on the lips. He could actually hear their voices. "Hey baby, I missed you so much." "But it's only been a couple days sweet thing. Did Andrea know that you were with me the other night after the party?" "No, she thought I was with Brad and Jarod." "Oh good, you were amazing last night, so your sure she's not going to be home tonight?" "Yeah I'm sure baby, she's staying with her mom at the hospital, her dad is probably going to croak any day now." "Oh wow, let's go get a little wild baby!" He carried her into the house and Ken couldn't believe what he just heard and saw. He felt absolutely sick to his stomach. He wanted so badly to run over there and beat the shit out of Johnny. Here he was in love with a woman with a perfectly faithful relationship and that got taken away from him because of one stupid fucking driver and this guy was about to marry what he thought was one of the most wonderful female beings he had ever met and he was fooling around on her with apparently the easiest girl in town who had no problem flirting with him just two days prior. This was a messed up situation and he didn't know what the hell he was going to do. He shut his door and he threw on some work out clothes to try and take his mind of all of this because working out put him in a zone.

The next morning at the hospital, Andrea and her mom came back and were told that he was going to be okay and that they could take him home but wanted them to monitor him closely for the next few days. They signed the release papers and got the wheelchair and led him to her moms van. "Mom, I want you and dad to stay with me for the next couple of days. I can't stay out here because I have to work for a couple of hours tomorrow. They won't let me take any time off it's too busy. But I would feel a lot better if you guys were very close to me, please don't say no." Her father gave her a smile. "I would love to honey, but we have to go to that bar down by your house, I want one of those rack of ribs." "Yes daddy, but your not ordering them spicy." "Lawrence, you don't need the ribs." "But Betty, I want the ribs. I don't get to have them under your roof." "Exactly." She chimmed back at him. "Mom, just let him splurge this one time. It'll be rest and food with no salt tomorrow okay?" "Okay sweetie, we're going to stop at the house and grab some clothes and we'll be over in a few hours." "Okay, call me when your close mom" "I will sweetheart." Andrea looked at her father. "I love you daddy, I'll see you later okay?" "Bye angel." She kissed her father on the cheek and walked to her car driving home to update Johnny on everything.

About an hour later Andrea arrived and saw that Johnny wasn't home. She called his work number and he picked up. "Hey baby, how did it go?" "He's going to be okay hopefully. How late are you working til?" "I'm probably going to be working late tonight." "Well invited my parents to stay with us for a couple days so I can be close to dad. I have to work from eleven to four tomorrow so I just want you to know in case of emergency." "Okay baby, I have to get back to work thought okay?" "Well wait, we're going to go to Martin's for dinner when they get here later do you want to go?" "Oh no baby, I'm going to be tired, they have me working my ass off today. I'm just going to go home and relax after dinner okay?" "Okay sweetheart, I'll see you later tonight." "Love you baby." "I love you too." She hung up and started to do a load of laundry and clean the house. She wanted to walk over to Ken's to let him know how it went but saw that his truck wasn't there. He must have went out to do something. She finished up her cleaning and awaited the phone call from her mom.

After a couple of hours, her parents had arrived and they all got settled in before driving to Martin's. They walked inside and grabbed a table, it was surprisingly busy for some reason. As the waitress was bring their menus Andrea looked up and saw Ken walking through the door. She got up from her chair and approached him. "Hey you, what brings you in here?" "Oh hey, how is your dad?" "He's better, he's actually here with my mom and I. We're having dinner here tonight we just got here. We were about to order, why don't you join us?" "Oh no, I don't want to impose on your family time Andrea." "It's really okay, I told my mom about you yesterday she wants to meet you anyway." "Well okay, but only if it's not a bother." "Not at all, come on." She pulled Ken to the table and sat him down. "Mom…dad…this is my new neighbor Ken." "Oh Ken, you're the nice young man my daughter was telling me about. It's so wonderful to meet you. Will you be joining us for dinner?" "Yes ma'am, Andrea left me no choice." He smiled. "You must be her father, it's a pleasure to meet you sir. I'm glad to see your out and about." "Sure am son, hanging in there strong. Your that Kennedy guy wrestler. I remember you. That is you isn't it? You look just like the guy." "Yes sir, that's me…call me Ken." "Wow, this is so great…I love meeting famous people. Are you still out there wrestling?" "No sir, just trying to figure out what I want to do with my life. I was going through some things and I just want to see where life will take me next." "Oh call me Larry will yah? You should still be out there wrestling son, your still young and in shape." "Larry leave the young man alone now okay? I'm sure he doesn't need some crazy fan bothering him." Betty chimmed in. "It's really alright ma'am." "Now you call me Betty Kenneth, I can call you Kenneth?" "You can call me whatever you like ma'am…I mean Betty." "Alrighty, well let's order some food. I am absolutely starving." They all agreed and placed their orders.

Dinner could not have gotten better. Both of her parents took to Ken like he was a shiny new penny. She only hoped that they felt this way about Johnny. At one point during the conversation her father brought Johnny up and display his feelings towards him when he got news of him and Andrea's engagement. Ken tried to be nice and keep things neutral. He wanted to badly to tell Andrea about what Johnny was doing behind her back but he knew that it would make her upset. He was really stuck. They finished up their dinner and said their goodbyes going their separate ways.

The next day Ken woke up and was still bothered by the whole Johnny thing. He threw on a t-shirt and a pair of shorts and started jogging into town. He started to make his way near the dealership and saw that her car was parked outside. He stopped inside and saw that it was slow and approached her counter. "Hey girly, working hard I see?" "Oh hey, yeah it has been terribly slow today. I really hate this shift but somebody has to do it. Are you out jogging or something? Your soaking wet." "Yeah, I needed to clear my head of a few things. Listen, there's something that I really need to talk to you about." "Well what is it?" "This really isn't the time or place. Can we meet up after you get off work?" "Oh I don't know Ken, I was really planning on making it home to my parents as soon as possible. I hate being away from my father. But you can come over if you want. I'll probably be home around four fifteen." "Sure, that would be fine." She could read the concerned looked on his face. "Ken, is everything okay?" "I don't know Andrea, I'll just talk to you about it later okay?" "Alright, I'll see you in a few hours." "See yah." He left the building and continued jogging down the road.

Andrea was still sitting there bored with nothing to do and something came over her. She had become pretty decent friends with this guy and didn't really know anything about him other then that he used to wrestler and even then he didn't give a good reason why he doesn't anymore. She saw her laptop in front of her and started up the search engine. She typed in his name and had to filter through a bunch of wrestling facts pictures and articles. It was one article that suddenly caught her attention. She read the headline,
Wrestlers wife slain in car accident." He heart started to practically pound out of her chest. She opened up the link and started reading, "It was late evening around ten o'clock on December 29th, 2009 when the car of Shawn Anderson was found smashed between a tree and the car of Bob Neon during a snowy storm causing the unfortunate death of Shawn wife to professional wrestler Ken Anderson better known as Mr. Kennedy of the WWE and TNA. She died while trying to be revived on the way to the hospital at eleven sixteen that late evening. Further details to be revealed later." Andrea couldn't believe what she was reading. Her heart practically broke. That must have been why he wasn't wrestling anymore. She didn't know what she was going to do. She wasn't going to be able to act the same around him and she didn't know if it would be appropriate to say anything. She finished her shift and hoped that this afternoon was going to go smoothly when he came over to tell her whatever he wanted to tell her. Maybe that's what he wanted to tell her. She was hoping so that she didn't have to deal with it. She grabbed her belongings and made her way to her house.

About four thirty rolled around and Ken knocked on her door and her mother let him in. "Oh hey Kenneth, what a wonderful surprise. Are you here to see Andrea?" "I am, I told her I was going to be stopping by to talk to her." "Oh, well she just got home. She's outside on the porch talking to her father. You'll find her back there." "Thank you Betty." He walked to the back and she got up from her chair. "Hey, did you want to tell me out here?" "Actually, we need to go somewhere more private if that's okay." "…Yeah, that's fine. Let's go next door to your place is that okay?" "Yeah that's fine, are your parents going to be okay?" "Yeah, my mom will call my cell if she needs me, let's go." "Alright." They walked out of her house and made their way to his. His heart was pounding out of his chest and he didn't know how he was going to word this. Her heart was in her throat. She didn't know what he was going to say and she was still thinking about his wife's accident. They sat down on the couch. "Listen Andrea, this isn't going to be easy for me to say and this is just about the last thing that I want to say. I understand if you'll never want to talk to me again after this. But I just don't want to see you hurt and you don't' deserve it." "Ken, you are seriously scaring me right now." "Andrea, Johnny is cheating on you with Mandy what's her name." "…What? Are you serious?" "Andrea, I would not make this up. She came over to your house the night you were at the hospital and hooked up with Johnny, I also overheard them talking and he was with her the night of the party." "How could you say this?" "Andrea…I'm not lying. I know this isn't something that's easy to hear, but what could I gain from lying to you?" "I don't know Ken you tell me! Your wife gets killed in an accident and your life is sad and miserable and now you have to make mine miserable too because I'm too happy around you? Is that it?" she immediately regretted saying such harsh words. She felt her guts twist in knots. He had a look of anger, sadness, and utter disappointment. "Where did you hear that?" "I gotta go, I'm sorry I said that but you shouldn't go around trying to ruin people's relationships!" She got up from the couch and ran out of his house.

Andrea opened her door and stormed inside slamming the door shut. Her mother ran up to her wondering what was wrong. "Honey, what happened?" "Ken was spitting lies in my face!" "What are you talking about sweetheart?" "He said that Johnny was cheating on me." "Do you believe him?" "Of course not mother! I just don't know what he could gain by telling me that?" "Honey, did it ever occur to you that maybe it's the truth?" "Mother how could you? Your just saying that because you don't like him. But I still don't know why he would say that?" "Maybe he's in love with you." "Mom please! That's a major joke. You have got to be kidding me." "I'm just trying to help honey." "Well it's not helping, now I'm going to have this in the back of my mind." "You need to talk to Johnny about this sweetheart, this is a serious issue." "I know mom, he's going to be home soon too. How the hell am I supposed to ask him such a question?" "You just have to be honest." "But mother this is so hard. I don't want to jeopardize my engagement." "Honey, if that is meant to be that it's meant to be you have to understand that." "I can't think right now!" She stormed off into her room and her mother went to tell her father what was going on.

Meanwhile Ken was still at his house fuming with anger. How the hell could she say such a thing to him? How could she not believe him? The way Johnny was acting the other night wasn't a big enough sign to her? He was going to have to figure out what the hell he was going to do now. He tried to relieve some of his anger by unpacking some clothes and belongings.
