A week had passed. Mackenzie and Randy hadn't really spoken since they kissed last week. Mackenzie was more confused now then ever. She knew neither one of them had planned to kiss last week. While she knew she didn't love Luke yet, she knew Randy loved AJ and that AJ loved him. To top it off it was John's birthday tomorrow. One of the hardest days of the year for Mackenzie. Randy was at the arena for Raw sitting in his locker room. AJ walked in.

"Hi baby." Randy said.

"Hi." She sat down next to him. They kissed. "Randy what's a matter?"

"Nothing."

"It's ok you can tell me." "I know something's been off with you the last couple days."

"I've just had things on my mind."

"Like John's birthday?"

"Yeah."

"I know that's a hard day for both you and Mackenzie." "If you two need time to hang out tomorrow I'll find something to do."

"Alright."

"I love you Randy."

"I love you to AJ." They kissed.

Mackenzie was in her office there was a knock at the door.

"Come in." She said. Stephanie walked in. "Stephanie hi." "This is a surprise."

"We need to talk."

"Alright." Stephanie sat down.

"I was wondering how you like working with Randy?"

"It's fun."

"I know how you can work with someone and emotions can get attached." "Believe me Hunter and I know that better then anyone."

"I'm sorry I don't know what you're talking about."

"I was in the area on business last week when you got hurt." "I got a call and decided to go to the arena to see if you were ok." "When I got to your office the door was cracked a little." "I saw you and Randy kissing."

"Oh god." "You don't understand." "What you saw was just an isolated incident." "There's nothing between Randy and me." "I have a boyfriend." "He has a girlfriend."

"It's ok." "Calm down." "It's your business." "I came here to ask you if you wanted to end your storyline with Randy?"

"No."

"You're sure."

"I'm a professional and like I said what you saw isn't going to happened again."

"Ok."

"You're not gonna say anything to anyone?"

"Of course not."

"Good because he loves AJ." "I'm happy with Luke."

"I'm sure you are."

"Is there anything else?"

"No." She stood up and went to leave.

"Stephanie." Stephanie turned around. "Thank you for being so discreet about this."

"You're welcome."

Twenty minutes after Stephanie left there was another knock at Mackenzie's door.

"Come in." She said. Randy walked in. "Randy close the door we need to talk."

"What's wrong?"

"Stephanie Mcmahon saw us last week."

"Saw us what?" "Oh my god, you don't mean she saw us kissing?"

"Yeah."

"Oh no." "It didn't mean anything."

"I know that's what I told her." "Don't worry she's not gonna tell."

"Thank god."

"Randy, what happened between us last week, it can't happen again."

"I agree."

"Our emotions just got the better of us."

"Yeah, that's all it was."

"I mean we're both in committed relationships." "You love AJ." "I have Luke." "It's not like me and you in love each other or something."

"Yeah I know."

"Let's go out there and have a fun show."

"I'll try not to hurt you this time."

"Ok."

The next day it was really early in the morning. Mackenzie flew to Los Angeles. She was glad the house shows they were doing that day were in Nevada and it wouldn't take that long to fly there. Mackenzie pulled up in front of the cemetery where John was buried. She found his grave.

"Hi honey." "Happy birthday." "Here's a new picture of Alex for you." She taped it to his grave and sat down. "I really miss you on days like today." "I wish you could see Alex." "She's getting really big." "I'm seeing someone now." "His name is Luke." "He's a really good guy." "No matter what though, he's not you." "He loves me but I don't love him." "I don't know if I ever will." "I wish I could just have you back." "Then I wouldn't be in this mess." "There is another person." "He'll never be you either but he reminds me a lot of you." "I feel guilty." "I know you're probably mad at me for even considering him." "I'm mad at myself to." "He's in love with someone else." "You don't have to worry though." "Nothing's going to happened there." "I can't believe it's been two years." She started to cry. "It wasn't supposed to be like this." "You're still supposed to be here with me but you're not." "I love you, John." "I gotta go." "I'll tell Alex her daddy loves her."

An hour later Randy showed up at that same cemetery. He found John's grave.

"Hey man." "Happy birthday." "We would've been hitting the town tonight." "The crazy ass times we had huh?" "It was always fun though." "I'm seeing AJ now." "I love her a lot." "Sometimes I think about someone I shouldn't." "I know you know who I mean and I'm sorry." "I'm surprised you haven't came back from the dead and killed me yet." "I wouldn't blame you." "I can see why you fell in love with her though." "She's beautiful and she's a great mother." "I don't know what she's doing with this guy she's seeing." "She's clearly not happy and she's trying to fool herself into thinking that she is." "Anyway I hope you don't hate me." "Don't worry I'm gonna back off." "Plus it's not fair to AJ." "Happy birthday." "See ya."

Later that day Mackenzie was in her office at the arena. She'd been bummed and depressed all day. Her office phone rang.

"Hello?" She said.

"Hi." Luke said.

"Hi."

"How are you doing?"

"Not good."

"Poor baby." "Is there anything I can do?"

"No."

"Hang in there."

"I'll try."

"I love you."

"I know." "I gotta go."

"Ok bye."

"Bye." They hung up. There was a knock at the door. "Come in." Randy walked in. "Hi."

"Hi." Randy said. "Are you ok?"

"Not really." "You know how today is for me."

"Yeah."

"John would've been forty-one today."

"I know.'

"I miss him so much." She said starting to cry. They hugged.

"I know I miss him to." "It's ok, it's ok."

"I'm glad you're here." "You're the only one who understands what I'm going through."

"Here." He handed her a tissue from her desk.

"Thanks." She wiped her eyes.

"I gotta go get ready for my match." "Are you gonna be ok?"

"Yeah."

"Ok." "See you in a little while." He left.
