It has been two months since the incident, the incident that turned my dreams into nightmares. The revving of the engine, the squealing of the tires, the headlights coming right at me.

I bolted up right from my bed shaking and trying to breath. I grabbed for Jeff but he was not there, and then I remembered he was on the road. I took a few deep breaths trying to calm myself down. I finally stopped shaking a few minutes later and my breathing went back to normal, so I laid back down. I grabbed my phone off the side table to check the time, it was only 5 am. I sighed but I did have a text message from Jeff waiting for me.

"Good morning beautiful, call me when you get this, love you"

Many things had changed since that night, for one my work schedule, the WWE thought it was best that I do one week on and one week off, they thought traveling and appearances would be too much full time, even though I disagreed with that since I felt like myself when I was at work.

I dialed Jeff's number, he picked up on one ring.

"Hey baby"

"Hey" I said

"How are you doing"

"Okay"

"Any nightmares" he asked with concern

"Just one, that is why you are talking to me now" I said

"I am sorry babe, I wish I was there" he said

"Its okay, I mean it is only one, so that is actually good compared to not long ago but I just wish they would just disappear" I said

"Remember what the doctor said Mel" said Jeff "in time they will"

"I know" I said "I know"

In all honesty it was getting better, in the beginning I would have five or six a night.

"I can't wait to see you tonight" he said

"Me too, what time does your flight get in" I asked

"Six" he said "Sorry babe to cut this short, but I have to get going, its media day"

"Okay, I love you" I said

"Love you too beautiful, see you tonight"

We said goodbye and hung up.


Another thing that had changed was that Jeff and I were now living together in Orlando. Before we got back together, Jeff purchased a new home not far from my old home down here. After the incident Jeff asked me to move in.

I quietly stared up at the ceiling, that wasn't the biggest change of them all, the biggest and worst change was that I lost my best friend again, I lost my best friend because she was the one that was behind the wheel that night. That is right, my best friend Alexa Bliss tried to run me over. Despite our conversation, she was upset with her suspension and that John loved me and not her.

Thanks to the surveillance cameras at the arena Alexa was charged with attempted murder and now was sitting in a jail cell.

I wiped the tear coming down my cheek, that part still really hurt, knowing my best friend or ex best friend wanted to hurt me too or down right kill me.

John was still on probation so the no contact order was still in place. Jeff told me that John was at the hospital that night while I was getting checked out since I got pulled out of the way and fell to the ground but he kept his distance from everyone and left once he heard I was fine.

My hero that night, was none other then Nick. He had come out to get something out of his car and when he saw the car come at me, he ran and grabbed me out of harms way. Since then we have talked more and have become friends again.


Several hours later…

Jeff and Finn were sitting in the airport lounge having a beer waiting till it was time to board there flight.

"How is Melanie doing?" Finn asked

"She is doing better" said Jeff

"The nightmares gone"

"No" said Jeff "but she is only having one a night, which is a big improvement from when they first started having five or six"

"That is better" Finn said

"I know" said Jeff "to the point I think they will let her come back to work full time"

"Really" said Finn

Jeff shook his head yes, "Stephanie asked me how she was and after I told her, she said she would speak to Mel next week about coming back full time"

"That is great" said Finn "Mel will be thrilled if she can come back full time"

"I know" said Jeff "and I won't have to worry about her when she is home and I am on the road"

"You realize Mel is a lot tougher and stronger then you are giving her credit for" Finn said

Jeff smiled "Yes I know, but I still worry, she has been through a lot, more then I care to remember"

"I know" said Finn patting Jeff on the shoulder.

The boys finished there beers and made there way to there gate. Jeff was excited to get home, he just wanted to see Melanie.


A few hours later Jeff pulled into the driveway, quickly grabbed his bags and went inside. Usually Melanie would be right at the door to greet him but she wasn't.

"Melanie" Jeff called her name but no answer. He peeked into the living room on his way to the kitchen but no Melanie. He walked back to the front of the house went up the stairs to there bedroom but no Melanie. He started to panic a little, her car was in the driveway and there was no note on the counter to say she was gone, she knew he was going to be home now.

He ran down the stairs and pulled his phone out of his pocket, no messages from her, There was one place he hadn't checked…the backyard. He walked back through the kitchen to the back door, he opened it and there on the lounger was Melanie sleeping.

He took a deep breath relieved that she was okay, he wanted to wake her up but he didn't want to frighten her, she had enough of that lately. So he took a seat on one of the patio chairs and waited but he didn't have to wait long, a few minutes later she woke up and immediately turned his way like she knew he was there.

"Hey stranger" she said with a smile as she sat up

"Hey beautiful" he said as he returned the smile

"How long have you been sitting there" she asked

"Not long" he said

"Are you hungry" she asked as she put her feet on the ground

"A little" he confessed

She got up "Let me go make you something" she said

He quickly got up, walked towards her and wrapped his arms around her. "I missed you" he said

"I missed you too" she said

He kissed her softly on the lips. She smiled at him as they parted. "I will go make you something to eat" she said

She went to turn to head to the door when Jeff gently grabbed her arm. 'Wait"

She quietly looked at him "Everything okay" she asked

He starred at her beautiful face.

"Jeff"

He put his hand in his pocket and pulled out a little black box, he opened it and got down on one knee

"Melanie, will you marry me"
