Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters, except for the OC and the plot.
P.a stirs and rubs her eyes. She turns to the side to look at the time.
P.a's POV
What? It's 4 am? Well I'll just go out for a drive, if that's okay? Nah, they won't mind would they? Nah, I'm awake already, I can't sleep once I wake up. I'd better take shower too, o do not want to go riding with morning breath.
She steps into the shower, and felt the warm water splashing down her. She shampoos, soaps, rinses, dries and grabs whatever she could wear and dresses up quickly. She runs a comb through her hair, and finds her boots.
Well maybe I just hop I don't bump into anyone I know. I grab my keys an my bedside table and some cash. I quietly walk out the door and go to our garage. I open the light and saw my bike, helmet and my jacket which was neatly folded on top of the bike. Damn, it's a bit cold tight now, even though we're in Texas, since it is October. I open the garage door and push my bike outside. I rush back and close the light and the door. I start up the bike and here I go. Driving along the green pastures, it's really relaxing when you drive and there's a beautiful scenery. It's great to be back home where I really belong. I'm almost near Eddie's house, I see someone sweeping outside, at this time? I park my bike and take off my helmet, the person sweeping stops and walks towards me.
"P.a? hija? You're awake already and riding?"
mrs. Rogers says.
"I know but I can't sleep you know"
I reply.
"Well I hope Eddie doesn't find about this one, you know how he is about this"
"Yeah, but he's asleep right now"
"Remember that time, when you went out at this time? He panicked so much, he called the police?"
"Yeah, I really remember that, the look on his face was priceless"
"So where are you going missy?"
"Well I'm driving to unwind"
""It's about him?"
"Sort off"
Mrs. Rogers knew that me and Taker were a couple.
"Come on sit down"
She ushers me to seat on the swing.
"You know, you're going to be married"
She started.
"Uh, Mrs. Rogers, the wedding is off"
I interrupted.
"But how? I mean?"
"Umm… long story cut short, well Taker cheated me with Sable"
"Oh my, when did that happen?"
"Jus the day before me and the amigos came here"
"Come on here"
She hugged me tight. How I love this feeling, Mrs. Rogers was the mother I never had. She looked at me and said
"I am still dreaming the day you get married, I'll be right there at your side, don't worry. But you could have been happier with Eddie, but I will still wait for the day when that happens. Now better get back there, Eddie might just call up the police"
I chuckled and put on my helmet and said
"I'll just drive to get something, see ya and take care Mrs. Rogers"
"You take care too hija!"
She replied and I drove off, I was nearing the city. It was already 5 am and everything was pitch black. I parked my bike in front of Starbucks which was surprisingly open. I went in and took out my helmet and was about to order when suddenly
"Aren't you P.a? The girl who wrestled Dawn Marie in a cat fight when you were in Pennsylvania?"
The cashier said and I nodded.
"could I have your autograph?"
He asked me then there was a shriek in the kitchen and there were cameras flashing everywhere and autographs.
"Uh, could I have a hot Vanilla, for take out?"
I asked, and was about to pull money out and he said
"No, it's on the house, you're a WWE Superstar"
"Thanks,"
I smiled at him and he gave me my order. I went out and felt the cold wind brush my face. I put my coffee at the container and drove back. It was a bit bright now, and as I neared the house, oh no, the lights were on, I am so dead. I parked my bike right in the front of the garage and went to the front door. I was about to open the door when it was suddenly opened.
"Where have you been?"
Eddie asked, whoa boy, I knew I shouldn't have slept.
"I just went out to get coffee, and went to your house and talked to Mrs. Rogers"
I reply,
"We were worried sick!"
"Eddie! I'm not a kid! I'm already an adult! I could fend for myself!"
"You shouldn't have told me, so we didn't have to search the whole place!"
"You were sleeping and it was four am!"
"I don't care! If you're gonna wake me up and tell me, at least I know!"
"I'm sorry"
"Promise me, never do that again, I don't want what happened last time"
"Okay, I won't"
He hugged me as if he won't let me go, see what I mean?
"Uh, Eddie, I can't breathe"
I said, he let go of me and said
"Now, get dressed, breakfast is ready"
I give Eddie my coffee and scurry upstairs to change.
Eddie's POV
Que horror, she almost gave me a heart attack. Goodness, I set her coffee on her usual place beside me and go back to the stove. Shawn, Rey and Chris are already seated, drinking coffee. I get the bacon and the pancakes and set them on the table. I could hear P.a's feet scurry to the table, she is wearing those slippers again.
"P.a, are you wearing those slippers again?"
I ask,
"Yeah? How'd you guess?"
She replies.
"Call me psychic"
"Haha, very funny"
I could hear the chair scrape and she sits down. I put the bacon and the pancakes on the table. We start to eat in silence, it was already 7 am, and she was up at four. She was three hours gone for coffee only, goodness. I cannot believe her, is she that adventurous? She stands up and puts her dishes on the sink. I look at her and ask
"Where are you going?"
"I'll be in my room"
she replies and she goes back up and I hear the door slam.
"Isn't that a bit harsh Eddie?"
Rey asked me
"No, it was for her own good you know, I was afraid for her you know"
I reply, well it's true you know, she could have been kidnapped by Taker. Man, that's why I'm worried about the things she does. Well, I think I'm a bit to harsh on her, we continue eating and discussed about where we were going for the holidays. It's going to be long time before we go back on vacation. We wash our dishes and they retreat to their rooms. I think I really should go to there and apologize, I think that I was a bit to harsh on her. I knock on her door
"P.a?"
I knock again.
"P.a? I'm going in"
I say and I barge in, I look around the room and see no one. Where is she? For dios… hay que horror. I look at her window, open, with the October wind blowing in, oh no. I look outside the window, the fire exit. Oh yeah, I forgot, she has a fire exit here, I climb up the ladder. She was on the edge of the roof looking at the bright sunrise, hugging herself. Woah boy, I should not have lectured her. Oh no…. I am so dead, I tap on her shoulder,
"Hey esse"
I say. She turns around to me and replies
"I'm sorry for walkin' out"
"It's okay, I should be the one who is sorry, I should not have treated you that way, you're not a kid anymore"
"Yeah, it's good you know, but I'll tell you next time when I go out alone again"
"Okay, so I could make it up to you, we're going to the club tonight, and we'll go riding today"
"Really?"
"Yeah, we'll go"
"Thanks!"
She scampered down the ladder, I shook my head, she is so hyper. I look at the view, yeah, she really likes it up here so that's why she's cooped up here sometimes.
"Eddie! You should be changing now!"
I hear her shout, hehe she really doesn't let me out then. I climb back to her room and she's already dressed up in here riding clothes. She really looks cute when she's in her cowboy hat, I bet she's gonna wear that to the dance.
"Coming Eddie? I'll be at the stables okay?"
she says and she walks out of the room. I walk back to my room and take a shower and dress up and pick up the cowboy hat that she gave me. Rey, Shawn and Chris are staring at me.
"What?"
I asked them
"You're going riding Eddie?"
Shawn asked me.
"Yeah? gotta problem with that esse?"
I reply I walk out to the back door to the stables which was a few minutes walk. I see her brushing Storm, our horse. I could see that she was feeding the rest also. I walk to Thunder's stable, that's my horse you know, he was black with brown markings on his head.
I see her strap up the saddle already, and see her get up.
"I'll just warm up for a bit, I haven't done this in a long time"
She says, I nod her head and brush Thunder after a few minutes I put the brush down and take a look at P.a. She already took out her hat and she was jumping over the fences with Storm, it really looked like a natural thing to her, she was really good. She was laughing; I bet she's having such a good time. They were walking and then they trotted and then they galloped and ran, and they stopped to a halt. She just couldn't stop smiling; I bet she misses this so much. I strap my saddle to Thunder and I go up and trot to her. When I arrived, there were beads of sweat on her face; she was wiping it with her handkerchief.
"You look warmed up huh?"
I ask her. She nodded and said
"So ready to go?"
I nod in reply and followed her, we made a trail in the forest, with a stable at the end. I looked at the surroundings and remember the times when we always camped here. I think it was already over two hours when we were nearing the end.
"P.a?"
I ask, I looked at her and she was sleeping, tsk, it's okay, the horses know their way to the trail. Heck, it was the only trail available and we reached the clearing and we arrived. Storm stopped and I let Thunder stop too, so I can put P.a down too. I tie him up and went to Storm and tied him up, and carried P.a. to the shed. I put her on the bench and I sat on the rocking chair. I saw her stir, and I say
"Are you alright homes? It looks like you're tired"
"Yeah, I'm alright, just tired again"
"I wanna ask you something…"
Oh.. no Eddie! Don't…
"What?"
"Why does riding come so naturally to you?"
She looks at me, in my years of knowing her, I haven't asked her about her family background.
"er… Eddie, well are you prepared to listen?"
"Yeah, I'm prepared to listen…"
now this is going to be a long one. She sucked in a breath and said
"Well, I was about 3, dad introduced me to horseback. We owned stables to the great horses in the race tracks. We bred them, took care of them until they were sold. I was a caretaker, doing my very best. I never learned, I just watched the riders go up and watch them ride. I was always up to the wee hours in the morning, taking care of Sunnny, the best horse that was about to be sold to the rich guy who always visited the stables. It was my birthday and I spent it with her, she was already 3 when I was seven. The rich guy came and was going to pick her up. I couldn't bear to see it, I was crying when they took Sunny away from me. That night, I couldn't be happy anymore, all my cousins were there, all the family was there. No one could repair the hole in my heart that Sunny made. Then dad came in while we were eating and told me to go outside. And asked me, what was my birthday wish. I replied, if I told you, it wouldn't happen. Well it isn't gonna happen anyway because what I wanted was the impossible. He led me to the stables and told me to close my eyes. We walked for a bit and he told me to open them. I saw my Sunny trotting to me in the old roundhouse. I couldn't believe my eyes, he was there, I hugged him and it seems that we could never part. When I was fourteen, after I left the farm to go to your place. He died of depression and old age, that's why I love horseback riding and why riding comes naturally to me"
She deeply and there was silence. I looked at her and told her
"We should go back now, it's already 2 pm"
She stood up and went to untie Storm, I went to untie Thunder and we rode back. It was so quiet, I bet I made her a bit sad. Damnit Eddie stupid move! Well I think it was already another two hours and we arrived at the stables. She tied up Storm and walked back to the house. I tied up Thunder and trying to catch up with her, but just reached in the nick of time before being slammed face first to the door.
Shawn's POV
P.a stormed in and she went upstairs and slammed the door shut. Woah, don't tell me Eddie made her mad again. Eddie walks in and Rey asks
"Eddie?"
"Long story"
He replies and goes up to his room. Tsk, they really need to work on their issues. But what the hey? Then all of the sudden Eddie tells us,
"You'd better prepare, club time at 7pm okay?"
He walks to his room and shuts the door.
"Well, they must be telling us something that we don't know?"
Rey said.
"Nah, can't be, they are like an open book, actually, they can't be together, could they?"
I ask, I am worried, Eddie cannot be with P.a. Chris shook his head and said
"Can't be possible, it just happened so fast you know"
"I think you're right"
"Yeah, unless P.a cheated behind Taker's back"
"She couldn't do that you know, we all know how she loves Taker so much"
"Yeah, I guess you're right, well I'd better prepare guys"
Rey says and he goes up his room. Me and Chris follow and I just fell on the bed, I am so lazy today.
I look around and see people, lots of people, in suits and formal dresses. Where the heck are we? I look around and see Holly, Charlie, Teddy Long, Eric, Hunter, Batista and Benoit. All of the sudden somebody taps my shoulder it was Eddie
"Uh, homes, you're up in the first pew"
"But why?"
I reply, while he was pushing me towards the entrance,
"Request of the couple"
He said and I walk down the aisle and sit on the first pew. I was beside Rey and Chris, they looked a bit sad when they looked at me. There in front was Taker, dressed up in a old Victorian tuxedo, now that's something you don't see everyday. There's the priest and the people are coming in. I hear the bride's entrance music and everybody stands up. She was wearing a black and white Victorian dress, and I was surprised to see every lady dressed in black. Ain't weddings supposed to be white or something? I don't mind, she walked along the aisle and her veil was black so I couldn't see who she was. When she arrived in front, Taker removed her veil and faced us. I couldn't believe my eyes, it was P.a. this could not be happening. She was wearing black blush, eye shadow and her lips were apple red. She looked straight at me and tears began to fall and said
"Help me Shawn, help me"
I stood up and tried to reach her, but everything seemed so slow, they were about to kiss.
"GAH!"
I shouted, woah, I clutched my chest. What a dream, I can't believe I dreamed something like that. I look at the clock, oh no, it's 6:30. I take a shower and dressed up. I was wearing a black with white stripes polo and long pants and black shoes. I went out to find Rey and Chris were watching tv downstairs. Eddie went out of his room and stood outside P.a's door.
"Waiting for her?"
I asked him, he nodded. He was dressed up in a white polo with a orange undershirt, underneath. I went down stairs to watch with Chris and Rey. After a few minutes passed, I heard a whistle
"YEOW! HOT MAMACITA IN THE HOUSE!"
Eddie shouted, I was getting engrossed in what I was watching. I heard the clacking of heels going down the wooden stairs. I felt the couch move as Chris and Rey turned their heads. Fine I'll just have to turn my… oh my god. I was staring at P.a. wait, is that really her?
"Uh, guys? What are you staring at?"
She
said, well my god, look at the fuck that you're wearing, you look
gorgeous! HELLO!
"I told you she was hot!"
Eddie said and he got slapped at the back of the head by P.a.
"Ouch! What was that for?"
He asked.
"For you to shut up"
She said. All I could feel was my jaw drop on the floor. She was hot, not just hot, she was scorching! She was wearing white top with some sort of net material around it, she paired it with a slashed skirt and rubber shoe high heels. She really looked so good, then I felt a hand wave over in front of me
"Shawn?"
P.a. said and I snapped out of it,
"Hurry up, we're going to be late, they're in the car already"
She added. I closed the door and went to our car, I sat beside Rey since P.a was in front.
"So where are we clubbing?"
Rey asked Eddie
"We're going to, Cool Cats it's just a few minutes drive to the city"
He replied. I was looking outside the window and saw the lights go a bit down in the city, this is going to be a very long night.
