Here it is...the long awaited chapter 3. Okay maybe not long awaited, but whatever.
Disclaimer: I DO NOT own TNA or any of the wrestlers
AJ's P.O.V
I woke up with a pounding head ache with the room spinning.
Slowly sitting up, I looked at everything around me.
This is not my bedroom. Hell, I think it might be a hotel room.
Standing up, I realized that I was only in my boxers. I looked back at the bed and my heart stopped beating.
There was a woman lying there. A naked woman. Most importantly, a woman that was not Mickie.
I quietly picked up my shoes, shirt and pants and tried to get out of the room as fast as possible. Once I was safely outside, I quietly closed the door and bolted towards the car.
Sitting in the front seat, I gripped the steering wheel until my knuckles turned white.
I cheated on Mickie.
I had done the one thing that I promised her I would never do. I betrayed her.
Shaking my head, I blinked back tears.
My heart broke just thinking about Mickie's reaction when she found out.
I tried to remember what happened the night before, and like a ton of bricks, it all came back to me.
Flashback
Mickie and I had just tucked in all the kids and were sitting on the couch in our living room. Mickie was sitting on my lap with her head resting on my shoulder.
We were sitting in quiet and I was stroking her hair. I had just finished telling her some of the stories about the things going on backstage on the tour and we fell into a comfortable silence.
I missed her and the kids so much when I was gone. It's always so hard when I have to go on a tour or perform house shows somewhere else.
Since we film TNA in Orlando and Mickie and I live in Orlando, I never have to go far to do a show. So I guess I got used to always being around.
"So AJ, I've been thinking." Mickie started.
"Well that's something you don't do often." I couldn't help but tease her a little. I loved her little giggle that she had when she got fired up.
"Shut up." She slapped my chest. "So, like I said I was thinking about going back to wrestling."
"Mickieā¦.."
"No AJ let me finish."
I nodded and let her continue.
"When I was growing up all I could think about was being a wrestler. I mean I was one of those people that made fake belts out of cardboard and paper. For the longest time that's all that I focused on. Each day it was eat, sleep and wrestle. And I finally got that shot with the WWE, and I loved it. I was on the top, and I thought I was never coming back down. But I did. And I don't regret that for a second. I love the kids and I love every moment that I spend with them, but I feel like there's something missing. I feel like there's a part of me missing. And that part is wrestling. I sit here day in and day out and watch old wrestling tapes and watch you every week, and I want to be back there. I want to be back in the ring doing what I love, doing what I was meant to do."
I stayed silent. I understood where she was coming from. She loved wrestling. I was the same way, I loved wrestling.
But I hate to admit it, I was scared. I was scared that if Mickie went back into wrestling I would loose her. I thought that somehow, she and I would drift apart and I would loose her and my kids.
I wanted to tell Mickie this, but I couldn't. I couldn't bring myself to admit that I was terrified.
"Mickie, we have talked about this before, you are not going back to the wrestling."
Mickie jumped off my lap. I knew that I had messed up.
"You are not in charge of me AJ. Yes you are my husband and the father of my children but you are not going to tell me what I can and cannot do."
"Mickie-"
"NO! AJ I have begged, I pleaded and I even cried. All I want is to go back and do what I love. And yet here you are, telling me you are not going to allow me to get back in the ring. I have had it with it! I have had it with it all AJ."
"So you're sick of me? Sick of the kids?"
"No, that's not what I said."
"You said that you were sick of it all. All would include your family."
"AJ-"
"No, Mickie. If you're so sick of me then I'll leave."
I stood and grabbed my coat walking out the door.
15 minutes I found myself sitting at a local club.
The music was blaring on the dance floor behind me and the strobe light was flashing.
I handled everything so wrong with Mickie. I didn't mean anything that I said. I was just trying to turn everything back around and make Mickie look like the bad guy.
I downed my third beer and ordered another one as I saw someone sit down beside me.
Turning my head I saw it was a young woman. Probably in her late 20's.
She had short black hair that framed her face. She had smoky grey eye shadow on and dark red lipstick.
She was wearing a black and dark purple corset that made her look very well in the chest department. She was also wearing a short black mini skirt that barley covered her butt and knee high black boots.
"Hi." She whispered seductively.
I was drunk, but that didn't mean that I was going to be rude, so I decided not to ignore her.
"Hey."
"I'm, Shauna. Shauna Trece." She stuck her hand out for me to shake.
With slight blurred vision, I took her hand. "Allen. Allen Jones, but everyone calls me AJ."
"Well hello AJ. So, are you here alone?"
"Yeah."
"Well so am I. What do you say we get out of here and be alone together?"
I don't know what I was thinking. Maybe the alcohol was impaling my judgment, or maybe I really did want to cheat on Mickie. But no matter what it was, I nodded my head and handed Shauna my car keys. I was in no condition to drive.
She drove us to her hotel and I followed he to the elevator and stood beside her as she pushed the elevator button.
I followed her to her room and watched silently as she locked her door and walked towards me.
I stayed silent as she placed her hand behind my head and didn't stop her as she pulled me in for a kiss.
I didn't stop as piece after piece of clothing was shed from our bodies and thrown around the room. Most importantly I didn't stop as I cheated on Mickie.
If I had taken the time to stop and take some time, I would have noticed Shauna pull out her phone and snap some pictures of her and I together.
I shook my head in disgust as I drove back to the house. I couldn't believe what I had done. No matter what I thought of, there was no way that I could make this up to Mickie.
After everything that she was put through with Randy, there was no way that she would forgive me. After what I said to her the night before, about not wanting me or the kids she probably hates me already. This would only make it worse.
I pulled in the drive way and closed my eyes, taking one last breath. I had to tell her. Didn't I?
I pulled myself out of the car, ignoring the pounding in my head and slowly walked to the door.
Why the hell was I going so slow? It's not like walking slow is going to put off what is about to happen.
I opened the door and was immediately met by Mickie jumping into my arms, wrapping hers around my neck.
"AJ! Oh my god, where have you been? I was so worried. I called Frankie, Alex, Sabin, Daniels, Joe I called everyone and nobody knew where you were!"
"I'm sorry, I-"
"No, I'm sorry. Everything that happened last night was my fault. I didn't mean what I said to come out the way that it did. I'm so sorry AJ. I know that you don't want me to go back into the ring and I wont. I promise."
Okay, she was making this really hard for me.
"Mickie listen-"
"Just, where were you AJ? I mean I said I called everyone and nobody knew where you were. So where did you go?"
"Well, I was at a hotel." It wasn't a complete lie. I was at a hotel.
"Well at least you were okay. I really am sorry AJ."
"I know you are Mickie. I'm sorry too. I shouldn't have gotten so upset. I knew that you didn't mean what you said. I'm sorry for freaking out. I'm sorry for everything." I did really did mean everything.
I'll tell her. Just not at this moment.
But I WILL tell her.
I think.
Uh-oh AJ's been a bad boy. Will he tell Mickie? And if he does how will she react? She doesn't put up with cheating ever since Randy so how will she take this piece of information?
So the Slammy Awards are tonight...who do you guys think will win what? I really don't know who I want to win, all I do know is I cannot wait for some CM Punk commentary. I have always been a fan of him, but I LOVE him even more now that he's on commentary. Although I still cant wait for him to get back in the ring.
In TNA news...I was liking the Mickie vs Tara feud, untill Tara got injured. Best wishes for her. I wish to see some more Eric Young. He's so talented and now all he does is act like a joke. I cant wait for an AJ face turn. I think it could happen soon. And finally the Motorcity Machine Gunns vs Beer Money, sounds like its gonna be an amazing match, but didn't we see a lot of that in the best of 5 series?
Anyway-tell me what you guys think about the chapter. What will happen with AJ and what does that new girl want with those pictures she took of her and AJ? Also tell me about your thoughts on the Slammys tonight. REVIEW!-they are much loved!
