Disclaimer: I don't own any wrestlers or their spouses. I also don't
own the name Screech. That is a character from Saved By The Bell. I only
own Heather and Brad.
A/N: This is the final chapter of this story. It's been an interesting experience writing this but I feel that this is a good place to end it. I may do a sequel somewhere in the future. I've got an idea for a Brock Lesnar story that I'm working on so that will be done first. I hope to have most of it written before I go back to school this fall. Also 'Why' will probably be finished in the next few weeks or so. Thanks to those who have reviewed this.
The Final Blow
Chapter 9
"Brad how many times do I have to tell you that I'm not your wife before it finally gets through that thick skull of yours'." I yelled at him, anger flowing through my body. "Oh I understand sweetheart, you may think your not my wife, but this little piece of paper says differently." Brad replied, with a sinister smile. "What in the hell are you talking about?" "According to this paper you and I were married last year." Brad answered, waving a marriage license around. "So you're coming with me, but first..." He said, as he threw me on my bed. "Brad, get the hell off of me!" I screamed, as I started fighting him. I had now started getting my life put back together and I wasn't going to let this bastard ruin it again. "Listen here bitch. You are going to do exactly as I say." Brad said, as he now held a gun to my head. I was so scared I couldn't do anything but nod. I said a silent prayer asking God for an angel of some sort to save me now.
"Hey Adam. Will you go get Heather and tell her the pizzas are here." Jay asked. "Sure thing buhhddy." Adam answered with a laugh. "Okay Screech. Don't be a smartass." Jay shot back, as Adam went upstairs.
"Brad please stop." I cried, as his fist connected with my face. "I told you to shut up you little bitch." He said, as he ripped my shirt off. Just then I heard Adam coming towards my room. "Heather come on, the pizzas are here." He said, as he started opening my door. When he saw Brad on top of me he exploded. "You sorry son of a bitch, get the fuck off of her." He yelled, making his was towards us. I saw this as my chance to get away from Brad so while Adam distracted him, I grabbed the gun and pulled the trigger.
*Outside*
"I wonder what's taking Adam and Heather so long?" Denise asked. "Who cares, I'm eating without them." Jay said. After he said that, the three of them heard a bang and a scream from upstairs. "Oh my God, that was Heather." Alanah said, as they all rushed in.
*My Room*
BANG! You know how you see in movies or on TV when someone gets shot or stabbed it all looks like it's happening in slow motion, well that's what happened here. I swear to God that it happened so slow. My mind was racing a mile a minute trying to figure out what to do, the only thing I could do was scream.
Finally after what seemed like forever, Jay, Denise, and Alanah all run into my room. "Angel, what happened?" Jay asked, hugging me to him. "Brad was in here when we came home. I tried to make him leave Jase, then he kept saying I was his wife and he was going to take me home. I told him I wasn't his wife then he showed me the marriage license, Jay he drugged me and then married me. Then he threw me on my bed, pulled this gun out and tried to rape me. The Addy came in and I saw my chance to get away from him so I grabbed the gun as Adam pulled him off me and I shot him." I said, crying hysterically. "It's okay Angel. He's never going to hurt you again." Jay said, looking over at Adam, to see him shaking his head, everyone knowing that Brad was finally gone from their lives.
*2 hours later*
After the police had asked all their questions, they determined that I had shot Brad in self defense. They did tell Jay, Denise, and I that we couldn't stay here for a couple of nights, cause it was after all a crime scene. Adam and Alanah offered to let us stay at their house for a few nights.
"Angel. Are you okay?" Jay asked, as we were walking to the car. "You know something Jay, for the first time in a while I feel okay. I mean Brad can't hurt me anymore and I get to spend more time with my family. Which is something I want to talk to you about." I finished, looking Jay right in the eye. "What is it Heather?" "I'm going to go back home for awhile. I haven't seen mom and dad lately so I figured now I can finally go home." I finished, as we stopped walking. "Are you going to come back here?" Jay asked. "I don't really know. Part of me wants too, but there's a part of me that has to stay there and face the past. I mean Toronto is my home, I'm not going to let Brads' ghost keep me from my friends and family." I answered, as we both got in the car. "Well Angel, I want you to do what will make you happy. Even though I'm going to miss having you here with me, this is something you have to do." He said, kissing the side of my head. "I'm going to miss you too Jay." I told him, as we pulled out of the driveway.
*1 year later*
My life is finally going the way I want it to. I still get a little nervous around guys I don't know, but everyone says that's normal. I did tell my parents everything that happened between Brad and I, although Jay and I agreed that they shouldn't know that I killed him that night.
Tonight is Wrestlemania XX in New York City. I haven't seen my brother or Adam since that night over a year ago. We have talked on the phone but the only way I've seen them is on the TV. I'm so happy that Adam finally got to return to the ring. The times I've talked to him on the phone, I could tell he was missing it. Neither one knows that I'm going to be here tonight. I told Jay when he asked if I could make it, that I wouldn't be able to get off work, Denise is the only one who knows I'm here.
"You know Denise, you and my sister have been there for every important match in my career. Even when she couldn't make it, Heather would at least call me." Jay said, in an almost whiny voice. "I know honey, but she's probably busy or something." Denise replied, having seen me walk in. "Yeah honey. I'm probably just busy." I said, standing in the doorway. When Jay heard my voice, I've never seen someone turn around so fast. "Angel, you're here. You said you couldn't make it." Jay said, picking me up in a huge hug. "I know, I lied. You don't think I'd be able to sit at home and watch my big brother go for the World Title do you?" I asked, as he set me down again. "I didn't know what to think. Why didn't you just tell me you were coming?" He asked. "The look on your face was priceless. It was more fun to surprise you." I told him honestly. "Now, if you'll just tell me where Adams' locker room is, I'll go shock the hell out of him and let you get back to preparing for your match." "He's down the hall, fourth door on the right." Jay told me. "Okay. Thanks for keeping my secret Denise." I said, giving my brother a quick hug before I left. "You knew she was coming tonight?" Jay asked his wife. "Yes I did. She asked me not to tell so I didn't." Denise said with a guilty smile.
'Fourth door on the right, or did he say left? No, he said right.' I said to myself, looking for Adams' locker room. I finally find it and knock on the door. "It's open." I hear him mumble. "Do you let just anyone into your locker room? What would Alanah think?" I said, causing Adam to jump before turning around. "Hey babygirl. What are you doing here?" Adam asked, giving me a hug. "Well it is Wrestlemania, your big comeback match, and Jay is going for the World Title. Why wouldn't I be here?" "Well it's good to see you." He said, cleaning a chair off for me. "So what's going on with you?" Adam asked, once we got comfortable. "Well I was going down to Cameron to visit Jeff and maybe come back down to Florida." I said, propping my feet up on the chair across from me. "I'll get to the Florida thing in a minute. I want to know what's going on between you and Jeff?" Adam asked. When I have talked to Adam since I've left I've kept him updated on my "relationship" with Jeff. He's been up to Canada since I've been home a few times to see me, and when I'm ready we're going to try having a real relationship. "We're still talking right now. Nothing more, nothing less." I told him honestly. "Fair enough. Now about Florida, is this going to be a permanent thing or are you just visiting?" Adam asked. Well that depends." "On what?" Adam asked, curiously. "If Jay and Denise will let me stay there till I can find an apartment." I said, knowing I could since I already talked to Denise. "They'll let you, you know that." "I know. Just don't tell Jay, it's kind of another surprise." I said seriously. "My lips are sealed." "Okay then. Well I'm going to find Denise so we can get to our seats." I said, standing up to give Adam a hug. "Good luck tonight. It's to bad that Alanah couldn't be here." I said, she's about ready to have a baby girl any day now. "I know, but she'll be happy to know you're moving back." Adam told me as I was leaving.
Finally it is time for Wrestlemania to begin. We get through all the opening matches and get to Adams' match. Denise and I are ready to cheer for him. When the opening of Rob Zombie's "Never Gonna Stop" started I thought the roof was going to come of Madison Square Garden, the same way it almost did when HHH returned 2 years ago. Adam got in the ring and posed for the fans. He finally got the match started after shaking hands with Kurt Angle. After almost 15 minutes of action, Adam finally picked up the victory, after the match Kurt hugged him and raised his hand in the air. Denise and I were both crying when we saw the reaction Adam had of winning his first match back in over a year.
"Jays' match is next. I wonder how nervous he is?" I asked Denise. "He didn't seem to be nervous earlier." She answered as Jays' music started. "Coming down the aisle is the challenger from Toronto, Canada weighing in at 235lbs. Christian." When Jay walked by us, he pointed and winked in our direction. "His opponent, from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada weighing in at 240lbs. he is the World Champion, Chris Jericho." I swear I have never heard so many people boo in my life. The match got started with Jay hitting Jericho with a flying forearm. I couldn't tell who was more nervous, me or Denise. For nearly 20 mins. Jay and Chris showed some of the best athleticism I've ever seen in a wrestling match. Jay finally landed the unprettier on Chris and the ref started counting 1...2...3. The arena was once again on their feet as they crowned my brother the new World Heavyweight Champion. After celebrating in the ring, Jay came over to Denise and I and hugged us both.
When we finally got to the back, everyone was celebrating. It almost seemed as though everyone had a different reason to celebrate. The McMahons' having put on the 20th successful Wrestlemania, Adam having returned from neck surgery and a baby on the way, Jay achieving a dream he's had since we were little and myself, well I have my life back and I also know that a brothers' love will last through the test of time.
A/N: Once again thanks to those of you who have read this story. It was sometimes fun to write. This last chapter was hard for me to write at the beginning. Hope everyone has a safe summer.
