Chapter 16:
Regan's POV
I sat at the kitchen table at Shane's house waiting for her. I knew she'd be home any minute. Eddie's meeting with Vince had ended hours ago and his flight back to El Paso left half and hour ago. She'd be home soon and I'd be waiting.
Why did life have to be so damn complicated sometimes? Everything had been going so well, but lately things between Jay and I were, well, strange. It all started a few weeks ago at the Winter Carnival in Tampa.
"Shane, you've been awfully quiet this evening?" I'd asked. "Is there anything wrong?"
The Ferris wheel lifted us higher into the air. "It's nothing."
I gave him a look and shook my head. "No, something is definitely wrong and I want to know what it is."
"Jay told me tonight, I was to and I quote, stay the hell away from you."
I gave him another look. "Are you sure that's what he said. I mean, it is kind of noisy here and..."
Shane's face screwed up. "So what you don't believe me! I should get used to no one believing a word I say. I mean, my own family doesn't even believe me."
That's why I was here tonight, I was determined to get someone to believe in Shane, if only she'd just get here already.
"Jay."
"Yeah." He mumbled from his side of the bed.
"Did you say something to Shane today?" I heard him groan. "He told me that you, sort of threatened him and..."
Jay flipped over to face me. "So, you believe him?"
"I just wanted to..."
"Just wanted to what? Just wanted to what?"
"Look, I'm sorry. He just said you told him to stay away from me. I was just checking to see if it was true."
Jay shot up out of bed. "God! Can't we go one damn day or night without talking about Shane?"
I sat up and glared at him. "And what is wrong with Shane?"
Jay sat there for a moment staring at me. "The dude is in love with you."
"What! Jay that is the stupidest thing I have ever heard in my life!"
"You're just too blind to see it. But I do. And if I see it, so does the rest of the locker room. They're probably all laughing at me behind my back!"
"You know what, I've heard enough!" I climbed out of the bed and headed for the door.
"Where are you going?"
"To the guest room. I've had enough of you and your theories for one night."
I heard the jangle of keys and the front door creeping open. It slammed shut and I heard footsteps down the hall. "What the hell are you doing here?"
"I came for the truth."
Marissa frowned at me. "And what's that?"
"I want you to admit that you are cheating on Shane."
"Oh, am I?"
"Listen Marissa, you can deny it all you want, but I heard it from Eddie's own mouth."
Marissa smirked. "So what if I am?"
"Shane is your husband, he loves you!"
"And frankly dear sweet Regan, I love his money and his name."
"So you admit it, you are cheating on him?"
Marissa inspected her fresh manicure. "Yes, I am having one hell of an affair with Eddie."
I shot up out of my chair. "How can you do this to him! Shane loves you!"
"And as I said. I love his money and his name."
"So what's your big plan, make it look like he is the unfaithful one so you can collect all the cash when you file for divorce."
"Well, looks like Shane has found himself one smart cookie."
"You are one heartless bitch. And let me guess, those pictures you've been taking of me and Shane just play into your plan."
"Bingo, maybe I'm not the only bitch here."
I smiled. "No, but now you have one less ally."
Marissa raised an eyebrow. "What's that suppose to mean?"
"What it means is that now I know the truth." A voice spoke up from behind Marissa.
Marissa turned around. I laughed as her jaw dropped to the ground and she began stuttering. "Lin...Linda...Mom I, she..."
Linda McMahon scowled at her daughter-in-law. "Don't you Mom me you tramp."
A/N: Shane's got himself an ally in his mom, thanks to Regan. What will happen when she tells him the good news? How will Jay react? We're coming down to the wire. Thanks for reading, please review and Rock On!
