Chapter 27
-Mandy's POV
I didn't talk to anyone except Torrie for two day's after the incident. My sister walked around with an "I told you so" grin on her face and every time I looked at her I thought I was going to be sick. Brock tried to comfort me a little and even Kurt offered to take me out to get my mind off things but I was too upset to even think about it. I couldn't escape the situation. I had a match against Amy and I couldn't help but notice the fact that she was being unusually rough with me in the ring. I had beaten her and she apparently wasn't too happy about it. Backstage she just glared at me and retreated into a crowd of her friends when I tried to approach her and thank her for a great match. They all shot evil looks in my direction. Yeah guys, this whole thing is my fault isn't it? I'm sorry I ever got involved.
My in ring performance was getting sloppy because of my lack of sleep and Stephanie approached me and offered me some time off. I only took a weekend off and only because Torrie had it off too. We flew to Pennsylvania and stayed at my house for the weekend. It was actually quite nice spending some quality time with Torrie. Most of the time we talked about what I was feeling. She was a great listener and was always there for a shoulder to cry on.
After I had returned to work, things were getting better. Missy and I were back on speaking terms and Torrie and I jetted back to my place in Pa whenever we had a day or two off. My wrestling was back up to par and I even managed to deal with the fact that Torrie being in a story line with Adam meant that I had the occasional run in with him. Every time I saw him I wanted to die. A few times he had opened his mouth to say something to me, but nothing ever came out, not even a hello. It was good to know, however, that I was not the only one upset by what had happened. Since the fight, Adam's work was getting just as sloppy as mine had been. He couldn't focus. I had watched a few of his matches and most nights he would go for a spear and nearly miss his opponent. Had he not have been such an asshole, I almost would have felt sorry for him.
About three weeks after the incident, I had seen Adam exactly twice and I hadn't talked to him at all. I hadn't seen Danny since the night I baby sat her and I found myself missing her more than anything. I missed how cute she was and I missed how she would always have something smart to say. Matt approached me once and told me that it was a mistake for me to think I could take Adam away from his friends in the first place but followed that statement up with a proposal that I wasn't about to take. Honestly, I don't know what that guy was thinking. Like I would sleep with him. Missy had talked Torrie and I into coming down to Tampa with her for a weekend we all had off. It was nice to be back in sunny Florida. It was considerably warmer there than it had been in Pennsylvania at the time since it was nearing autumn. It was a good change.
That Saturday afternoon, we were all out back tanning by the pool when my cell phone rang.
"Hello?" I answered cheerfully hoping it was Kurt calling about everyone going out tonight. Nobody said anything at first, "Hello?" I said again. Then I heard some whimpering on the other end of the line.
"Mandy, there's trouble here," Danny cried into the phone. I sat up in my chair.
"Danny, calm down. Can you tell me what happened?" I asked, my voice full of concern. She continued to sob for a few seconds before managing to speak again.
"I'm scared Mandy. Daddy's downstairs with Matt and some other people. They won't talk to me and they keep yelling at me if I go down there. The house smells funny too. I don't know what to do," She explained, "Will you come and get me?"
"I'll be there in a few minutes sweetheart. Just give me some time to change and I'll come pick you up. Go into the living room and wait for me by the front door, okay?"
"Okay," she replied hanging up the phone. I jumped up and ran into the house. Missy and Torrie followed me wanting to know what happened.
"What happened, what's wrong?" Missy asked as I entered my room.
"Danny needs me and I need you guys to come with me," I stated as I pulled on jeans and a tee shirt over my bathing suit and headed for my car.
