If Bray allowed himself to think like a child he would say it wasn't fair for Abigail to be gone. But life wasn't fair the old saying said. That was never truer than for him. He always thought of Abigail. She was the one face he never pushed from his mind. She was the most perfect woman he had ever seen.
Not because she was perfect in fact she was as beautifully imperfect as a person could be. But she looked at him without prejudice. She was beautiful but not the beauty the world could understand. Some might say she looked average. But on the inside that beauty was fierce.
She could pierce a heart with just one word. She was strong as an ox but as fragile as a feather. Maybe that explained why she left. She left as quickly as a feather blowing in the wind. Of course she still called to him always. She was among him and not among him. The contradiction suddenly seemed simple.
But it was far from that. Sister Abigail was the most important person in his life. She was his sister, mother, and lover all rolled into one. If people heard him speak of that they would mistake it. Nothing about his relationship with Abigail. It was never a sexual one. She wouldn't have done that.
She was much too innocent and pure. But oh how that could be dangerous. Why was it the world always had to hurt the angels like that? But Abigail was his true love. She was his life, his purpose, and his dream. She was that light in the darkness, and in his dark heart. She was always there.
But she was her own cautionary tale. She was her own teachable moment. Her own worst enemy. If she had a song about her, if she was a ballad then that ballad would be a sad one. She was a tribute waiting to happen. Waiting for someone to tribute her. Tribute everything they did to her. Ten inspiring things she could have done had she lived came to mind.
But that wouldn't happen now. Even if she was with him. She left with the beauty of a swan, the humble manners of a dove, and the vengeful anger of a crow. She was a contradiction even to herself. She was a beautiful mess. The missing piece of the puzzle he was trying to find. The mystery he wanted to unravel. She looked for peace but could never find it. Happiness too seemed to evade her like the plague.
John and Nikki were in bed but neither could sleep. "Nikki am sorry I really am. "What are you sorry for it wasn't your fault? "It's not your fault either and you're wrong. It is my fault. Bray keeps going after you to get to me. And I don't know what to do. There isn't many times that I don't. It doesn't make sense.
"John I am not mad at you. I'm mad at the situation. I enjoy wrestling and doing total divas. And that is being taken from me. "And that sucks I can't do anything about it. I want you to do what you enjoy. And to explore your passions. I never meant for this to happen. I never meant for my career or anything to affect yours.
"I know that but it always has. Everything I do is because I'm dating you. At least that's what people say. They never talked about it much but they knew it was true. People did say that and believed it. Nikki felt bad saying it to John. She didn't want him to feel bad. She knew it wasn't his fault. People said a lot of negative things about him as well.
John was quiet for a minute. "I'm sorry that they say that. I know it's not true. I see how hard you work. Nothing you have is because of me. Nikki leaned her head on his shoulder. "John I'm worried. She couldn't bring herself to say scared. Even though that's exactly what she was. They both knew that of course.
But even in the privacy of their bedroom Nikki couldn't do it. She was supposed to be fearless. It was what she stood for and told other girls. It's why they believed in her. But here she was unable to admit her feelings to herself or her boyfriend. What was happening in her life? What was happening to her?
She never would have imagined this days months or years ago. But this was quickly becoming her life. Her reality and her fears. People could usually escape fears though some were irrational. But Nikki couldn't escape this and it was perfectly rational. Even though nothing about the Wyatt family was rational. But did that even make a difference?
"You have a lot to prove to us Braun. Braun listened as Bray spoke. You are our newest member. But truly we all have a lot to prove to each other and the world. Say we make Nikki a member of our family? Oh the things Abigail might say to her. Things we know she will say to her. It is glorious to think about. Though truly I questioned it myself once.
Why would Nikki Bella girlfriend of John Cena, twin of another former model. Sister in-law to a former member of The Wyatt family Daniel Bryan. Step daughter to the former talent of relations and general manager John Laurinitus. It doesn't make sense. But maybe that's how life is supposed to be. I certainly would agree with that assumption.
Because I don't make the rules none of us do. Yet we are expected to suck it up and deal with it. But we can change things. We can make the world a better place. Change everything for the better. Set the world on fire by making Nikki our sister. Perhaps even making John a member. The changes that would have to be made.
But the things that we could accomplish. Especially with John and Nikki as our members. We can change the world for the better. It is very true and I can happen. My brothers we can make it happen. We can stop the war. The war we create within ourselves. Humans create this every day within themselves. Help me to stop it. We can do it and we will do it. Just trust in me and il trust in you .
