Guns and Roses
Chapter: 26
Shawn was controlling the airplane while Chris Jericho and Edge were sitting down on a seat.
" Shawn, you are getting better at this," Edge said.
" What do you mean?" Shawn asked sounding confused.
" Um, controlling the airplane..."
" Oh," Shawn said," thanks."
There was a long silence but Shawn decided to break it. " I just don't know how to land or stop," Shawn said.
" Those are the two most important things to know when you are controlling an airplane!" Chris Jericho said in a loud voice.
" No, I thought it was starting it," Edge said.
" Well, unfortunately Shawn got that in a second," Chris Jericho said.
" Um, all you had to do was press the red button..."
" Exactly!" Chris Jericho screamed.
" Can you at least wipe that bird off our window?" Edge asked.
Shawn said," I'll try." Shawn looked at all of the buttons. " You know, they should label these buttons!" Shawn complained.
" Well, they don't label them so no one stupid enough like us can control it!" Chris Jericho said.
" That's not true," Edge said.
" Oh, so what's true?'' Chris Jericho asked.
" Um, I don't know but I know that it is not true," Edge replied.
" Uh oh ," Shawn said.
" What?" Edge and Chris Jericho asked in unison.
" There's another airplane coming our way!" Shawn screamed.
Chris Jericho ran to the front of the airplane and looked out the window. " No, no, no, no, no!" Chris Jericho screamed.
Edge came to the front and opened the side window. He peeked his head out and started waving his hands in the air. " Watch out! Student driver over here!" Edge screamed.
" They won't be able to hear you," Chris Jericho said in a worried voice.
Shawn said," Well, they should at least move out of the way right? I mean, I can't be moving out of the way when I was here first!"
" Shawn," Chris Jericho said.
" Yeah?"
" Be quiet," Chris Jericho said.
" Okay."
The airplane came closer and Shawn stared at the airplane. " No, stop airplane stop!"
" Shawn," Edge said.
" Yes?"
" A magic trick won't work," Edge said.
" I know! I'm just praying right now," Shawn said.
" You know what? Shawn is going the right way with this. We should all pray right now," Chris Jericho said.
Edge, Shawn and Chris Jericho folded their hands together. " Dear Lord, please don't let us die right now. We are too young to die," Edge began but then Chris and Shawn continually stared at him.
" Um, young?" Chris asked.
" Shut up. You're just jealous because I have perfect hair!" Edge said.
" Um, yeah.."
" Ahhhh!" Shawn screamed and tilted the remote left to avoid a crash with the other airplane. The whole airplane was quiet. All you could hear was the heating system. Then Chris Jericho finally began to breathe again.
" We almost crashed," Chris said.
Shawn just had his eyes wide open, continually staring at the window not even bothering to control the airplane.
" You did it Shawn," Edge said.
" What did I do?'' Shawn asked, always sounding clueless.
" You saved our lives," Chris Jerico and Edge said.
Then Shawn got up and had an angry expression on his face. " What happened to you?" Edge asked while backing away.
" You two aren't my friends," Shawn said," You, Chris Jericho, shot John Cena and work for Brock. And you, Edge, tried to lock up my best friend, Hunter, in the trunk."
" Uh, chill!" Edge said, continuing to back away," that was the past. Just... think of the present right now. Have we done anything wrong yet?"
" Maybe not yet but you might be planning something right now," Shawn said.
" We are not planning anything," Chris Jericho said," I swear... We swear."
Edge suddenly looked at Chris Jericho and simply nodded to Shawn.
Shawn just continually stared at them. " I heard what you two are planning to do," Shawn said.
Chris and Edge laughed and then asked," What are we planning to do?"
Shawn looked down and walked back to his seat. Then he spoke," If you think you are going to be able to kill Torrie just like how you killed Randy, think again."
Meanwhile. . .
Hunter, John, and Torrie were all sitting in the car seats and talking to eachother. John kept taking glances at Torrie and then looked away.
" I got this weird message a few days ago," Hunter said.
" What did it say?'' Torrie asked.
" Well, I actually have the letter with me," Hunter said,'' if I could just find it."
Torrie and John waited until he found the letter.
" Who is it from?'' John asked.
" Brock," Hunter said,'' it's actually for Torrie more than anyone else."
Torrie blankly stared at Hunter and said," For me?"
" Yeah," Hunter said.
Hunter opened the letter and began reading,
I truly hope you understand what is going on. Everything I am doing is for a purpose. You obviously should know what that purpose is by now. And now I will be doing something which I will maybe regret in the future. Yet, it has a good purpose. I will be able to do it and you won't be able to question me because you will be dead already. Everything will be too late. Watch and see. Everything that I say in this letter will happen but you won't be able to know because you will be dead at the time.
Brock
Torrie stared at the paper and asked," Why do you assume that he is mentioning me?"
" Just look at it carefully. He is telling you that he hopes you truly understand what is going on. Everything he is doing is done for a purpose," Hunter said.
" Why is he saying that I will be dead already? That can't be me... Maybe this is an old letter that was written to my father," Torrie said.
Hunter looked down and thought about what Torrie said. Suddenly he shook his head. " I don't think so," Hunter said.
There was a long silence.
" He wouldn't kill me anyway," Torrie said.
" You say that all the time," John said," never trust that man."
" I don't trust him... I just know for a fact," Torrie said.
" All I am saying Tor is to be careful. Now there are more risks of dying from him than before," John said.
" More risks? I thought that was the most level it could go up to. I mean, he killed Randy, my father, possibly Shawn, his friend almost killed you, and I might get killed now!" Torrie said.
John looked over to Torrie and said," Well, it doesn't matter who he wrote that letter to. We still need to be careful."
" Of course," Hunter said.
" How are we going to be careful in this world? There is no safe place here," Torrie said.
" There is never a safe place but you have to make the careful decisions," John said.
" What do you mean?" Torrie asked.
" Don't ask that silly question, Tor. You know what I mean. You just never think," John said.
" Why are you so cranky?" Torrie asked.
" I'm not cranky. I'm just telling you something because I know what you did a while ago," John said.
" What did I do?" Torrie asked.
" Brock called you and told you to come to him so that he can tell you the whole truth. You make a stupid decision and went there without even thinking what he can do. Luckilly I was outside at 11:00 at night and I saved you from him," John said.
" I'm sorry... I was wrong. I didn't think," Torrie said.
Hunter just stared at them for the whole ride, remembering the past.
John stopped near his house and parked outside. They all got off and John and Hunter let Torrie walk a few steps after them. Hunter and John were talking to eachother.
" You remember, just like a year ago when we were hanging out with Randy and we ordered pizza and Randy complained to the pizza man because he forgot his customized pizza slice?" Hunter asked.
John laughed," Oh yeah, Randy always liked his own styles of pizza. They had everything in them."
" Yeah," Hunter said," too bad he's not here.''
" Too bad who's not here?" Torrie asked.
" Randy."
" Oh," Torrie said and continued to walk.
Pretty soon they reached the door and opened it. They got in, put their jackets down, and sat down in the couch.
" Excuse us for a second, Torrie," John said while tugging on to Hunter's shirt. John pulled Hunter to the kitchen and said," I'm planning to propose to her today."
Hunter screamed," Are you serious?!"
Torrie heard the scream and asked," What's going on?"
" Nothing," they both replied.
" God, man. Can you talk without screaming?" John asked.
" Okay," Hunter said in a whisper.
" So how did you afford the ring?" Hunter asked.
" What do you mean how did I afford it?" John asked," I obviously took out saved up money in the bank and payed for it."
" Oh," Hunter said," so how are you going to propose?"
John smiled and said," I got it all ready for tonight. We are going to the restaurant and fireworks are being done just for her and then the fireworks will spell out, ' Will you marry me?' Isn't that nice?"
" Really nice," Hunter said," so am I invited?"
" No... it's just for us two at the moment. Then at our wedding you can come," John said.
Hunter laughed," Well, you two have fun."
" Thanks man," John said.
John and Hunter exited the kitchen and then John took a seat in the couch near Torrie.
" Torrie."
" Yes?''
" Would you like to come to a restaurant with me this evening?" John asked.
Torrie smiled and said," Of course."
They were about to leave the house in a few minutes. Torrie was just finishing her make-up. She had a beautiful red, silk, knee-length dress with sparkly, silver sandals. Her hair was done all curly and her make-up was natural, glowy looking. She came out of the bedroom and John looked over to her.
" You look beautiful. Did anyone tell you it was a special occasion?" John asked and then suddenly looked to Hunter. Hunter shook his head.
Torrie smiled and said," No, but you know I always like to dress nicely when I go to restaurants."
John smiled and took her hand. " Well, off we go Hunter. We'll see you later on tonight," John said.
John let Torrie go in front of him and then John looked back to Hunter. Hunter winked at John and mouthed," Good luck."
They were at the restaurant and it was a beautiful evening so they decided to stay outside.
" They are a lot of ships out there. Why is that?'' Torrie asked.
John smiled," I told them to do a little something for you."
Suddenly the ships made fireworks in the sky, above the dark blue water that shone in the night.
The fireworks spelled out," Will you marry me, Torrie?"
Torrie put her hand over her mouth and smiled. She looked over to John and leaned over the table to kiss him. She leaned back and said," Yes. Yes, I will marry you!"
She shared a kiss with him again and moved her seat closer to his. Torrie leaned her head on John's shoulder and looked at the fireworks in the starry, blue sky.
" It's beautiful John,'' Torrie said," this is my dream proposal."
Suddenly John recieved a text message from Hunter. John picked up his phone and looked at it. It said," So, how did it go?''
John smiled to himself and texted back," Perfect.''
John shoved his phone back in his pocket and looked over to Torrie.
" I wish there were more nights like this," John thought to himself.
End of Chapter. . .
Yes, John proposed. Lol, good guesses from some of you that thought of that in the last chapter. Well, hope you liked it and tell me what you thought about it. Oh, and do you think that that letter was meant for Torrie or for somebody else? Go back to what Shawn said to Chris Jericho and Edge in the plane. "If you think you are going to be able to kill Torrie just like how you killed Randy, think again." Is that a good hint? lol well, I hope you enjoyed it. Cya! Sorry the update took so long. I might not be able to make another update soon because I have big tests all week this week. Maybe sometime next week. Bye!
