I don't own Randy or anything related to the WWE, so please don't sue me. This is my first story in awhile, so please read and review! Thanks!
Randy sat down on the plane and sighed. He reached inside his fanny pack and pulled out an envelope. He reached inside and pulled out a picture of his girlfriend Danielle and he pulled out the letter that rocked his world. He opened it up slowly and began to read again,
"Dear Randy,
It's pretty obvious that this letter is going to hurt me more than it will hurt you, but I know that I have write it.
We've known each other since we were in diapers, and we've been dating for 14 years now. (10 if you hold off 'till we were 14) But I never, ever seen this coming.
I always told you that I would stay right by your side no matter what you chose to do with your life. When you decided to run off with the marines, I was there to support you. When you realized that it was a HUGE mistake and that all you wanted to do was wrestle and you chose to go AWOL, I was there to pick you up at the airport. When you turned 19 and decided to move to Louisville to go to Ohio Valley Wrestling, I stayed in St Louis to finish my semester of college, then I packed all of my things and moved to Louisville to support you. I went back to school to finish finding myself. When the WWE called and said that they were ready for you, I kissed you goodbye and told you that no matter what, I would love you, support you and be here for you.
Well Randy, I hate to say this, but I lied.
I love you more than you'll ever realize, but I've ignored all of the warning signs far too long. When I would show up at the shows, there were always women around you, and I understand that, you're a very handsome man. But, when you would introduce me to your friends, they never seemed quite happy to meet me. Then I would hear them whisper to each other, but I ignored it. But here we are, the last time I heard from you was on our 14-year anniversary. You came home, we had a wonderful weekend together, I put everything that I was questioning in the back of my mind because of how dedicated you seemed to be to me, but as soon as you stepped on that plane, they all came back to haunt me. Now here we are, 6 weeks later, and I've barely heard from you. 2 phone calls during the hours when you know that I'm at work, a couple short emails, and a package with your new t-shirt is all that I've gotten I've left messages with your buddies just to hear their half-hearted responses that told me something wasn't right. Do you know that I have talked to some of your buddies more than I've talked to you lately? Finally, I called you from work last night, and when you answered, I don't know if you knew it, but I heard the other women in the background. I could hear one of the guys in the background telling you to "hurry up because the ladies were naked and waiting." I couldn't say anything, I was horrified. It was then that I knew…my worst fears were true. Randy, I found out something last night and I really needed you, but obviously you already had your hands full. So, I didn't say anything and I hung up. It was then that I knew what I had to do.
When you get this, I will be gone. There is not a trace of me at the apartment, and as much as it's killing me, I know that it's what's best for me.
I found out something last night and I was calling to talk to you about it, but obviously you already had your hands full.
I'm sorry Randy, but I can't do this anymore. I can't sit at home wondering what you're doing and whom you're doing it with. I refuse to be that woman. I've always told you that, and it's time that I stay true to myself. I have enough on my plate to deal with right now.
The money that you've been sending home, I've been taking care of your half of the bills and everything else is in a savings account. Anything that I've needed, I've used the money that I make. The account information is sitting on the kitchen table. I have your house keys, and I'm in the process of finding my own cell phone carrier, so as soon as I have that taken care of, I'll have your cell phone also.
You know, I never thought that this would be something that I would have to do. It's funny how time and distance can change someone. You can start a love with good intentions, and then…when you look up, it's gone.
Sorry to ramble, I hope that this letter finds you with health, wealth and happiness.
Good luck with everything you choose to do with your life.
Danielle-
Randy shook his head and tried to blink back the tears. He couldn't believe that he had gotten so sucked in that he didn't realized what he had been doing. Randy had begun taking his character a little too seriously and had turned into his character. He was a member of Evolution, 4 guys who were the past present and future of wrestling. They were covered with women and they would go out drinking almost every night. Randy had allowed himself to succumb to the pressure from his peers and womanizing. He was raised better, but his ego had gone to his head and now he was losing the one person who had stuck by him through everything.
She was everything he could have ever wanted in a woman. She was beautiful, smart, athletic, got along wonderfully with his family and she loved to have a good time. They had been together for 14 years literally. Randy could only picture his future with her.
But, Randy had began to grow a little restless on the road, and everyone who knows him knew that he loved women and sex. And, he let himself decide to taste temptation and it was just enough to put Randy on the course to destruction.
Randy went to one of his mentors, Ric Flair, and asked for help. He wanted to know what Ric had done once he seen the errors of his ways. Ric smiled, "Champ, you fucked up. If you don't want to lose her, I suggest you get your ass home and tell her everything, be totally honest. But then be totally honest about your feelings. If she loves you as much as you seem to love her, maybe there'll be a chance."
Randy went to Vince and asked for a week off, and Vince had been kind enough to grant it. So now it was up to him, could he possibly win her back?
The flight attendant brought Randy back from his thoughts. She asked him to return his seat to the upright position because they were about to land.
Randy gathered up his things, and soon exited the plane. As he got off the plane, he could see his sister waving. He walked over to her. "Hey." He said as he gave her a hug.
"I don't know what went wrong where, but good luck with this." His sister said hugging him back. She could see that he was a wreck.
"Thanks Becky, I'm going to need it." He said. "Alright, lead me to the car."
They walked out to where the car was. Randy drove Becky home and then headed to his house.
Randy walked in and could feel the loneliness in the air. As he walked through the apartment, he could tell that Danielle didn't lie. There was no trace of her anywhere. He walked into the kitchen, and there was the envelope she had mentioned. The only thing that remained of her now was the pictures of the two of them that they had put up together when they moved into the apartment. Randy sat down and cried. He had totally screwed up the best thing he had ever had. He cried until he could cry no more.
Randy got up and decided it was time to win her back. He hopped in the shower, got dressed, and headed off to Danielle's work. As he drove, he called her office and scheduled an appointment with her.
Danielle sat at her desk, looking out the window. She knew that she had a major report to finalize and yet all she could bring herself to do was to stare out the window. When she turned to face her computer, there was a picture of her and Randy that she had forgotten to take down. It was hanging on the wall of her office, it had been taken when her and Randy were on vacation together down in Mexico for their senior spring break. She was in a beautiful sun dress, and he was in jean shorts with no shirts. They were both extremely tan, and they were cuddling on a pier watching the waves roll in. She got up to take it off the wall when her buzzer went off.
"Your 4:00 appointment is here." The receptionist called.
Danielle looked at her schedule, she didn't have a 4:00 appointment that she could recall. "I'll be up in a minute." She replied.
She quickly finished and printed off her report and dropped it off on her way up front. She walked through the glass doors and Randy felt his heart skip a beat. He was so nervous. But she looked good. She had her hair up in a messy, yet professional-looking bun, she had her glasses on, and she was in a black blazer with a white blouse and a just-above the knee-length black skirt on. She had on black heels and she looked a little stressed.
Danielle didn't even notice him, she went to the receptionist's desk, "I'm here for my…"
And before she could stop, Randy stood up, "4:00 appointment?"
She looked at him with a deer in the head lights look. What was he doing here? Why wasn't he on the road, he was supposed to be. "Not here, not now." She started to say when he stopped her.
"Why don't we go to your office?" He asked gently. He didn't want to push her too far, he was afraid of pushing her completely away.
She swallowed hard and looked to the receptionist, "Unless it's urgent, can you mark me as busy through the rest of the day. I'll let you know when you can open it up again. Thanks." She turned to Randy, "Follow me."
Randy hadn't been to her office since she got the promotion. She had been promoted to account coordinator for the corporation. It was her big break, and she deserved it.
She opened the door and led him inside and closed it behind him. "Can I get you anything to drink?"
"If you have a water, I'll take one." Randy replied. It was so weird to feel so awkward around her.
"I'll be right back." Danielle said as she walked out of the office. As she walked through the office to the fridge and back, all she could do was try to keep herself from not crying, not backing down and to show him that she could be strong.
Danielle took a deep breath and walked back into the office, "you can sit down." She said offering him a seat as she handed him his water. "I have your cell phone for you, I was going to drop it off tonight, but it's in my car, so I can get it for you if you need." She started to say when he interrupted her.
"I'm not here about the phone, I'm here about us." Randy replied He took a deep breath and tried to keep from crying, "Danielle I love you, I don't want to lose you, I know I was stupid, but please, please give me a chance to explain, to take the blame and to talk to you."
Danielle's eyes filled with tears, she had known Randy for a long time, and she could tell that he was hurt. But he had hurt her, and that's what she had to remember. "I don't know Randy, I don't think that would be a good idea."
"A good idea? Danielle, we have 14 years together, we can't just throw this away. I love you, I don't want to lose you." Randy said standing up. His adrenaline was pumping. He needed her to know everything.
She stood up, "You're right Randy, we did have 14 years together, but you threw it away. Did you or did you not sleep with the other girl? Or should I say girls?" She shot back. At this point she was crying, it hurt so bad to say.
Randy swallowed hard, this was going to be the hardest thing he'd ever have to do, he knew that she was hurt, but now he had to break her heart in two. "Can we do this somewhere else?" Was all he could say without breaking down.
"Let's go." She said grabbing her purse and her briefcase, she was trying to wipe the tears from her eyes. She couldn't let this eat at her any longer. She knew that she had to face him eventually.
As they were leaving, she stopped by the front desk, "I'm going to be leaving for the day."
The receptionist nodded and Danielle caught up to Randy. As they were waiting for the elevators, she dug around in her purse and pulled out some Goldfish crackers. She began eating them.
Randy looked at her and smirked, "Did someone work through lunch again?"
She looked back at him with a guilty look on her face, "Kinda…Would you like some?"
He shook his head as the elevator arrived. As they got to the parking lot, Danielle looked at him, "Where do you want to go?"
"Why don't we go to our place?" Randy suggested carefully.
"Got it, your place. I don't have keys, so you'll have to meet me outside the front door." Danielle said as she climbed into her car.
"Ok, see you there." Randy said as he climbed in his truck.
And together the two pulled out of the parking lot and headed back to Randy's to talk.
Alright, please read and review. If you think she should give him another chance, or should he have to work for it? Let me know your input, and I'll post a new chapter tomorrow! Thanks!
