Chapter 20:

Regan's POV

"I feel so horrible."

"Trish, you didn't do anything wrong."

"I told you to break a leg and you did!"

"I didn't break my leg, I just torn a ligament in my knee. I'll be back." I looked at the immobilizer on my knee. "I'll be back before you know it."

"I miss you not being here. I feel so alone without you or Amy."

"At least you still have Stacy."

"True. I didn't really like her at first, but know I can see she's really sweet." Silence fell between us. "Yes."

"Yes what?" I asked feeling very confused.

"He's here tonight."

"Oh." I said softly. "How does he look?"

"Okay, I guess. A little sullen. Shane promised he'd stay in the office tonight and steer clear of Jay."

"Good."

"You're strong Regan. You'll get through this."

"Thanks Trish." I heard her giggle on the other end.

"No problem. I'll call you later, okay?"

"Okay." I hung up the phone and stared at the picture in my lap. It was of Jay and me on our first date, laughing and smiling in happier times. I gazed at it for the longest time before putting it away.

Jay's POV

I wrapped the tape around my wrists preparing for my upcoming match. My heart ached. I hated to admit it, but I missed Regan. I missed her smile, her laugh, damn Shane McMahon for ruining everything. "Hey good to see you here tonight." I turned to see Chris standing behind me sweating. He grabbed a towel off the bench. "Missed you the other night."

"I wasn't feeling up to being there. I don't really want to be here tonight. You know with Regan being here and all."

Chris raised his eyebrow at me. "Regan isn't here tonight."

"Huh? Not here."

"You mean no one told you."

My heart began to beat faster. "Told me what?"

"Regan torn a knee ligament the other night. She's out for awhile."

"Is she all right?"

"Yeah she's fine."

My heart slowed down. I was happy to hear she was all right. "That's good."

"Listen some of us are going out tonight, are you game?"

"No," I said shaking my head. "I think I'd rather be alone, you know let things sink in."

"That's cool. Well, if you change your mind." I nodded as Chris grabbed his gym bag and headed for the shower.

The locker room was empty. I pulled out a picture of Regan and I on our first date. We were so happy then, how did it all come to this? My concentration was broken by a soft rapping on the door. Torrie Wilson popped her head in. "Mind if I come in?"

"No," I said quickly stashing the picture in my wallet. "No, come on in."

Torrie smiled and closed the door behind her. "I just heard about you and Regan. How are you doing?"

I shrugged. "About as well as I can."

"Well, I just wanted to tell you if you ever need a shoulder to cry on or just someone to sit and listen, I'm here for you." Torrie smiled shyly at me and patted my hand.

"Thanks Torrie, that's really sweet of you."

"Well, I better get out of your way. I know you have a match to prepare for." She stood up and headed to the door. "Jay, feel free to take me up on my offer anytime." Torrie smiled once more before disappearing into the hallway. I pulled out the picture of Regan and I again. I stared at it for the longest time, then I put it away. Maybe I would take Torrie up on her offer.
