Chapter 1.
Jessie got up at 7 the next morning. She showered and dressed and made her way to the kitchen area. Carol was already up and dressed. She was sitting at the kitchen table sipping on a cup of coffee. When she saw Jessie come in she got up and walked over to the stove. She got a plate off of it and took it over to the table.
Jessie sat down at Carol's urging and began to eat, once she ate all the food she looked up at Carol. "Ok well go get your bags and we'll go to the bus station. I booked your ticket last night so all we have to do is pick it up" Jessie went and got her bags and brought them downstairs. Carol locked up the house and they made their way to the bus station. On the way to the station Jessie got more and more nervous. In a little more than an hour she would be standing face to face with her father.
Carol pulled up to the station and they got out. Carol helped Jessie in with her bags and went with her up to the ticket booth to get Jessie's ticket. After they got the ticket they went and sat on a bench to wait for the boarding. Carol turned to her and said ''ok last night I wrote out a note for you to give to your dad. It goes into detail and all about what happened and what is going on. You can give him your birth certificate too" Carol saw the slightly panicked look on Jessie's face and took her hand "it'll be ok sweetheart. He'll love you I know it". Before Jessie could reply the announcement for the bus was made. Carol and she made a few goodbyes and Jessie walked over to where the bus was loading. She took a deep breath and climbed aboard, tightly clutching her bags and the note Carol had given her as if the items were a lifeline.
An hour later Jessie had arrived in West Newbury. She was extremely nervous. She got off the bus with the other passengers, lugging her bags with her. Once outside the bus she put her bags down and thought about what she should do. She had John's address in her bag. She decided to go in and ask the clerk at the bus station she was at if he knew how far away the address was because she had to walk to it. She hoped it wasn't far.
"Excuse me sir" she said walking up to the clerk at the front desk of the station "can you possibly tell me how far it is from here to this address" she handed the piece of paper to the man and waited to see what he said.
"Well" the man said "its about 5 miles from here" he said handing back the piece of paper. He told her directions on how to get to the subdivision and she set off for the long walk. She grabbed her bags and the papers and started walking. The sun was shining brightly that day, it made her miserable because she was becoming very hot and her arms and legs were aching from carrying the extra load of bags. All she wanted to do was sit her bags down and take off her shoes. Her feet and hands were aching her really bad. She knew that if she didn't keep walking though that there was a chance that John would not be there, so she kept on trekking.
After about 30 minutes she saw the subdivision where the house was. She felt like crying as she checked the mailboxes for the address, and finally found one that matched the address on the paper. She slowly walked up to the front door, afraid of what would happen once she knocked. She got there and sat her bags down. She raised her hand to knock. It took her several chances but finally she got up the nerve to knock. After about 2 minutes the door opened and Randy Orton was standing in the door way "umm hi" he said eyeing her suspiciously "can I help you". Jessie was too stunned at Randy standing there to say anything coherent. Had she gone to the wrong house?
She simply handed him her birth certificate and the note Carol had written. She watched his face screw up as he read, after a few minutes of staring at the papers Randy leaned inside and yelled "JOHN I THINK YOU NEED TO COME HERE NOW".
After a few seconds John appeared by Randy and Randy handed the papers to him and stood there staring at Jessie with a wide eyed flabberghasted expression. John read over the papers and after he finished he looked at Jessie, "shit" he said simply.
Jessie misjudged his reaction and picked up her bags and said "I thought you'd like to know. I'll leave now sorry to have bothered you". Despite the pain in her limbs, she started walking down the drive way back the way she came. She had gotten about half way down the driveway, when she felt a hand come down on her shoulder. She looked and saw John standing there.
"I can't let you do that. I mean your my kid. Where would you go, what would you do? I know this isn't the most greatest situation kid, but we gotta play the hand we've been delt. Sorry, I don't always sound like a poker dealer, I just don't know what to say" before John could say anything more, Jessie felt the bags slip from her fingers and her legs give out from under her. She started falling to the ground. Before she hit John grabbed her up into his arms. "Babygirl whats wrong? Come on what going on" John had a panicked expression on his face, and if Jessie hadn't been in so much pain, she would have laughed.
"Well, I walked here because I had no money to get a cab and all" Jessie managed to get out. She was trying to focus on other things, but the pain was too much.
"YOU WALKED ALL THE WAY FROM THE TRAIN STATION" John said a bit too loudly. Jessie teared up and nodded her head looking at the ground. She had never liked people yelling at her and it always upset her. John noticed her reaction and immediately apologized "I'm sorry sweetheart I didn't mean to yell I just can't believe you walked all that way. No wonder you're in pain and about to give out from exhaustion. Ok lets get you in and you can take a warm bath that maybe can loosen the muscles, and then when you get out I'll give you a slight muscle relaxer I have and massage your legs and arms" John carried her toward the house and she wondered about her bags, until she saw Randy moving to go get them.
As John carried her in Jessie took a quick survey of the house. It was nice but regular. You wouldn't expect a big WWE superstar to live there in other words. John took her to this one room that was basically bare. It had a bed and dresser. "This will be your room" he said sitting her down on the bed "we'll decorate it later on. Do whatever you want to it. I want you to be comfortable". John made a move to leave the room and turned back "that door right there" he said gesturing to the door off to the side "is to the bathroom, do you need any help getting in. I mean I know you may not want me to see you naked, but I mean I am your dad and all. I will help if you need me to" John was kind of rambling and looked extremely uncomfortable. Jessie smiled a bit. He was trying that was for sure.
"No I think I can make it" Jessie said quietly. She doubted she could make it, but she didn't want to make John uncomfortable by having him carry her naked anywhere. She didn't particularly want to be carried naked anywhere either.
"Ok well if you need anything just yell, either me or Randy will hear you" he walked out of the room leaving Jessie to bathe in peace. She got up and hobbled her way to the door to the bathroom. She hobbled inside and to the tub. She turned on the water and got it as hot as she could stand it. She found a wash cloth and threw it into the tub. She stripped off her clothes and gingerly got in the tub. She sighed as the hot water attacked her sore muscles. It felt really good. She relaxed and slid down into the water.
After relaxing for a while Jessie felt like she could get out of the tub. She got out and found a towel to dry off. She remembered that she didn't have any clothes and figured that she'd have to call for John to come bring her bags to her. She went out of the bathroom and saw that someone had put her bags on the bed. She grabbed an RKO tshirt and pair of John boxers to put on. She didn't know what to do so she just sat on the bed. She was deep in thought when there was a knock on the door. She called for whoever to come in. The door opened and Randy walked in. She took a second to check him out. He had been a crush of hers ever since he had debuted in the WWE. He was wearing a pair of black draw string pants and a black wife beater, he was in sock feet which Jessie thought was so cute. He was carrying a coke and had something in his other hand.
"I brought you those muscle relaxers John told you about. Also if you don't mind, I'll be the one to do your rubdown. John would, but he's on the phone to the WWE higher ups telling them about you. He has this big goofy smile on his face. He's a proud papa" Jessie smiled knowing that John was alright with her. She took the coke and pill from Randy and downed it. She looked at Randy questioningly afterward. She wasn't sure what he wanted her to do.
"Just lie back and let me do the work" he said giving her the patented Randy Orton Lady Killer smirk. She did just that. He started at her feet. It felt really nice. He definitely knew what he was doing. She was relaxing. It was probably a mixture of the pills and the massage but she fell asleep before Randy even got to her knee.
