Chapter 36
A few days later:
"I didn't know what to tell her." Kate told Kelly as they were eating lunch.
"That's gotta be hard."
"You should have seen the look on my daughter's face. Would you stay married if I asked. It broke my heart."
"I know Kate but you can't stay married just because Gracie doesn't want you too. That's not fair to you or Randy." Kelly said.
"I know it's not but ... I mean ..."
"Oh No Kate don't even say you are changing you mind again .. because I am just going to say that you have pregnancy brain and don't mean it." Kelly told her as their food came to the table.
"No ... Randy and I are really getting a divorce this time. Don't worry there is just too much damage to be fixed this time around. But Gracie ... that kid is breaking my heart here!" Kate said as she began to eat her Nacho's loaded with meat cheese and sour cream.
"First of all I can't believe you are gonna eat all those ... I mean that's like a double order."
"Shut up I'm pregnant and hungry and we wanted nachos." Kate laughed as she shoved a few chips in her mouth.
"To be serious for a minute ... Kate I know you love your kids but you need to be happy. Dean makes you happy ... he makes you happy in ways that Randy doesn't."
"I know that but Gracie really doesn't want us to split up and what about Kiley , Logan and the new baby?"
"Listen you and Randy have tried and tried to make this marriage work. You've put in a hell of an effort. But you always end up in bed with Ambrose and he ends up in bed with a skank."
"Way to make me sound like a slut." Kate said with a half a smile on her face as she took a sip of her soda.
"You know what I mean." Kelly told her.
"I know you're right. Randy and I just have to talk to the kids and be honest with them."
"Did he leave this morning?" Kelly asked as she reached over and took some of Kate's nachos.
"Yes he did and get your own nachos." Kate laughed. "Dean wanted to stop by this weekend but they booked him for some apperance autograph signing thing before the house show so he didn't have time. I know he's been really pissed lately because he hasn't had any time off."
"I bet he is ... he wants to see his son and well you. Are they at the same house show tonight?" Kelly asked a litte hesitant to know the answer.
"I don't think so. At leat they're not suppose to be. Stephanie is trying to keep them apart except for Raw and Smackdown of course." Kate told her best friend as they continued to eat lunch.
Later that After Noon with Randy: He arrived at the venue for the house show and took his stuff to the locker room. When he ran into Cody Rhodes.
"Not ready yet? Star Dust?" He said in a mocking Star Dust voice.
"Does it look like it?" Cody said with a laugh. "For the record worst Star Dust impression ever." He said in a Comic Book Guys voice from The Simpsons.
"You know that gimmick has lasted 4 years longer than I ever thought it would." Randy laughed.
"Me to ... to be honest. I didn't think it would last 6 months but now I'm the intercontinental Champion." Cody said.
"No you're not ... Star Dust is."
"Whatever. My favorite gimmick is still Dashing Cody Rhodes." Cody smiled.
"Because my wife likes it?" Randy laughed.
"Yeah pretty much. She hated my mustache phase ... what did she use to say about it?" Cody asked trying to remember.
"She said that it was a 70's porn mustache and you looked horrible."
"Man I miss having her around with her smart ass comments. We had so much fun remember when John picked that karaoke bar and Kate ordered us a round shots.""
*Flash Back: karaoke Bar!*
They sat down and just started talking and hanging out when one of the bartenders got on stage an announced that karaoke would be starting soon, the people in the bar cheered. Randy looked over a John.
"Dude Really? You picked a karaoke bar?" Randy questioned looking over at John sipping on his beer.
"I didn't know it was a karaoke bar I swear." John said trying to convince them they didn't know.
"I am not drunk enough yet for this." Cody said looking around the bar.
"Me either." Ted agreed.
He motioned for the waitress to bring over another round. Kate smiled and got up, the guys just watched as she walked up to the bar and then came back with a tray full of shots.
"What the hell is all this?" Randy asked looking at the tray of shot Kate sat down on the table.
"Cody's right if I have to hear any of you sing, I am not drunk enough for that." Kate said with a smile looking at the guys at the table.
"Are you can't drink all those?" John questioned.
"Oh Johnny boy these's are all for me, they are for us?" Kate said as she began to pass each guy a shot.
"What kind of shots are we talking here?" Ted asked looking at the drink in his hand.
"It's a Royal Butt. I thought it fitting since I am sitting here with WWE royalty." Kate told them with a giggle.
"Randy is she always such a smart ass." John said.
"Get use to it Cena my girls here to stay. So are we gonna do this or what. " Randy said
"What's in this Royal Butt any way?" John asked.
" 3/4 shot crown royal and 1/4 Shot Buttershots." Kate said.
Kate held up her shot glass and smiled: Here's to you bitches.
All the guys laughed they toasted before they all took the shot. A few of the regulars got up to sing first.
"I think Kate should sing I saw the sign." Ted said laughing.
Then Cody and Ted began to dance and sing some of the lyrics to make fun of Kate.
"You guys suck you know that." Kate said sticking her tongue out at them.
"For real you have to sing something." Ted said.
"Maybe." she said as she hesitated.
"Please Kit Kat for me?" Randy begged.
"Nope!" Kate laughed.
"Now that wasn't very nice." Randy said as he put his arm around Kate and pulled her close.
"No one ever said I was nice." Kate told him as she was now staring at him as he went to kiss her she moved and his lips met her cheek.
Kate couldn't help but laugh.
"Well I haven't heard through the grape-vine that you can sing, so I wanna hear ya." John said.
"Fine I'll do it... but there better be another drink waiting for me when I get back." Kate said.
"So you'll sing for Cena but not for me?" Randy said raising and eyebrow.
"I like Cena more than you Orton." Kate teased him.
She stood up kissed Randy softly on the lips and went to pick a song. She couldn't believe she was going to do this she just chose a song, without really even thinking about it. As she got on stage she looked over at the table and all of the guys were laughing, some of their co-workers, were cheering for Kate. Kate took a deep breath and began to sing "Footloose" As she sang she couldn't help but dance the footloose dance while she sang.
*End Flash Back *
"Yeah I remember it like it was yesterday." Randy said with a smile thinking back to that night.
"I hate to ask but are you two still getting the divorce?"
"She loves Ambrose Cody. I can't make her stay with me if she's not happy as much as I want her to be with me. I love her so much ... but I have to let her go."
"Sorry man ... this must be hard for all of you especially the kids."
"Yeah Gracie seems to be having the hardest time with it." Randy said.
"But you and Harley? What he hell was with that? Eden told me she saw her on the best?" Cody questioned his friend.
" I know it was stupid. But it was only a couple of times and yeah I gave her money but there was just no baggage being with her was easy. I didn't love her it was all just physical. I don't love her I've always loved Kate." Randy stated.
"But if you love Kate then why would you risk loosing it all again?"
"I do love Kate with all my heart and soul you know I do stupid shit for no reason and having sex with woman is just one of stupid things I do with out thinking. I know that's no excuse . But this time... Cody ... this time I am not the bad guy. She slept with Ambrose again and fell in love with him. Which hurts more that just casual sex." Randy said.
"So your really not going to fight for her? You are just going to let the love of your life go because she fell in love with Dean? If you love her like I know you do Randy ... fight damn it ... fight for your wife and kids." Cody told him.
"I am just tired of fighting. I am tired of fighting with Kate and with Dean."
"So you are just going to sit by and let Dean Ambrose take your wife and kids?" Cody asked him.
"I don't think I have any other choice at this point Cody. If Kate wants to leave and be with Dean then I have to let her go. Maybe we find our way back to each other maybe we don't. We have kids together and I want to be the best dad I can be. I apparently suck as a husband but a Dad ... well my kids are my life and I will always be there for them."
"Speaking of the devil." Cody said pointing over towards the locker room.
As they saw Dean walk in talking on his phone.
"He's everywhere. I bet you he's talking to my wife." Randy said.
"See Randy it does bug you doesn't it. You don't want to let her go do you?" Cody said.
"Of course I don't but if I keep pushing her to stay she would hate me."
With Kate:
"So you made it. That's good." Kate said to Dean on the phone.
"Yeah that signing took forever I mean I love my fan support it just made for a long day and tonight I am in the main event."
"Really who are you facing?"
"I don't know Roman told me something about a 6 man tag. Not sure. But how are you doing? Baby boy still moving around?"
"Yes a lot. I had lunch with Kelly today before looking at the new house and he wouldn't stop moving. He's not so active now." Kate said.
"Oh Babe I wish I was there with you. I hate leaving you alone with three kids."
"Dean it's fine. The kids are great we are actually getting ready for a movie night. I baked cookies and we are gonna have some popcorn and just chill on the couch."
"Sounds great what are you watching?" Dean asked.
"Toy Story 2."
"Really?"
"Yes it's the only one that Gracie and Logan could agree on."
After Kate and Dean were done talking she settled in the living room with the three kids as watched the movie. When the movie was over she put the kids to bed and went into her room and crawled into bed. She finally got comfortable and began to watch PS I love with. The movie wasn't even half way over as Kate laid there in tears. When the phone range.
"Hello?" Kate answered through the tears.
"Hi ... are you crying what's wrong?"
"I am watching a sad movie. I love you so much you know that right?" Kate said to the voice on the phone.
"I love you too."
"Love is like the wind, you can't see it but you can feel it." _ Nicholas Sparks, A Walk to Remember
