A/N: I only own the people you do not recognize as wrestlers. Thanks for the reviews and for reading the story. Let me know if you have any suggestions. Enjoy!
The mood of the next day was the same as it was the night before. Everyone was in shock that it had happened and no one wanted to face it. Anna ate breakfast with the guys and no one talked.
The service was held that day. The king was very sad and Anna stayed beside Dave all day. Everyone wished she had not killed herself. Dave was upset, but also upset because he had accused Anna.
The funeral procession went all the way through London and ended a few hours after it had started. Dave and Randy stayed with their father for the entire procession. Anna rode with John in a carriage. Everyone was upset and very respectful as it went through the city.
After the funeral, everyone went back to the palace. No one wanted to go back, but they had to. King William and John had to discuss more matters between the two countries. Dave and Paul were going to sit in on the meeting.
Anna was walking around the palace trying to get away from everything, but she could not escape the fact that her best friend was gone. She had no one to talk to and no one to understand what she is going through. She just walked outside and was looking around.
"Will you ride around with me?" Randy asked her as he walked up.
"Yes." she said. Randy knew she was upset.
They rode off together into the countryside. They stopped at the pond and got off. Anna was on the river bank and Randy joined her.
"Are you alright?" he asked her.
"I will be. I am not at the moment. How are you holding up?" she asked him.
"I will be fine. I will miss her, terribly, but I will be fine." he said. He looked at Anna and saw tears rolling down her face.
Randy leaned over and wiped the tears away.
"Anna, it will be alright." he said and scooted over next to her.
"I have no one who I can talk to and truly understand what I am going though." she said. Randy knew what she meant.
"I know and I am sorry." he whispered to her. She looked at him. He was lost in her eyes and kissed her. She surprisingly kissed him back. Randy wrapped his arms around her and pulled her closer. They were lost in the kiss when they heard a rider coming closer. Randy pulled away to see Paul standing there. Anna just sighed and buried her head in her knees. She wanted to disappear.
"Anna, come with me." he said. She got up with tears running down her face and left with him.
"Anna!" Randy called after her. She turned the horse to look at him.
"I am sorry." he said. She nodded and gave him a half smile before riding off with Paul.
Paul was riding with Anna and he slowed down when they approached the castle.
"Do you want to explain what I saw back there?" he asked her.
"We kissed." she mumbled.
"I am not going to tell Dave, but while in France you need to think about which one you like more." he said. She nodded and they arrived at the palace. Anna was taken, by Paul, to see Dave.
"Yes?" she asked him as she walked in.
"I wanted to make sure you were alright with everything before heading to Paris tomorrow." he said. Anna nodded.
"The servants packed my trunk. I know that Randy is going with me and that I will be there a month." she said. Dave nodded.
"Are you alright with going, now?" he asked her.
"I was always alright with going. I was going because my king asked me to, not because you asked me to." she told him. He knew she was still a little upset with him.
"Anna, I am sorry about accusing you. I did not mean to." he said.
"Then why did you say it?" she asked him.
"I did not want to accept that she had killed herself and was actually gone." he whispered.
"Fine." she said and walked to the door.
"Wait." Dave said as he walked to her. She turned to look at him.
"I want to know if you will stay with me on the balcony for a few moments?" he asked her. She reluctantly agreed.
"Anna, I wanted you to think about something while you are in France. I want you to think about coming back here and taking your place as queen." he said. She nodded. She knew it would happen, but was not ready for it.
" I will discuss it with my father while in France and then have you answer upon my return or I will send it to you while I am in France." she said. He nodded.
"I hope that you will consider it with your whole heart. I would like to have you as my bride." he said and caressed her face. She just looked at him.
"I will consider it, but I cannot answer you anymore for the moment. I want to discuss it with my father." she said. Dave nodded.
"I will accept that for the time being." he said. Anna was watching the sun set beyond the horizon and the clouds start to move in.
"It is beautiful." she whispered.
"Not as beautiful as you." he whispered in her ear. She turned to look into his eyes and was surprised by a kiss. He pulled her close and she had her hands pressed against his chest. She pushed him away and ran off. She was so confused.
