I sighed my eyes slowly opening, we had gotten in early this morning and I wasn't even close to ready for wake up, much less deal with my family "you up?'' Randy's voice croaked in my ear, I shook my head "No." I turned into his warm chest burying my face in it hearing his chuckle as he wrapped his arm around my waist kissing the side of my head "fuck em then." he muttered, I smiled loving his mind set but sighed "I still have to do, Vince hasn't signed yet." I groaned sitting up on the side of the bed.

I looked back smiling at the tanned tattooed god in my bed "you can stay back here and rest if you want to." he shook his head "No I'll go with, I'll be happy for you once his signs and your fucking free of this shit." he muttered sitting up.

I bit my bottom lip nodding "you and me both babe." I stood up walking to my closet looking for McMahon appropriate breakfast attire, I felt hands on my hips and lips to my shoulder, I sighed leaning back "I just hate this, I want to go breakfast with my family because I want to, not because I feel obligated for the negation of being a normal young adult with freedom." randy wrapped his arms around me holding me to him "i know sweetheart, soon enough." I nodded grabbing a pair of black flared slacks and a plain white t-shirt and black under shirt blowing out a breath.

Turning to face Randy I tip toed to gently kiss his lips "thank you." he frowned a look of confusion on his face "for what?" smiling up at him "being here, loving me." I kissed his cheek and headed towards the bathroom to get ready.

I sighed combing my black hair out and adding lights make up, I been working with Nikki and brie more on understanding this whole being a girl thing, I laughed at Nikki's over excitement to teach someone about make up.

I blew out a breath walking out to the main area seeing Randy sitting on the couch watching ESPN ready to go, I leaned against the wall watching him, this with him felt so right, so normal, like this is where I was meant to be the entire time, I was never meant to leave.

I bit my lip coming over to sit next to him "hey I got a compromise for you." I grabbed his attention off of the TV, raising his eyebrow for me to continue I grinned "I'll move in with you-" I held up my hand as the exictmenet came over his face "after six months, I found a townhouse near the hospital I can do a short term lease with, this way im close to the hospital and can get all my hours in im going to need to catch up on, you'll be on the road anyways with summer tours and what not, this will work out perfect right after summer slam, I'll move in." he grinned nodding.

"not as quick as I'd like but its a yes.'' he leaned in kissing me his hand gripping the back of my head, I giggled pulling away "I gotta put my shoes on then im ready to go." I stood up squealing as randy swatted my butt, I shook my head slipping on my sandals hearing the TV turn off, I tossed randy the keys to my car as we headed out.

In true McMahon fashion everyone was already sitting at the table waiting "are we late?" Randy whispered in my ear as I handed Maria my keys and purse rolling my eyes "Not in normal people land, however in Vincent Kennedy McMahon land if you aren't fifth teen minutes early, your late." I muttered smiling at Maria.

Taking Randy's hand I lead him into the dining room "Hey man." Hunter was the first to speak making all eyes on us, I leaned forward hugging my mother and nodding to Vince as Randy and I took our seats.

"Randy its good to see you." my mother spoke politely

"well I hope you two don't mind, we uh started already." Vince nodded to the food, I shook my head hoping this would just go quickly "Randy, I thought you'd be home with your daughter." Vince spoke

Randy cleared his throat "uh yea Sam took her out of town this weekend, family vacation for them."

"So I asked him to tag along with me." I quickly added my eyes sharply on vinces who nodded "well its good to see you." Randy squeezed my leg leaning in "Chill turbo." he winked, I sighed sipping my coffee. I sat bike quietly eating while everyone talked, hoping any and all conversation would keep attention off of me.

"So Randy if you missed this weekend with your child for a vacation, how does that work?" Vince asked, I wanted to roll my eyes at the way he said child as if randy choose not to visit with Alana to come here with me.

"Its in our agreement, we each get a certain amount of extra time a year with her, I'll have her the week of wrestle mania."

"T hats such a busy week to have her, when will you have time to spend with her?" my mother spoke up now, I wanted to yell at them at how rude this all was, it was none of their business "We've worked my scheduled to accommodate both with my full attention, like I do every year, no worries." he winked at my mother, I bit my lip.

"Yes the girls are super excited for that week, they get to see Lana, and hang with auntie Emily." Stephanie spoke up making me grin at the the plans we had made for all the girls, I was excited the most for it.

"Well Emily I hope you know what your taking on, wrestle mania. week is a busy week, and all hands need to be on deck." I frowned at Linda's lecture, since when was she like this.

"I'm aware mom, Chris and I have already looked everything over, believe it or not I have all of this handled."

"I'm just pointing it out, and you need to focus on your internship, where are you applying? Getting everything turned in on time, its very busy time for you." she added as if the idea of me spending a week with randy and his daughter was the worse thing I could do, quick send me back off to the hospital! " I mean have you even had time to think about that yet?" I sat back nodding, here it goes "I was talking to Mrs. Shepard and her husband is willing to get you into the program and new heart." I bit my lip

"Actually I've already been accepted into a amazing pediatrics internship program that's willing to accept Chris's notes so I wont really be too far behind in the program, I'll just have to put some extra hours in which will be fine with me." I informed them, I didn't want to until after the papers were signed and Vince couldn't take this away from me.

"Oh! Really? Where at? Mrs. Shepard said all the programs were no longer accepting late applicants." My mothers voice full of surprise and shock "St. Louis childerns hospital, they have one of they top five ranked programs in the country, truly one of the best to do your internship with, I explained my situation and they spoke with Chris and I'm good to go a week after wrestle mania."

"St. Louis?" Vince asked his eyes on Randy, I nodded "yes it was one of the programs I was looking at before, well everything, and they are truly amazing, some of the best world known pediatrics sugrions and specialists come from their program."

"Mom, Dad it really is a good program, I went with her to check out the hospital and they have everything you would want her to have." Stephanie spoke up for me making our "parents'' turn their heads towards her "you knew of this and said nothing?" Vince asked her.

I frowned "it wasn't her news to tell, I figured you guys would be happy that I was proactive on this, one less thing of the Emily crazy train you guys would have to deal with." I felt randy squeeze my leg reassuringly

"Sweetie, its not that at all, and Randy please don't take offense-" I scoffed now their worried about offending? " But are you sure this isn't because of Randy? The location."

I frowned shaking my head "No honestly it has nothing to do with Randy, it honestly has to do with what I felt like was the best program for me, I also looked at Chicago, and Los angels, just felt right, Randy being there was just honestly a bonus, I wouldn't jeopardize my carrier or future for anyone." I defend myself trying to fight back the emotions in the pit of my throat.

"And where are you living? Hmm." Vince asked as if he already knew the answer "I found a beautiful two bedroom town house right across form the hospital which would work out perfectly for me, im not moving in with Randy." I snapped biting my lip, Vince throw his napkin on the table standing up "if you'll all excuse me I have work to do." I rolled my eyes "Dont worry Vince, I was leaving." I stood up shaking my head.

"Emily please don't go, Vince sit down.'' my mother cried, I shook my head "look I think the best thing for me to do right now is just leave." I sighed as Randy stood up behind me, staying quiet he walked out with me his hand on my lower back.

Maria was standing already with my coat and purse, she leaned in giving me a hug "I'm proud of you miss. Emily." she whispered in my ear, I gave hr a small smile "thanks." I whispered taking Randy's hand and walking out to my car.

"where to?" he asked, I shook my head glaring at the mansion in front of me, it reminded me of a monster house, I couldn't even remember a truly happy moment I had in this house, it was all tainted by pain and misery "any where but here." I whispered looking back at him "please just get me the hell out of here." I wiped the tears that finally escaped before sitting in the passenger seat.

Randy got in looking at me, leaning over he placed a gentle kiss on my cheek before turning on the car and pulling away from the house. I sighed leaning back closing my eyes, the days couldn't come fast enough for me.
