Ride For You

Chapter 25

4 months later…

To say that Rachelle's life was back to normal would be a total lie. She had to watch her every move and her back in order to steer away any chance of seeing or running into Samantha. She was scared for her life. She wasn't ready to die. She never imagined leaving her children so early. She never imagined dying while not even being married to Randy. And that's how she wanted to die but she feared that they may never be a chance of her having that life again. She had completely lost Randy. They hadn't even spoken in over 6 months now. But she wasn't exactly worried about that. She had moved back to her original house. The house that she had been living in when she and Randy were fighting during his fight with her family. It had been so long that she had been in the house that everything looked so dusty. Thankfully Kristen and Gail, one of Rachelle's closest best friends, volunteered to help her get situated back into her house. Before Rachelle knew it, she was fully happy living in her house again.

Now a very pregnant Rachelle waddled around the arena. She was trying to help out her siblings with as much as she could but they had tried to persuade her to stay home after what Kurt had told her. She thought back to the moment when he had told her what Samantha wanted to do to her.

Flashback…

"She's planning to kill Rachelle." Kurt said as he looked at Rachelle.

"What do you mean she's planning to kill Rachelle?" Jeff asked.

"Exactly what that sentence means. Rachelle shouldn't be left alone walking around anywhere. Samantha wants to tear you into shreds with her own bare hands or preferably shoot you to death because she believes you were the one thing that tore up her relationship with Randy. She doesn't care where she sees you. Nothing is gonna stop her from killing you. That's why you need someone to be with you at all times." Kurt said.

"But I've never done anything to her. Randy's always told me that it was her own fault that he left her. She chose to cheat him all the time and he said that he had warned her that he wouldn't stay with her if she kept on cheating. But she didn't listen." Rachelle said.

"She's in denial that she's done anything wrong in their relationship. She blames him for being the one who cheated but I agree with you when you say that you've done nothing to hurt her. You really haven't. You were the innocent one in the situation. You couldn't help falling in love with Randy or marrying him. No one ever plans those things. When she had come to me, which I don't even know how she found me, I think I was still pissed off at the fact that he was getting more shine time in the WWE than I was so I went along with what she wanted to do. But after we had hurt you, I had wanted out. I couldn't handle hurting a woman. I was raised better then that to hit a woman." Kurt said.

"So what triggered you to come talk to me now? I mean you could have talked to me before about things." Rachelle said.

"The day that she had called up Randy and told him about the pictures, I had a feeling he was going to kick you out. Samantha really is manipulative and knows her ways of working Randy out. Exactly the same way you know how to affect the way that Randy feels. She called me after she and Randy had gone back to the house to tell me her plans of killing you and how we were going to do it." Kurt said.

"So how is she gonna kill me?" Rachelle asked.

End Flashback…

Things between Kurt and her were getting better. They were slowly hanging out with each other trying to rebuild their friendship. Vince let Kurt come to the WWE every now and then to keep an eye out for Rachelle. He was going to come visit today to check up on her again to make sure that Samantha was going to try anything. He and Rachelle were going to meet by Stephanie's office since that was where Rachelle was supposed to be staying for the time being. Stephanie wanted to make sure that her sister was taken care of and being watched under watchful eyes. The twins had been spending time between parents again since Randy and Rachelle weren't speaking to each other yet again.

Rachelle looked around where she was going. She gasped when she saw someone block her way. "Calm down, Rae. It's just me." She heard the person say as she looked at them. She smiled back at him when she realized that it was just Ted.

"Oh my gosh, Teddy! You scared the crap out of me!" Rachelle said.

"Sorry but you looked so peaceful in your thoughts that I didn't know how to grab your attention." Ted said.

"Not scaring me is one way. What are you up to?" Rachelle asked.

"Well I was informed that I had to find a certain best friend of mine and watch where she was going cause something might happen to her." Ted said winking at Rachelle as she shook her head.

"Did my sister send you?" She asked.

"Her, Paul, and Kurt. Oh yeah and Cody called making sure that I was watching you. Also Kristen made sure of it." Ted said as Rachelle laughed.

"Well looks like you're stuck with me then." Rachelle said.

"Guess so. Where are you headed?" Ted said.

"Just walking around. Pregnancy is killing me. I just wanna just have this baby now." Rachelle said as she rubbed her stomach.

"I can see that. How about we walk over to my locker room and just catch up there?" Ted asked.

"I'd like that cause I'd be able to get some rest." Rachelle said as Ted wrapped his arm around her shoulder.

With Randy…

Randy was sitting in his locker room just thinking. It had been so long since the last time that he had seen Rachelle. He thought that she was probably due to have the baby sometime soon. He wondered how she was doing again. Well he had always wondered that ever since that they were separated. He couldn't help but worry since the fact that he had taken care of her since the first time that she gone into the hospital. There was no way for him to not worry. The twins had been back and forth between him and Rachelle's parents. Rachelle visited them all the time and they always filled Randy in on how she was doing. They were super excited for the baby to come though Randy could see it in their eyes that they were scared that all the attention that was once given to them would be given to the new baby.

Randy was still having mixed emotions. Everyone had been informed to make sure that Rachelle was never left alone since Vince had explained that Samantha was out to kill her. When Randy had heard that news, he wanted to take it upon himself to be the one to watch her but he knew that she wasn't willing to see him yet. Not since the last time that he had seen her, which was when he was kicking her out of their house that they shared together. He thought back to living in that house with just him and the twins. It felt so depressing to think about it. He was so used to her being there but then she was gone. And he was the one who was really to blame. Rachelle had never done anything to hurt him. He had always been the one making the bad judgment while she had been there to guide him through every single mistake that he had made in his life.

Adam had warned him that if Rachelle were to run into him, it was not going to be a pretty image. Randy was prepared for the worst though. He was prepared to fight for her till the very end. That's how their relationship was built. They faced every situation together and fought for each other. Then when the twins came along, their main priorities weren't just towards each other but towards their children. Randy loved his life. He never understood why he cheated on Rachelle. He could never figure out why he had such a hard time adjusting to the life that he had. It may have been that he missed the days were he was really young. Where life was all about just figuring out what woman you wanted to sleep with for the night. When Rachelle had come into his life, everything had changed. He didn't have to worry about which woman he wanted to sleep with each night cause he knew that he wanted to wake up to her beautiful face every morning. She was the best thing that had ever happened to him and he threw it all away.

He was going to look for her so that they could talk things over. Maybe she wouldn't slap him on the face or make him work for forgiveness. Maybe she would be willing to take him back in and accept him as her husband or the father of her children. He didn't mind being friends with her if that's what she wanted. He just wanted to be back in her life. He wanted to know that he had a place there. That she wanted him there. He just wanted to know that she was still going to be part of his life. He knew that there wasn't ever going to be a way where she wasn't part of his life. She would always be there. She was like his best friend, his lover, and the mother of his children of course.

Randy got up from his seat and made his way towards the door. He was going to go for a walk and maybe find something to eat at the catering room. He was of course starving and the twins were with Gail, who had volunteered to watch them since she didn't have a match. He always felt bad for her because of how underrated she was. He felt that the WWE was wasting her amazing talents and pushing the wrong people. But she always told him that she was happy. She was just happy to be back in the WWE and he guessed that he was willing to take that as her answer. As long as she was happy, then he was too for her.

Opening the door, he heard a familiar giggle coming down the hallway in the direction of his locker room. Then he heard the voice of a familiar friend. He stepped out of the room and shut the door before looking at the direction of the hallway where the giggle and talking was coming from. What he had seen was not what he had expected. Rachelle and Ted were walking together down the hallway. Ted had his arm around Rachelle's shoulder as Rachelle looked at Ted. She was taking in the story that he was telling her. He wanted to talk to him but he didn't want to freak Rachelle out.

He saw her look at him before she looked at Ted. Ted had leaned in to whisper something to her ear. They walked closer to Randy and Ted offered him a smile. Rachelle just shrugged before leaning closer to Ted. Randy guessed it was because she wanted protection from him. He was just about to say goodbye when he noticed something wrong with this image. Samantha was standing at a close distance behind Ted and Rachelle and she was holding a gun up. Randy looked at her and was waiting to see what she was going to do. He had to stop her.

"Samantha, don't do it!" Randy said as Rachelle and Ted turned to look behind them.

Samantha shot Randy a look before saying, "Don't try and stop me. She's not worth saving anymore. I'll end her life now so that it'll be you and me for the rest of our lives. It'll be as if she never even came into the picture. You'll have me back."

"Samantha, I'm begging you! Please don't do this. She's pregnant with my child. Can't we just work something out?" Randy asked.

"No! She's caused way too many problems for me and I don't wanna have to deal with her anymore. Don't wanna have to deal with her coming between us. So say goodbye to her, your child, and your best friend!" Samantha said with a sickening laugh as she pulled the trigger.

Gun shot!

A/N: So I'm feeling generous. Here's a little sneak peak to the final chapter of Ride For You!

2 years later…

It was a beautiful warm day in St. Louis, Missouri. Randy stood looking down at the gravestone in front of him. For the past two years, he would always visit the same gravestone and talk to it. It was just something that helped to relieve the feelings that he kept bottled up inside.

"You know things didn't have to end up the way it did for us. We could have been together…." Randy began to say as the tears started to surround his eyes…
