Sunset Cove Resort

Everyone turned their attention towards Rob. Autumn was speechless, until Randy spoke. "I'm going to kill him!" He started towards Rob, but Autumn grabbed his arm. "Don't Ran, he's not worth it. Don't make any more of a scene."

"The hell I won't. This is our wedding day and if Van Dam wants to cause trouble then I'll give him trouble."

Hunter and Dave restrained Ran before he could go any further. "Let us handle this man. Stay cool." Hunter and Dave made their way down the aisle to Rob, who stood his ground.

"Look, I don't want to cause any trouble. I just need to give Audi this." Rob held up a small box. "Just let me give this to her, and I will leave."

Hunter and Dave smiled cockily. "Yeah sure, give it here. I'll see that she gets it." Hunter reached for the box. Rob stepped backwards. "No. I have to give it to her. Now get the hell out of my way." Rob pushed past the two hulking men and made his way down the aisle. Approaching Autumn, he looked deep into her eyes, bearing his soul. Never uttering a word, he placed the box in her hand. He turned to leave and cam face-to-face with an enraged Orton, who punched him right in the face. "You bastard! Can't you get the picture? Audi loves me. WE are getting married. GET OVER IT!!!"

Rob rubbed his jaw and glanced at Autumn, who was clutching the tiny box to her chest. He gave a slight smile and walked away.

Mel put her arm around her sister and whispered in her ear, "What was that all about?"

Autumn who was visibly shaken by the whole ordeal, managed to mumble. "I...I'm not sure." She shoved the box into Mel's hand. "Keep this safe, until I can open it."

"Do you need some time, or shall we continue?" The preacher asked impatiently.

"We're ready. Please continue." Randy held her hand in his.

Although Autumn's heart was being tugged by the haunting look she saw in Rob's eyes, she couldn't let it get to her. She was over him. Ran was the love of her life. But she couldn't deny the way her heart had raced when he showed up. She also, couldn't ignore the spark she felt when he placed the box in her hands. He still occupied a small corner of her heart, but not a big enough piece for her to call the wedding off. Now her heart belongs to Randy Keith Orton.

The ceremony continued and Randy and Autumn were pronounced husband and wife. They shared a beautiful kiss and ran down the aisle, as the guests blew bubbles.

Hunter escorted Melony. Followed by Dave and Dawn, Ric and Lita, Trish and Mark Jindrak. Hunter slightly tightened his grip on Mel's arm, "Now you have no choice but to listen to me."

"I don't want to hear anything you have to say H. I love Chris, we're happy, the end."

"No Mel, it's not the end. I love you and I won't stop loving you. What happened in the ring that night was an accident. It was just one of those things."

"Hunter, I don't blame you for Chris's injury. I blame myself. I'm happy, I love him. Leave us alone, please."

"I can't move on Mel. I can't just stop loving you. Do you expect me to just flip a switch and turn my heart off?"

"No I don't. But I do expect you to respect me and my decisions. Now, if you'll excuse me I have to find my fiancé." Mel turned to leave, H grabbed her hand and pulled her to him and kissed her. "I love you." He smiled and walked away, leaving Mel completely stunned.

At the reception, everyone was having a great time. Audi and Ran did the cake cutting and of course, Ran ended up with cake all over his face. Then they made their way to the dance floor, for their first dance as Mr and Mrs Randy Orton.

Chris and Mel sat at a table by themselves drinking champagne. They were totally oblivious to everyone around them.

"I know you didn't have a clue that he was the best man. What I don't understand is why your sister didn't inform you of that tiny detail?" Chris said, as he knocked back his glass of bubbly.

"I don't know. I guess she has just had a lot on her mind."

"So are you going to tell me what he said to you when he escorted you down the aisle?"

"Um, he really didn't say much. Nothing that should cause you to worry. Can we drop this and just enjoy the moment?" Mel smiled and leaned over and planted a big kiss on him.

"Sure babe! We need to be heading back to the hotel if we are going to make it to Atlanta on time." Chris poured another glass of champagne.

Mel looked at him puzzled. She had to be in Atlanta tomorrow for Raw, but Chris was suppose to stay at their Miami home and continue physical therapy.

"What do you mean we?"

"Well, I can't just sit at home without you. I'll go crazy." Chris sipped his bubbly and smiled his mega-watt smile. "I've decided to travel with you and be your manager."

"My manager? Chris are you drunk?"

"Not yet. Wait a few more minutes. No, seriously. You've been getting a lot of modeling offers since doing the cover of the Divas 2004 magazine. You need someone to field all those calls and crap."

Melony just laughed. She had to admire his creative determination of trying to spend time with her. "What about physical therapy Chris?"

"Well, I think the trainers at Raw can help me out and a lot of loving from you is all I really need."

"I love you Chris."

"I love you too babe. Now can we go?"

Mel threw her head back and laughed, feeling the effects of the champagne, she trailed a finger down his chest. "I can't wait to get you back to the room, you sexy beast! Just let me go say bye to Audi and give her this." Mel held up the gift from Rob.

"Hey guys, Chris and I need to run. Not everyone has time off to honeymoon like you two lovebirds." Mel said with a smile.

Autumn gazed into Randy's eyes and he leaned down and kissed her. Turning to Melony he smiled. "You don't need any time off sis, you can handle things." He playfully punched her in the arm.

"Hey that's Queen Sis to you! Now enjoy your time off, cause when you get back I'm going to take it to you in the ring. Now can I steal your wife for a minute?"

"Sure, as long as you bring her back."

"Yeah Ran, don't worry. I'll bring her back safely. Gee, you are stuck with her for life. A few minutes won't kill you." Mel laughed and pulled Audi out onto the patio.

"I'm really happy for you and Ran. You guys are lucky that you found each other." Mel gave her sis a hug and a kiss on the cheek. "Now here is the mystery gift from Rob, and I have something for you too." Autumn took the box and started to open it, but decided it could wait.

Melony handed her sister a larger box and watched as Audi opened it and pulled out a red, Raw brand tee shirt. "Um, ok. Thanks. I don't get it." Autumn thought her sister was playing some kind of trick.

"Well, you see, I got Eric to pull a few strings. In three weeks, you will officially be the newest member of Raw."

"You didn't! Oh Mel thank you so much! I mean it, thank you. You don't know what this means now I will be with my entire family. I love you so much. You are the greatest sister ever."

"Yeah, I know." Mel said with a cocky smile.

"How did you keep that secret from me?"

"It was easy since Eric just got the go ahead from Vince yesterday."

"Thanks Mel, I owe you."

"Well, I need to get Chris out of here before he gets too intoxicated."

"Ok. Give him a hug for me. I love you guys."

They hugged one last time and Mel left, leaving Autumn staring at the box she held in her hand. She sat down at a nearby table and took a deep breath. She slowly opened the box. Tears stung her eyes as she pulled out a gold and platinum, ying-yang necklace. She closed her eyes and held the pendant close to her heart.

Flash Back

"You are my destiny Autumn. You were made for me. The heavens sent you here for me to love and cherish. I love you Audi." Rob held her hand as they walked along the beach. There was a full moon and stars filled the sky. "I can't imagine my world without you." He pulled he close and sweetly kissed her.

"Rob, you are so wonderful."

"It's not hard to be wonderful to you. Loving you is easy, it's being away from you that kills me."

"Just give it some time Rob. We'll work it all out." The breeze blew gently as they walked along the shore. Rob came to an abrupt stop and started drawing in the sand.

"Rob, what are you doing?"

He looked up at her and smiled. The moon reflecting in his eyes, his dimples shined as bright as the stars. He continued drawing a ying-yang symbol in the sand. He walked back to Audi and took her hand. "I know it's not technically a real ring, but it's the best I can do for right now. Will you Autumn? Will you marry me?"

End Flash Back

Autumn opened her eyes and stared at the pendant in her hand. Tears fell, as she sobbed quietly.
