Trish walked into the kitchen and put her head in her hands. She took a deep breath and tried to clear her mind so she could think. What Dave had just finished confessing to her had totally blown her away. Never in her life had she imagined anything like that coming from him. To find out that he had another child that was living with his sister because he couldn't bring her on the road with him without anyone to help him out with her, that shocked her. And he had been afraid to tell her because he didn't know how she would react. That almost irritated her. But in another light, she could understand where he was coming from with that one. He knew that she was still getting used to the idea of being with a man that had kids that were almost the age of her youngest sister. Then to find out that he went to jail for a couple years for almost killing someone, all of this was so much to take in. Were there any other secrets out there that she hadn't let him get to yet? She took a deep breath. Is this the type of man she wanted to be with? She pondered everything for awhile, and then walked out to the living room.

Dave looked over at her. His heart was breaking. He knew that he should have been completely open and honest in the beginning. He never should have hid anything from her. He would go nuts if he lost her, he couldn't picture not being with her. He opened his mouth to say something, but Trish shook her head no at him.

"Is there anything else that I should know?" Trish asked him in a quivering voice. The tone was half-angry and half on the verge of crying. She was shaking a bit and biting her bottom lip, looking at him with an intense look in her eyes. She knew that she needed to stand her ground now or she never would.

Dave shook his head, "Nothing like this. I'll tell you all of the dumb stories whenever you want, but I'm not hiding anything from you anymore."

Trish nodded her head in acknowledgement, took a deep breath, and opened her arms to him. He stood up and walked to her and held her close not knowing what to say.

Trish held him close, then pulled away, "Dave, I know that you were afraid to tell me the truth, but I need you to trust me if we're going to be together. I'm going to open myself up a lot here," She said to him. "Dave I care about you a lot. You mean the world to me. You've made me feel things that I've never felt before, and that worries me. I want you to always be open and honest with me. I don't want you to ever worry about telling me the truth, no matter how hurtful. I would rather hear it from you than from someone else. What you just got done telling me is definitely enough to shock anyone, it was completely unexpected. But." Trish stopped and stepped so close to Dave that their lips were almost touching, "It won't scare me away."

Dave tried to scoop her up but because of his bad arm, realized he couldn't so he held her tight, "Oh Trish." He had tears in his eyes, "I promise you, I will never lie, I will never hide anything from you." He kissed her deeply.

Trish sat in his arms and held him back. She was overwhelmed with emotions and began to cry.

"What's on your mind darlin'?" Dave asked gently. He wasn't quite sure if he would want to hear the answer.

"It's just.I.I." Trish stammered and sniffled. "I.I don't want to scare you off, but we're both here, and we're both being honest with each other, and I feel like I should tell you, but I'm scared to tell you because I'm afraid of the consequences, but I really should just be open and honest because that is what we're doing here." Trish babbled.

Dave had to try not to laugh, she was really cute when she babbled. "Hon, this goes both ways. You can tell me anything, and I want you to feel comfortable being open with me." Dave reassured her, "I promise."

"Well, I'm a little freaked out right now," Trish started. Dave shook his head figuring that she was scared of his temper. "But it's only because I'm falling in love with you and I'm scared that you don't feel the same way, or that you won't feel the same way. And I'm afraid that you'll think that it's too soon for me to be thinking like this and I'll scare you off thinking that I'm some woman who has to hurry up and get married. And I don't want you to get the wrong idea about me," Trish babbled. She just kept going on and on while Dave was standing there shocked, he kept trying to interrupt her gently.

"Trish, Trish, honey, listen," Dave tried and tried to no avail. Now she was crying harder and apologizing for opening her big mouth, "TRISH," Dave finally had to say loudly.

He had made her jump. She had her hand on the doorknob and she slowly turned around and looked at him. She had tears falling down her cheeks, quietly she responded, "Yeah?"

Dave walked over to her and without saying a word put an arm around her and pulled her to him and kissed her passionately. When he finally pulled away, Trish found herself speechless. "You're not going anywhere." Dave said to her and they started making out again.

Trish kissed him back hungrily. He started removing her clothes and she started removing his. Their bodies were soon tangled in each other's. They were so passionate they were rough with each other. All of the movement was sending pain through Dave's injured arm but he didn't care and he didn't let on. Soon they were on the floor barely inside the doorway making wild, passionate love to each other.

By the time they finished, they were both so exhausted they went upstairs to the bedroom and cuddled with each other and fell asleep.

When Trish woke up, she found Dave staring at her. "Why are you staring at me?" Trish purred.

"Just thinking about how much you mean to me." Dave replied.

Trish remembered that she had broken down and told Dave what she felt for him and wondered what he thought. "Dave.can we talk?"

Dave pulled her close to him and held her, "Of course, what do you want to talk about?"

"Remember when I was babbling earlier?" Trish asked slowly.

"Yeah, Yeah I do." Dave said with a big smile.

"Am I safe to assume that I didn't scare you away?"

Dave laughed and kissed her, "Yes honey, you see, I wouldn't admit to myself that I was falling in love with you because I thought that I was moving to fast for my own good, so when you told me, I was so relieved, I didn't know how to tell you, so I thought that I would show you in my own way.""

Trish laughed and kissed him, "Well then why don't you show me again?"

"Only if we're a little more gentle, my arm is killing me." Dave confessed.

Trish leaned into him, "I think I can handle that." She purred. And soon they were making love again.

One month later

Dave, Trish and Ashley were seated in Dave's living room with Natalie playing on the floor. Ashley was so proud of Dave for telling Trish the truth about everything. They were watching a movie and waiting for dinner to get done.

Soon, Trish got up and called everyone into the kitchen for dinner. Dave moved Natalie to a playpen and they all seated themselves around the table. They were making small talk while dishing up. Dave cleared his throat, "Ashley, I was wondering if we could talk about something."

Ashley took a deep breath, she had an idea that she knew what was coming, "Yeah, what's up?"

"Well, I was wondering if you would consider Nattie staying with me while I'm home. I mean, I know that we talked about it a little when she was first born, but."

Ashley cut him off, "Dave, she's your kid, if you're ready to take care of her, I'm ok with that. I went into this thing knowing that at some point, you would want her back. If you want to take her for now, and then have me watch her when you go back out on the road, that's fine."

"Well, that's another thing I wanted to talk to you about." Dave started to say. "I talked to Trish, and she would be willing to help me out with her when we're on the road. Since we're on the same show, and we're on the same schedule, and we don't wrestle in the same matches, I'm at a point in my life where I can take her, from now on."

Ashley took another deep breath, she knew that this day would come, and she had spent so long preparing herself, but now she was unprepared. "Ok, not a problem, but you will need to move into a bigger house, you don't have enough room for her since Aly lives with you now."

Dave went over to her and held her, "I know that this has been really hard on you, and I really appreciate you doing this for me."

Ashley pushed him away, "Yeah, yeah, it's ok, sit down and eat before it gets cold."

When Dave sat back down, Trish squeezed his knee. She knew that it took a lot for him to ask. He looked at her and smiled.

When they were done with dinner, they finished working out the details, and they decided that Ashley would finish out the week with Nattie, and tomorrow Trish and Dave would go shopping for everything Dave would need. They would use Aly's room for the time being.

Ashley and Nattie left for the evening and Dave sat down and pulled Trish into his lap. "I can't believe it went so smoothly. I mean, I know it's rough on her, but she'll never admit it."

Trish nodded, "Yeah, I know what you mean. I think that it's really neat that she was so willing to totally change her lifestyle just to help you out."

"We're all like that. Ang and I had Robert's kids for awhile when Robert got divorced because the household was like world war 3, and they didn't live that far away, so it was like a big slumber party for a couple of months." Dave told her.

"That's really neat." Trish said getting interrupted by the phone ringing.

Dave grabbed it, and Trish soon heard him acknowledge that it was Jenni. He talked to her for a few minutes and then talked to Aly for a bit and then hung up. He looked at Trish, "Well, that was the girls wondering when they get to come out. So I told them that we had to figure out a few things and then I'd call them back."

"I still think that you guys should come up to Toronto and stay at my house for the rest of the summer. I know that Aly would have to be back here for school come September, but that would be a nice little getaway for everyone. The girls would have a lot of fun, there are tons of girls their age in my neighborhood. And, I could have my little sis come and take them shopping and on tours of the area, there's more than enough room for you guys at the house, and we could convert some of the rooms to bedrooms for them and for Nattie." Trish offered.

Dave looked a little skeptical, "Trish, are you sure you want us moving into your house for the summer? I mean, I know that you have all of the rooms specially decorated and."

"And nothing." Trish cut him off, "It would be great, please?"

"Alright, I'll have to run it by Ang, but at this point I don't think anything would shock her." Dave said.

Trish smiled and hugged him, "Trust me, you'll love it up there!"

"We'll see, we'll see." Dave said hugging her back.

**Well, do you guys think it will go well? Or will some wild things happen while they're up there, if Angie lets them go up there? Let me know what you think, and I'll update soon, promise!! Please read and review!! Good or bad, I don't mind! Thanks!! **
