Randy drove up the familiar driveway of the Cena household the following morning (which btw was Christmas Eve) and he cringed when he parked the car. The reason he was here was due to the fact that Vanessa ordered him to be there in the morning.

"Randy, its Vanessa. Listen I need to see you tomorrow morning at my house. No questions, objections, or excuses. You will be at my house at 10am. John will be taking Theresa and Sofia out to do some last minute Christmas shopping, so it will be just you and me. You can open the door and come straight to my bedroom so we can talk. I will see you then." CLICK

Randy sighed lightly since he knew Vanessa meant business. There was just a direct tone in her voice, not her usually bubbly happy tone that always brought a smile to his face. He understood that Vanessa was not happy with him for hurting her best friend of over twenty years. He knew that he was in for a major ear chewing, although he also that Vanessa had to be very careful not to get very stressed out to the point going into labor early.

Since he knew that only Vanessa were there, Randy opened the door and walked into the house. He stopped for a moment as he once again admired the Cena household. He never got tired of this house, since it was always filled with warmth, love and family. There were many pictures, trinkets and toys from the many travels. Plus the house was decorated beautifully for Christmas, Randy never got tired of coming to the Cena household for their annual New Years Eve party. It was always a fun time for all and a fun way of bringing in the new year. He find the military coin collect that John had collected over the years, he saw Vanessa's collection of shot glasses from every city she had ever been in. He made his way up the stairs where he saw the gallery of pictures from the years gone by, pictures of family, friends, their wedding and the years as a family with Sofia. Randy smiled at pictures he in, and smiled at the happy faces of Vanessa and John. Randy wonder if he would have a stairwell gallery just like this.

Once Randy reached the top of the stairs, he turned left as he went down another hallway to the door of the master bedroom. He knocked on the door and he heard Vanessa say, "Come on in Randy." As not surprising as it was that Vanessa knew it was him… he still looked surprised all the same.

He sighed lightly as placed his hand on the doorknob and then said, "Moment of truth." He opened the door to the master bedroom of the house. The bedroom was a beautiful shade of blue with white accents around the room; it was set up like the honeymoon suite that John and Vanessa stayed in during their honeymoon. He turned to see Vanessa lying comfortably in the center of the four poster bed with pillows surrounding her. There was a white sheer canopy draped over the bed, but they were split opened and tied off with blue ribbon.

Vanessa was looked beautiful wearing a white maternity sweater, a pair of blue jeans and a pair of white socks. Her curly brown hair was in a simple ponytail, and her makeup was simply done. She was looking down for a the moment as she was writing something on a notepad. A couple moments later Randy cleared his throat causing Vanessa to look up, and to Randy's surprise Vanessa smiled lightly as she said, "Hello Randy."

"Vanessa."



Vanessa placed the notepad aside as patted the bed as she said, "Please come sit with me, we need to talk about what happened between you and Theresa."

"Vanessa I-"

"Sit down."

Randy was sitting next to her with three seconds as he said, "OK, I am sitting. Look I know what you are going to say-"

"No you don't Randy," said Vanessa, "look, I know you may think I am going to yell at you for being a moron and letting Theresa go. While I am thinking that, its not good for me to be yelling and screaming at you, the last thing I need right now is going into labor while being pissed at you. I have been majorly pissed at you for what you did to Theresa. She had been doing nothing but laying in bed or looking out at the lake."

"I…"

"Besides There is not what I want to talk about, I want to talk about you. I am sorry I have been a bitch, but that does not matter either. Look I know right now you are confused as hell with Sam being back in the picture. I know you are going to see her tonight, despite the fact its Christmas Eve."

Randy looked at her with shock in his eyes as he said, "How did you-"

"Never mind how I know," said Vanessa, "Randy… I remember sitting like this in a similar situation with you a few months ago. The day Sam left you at the altar, Randy I remember how much that killed you. Being abandoned at the altar, in front of God, your friends and your family; I saw that look in your eyes as Sam was running down that altar, I saw that light extinguish and your heart breaking. I remember watching you staying here in this house for that month and a half afterward. I saw you making mistakes that could have potentially cost you your career, your friends and your family. I thought that you would never find love again and I was afraid that you be living in my guest bedroom forever."

Randy laughed lightly as he said, "Vanessa, I would have moved out… after the kids were gone."

Vanessa laughed as she shook her head, "And with John wanting five or more kids… God you would have never left. Anyway… something changed you. The moment Theresa came into the picture… everything was different about you. The sparkle in your eye was back, that special smile you had was back, it seemed like the Randy Orton we all know and loved was back. I also noticed a change in Theresa as well, after Kyle past away, she was a bit distant, she would smile, but it was never a full smile nor did it reach her eyes. The minute she came into this house, it was like when she and I were teenagers again. However… for the last two weeks, I have seen both of you… and you both were like you were before you two met."

"Vanessa," said Randy as he leaned his head back on the headboard.



"Randy… I know a part of you still loves Sam and I know that Sam loves you. Although I still can not condone what she did to you at the wedding, whatever reason she did it for. At the same time…. I know you also love Theresa and her unborn baby girl. You have even called the baby your daughter, and I know you also still have the engagement ring for Theresa. You and Theresa do make each other happy and I want both you to be happy with its together, or not. However… if you should choose to be with Samantha… I will support you."

Randy smiled lightly as he said, "Thank you Vanessa." He hugged her as he said, "I am so glad that you are talking to me."

"Yeah well," said Vanessa as she hugged him back, "you are going to be my son's godfather… you are Sofi's godfather and you are John's best friend… so I could not let my petty thought justified anger get the best of me."

"Well I better go, I need to get ready to see Sam and see what she wants."

Randy kissed Vanessa's cheek and got up to leave, Vanessa spoke again, "One other thing Randy." When Randy turned to her she said, "I am saying this not as your friend, not family member, but as your ex-girlfriend… I never saw you look at Samantha the way you looked at Theresa." Randy looked at Vanessa, smiled lightly and walked away taking Vanessa's words to heart.

Later that night

"Randy!" squealed Samantha as she practically jumped into his arms and held him tight, "I am so glad that you are here."

"Hello Sam," said Randy as hugged her back.

"Well come on in," said Sam as she dragged Randy into the hotel room, "we have so much to talk about." Sam dragged him to the couch where she practically shoved him down, "Would you like something to drink?"

"No."

"Something to eat, I can order room service."

"No."

"Are you sure?"

"Samantha! What do you want to talk about?"

"Us, of course, and our future."

"Us?"



"Yes my love," said Sam as she flicked a stray hair out of her face, "I want you back baby. I want to restart what we had. Look, what I did all thought months ago was wrong, I should never had left you at the altar. It took me time to realize that leaving you was the biggest mistake of my life. "

"You told me you did not want to be a wrestler's wife, you could not handle me being on the road all the time."

"Yes, and I also realized in the last couple of us not being together that you will not leave wrestling until you can't do it anymore. I realized now that its your life, its in your blood… and I will support that. Baby," Sam took his hands as she said, "I love you… and I want to be with you." As Sam was talking, Randy started hearing voices from memories of the past months…

"I am sorry Randy, I can't marry you"

"I want to marry you."

"The future Mrs. Randy Orton IS out there. You just have not found her yet… but one day, when you least expect it… she is going to come into your life and than… you will have that one of kind, truly madly deeply, utterly hopeless in love…"

"My name is Theresa… Theresa Davis."

"I want to have children with you."

"Congrats Theresa… you are having a girl."

"If Theresa does not want you, then cut the ties and go, but if Theresa does want, then take the ball and run with it and don't let anyone get in the way. Now what's it going to be Randy, are you going to sit there and do nothing, or are you going to take a chance?"

"I am taking a chance."

"I want to grow old with you and watch our grandchildren grow up."

"I love you Randy Orton."

"All we need is our daughter."

"I want to be a family with you and the baby, I want to raise this little girl with you."

"I love you so much Randy, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you."

"Randy… when you and I first moved in together, I told you I had no problem raising this child on my own…"

"As much as I love you Randy and want to be with you… I need you to know if I am what you really want."



"Doesn't that sound nice?"

Randy looked away for a moment, but suddenly Vanessa's voice popped into his head as he relived the last thing she said to him, "I am saying this not as your friend, not family member, but as your ex-girlfriend… I never saw you look at Samantha the way you looked at Theresa." He sighed lightly, turned to look at her as he said, "Sam… I-"

"Oh Randy!" said Sam excitedly as she leapt into his lap and wrapped her arms around him, "I knew you felt the same way!" She began to kiss him passionately and tried to tug his shirt over his head until….

"YOU'RE TIME IS UP, MY TIME IS NOW, YOU CAN'T SEE ME…"

John's theme song blared through the speaker of Randy's cell phone, Randy groaned in relief (or annoyance Sam thought) Randy lifted Sam from his lap as he said, "I need to take this." He stood up and got as far from Sam as he could as he flipped open his phone. "Hey John what's going on."

John's voice came on as he said, "The girls are in labor."

"Vanessa is in labor?" said Randy with shock thinking that only Vanessa went into labor, "I am sure that you can handle it fine on your own, plus Theresa can watch Sofia."

"Randy did you not hear me? I said the GIRLS are in labor you dumbass!! Theresa went into labor too, in fact she did just before Vanessa did. Theresa went into labor during dinner, I brought both of them to the hospital and as soon as we got there, Vanessa's water broke. We are all at Wentworth-Douglas, I need ya dude."

"All right I will be there as soon as I can." With that Randy hung up the phone and turned to Sam as he said, "I need to go."

"What?!" said Sam as she stood up, "Why?"

"Both the girls went into labor and I need to be there for John."

Clearly a pattern was taking place since Sam said, "Well, this is Vanessa's second child, I am sure it will be out soon enough… you don't need to leave me. Plus John can handle it well enough on his own."

"Sam, Theresa went into labor too."

"Theresa? You mean that woman who tried to steal you from me? Who cares if she is in labor."

"Theresa did not steal me away from you Samantha, did you forget something? YOU left ME at the altar Samantha."

"And I told you it was a mistake! I want to be with YOU RANDY!"

"Yeah well right now Theresa is in labor and she needs me!"



"Randy!" She grabbed his arm and forced him to look at her, "I need you too damn it. We just restarted our lives, you can't just turn your back on it. Look me in the eyes and tell me that you don't love me and want to be with me."

"I have to go…" said Randy as he tried to leave again.

"DAMN IT TO HELL RANDALL KEITH ORTON! YOU WALK OUT THAT DOOR AND WE ARE THROUGH!"
