Author's note: Well here it comes chapter three and I hope you like the way the story is going. Oh and just for the record: Shawn's not married or has other children in this story

Quick word to my reviewers: First of all, thanks for the reviews, I love ya all...

Perfect Imperfections: Glad you like the twist... and more to read is already here... thanks to you for the review

JCEdgeRKO: It's gonna be a surprise what happens when she finds out... can't tell you or it would ruin the story

Mizz Molko: Well the relationship thing has been done before and I liked that idea better... I hope you like the way this turns out

huntersgirl: I'm glad that I managed to surprise you since that was my intention...

Adalyn: Glad you liked the story so far... well as I said in my second chapter I can't tell you if she will get her eyesight back because it would ruin the story

Zanderlover: Well I at first intended to do the storyline with the bad relationship with another wrestler but then this idea came to my mind and I liked it better... and other authors that are way better writers than me have already done the one with the bad relationship I like Chris a lot so he will play a big part in the story... and well for Randy... I've seen his very first match and have been fascinated since then... so that's why Alexi and Randy will have a relationship... but who says that Chris won't get one too

Stephie: You don't have to wait anymore... here comes more. Hope you like it...

Oh yeah: Something in italics is still thoughts

Disclaimer: Nothing in this story besides Marissa and Alexandria belongs to me... even though I wouldn't push away Randy...

Chapter 3: No Fairytale
"He's her father..." Chris words made Batista stop dead in his tracks. For a moment he thought he'd misheard Chris but when he saw the look on Y2J's face he knew that Chris was deadly serious.

"Shawn's her father?" He asked, his voice louder than he had intended.

"Shh... god Dave... I don't want anybody to hear, so please keep your voice down..." Chris said angrily.

"Sorry..." The Animal sighed, his voice much quieter than before.

"But Chris... I never even knew that HBK had a daughter." Batista said with a raised eyebrow.

"He doesn't know himself either..." Jericho said shortly.

"Okay... now I'm totally confused." Batista admitted.

"How can he not know that he has a daughter?" He wanted to know.

"It's a long story..." Chris started.

"I've always liked long stories..." Batista joked, trying to lighten Jericho's mood a little.

Indeed a small smile appeared on Jericho's face.

"Unfortunately it's not a happy fairytale but a rather sad story."

Batista had already guessed that but decided against telling Chris and waited for the blonde to continue.

Chris knew that he had to so he started:
"Telling you in detail would take too long so I'll give you the short version with the most important details. Well Shawn was 17 when Marissa, Alexi's mother got pregnant. She was 16 at that time. They both thought that they were too young to have children and since Shawn had his promising wrestling career ahead of him, this was another reason for him not to have children. So they decided to have an abortion. Well, actually Shawn's manager and Marissa's father decided to have one... They left Marissa and Shawn no choice... but the two didn't really object either, afraid that they couldn't take care of the child..."

Chris stopped for a second, trying to calm himself down.

"... well when the appointment for the abortion arrived, Alexi's mother just couldn't get through with it and decided to have the baby. She worked things out with her father and he let her keep the baby. Marissa told the manager that she had kept the baby. She, however, told Shawn through his manager that she had had the abortion because she didn't want Shawn to think that she had kept the baby just because she didn't want him to leave her. And Marissa didn't want to hold him back since it has always been Shawn's dream to become a professional wrestler. Shawn's manager wouldn't let her talk to HBK, telling her that Shawn didn't want to talk to her. Then he broke up with her in Shawn's name. He told her that Shawn thought it was better for his career not to have a girlfriend… with or without child. That was the last Marissa heard of Shawn and as far as I know Marissa never ever spoke to Shawn again and never told him that she actually had the child... The next time she heard of him was when he made his wrestling debut."

Batista had listened quietly, but now he spoke up: "But why does Alexi hate Shawn then? It's not his fault... well at least not entirely his fault."

Jericho sighed again.

"Well Alexi doesn't know the whole story. Her mother never had the heart to tell her that they didn't want her at first. So the part of the whole story Alexi knows is that Shawn left because of his wrestling career. I guess it was easier to change the truth a little and to tell Alexi that Shawn didn't want her than to tell her that she wasn't wanted by both her parents in the beginning... so Alexi blames the wrestling for taking away her father."

Batista looked shocked.

"Poor Alexi...but since you know the whole story, why don't you tell her the truth? I mean Shawn has a right to know that he has a daughter and Alexandria has a right to know the whole truth."

"Well, her mother told me, but she made me promise not to tell Alexandria. I guess she wants to protect her because she fears Shawn might hurt Alexi like he had hurt Marissa. That's actually the fact that makes me angry all the time. I mean Shawn always told Marissa that he loved her and that he would marry her as soon as he had made it big in the wrestling business but then he doesn't even have toe guts to tell her in person that it's over. He just left because his manager wanted him to. He never even thought about protesting against him or calling Marissa to just ask how she was.

Marissa told me that if he had called she would have told him about Alexi... You have to know that Marissa still loves Shawn. She watches every show he is on and most of the time she's crying. That's another reason why Alexandria doesn't like Shawn. She hates that he makes her mother cry." Jericho finished.
Batista tried to process everything Chris had just told him. He had the feeling that there was something else Chris hadn't told him but he decided against asking and just shook his head.

"That's a really complicated story. But why has Marissa told Alexi who her father is and what had happened?"
"You can say that it's a complicated story. Well Alexi one day found the photographs of Marissa and Shawn and of course she started to ask questions. Marissa always told her that the man in the picture was her father and that he left because he had to. When she was younger, Alexi was content with this story but when she saw Shawn on TV and saw her mother crying over him, she insisted to be told the whole story. So Marissa had no choice to tell her the truth… well, as I said, the part of the truth that wouldn't hurt Alexi too bad. Do you understand now why Alexi hates wrestling that much."

Batista nodded. He could understand that a little since Alexandria didn't know the whole truth.

He decided to drop all the questions that had come to his mind and reminded Jericho: "That's why you and Shawn never really got along well in the beginning. Oh yeah and you told me you could need my help."

Jericho sighed a little.
"Well…yeah, in the beginning every time I saw Shawn I had to control myself to not just punch him straight in the face. I blamed him that Alexandria had to grow up without a father. But later on I realised that Shawn probably never wanted it the way it turned out. He's a cool guy and I think he would have been a great father for Alexi, and hopefully will be someday. And for the thing I need your help with: We need to make sure that there's not the slightest chance that Shawn runs into Alexi... she would freak and perhaps do something she might regret later. And since Alexi looks a lot like her mother, I fear that Shawn might recognise her for Marissa's daughter and Shawn isn't dumb… he would start asking questions and that's something Alexi isn't ready for at the moment."

Batista nodded. "Of course I'll help you. But Chris... Alexi will find out the truth someday..."
"I know... I just hope she can cope with it..." Jericho sighed.

"Me too..." Batista nodded. He liked Alexi and he thought that she didn't deserve the things she was going through at the moment and he knew from now on that he wouldn't be able to look at Shawn the same than before the story Chris had just told him.

Sure Shawn was still a great guy and Batista didn't blame him alone for what had happened but he agreed with Jericho that Shawn could've at least told Marissa in person that it was over or at least call her once in a while. He rubbed his temple, trying to sort out his thoughts.

Suddenly he realised something.

"Chris... you still hope that Shawn and her will work their feelings out, don't you? That's why you made sure that she could stay with you this week. You hope that Alexandria will want to get to know her father when she's so near to him."
Chris' eyes widened a little.
"Am I that obvious?" He asked.

Batista shook his head.
"I just have known you for a while now so I guessed that this is another one of your plans... besides helping Alexi getting her eyesight back and setting her and Randy up."
Chris chuckled a little. He indeed hoped that Alexandria would accept the fact that wrestling wasn't so bad and that she would give her father a chance. He even had thought about 'accidentally' running into Shawn but he knew that would hurt Alexi too much. He needed to wait for her to make the first step or at least wait with any other plans until after the operation.

Then Jericho remembered that they should have been at Vince's office five minutes ago.

Since everything was said for the moment he brought that to Batista's attention and the two hurried to the office.

When they entered the office they found Shawn Michaels and Christian already sitting on one of the couches.

Eric and Vince were sitting behind McMahon's desk.

Jericho shot a short glance at Michaels before taking a seat in a nearby chair.

"So what's up Vince? Why do ya want to talk to us?" Batista questioned.

"First of all thanks for joining us..." McMahon said, a little annoyed. He hated when someone was late, even if it only was a minute.

Chris just flashed his famous grin at McMahon, not bothering to apologise and waited for him to continue.

The man did so.

"Well... I want to inform you that you will have a tag-team match this evening that will then start a new story line."
"Tag-team match?" Batista raised his eyebrow, wondering what storyline they had come up with now.

"Yeah... it's you and HBK versus Chris and Christian." Eric explained to the current heavyweight champion.

Chris shrugged. He didn't care whom he fought with, as long as it wasn't Shawn. He still was uncomfortable around him after everything he had caused Alexandria and her mother.

"And the new storyline?" He questioned, just to sound interested. In truth he just wanted to go back to the hotel room to see how Alexi and Randy were doing.

Vince smiled and wasted no time in telling them about it.

At some points Chris rolled his eyes and when Vince was finished Jericho didn't really know what to make of the new storyline.

He just decided to go along with it.

"So when everything is clear you should go to prepare for the matches..." Eric said, and dismissed the four wrestlers.

Chris was the last to leave and he was nearly out the door, when he remembered something.

He turned back to Vince and Eric.

"Um... Vince, Eric... I need to talk to you about tomorrow and about Alexi..."

HBK and Christian looked at Chris with curiosity but Batista shoved them out of the room and closed the door behind himself before they could ask any questions and he didn't want to risk that Shawn heard anything of the conversation with Vince and Eric about Alexandria's surgery.

When the door was closed behind them, the questions began.

"What does Jericho need to tell Vince? And who is Alexi?" Shawn questioned, looking at Batista with wonder.

Damn Chris… you could have at least waited until I had them both out of the room. Now I'm left to deal with two curious wrestlers and most important one of them is her father… Batista cursed in his thoughts.

HBK and Christian were staring at him expectantly.

Batista just decided to pretend that he didn't know either.

So he shrugged, trying to look as clueless as possible.

"I have no idea…" he started, hoping that the other two believed him.

Christian seemed to, but as he had expected Shawn just looked at him with a raised eyebrow, a sign that he didn't believe him.

But, he saw that Batista didn't want to talk about it so he decided to just forget about it for the moment. He was curious however, and he wanted to find out what Jericho was hiding.

I'm going to find out sooner or later… A secret is never save around here, especially not with Christy and Stacy around. He thought, smirking a little.

Chris was so focused on Vince and Eric that he hadn't realised that Shawn, Christian and Dave were still in the room. Had he known he would never have said anything about Alexi.

But since he didn't know he just had said it.

"So what about tomorrow?" McMahon wanted to know.

"I just wanted to tell you that I won't be available for any promo shootings tomorrow afternoon.

I'm going to accompany Alexandria to the hospital."
Vince nodded.

"I figured as much by the way you were talking yesterday. Your photo-shoot for tomorrow is already cancelled and will be done day after tomorrow."
"Thanks Vince…" Jericho smiled. This was a lot easier than he had thought. Y2J was about to turn and leave, when Vince called for him.
"Not so fast Chris… I want you to tell me a bit more about Alexandria and why you don't want the other wrestlers to know that she is with you. I think Eric and I have a right to know since we're letting her stay with you and even change plans so that you can go with her to the hospital."
Chris sighed, turned back and sat down in the chair again. The tone in McMahon's voice told him that it was no request but an order and he figured that the two men really had a right to know.

"Okay Vince… I'll tell you but please you can't tell anybody about it…"
Vince and Bischoff looked at each other and then they slowly nodded.
"Okay Chris we'll keep quiet if you give us a good reason to. And the first thing I want to know is why you didn't even introduce us. I mean after letting her stay with us I would at least have expected a thank you."
Jericho smiled a little. He figured the truth would be reason enough for them.

"Well that's an easy question to answer. She won't thank you and I can't introduce her to you because she hates you."

Vince looked at Jericho wide-eyed.

"She hates me? Why? She doesn't even know me…"

Chris ran a hand through his hair.

"Well it's not just you but wrestling in general."

This time Eric cut in.

"And why the hell does she hate us and wrestling."

"She blames you for taking her father away…" Chris started his explanation.

Vince looked a little shocked and confused at the same time.

"And how exactly have we taken her father away from her?" He demanded, dying to know everything. So Chris told Vince and Eric the same story he had told Batista before.

Vince's and Eric's reaction mirrored the one of Dave.

They were shocked, confused and Chris thought he saw pity in their eyes that was without doubt for Alexandria.

There was a minute of silence before Vince finally spoke up: "Damn, Chris you know what, I couldn't have scripted a better storyline…"

His attempt to lighten the gloomy mood in the room only worked partially.

Chris indeed smiled a little before he said: "Yeah… but unfortunately it's not a storyline. See now why I don't want the others, especially Shawn to know."

Vince and Eric nodded slowly. "Yeah… and don't worry Chris we won't tell anybody." He promised.

"Thanks Vince, thanks Eric… and I promise I'll make up for every inconvenience that might come up while Alexi stays with me…" Chris smiled brightly, but he wondered why Vince and Eric were that understanding.

He got his answer a second later.

"We know you will, but don't worry too much about it. To be honest after what you told us about Alexandria's history I feel kinda responsible and with helping her right now we can make it up to her at least a little bit."
Chris stood up and looked at his two bosses.

"Thanks a lot… but you don't need to feel responsible… it's not really your fault. It's just a damn complicated story."
McMahon and Bischoff nodded again. Now, with everything said, Chris was eager to get back to Alexandria.

Vince obviously realised that because he said: "And now go and prepare for your tag-team match."
"Thanks Eric, thanks Vince… I owe you one." Chris knew that he was dismissed for now and he quickly left the office.

Vince obviously realised that because he said: "And now go and prepare for your tag-team match." "Thanks Eric, thanks Vince… I owe you one." Chris knew that he was dismissed for now and he quickly left the office. Since he was in such a hurry he didn't hear that Vince and Eric started to argue about Alexi and Shawn…

so what do you think? Liked it? Hated it? plz r&r
