Authors Note: Sorry this took me so long to get up! I never really liked how this ended so I was playing around with it for a while but nothing I did really fit so I just left it with this. Let me know what you think about it.
As for why I haven't posted anything in a while, I haven't been motivated to write anything at all. Nothing has really inspired me enough to write about it. I feel some one shots bubbling up in me now, so there might be some new ones coming up ;D. I've also been working on a longer chapter fic (yes I know, I said I wasn't going to write any more of those, but there's a story behind this one! LOL). It's an AU fic where a bunch of everyone's favorite wrestlers and divas go on spring break together. It's better than it sounds. I don't know when I'll have that posted because I want to have it almost done before I begin to post it. Enough rambling, on to the fic!

Melina took one look at me with tear filled eyes and ran out of the banquet hall. I blew it. I laid my feelings and my soul out on a silver platter for her and she refused me. I let out a sigh as I rested my head in my hands. As I opened my eyes I realized that everyone in the entire room was looking at me. My eyes fell to the floor and I headed out of the room.
I had no clue where I was going. I couldn't go back in there, and if I found her, I have no clue what I would say. How could I be just friends with someone like her? I let out a sigh as I made my way to an exit. As soon as I stepped outside I heard some muffled crying. I looked over to my right and I saw her sitting there bawling her eyes out. I let out a shaky sigh and made my way over towards her.
"Look, Mel, I'm sorry-" I said before she cut me off.
"Just don't Randy." She said with a sniffle as she held up her hand for me to stop.
"Stop what?" I asked as I sat down next to her.
"Stop what you were going to say. You already said what you did and there's no way that you can take that back." She replied as she began to sob again.
"Who ever said that I wanted to take that back? What I said in there was real, Melina. I meant every word of it." I said as I tried to place my hand on her arm, but she yanked her arm away from me.
"Just leave me alone Randy, I don't need you." She answered as silent tears were pouring down her face.
"I'm not going to leave you Melina because I never have and I never will. You just need to tell me what is wrong so I can help you." I said as some rain began to fall.
"There is nothing wrong with me! Just go!" She yelled as she stood up and turned her back to me to try and walk away. I grabbed her arms and held onto her so she couldn't run away. I turned her so she was facing me.
"Melina, I don't know what you want from me. I've given you more than anyone else could ever give you, I gave you my heart. I love you Melina! What else do you want!" I said as another round of sobs wracked her body and she fell into my arms. "Tell me what it is and whatever you want I'll give you." I said as I wrapped my arms around her tiny frame.
"Randy," She said as with a sniffle as she overcame some sobs. The rain was coming down like Mick Foley off a cage, it was absolutely pouring. "The last time someone told me that, he broke my heart. You want to know why I'm like this now? It's because I'm scared. I'm scared Randy. Did you ever think that you might not be the only one with those feelings! I don't want to end up like I did before! I don't want to lose you!"
"You'll never lose me." I answered as I brushed a strand of wet hair off her face. I looked into her brown eyes and took her face in my hands. I leaned down and captured her lips with mine. Before I knew it, our tongues were fighting a battle of dominance with one another. After a minute or so we pulled away from each other and I rested my forehead against hers. "I love you Melina." I said for the third time that night.
"I love you too Randy." She replied with a small smile. I returned her smile with one of my own.
"I would ask you if you want to go back in there, but I doubt your sister wants us in there sopping wet like this." I said with a bit of a chuckle. She let out a small giggle as she laced her fingers with mine.
"Why don't we just go back to my place and dry off. I'm sure Tess will understand." She answered.
"Sounds good to me." I replied as I picked her up and place her on my back, piggy back style and carried her back to the car.
That night we got back to her house and after we changed into some dry clothes, we ended up watching some movie that was on TV at the time. We talked about the future and how everything was going to work out between us. She ended up falling asleep in my arms.
I realized that this is all that I ever wanted in life. As long as I have her by my side, then nothing can go wrong. With her in my arms I feel like Superman, nothing can bring me down.
