Chapter 14:
Stacy's POV
The bruise was large and bluish black. It hurt as the hot water hit it. I didn't understand how he could do this to me, and why. What had I done that was so horrible? He had just gone off the other night. I saw the anger in his eyes, and it scared me. I tried to get away, but he grabbed me. His eyes were red with anger, mine were wet with fear. His voice boomed through the apartment, he reared his mighty fist back and hit me; hit me until I screamed out in pain. He hurled a few insults at me before leaving to go to a bar. He left me crying on the living room floor, powerless.
I don't know why I didn't just leave him; tell him to take a hike. I think I was scared, scared of what he could do to me, what he would do to me if I ever did leave him. That's why I hadn't told anyone. It was too embarrassing, too humiliating.
I finished showering and got dressed. "You coming Stacy?"
"No, not tonight, Amy."
Amy stared at me. "I'm beginning to think that you don't like us. You haven't come out with us forever." I didn't know what to say. I didn't want to bring up Andrew's name. But I didn't have to, Amy did. "Is this about Andrew." When I refused to answer she groaned. "Stacy, why don't you just stand up for yourself?"
"I don't know what you are talking about." I watched Amy as she grew tense.
"I think you do." I continued to watch her. "Stacy."
"Ames, do not worry about me and Andrew. We are perfectly happy." I threw my arms out to the sides as I said this. My arm banged against the wall, right where my huge bruise sat. I winced in pain.
"Stacy! Are you okay?" She reached for my arm and I pulled it back.
"I'm fine."
"Let me see." She grabbed for it again.
"Ames, I am fine," I growled angrily. But it was all in vain. Amy grabbed my arm and yanked up the sleeve. I heard her gasp.
"Stacy, did Andrew do this?"
"No," I lied. "I just ran into a door. You know how clumsy I am."
"You should tell Chris. He said you could."
"I don't want to put this on him. I'm fine Amy. I have to go." I grabbed my bags and headed out the door feeling very confused.
Chris' POV
I had just finished cutting a promo with Bischoff when Amy came running up to me. "Hey Ames, ready for the Christmas party Thursday night?"
"Yeah, but we have something really important on our hands."
I raised my eyebrow. "What do you mean?"
"It's Stacy."
My heart immediately stopped at the thought of Stacy. What she was doing with an assclown like Andrew, I'd never know. "What about her?"
Amy proceed to tell me about the locker room incident. "She practically admitted that he hit her. Chris, what are we going to do?"
"Where was she heading?"
"What?"
"Where was she heading, Amy?"
"The parking lot I think. Chris, Chris! What are you doing! Chris!" I heard Amy yelling, but I had to get to the parking lot. I had to find Stacy. I finally made it there and scanned the lot for Stacy or Andrew. I saw them across the lot; they seemed to be arguing. I watched as Andrew pushed Stacy to the ground and raise his fist in the air. I was across the lot and all over him in three seconds.
"What the!" Andrew yelled. I nailed him straight in the jaw. Andrew threw on my way and hit me in the stomach. I threw another one right to his nose. Blood splattered onto my hand. I felt two arms around my waist. It was Shane. He drug me backwards as Randy Orton got hold of Andrew. Security lead Andrew out of the lot and back inside.
"What are you doing?"
"Later, I need to check on Stacy." She was still on the ground, her eyes downcast. I kneeled down next to her. I placed my hand on her chin and tilted her face towards me. Her brown eyes were large, scared and tear stained. I saw the pain in them. "Stacy. It's okay. I don't think he'll be hurting you anymore." She sat there and stared at me in silence before leaning in and wrapping her arms around me. She pulled back and smiled slightly before standing up and grabbing her bag.
"Stace, I'll give you a ride to the hotel, okay?" Amy asked approaching. Stacy nodded and picked up her bag. I watched as she and Amy walked off across the parking lot. My heart broke for Stacy, she deserved better and I knew I could give her that. If she would let me.
Regan's POV
The WWE Christmas Party
I had never been so nervous in my life. Tonight was the night I was going to tell Jay that I loved him I had thought long and hard about what Adam had told me. He was right; I needed to take this chance. I hadn't told anyone about my plans, not even Shane. Jay hadn't been at Raw on Monday. Vince said he was out due to personal reasons. He had been at the Armageddon PPV live from LA the night before. I had attacked Trish after her victory. Apparently Vince had decided on making me some crazy heel, which was cool. I had never been one before.
I scanned the room looking for Jay, but apparently he hadn't arrived yet. Pretty much the whole roster was there. I saw Torrie standing across the room talking with Nidia, a large smile on her face. I hated Torrie, even though her and Jay were no more. There was something about her that rubbed me the wrong way. I couldn't figure out what though.
I saw John Cena from across the room talking with Randy and Charlie. He caught me staring and waved at me. I waved back as Randy turned around. He scowled at me before turning back to John. I guess I didn't blame him for hating me, but he really needed to get over it.
Stacy was sitting at our table with Trish looking around nervously probably for Andrew. She had finally broken up with him, much to everyone liking. Chris sat with Shane and Kurt Angle gazing longingly at Stacy. Chris liked Stacy that was obvious. They really were cute together. I just wished that Trish and Shane would finally own up to their feelings. But they were both incredibly stubborn so I might not want to hold my breath.
I looked back towards the front doors and caught a glimpse of Jay. My heart flip-flopped inside me. He was here. I tried to calm myself. I hoped that Jay felt the same way I did. I decided it was now or never. I wove my way through the crowd until I came up beside him. "Hi, Jay."
"Oh, hey Reg, having fun?"
"Yeah. Did you just get here?"
"Yeah, I did actually." Silence fell between us.
"Listen, I really need to tell you something, can we go outside or somewhere?"
"Actually, I need to do something right now, but I'll catch you right after okay?"
"Yeah, okay." I tried not to sound disappointed, but I had just worked up the nerve.
Jay climbed up onto the stage and grabbed the microphone. "Could I have everyone's attention please?" Everyone began to migrate towards the stage, curious. "Well. I have some really, really exciting news and I cannot think of anyone better to share it with then you wonderful co- workers of mine." I cocked my head to the side. What was he getting at? I caught Torrie walking towards the front to the crowd smiling. What was she so happy about? "I realize something the other day with the help of a friend." He waved at Trish who immediately blushed. "I realized that I, Jason Reso, am in love." My heart began to beat faster. Oh, my God! Jay was in love with me and about to tell the whole company! This was too wonderful. I hadn't noticed that Torrie had joined him on stage.
"What I'm trying to say it that, Torrie and I. We got married."
WOW! That's all. The rest of the Christmas Party will be in the next chapter. Please, please, please! Read and REVIEW! Thanks to all!
