Enjoy the chapter.

I woke up the next morning around 5 am. I had just had a horrible dream. I woke up in a cold sweat. I did not want to go back to sleep. I showered and got packed. We were leaving for Vancouver at 10 am. I decided to go to a café for some coffee. I passed by Dave's room. I could hear the TV. I decided to knock and see if he wanted to go with me. I really did not fell like being alone. I knocked on the door and waited. Dave opened the door a few minutes later.

"Hey." I said.

"Hey, you ok? It is six in the morning." he asked.

"Yeah, I heard you up and was wondering if maybe you wanted to grab some coffee?" I asked him.

"Sure, let me change." he said. I just stood there.

"Get in here." he said as he pulled me in. He changed in the bathroom and came out. He looked at me and threw me a hoodie.

"Put this on. It is cold this morning." he said.

"Thanks. Sorry, still in another world." I told him. We left and walked to the café. He was right; it was cold. We grabbed some coffee and sat in the corner.

"You ok?" he asked me.

"Yeah, no, I really have no clue." I told him.

"What was it?" he asked me.

"I had a visit from my past. I didn't want to deal with it. How about you?" I asked him.

"No, I am still dealing with my divorce." he said.

"Your wife call again?" I asked him as I sipped my coffee.

"No, I miss my girls." he said. He showed me a picture.

"Dave, they are beautiful." I said.

"I know I made them." he said. I smiled at him. We were drinking coffee and talking when my phone rang. I answered it because it was Steph. I told her where I was. She said just to met her at the airport; she would get Dave and my things from our rooms. She knew I needed to talk to someone. We left for the airport around 8:30.

"You and John together yet?" he asked me. I nodded.

"Did he do something to you last night?" he asked me. I looked at him.

"I saw you coming out last night and looked very upset." he said.

"My past came back." I told him.

"I am sorry. If you want to talk about it I will listen." he told me as we arrived at the airport. We got out and met Paul and Stephanie. They gave us our things.

"Iris, I wanted to talk to you. Come on." she said to me. We walked over and sat on the benches.

"Are you doing ok?" she asked me.

"Yeah, I will be. I just didn't want to bring John into this." I told her.

"Honey, if he likes you then he will understand you and if you like him then he might want to know so in case you freak out again he won't think it is because of him." she told me.

"Or, Steph, it could drive him away. I just met him and I really like him. I mean he doesn't wrestle anymore. He hasn't come back and he never will." I told her.

"Babe, you still need to tell him." she said. I nodded.

"Steph, Paul doesn't even know." I told her.

"I know, but still you have to face it next time so that next time you don't freak out like you did last night." she said.

"I know. I didn't even sleep last night. The memories came back." I told her.

"You don't have to go out with us tonight. You can just stay in and sleep, if you want to." she said.

"Thanks. I just need your help with one other thing." I said.

"What?" she asked me.

"I want to stay away from John for right now. I will talk to him when I get ready." I told her.

"That is fine, but promise me you will talk to him." she told me. I nodded.

"Now, come on. We can board the plane." she said.

We boarded the plane. John was not on the plane yet. Dave was sitting in a seat.

"Can I sit by ya?" I asked him. He nodded and moved his bag. I was beside the window. I was listening to my ipod and not really paying attention. I didn't even notice that John and Randy had sat behind Dave and I. I laid my head on him and fell asleep before the plane even took off.

"John, I thought you were dating her?" Randy asked.

"We are, but something got to her last night. I don't know what it is. I really want to talk to her." he said.

"So talk to her." Randy told him.

"I will try to tonight. What ever got to her was enough to scare her." John said. Randy nodded. John was watching me as I slept.

"She is beautiful." he whispered. Randy looked at him and smiled.

"You have it bad." he told John.

"What are you talking about?" John asked him.

"How long did you sleep last night?" Randy asked.

"I didn't. I have to know why she is mad at me or what is wrong." John said.

"You already have fallen for her." Randy said smiling.

"Have not! I just really like her." John said. Randy looked at him.

"Fine, I DO really like her. She is beautiful, not like every other girl, doesn't care about her looks, and accepts me for me." he said looking at Iris.

"Then let her know." Randy said. John nodded. Paul had heard the entire conversation. He and Stephanie were sitting across from them.

Dave has to get her to like him and not John. John is NOT going to hurt her. He thought.

The flight lasted another hour. The plane landed and I was still asleep. I was woken up by someone shaking me gently. I opened my eyes to see Dave.

"Come on, sexy, we landed." he said smiling. I stretched and grabbed my bag. We got off the plane and into a limo.

The limo took us to the hotel. Some of the people had appearances that night. Dave was going to be at a Toy's R US. Paul was going to do an interview for the local radio station. John and his cousin were promoting their cd at an autograph singing. We all were checked in.

"Iris!" Stephanie called. I turned to see her coming down the hallway. I waited opened my door and waited. She came up to me.

"Do you want to go out with Paul and I tonight?" she asked me.

"No, you two go have fun. I will be fine." I told her.

"You sure?" she asked me. I nodded.

"Ok, I will talk to you before I leave." she said.

I was so tired. I looked at the clock. The time was three in the afternoon. I laid down to sleep. I was woken up at 4:30 by a knock on my door. I got up and opened the door. I found Randy standing there.

"Hey." he said. I waved.

"Were you asleep?" he asked me.

"Yeah, what did you need?" I asked him.

"I didn't have anything to do tonight, because John is with Trademarc. I know that Dave, Paul, and Stephanie are busy; so I was wondering if you wanted to something. I need to run one errand and then we can go to a movie or grab something to eat." he said.

"Yeah, what time?" I asked him.

"I'll come get you around 6:30." he said.

"Fine, see you in an hour." I told him and shut the door. I was so tired and I really didn't want to go. I started to get ready.
