A/N: Thank you for any reviews on the earlier chapters and for any this garners if I don't tell you before the end. I tend to sometimes not think about it when I am writing so if I ever forget, you will get it in the end. This chapter will be a song chapter and it should fit, because it is a good song and well if it doesn't, then damn it all to hell. This chapter is not a serious one, but I felt using this song, it might convey where they both are coming from.

What day is it? And in what month?
This clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time

She sat by his beside watching him sleep, longing to reach out and touch him, let him know she was there and she wasn't going to go anywhere until he was better but couldn't. She had never once been privy to watching a man sleep aside from Charlie and as she sat there now, eyes glued to the man before her, she realized the thing she hadn't wanted to admit to herself since he had come into her life.

I really do love him. It isn't just some dream, this is real, he is real and I love him with everything in me.

The only question now was how she was going to make him come back to her, the Randy he was before. The doctor had said he had sustained such brain damage in the accident that he had lost memory, long term and short. It was really ironic what happened to people when all they were doing was caring for someone else.

He had been there, from day one, from the first second she knew something was wrong and what had she done for him in that time? She had kissed him once, of her own accord and the longer she sat there watching him sleep, she knew that it might never be enough. What happened if she didn't get the Randy she had fallen in love with back?

Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

He fluttered his eyes then; Jackie still trained on every move that his body made. She did give in to her need then and without a seconds thought she brushed her hand across his, willing him to open his eyes and come back to her full with memories of what they had been through. The thing she hadn't admitted to anyone other then herself came to her mind then and she smiled at the thought. She did indeed love him and aside from that she realized for the first time in her life, she needed him.

Maybe it was the way he went out of his way to make her smile even when she felt like absolute crap, or maybe it was just the fact that he knew he didn't have anything to do with what happened to her, but in the end still wanted to make sure she was alright.

While she watched him sleep, his eyes fluttering in and out of conscious sleep, she let her mind drift back to their first dinner together and the comment that had made her blush but still not make a move even though her heart had certainly wanted to her too.

All of the things that I want to say just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping on words
You've got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here

"So about earlier—

She shook her head and used her hands in a motion to stop him before he could even get the words out. "Don't think anything of it. It would be just like Charlie to bring some weird girl in here so that when I got home I would tan his hide for it. The funny thing is, she wants him she can have him."

Randy raised his eyebrows at the way she spoke thankful again that she couldn't see the way he was reacting to it. "Are you sure about that? I mean you two were pretty close before the brand expansion came in and ate you up for Raw."

She laughed slightly, allowing herself to relish in the feeling of being able to laugh again after spending the last three days in the hospital worried about the outcome. She hadn't realized how much she missed doing it until now. "Nice choice of words. You sure you came from an army navy base right? You sound more like someone from my hometown."

"Lucky hometown." He realized what he has said the minute it came flying out of his mouth but in the end he had no idea how to deal with the fallout. He didn't want her to think he was only here to pick up on her. He did want to make sure she made it back to the ring in record time.

"Why thank you for trying to make me feel better. Listen, if you don't mind I think I need to go and lie down in the living room, my head seems to be spinning with everything I took in today."

He immediately stood from the chair and within seconds was beside her, guiding her to where he had placed the pillows and blanket only minutes before. The doctor had told him she would be like this for a while and all he needed to do was make sure she got the proper rest and nutrition and it would likely pass.

As she lay down on the couch he immediately reached out for the blanket, unaware that she was also reaching for the same thing. As soon as their hands touched, the spark hit, almost sending the shaken Randy right off his feet and unto the floor.

She opened her eyes, the vision of the spark they had felt even then in the beginning still paramount in her mind. There had been a reason for it and at the time neither one wanted to admit it, but what about now? She would fully admit that she loved the big lug if he would just open his eyes again and tell her he was alright.

She didn't have to wait long because as soon as she had placed her other hand tightly around his and her head down on the bed beside his thighs to say a silent prayer, he moved slowly, shifting his body to accommodate his size.

Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to prove
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

She moved with him then, allowing herself to sit back into the comfort of the soft chair and she immediately caught his eyes staring at her, as if lost to the world. "Randy, you are awake."

Well that was a smart thing to notice. She thought to herself before smiling softly and pulling her hands away.

He immediately reached out for her, wanting her to put them back. He didn't know her and his head was a sure fire mess but he knew that having her hands there certainly felt like it was something that should be happening.

"You don't have to pull away. I can't say I know you but having you holding my hand felt normal. Do we know each other well?" he asked, the look on his face one that she hadn't seen him wear in the short time she had known him. It looked as if he was lost in a sea of thoughts he couldn't make sense of and just wanted to get out. Randy needed someone to make it all right.

"You could say that, we've sort of been living together." She stated, not wanting to hide anything from him for fear of backlash if he didn't soon learn his identity and life again.

There's something about you now
I can't quite figure out
Everything she does is beautiful
Everything she does is right

He watched the young woman before him fidgeting, nervous to be around him and he wondered just how well they had known each other before living together. If the woman before him was his wife, then why did she feel like she didn't belong?

From what he could see of her, and there was a lot to see, she was the prettiest vision his eyes had ever laid eyes on. There was a reason that God gave you the ability to see and in the end Randy knew that she was the reason that he could see. He couldn't explain what was going on between them, but it seemed like it would be something that he would want to finish.

He had to admit to himself there though that even though he didn't know what he was doing there or who the heck he was, that he knew that even when she was nervous she was beautiful and it was completely natural.

"What is your name?"

She coughed, holding both of her hands now over her mouth, as if she was afraid to touch him. He hoped that as soon as she felt better she would put her hand back and felt his entire body wanting the same.

"Jackie, my name is Jackie and you are Randy Orton. We work together."

Randy smiled, knowing that whatever they did for a living would surely have sucked if she wasn't a part of it. "And what is it we do?"

"We work with the WWE, which means we are wrestlers."

"My father was a wrestler." He stated as if it was just a normal thing to be shot off the tongue.

"Yes he was, and he was a good one from what I know of him."

Randy looked at her strangely as if she should know his father better if they were indeed living together and then realized that maybe she hadn't been the woman he spent his nights with after all.

"Are we married?"

She blushed then, and he noticed that when she did, it made her face a peachy color that could never be duplicated. It made his stomach do flip flops just watching it. He wanted to call her on it, but didn't want to scare her away. She already looked timid enough as it was.

Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you
and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to prove
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

"We were friends. I had an accident in the ring about a month ago and you were helping me get better."

"You look great to me. What exactly happened to you?"

She blushed again and this time Randy reached out and touched her hand with his own, making her blush even harder. "I lost my sight in a match against you and some other men, and well you felt that you should be with me until I got better."

"And?" he asked, wondering where her cane was if she was indeed blind now.

"That's what I am in here to tell you I guess. I thought since you don't remember what has been going on, it might do you some good to hear that I am regaining my sight as we speak and I am able to see you again for the first time in a long time."

Randy smiled then, indeed happy that she was able to see again and that it was getting better everyday. He didn't think he had a role in it, but in the end if she believed that he did, and then he would take whatever he could. She seemed like a girl he would want to reach out and help any way he could.

"Would you mind doing something for me?" he asked then, cutting off his train of thought and looking at her with a smile that seemed to light up his face. The typical Randy Orton grin she hadn't seen in a long time.

"Anything, what is it you need?"

"I am going to get more sleep, my head seems to be pounding, but if I fall asleep while we are talking or anything would you mind staying until I wake up? I don't want to be here without you."

He closed his eyes then, wanting an answer but wanting to rest his weary body more. If the young woman, who called herself Jackie was there when he woke up then he knew for sure what he had needed to know since the minute he awakened the first time.

If she was his Angel.

What day is it?
And in what month?
This clock never seemed so alive
