The One
Chapter Eleven: I Love You
Tears streamed down her face, smearing her make up as they did so, however she didn't care. She could care less, right now she was broken. This had never happened to her before.. She was used in the worse way. He used her for sex and she wasn't too please. Then again, who would be? She wasn't really going anywhere, right now she was running through the rain in nothing but a pair of sweat pants and a tank top - of course with respective under garments, however they were clinging to her skin as the rain fell down hard. It was hard for her to control the tears that seemed to leak out of her eyes without care. She hadn't cared that she could get a cold from being outside in the freezing rain. Her heart was broken, she had fallen in love with Randy and this is how he treated her heart? She knew that she would have a lot to face when she would tell Chris about her cheating, she never really thought about him when she was sleeping with Randy.. Nor had she thought about Amy, her best friend. Right now Trish Stratus was miserable. There was no changing that. But maybe she could change her likely future... Maybe she could mend the broken relationships she'd have from this experience... Maybe someday she could carry on with the life she was destined to have.
But that seemed so far away right now. She could feel tears of sorry and misery trembling down her cheek as she fell to her knees, looking up at the dark blue sky.
Her arms wrapped around her own waist, there she would sit... Alone and scared of what could happen to her after she reveals this afraid that she deeply regretted now.

After she signed the release forms Amy along with John and James was on her way home, or at least where she'd be staying until her and Randy talked things over. Their current location was that of the hotel that John was staying at, not exactly the best place for a new born.. but she had a gut feeling that this wouldn't last too long. Either she'd go to her mom's house to stay with her or Randy would come back, begging her to forgive him. The question, however, wasn't how long she'd be there.. It was if she'd forgive Randy. Sure he over reacted, but that didn't mean he had to abandon her and their child for days. To top it all off, he even ignored her calls. The thought of him practically made her cry.. She was finally admitting it to herself, she finally was ready to admit it aloud... She fell in love with Randy.
Being away from him made her realize that she really did love him, and she wanted to be with him. However, she hadn't had the slightest clue what had gone down at Trish's house. Neither the fact that Randy slept with Trish nor the fact that Trish was in love with Randy. John also hadn't had any knowledge of the incident either, he was just as clueless as Amy was on the entire situation. John was pretty sure that the redhead wasn't going to forgive Randy so easily, even if she may really love him, she wouldn't forgive and forget so soon. But then again, she might, and it'd be a huge mistake on her part, she'd seem weak.. like she couldn't live without Randy's 'love' for a week. And John knew damn well that the diva didn't need Randy at all. He didn't trust Randy, at least not anymore, and during their friendship John could easily say that there were times where Randy wasn't exactly truthful or a 'good' boy. It was odd how he gave off this 'I am a charming, handsome and sometimes arrogant nice guy', but in reality he was all those things, but he was not a nice guy. He was cocky, arrogant and he had the world's biggest ego. Having a huge ego may be a complication where it comes to trying to have a 'relationship' with him, whether it's a friendship or girlfriend.. It wasn't easy being friends with the Legend Killer. In fact it was far from easy, there were times when John thought that they would never 'make up' and that they'd be fighting forever. Somehow, it all blew over, and John would never forget one thing about Randy.. Randy Orton never apologizes. No matter how wrong he was, he would never apologize. It was all about that ego of his - it would not allow him to say that he was sorry for what he did. In fact, John couldn't think of too many things that Randy would regret, at least not aloud. If he used a woman for sex, he may have regretted hurting her feelings, but he was still bragging about it. If he purposely hurt a friend, he may feel some guilt and he may regret hurting them, but again he would not admit it aloud.
Yet, the diva found herself with John Cena, a man who had said he loved her many times.. Her feelings were mixed toward the dark haired wrestler. She knew that she loved Randy, but with John.. She had a hard time grasping those feelings and placing them in a 'category' so to speak. It was either that she loved him or not, it was a simple question, however she also felt that maybe she did love John. But she refused to admit it, even to herself.
"Ames, you should get some sleep.."
Came the soft and gentle voice of one John Cena, causing the redhead to sigh.
"I-I know... But.. I can't. It wouldn't feel right." Amy replied sadly.
"You want me to sleep with you, just for tonight? I won't try and pull anythin'.. You won't hafta worry." John offered.
Amy smiled slightly, "I-I think that'd be good. A-are you sure, though?"
"Yeah, I'm positive."
"W-what about James?" Amy asked quickly.
"It's not really safe, but he could always sleep with us. Or, if you want, I could go out and buy a 'crib' of some sort.." John responded easily.
"I'd feel better with getting him a crib, but I'll pay for it."
"Naw, that's okay, I can." John offered a smile. "Don't worry, I've got plenty of money."
"It's not money that I'm worried about.. John, I don't want to cost you too much." Amy stated softly.
"It's okay, babe, I can do it for ya." John replied.
-x-x-x-
He couldn't believe he was actually doing this, but he felt bad about leaving Trish that way.. Even if he really wanted to be with Amy and the baby right now. Sure, he had used Trish in the worst way... But, despite what he had told Trish... He did love Amy. It was hard for him to admit it, but he did. He missed her terribly and he wanted to be with her right now. If he had it his way, he would be. As Randy dialed Trish's number he thought about how hurt Amy would be if she learned about this mistake. Trish picked up quickly.
"Chris?" Came the broken voice of Trish.
Randy sighed, "No, Trish.. It's Randy... I-I'm sorry about what I did to you.."
"R-randy? W-what d-do... What do you want?" Trish asked in a shaky tone.
"I wanted to tell you that I'm sorry for what I did. I don't mean to sound cruel here, but I'd appreciate it if you didn't mention this incident to Ames.. I-I really love her Trish. This has made me see that I love her, and I can't take the chance of you telling her.. I promise I will, but right now, I just want to be with her." Randy explained.
What Randy hoped to hear was Trish's understanding voice, however the only thing he heard was the sharp sound of the dial tone. She had hung up.
Randy sighed again, shaking his head before he turned into the hotel where he had been told John was staying at with Amy. He waited a moment before he headed to the lobby to see which of the rooms on the lot John was staying in. Randy offered the receptionist a smile before he dashed out of the lobby and made his way to the room he had been told to go to. He stared at the door for a good few minutes before he finally knocked. Without thinking he smiled at the sound of a baby crying - his baby, the baby that he had so desperately wanted to protect now more than ever. The door opened and the second he seen Amy he grabbed the back of her neck and forced his lips onto hers.
To say the redhead was shocked was an understatement, right about now she was only thanking god that John hadn't left to go get a crib yet. The West Newbury native was currently taking a shower.
"I love you." Randy mumbled against her lips.
Amy pulled away to look into Randy's eyes, as if to search for truth.
"Randy…" She started. "Where were you? I was worried about you."
"Babe, I'm sorry.. I was staying with a friend.. I had to sort my feelings out. Staying with my friend made me realize that I love you, and I could never allow myself to let you or James go.. I love you, baby." Randy said with force. "I want you…"
"Randy, you don't know how happy I am to hear you say that.." Amy whispered before her arms wrapped around his neck. "I love you, too."
Sure hearing her say that she loved Randy was exactly what John wanted to hear when he came out of the bathroom. He froze in his place, as he stared at them. Randy and John locked eyes, a smirk coming across Randy's face as his hands rested on her lower back. To add insult to injury Randy even winked at him, as if to say that he had gotten away with something huge just now. John literally wanted to tear Randy apart right about, now, however he restrained himself.. He knew that in good time she'd realize what a piece of shit he really was.
To add the icing on the cake Randy went on to say, "I think we should go home.. Spend some quality time together, you know?"
A smile came across her face as she pulled away, "Sounds good, I.. I need to talk to John."
"No need." John cut in. "I already know what's goin' on here.. You two can jus' leave. It's okay."
For some reason Amy couldn't believe that he was actually serious. John's tone was too… hurt… to even show any signs that he was truly 'okay' with that.
"John… I'm sorry, I-I'll call you, okay?" Amy offered.
"Yeah, that's cool." John replied uneasily.
"Okay.." Amy mumbled before she gathered her things.
Randy taking James from Amy's arms as she walked to the door. Amy allowing Randy to leave first before she turned to look at John.. Without thinking she whispered the words that he so desperately wanted to hear…
"I love you, John."
