Chapter 13.

Jessie sat in the back of the car as usual. They were on their way to the ER so she could get checked out. John was driving and Randy was riding shot gun. He had tried to get Jessie to ride shot gun but she wouldn't. Mark and Maven stayed at the house because they said this was a family thing. Jessie didn't get that but didn't care much. Her thoughts had been back on Josh. She knew that he was in jail and that he couldn't hurt her anymore but she couldn't help but feel like something was going to go wrong. Randy led Jessie into the emergency room, while John went over to the nurses desk to register her.

"Can I help you sir?" a slightly middle aged woman asked, looking up at John through the top of her glasses.

"Yes, my daughter was attacked tonight, and she needs to see a doctor" John said, choking on the word 'attacked.' Mentally vowing to kill the bastard who had hurt his babygirl.

"Okay, I just need you to fill out these forms, and a doctor will be with you shortly" she replied, handing John some papers and a clipboard and pen. John took what the nurse gave him, and walked over to where Randy was sitting with Jessie, who looked like she was in some sort of traumatic trance.

"Babygirl, the doctor will help you in a few minutes. First we need to fill out these papers" John said, looking over at Jessie. When he saw the tears in her big blue eyes, he wanted to break down right there. He knew however, that he had to remain strong for her, and not show any weakness. His mind was still telling him that he was a bad father for leaving, and letting his daughter be hurt in such a way.

About 10 minutes after John, with some help from Jessie, finished filling out the papers, a nurse came out, and led her back to a room.

"Daddy, I don't want to go back without you" Jessie cried, almost launching herself into his lap again.

"Sweetie, you don't have to. Daddy is going to be right here with you the whole time. I promise, nothing bad will happen to you ever again" John whispered in her ear, as he picked Jessie up, and carried her back. Randy said he would call Mark and Maven to let them know what was going on, and then he'd be on back.

back in the room

"Mr. Cena, hi I'm Dr. Walters. What seems to be the problem tonight?" the doctor asked, after she stepped around through the closed curtain.

"My daughter, Jessie was attacked tonight. I brought her in to be checked out" John explained, while Jessie had a death grip on his hand. Right after John told her why they were in there, Randy came around the curtain.

"Hey sweetheart. Mark and Maven said to tell you they love you" Randy said, walking over on the other side of Jessie and kissing her forehead. Jessie could only nod, knowing that she would break down, if she had to talk.

"Alright, well Jessie, I need to ask you a few questions. Do you want your dad and..." Dr. Walters trailed off, not having a clue as to who Randy was.

"My name is Randy. I'm like her older brother, I was the one that walked in on..." Randy started, but couldn't finish, as it was still too much to bear.

"Okay, well Jessie. Do you want them to stay while I ask you some questions? Or would you rather I have them step outside?" She finished asking, once Randy stopped talking.

"I want them to stay. Please don't make them leave." Jessie begged, as the tears clouded her eyes once again.

"It's alright honey. They can stay, I just wanted to make sure it was okay with you. Well, first of all, your dad says you were attacked tonight. Was it just a physical attack? Or was it sexual too?" She asked, causing Jessie's chin to tremble again.

"No, it didn't get that far. Randy came in, and saw what was happening and stopped it.." Jessie answered, knowing in her heart that she needed to tell the doctor what had happened a couple days prior, but was still too afraid to say anything.

"Alright, well, let me get a look at your bruises. Is there any part that hurts more than the other?" Dr. Walters questioned, as she walked around to stand on the other side of Randy.

"My back is really sore. He shoved me into the door." Jessie replied, as Dr. Walters opened the back of her gown up to look at her back. When she did this, a confused look crossed her face.

"Jessie, was tonight the first time you were attacked?" Dr. Walters asked, and Jessie could feel her heart drop, as she felt both her dad and Randy's eyes on her.

"No" was the answer, that came out no more than a whisper.

"When was the first attack?" Dr. Walters questioned further, knowing there was more to this, then Jessie was letting on.

"A couple of days ago, at the mall" was the only answer Jessie would divulge.

"Babygirl, what happened?" John asked, causing Jessie to turn and look up at him. Deciding that it was pretty much now or never, Jessie told of everything that led up to her being raped in the men's room of the mall.

"I didn't know that he was going to do that to me. He seemed so sweet that night when he bumped into me. I told him no daddy. I said I wasn't ready for this, but he just kept saying he didn't care if I was ready or not. That I was going to do this, cause he needed it. He shoved me into the door of the stall, and then he raped me. After he was done, he kissed me on the forehead, told me thanks, and then he left" Jessie was sobbing uncontrollably at this point. Neither John nor Randy could hide their own tears, as she recounted this horrific ordeal. Not being able to stand to see her cry, John grabbed her up in his arms, and tried to comfort her as best he could.

"I'm going to go get a rape kit. I'll let you guys have a few minutes to calm down" Dr. Walters said quietly, before heading out of the cubical.

"Babygirl, why didn't you tell me?" John asked, still trying to calm Jessie down.

"I was afraid you'd hate me. I mean, I let some guy take advantage of me. That, and I lied to you about everything" Jessie told him, her eyes still sheding the pool of tears that laid within them.

"Jessie, we could never hate you. You told him no, and the bastard didn't listen. That is not your fault, please don't think that it is, cause it's not" John told her, as Dr. Walters came back in.

"Okay, I'll do this exam, and then send the information to the police department. Unfortunately, it's too late to give her the morning after pill. It has to be taken within the first 3 days after the rape" she said, getting the stuff ready for the exam. "Now Jessie, I'll ask you again, do you still want your dad and Randy to be in here with you? They can stay, but it's up to you?" She asked, looking up at Jessie.

"Yeah" Jessie mumbled, more worried then ever at the possibility of ending up pregnant from him.

By the time the exam was done, both John and Randy were pissed off and ready to kill. However, neither one let their feelings show, and masked everything up around Jessie. Right now, making sure she was taken care of was at the top of everyones list.

"Sweetie, Dr. Walters is getting your release forms now. We'll be heading home in about 10 minutes. Do you need some help getting your clothes back on?" John asked, the pain showing in the eyes that mirrored Jessie's.

"No, I'll be okay." Jessie replied, gently climbing out of the bed, and slipping on her track pants and John's shirt that she had on when she came into the hospital. "Where's Randy?" She asked, once she got settled back onto the bed again.

"He's outside in the waiting room, he'll pull the car around for us when we get out there" John answered, sitting next to his little girl on the bed, and pulling her into his embrace. "Sweetie, I'm so sorry I wasn't able to protect you. I should have known something was wrong when you came back from the bathroom that day, and the way you freaked out over Tom and Jerry had nothing to do with your mom did it?" He asked, running his hand through her hair.

"No, but I just couldn't tell you. I wanted too, but I was embarassed.." Jessie answered, when a nurse came in and told them they could leave as soon as John signed the papers. John signed the papers and grabbed Jessie's hand as they made their way out.

Home
Randy's thoughts
'I should have known something was up' Randy thought to himself as he paced around his room. They had retired to their rooms as soon as they got home but Randy found himself unable to sleep. 'Why didn't I know what was going on. Why didn't I pay closer attention'. Randy sat on his bed and put his head in his hands. 'If only I hadn't been showing off to the girls in the gym I could have went with her and waited outside the door. It never would have happened had I not been thinking with my dick'. Randy sighed and laid on his bed he was trying to drift off when his cellphone rang quietly. He grabbed the phone before P.I.M.P woke up the entire house. He looked at the caller ID and saw that it was Kennedy, his girlfriend.

"Hello" he said quietly. His mind wasn't on the conversation and he was drifting.

"Oh hey baby I thought I'd call you before I went to bed. Oh baby I saw these really cute earrings in the mall today I really would love to have; will you buy them for me, oh and there was this cute top that would look great on me and I'm kinda running out of make up do you think you can get me that too oh and there was this.." Randy got up off the bed and cut her off before she could go any farther.

Kennedy Olivia" he said barely controlling his anger "do you love me for me or for my money? Wait no
don't answer that I already know. All I have ever done for you is max out my credit cards. Hell I fucking bought you a house damn it. You know what its over I want a girl I can love and that will love ME and not my BANK ACCOUNT. Get your shit out of my apartment cause when I get back there if there's anything of yours still there I will burn it. No I'll give it to good will" Randy smirked as he finished knowing what Kennedy's reaction would be.

"Randy no! Baby you know I love you I just love shopping and since I don't have a lot of money I use..." Randy cut her off again.

"Shut the hell up Kennedy I am sick of your lies. It's over you have no more Randy Orton to parade around as your boy toy trophy to all your high and mighty social circle and no more Randy Orton's bank account to buy anything and everything with. Let me leave you with a word of advice hun, budgeting...grab a dictionary and look it up cause you'll have to apply it to your everyday life from now on. Hope you like Big Macs cause you won't be eating Olive Garden and Chez Paris anymore" and with that Randy hung up the phone and turned it off so he wouldn't be disturbed anymore.

John's Thoughts
'Why didn't I see the signs' John thought to himself as he paced his room quietly. Jessie had asked to sleep with him that night and she was currently snuggled up in his bed. 'I'm a bad father' John thought as he got in bed. Jessie snuggled up to him and he held her close and kissed her forehead "I'll never let you down again" John said as he drifted off to a fitful sleep.

Mark's Thoughts
Mark lay awake in his bed unable to sleep, his mind had been on Jessie all night. Randy had called earlier with an update on how the doctor visit had gone but it did little to settle his mind. His heart went out to the little girl. No one should have to go through what she did. Mark vowed to himself that if Jessie ever needed him he would be there for her. With that he turned off the lamp and went to sleep.

Maven's Thoughts
Maven lay in his beb snoring heavily and moving around alot. His thoughts were comprised of him, Halle Berry, and Jennifer Lopez locked in a room with only a bed in it. He had been just as worried about Jessie earlier as everyone but since he knew she was alright mostly he let his mind ease. With one final snort and movement he settled in one spot for the night.

The next morning Jessie woke up to a lot of voices downstairs. She got up out of bed and went to her room and showered and dressed. Once she was finished she went downstairs to see what was going on for the day.

When she got there she saw Randy, Mark, and Maven all with bags beside them talking and John talking with them while leaning against the wall.

"What's going on" she asked once she reached the bottom of the stairs. All of the guys looked at her and smiled. Randy came over to her and hugged her.

"Well sweetie I need to go home for a bit, needa make sure some things have been removed" Jessie noticed Randy's eyes darked a second when he said this before returning to normal "and pay some bills then I go back to work for a week or so but I'll be back before ya know it. Oh and if you need me here's my cell and home phone numbers" he handed her a small business card and Jessie almost laughed at the fact that Randy actually had business cards with his numbers on them.

"I'll miss you" Jessie told Randy as she hugged him close to her. What she really wanted to do was wrap herself tightly around him and scream 'NO YOU CAN'T GO DON'T GO PLEASE' at the top of her lungs but she figured that wouldn't go on to well.

"I'll miss you too sweetie but you always know where I am and you know I'll be there for you if you need me plus I swear it'll fly by" Randy said turning away to let Mark come over, Jessie thought she saw tears but wasn't sure.

"Yeah and Maven and I have to get back to work too but here is our information if you need us. I personally will be on a plane faster than you can spell x-linked alphathalassemia" Jessie looked oddly at Mark but hugged him and took the paper none the less.Maven said a quick good bye and hugged Jessie and the three men left. John came over and hugged Jessie.

"Feel ok babygirl" Jessie nodded and hugged John back tightly "easy babygirl the old body ain't what it used to be" John joked "I have some food for you in the oven staying warm we got up kinda early today so".

Jessie thought she'd lighten the mood a bit "as long as your the one to take it out of the oven last time didn't bode to well for me" Jessie said holding up her bandaged hand.

"So that's how you got that" John said "I wasn't sure if it was from..."he trailed off not wanting to bring up the Josh situation.

"No Josh didn't do this" Jessie said solemnly "your oven did though, you know I'm thinking of suing too I think that oven has it in for me" she couldn't help but joke, it was in her nature and she couldn't stand sadness.

John laughed and swatted Jessie gently on the head before leading her into the kitchen so she could eat.

"So ok this one time Randy and I were eating at Waffle House and there were these two girls there. So we got outside and these girls come running out. Well Randy being, well Randy, decides to flirt with them even though we were on our way to the next town and needed to get going. Well I'm standing there being nice to them but thinking 'God we need to go' and this officer comes over and whispers to me 'You need to leave I'm keeping my eye on these two, they're prostitutes oh and by the way they're drag queens'. Well needless to say I wanted to get out of there real quick so I pulled Randy away and in the car all I hear is 'DUDE WHY'D YOU DO THAT I COULDA SCORED' and I wanted to tell him a different way but I couldn't so I just blurted out 'dude they were prostitutes and dudes to boot' well needless to say he shut up real quick" John couldn't say anymore he was rolling in laughter. Jessie was sitting across from him wide eyed and open mouthed, all of a sudden she busted out laughing too and father and daughter spent a few minutes laughing over the story."Alright babygirl why don't you go find something to watch and I'mma go to the bathroom real quick and I'll join you ok" Jessie nodded and went to the living room to look through the movies. Not finding anything she liked she went upstairs to look through the ones she got at the mall. She decided on the O.C season 1 and season 2 dvd sets. One of her moms friends had been talking about it the last few times she had visited and Jessie always thought it sounded like a good show. She took the boxed set down to the living room. John was sitting on the couch, he had taken his shirt off and looked up at her as she came back down "hey I was wondering where you had been, I was getting a bit nervous" he said it in a joking tone but Jessie knew he wasn't joking much. She laughed a bit and showed him what she picked.

"Oh Lord is this one of those girly shows that all it is is drama and crap" John grumbled. Jessie nodded and smiled as John told her to put it in as he went and popped some popcorn. She went over to the DVD player and tried to figure it out. She had just gotten it to work as John came back with the popcorn and a few root beers. "Figured I'd go for a change of pace" he said gesturing to the root beer "oh and hope you don't mind about me having my shirt off I got a bit hot its like 90 degrees out today" Jessie shook her head as she sat beside John and took a rootbeer. She opened it and took a gulp. Before long both John and Jessie were engrossed in the dvd."Woah ok so why isn't that little dude fighting back? Man he needs to get up and defend himself" John said as Seth let the bullies beat up on him. Ryan came across them and helped Seth out but the bullies proved to be too much.

Season one ended and John got up and hurriedly put in season two. They started watching and
were engrossed again. Soon it got to episode twenty one. The episode started with a dark theme. Marissa stopped by Trey's to celebrate the fact that he got a job at the Bait Shop, they drink some margarita's and get a bit tipsy. Well Marissa decided to go outside to get some fresh air. Trey joined her, but not before doing a line of cocaine. He tells Marissa he's greatful for everything he has then he howls like a coyote. He tells Marissa he feels like he can do anything when he's with her. Marissa gets uncomfortable and tries to go back to the house but Trey grabs her and kisses her. He asks her if she feels like she's too good for him. She finally gets away from him and hits him on the head with a piece of wood and runs off. John looked at Jessie after this scene and saw that she had tears running down her face. He pulled her to him and rubbed her back.

"Why daddy? Why?" she asked.

"I dunno babygirl I dunno" John said feeling guilty that he couldn't help more. Jessie all of a sudden pulled away from him and stood up pacing the room. She was still crying and looked deep in thought "he hurt me" she said quietly "he took my trust and shoved it down my throat. He took my pride. He took something of mine that I can never get back. HE BROKE ME! HE HURT ME! WHY! WHY! I have to live with what he did every day. I have to feel the pain, the shame, I have to deal with the dreams and the bruises and the thoughts." Jessie picked up the rootbeer bottle she had been drinking out of and threw it against the wall with a blood curdling scream. Once she saw it shatter into a million pieces she slumped on the floor screaming and sobbing all her pain away.

John who had been sitting on the couch shocked at her outburst quickly got up and wrapped his arms around her. She had quit screaming but was still sobbing all the hurt and pain away. It took a while but Jessie finally got her tears under control.

"I got an idea" John said "why don't we go to mom and dad's and have a sleep over. I'll call the bros and Marc and we'll just chill for the next few days. I already told them what happened to you so don't worry about that so what do you say" John looked at her for her answer.

"Will you teach me how to swim this time" Jessie said smiling cheekily. John laughed loudly and kissed her cheek.

"You got it babe I'll even enlist my bros and Marc to help" John got up and helped Jessie up too. She looked at him and gave him an innocent angel like look.

"Do you do anything with out they're help or do you like share a brain or something" Jessie took off for the stairs when she said this, John took a second to let what she said pass through his brain then he took off after her. He caught her right before she could get into her room and slung her over his shoulder. He took her over to the bed and gently swung her on it, he got on top of her and tickled her mercilessly. She laughed and begged for mercy.

"Who's your favorite wrestler?" John asked as he tickled Jessie.

"Ma--Mar--Mark" Jessie studdered out in laughter. John screamed no and tickled harder. Jessie screamed in laughter and struggled to get away.

"Who?" John asked again.

"JBL" Jessie said still laughing at John's tickling. John stopped laughing and looked at her shocked.

"Oh that's just wrong" John said before grabbing her up over his shoulder again. He took her toward the bathroom. Jessie was a bit confused and nervous about what he was gonna do. He turned the shower on and dropped her gently in it. He closed the door to it and wouldn't let her out. She screamed as the cold water pelted down on her, making her cold.

"Who's your favorite wrestler?" John called over her screaming and the water. Jessie got quiet.

"It's you" she ground out through clenched teeth playfully, she would have said anything to get out of the shower. John smiled and opened the door. He turned to walk out of the bathroom. As soon as he had stepped out into the main room Jessie tackled him to the ground. They wrestled around a bit, John noticing that Jessie was deceptively strong for her size and that she was actually giving him a run for his money. Finally Jessie got the upper hand and had John on his back as she sat on his stomach. She held his hands above his hands as they both panted out of breath.

"You got me wet" John said indignantly once he got his breathing regulated. Jessie smiled an innocent smile and replied.

"I wasn't the one who threw they're little angel in the COLD shower" John rolled his eyes and scoffed.

"Angel my WWE title" John said in fake disdain. Jessie smiled brightly at him.

"Hey since I've had your shoulder's pinned down does this mean that I'm the new WWE champ" Jessie asked with a giggle. John rolled his eyes and gently bucked her off and covered her, tapping the floor 3 times.

"Nope" he said smiling at her "now pack a bag and we'll leave" John got up and walked out. Jessie noticed that the white jean shorts he had on were wet and she saw a spot of leopard print briefs peeking through. She bit her cheek to keep from laughing. She then set about packing all that she thought she'd need. Once she had all she needed packed she grabbed the bags and took them toward the stairs.

She knew there was no way she would be able to drag the bags down the stairs so she just let them roll down. She knew there was nothing breakable in them so she wasn't nervous about them crashing to the floor. She heard John running from the kitchen. He looked and saw the bags laying at the bottom of the stairs and then looked up at Jessie "I thought that was you" he said simply before walking back to the kitchen. Jessie smiled and walked calmly down the stairs.

"Yeah mom the princess and I are coming over tonight" Jessie heard John say as she stepped into the kitchen "yeah that is if she has no more problems with her big heavy bags" John said with sarcasm in his voice, he smiled at Jessie to let her know he was kidding.

'Leopard print' she mouthed at him while getting a soda out of the fridge. John's mouth widened and he turned a deep crimson color. Jessie laughed and left the kitchen. She settled down on the couch watching an old episode of I Love Lucy.

"They were a gift from Randy, a gag gift he gave me on my birthday" John said coming back from the kitchen, Jessie took pleasure in the fact that he was still red in the face. She smirked at him and watched as he went to pick up his and her bags from where they were.

"Doesn't mean you have to wear them though" Jessie said smirking. John dropped the bags and turned toward Jessie, a fake stern look on his face.

"Oh go get in the car smart aleck" and with that he picked the bags back up. Jessie walked outside and threw a parting shot at John.

"I got it from somewhere, think about that" and she left it at that and went to the car. John laughed a bit and sat the bags on the porch while he locked up the house.

"Now I know a small bit of what my mom and dad went through" John muttered to himself as he picked the bags back up and carried them to the car. He noticed Jessie in the backseat and said "babygirl you don't have to sit in the backseat, its just you and me".

"Oh yea" Jessie said getting out and getting in the drivers seat. John laughed and put the bags in the trunk. He wanted to have a little fun with Jessie. He kept his expression neutral as he got in the passenger seat. He took his keys out of his pocket and handed them to Jessie. She stared at the keys in her hand in shock "what do you want me to do with these?" she asked dumbly.

"Well your in the driver seat I figured you'd want the keys so you could drive" John said with a 'duh' tone to his voice. Inside he was about to bust out laughing but his years in the WWE helped him to keep his game face on.

"I'm 14 I can't drive yet" Jessie said practically yelling. John shrugged and put the key in the ignition and started the car.

"Gotta learn sometime" he said "besides its all backroads from here to there no one will see. Now put your foot on the brake and put the car in reverse" John started this out as a joke but he figured it was probably not a bad idea to start Jessie on a few driving lessons early that way she wouldn't have to wait as long to get her permit and then her license.
