My Forbidden Heart – Chapter 11
Randy arrives at John's hotel room and raises his hand ready to knock when he hears noises coming from inside. Randy puts his ear closer to the door and listens carefully and realises that the noises coming from within the room were sexual moans. Randy's blood started to bubble inside him and he realised that on the other side of the door Cena and Michelle were having sex. He felt sick to his stomach and more than anything wanted to knock the door off its hinges and hurt Cena and drag Michelle out of there but then he realised that whatever was happening behind the closed door was his fault because he ended things with her. Randy sighed and dropped his head in sadness and turned and walked away from the room.
LATER – AT THE SHOW
Cena drove the car into the parking lot and parked up and looked over at Michelle in the passenger seat. He could see she was upset and also fearing what would happen when she and Randy met inside the arena. It was inevitable that they'd have to see each other and speak to each other but it didn't stop Michelle from hoping she'd miss him completely.
"Hey" said Cena putting his hand under Michelle's chin and raising it and turning her beautiful face to him. Michelle looked at Cena and gave a half smile. "It's going to be ok you know?"
"Don't pretend. Its guna be hell and I deserve it"
"Why do you deserve it?"
"Because I made his life hell. My Dad, my problems I know I wanna escape them, imagine how he felt all that time. And now…"
"Don't feel guilty about what we did"
"I don't! Randy most likely did the same thing to spite me"
"That why you slept with me to spite Randy?"
"How could I have been trying to spite him? I could barely remember last night"
"You slept with me this morning too"
"Because I wanted to. It had nothing to do with Randy and if you think it did then let's make sure it's the last time we sleep with each other. I mean we don't want you thinking you're a cheap replacement" Michelle got out the car and slammed the door behind her and stormed off.
John soon got out the car and ran after her. He put his arm around her as they walked into the arena.
"I'm sorry" said Cena apologising
They continued into the arena.
LATER
Michelle and Cena were stood at catering getting themselves something to eat. Michelle turned to find somewhere to sit when she turned to see Randy stood at the door. Cena turned to join Michelle and saw Randy and Michelle staring at each other. You could see the anger in Randy's eyes as he stared at the two of them and without saying a word Randy turned and walked away. Jericho was sat watching the scene and saw his friends heart break before him. Michelle put down her food and left the room. Cena followed her all the way into Randy's locker room where they found Randy pacing the floor. Michelle had gone with all intentions of fighting it out but when she got there she couldn't find the words.
"You two are unbelievable" said Randy stopping and turning to Michelle staring daggers at her.
"Randy…"
"Was he worth it?" asked Randy dropping the bombshell that he knew their little secret. Michelle turned to Cena who didn't seem fazed by this. Michelle turned back to Randy with tears present.
"Randy it was…"
"The tears aren't guna work Michelle. You slept with him"
"You dumped me!" she screamed
"Yeah and by the looks of this I made the right decision. I thought I was with the most amazing girl in the world but in actual fact I was screwing the biggest whore in the world"
"Hey!" said Cena stepping in to defend Michelle's honour "She didn't do anything wrong. You'd broken up she was a free agent"
"The relationship wasn't even cold before she started warming you up. And you…I thought you were my friend"
"I am"
"No a friend wouldn't have done this. If a cheap piece of skirt means more to you…"
"Hey! Watch what you're saying about her"
"Or what? Her newest schmuck is guna start something?"
Cena took offence to Randy's words and pushed him into the wall. Randy stopped for a second before attacking Cena. The duo fought around the room as Michelle frantically tried to stop them.
"Randy get off of him" she pleaded as Randy threw hard rights at Cena. Cena fought back and slogged Randy dazing him long enough to get back to his feet and tackle Randy smashing him against the wall.
"John quit it!"
Just then Benoit came in and pulled John off of Randy and pushed him to the other side of the room and as Randy got ready to pounce he was stopped by Bret. Michelle looked at her Dad in disbelief she couldn't believe he was there in front of her. Why was he there? Randy and Cena calmed their selves and Benoit walked Cena out of the room and told him to go wait in his locker room. Bret looked at Randy and then at Michelle.
"What's going on here?"
"Why don't you ask your precious daughter?" said Randy pushing passed Bret and walking out of the locker room.
"Well?"
LATER …
"Oh and this is my fault?" asked Bret after listening to Michelle's side of the story
"Did I say that?"
"You said he couldn't put up with you and your problems such as me"
"You are a problem but you're not the reason we broke up so you can take that self satisfied smile off your face"
"Boyfriends will come and go but…"
"Dads are forever yeah I know" Bret smiled at his angry daughter. "So what are you doing here?"
"Returning this" he said taking the VHS out of his pocket and passing it to Michelle.
"This is your copy" she said taking it and throwing it down on the bench.
"I don't want a tape…" Michelle sighed and sat down next to the VHS "…I want to see it for real" said Bret sliding across the bench and putting his arm around his daughter who looked at him in sheer shock. "I know I've been an…"
"Ass?"
"Not the word I was guna use but I guess I have been yeah"
"You've been a complete ass"
Bret laughed "Alright I've been a complete ass and I treated you and Randy like crap because I couldn't come to terms with the fact that my first born was stepping into the world on her own and making such a damn good job at it"
"You think I'm doing a good job?"
"I did until I came here and saw John and Randy fighting"
"You do have great timing"
"In your love life you're crashing and burning…"
"Thanks"
"…But professionally you're a Hart and I don't want to miss out on your time in this business because I'm so damn stubborn"
"You stubborn? No!" said Michelle sarcastically
Bret squeezed his daughters head and kissed her before releasing his hold on her.
"So I've been talking to Vince and he said I can come back to WWE to be with my girl but only if you want me to"
Michelle turned to face her Dad "You wanna come to WWE and work alongside me?"
"Yep"
"After everything you put me through?"
Bret began to feel guilty as his daughter stared daggers at him. "I said I was sorry"
"No you didn't you said you were an ass you never actually said you were sorry. You never once apologised to me nor Randy"
"Why should I apologise to him?"
"You had him pinned against the wall threatening him!"
"I'm not apologising to him not after what's he's done to you"
"And me? Are you going to swallow your pride and say sorry to me?"
"I'm sorry"
"A hollow apology just what every girl wants"
"Don't push me Michelle"
"You wanna stick around go for it but I don't want you anywhere near me until I get a real apology. You put me through hell. You made me feel bad for following my dreams. You gave me an ultimatum. What kind of father does that?"
Michelle walked away angry leaving her Dad behind in complete dismay.
LATER – AT A RESTAURANT
Michelle was sat with Jericho in a restaurant escaping Randy, John and her Dad.
"It's not that bad" said Jericho smiling while sipping at his beer.
"Yeah you know you're right. It's not that bad…it's worse"
Jericho laughed "You certainly know how to cause trouble for yourself"
"I was angry"
"So you slept with Cena?"
"I didn't sleep with him because I was angry I slept with him because at that moment in time I needed the comfort. I needed to feel wanted and sexy"
"Did it help?"
"Until it stopped yeah then I just felt bad. And then of course Randy knew and I felt even worse"
"Then Daddy turned up and you felt like dying?"
Michelle laughed "God yes! He turns up and asks what's going on and I'm expecting Randy to blurt the entire thing out"
"Does your Dad know the entire story?"
"Not quite. There are some things you just don't tell your Daddy"
"Especially yours" said Jericho with a smile
"I can't believe he thought that him showing up would erase everything. He disowned me no matter how long or short a time the fact is he disowned me. And then he comes back into my life and refuses to apologise for being a jackass"
"He's your Dad he's not supposed to apologise. I know he should but he's got it in his head that he shouldn't have to because he's the parent and you're the child"
"Yeah but if he doesn't he's guna go on thinking he can treat me like that I'll just forget and let him walk all over me again"
"I don't think he's guna do it again"
"You wanna a bet?"
"No I won't take that bet because I think we both know your Dad better than that"
Michelle smiled at Jericho as they continued their night out away from all the chaos of Michelle's life.
AT THE HOTEL BAR
Randy was sat at one end of the bar drinking in a bad mood as Cena sat at the other both looking for a fight as they stared viciously at each other. Just then Bret tapped Cena on the shoulder and directed him to Randy as Bret pushed Cena in Randy's direction Randy got off his seat.
"Sit down" ordered Bret
Both Randy and Cena sat down.
"Drinks over here" said Bret to the bartender. He turned Randy and Cena around to face him. "Now you've probably heard some stories from Michelle that make me look like a terrible father but don't think for one minute that those bad decisions and moves I made came out of anything other than love. I love my daughter more than words could express, she is my first born and will always be my little girl. Now I may not like to fact she's growing up and moving away from home and setting up life somewhere else where I can't check up on her every ten minutes and getting herself a career that will sky rocket her even further away from her Daddies loving arms but the thing I hate the most is my daughter growing up physically and needs the attentions of stupid young boys like you two. As much as we fight with each other there is no one more important to her than me and she will always love me. Now lying to me the way she did was killing her, the guilt of lying to her Dad and I know that between you, you helped her through it and for that I wanna thank you. But how dare you use that as a reason to hurt my daughter" said Bret staring at Randy "You made her think you were committed. You moved in and made nice with her. And amazingly enough after you got brought back up to the active roster you no longer needed somewhere to stay and my daughter all of a sudden wasn't good enough for you. Don't think I didn't have you pegged from day one because I did"
"It wasn't like that. I really do love her"
"If you love her you wouldn't have hurt her"
"You claim to love her and you hurt her"
"Michelle wasn't upset with me she was angry"
"If she wasn't upset then why was I wiping her tears away?"
Bret was knocked back by Randy's word and his heart thumped hard in his chest at the thought of hurting his daughter. Bret soon snapped out of his trance and continued.
"If I hurt her then I apologise and it wasn't my intention but you, if you loved my daughter she wouldn't have had the need to sleep with him" he said pointing at Cena "And as for you how can you call yourself a friend to either of them? You took advantage of my daughter's vulnerability and betrayed your supposed friend" he said pointing to Randy. Cena looked at Randy and back at Bret "Now I'm warning both of you. I don't want to see my daughter hurting" he said directly at Randy "Nor do I want to see her being used" he said turning his attention to Cena "And if I hear your names come up in a negative way then I can assure you the repercussions are also going to be negative. Now enjoy your drinks"
Bret slapped both of them on the shoulder and walked out of the bar. Cena and Randy both stunned by Daddy Hart spun around to face the bar and picked up their drinks and downed the contents.
"Want another?" asked Cena
"Yep!"
LATER - AT THE HOTEL – 3AM
The elevator opened and Michelle kissed Jericho goodnight as she walked out of the elevator.
"Bye" she said to Jericho as the doors closed
Michelle proceeded down the corridor and stopped at a door and knocked on it waiting patiently for an answer. John opened the door in his boxers and wiped his tired eyes as he looked at Michelle.
"Do you know what time it is?" he asked Michelle who smiled back at him.
Michelle looked at her watch "Just gone three. Can I come in?"
Cena sighed and stepped aside to let Michelle in. She walked in and stopped dead in her tracks and turned to Cena not making herself comfortable and getting straight to the point.
"Last night wasn't a mistake, this morning wasn't a mistake. I did nothing wrong. Me and Randy were over all I was doing was moving on. And you most definitely did nothing wrong in fact everything you did was pretty damn good"
Cena smiled as he leant against the set of drawers.
"But…" he said helping Michelle along
"It was too soon. I can't switch off like that I can't love him one minute and not the next. I need time to get over him and I don't think getting over you counts"
"So we were good and did nothing wrong but you're not ready for anything else?"
"Pretty much"
"Ok. So where are you staying tonight?"
"I don't know I might get a room of my own"
"There's always one half of the bed for you if you need it. In a strictly platonic way of course"
Michelle smiled and walked over to Cena and kissed him on the cheek.
"Thanks"
Michelle smiled at Cena and walked out of the room. As Cena heard the door close he stumbled over to the bed and collapsed and fell to sleep within minutes.
UP ONE FLOOR
Michelle slowly ascended the stairs dreading her next destination. She walked down the corridor the closer she got the slower she walked. She finally made it to the door and took a deep breath before knocking. She waited to no reply and knocked on the door once more. Minutes later the door opened and Randy with just a pillow covering himself answered the door.
"Michelle!" he said shocked to see her there
"Hi"
"What are you doing here it's three in the morning?"
"I need to talk to you"
"Can't it wait till a more reasonable hour?"
"Err…sure"
"Ok cool" said Randy closing the door. Michelle stopped him from closing it.
"Can I have my stuff?" asked Michelle
"Now?"
"Well I don't have anything so yeah now would be best"
"Err…I'll pack it all for you and drop it at Cena's in the morning"
"I'm not staying with John. Why are you trying to get rid of me?"
"Because it's three o'clock in the morning I'd like to get some sleep"
Michelle pushed open the door with force and saw what she was dreading a beautiful blonde sat up in bed with bed sheets wrapped around her and guilt present at Randy's face.
"I'll be two minutes I swear" she said storming into the room. Randy shut the door and followed her in.
"Michelle I can explain this"
"There's nothing to explain" she insisted as she picked up her case and threw it on the bed, the heavy case bashing the girl in the bed.
The girl stood up and pulled the bed sheets with her to cover herself. Michelle proceeded to put everything in her case. Once she finished she zipped up the case and put it down on the floor and pulled up the handle and pulled it towards the door with her as Randy watched on with the girl using him as a shield. Michelle approached the door and reached for the handle and suddenly stopped. She smiled and pushed the case back through to the main area with her. Randy gave Michelle a confused look as she put the case against the wall and walked into the bathroom. Michelle shut and locked the door behind her as Randy pulled on some pants. He walked over to the bathroom door and knocked on it.
"Michelle what are you doing?" Randy waited impatiently for a reply that never came "Michelle?" just then the door opened and Michelle walked out in a hotel robe which wasn't fastened and which showed her amazing physique and covered only by her sexy purple lingerie. She walked passed Randy and his company and walked over to her case where she opened her hand luggage and pulled out a book.
"Michelle what the hell are you doing?" asked Randy walking over to her
Michelle ignored Randy and walked over to the bed where she sat down and opened her book. Randy looked at his company.
"I'm sorry about this" he said apologising as he walked over to Michelle and crouched down at the side of the bed. "Mich what's your game?"
"I don't play games Randy"
"Oh no? Then what the hell is this?" he asked pointing at her on the bed
"This is me reading before I go to sleep in my room"
"This isn't your room"
"Yeah it is. I arrived here and got given this room. I don't see why I should have to pack up and try to find somewhere else to stay because you dumped me. If anything you should leave and why don't you take your visitor with you but…wait…no it doesn't matter" Michelle put down her book and walked over towards the girl and pulled the covers away from her the girl now naked squealed and ran into the bathroom slamming the door behind her.
"What is your problem?" screamed Randy
"Well I was a little cold but now I've got my bed sheets back I'm sure I'll warm up. Her on the other hand she may find it a tad nippy"
Michelle walked back over to the bed and picked her book back up and sat reading it. Randy looked around for the girls clothes and took them into the bathroom to her. Randy then walked out and over to Michelle.
"Do you know how childish you're being?"
"I'm not being childish I'm just failing to understand why I the victim should be the one walking around at three in the morning looking for somewhere to stay when I have a perfectly good room here"
"You're unbelievable. What did your Dad tell you to do this?"
"No me and my Dad haven't spoken since you and John were being childish and fighting earlier on. This is all me Randy this is my new independent self doing what I need to, to survive"
"You wanna survive you better get the hell out of here so me and Kayleigh can continue from where you interrupted"
"Good luck sweetie she just left" said Michelle with a smirk on her face Randy stood up and walked over to the bathroom which was empty.
"I don't believe this" said Randy rubbing his head as he stood at the foot of the bed staring angrily at Michelle as she smiled ecstatically from behind her book. "You happy now?"
"Not even close. Do you think this is what I want? To come in here and find the man that I love in bed with another woman?"
"Yeah because it was a real trip for me to hear you and Cena going at it"
"You dumped me!"
"Yeah which means I can sleep with whomever I like"
"You dumped me Randy and by the look on your face we ain't getting back together but just because you say it's over doesn't mean I stop caring about you or stop loving you. It's not that easy"
"And just because I said it was over doesn't mean I'm over you Mich but I never will be while I'm holding onto the past. That's why Kayleigh was here"
"You were using her?"
"No she's wasn't expecting anything other than a one night stand"
"That's how you get over me?"
"Yeah"
"Did it work?"
Randy shook his head "You didn't give us enough time"
"So you two didn't…?"
"No we were just getting to that when you came in to read"
Michelle laughed "If I'm really that hard to put up with and I'm driving you as crazy as you make out I am then you're right I'm not worth it. And I wouldn't want you to be miserable because of me but spiting each other like we are…If we care that much about getting points off each other and care that much about what the other person thinks then maybe just maybe we're not making the right decision in breaking up. I'm not going to beg you Randy because I'm Hart and I've got more pride than that. Now if you think we're over then I'll have to get used to that but if you think that maybe there's something special between us then you'll find me and tell me"
"Find you?" asked Randy.
"Yeah" Michelle stood up and walked into the bathroom minutes later she immerged fully dressed. She put her book in her bag and walked over to Randy. "I'm going home. I'll tell Vince its personal problems; I guess I'm not lying. Maybe I'll see you, maybe I won't"
"Is this that whole if you love something let it go and if it comes back to you that's how you know it loves you too thing?"
"Something like that"
"Don't hold your breath Mich"
Michelle looked up into Randy's eyes and saw the sincerity. She dropped her head and prepared to leave the room and Randy. Michelle walked over and put her bag on her shoulder and walked towards the door with her case. Randy walked passed her and opened the door for her and Michelle gave him one more glance before leaving. Randy shut the door behind her.
