A/N: Okay, I think that this is the second last chapter of Salveme. so read
it, and let me know what you think, because I really did enjoy writing this
story, and coming up with the idea.
Thanks
Samantha.
"Babe, it's okay." John reassured her, while the others watched from around the locker room.
"I'm just an old dreamer." She said softly. "I never thought that life could turn out like this."
"It's not so bad." Rey told her. "You've got a beautiful son, people who love you, and no matter what happens, chica, you'll always have us."
As he finished speaking someone knocked on the locker room door and opened it.
"Lita, I was just wondering if I could take Zane for a while?" Hunter asked, poking his head in the door.
"You were wondering if I'd let you take my son out of my sight when the last time you did you kidnapped him and wanted to rape me?" She asked, clearly shocked, but also angry by his question. "Let me think about it... NO."
"You're being a little unreasonable." He told her. "Why won't you let me do anything for him? You told me I couldn't set up a trust fund for him, I couldn't take him to the park, now I can't even take him for a walk around the arena or something?"
"No." Lita shook her head. "You got it all right. You can't do any of that, because I don't trust you." She willed herself to stop trembling.
"Lita please, I'm trying to do the right thing." He pleaded with her. "I just want to spend some time with Zane."
"No quiero volver a verte." She said, standing up and walking away from him, locking herself in the bathroom.
"You've gotta learn to quit when you're behind." John told him, shaking his head at the bigger man. "Just leave her alone. You've done enough."
"What did she say?" Hunter turned his attention to Rey to translate.
"She said 'I never want to see you again.'" He translated.
In the bathroom Lita sat down on the closed toilet, trying to calm herself.
"Lita, honey?" Matt's voice called out to her. "Is everything okay?"
"Just leave me alone." She called back.
"Honey, he's gone now, you can come out." He called again.
"I don't care." She shrilled. "Just leave me alone."
"Are you right to go?" Matt asked, putting one arm around Lita's shoulders.
"I think we've got everything." She nodded.
"So let's hit the road!" Jeff grinned, picking Zane up from where he lay on the couch. "Come on little dude, let's get you home to NC."
Lita and Matt both smiled, and Lita turned to Rey. "Thank you for everything you've done for us. I've never had a closer friend, or a better brother." She reached out and hugged him. "Come visit us in North Carolina."
"I will." He promised. "Have a safe flight, and take care of my little luchador."
"Promise." Lita smiled.
Lita dumped the magazine she was reading on the floor as the baby monitor crackled to life, with sounds of Zane crying.
"Do you want me to go?" Matt asked, looking up from the sports section of the newspaper.
"It's okay." She smiled at him as she left the room.
Several minutes later she reappeared, scooping up her magazine and flicking idly through a few pages.
"Matt?" Lita asked. "What would you think if I quit RAW?"
"What would I think?" He repeated, looking up from the hockey stats. "I don't know. What do you want to do if you quit?"
"Maybe be a stay at home mom, for a little while. Maybe go back to work somewhere else."
"I think you should do whatever you think is going to make you happy, and I'll support you no matter what that is." Matt told her. "If you want to be a stay at home mom, or go back to wrestling, or even try a different job, I'll be here whenever you need me. I love you."
Lita surprised him by curling up to rest her head in his lap. "I love you too Matt. Thanks for the advice. I think I know what I want to do now."
Thanks
