Nora walked down the hallway. She was trying to fight her way through all of the
confusion that had been circulated backstage. Tonight was the night of the dreaded draft
and everyone was uncertain to where they would be going.
Nora entered the room where everyone else was gathered watching a TV screen that
showed what choices would be made. She found Glen and Mark. They were sitting in the
back. The show came on the air and everyone fell silent. Waiting for the first draft picks.
________
"I'm so glad that's over." Glen told Nora as they walked out to their rental cars.
"Me too. Isn't it great we all ended up together?" Nora said cheerfully. Nora, Glen and
Mark had all been drafted to RAW.
"Yea." Glen's only reply. He usually talked more then this. They turned a corner and had
their cars in site. When suddenly a little boys voice piped up behind Nora.
"Miss Molly?" Nora turned around and was very happy to see Shane standing behind her.
She quickly ran and picked him up in a hug. She turned to see Glen but he had taken off,
he hadn't been wearing his mask.
"Hi Shane! What are you doing here?"
"Looking for you. Who was that Miss Molly?" Nora had to think quick.
"That was just a stage hand." He nodded with understandment, when she heard Glen walk
back up. "Hey kid." Nora smiled when she saw that he had put the mask on for Shane.
"Kane!!" Shane nearly flew into Kane's arms. Nora turned to see Becky standing near
them. Her eyes were red and swollen. Nora smiled and walked towards her.
"Are you OK?" Nora asked concerned.
"I'm afraid little Shane is fading fast, we though we'd bring him back here for one last visit.
He seems to brighten up whenever we mention ya'll." Becky's voice had a bit of a southern
twang. Nora nodded her head and glanced over at Shane who was having a conversation
with Glen. Nora turned back to Becky.
"Thanks for bringing him." Becky nodded. Then Nora heard Shane squeal.
"MR. TAKER!" Nora whipped around to see Mark patting Shane on the head. Nora
couldn't help but smile. She walked back over to Shane and he gladly hugged her waist.
"Boys, I'd like to talk to Shane alone." She said in a sad tone. Glen and Mark looked at
each other and nodded. They walked over to Glen's car and sat watching Nora and Shane
from a distance.
"Whatcha want Miss Molly?" Shane asked innocently. She smiled and sat down on the
concert and he joined her.
"I just want to talk to you Shane." He smiled brightly at that.
"OK." He crinkled his nose as he began to think. "Can I ask you a question Miss Molly?"
"You sure can." She said trying to sound cheerful. "Are you dating anyone since you and
Spike broke up?" Nora was taken aback a little bit by that question. But she thought back
to something Glen told her. *Tell him, it's not like he'll tell anyone* Nora let a small smile
cross her lips. "Well Shane, I'm not dating anyone, but I guess I do kinda like someone."
Shane's little eyes lit up at that comment. "Oooo, can you tell me Miss Molly." She smiled
sweetly. "Sure his name is Mark Calaway." Shane smiled brightly then a car horn caught
their attention. Glen had been playing around and hit the horn with his elbow.
________
"I'm afraid it's time to go Shane." Becky said sadly, Mark, Nora, Glen and Shane had been
fooling around for close to an hour now. Nora and Glen said their good-byes and Mark
carried Shane back to Becky's car on his shoulders.
"Guess what Mr. Taker!"
"What's that kid?"
"I know a secret!"
"Oh really? Who is this secret about?"
"Miss Molly!" Shane announced proudly. Mark stopped and pulled Shane off his shoulder
and stared at him with a smirk on his face. "What kinda secret?"
"She's got a crush on this guy." Mark raised an amused eyebrow and turned to make sure
Nora wasn't near him. "Whose the guy?"
"His name is Mark....um Mark...Ca....Argh!" Shane was getting frustrated because he
couldn't remember the last name. Mark looked at him a little shocked. "Um, was it
Calaway?" Shane's eye's lit up and he nodded furiously. "Yea that's what she said." Becky
walked over and smiled at Shane and Mark. "It's time to go Shane." Shane turned around
and smiled at Mark. "Bye Mr. Taker." Shane said sadly. Mark smiled. "By Kid." He gave
Shane a hug, it was a quick hug, because he had to keep his big manly image in check. HE
waved goodbye to Shane then turned around with a giant smile plastered on his face. He
headed in the direction of Glen and Nora.
