Thank you so much for the reviews..please keep reading an reviewing.
Mark was waiting a the hotel's front desk when Kimi came through the door. He walked over grabbing her in a big bear hug. "Kimi girl..I missed you." He said kissing her cheek.
Kimi laughed and hugged Mark back. "I missed you to Mark. He sat her down and looked at her with a critical eye."You look tired and run down, you're staying with with me at least a month, I'll make sure ya eat proper and get to bed on time." He grumbled.
Randy came up behind them laughing, you would think Mark was her dad. Mark looked at Randy. "Thanks man, for picking her up."
Randy grinned. "No problem Mark..I even got a story out of her."
Mark grinned. "You did huh, then you got a real treat."
Randy just smiled. "Kimi..I'm sure I'll see you at the show tonight, and we'll get together about dinner when we get to Atlanta." He took her hand and kissed her knuckles causing her to blush and left.
"Okay Missy, what the fuck was that?" Mark asked grabbing her bags.
"Hold On I need to get a room." She said heading for the desk.
Mark just laughed and put one big arm around her waist. "You're rooming with me, I got a double, that way I can keep an eye on you."
Kimi just laughed. "Alright dad, have it your way." She said. Mark let her go and they headed toward the elevators. "So whats with Randy?"
"He asked me to dinner..I'm a free agent I guess, he seems nice, I said yes." Kimi said stepping on the elevator.
Mark got on the elevator and pushed three. "Okay..He's a bit of a player, but I'm sure he's not stupid enough to do anything dumb, he knows I'll kill him."
Kimi laughed. "Mark you're the best, I love you very much."
Mark put his arm around her, pulling her close. "Yea right back at ya."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mark watched Kimi sleeping, He was going to have her come to the arena with him, she had barely touched the food he had ordered her for dinner and he went to take a shower, when he walked back in the room she was sound asleep.
Mark was getting her ass to the doctor, whether she liked it or not, he knew something was off with her, Kimi was always a high energy person, this wasn't her.
He didn't want to just leave her in the room without telling her he was going, but he didn't want to wake her. "Shit."
He sat beside her on the bed. "Kimi..honey." He said rubbing her back.
Mark watched her eyes flutter open. "I'm sorry I fell asleep on you didn't I?" She said in a groggy voice.
Mark shook his head. "Its okay, you look tired..I'm going to head on to the arena, you get some rest."
Kimi sat up. "No way..I'm going with you."
Mark crossed his arms. "You should rest."
Kimi looked up at Mark and grinned. "Don't make me throw one of my infamous fits."
Mark did laugh then. "I only witnessed one, but you do have a nasty temper, when you do lose it, but Sin knew how to handle your fits and so do I." He said smirking.
Kimi stuck her tongue out at him and jumped over him. "I'm going."
Mark got up and smiled. "Okay..theres a couch in my dressing room, I can always put you down for a nap , if you get cranky."
Kimi looked at him for a minute and started laughing. "You're nuts."
Mark nodded. "C'mon brat."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kimi tried not to think about Jeff. He had made it clear by not returning his call he wanted nothing to do with her, and it hurt, like hell, she was in love with him, she kept remembering the month she had spent with him, it had been wonderful, she couldn't believe she had been fooled by him, she had thought he had really liked her.
She really wasn't sure she wanted to run into him, she wanted to see him, because she missed him, she didn't want to see him, cause she knew it would hurt.
She was in Mark's dressing room, he was having his match which she watched on the monitor.
Kimi yawned. God she had to wake up. She knew where catering was and decided she would go get a cup of coffee.
Kimi walked in catering and waved at John Cena, He smiled and waved her over. "Hey its nice to see you again."
Kimi smiled. "You to, I just came down here to grab a coffee."
"Sit down, I'll grab you a cup, black?"
Kimi nodded and John went over and got her cup, and came back handing it to her. "Thanks."
John smiled. "No problem..so you visiting with Mark?"
"Yea I needed a little down time." She said sipping the hot brew.
"Well I'm sure you'll have a blast, this life ain't for everyone, but a lot of people love it." He said.
Kimi nodded in agreement. "I love traveling myself seeing new places...I always did have wanderlust, which is why I never teach for long periods of time, I like the moving around."
John grinned. "Then you'll fit in real well around here."
Randy came in and saw Kimi and came over sitting next to her. "Hey Kimi."
Kimi smiled. "Hey Randy, I was getting a little sleepy, so I wandered down for some coffee."
Randy looked at her. "You look a little tired."
Kimi shrugged. "A little."
John watched Randy and what he saw was not good, Randy was acting like he did when he got focused on a a female, Jeff was his friend, this would only cause big problems. Jeff hadn't told John what went down between him and Kimi, but Jeff had been in one long bad mood since he got back, he knew they must have went their separate ways, Jeff would not be happy. "I got to go..I'm up next..I'll see you around Kimi."
Kimi smiled at John as he left. Randy took her hand. "Are you hungry?" Kimi shook her head. "No thanks..I better get back to Mark's dressing room."
"I'll walk you back." Randy said and got up throwing her cup away for her.
They were heading for the door, when it swung open and Jeff came walking in. Kimi and Jeff just froze looking at each other and Randy grinned, Jeff was full of shit, he loved this girl, he just needed to talk to her and get this mess straightened out.
Jeff turned angry eyes on Randy, he sure wasn't wasting no time, making time with Kimi.
Randy tried hard not to laugh. "Uhh Kimi..I got to go grab a bottled water, be right back."
Kimi nodded but her eyes hadn't left Jeff, he was just as handsome as she remembered, she wanted to rush in his arms and hug him, but she remembered, he didn't want anything to do with her apparently.
Jeff turned back to her, it was all he could do not to take her in his arms, but he held himself back, she was a two timing bitch, just like Becky, he told himself.
"Sakima, you look good, can we talk for a minute?" She asked softly.
Jeff looked in her brown eyes and he just nodded, they walked over to a empty table and sat down.
Kimi looked at him, he looked so closed off, his eyes blank, could she have been so wrong about him. "Sakima , why haven't you called me, returned my calls?" She asked knowing whatever he said was going to hurt.
Jeff looked away from her, was she crazy, she should know why he didn't want anything to do with her. "Because Kimi, as soon as you were away from me, you were out fucking other guys." He hissed low enough so no one could hear him but her.
Kimi was startled at the anger in his eyes. "What are you talking about, I haven't been with anyone but you."
Jeff laughed. "Yea okay Kimi, like you and Mark Aren't sleeping together, I called you and he answered your phone and he was asleep and I heard you in the background, asking who it was, deny that, then just the week before, I called you and some strange guy answered your phone, said you were napping or some shit, I know you sleep with that phone next to you, I'm not stupid okay." He snapped.
Kimi sat stunned, this was why he hadn't called her, ignored her calls, because he had jumped to some dumb conclusions , she knew she had a few choices, she could try to set him straight, but more than likely he wouldn't believe her, but Kimi didn't feel like she owed him any explanation, if he was this distrustful and fast to jump to the wrong conclusion, she felt she really didn't need to be with him, love with out trust is nothing and they would both be miserable, no she wasn't going to be in a relationship with a man, who thought so little of her, she deserved better. "Sakima..I told you the truth..I have only been with you." She looked him in the eye. "I love you."
Jeff just sat there, he wished he could believe her, he wanted to, but he had his proof in his mind, she was a liar just like Becky, she had claimed to love him too. "Explain why some strange man answered your phone, why you and Mark were sleeping together." He demanded anger glittering in his green eyes.
Kimi looked at him sadly and shook her head. "No Sakima, love means trust to me, if you truly think I would sleep with another man after what we shared, then we don't need to be together..I will not explain myself to you, you either believe me when I say I haven't been with a man except you or you don't...I wont be with you and be cross examined about everything I say or do or every phone call, trust me or not thats up to you."
Jeff just stared at her was she kidding, she didn't think she owed him a explanation why her and Mark were sleeping in the same room. Jeff stood up. "You're just a slut Kimi, thats the only explanation there is." He snapped and walked off.
Kimi was no stranger to pain, she had lived in pain over Sin's death for over a year, but this hurt was different, she had opened herself up to love again and Jeff threw it back in her face, tears streamed down her cheeks, she couldn't stop them.
Randy had witnessed the end of Jeff's little speech, he sat down beside Kimi and pulled her in his arms. "Shhh don't cry Kimi, he's a fool." Randy said his hand rubbing her back.
She looked up at Randy. "I love him, I told him I loved him." Randy watched the tears run down her cheeks. He sighed, Jeff was letting his past issues screw this up. "I know Kimi, c'mon lets get you back to Mark's dressing room." Randy stood and kept a arm around her as they slowly walked back to Mark's dressing room. He led her in and shut the door. "Sit down ." Randy said pulling her down beside him on the couch.
Randy pulled her against him and let her cry, he wished there was something he could do, he was hoping when Jeff seen Kimi, he would realize he loved her, and the two would work it out, but Jeff was being a real ass hole, he had talked to Jeff plenty and he couldn't get through to him. Randy didn't know what else to do. Jeff was his friend and he wanted him happy, but he wasn't going to let himself be happy. Randy looked down at Kimi, she had stopped sobbing, she was still a little teary eyed. "I'm sorry Kimi."
She nodded. "Thanks Randy, for being so nice."
Randy cupped her cheek. "You're real easy to be nice too."
Randy sat with her until he realized she was asleep. He laid her back on the couch and covered her with Mark's jacket.
He stood up and paced , he realized he was going to have to tell Mark what had happened. Mark would quite possibly kill Jeff, while he was angry at Jeff, he didn't want to see him dead or maimed for life.
He only hope Mark would let it go for Kimi's sake, it wouldn't do her any good if Mark went and beat up Jeff.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mark walked in after his match to find Kimi asleep and Randy pacing the floor. "Whats wrong?" he growled.
Randy looked at Mark, he knew he had to tell him. "Lets go outside so we don't bother Kimi."
Mark followed him outside the door and he shut it. "What?" Mark demanded.
Randy filled him in on what happened between Kimi and Jeff and with each word, he seem Mark get madder and madder.
Mark turned to leave. "Mark if you hurt him, you'll get fired." Randy says trying to talk some sense into Mark.
Mark looked at Randy. "I'm not stupid Orton, stay with Kimi, till I get back."
Randy nodded and went back in the dressing room. He watched Kimi sleeping, he just hoped Kimi would get over the way Jeff had treated her. He had a feeling when Kimi loved someone, it was a deep thing, that meant deep hurt.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mark was back about a half an hour later. Randy jumped up. "What did you do?"
Mark grabbed his street clothes. "I talked to Vince I got a match with that little jerk next week."
Randy groaned. Mark wasn't dumb, this was a way to legally beat the hell outta Jeff.
"Randy thanks for staying with her." Mark said.
Randy shrugged. "I like her she's a nice girl."
Mark nodded. "Yea she is." He went to go change into his street clothes and came out a minute later in jeans and a t-shirt.
"I'm gonna' go, tell her Kimi, I'll see her in Atlanta." Randy said.
Mark nodded and sat down next to Kimi as Randy left. She was sleeping way to much, he was going to get her to eat something tonight if he had to feed her himself.
Mark shook her gently. "Kimi wake up."
She opened her eyes and Mark had to stop the anger from rising in his gut, her eyes were red from crying over that bastard. What would Sin think of the way he was watching over Kimi, not damn much, he was failing miserably. "C'mon' sweetheart, lets get you back to the hotel."
Kimi sat up and yawned. "Sorry I keep falling asleep on you."
Mark smiled. "Its okay, lets go..I want you to eat before you go to bed."
Kimi stood up and looked at Mark. "Randy told you didn't he?"
Mark nodded. "I don't want you to worry about him, Kimi, he's not good enough for you."
Kimi didn't say anything, maybe not, but that didn't change the fact that she loved him, and her heart was breaking. "Let's go." She said.
Mark grabbed his bag and followed her out.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Randy found Jeff in his dressing room and slammed the door behind him. "What the fuck is wrong with you, why did you talk to her like that?"
Jeff looked at Randy. "You fucking her now or what?"
Randy shook his head sadly. "Man you're being a idiot, that girl loves you."
Jeff just looked away. "No she doesn't, if she did, she wouldn't be running around sleeping with other guys."
Randy turned to go. "Jeff you're making a a huge mistake."
Jeff shrugged. "It's mine to make."
Randy left and Jeff flopped down in a chair, leaning his head back, how he wished he could believe her, but she wouldn't give him no explanation, how could he believe her, when she had no answer for his questions?
Kimi wouldn't even try to defend herself, so that meant she had no defense, he reached down in his bag and pulled out the totem she had gave him, he opened the pouch and pulled out the lock of hair and pressed it to his lips, God how he wished he was wrong. He slipped the hair back in there and closed the pouch and put it back in his bag and got up. It was over, he just needed to put it behind him.
