Early the next morning, Katie and Randy were getting dressed to fly out to San Diego for SmackDown. Katie took a shower first and freed up the bathroom for Randy. When Randy got out of the bathroom from his shower wearing only his boxer briefs, he saw Katie staring in the mirror wearing only a bra and panties. She looked sad; Randy frowned. "What's wrong, baby?" he asked as he wrapped his arms around her waist. "Nothing." She said quietly with tears in her eyes.
Randy gave a sympathetic smile as he looked at her through the mirror. "We both know that's not true," he started. Katie hung her head when she realized Randy knew she was lying. "Now, tell me what's going on." Randy said. Katie sighed. "Do I look fat?" she asked quietly. "No! You're beautiful! Why would you ask me something like that?" Randy asked. "Look! My thighs are huge and my stomach is flabby. I look disgusting." She said sobbing.
Randy turned her around to face him. She hung her head and tried to cover her body with her arms. Randy gently took her hands in his own and stretched her arms away from her body. "Look at me." Randy said sternly. Katie raised her head slowly. "You are flawless; I've never seen anyone more beautiful than you." He said softly. Katie smiled a little, so Randy put her arms back to her side.
She went to cover up again. "Don't. There's nothing wrong with your body." He said as he kneeled in front of her. He caressed her thighs and kissed up and down each one. He kissed up her body: her stomach, her sides, her arms, her neck, her cheeks, her nose, and finally her lips. He hugged her tightly and continued to tell her that she's beautiful. When Randy pulled away from the hug, he wiped the tears that had fallen onto Katie's cheeks.
"You're beautiful, Katie. Your body is amazing. Don't ever feel like you aren't beautiful, okay?" Randy said. Katie nodded. "Okay." She said softly. "Get dressed and we'll have breakfast before we fly out." Randy said. Katie hesitantly nodded. She didn't want to eat anything because of her recent weight gain.
When they were dressed, Randy and Katie gathered their bags and checked out of the hotel. Randy packed their bags in the car and drove to a local restaurant where they ordered breakfast. Randy got pancakes, sausage, bacon, eggs, and coffee. Katie only ordered grits and toast. Randy quickly started on his meal, but Katie only pushed her food around on the plate. Randy noticed she wasn't eating. "Katie?" Katie didn't look up from the plate. "What?" she asked. "Why aren't you eating?" he asked knowing full-well why she wasn't eating. Katie shrugged. "I'm not hungry." She said. Just then, her stomach growled loudly.
Katie sighed. Randy reached across the table and took her hand. "Please eat." He said sweetly. Katie nodded and slowly ate the food. She thought if she ate slow enough that Randy would get aggravated and not make her eat the entire meal. "We aren't leaving until you're done." Randy said. Katie sighed and ate the buttered toast and the small portion of grits.
As promised, she and Randy left once all of her food was eaten. The drive to the airport was quiet. Randy felt bad for Katie; he just couldn't understand how such a beautiful person could feel so badly about herself.
At the airport, Randy returned the rental car and boarded the plane with Katie. The flight from Phoenix to San Diego was a little under an hour and a half. When the plane landed, Randy and Katie checked into their hotel room before going to the gym. Katie had planned a rigorous workout to shed the weight she had gained. At the gym, she and Randy went their separate ways. Randy focused on weight lifting and Katie did only cardio.
When Randy finished his workout, he went in search of Katie; he found her on a treadmill. Her shirt was soaked with sweat; there wasn't a dry spot in sight. "What the hell…" Randy said to himself as he looked at the treadmill. "How long have you been running?" he asked Katie. "Since—we—got—here." Katie said in between breaths. Randy frowned. "That was 2 and half hours ago!" he said. Katie nodded. "Stop, Katie. Just stop!" Randy said with authority. She didn't stop, so Randy pressed the STOP button on the treadmill; he caught Katie before she fell.
Randy dragged her away towards the showers so they could talk privately. "I know you want to lose a few pounds, but you don't need to! You're going to push yourself too far and you're going to get sick. Just slow down; eat right and exercise if you want to drop a few pounds. You can't just run full-speed on a treadmill for two hours." Randy said. Katie nodded. "I'm sorry." She said. Randy shook his head. "You don't have to apologize to me; apologize to yourself for pushing too hard." Randy said. Katie nodded like she was a scolded child.
Suddenly Katie held her stomach and gagged. She ran to the nearest bathroom and vomited; Randy followed but he stayed outside the bathroom. He knocked and waited for an answer; when no one said anything, he walked in to check on Katie. "See? I told you that you would get sick." He said as he stood at the stall where Katie was double over with her face in the toilet. When Katie was done, she rinsed out her mouth with the water from the sink. "Come on. Let's get you back to the hotel so you can rest until the show." Randy said. Katie nodded and followed Randy out.
"You hungry?" Randy asked Katie as he drove back to the hotel. Just as Katie took a breath to answer, he interrupted her. "And don't lie to me," He said sternly. Katie sighed and nodded. "What do you want to eat?" Randy asked. "A salad is fine." Katie said quietly. "At least it's something." Randy said under his breath.
When they got to the hotel, Randy and Katie took separate showers. They ordered room service and quickly ate their meals. After lunch, they laid down to rest. Katie laid with her back to Randy, but Randy still talked to her. "Do you have any plans after the show?" Randy asked. "No. Why?" She asked quietly. "I thought maybe we could stay in tonight and watch a few movies." Randy said. Katie nodded. "Katie… I'm always here if you need to talk, okay?" Randy said out of the blue.
Katie sighed and rolled over to face Randy. "Do you think he left because I got fat?" She asked. Randy shook his head. "You shouldn't care about him leaving or why he left. He's gone and that was his decision. Whether or not you were the reason isn't your fault." Randy said. "I guess you're right. He said he was coming back, that he had to work some personal stuff out. So, I'm not the reason he left." she said happily. Randy sighed. "Do you really thing he's coming back?" He asked warily. Katie nodded. "In the letter, he said he would be back soon."
Randy shook his head and stood from the bed. He paced back and forth before speaking again. "HE'S NOT COMING BACK! Don't you get that? What will it take to get that through your head?! He's gone, Katie!" Randy yelled. Katie started to dispute, but Randy cut her off. "He hasn't called, he hasn't sent you any text messages, he hasn't sent an email, and he hasn't written you in the mail! What in the world makes you think he's coming back?" Randy asked. Katie shrugged. "I trust him, Randy." she said. Randy scoffed and shook his head. "You knew him for—what? 2 days?—before you started dating him? You've known me since you were a kid and you don't even trust me when I say he's not coming back." He said.
Katie frowned. "Why can't you just be happy that I'm in love with someone?" she asked. Randy's eyes widened at the question. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. "I can't be happy for you when you're supposedly in love with a married man!" Randy said. Katie's jaw dropped. As soon as he realized what he said, he covered his mouth.
