Ivy stood frozen at the doorway. How could they just show up at her apartment?
"Are you going to let me in?"
"Why should I?" She asked.
"Ivy please," Ivy rolled her eyes and let them enter the apartment. She shut the door and walked into the kitchen.
"What the hell do you want Colonel?" Ivy asked, staring angrily at her father.
"It's Christmas Ivy," He said.
"Since when do you care about Christmas?" She asked, crossing her arms over her chest. "You gave up that claim twenty two years ago."
"Ivy please just let me explain," the Colonel began, but Ivy cut him off.
"No," She said, shaking her head. "You have no right to come to my home after what you did."
"I was doing what's best for you," He said.
"No you were doing what's best for you!" Ivy shouted. "You never gave a damn about me. It was bad enough that we lost mom, but then I had to grow up with a father who didn't care about me."
"Ivy that's not true," Her father said.
"Yes it is!" Ivy shouted. "If you cared at all, you would have let Danny and I call you Dad! But instead it was always "Colonel this" and "Colonel that". I never felt like I could talk to you about anything!"
"I was there for you and your brother if you needed me," Colonel Sharp said.
"Stop lying!" Ivy screamed. "You love the Army more than your own kids! You only ever did things for us because you wanted to make sure we didn't embarrass you."
"I just want you to be happy," He said quietly.
"I am happy!" Ivy said, throwing her hands in the air. It was then that her father spotted the ring on her finger.
"You're getting married?" He asked quietly. "To him?"
"He has a name!" Ivy shouted. "And yes, I am. Because I love Ted and he loves me." Her father went to speak, but Ivy stopped him. "Just get out." Colonel Sharp stood there not moving. Ivy shook her head as she felt her eyes start to tear up. She ran from the kitchen to the bedroom, slamming the door in the process. April quickly chased after her, followed by Ted. Cody and Brett exchanged a look before following after them. Danny stared at his father, a dark look on his face. He stormed over to him.
"How dare you?" Danny asked quietly. "How dare you show up and ruin everything? Ivy worked so hard to make sure everything was perfect for today. Why can't you just stay out of our lives?"
"I'm your father!" Colonel Sharp shouted.
"No, you're not!" Danny shouted back. "You're just the bastard who neglected two children after his wife died."
"How dare you say that," Colonel Sharp began. "I didn't neglect you, I was grieving."
"We all were!" Danny shouted. "How do you think Ivy felt? She was five years old when mom died. And the parent that she had left couldn't show her any love. Did you know that every night for almost a year, Ivy would come into my room crying because she missed mom? She couldn't go to you because you would just yell at her!" Colonel Sharp stared at Danny dumbfounded. "I am just so thankful that Ivy and I are nothing like you." Then Danny stormed out of the kitchen and into Ivy's room. Amy looked over at her husband, shock and pain etched on her face. Ted Sr. walked over to Colonel Sharp.
"We haven't been formally introduced," He said. "I'm Ted DiBiase Sr. and my son is marrying your daughter." Colonel Sharp just stared at him, not sure what to say. "Your daughter's been there for my son during a lot of hard times. I understand that you don't want them to get married because Ted's been married before. I had that same problem when I wanted to marry Amy. But I can promise you that Ted loves Ivy more than anything in this world. I haven't seen him this happy in a while. You can disapprove of it all you want, but those two are going to get married no matter what because they love each other. And if you can't accept that, then maybe you need to re-evaluate yourself." Then Ted Sr. walked back over to his wife, who had moved to the couch. Colonel Sharp stared at his feet, silent. Then he left.
By the time April and Ted had gotten to the room. Ivy had already collapsed onto her bed in tears. Ted quickly went over to her and wrapped his arms around her. Ivy buried her face in Ted's chest. Cody and Brett entered the room quietly. Everyone stayed silent until Danny stormed into the room and shut the door.
"I'm sorry Ivy," Danny said. Ivy lifted her head up.
"It's not your fault," Ivy said. "That's just how the Colonel is."
"I wanted to punch him so badly," Danny said. Ivy nodded as Danny clenched his fists. They all fell silent. This time, Brett broke the silence.
"Hey Ivy," Ivy looked up at Brett. He was holding up a scrapbook. "What's this?" Ivy chuckled as she walked over and took the book from him.
"I like to make scrapbooks," Ivy said sitting back down next to Ted. "This one is my FCW scrapbook."
"Oooooh," April said, sitting down on the other side of Ivy. Brett, Cody, and Danny all moved closer to look at the pictures.
"The Original Queen?" Brett asked, looking at a caption of a picture of Ivy.
"I was the first Queen of FCW," Ivy boasted. "So yes, I'm the Original Queen."
"Oh it's us!" April said happily. Ivy smiled at the picture. She and April were in the ring posing together.
"This is my favorite picture," Ivy said, pointing to one of her and Ted. The caption read "This is what true friendship looks like" with Ted and Ivy both making goofy faces. Ted chuckled as he looked at it.
"Those were some good times," Ted said. There was a knock at the door and Amy poked her head in the room.
"Just wanted to make sure you all were okay," She said. Even though she said all, Amy was mostly asking the question to Ivy.
"Yeah we're good," Ivy said. "Is he still here?"
"No he left," Amy said. Ivy nodded as she stood up. She placed the scrapbook down on the bed and headed out of the room. Everyone followed suit knowing now that everything was okay.
Hope you enjoyed this chapter! Don't forget to review.
