Alex's Pov
Wow it seemed so long since the last time I had been to Washington DC this place was like a second home to me. I'm standing over the polished rock that has haunted me for what seems like forever.
"Hey Dave" I said "it's been a while since I've been here I know I can't say that I have an excuse because I don't I guess it is just too hard"
"You know what I heard on the radio the other day the song you used to hum remember Bless the broken road, I cried really hard it wasn't a bad cry it was more like me remembering" I continued my conversation "A lot has been going on I'm going to be a grandmother but you already knew that Deacon told me about you talking to him when he was in the coma and I just wanted to thank you for that and to say that I love you and it wasn't until after you died did I truly realize that, you deserved so much better than me I truly don't know why you loved me"
And then something came over me I began to sing the song Bless the broken road
I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
Now I'm just rolling home
Into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you.
It felt good to sing again for a while I had lost my voice. I smiled although I knew I would probably preform again it felt good knowing that I had gotten my passion back.
"Even now you are helping me Dave thank you and I want you to know you are always in my thoughts and prayers I love you" I said as I kissed the grave.
That night was going to be the last performance Randy and I were going to be apart of because we both decided that we needed to retire. The show went off without a hitch Randy won his last match with me by his side the way it should be. It seemed strange that this was the place where we retired but then again I had learned that fate worked in strange ways. After the match the whole family came down to celebrate. As we walked to the back the whole crowd including Dave's family were on their feet cheering for us.
Our friend Rob Szatkowski aka Rob Van Dam came over and shook Randy's hand.
"Good match I'm gonna miss you man" Rob said
"I'll miss you too" Randy replied
Deacon and Sarah came strolling up behind us they were holding hands. It was a cute picture considering the aggravation those two caused me eachday.
"Hey guys" I said
"Hey" they both replied
"Awsome match pops" Deacon said
"Thanks and if you call me pops again I'll be forced to open a can of whoop ass on you" Randy replied
"Gimmick infringement" Deacon said
"What the hell do I care I'm retired" Randy said
I noticed Sarah looked a little uncomfortable.
"Sarah honey are you alright?" I asked
"To be honest I think I am going into labor" she said
"Oh god ok let's get you to the hospital" I said ushering her to the car. Then I noticed the guys were still standing there with their mouths hanging open.
"You two get your asses in this car now" I yelled
They did as they were told and we drove to the hospital. I called Destiny and filled her in on what was going on. She told me that she would get the kids together and get them to the hospital asap. We had been sitting there in the waitng room for about 4 hours nothing new had been said to us. I was really worried because the baby was about 3 weeks early but then again Brooklyn was about the same when she was born.
Deacon's Pov
I walked out of the delivery room to find practically every person that I knew sitting in the waitingroom.
"It's a boy Xander Charles Orton 5 pounds 2 ounces" I told them.
My parents were the firstto envelop me in a hug.
"Congradulations son" dad said.
But then something terrible happened an alarm started going off and doctors started rushing towards Sarah's room. I tried to enter the room but they wouldn't let me in.
"That is my wife and son in there" I kept screaming but nobody seemed to care.
After what seemed like hours a doctor finally came out I stood up to talk to him it was obvious that I had been crying.
"Deacon I'm so sorry..."
Ok that is enough for tonight it's 2 am and I'm really tired. I'll update either tomorrow or the next day.
