I Need You Tonight
Chapter 32..
Her..
It was four days later and both Natalie and Paul had to get back to their jobs. Natalie would be leaving her job in a month for maternity leave. As soon as they got to the arena, they both went their separate ways.
Natalie went to see the person with all the answers to every single one of her questions, Randy. She just had to find him. Well, she found him five minutes later, with Stacy in catering.
"Umm, Stacy..can I borrow Randy for a few minutes?" Natalie said walking over to the table.
"Sure, Natalie. I was just leaving. See ya later Randy."
"Yep, bye Stacy." Randy said getting up. "Nice to see ya, Shorty."
"Yeah, whatever. Come to my office."
--in her office---
"What's with her?"
"Who?"
"Stacy, she answered your phone when I called you, while you were in the shower."
"So. You called at a bad time. She wanted to go shopping, and she came early."
"You just have a smart-ass excuse for everything."
"It's not a smart-ass excuse, it's the truth."
"So are you two, like a …"
"Couple?" Randy asked while Natalie nodded her head. "No, we're just friends. What are you jealous?"
"Shut up."
"Natalie, c'mon, give me a break. You're married, and you have the right telling me who and who not to date."
"I'm not telling you who and who not to date."
"The hell you aren't. You're so jealous that Stacy was with me."
"So what if I was?"
"Well that's too damn bad, because she's one of my friends, and I'm going to hang out with her."
"Fine, see if I care."
"You do and I know it."
"Fine, what do you want me to admit?"
"I don't want you to admit anything, because I just found out what an asshole you are. You know you can't have me and Paul both, and you know you'd stay with Paul just to protect your ass."
"I was protecting yours too."
"What, don't you think I can solve my own problems?"
"Randy, excuse me for caring, you little prick. I can't believe you called you're baby's mother an asshole."
"How the hell do I even know that its mine?" Randy said. Natalie just stood there with her mouth open, appalled that he would say something like this to her, so she slapped him.
"Get the fuck out of here, and never ever talk or even look at me again."
"Whatever." Randy said storming out of her office. Natalie just slumped in her desk crying.
--twenty minutes later--
Natalie had cleaned herself up, and Paul had informed her that Evolution was going out clubbing tonight.
--at the club--
All of Evolution, Nikki, Natalie and now, Stacy had entered the club, and was moved ASAP to the VIP section.
"Baby, what do you want?" Paul asked Natalie.
"Just a coke." Natalie answered.
"Alright, I'll be back."
"Natalie, are you okay?" Nikki asked concerned for her best friend.
Natalie put on the fakest smile, and replied, "Yeah, I'm fine, why?"
"You're just acting bizarre."
"Umm..I'm okay." Natalie said as Randy gave her a stare, and then Paul came back to the table.
"Here ya go, baby."
"Thanks, Paul."
--five minutes later---
"Natalie, can I talk to you privately?"
"Sure, let's go the rest room."
"What the hell is going on?"
"It's Randy."
"It's what I figured."
"I hollered at him b/c of Stacy and then he lands into me, and accuses me of the baby possibly not being his. It's just horrible. We're not talking, he hates me. I just don't know anymore."
"Natalie, calm down. You're crying again. You just got to move on, sad but true. Live your life with Paul instead of this double life you have been portraying."
"I guess you're right. I don't want to give up on Randy, I love him too much."
"Well Natalie, God doesn't let us choose who we want to fall in love with, and unfortunately you fell in love with someone other than your husband."
"What am I supposed to do?"
"Move on."
