A/N: I'm gettin' lazy with chapter titles, deal. People, I need reviews. Eighty ((Probably fifty my own)) hits is extremely flattering, but one review?
peace and love,

The funeral was a sad affair, only Rey, Marlena Eddie, and a pretty woman of about 27, named Marisol, a close friend who spent hours since she arrived from Chicago comforting Marlena. The minister spoke, Miranda's favorite passage of the Bible, Marlena sang 'I will remember you' and immediately fell into Eddie's arms, sobbing afterwards. Marisol spoke the eulogy, and set Marlena off again.

As the casket was lowered, however, a simple button was pressed from a near by tree, and flames shot out of it, sending the flowers alight, and the ground crumbling around it. It served another purpose though. It hardened Marlena, and a single tear, the last tear she would cry until the bitch who killed her sister was in living hell.

Rey sat numbly in his locker room, for the seemingly thousandth time, looking a small picture of Miranda, a smiling, pretty picture of her. He missed her so much, more than anything he could recall. She would still be alive if only he hadn't taken her to their first date place. Sadly it was their first date and also their last. He felt so terrible knowing that she left him. Also because he always told her "I'm always here for you."

The last thing he said to her was 'I love you.' He cant, wouldn't imagine saying that to another person. It was really hard to just let go when all he could think about was the love of his life being taken away. It was like losing your best friend, and girlfriend. He remembering the laugh, the smile, and the optimistic words that inspired him to do what he does.

He was interrupted by the slight knocking on the door. "Come in," he managed to say without shedding a tear. A woman entered the room and she was holding up white roses with a red prickly rose.

"Rey... I know this must be hard on you," Sally said walking slowly towards him. He didn't even look up at her.

"Sally not now..." Rey said while standing. He placed the photo of Miranda on the desk. Sally quickly shot a glare at the picture. Jealousy ran threw her veins and up to her temples. She could feel her heart race at what she did. She couldn't help but stifle a laugh.

"Rey... I love you," Sally said her hand on Rey's shoulder. He shrugged it off.

"I don't. I love Miranda."

"But I need you.. I want you. It's okay, Rey, really. I did it for us. I know right now you cant admit you love me but in time it will come." Sally said glaring at Rey.

Rey looked up, "...Did what for us?" he thought of Miranda instantly.

"You killed her?" Rey asked fury grew inside.

"Don't ask silly little questions like that. I know you wanted it to happen. I know that you fell in love instantly with me. I did too. We need each other. We can start a family together. We can move into a house. Isn't that what you always wanted? I checked on your profile. With a white picket fence, and a beagle, like you grew up with. I also cant believe you got a ticket for littering! I did too, we have so much in common!" Sally chatter a hysterical edge coming to her voice.

"How do you know all of that?" Rey asked, a hint of fear grew inside. He felt he was looking into the eyes of his girlfriends murderer.

Sally dodged the question, " Like the scar above your right knee, I made myself get one too. It hurt like hell though."

"Get out, NOW!" Rey commanded. Sally looked half- hurt. She turned to leave but stopped.

"Remember, Rey I love you more than anything else in this world. I did it for us. I know that you love me but don't want the world to know that though. I don't think it will effect your job as a professional wrestler. You know I attended all of the SmackDown shows since you first started. I know talent when I see it," Sally said. She had a glow in her eyes. She walked over to the desk, picked up the picture of Miranda, and tossed it into the wastebasket, "You wont be needing this anymore you have me."

"GET OUT!" Rey retorted. He walked over to the wastebasket and picked it up, "I will never love you," Rey said placing the photo back down onto his desk.

"Shut up. Please don't make me hurt the people you love," Sally sounded hurt. As though she didn't want to say what she said.

"What! GET OUT NOW OR I WILL CALL THE POLICE!" Rey shouted.

"Please, Rey, try to understand me. You cant call the police, you love me. Remember?" Sally asked. With that she walked out the door. She stood in the hallway half hoping that Rey would come out and stop her from leaving, but he didn't. She left Rey's door open.

Rey stood in the same spot where he was originally standing. He didn't know what to do, or what to say. He was confused. Anger, pain, and his loneliness made him lose his cool. He turned around and began to scream like a little kid would and punched a hole in his wall, just like an angry teenager would. That didn't make him feel any better.
