Chapter 17 – The Dangers of Misconceptions

Alex was so angry as she stormed down the halls of the arena towards the exit. She couldn't believe that Randy would do such a thing after telling her how much he loved her. The tears were definitely flowing down her face and at the moment she just wanted to get as far away from it all as she possibly could.

She finally reached the exit and quickly tried to find her car. Upon finding it, Alex just smirked to herself as she heard the engine turn over. She found some sort of retribution in the fact that Randy would have to find his own way back to the hotel. Once he got to the hotel he'd have to find his own room as well. There was no way that Alex would be sharing a room with Randy especially since she really didn't have any desire to see him at all.

As soon as Alex got back to the hotel room she started putting all of Randy's stuff together. She put his clothes and all of his stuff back in his suitcase and then put it by the door. Then she started seeing all of her stuff that reminded her of Randy. She saw a few shirts that he bought her. She saw the gorgeous dress that he just barely bought her for that 'just in case' occasion. She touched the necklace around her neck that he had given her just after they got back together. She merely took it off and added it to the growing pile of her stuff that made her think of Randy. The stuff simply had to leave because she didn't even want to think about him anymore.

She knew it was rash to break up with him so quickly and to try and erase him from her life so quickly as well, but she had to do it. It was the only thing that kept her from breaking down completely. She needed to stay busy and putting stuff, which reminded her of Randy, in a pile was keeping her busy.

That entire plan faded into nothing though as soon as Alex got to the pictures. The pictures did her in completely. She started seeing all the happy times with Randy and she couldn't take it anymore. She broke down a cried. Her tears needed to be let out and once they started there was no way she was able to stop them. She continued crying as she picked up the phone.


Meanwhile, Randy was trying to figure out what he could do to fix the situation. He finally decided to dial the all too familiar number.

"Hello?" A woman's voice answered on the other end of the phone.

"Samantha, there is a huge problem in the plans." Randy said quickly.

"Why? Randy, what happened?" The woman continued.

"Alex heard us talking just barely and completely freaked out. She doesn't have any idea what is really going on but she definitely has some ideas that are way off base. She actually broke up with me."

"What?" She exclaimed. "All right, Randy, just stay calm. This is fine. We just need to find her and have everything sorted out. We are probably going to have to give away the surprise though in order to explain everything." Samantha stated very calmly, as if she had handled situations like this in the past.

"I don't care about the surprise anymore, I just want Alex back and to put everything back to normal."

"Okay, she probably went back to the hotel, right?" She questioned.

"Yeah, she probably took the rental too so I'm going to have to take a cab." Randy explained.

"Alright, so find a cab quickly and meet me in the hotel lobby so we can go talk to Alex and get this all sorted out."

"That sounds good. I'll be there soon." Then Randy closed his phone and ran out of the locker room. He wanted to catch a cab and get to the arena as quickly as possible so he could try and fix the huge mess that he had created. In his act of rushing around a corner he ran smack dab into another person rushing to get somewhere.

"John?" Randy questioned. "Where are you going in such a hurry?"

"Well I was headed to find you…but now that I've found you…wait, where were you going in such a hurry?" John questioned.

"To catch a cab back to the hotel. I need to talk to Alex and get everything sorted out." Randy explained.

"Well yeah, I'd have to agree that Alex deserves an explanation after all that you've put her through today but why in such a hurry to explain now when you weren't so eager before?"

Randy sighed. "John…Alex broke up with me. She is completely confused about everything going on today and I just need to talk with her."

"Wait, what?" John exclaimed. "She broke up with you?"

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure she thinks I'm cheating on her, but I'm not." Randy explained quickly.

"You had better not be."

"I'm not. But, I do need to hurry so that I can explain everything."

"Alright, well why don't you let me drive you? Desiree took a cab back to the hotel earlier tonight so I can easily take you as soon as I get my bag out of my locker room."

"Okay, fine. That sounds good, just hurry. I'll meet you outside."

"Okay." John said as he quickly headed to the locker room to pick up his bag. He had just barely gotten outside to find Randy when his cell phone rang.

"Hello?" He said after opening his phone.

"Hey John." A sad voice said on the other end of the phone.

"Alex? Are you all right?" John questioned with concern.

"No, not really. I broke up with Randy tonight because I found out that he was cheating on me. I could really use someone to talk to. Do you think you could meet me?"

"Alex, I don't think Randy is cheating on you. I'm on my way though anyways. I just have to find…"

Before John could finish though he saw Randy coming towards him unaware of the car that was barreling towards him. John didn't even have time to warn Randy before the car slammed on its brakes, crashing into Randy in the process.

"Randy!" John screamed as he dropped his phone and headed towards his fallen friend.

Alex was still on the other end of the phone and she heard the entire scene before being cut off when John dropped his phone. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. Part of her was glad that something bad had happened to Randy but another part, the larger part, was scared to death to loose him forever. No matter how angry she was at him, she couldn't face the idea of losing him forever. She redialed John's cell number tons of times hoping to get a hold of him but it was no use. His phone probably wasn't working anymore.

Alex was about to try again when someone knocked on her door. She got up to answer it only to find Desiree standing on the other side.

"John just called from Randy's phone, he said that he couldn't get a hold of you." Desiree said quickly trying to catch her breath after running down the hall to Alex's hotel room.

"Yeah, I've been trying to call his phone."

"His isn't working anymore but he said that they are headed to the hospital in an ambulance."

"Is Randy alright?" Alex said with concern.

"Well…" Desiree started, not sure how to tell Alex the truth. "John said that it isn't looking good but that we'll have to see."

"Oh." Alex said with the tears threatening to fall.

Desiree pulled Alex into a hug. "It's going to be okay. We'll just head to the hospital and hope for the best."

"It's just so hard because I am so angry at Randy right now but I don't want him to die either."

"I know. Let's go." Desiree said leading Alex out of the hotel room so that they could head to the hospital.


When they arrived at the hospital, Randy was still unconscious after being worked on to repair the damage done by the collision. John was sitting in the waiting room. When he saw that the girls had arrived he immediately hugged Desiree and made sure that Alex was doing okay. At that point Alex really wasn't saying too much. She was going through too much inner turmoil having to do with the entire Randy situation and everything that had happened.

"Is she alright?" John asked Desiree as he motioned towards Alex.

"I'm not sure. She's been like that throughout the entire car ride here. Can we see Randy?"

"No, they said they don't want to let anybody in yet."

Desiree sighed. "So before this all happened, did you figure out what has been going on with Randy?"

"No, but I'm thinking we will before this all finishes. There is a woman named Samantha on her way here. She called Randy's phone and I answered and told her what was going on. She said she would be here soon to explain why Randy has been acting so strange lately."

"Okay…" Desiree said as she snuggled into another hug with her boyfriend. "I wonder what that means.

A few minutes later, Samantha did walk into that waiting room. She immediately introduced herself to everyone which snapped Alex back to reality.

"What? You are the Samantha? You have some nerve coming here." Alex said with anger evident in her voice.

"Now, Alex calm down. I need to explain a few things about what has been going on." Samantha replied as calmly as she could while trying to calm Alex in the process..

"No, I don't want to hear about it." Alex yelled.

"Alex, please just let Samantha explain. Maybe there is a logical explanation to everything." John said.

Samantha smiled. "There is…if you'll just let me explain."

Alex just crossed her arms and sat in the chair, not caring anymore if Samantha talked or didn't talk.

Samantha sighed. "My name is Samantha Kennett and I am a party planner. Randy hired me to plan a surprise birthday party in your honor that was supposed to be going on right now at a club down town. He even had your family and your friend Cameran, from California, flown in so they could see you. They were at the club waiting for all of us to arrive but I called them and they are on their way here as we speak."

John sighed. "Well that explains everything."

Alex stood up. "No it doesn't. Who does Randy love?"

"Excuse me?" Samantha questioned.

"I overheard a conversation between Randy and someone where he said that he couldn't wait to see them and that he loved them."

"Oh yes, Randy told me about that." Samantha walked towards Alex and touched her shoulder. "Randy was on the phone with his mother. He flew his family out as well so that all of you could celebrate together." Samantha sighed. "Alex, Randy really does love you…a lot."

Alex started crying. "I know. I can't believe I ever thought otherwise."

Desiree rushed over to hug and comfort her friend. Then Alex's world crumbled even more when she saw a doctor and a nurse hurry by towards the room that Randy was in. That could mean one of two things. It could mean bad news or good news. Randy was either dead or he was waking up. Whatever it was though, Alex braced herself for what she would find as she headed towards the room…


A/N – Wow! What do you think is going to happen next? I don't think this chapter is really my best but I think I kind of have to get back into the swing of writing after not writing for so long. I'm sorry about that. I hope you all have missed me because I have definitely missed writing and hearing from all of you. Anyways though, I hope you enjoyed the chapter. This is leading into the next chapter which will probably be the final chapter. Don't worry though, I'm working on a couple of ideas for a new story that I will start as soon as I finish this one. Please review, and let me know what you think. Thanks!
