Title: It's My Time
Disclaimer: I sadly do not own the WWE or its Superstars
I get up to run out of the room to check on Hunter but Mark grabs me and tells me the doctor says I have to go to the hospital because of my lungs. I tell him I am not going anywhere until I make sure the man I love is ok. Mark looks surprised I just admitted I love Hunter. I run down to the gorilla position and by this point I can hardly stand because I can't breathe and I'm holding my ribs. I look on the monitor and see them putting Hunter on a stretcher. All I keep thinking is that I have to be down there with him and I go to run down the ramp but a pair of arms grab me before I can go anywhere.
" Darlin, you can't go down there. Let the EMT's do their work and when they bring Hunter back here you can be with him." I keep trying to fight Mark but all I can do is cry. As I see them roll Hunter backstage on the stretcher I completely lose it. I start screaming for Mark to let me go. " Mark I need to be with him, please let me go." I start to sob and if Mark hadn't been holding on to me I would of fallen to the ground. They load Hunter into the ambulance and because they needed room to check him over I couldn't go with him. Mark gets permission from Vince to drive me to the hospital and Vince makes me promise to get checked out while I am there. As we drive in the car I keep crying. Mark reaches over and grabs my hand. " Baby, Hunter is going to be ok, he's one tough son of a bitch. But you have to calm down because you're making yourself worse." I wrench my hand away from Mark. " You don't understand Mark, I never got to say I love you back to him. What if he.what if..?" I can't even bring myself to finish the sentence.
We pull up to the hospital and I jump out and run into the emergency room. I go over to the nurse's station. " Hello, a few minutes ago a wrestler was brought into here. I need to know what room he is in and what his condition is." The nurses proceeds to tell me unless I am family she can't release that kind of information. I scream at her I am his fucking girlfriend she better tell me where he is. Mark comes up behind me and apologizes to the woman then carries me off to the waiting room. He drops me in a chair and tells me not to move. He comes back a minute later with a clipboard and fills most of it out for me. He tells me we are going to have to wait till Vince gets here to be able to see Hunter. We all know Vince has stroke. Then he informs me in the meantime I am going to get checked out. A few minutes later a nurse comes to escort me into a room. The doctor makes Mark leave while he checks me out. I get sent for some x-rays then I am informed of my condition. I have bruises ribs, a partially collapsed lung, bruised shoulder and a concussion. The doctor tells me they want me to stay overnight and I tell him I will only stay if I can be with my boyfriend. But before he can answer me Mark sticks his head into the room to tell me Vince has arrived.
I jump off the bed and go out into the waiting room. I run over to Vince and beg for him to find out about Hunter for me. Stephanie comes over and guides me over to a chair. I just sit there with my head on her shoulder and she strokes my hair trying to calm me. Little by little more of the wrestlers come join us to see how Hunter is. A little while later Vince comes over to get me. " Jess honey, the doctor is going to update us on Hunter's condition ok?" I ask Stephanie to come with us. The doctor takes us into his office and tells us to sit down. " I am sure all of you are very worried about Hunter's health. He was very fortunate considering the fall he had taken. He has a severe concussion, dislocated shoulder that we have fixed, three broken ribs and a lot of bruising. Our main concern was internal bleeding but all tests show there is none. Right now we have him on pain medication. Mr. McMahon I know you were asking if he would be able to appear on your show tomorrow night but I would say he has to take it easy for the next two weeks or so. Depending on how he feels tomorrow we may release him but he will need to be on bed rest for a while so his ribs can heal properly. Other than that I think there is no reason why he shouldn't make a full recovery."
I start to cry again because I am so happy. He is going to be ok. The doctor says he knows I would like to go see him so he takes me to Hunter's room. I turn and ask Stephanie and Vince if they will please go tell everyone Hunter is going to be ok and that they should all go back to the hotel. There is no reason for them to be here. As I walk into Hunter's room the tears start to fall again as I see him just lying there. I pull a chair up to his bed and grab his hand. Before the doctor leaves he tells me he expects Hunter to wake up every so often. I nod my head at him but my eyes never leave Hunter's face. I put my head down on his hand and cry myself to sleep.
I wake up to someone touching my hair I jump up and look at Hunter. He's awake but still looks a little groggy. " What happened?" I somehow manage not to start crying again when I hear his voice. " Well you fell through the cage." I then inform him of his injuries. I tell him that he has to be on bed rest for a while. He then asks me if I'm ok. I down play how much pain I'm in but at least I know he watched my match. " Why are you here Jessica?" I just stare at him in shock. " Where else would I be Hunter?" He turns his head to look out the window. " I thought you would be celebrating you're win with your friends." When he hears the sob come out of me he looks back at me. " What do you mean you thought I would be out celebrating? I had to watch the man I love fall through a damn cage and I didn't know if he was going to be ok and you have the fucking balls to ask me why am I here? As far as I am concerned the only place I need to be is here but if you want me to leave then I will." Before I can go anywhere he reaches out and grabs a hold of my hand. " Say it again." I look back at him like he is crazy. Then I realize what I said. " Oh you mean the part about me being in love with you, I think I'm over it now." I smile at him and he smirks back at me.
" I'm lying in a hospital bed in pain and you tease me, really nice bedside manner you have there Jessica." I then remind him about how he treated me when I was in the hospital last time. He asks me to lean closer to him and rubs his thumb across my lips. " Tell me what I want to hear." I can tell he means no games this time. " I love you Hunter, I love you so damn much its scary and exciting at the same time." He closes his eyes for a second and I start to think he fell back asleep but when he opens them again I see the tears in his eyes. " Baby I love you too. I've been trying to tell you for a while now but I always got scared. I kept thinking what if she rejects me? What if she tells me she likes me a lot but doesn't love me? I don't think I could of handled hearing you say you didn't love me. But tonight when you went out there for your match I couldn't let you leave without me telling you. Then when you didn't say it back I thought I had my answer and it just about killed me."
I start to cry again and grab his hand tighter. " You never gave me a chance to say it back. I was in total shock and right before I walked out I turned back to tell you but you were gone. Then I figured I would just tell you when my match was over but I kind of passed out before I got a chance to see you. When I woke up you were already wrestling so there was never enough time but there is now and I'm going to keep saying it. I love you, I love you, I love you." Hunter pulls me up to him and kisses me. I hear him mumble he loves me too against my lips.
He pulls back and looks at me. " Wait a minute what do you mean you passed out? What the hell happened?" I guess I wasn't going to get away with what I had told him about me just having some bruises. I tell him everything that happened. " I'm so sorry baby I wasn't there when you came backstage. I was in my dressing room upset that you didn't tell me you loved me but I did watch your match and you kicked some major ass but if you ever do half that shit again I am going to have to take you across my knee again." I tell him to shut up and get some rest. I go to sit back in my chair but Hunter won't have it. He moves over in his bed and I see him grimace in pain. " I want you to sleep with me. I need to feel you beside me while I sleep." How can a girl refuse a request like that? I slowly climb into the bed with him and I try to find a comfortable position to sleep in but it's hard with my ribs. I look up at Hunter and realize he is already out; finally I drift off to sleep too.
The next morning the doctor wakes us up and tells me I have to go get checked out and while I am gone he will check over Hunter. I kiss Hunter and walk out the door. Oh my god I am so sore. I hurt in places I never knew I could. The doctor tells me I just have to take it easy for the next week but no wrestling this week because of my concussion and lung. I walk back to Hunter's room and see it already filled with our friends. " Stratus you better get your hands off my man before I have to hurt you." Trish jumps sky high and I start to laugh. I walk over and sit back down on Hunter's bed. " So what did the doctor tell you?" Hunter looks like he is thinking it over. " Well he told me no wrestling for two weeks and that my girlfriend has to answer to my every whim. It's very important to the recovery process." Everyone starts to laugh at him. " Well you know what the doctor told me before I walked back in here. He told me that you couldn't engage in any bedroom activity for two weeks also." He starts to frown and I bend down to kiss him.
Glenn, Steve, Chris, Adam, Jay, Trish and Lita tell me they have to head back to the arena for the show tonight so I tell him I will meet up with them there later. Mark hangs around with us for a little while longer then Vince and Stephanie show up. Vince asks me if I feel up to just addressing the fans about last night's match and I tell him no problem. Then I ask how Alexia is. Vince tells me when I pulled her down the later she cracked her jaw, she has a concussion, broken ribs and a black eye. I try to look like I feel sorry but I just can't do it. Vince then tells Hunter he just needs to get better because he isn't needed for Raw tonight. They are going to sell his injury for the next two weeks so he can relax. Mark, Stephanie, and Vince tell me they will see us later.
Hunter asks me to help him get up so he can go to the bathroom. He tells me The Game does not use bedpans. Once I get him into the bathroom he asks me if I will give him his bag. Mark had brought it for him this morning. While he's in there I go stare out the window. Well we've finally admitted we love each other and let me tell you it feels pretty damn good. I'm so lost in my daydream I don't hear Hunter leave the bathroom until I hear him cough to get my attention. I turn around and see him down on one knee, holding open a black box with a beautiful ring inside of it.
" I've been carrying this ring around for awhile now. I had woken up earlier then you this morning and called Mark to ask him to bring my bag. I had planned to have this whole romantic set up to ask you but I figured I might as well do it now. Besides who can say no to a poor guy in the hospital? Jessica I love you more than anything in this world will you marry me?"
Review as always.
