Things Will Never Be The Same

For a moment, Melina staid unmoved in his strong arms. She didn't make a move being too scared to react in any way. She found herself in a place which looked like a hospital, surrounded by people she has never seen before. The young, crying woman, who was looking at her shaking her head, seemed familiar for her; the blonde had something that reminded Melina of someone, but as much as she tried to remember more, she couldn't. The tall man, next to the blonde, who was holding her like he didn't want anything and anybody to hurt that beautiful woman, he had some blue eyes that reminded her of the ocean from the LA, her hometown. But yet, she has never seen that man in her life, but also she could feel the love that was between them. She then turned her head to the man who was holding her and stroking her hair. He was unbelievable gorgeous, he had those blue eyes so much more beautiful than the other man's. It was something about this tall, handsome man that made her heart jump out of her chest. He, in a unconscious way, was giving her the feeling that nothing could happen to her if she says with him. This could be love or just imagination?

"Um.. I need water." She said trying to remove John's hand out of her cheek. John set up immediately and gave her a glass of water. He was worried and concern, she could feel him. After she had drunk it, she looked at them all. "What's your name?"

Kelly remembered what the doctor had told her and Randy on the hallway. They will have to stay with Melina 24 hours a day and try to talk as much as they could about Melina's life, people, memories, activities, everything she needed to know and this may help her recover as soon as possible. Also, because she injured herself really serious, the doctor recommended taking some serious time away from the ring. Is not like she remembered it, but as soon as she will have her memories back, she'll start a long process of recovery.

"My name is Barbara. You can call me Barbie, or Kelly." Kelly was the first who answered Melina's question. She was the only one who realized it's been a while since Melina asked it, and nobody had the courage to open their mouth. "We used to, uhm I mean we're best friend, we do everything together." She smiled, while Melina kept starring at her. For a moment Kelly thought Melina wasn't even listening to her, but then she figure it out she was just trying to assimilate and understand the information correctly, and also to concentrate any image that could appear in her mind and match this young woman's words. None yet.

"Ok. So this is Randy, he is my boyfriend and also one of your greatest friends." Randy just stood there like he was paralyzed. It was the first time when he confronted such a situation and didn't really know how to react. Even though he was a brave man, this time was scared to not make or say anything that could upset Melina.

"I knew it. Since I first saw you two I knew you were together. It's strange...it's like I felt the love between you two." Melina suddenly said, like she was out of a trance and back to normal. She looked at them both and smiled.

John cleared his throat and tried to find the correct words to introduce himself to his Melina. "Well, I am John, John Cena, one of your good friends. There's nothing else to say about me." He said with a shrug, but with a deep embarrassment, like he lost the chain of his own thoughts. Kelly made a sign, but he just looked away. In the whole room you could feel a tense feeling, everybody acting like some scared 6 year old children who had met for the first time in their lives. That moment was definitely awkward.

Melina looked at John and started to analyze each and every feature of his face, just like she did with the others. Beside the hard beating of her own heart, and strange feeling in her stomach, something like butterflies, nothing else came to her mind or to her senses concerning his person. No image, or memory that could help her figure it out somehow. She felt tired, exhausted. Before she fell asleep she just needed to know one more thing.

"What's my name?" She said almost sleeping, with her eyes closed letting out a sigh.

"It's Melina." The three said together, but Melina just fell in a deep sleep as they made their way out of the room.

"This is gonna be a long but a long road for all of us." Randy said feeling relieved now that the hardest part was over.

"The saddest part is things will change and nothing we'll be as it was before." Kelly replied looking down, disappointed, as Randy hugged her and gently placed a kiss on the top of her head.

John just sighed. "It's all my damn fault and I will never forgive myself." He took his jacket and made his way out, his blue eyes showing just anxiety, hurt, blame, and a lot of love for that sweet and innocent person that was lying in that cold bed, all by herself, without anything hers. The most important things in her life were erased from her mind, basically were token away from her and she had no reason to be punished like this. He was the only guilty here, for not trusting her. He should have gone and talk to her, make her explain to him exactly what happened in that day on the hallway. He just accused her without even letting the chance to talk. Man, he was disgust by himself. He didn't deserve that beautiful woman. That's why he made the promise to stay away from her. He had done enough damage to his angel. Now it was the time to let her be free even from him.

"Gosh, poor Mel. She was so scared when she saw us in her room. It was like she had seen a ghost." Kelly said as they made their way to Randy's car. Kelly had had a horrible day, she was also tired and all she wanted was a long and peaceful sleep and when she would wake up she wanted everything to be back to normal. Melina all safe with her memories right there in her beautiful head and John near her, protecting her best friend.

"I know. This is so difficult for all of us, especially for John. He was so destroyed after all this. I understand him somehow, it's normal for him to think he has the blame for all of this, but really it doesn't matter. All that matters is Mel's sanity." Randy replied as he helped his beautiful girlfriend get in the car. He drove quiet, as his thoughts were far away form the place where his body was. He was thinking of how bad John should have felt when he saw the woman he would give his life for, not even recognizing him. Man, it must have crushed his soul! He stopped the car when the traffic lights were red and gave a look to Kelly who was sitting next to him looking out the window. She was worried, he could tell. He couldn't imagine his life without his beautiful blonde angel. She was so unique, so innocent but yet such a powerful woman. He really didn't understand how he couldn't notice the perfection that this woman had. She was kind, with a pure soul; he could feel that warm feeling inside him, that pure love growing more and more each day. She turned her head to him, and when he met her green eyes he understood one more time that if ever something happens to Barbara he would be lost, gone forever.

"What happened, love?" Barbara asked as she noticed the gaze Randy was giving her for more than a minute. "Is something wrong?"

"No, nothing's wrong babe." Randy shook his head and looked down, then raised his head up with a small and worried smile. "I was just thinking… if something bad would happen to you I wouldn't be the same anymore. I love you so much Barbie, I can't believe I've wasted so much time on not telling you this. Now that all this happened to Melina and John, I understand how lucky I am for having you and for making the right choice on telling you about my feelings." He grabbed her small hand and held it tight.

"Aw, baby. I love you too. We were such fools for not admitting it sooner. Don't worry love, nothing bad will happen to me. I have you to protect me." The Blonde Diva said as she placed her head on his shoulder with a sweet giggle then she kissed his cheek as Randy started the car again. "It's a shame what happened to them. It's hard for me to see my best friend not even knowing who I am. It pains me to see John dying inside for feeling guilty. I wonder why this should have happen to them." Kelly continued as Randy parked the car in front of the hotel where they were still living.

"I know Barbie, I ask myself the same question. Let's just not think of this anymore, Mel will be fine someday and we will be there for her and John, okay?" Randy said as he got out of the car and hugged his lovely girlfriend kissing her sweet lips.

"Barbara!" Suddenly a desperately shout called Kelly's name. Both she and Randy turned around to see a very mad Dave standing in the front of his own car. "What the hell are you doing with this clown, Barbara?" He asked approaching them.

"Excuse me, Dave? Who gives you the right to question Barbara, my girlfriend, about what she's doing?" Randy asked with a serious and ironic tone, as he got in front of Dave placing his hands together.

"Shut up Orton, it's not you I'm talking to." Dave said chewing a gum in an arrogant way. "Answer me, Barbara. What is this thing talking about?"

"Look Dave, I have no reason to inform you about my private life, alright? Randy is my boyfriend, because I love him and I will spend the rest of my days with him if it's necessary. And, besides I thought you understood that I have no interest in your persona, so if you excuse us we should get going. Let's go baby." Kelly turned her back to Dave, grabbing Randy's hand and walking inside.

Dave watched as the two walked inside the hotel, feeling his blood boiling all over his veins. "This is not the end Barbara. I won't stop until you'll be mine again. I won't let you be happy. Never." He swore.

Hours and hours were passing and John was not even blinking. He just looked in empty place thinking. The room felt as waste as his soul was now. He was sitting in the bed; in the same bed he had held Melina close to his heart days ago. He had watched her sleeping, he had heard her breathing. It was the first and last time he felt Melina so close to him, he breathed the same air she did. The only night she was completely his without her knowing it.

Through the tears and the memories, John heard the door opening wide and somebody grabbed him by his shirt and threw him on the floor.

"What the hell did you do to Melina, Cena?" He heard a hysterical voice and when he looked up, he felt nothing but range.
