Thanks for the GREAT reviews
Mark picked up the receiver then slammed it down again he knew if he finally dialled the number he was going to have to open the results and tell Faith. If she wasn't his daughter he didn't know how he was going to tell her.
Faith sat on her mattress in the middle of her empty apartment, everything else was at her and John's house all she had was a mattress and her phone which sat plugged into the wall and on the floor.
Mark had said he'd ring straight away that was over a few hours ago maybe there was a problem with the results, maybe he'd already opened them and didn't want to tell her what it was. Faith thought to herself she began to panic and jumped when she heard the phone ring.
Faith picked up the receiver.
"Mark…" Faith said.
"Hey Faith." Mark said flipping the envelope over and over in his hands.
"Do you have them?" Faith asked now standing up.
"Yeah there right here I'm just trying to get up the nerve to open them." Mark said placing the envelope down flat in front of him.
"Please Mark just open it already… I need to know." Faith said.
"Alright Faith I'll open just give me another second." Mark said.
"Okay." Faith said sitting down again and taking a deep breath herself.
As Faith sat down she looked at the clock it was 9:30pm.
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
John pulled on his cap, grabbed his jacket and bag and walked out of the arena with a few of the guys.
No one knew what had happened between Faith and John earlier today and John liked it that way. He knew the guys wouldn't be pleased to hear how he'd treated Faith but it was what he needed. Tonight he was just going to go out with his friends and have fun something he hadn't done in almost a year. Tonight wasn't about worrying or having to think about his wife tonight was about him.
As John walked into the club about half a dozen ring rats ran up to him and a few of the other guys, some of the guys began chatting up the girls others with girlfriends or wives began walking over to get a table.
John smiled at a girl clinging to him, before he would have shrugged her off and gone and joined the guys sitting down but not tonight and not anymore he grabbed the girls hand and pulled her onto the dance floor.
Booker was the first to notice John wasn't sitting with them and when he looked around he saw him out on the dance floor dancing with someone who obviously wasn't Faith, Booker knew something was up between them he hadn't seen them together all day. As a waitress bought over there drinks John stopped dancing and walked over to there table an arm wrapped around the girl's waist.
"Hey guys have you met Candy." John said reaching for his drink.
It was then that everyone else realised who John was with. A few of the guys recognised her she was a regular ring rat never wanted more than a one nighter with a wrestler. When Candy finally excused herself to go to the bathroom the guys all turned to John.
"John I think Faith's gonna notice if Candy comes back to your room tonight." Rob Van Dam said.
"Maybe Faith will want her to stay." Carlito said a making few guys laugh.
"And if she doesn't let her know my room's just down the hall." Someone yelled out.
After about another minute the guys changed the topic because some didn't care about what was going on between John and Faith and other didn't want to know.
As the guys went off talking about storylines and other wrestling stuff, Booker pulled John away from the group.
"I don't remember you getting hit on the head tonight or are you just that stupid that you'd throw away everything you have with Faith for a one night stand." Booker said.
"Listen Book I can do what ever the hell I wanna do so just mind your own business and stay the hell out of mine." John said walking away and grabbing Candy as he walked out of the club
"But John it's only 11." Candy said as she was pulled out the door.
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Faith rolled over on her mattress, it had been a hours now since Mark had called and yet he still hadn't opened the results and Faith was falling asleep waiting for him to get the nerve up to do it.
"Mark come on I'm falling asleep."
"Faith I'm just worried what if the result say that I'm not your father I don't want you to totally forget about me after all of this I still feel like your father and I don't think I need a piece of paper to prove it." Mark said
Faith sat up after hearing that. "Mark I know you don't want to open it and part of me doesn't want you to either but the other half of me wants to know I need to know. If you aren't my father then he's still out there and I haven't accomplished anything." Faith said beginning to cry thinking what she would do if Mark wasn't her father.
"Faith no matter what it says I will always love you." Mark said picking up the envelope.
"I will love you too." Faith said wiping her eyes she heard a rip of paper. "So what's it say?"
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
"Sure you don't wanna stay?" John said as he watched Candy pull back on her dress.
"I'm sure it was fun. Don't worry we'll see each other again." Candy said blowing him a kiss as she walked out of the hotel room.
John fell back onto his bed. This is what he liked not having to care, not having to worry. As someone knocked on his door he rolled out of bed looking at the time. 11:45 he'd made it almost a full day without Faith not counting the hours they'd spent together this morning. She was still most probably crying over him.
As John opened the door he expected to see Candy but it wasn't.
"Here John I found this in my room it's from Faiths he told me to give it back to you." Booker said chucking a box to John before walking away.
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
"Um okay here… from our results we were able to conclude that." Mark began to read but then stopped.
"Mark… are you there, Mark?" Faith yelled into the phone.
"I'm here." Mark said.
"Well what's it say?" Faith said annoyed.
"You know what I'm interested in is why you don't call me dad anymore." Mark said a smile breaking out on his face.
"Mark what are you going on about…what do the." Faith said but then stopped, she replayed what Mark had just said in her head.
"Oh my god." Was all Faith said before starting to cry again.
"I guess now you're stuck with me." Mark said trying not to cry.
"I wouldn't want anyone else." Faith said.
"I'm gonna take the weekend off and come see you." Mark said.
"I'd like that." Faith said smiling.
"Well it's late and if I'm going to come see you I'd better tell Vince first thing tomorrow." Mark said.
"I love you Faith."
"I love you too dad." Faith said before hanging up.
As Faith put down the receiver she thought to herself. This was certainly day number 4 in her list of best days of her life. Faith stopped and realised that the firstt day was meeting Mark for the first time but the 2nd and 3rd were meeting John and marrying him. Well that was different now. This was definitely day number 2 now.
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
John sat down on his bed holding the box in his hands. It smelt like Faith. As he opened the box, he felt something hurt inside as he pulled out a gold chain with a heart on it.
He'd given it to Faith for her birthday; he put it back in the box before falling back onto his bed.
As John reached for the light switch he watched as his clock ticked over.
12:01, so began his first day without Faith and ended the one where he left her.
