Lita stood there trembling as she dropped the gun, she was in shock wondering how the hell she could have possibly done what she had just done, how could her life end up like this? Lita backed up against a wall as she began to remember a moment, a moment that had changed her entire life.
One Year Ago
Lita sighed as she walked to her apartment slowly, she had just had a thirteen hour shift and was ready to have some sleep and get back to work in eight hours, since she had been living in New York three years she had grown to like walking in the dark, sure she was more likely to get mugged or something but, she liked it there.
"What is a beautiful woman like you, walking around in the dark by herself for?" a man asked.
"Trying to avoid men with cheesy pick up lines." Lita replied as she looked at the man, she hadn't had a date since she had broken up with a man who she didn't like to think about.
"Is that so? Well then I guess I'll just take my cheesy pick up lines and call you, maybe tomorrow?"
Lita rolled her eyes but she couldn't help but be charmed by the man, he just seemed different from men she had met in the past, "I don't recall giving you my number or my name for that matter."
"Well based on your nametag there I'm going to take a wild guess and say it's Amy."
"Actually my boss made me put that, it may be my legal name but I've always preferred Lita, Lita Dumas." Lita stated as she crossed her arms and gave a quick glance at the man, he certainly didn't look anything like her ex boyfriend.
"Well Lita Dumas, I'm the man you're going to marry."
"Cocky are we?" Lita asked as she grinned at him, she liked his persistence.
"No it's just the second I looked at you, do you believe in love at first sight?"
Lita shook her head, she never had believed in that, she believed in love starting when people met then it just happened, that was what she had with her ex boyfriend, "No."
"Well how about I let you fall in love with me the old fashion way at dinner, tomorrow night?"
"Before I answer I need your name." Lita told him, she wasn't going to go on a date with a guy who's name was anonymous to her.
"Well if I look in a mirror I could swear that I'm Ryan Gosling but unfortunately I'm just John Cena."
Lita laughed, "Ryan Gosling?"
"I wish." John replied.
"Well John Cena I think that I'll see you tomorrow." Lita responded as she grabbed her phone out of her purse, "What's your number?"
"Here," John handed her a business card, "give me a call and I'll let you know where we're eating."
"I think I will, but I am a busy woman." Lita said as she looked at John again, he may have not been Ryan Gosling but he was something else and she liked it.
Eight Years Ago
"Why the hell did so many people show up for such a lame auction?" Lita asked as she was manning a booth with her best friend Trish, her stupid school had done these fund raisers for years and of course, all of the students had to help in someway, so some how she had gotten stuck at the lame information booth.
"Because they are selling concert tickets." Trish replied as if it was the most obvious thing in the world, "What does it matter Li, we are going to get enough money to go on our New York trip."
"I guess you're right." Lita grumbled, she still wasn't happy about it though.
"Hey are you manning the information desk?" a guy their age asked as he looked at Lita as he walked up to the booth with another guy.
"Yeah why?" Lita asked trying not to smile at the guy who had just walked up to the desk.
"Well I need some information." the guy stated as he looked Lita up and down instantly attracted to her.
"And what would that be?" Lita asked as she followed in suit.
"I need your name, phone number, and where you'll be after the auction."
"Lita, I don't give my number out to strangers, and I assume wherever you plan on going." Lita told him, he seemed so cool.
The guys looked at each other before nodding and looking back at Lita, before saying in unison, "Lita, that name is totally reeking of awesomeness."
Lita laughed as she tried not to blush, he was something else, "Well why don't you let me know your name."
"I'm Edge and this is my cousin Christian." Edge introduced himself not taking his eyes off Lita, all he could think was she was really hot.
"Edge, I like that." Lita said not being able to think of anything but how good Edge looked, "So where are we going after this?"
"There's this burger place I hang out at, Burger Top, I'll see you there in three hours." Edge stated, "But I think I'm going to have to give you something to remember me."
"How the hell could I forget you?" Lita asked smiling at Edge as she leaned over the booth.
"You never know there could be some guy out of nowhere and before you know it, I become Edge who?" Edge replied, he hoped that she was falling for this crap he was saying because he was pretty sure he sounded like an idiot.
"I never thought of that." Lita said, she had no idea why she was falling for his crappy lines, but she was, "So what are you going to give me?"
Edge smirked before kissing her and for whatever reason he didn't want to stop, but forced himself to pull away, "So I'll see you in a few hours."
"Yeah." Lita replied in shock, that was the best kiss she had ever had.
"Great." With that Edge turned around and walked out the door, before smiling, "Well that worked."
Present Day
"Why are you letting her stay with you?" Randy asked convinced that after they talked it would be a different story.
"Because she's nice." Trish told him unaware of why Randy wanted to know this.
"Trish-"
"Why do you care so much?" Trish interrupted him.
"Because I-Was that a gun?" Randy asked, thrilled that he didn't have to come up with an excuse.
"I think it was." Trish replied uncertainty clear in her voice, until she realized something, her eyes went wide before she walked back into the waiting room before walking back to where Randy was standing, "Randy where the hell is Edge?"
"Is he not back in the waiting room?" Randy asked as his worry became evident in his voice.
"No he isn't in there." Trish said hastily, "We have to make sure nothing happened to him Randy."
"Was Stacy in there?" Randy asked as the blond girl came back into his mind, he was still confused about her but he knew he didn't want her hurt, ever.
"Yeah, why?" Trish asked, remembering their conversation before the gun had went off.
"No reason I was just wondering if she was." Randy muttered as he tried to think of a way to change the subject, "We need to find Edge."
Trish nodded, but where could they actually go, "I'll follow you."
"Randy, Trish, did you guys hear the gun?" Stacy asked as she walked towards them, she had heard it and immediately wanted to find Randy, but instead she had went into Lita's room, "Guys Lita isn't in her room, what if John killed her."
Randy unsure of what to do went up to Stacy and hugged her, "Hey you can't be sure of that."
"She's my best friend, I should have known he was hurting her, if I would have we wouldn't be here and she may not be dead!" Stacy exclaimed as she started crying on Randy's shoulder, she couldn't help it, this all could have been avoided.
"Hey Stacy this was not your fault in anyway, shape, or form, we don't know if Lita was hurt by this, and if she was all we can do is blame that stupid son of a bitch, you understand me?" Randy asked, he felt for the girl he used to feel the same way about his parents, but they didn't have time for tears, they needed to find Lita and Edge.
Lita sat on the wall as tears came out of her eyes both John and Edge were on the ground covered in blood, she had done it, she had pulled the trigger, and she was pretty sure she had just killed him, "Is he dead?"
"Lita!" Randy called as he Stacy and Trish walked in the room.
"I didn't have a choice." Lita stated as she trembled, she had shot him, she had actually shot him, she couldn't believe it.
"I'm covered in blood."
"I'm so sorry Edge, I'm so sorry." Lita cried as she continued leaning against the wall, with tears flowing freely out her eyes.
"It's okay Lita, I'm okay, just a little bloody." Edge told her as he stood up, he had never been more terrified, Lita had just saved his life.
"I think I just killed my husband."
