A/N: I only own Iris. Please review. I am going to start a sequel after this chapter. The title of the sequel will be: Late? I will post the first chapter of it tomorrow or Friday. Review and let me know what you think.

Iris POV

I got home from taking John home. I walked into an empty house. The feeling was weird and lonely at the same time. I walked into my room and sat on the bed. I began to cry. I was crying for many reasons.

I was crying because I missed John, I lost Dave, and I had given up the things I loved the most. I was happy to have a break, but I was rethinking it. I could travel because I didn't want to be the reason the Dave, John, Randy, and anyone else to loose their job.

I fell asleep while I was crying and slept through the night. I woke up to a dreary day. I decided to clean my house because we had to move everything out of Mom & Dad's house.

I was cleaning when I got to my nightstand. I opened it and found a box with a note. I recognized the handwriting as Dave's. I opened the note and read it.

Iris,

Paul gave me this thinking that one day I would give it to you when I proposed. I guess that is never going to happen now. You chose your friends over me and I want a girl who will chose me first. Maybe one day we can chose each other again, but until then enjoy it. I hope you think of me and miss me every time you see it. I loved you.

Your Animal,

Dave

I sat on the bed and opened the box. My mothers antique diamond ring. I just stared at it. I thought Paul would give it to Stephanie. I read the note one last time and put it in the ring box. I sat it in the drawer of my clothes chest.

Obviously it wasn't meant to be if he just LOVED me. I thought as I finished cleaning. I finished around dinner time. I was heading to Paul's for dinner.

I got to Paul's and walked in. I picked up one of the twins and held him. They were so cute, already. I was playing with him until they fell asleep and we ate dinner.

"How are you?" Stephanie asked me. Paul wanted to know.

"I am… here." I said. Stephanie gave me a small smile.

"You'll find someone better." Paul said.

"Whatever, aren't you the one who wanted me to date him?" I asked him, smiling.

"I am not perfect." he said.

"Not even close." Stephanie said. I laughed.

"How are you doing?" I asked her.

"I am good. I love them so much." she said. Paul kissed her forehead. I was jealous of what they had; I wanted that. I just had to find it.

"What are you going to do now?" Paul asked me. I shrugged.

"Go to law school and write for Vince." I said.

"Really?" Stephanie asked me.

"Yeah, I think I might go to law school." I said.

"Any ideas as to where?" Paul asked me.

"Um, nope, haven't gotten that far." I said. Stephanie laughed at me.

"You'll find some place. When you going to start?" Paul asked me.

"August." I said.

"Happy Birthday to you." Paul said. I smiled at him.

I talked a little longer until Stephanie had to feed the twins.

Paul and I were sitting in the living room.

"Are you really ok?" he asked me.

"I will be. I am just tired of being heartbroken." I said.

"I understand, but believe me you WILL find someone. Or you will realize who you have lost." he said. I looked at him.

"Iris, I think maybe you had the love of your life from the beginning and I am sorry that I pushed you away from him." Paul said.

"John?" I asked. He nodded. I shrugged.

"I am taking a break from guys for a while." I said.

"If that is what you want." he said.

"It is. Oh, do you want Mom's ring to give Steph?" I asked him. He shook his head no.

"You keep it." he said.

I talked to Paul for a little longer and then went home.

I was so ready for a change and I decided that I was going to go to law school. I wasn't just going to go to law school; I was going to go to a school out of the country.

I couldn't wait for a new chance at school and a new chapter in life.

A/N: Look for the sequel, but review and give me suggestion on things you want to appear in the sequel. Iris might be with John or she could be with any other wrestler. Let me know. Thanks for all the reviews on this story, and I hope you will read the sequel. Thanks, Yankees01.
