Lost Confused Unkind
Chapter 112
Doctors ran around, doors swung open & closed as paramedics wheeled in numerous patients. It was a busy night but they all seemed to go past me in a blur as I sat there in the waiting room with Adam, Shawn & Jay. Adam had called Sasha & it seemd everyone was back at the hotel just waiting around for news. It was a nightmare! My sister, brother and my nephew & niece had waited around for ages nt really sure of what to do or where to go until Sasha eventually found them & explained what was going on. Poor kids! It was meant to be the night of their lives, getting to meet their idols and instead they got nothing! It was meant to be the first night in a long time that I got to have fun, let my hair down & just be 'me'! But I let my guard down, tried to be happy, I should've known it would all be another major fuck up! Same old same old! Maybe some people just weren't meant to be happy? Maybe I was destined to live a life of misery?
The doors flew open again, medical staff rushing to the aid of yet another gurney. As it dissapeared down the corridor Shawn stood up & started talking to some guys. It caught my attention & I looked up. They were all wearing black polo shirts, each shirt bearing the 'WWE' scratch logo on the breast. What was going on now? I didn't even care! I slumped in my chair & rubbed my temples as Shawn slowly walked back towards us, hands in the pockets of his jeans & a concerned look on his face.
"Well what a night this is turning out to be!" He sat down beside me, "Seems one of the crew just drove a truck into a wall!"
"Really?" Adam sat forward.
"Yeah the guys there said he just went nuts! Did it on purpose from what they could see!"
"Anyone we know?" Jay yawned & I wondered how they could even give a damn about some psycho crew member when Dwayne hadn't even opened his eyes yet!
"No don't think so! New guy apparently!" Shawn stretched his legs out infront of him & crossed them at the ankles, "Steve something or other! Never heard of him myself!"
My stomach lurched. "Not Steve Lazenby?" Jay sat bolt upright in his chair.
"No!" Shawn waved his hand dismissively.
"Can you guys excuse me a moment? I need to find the ah ladies room!" I stood up and made for the direction of the rest rooms, checked to make sure they weren't looking and doubled back up the corridor towards the treatment rooms.
it had to be him I just knew it! How else could he have gotten close enough to tamper with the ropes between matches? Before Jeff & Dwayne's match there had been a hardcore match, lots of debris to clear from the ring, perfect! But why did he drive a truck into a wall?
I crept along the corridor as doctors & nurses passed me in too much of a rush to even notice I was there! I looked in the window of one room, JEFF! I stopped & put my hand on the handle, then thought better of it! I needed to know if it was Steve in one of these rooms or not! Jeff was ok, there would be time enough to check on him once I knew the truth! I looked into room after room until I finally found what I was looking for.....a crumpled black WWE polo shirt thrown onto the floor in tatters! My heart raced as I stepped inside. I couldn't see the bed for the mass of doctors & nurses around it frantically working on their patient. I stepped forward & one of the male nurses saw me!
"Miss! I'm sorry you can't be in here!" He took hold of my arms as I stood on tiptoes trying to see past him and get a view of the person in the bed! "Miss! Please! you have to leave!" He had me backed up to the door!
"I'm......I'm.....his ah....sister!" It was the first thing that came into my head!
"Well that's all well & good but you still can't be here! Wait in chairs and we'll come & get you as soon as there's any news!"
"Please! I just want to see him! The...the guys, they aren't sure if it's him or not, he's new to the job see & they don't know me! Please! I just need to know!" I begged him & he turned towards the doctor who quickly nodded.
"Ok! Just look & tell me if it's your brother!"
He stepped aside & I swallowed hard before walking closer to the bed. A couple of the nurses stepped back, there was blood everywhere, I'd never seen so much blood! And then I saw him, lying there, his body covered in gashes & bruises & I felt no pitty at all. It was Steve! I Stared at him battered & bloody. I wanted to laugh, cheer, wish him dead but instead I just shook my head, turned and left. Once outside the room I had to run to the nearest bathroom to empty my guts into the toilet. I just wished I could wake up in my bed, snuggled up to Dwayne, looking forward to going to Miami, happy! As I wiped my face & looked into the shabby mirror I saw a person staring back at me that I no longer recognised or cared about! No one that I loved would ever be safe from this jinx I seemed to have hanging over my head! Everything I touched turned to shit, it was lucky for Jude he was miles away, safe with his grandpa, away from me!
"Lucky escape kid!" I whispered & threw some water on my face.
"Bec! You in there?"
I sighed, "Yeah I'm just comming!" I opened the door, "What is it what's happened?"
Adam smiled, "Dwayne woke up!"
