A/N: sorry the updates have been kinda slow lately, things have been really hectic for me, anyways, i'll try to post morre [in all my stories] asap. enjoy :)
Grace took Abby to a large room the stars were using for catering. The room was completely empty; most of the stars had already eaten before the show started. "Do you want anything hunny?"' She asked Abby.
Abby climbed up on a chair at the table. "No" Grace sat Abby's coloring book and crayons down in front of her. "Daddy always gets me dinner after work" she said as she opened the coloring book.
"Okay" Grace nodded and sat next to her daughter. "Are you having fun traveling Abigail?"'
Abby nodded as she colored, "LOTS."
Grace smiled as she watched Abigail. "Well that's good; we're going to be spending a lot of time on the road."
"Really?" Abby looked up at her mom, smiling excitedly.
"Really."
"Yay!" Abby smiled than went back to her picture.
Grace smiled "That's a beautiful picture Abigail." She said smiling.
"Thanks mommy."
Grace smiled as she watched Abby color. She hadn't planned to spend as much time on the road as she was going to. She had wanted to mostly work on the creative team but McMahon wouldn't have it that way. He had called her earlier and told her she would be managing a wrestler, on and off set. At first she had been hesitant but that she realized that Abby would already be spending a lot of time on the road with Randy and she could tutor her when she was not working when Abby reached school-age. She had missed the WWE while she had been gone. She was excited to be back, and the fact that Abigail was adjusting well made the process even smoother.
"Hey Abigail. . . Wow Grace is that you?"
Grace looked up into the face of Cody Rhodes. His blue eyes were looking her up and down in utter amazement, than he seized her by both arms and pulled her into a tight hug.
"Hi Cody." She laughed as she hugged him back. She remembered the day she had left; Cody had been there when she had walked out. Of course he hadn't known why she was leaving. He had only been with the company for a little over a year and a half and had just moved up to the Raw roster about two months before. "How are you?" she asked him, when he finally released her from the hug.
"I'm okay Grace; we've really missed you around here! Why didn't you tell anyone you were pregnant when you left?"
Grace shrugged, "I guess it just didn't seem like a good idea at the time?"
"Are you back for good? Or are you just here to get Abbsters?"
"Abbsters?" she said with a laugh, "that kind of sounds like hamsters Cody."
He shrugged. "She likes her nicknames don't you Abbs?"
Abigail nodded. "Yea."
"Well I suppose that is all that matters" Grace smiled and sat back down. "I'm back for good Cody, or at least as long as Vince allows me to be."
"He won't get rid of you; you were a fan favorite before you vanished."'
"You make it sound like I fell off the face of the earth." She laughed.
He sat down across from her. "You pretty much did, at least when it came to all of us."
"I'm sorry Cody."
"Don't be, I'm just glad you are back."
"Thanks" she smiled.
They both looked at the door as it swung open and Randy walked in. Cody stood up as Randy walked over. "Hey Randy." Cody said, "I better get going, I'll talk to you later Grace, See you Abbs" Cody smiled and ruffled the little girls hair than left the room quickly, like he had done something wrong.
"What was all that about?" Randy asked as he took Cody's chair.
Grace shrugged, "Your guess is as good as mine."
He nodded. "Do you want to go out to dinner with Abby and I."
"I should probably work Randy."
"Oh come on Grace, everyone has to eat."
"Please Mommy." Abigail chimed in, closing her coloring book.
"Fine" Grace said with a smile, she knew, between the two of them there was no way to win that argument.
"Great" Randy said with a smile. "So what are you going to be doing anyways other than Creative work?" he asked grace.
"Actually, I'm going to be a valet."
Randy was surprised, he knew McMahon would work Grace back into the storyline but he didn't expect it to be so soon. What brand would she be on? Would she be working on Smackdown add touring with himself and the rest of the roster? "Wow, What superstar?" he asked, interested.
Grace smiled, "That's the funny thing, I figured Vince would have told you guys already."
"Nope, he didn't even tell us you were coming back today."
"Weird." She shrugged.
"He can be, but who are you managing Grace-Lynn?" he asked again, his curiosity getting the best of him.
Grace smiled and shrugged. "Cody."
A/n: were you guys expecting it to be Randy? lol. the next chapter will be the dinner :)
