Hey guys! Sorry it took me almost 2 weeks to get this up and with it being as short as it is. I left it where I did for a reason. When you get there...you'll know why.

I don't own anyone affiliated with the WWE...I only own Lucy

Enjoy!


Lucy POV

I watch him dumbfounded as he continues to create more and more distance between us. I lift up my skirts and quickly follow after him to where I can grab his arm to stop his trek. My hold on Drew's arm causes him to look over at me and a hurt and defeated look graces his handsome features.

"When you guys were younger…what, Drew? Talk to me. I'm not going to think of you differently, if that is what you're worried about. I thought I already made that clear earlier," I tell Drew and tug on his hand, forcing him to face me.

Drew sighs and removes his arm from my grasp so he can rest both hands on my waist to pull me closer, "when we were younger, Randy was a ladies man. All of the girls…women flocked to him. I was always jealous of him; I became insecure very easily whenever someone would show interest in me and then have Randy come along. They would quickly jump ship and put their attention on him and act as if I never existed. Although, he never did act upon any of their affections because he refused to betray me in that way. So when you came into my life and I saw how comfortable you were…are around him, I let my jealously get the better of me because I feared that the same thing would have happened with you," he confesses and I look up at him in disbelief.

I wrap my arms securely around Drew's waist, allowing my grip to be as tight as I can without causing more pain to my abdomen, "Drew, honey. No," I say, shaking my head, "I can tell you right now, that's never going to happen, okay? I only see Randy as a friend, hell even a big brother, but I will never and I mean never view him as anything else. I want to be with you, baby and no one else." My calling him baby for the first time, seems to have struck something within him because when I was explaining myself, he refused to look into my eyes, he would look wherever else, although, mine never left his. But the second that one word leaves past my lips, his eyes shoot straight up to mine.

"You…you really mean that?" Drew asks hesitantly. Anxiety shining through his ocean blue orbs.

"I really do," I reply quietly with a smile and reach a hand up to cup the side of his face, caressing the skin of his cheek. Drew nuzzles his face into my palm and grabs it to press a kiss there.

"Say it again, please," Drew requests quietly, his eyes penetrating into mine.

I smile and lean up onto my tip toes so I can press a kiss to Drew's lips, leaving only a small amount of space between our faces, "I want to be with you and only you, baby. No one else," I reply just as quietly.

Drew POV

"You haven't a clue as to how happy you make me, Lucy," I whisper to her, cradling her face with one of my hands before pressing another soft kiss to her lips. "I don't care if I've only known you for 3 days. No one has ever made me feel this way; not even Jenny," I confess to Lucy and it rips a gasp from her.

Lucy pulls back a little bit and looks up at me with troubled eyes, "you can't mean that. She was your wife," she tries to argue, but I shake my head at her assumption.

"Yes, she was my wife, but Jenny came from a family of royalty as well. We didn't marry for love. At least not right away. Falling in love with each other took time…a lot of time. We argued often in the beginning. We were forced into marriage because my father was ill. He needed someone to take the throne before he passed. With me being an only child, well, I had to grow up and fast. That is the only reason Jenny and I married. The rest came with time," I explain to Lucy and I can still see a look of shock in her features to my confession.

"So why me? What makes me so different? When we met, I wanted nothing to do with you; I was terrified of you. How could you have known this is where we'd be in 3 days time?" Lucy questions and I can still see in her eyes that she doesn't want to believe me, however, I somehow know she does.

"Call it intuition. I've always been good at reading people, it's why I always became jealous and wary when I let someone close to me, but somehow I knew you were different. Not even because you feared me in the beginning, but because I could see in your eyes that you were just as broken and insecure as I was. I think that's where I knew you were the one for me…you were it. No matter how long it took for you to become comfortable with me, to trust me…anything…I knew that we would be able to fix each other because we were so alike in that aspect. That's why I don't care if you don't come from royalty. That means nothing to me, when I know you're the one I want to spend the rest of my life with, Lucy," I tell her, pouring my heart out to her, becoming more passionate as I went. Wearing my heart on my sleeve, hoping that she doesn't crush it in her tiny hands because she has the power to do just that and I know it's something that I never would be able to recover from if she did.

Lucy goes to open her mouth to respond and I can see in her eyes that she wants to protest, but I refuse to let her because I know what I said is true. Call me a love sick fool, but I know fate brought us together. I silence her protest with a kiss that I make sure takes her breath away.

Lucy whimpers into my kiss as I pull her flush against me. Upon feeling her tightly grip the back of my tunic, I deepen the kiss, allowing myself to consume all of Lucy's senses. I pull back to look down at Lucy and her eyes are still closed, but her lips are red from our kiss and parted as she tries to catch her breath. Slowly, she opens her beautiful eyes to peer up at me and a dazed look can be found in them.

"Welcome back, beautiful," I say quietly with a smile, but what I don't expect Lucy to do is grab the back of my head and pull me in for another kiss.

Moments later, Lucy slowly breaks the kiss and looks up at me, her eyes now filled with what looks like lust, but I know it's just my imagination messing with me. "You really meant what you just said?" She asks me, her voice slightly raspy from the kiss.

I reach up and stroke the apple of her cheek with my thumb before responding, "every last word, love. I've never been more sure about anything in my life. I want to be with you, if you'll have me, Lucy," I tell her quietly, letting my eyes convey how I feel.

Lucy takes a deep breath, "I do, but I can't…not yet. As much as I want to be with you, I'm not ready, Drew. I can't do that to you because you don't deserve it," she tells me and I look down at her with hurt confusion. Lucy sees the emotion in my eyes and frames my face with both of her tiny hands as I continue to look down at her.

"I don't want to hurt you because I tell you one thing and then do the complete opposite. I want to be sure of myself before I do anything. Especially when your heart is a factor in all of this," she says and takes one of her hands, placing it over my heart. "I don't trust myself, not to hurt you; it's the last thing I want to do, so please…be patient with me because I do want to be with you, too, Drew," Lucy whispers.

I nod my head in understanding and lightly grab Lucy's wrist that rests on my chest, holding it in place and frame her jaw with my free hand, "like I told you, I'll wait for you, Lucy. However long it takes," I reply and rest my forehead on hers, breathing her in.

"Thank you," Lucy replies quietly and smiles up at me.

"You're welcome. I'd do anything for you, baby," I say, giving her a soft kiss.

Suddenly, one of the soldiers come barreling around the corner, finding mine and Lucy's hiding spot, breaking our moment. "My King," Ziggler pants, out of breath.

I pull away from Lucy, putting my full attention onto Ziggler, sensing something is seriously wrong, "what is it, Dolph?" I ask urgently.

"It's…it's Orton, My King," Dolph starts and I hear Lucy gasp beside me and I look down at her, seeing she's put her full attention onto Dolph as well.

"What about Orton? What's wrong with him?" I demand, wanting an answer immediately.

"He's badly injured," Dolph begins and before he can get another word in, Lucy bolts from the area and in the direction of Randy. Dolph's eyes follow her, due to her sudden exit, but resumes his explanation, "there was an example of a new blocking technique he was showing us and he for whatever reason, was unable to block a hit and he was cut really bad in his abdomen," he finally gets out and I'm right behind Lucy when I leave Dolph standing where he is to get to my best friend.

Lucy POV

Remembering the direction Drew and I took, I quickly backtrack and run as fast as I can to Randy. Finally making it down to the training field, I see a crowd of men, huddled over and I rush in that direction, pushing whoever I have to out of the way.

When some of them don't budge, I have to forcefully move them aside, "move dammit," I ground out and after I am able to get them all out of the way, I fall to my knees at Randy's side. And there is a lot of blood. So much blood.
