"Hello?"

"Paul, it's Lulu."

"Hey squirt. Where are you?"

"I'm on my way north."

"I see. How are you? I tried to call you last night at the hotel, but there was no answer."

"Yea, part of the night, I was out of my room, and the other part I was packing for my trip. Plus I had things to think about."

"Out? I know that you wouldn't go clubbing the way things are, so where did you disappear to?"

"Just to see someone."

"Is this a mutual best friend or someone else?"

"Someone else Paul."

"I wanted to talk to you about last night. What was up with not talking to Scott?"

"Paul, I love him, but the only thing I needed last night was to get into an argument with him."

"He came to see you."

"I expect he did, but when I was around, he didn't utter one syllable. I am not the only one who can initiate a conversation."

"Where is this coming from? Normally, you are very forgiving of Scott and his faults. Recently, you've been busting his balls."

"I think I'm finally growing up. All of my life, I've chosen to take what everyone else dished out, and not fight back. Now, things are changing. I'm realizing I don't have to be anyone's doormat. I'm realizing that there are other people besides Scott Hall that love me. Hell, I've wanted to be with him since I first met the man, but maybe some things aren't meant to be. Who knows? I've got a lot of things to think about this week."

"Yea."

"Where is Scott, Paul?"

"I thought he had gone to see you. He had mentioned trying to catch you at the airport before you left, but…"

"Paul, did he go to the airport?"

"Lulu…"

"Paul, this is a simple yes and no question Blondie. Did he go to the airport?"

"Yea. He hasn't come back yet either."

"Oh God he saw it. This is all my fault. If I hadn't tried to prove a point, this wouldn't be happening."

"What Lulu? Tell me. What do I need to prepare myself to handle"?

"Shane took me to the airport this morning. Last night, something happened with Shane and I, and when we got to the airport this morning. He told me to think about what we had discussed, and he kissed me goodbye. I mean kissed me goodbye. If he saw that, it'll destroy him."

"What the hell happened that had Shane McMahon kissing you? I noticed that when they were doing the 10-bell salute, he was hugging you like I hugged Joanie…wait a minute. You aren't dating Shane are you?"

"Not right now no. But the offer has been presented. I was actually thinking about taking him up on it. But then on the other hand, it would feel like I'm cheating on Scott. I told Shane I'd let him know in a week my decision."

"Jesus. This will be fun."

"Let me try and call him."

"No thank you. I think you've done enough right now."

"Listen asshole, you're not talking to Joanie. I will not bow down to your every wish. I need to talk to him."

"Lulu, don't! He won't want to talk to you right now."

"All I can do is try."

"Whatever. Bye. Damn, I cannot believe this girl."

"What's a matter man?"

"Kid, try and track down Scott. Do what ever you can to find him. If we don't, he may lose her."

"What do you mean? Didn't he see her at the airport?"

"He saw more than just her. He saw he has competition for Lulu's heart."

"Who in God's name would even try to go after Lulu?"

"She's always thought about herself that way too man. She told Kevin that up until she and Scott finally told each other that they loved each other, she thought she would be alone for the rest of her life. She never thought she had a chance with anyone, much less Scott."

"Shit, I sounded like such a friend with that remark, didn't I? Most everyone knows about the history between her and Scott, so why would a guy try to fight that battle?"

"I guess Shane thinks that he can make her happy. Hell Kid, she deserves it just like everyone else. She's been through hell all her life, and she wants someone who can finally give her a little happiness."

"McMahon? No shit? Wonder boy finally had the guts to admit he liked her. I'll be damned. If Scott saw it though, he will go ballistic."

"Time for a field trip."

After I hung up from the conversation I had with Paul, I tried to call Scott. I only got his voicemail, telling him that we needed to talk and I would try and call him when I got to Calgary. I also told him that I loved him, no matter what he may have thought at the particular time. Bret and Georgia picked me up from the airport. When we got back to the house, I spent the better part of 3 hours with Martha. She asked my opinion on things concerning the service, and about possible legal action against the WWF for Owen's accident. I told her that was completely up to her. She and his family would have to live with the results of whatever they chose to do. I did have feelings about the entire thing, but it wasn't my place to share. When Sunday night finally arrived, I was just about drained. Martha had called from the funeral home and we had talked on the phone for about 45 minutes, me trying to calm her down. She was getting more and more upset each day that drew closer to when she would bury the love of her life. I was under orders of Bret to try and get some rest. He was heading over to the main house in an hour, and told me he didn't want to worry about me as well as everyone else. A few minutes before Bret was to leave, there was a knock at the door. All of a sudden, I heard Blade saying "Daddy! Uncle Scott is here!" Well, I thought for a minute and realized that none of the Hart kids were named Scott, so I figured that it was one of Julie's brothers. Then I saw a sight at the bedroom door I would have never pictured in a million years.
