...A Week Later...
-The Mall-
Alyson along with her brother and father had decided to go to the mall her father needed some help picking out an anniversary gift for Denise so they thought they'd make a day of it and go out for lunch they had just finished lunch and Alyson said they should hit the mall because they could hit a bunch of different stores in one place. "I still think we should get her what I was talking about.." Alex shrugged
Alyson shook her head "No woman wants to get a new washer and dryer for their anniversary.." Alyson scuffed.
"She was talking about how they should get a new set.." Alex shrugged
"I'm sure she wasn't wanting it as a gift from him.." Alyson sighed
"I guess your right.." Alex sighed
"So what were you thinking we should get?" Rodger questioned
"We should check out a few dress shops... I know she wanted to find something for the dinner you have planned.." Alyson smiled
"Then lets go.." Rodger smiled
They were walking towards a dress shop when they saw someone familiar. "Seth.." Alyson smiled as they had walked up on Seth.
Seth turned around when he heard his name. "Alyson..." Seth smiled giving her a quick hug.
"Alex... Dad.." Alyson couldn't think how weird it was to call him dad. "This is Seth Rollins... we work together.." Alyson smiled "Seth this is Alex and my father Rodger.." Alyson said looking between the three of them.
"Nice to meet you.." Rodger smiled shaking Seth's hand.
"You to sir.." Seth smiled
Alex smiled and shook Seth's hand.
"What are you doing in town?" Alyson questioned
"Raw is in town Monday I didn't have to go to the house show so I just thought I'd show up early and I was actually hoping I'd see you and we could hang out with out your sidekicks.." Seth laughed
"Oh but Nikki and Brie swear they are so much fun..." Alyson laughed
"Not so much.." Seth shook his head with a laugh. "I texted you a little while ago.."
"Oh my phone didn't go off.." Alyson patted her pocket. "Damn I forgot my phone.. I'll be right back guys.."
"Alright.." Alex nodded as did the other two men and Alyson walked off. "So... you and Alyson seem to be pretty good friends.." Alex looked to Seth.
"We are I guess you could say.." Seth shrugged. "Alyson is an amazing person.." Seth smiled
"I know she turned out really great.." Rodger smiled
-Entrance Of The Mall-
Alyson had just gotten her phone out of the car and walked back into the mall she stopped just short of bumping into someone. Alyson looked the man up and down and smiled to herself. "Randy.." Alyson said softly.
Randy was on his phone sending a message when he heard her voice he looked up and smiled "Alyson.." Randy smiled
"what brings you here?" Alyson questioned
"Alanna had a dance competition yesterday and I decided to stay in town until Monday instead of leaving first thing this morning like Alanna and Samantha.." Randy shrugged.
"I see..." Alyson smiled "So how have you been?" Alyson asked it had only been a week since her birthday and the last time she'd talked to him.
"Good... been keeping myself busy.. with classes.. and hitting the gym.." Randy smiled flexing his arm
"I can tell.." Alyson patted his arm when he flexed for her.
Randy looked behind her and could see Alex her brother walking up with an older man and was that Seth Rollins? Yes it was he couldn't help but tense up when he saw him. Alyson noticed this and looked behind her and saw her father and brother walking up with Seth. "Hey guys.." Alyson said once they made it.
"We were wondering where you'd gone to... it was taking a pretty long.." Rodger said looking between his daughter and Randy whom he already couldn't stand.
"We were getting worried.." Alex said. "Looks like we had every right to be.." Alex added rolling his eyes.
"Alex.." Alyson scolded then looked up to give Randy a look as if to say she was sorry for her brother.
"Umm.. I should get going.." Randy said shaking his head.
"Yeah you should.. you should also stay gone.." Alex rolled his eyes.
"That's enough Alex.." Alyson shook her head.
"Bye Alyson.. I'll see you around.. hopefully..." Randy smiled at Alyson before turning around to walk away.
"Not going to happen.." Alex spat. "Stay away from my sister.." Alex added
Randy stopped in his tracks and turned around.
Alyson's eyes widened. "Alex.."
Randy took a deep breath and counted to three then turned back around then started to walk away.
"Yes... finally leave.. no one wants you around... leave.." Alex rolled his eyes.
Randy clinched his fists trying to control his temper he stopped in his tracks again but didn't turn to face the group he just took a deep breath and counted to three and could still feel his temper rising so he did it again.
"You should quit while your ahead Alex.." Seth said quietly.
"Why?... everyone knows it.. he's no good for Alyson.." Alex snapped "But he keeps trying to convince her he's a good man.."
Randy's fists clinched even tighter shaking his head he took another deep breath and started to walk away.
"Come on man.. lets him go.. stop poking at him..." Seth said quietly
Randy started walking again as he unclenched his fists.
"If there is a god he'll keep that man away from my sister... you seem like a good match for my sister..you should give it a shot Alyson.." Alex looked to Alyson who's eyes widened.
"Stop.." Alyson gasped.
Randy heard this and clinched his fists back again and turned around and started toward the group again. "Listen here you little.." Randy could feel his temper rising.
"What?... what are you going to do hit me?" Alex puffed out his chest.
"That's enough Alex.." Alyson sighed "Stop.."
"What he's not going to do anything to me.. I'm not a woman he only hits women.." Alex spat.
Randy stepped forward and Alyson stepped in front of him "Randy.." Alyson eyes pleaded with him.
Randy took a deep breath and shook his head. "I'm trying Alyson... I'm trying.." Randy sighed
"I know.." Alyson said softly.
Randy turned back around and started walking away.
"Your baiting him Alex.." Alyson sighed turning to her brother. "Go.. lets go..." Alyson pointed behind him.
"Why are you defending him?... are you that scared of him?... Hey Randy come try something with someone closer to your size.." Alex said
Alyson shook her head and tried pushing him back as he started toward Randy who she could tell was trying to control his self. "Stop.."
"No... I think he needs to learn to stay away from my family... " Alex said trying move her to the side but in the heat of the moment he shoved her to hard and she hit the ground.
Randy having enough turned around just in time to see Alex shove Alyson to the ground. Once he saw Alyson hit the ground Randy lost it and charged Alex shoving him to the ground.
"Alyson.." Seth leaned down to check on her.
"Oh god.. Randy.." Alyson yelled as Randy brought his fist to connect with Alex's face. "Stop.. please.."
Randy wasn't hearing it and his fist connected with Alex again.
Alyson jumped up and ran over to Alex and Randy grabbing Randy's arm as he went to hit Alex again. "Please.. Randy.." Alyson said her voice shaky as tears gathered in her eyes.
Randy felt Alyson's hands on his arms and heard her voice and turned to face Alyson he saw how upset she was. Randy sighed and shook his head backing up. "I'm.. I'm sorry.." Randy put his hands up as he continued to back away before turning around making a b-line for the door.
Alyson looked down at Alex. "Why would you do that?... why couldn't you just stop?" Alyson shook her head before walking after Randy.
Seth and Rodger helped Alex off the ground "What was that about Son?" Rodger asked
"What do you mean dad?" Alex sighed touching his busted lip shaking his head.
"You kept baiting him.. you knew what you were doing... " Rodger shook his head "He was trying to leave but you kept baiting him right back in.. that wasn't smart.."
"Tell me you weren't actually trying to fight him?... you know what he does for a living right?" Seth shook his head.
"I didn't want to fight him.. I wanted Alyson to see Randy is not changed... he still can't control his temper.." Alex shrugged
"It'd be hard for me to control my self if someone was coming at me like that.. and I don't have anger issues.." Seth shook his head.
"That wasn't right Alex.." Rodger shook his head. "It wasn't right at all.." Rodger added with a sigh.
-Outside-
Alyson got outside to see Randy in a corner pacing a few steps before going back and again. Alyson walked over to him cautiously. "Randy.." Alyson said softly.
Randy looked up at her and shook his head.
"I'm sorry.. my brother was wrong.." Alyson shook her head.
"Are you okay?" Randy stepped to her placing a hand on her shoulder.
"I'm fine.." Alyson said she could feel he was still so angry because when he touched her shoulder his hand was shaking he was so angry.
"This can't happen again.." Randy sighed
"It won't.. I'm going to have a talk with my brother.." Alyson sighed.
"No... I mean I can't be around you any more.." Randy looked down at her.
"What?" Alyson looked confused.
"I can't control my temper.. these damn classes aren't working.." Randy sighed. "I can't let myself hurt you again.. "
"This wasn't your fault Randy... he was baiting you.." Alyson explained
"I still attacked him Alyson... I didn't control my temper... I should of walked away or something.." Randy shook his head.
"You did.. more then once.. he kept trying to bait you.." Alyson sighed "This isn't your fault.. this is his fault.."
"I can't do this Alyson.. I can't risk hurting you again.. I love you to much.." Randy sighed shaking his head.
"Please don't give up on us Randy..." Alyson said tears burning at her eyes.
"I'm sorry Alyson.." Randy sighed and looked to the ground. "It looks like this anger management isn't for everyone.. "
"Don't say that.." Alyson shook her head "You made me promise you I wouldn't give up on us... and now your the one giving up on us... this isn't right.." Alyson cried out.
"I have to Alyson.. I just have to..." Randy kissed her forehead before turning to walk away.
Alyson shook her head "Please Randy.. don't do this.." Alyson said almost sobbing as tears start to pour from her eyes.
Randy shook his head and kept walking he loved Alyson so much he couldn't risk hurting her again. It was supposed to be helping but now he was right where he was before not being able to control his temper.
Alyson shook her head as she watched Randy walk across the parking lot. Alyson turned around tears in her eyes as she saw her brother and father walk out followed by Seth. Alyson looked at Alex "You... this is your fault.." Alyson spat. "You couldn't leave him alone.. you knew how much I love him... and you didn't care.. "
"Alyson.. calm down.." Alex sighed
"No.. I won't.. because of you I lost him... he's given up on us.. " Alyson sobbed shaking her head "He was trying to change... why couldn't you just let him?.. why did you do that?" Alyson shook her head trying to wipe the tears from her eyes but there wasn't any use for it because the tears just kept flooding from her eyes.
Seth shook his head hating seeing Alyson hurt like this he walked over to her wrapping his arms around her pulling her close to him. Alyson buried her head in his chest and continued to sob.
Alex shook his head he had never seen his sister so hurt and angry and this was happening at the same time. He was just trying to protect her he thought she'd be upset with him but he didn't think she would be this angry with him.
Rodger shook his head and grabbed Alex's arm before he could step towards Alyson. "You've done enough... " Rodger pushed him towards the parking lot pointing towards the car. Rodger looked to Seth who mouthed he would take care of her and Rodger nodded and mouthed the words Thank you.
Alyson just continued to sob into Seth's chest why was this happening? She thought there was a chance for Randy and her he was doing so good but Alex wouldn't let up. Why was he baiting him why couldn't Alex just leave him alone Randy was trying to do the right thing and leave but Alex wouldn't let it happen and now she'd lost Randy.
