"Did Edge really used to date, like long term?" Lita asked, she was still very confused on the matter.

"I've known Edge since college and let me tell you something Lita, Edge actually had a few girlfriends back in the day, I could probably tell you some stories, if you're up for it." Mickie said, she was determined to judge Lita's character even though she had a good feeling about the red head, she needed to make sure.

"I'm up for anything, most of the time." Lita replied.

"Okay well Edge, Randy, and I used to hang out a lot, we still do, Randy was Edge's high school-I know that boys never really assign themselves best friends so I am going to use to term that they have told me over the years, they are bros from different hoes." Mickie stated hoping Lita wouldn't take it as she had years before.

"Well that's one way to put it." Lita responded, from what she gathered Edge and Randy had always been pretty close and when Mickie came along, she must have fit right in.

"For you to understand a bit better, I'm going to tell you how I met Edge first, okay?" Mickie asked.

"Alright."

"So it was probably about the second week of my freshman year in college when I met Edge, he was a junior, and there was this party so I decided what the hell, I'll go, and I get totally wasted thanks to a jerk who kept giving me beer, seriously I would finish one then he would put another in my hand, so Edge came over to us and brought me back to his dorm room where I slept it off."

"So the guy giving you beer, he was trying to sleep with you, right?" Lita asked, she was pretty sure she sounded like an idiot but she wasn't sure how else to reply to that.

"Yeah, I think he was trying for the she's so drunk that she won't remember what I look like or what happened." Mickie told her as she shook her head.

"What a tool, well nearly all college guys are tools." Lita said, that was why she didn't date college guys in college.

"I know."

"So did you ever find out who it was, make him pay?" Lita asked, she was in the mood for a good revenge story.

Mickie smirked, she did make him pay, "I still do, I made him watch six chick flicks with me last night."

"It was Ricky?" Lita asked in shock, it made her wonder why Mickie had ever started dating Ricky in the first place.

"Randy." Mickie corrected her.

"Oh, right, so if you guys have been going out since college-"

"Um no, we started going out two years ago, but I'll tell you that story later, now I'll tell you one about the man you are going to marry, its not a crazy hookup story but I think it will do." Mickie stated, it was more of the kind of story Edge himself would be embarrassed to tell.

"Great."

"So it was a couple weeks after we met-

Flashback

Mickie sat on the couch in Randy and Edge's dorm room, while she watched Edge and Randy battle it out on some game from a PlayStation, when someone knocked on the door,

"Mickie get it so I can kick his ass!" Randy commanded not taking his eyes off the screen.

"He meant to say can you get the door please." Edge said as he resisted the urge to hit Randy, beating him was going to be so sweet.

"Fine." Mickie said before giving a quick glare to both of them, she was starting to question why she hing out with them

"Have I ever mentioned that we love you?" Edge asked smiling, it was nice to have a girl around it made him and Randy seem, well less gay.

"Speak for yourself Romeo, the girl seriously cramps our style, last girl I tried to get with ended up talking to Mickie about nail polish." Randy said, he was still very mad about that incident, she was a ten! The only good thing about having Mickie around was that she was good to look at and she smelt good.

"Shut up," Mickie told him before answering the door, "hi."

"Hey, I'm looking for Edge."

"Why?" Mickie asked as she examined the blond girl.

"I'm Torrie, Edge and I go way back, we dated in high school but we broke up after graduation, um is he here or not, or are you his girlfriend?"

"Mickie who's at the," Edge looked at Torrie, "door, Torrie its been two years."

"Is she your girlfriend?"

"What's taking so long Edge-Torrie." Randy said in shock, the blond hadn't change that much if anything she had gotten even easier to look at/

"Hi Randy," Torrie turned back to Edge, "So?"

"No Mickie and I aren't dating she's actually Randy's girlfriend."

"I am?" Mickie asked, before Edge glared at her, "I am."

"Yeah we're dating." Randy stated awkwardly before putting an arm over Mickie.

Torrie gave them a questioning look, "Prove it, kiss."

"Is that really necessary?" Mickie asked, sure Randy was hot no matter what he was doing or how bad he was annoying her but that really wouldn't help her to be even more attracted to him than she already was.

"Why wouldn't you want to, unless you're with Edge?"

"Well-"

Randy cut Mickie off when he slammed his lips against hers for a few seconds before pulling away, "There."

"I'm sorry Randy, I should have just believed you and Edge," Torrie turned to Edge, "speaking of you, do you want to maybe grab some coffee?"

"I love you."

"What?" Torrie asked.

"I mean sure, I loved you in high school, not anymore, unless you want me to love you, which in that case I do, love you, but um only if you want me to."

End Flashback

"Edge seriously had some bad flirting skills." Lita stated, it kind of reminded her of her friend Jeff from college, of course that friendship would later fall out after some very bad experiences between her and his brother.

"Can you blame me it was college?" Edge asked somewhat angry that Mickie had chosen that story out of all the ones she had.

"What are you doing here?" Lita asked, she thought he was waiting for her somewhere else.

"Its his house." Randy stated as he tried to pick up a vibe on Lita.

"Thank you Randy, but I have this covered, you were taking a while so I came down here, why did you tell that story?"

"What's wrong with that story?" Mickie asked.

Edge rolled his eyes, "You know what's wrong with that story, I dated Torrie for two years after that, then she left to be with my arch enemy."

"Michael?" Lita asked, that was the only person that she knew Edge didn't like.

"No! John Cena." Edge exclaimed, losing a woman to Michael would have just been down right humiliating, he would never be able to go to the country club again.

"Oh I'm sorry, I didn't know you actually had that long of a relationship before." Lita said as she felt a feeling she didn't like.

"If you think that's long-"

"Mickie Randy can I talk to you, alone?" Edge asked, he couldn't believe he had waited this long to tell them.

"Sure." Mickie agreed before the three walked out of the room, "What's so important?"

"I do not want Lita knowing about Maria." Edge stated, there was some things that he couldn't tell Lita and that was a huge no in bold capital letters.

"Why, she was huge part of your life?" Mickie asked not getting why Edge wouldn't want to tell Lita.

"I don't need anyone else feeling sorry for me, not to mention she could back out because of it."

"He's right Mickie, Lita can't know about her and it isn't any of our business to tell her, now lets get some drinks."

"Fine I guess I could have a water."

"A water, I'll get you a scotch on the rocks."

"No I don't want a scotch I want water." Mickie said, she couldn't let anyone know not yet.

Edge examined his friends, Mickie looked desperate, Randy looked confused, that could only mean one thing, "Mickie is there something you want to tell us?"

"Not really, I don't see the problem with me not wanting to drink, you know its possible just to not want one." with that Mickie went back into the room with Lita.

"What is going on with her, I mean I'm not the only one realizing she's acting different, right?" Randy asked, he couldn't put his finger on it but she seemed different, she seemed scared?

"Randy I think I know what's wrong with Mickie." Edge stated in all seriousness, all signs pointed to it.

"What?" Randy asked, if Edge really knew then maybe he could help Mickie.

"She's an alcoholic."

"That's ridiculous." Randy replied, "I'm her boyfriend I would know if she was an alcoholic."

"Would you?"

"Yes."

"You sure?"

"Yes."

"Are you-"

"Edge I will not hesitate to punch you."

"I will not hesitate to kick you off my property."

Randy laughed before he and Edge fist bumped, "I have to find out what's going on soon though."

"Try not to kill yourself doing it."

Randy rolled his eyes as he smirked at Edge he was about to reply until his phone rang, he stuck up a finger before answering his phone.


"It looks like my fiancé was annoying you." Lita stated as she looked at the annoyance on Mickie's face.

"No it was my boyfriend, he thinks that that he can decide rather or not I drink alcohol." Mickie said as she felt like punching something.

"I'm sorry but I need to know this before I can dish out my amazing advice, did you want to drink or not?" Lita asked, she didn't feel like giving a possible alcoholic the advice to 'just drink' not again.

"Not." Mickie responded.

"Why, as far as I know there are two logical reasons for not drinking." Lita told her, it was exactly what her mom told her on her twenty first birthday.

"Really?"

"Alcoholics, which I'm pretty sure you aren't due to Randy actually wanting you to drink or-are you pregnant?"

"Did it ever occur to anyone that I just might not feel up to drinking?" Mickie asked out of pure annoyance, not wanting to drink didn't automatically make her pregnant.

"Do you?" Lita asked, she was getting the feeling that she was bugging Mickie.

"Yes, my sister has had some problems with alcohol so I agreed to stop drinking it too." Mickie stated as she crossed her arms.

"Okay, so um you got anymore stories about Edge?" Lita asked desperately wanting to change the subject.

"Plenty, but before I tell you, you have to tell me one." Mickie demanded, she wanted to find out more about Edge's future wife.

"I don't know any stories about Edge." Lita said hoping she didn't really want to hear any stories about her.

"Not about Edge about-"

"Mickie we got to go." Randy interrupted her as he grabbed his jacket off the bar, "I just got a call."

"Well if its okay with you I'd rather stay and get to know Lita." Mickie replied not taking her eyes off Lita, she had the feeling that she was hiding something.

"Mickie this is important." Randy told her hoping that she would get the point.

"Randy-"

"Cupcake."

"Did he just call her cupcake?" Edge asked in disgust.

Mickie's eyes widened, "What?"

"In the flesh."

"We have to go." Mickie stated before turning to Lita, "This is not over."


"Are your friends always that weird?" Lita asked as she helped herself to the bar, she really could get used to living the good life.

"Pretty much, but you'll get used to it." Edge stated, all he needed was a sex tape then the three of them would have their own reality show.

"So um Torrie, you guys dated for a while." Lita found herself saying, she didn't know why but it made her feel uncomfortable.

"Jealous?" Edge asked with a growing smirk, he was thinking that she was beginning to warm up to him or hoped she was because he was warming up to her.

"No why the hell would I be jealous?" Lita asked, she didn't intend for it to come out as rudely as she heard it but decided it was for the best.

"Because she was with all of this." Edge said as he motioned his hands around his body.

Lita laughed as she copied his motion, "Yeah like I want to be with all of that."

"We'll see if you're still saying that in a year." Edge replied, he knew he couldn't go that long without sex and if he had some kind of mistress there was always the chance it would come back to bit him in the ass.

"I will be." Lita said, she had too much respect for herself.

Edge smirked at her, "Sure you will sweetheart."

"Am I missing something or do you actually want me to fall for you?" Lita asked curiously.

"Is it working?" Edge asked not really noticing that he was beginning to care.

"Hell no."

Edge felt a small wave of disappointment go through him, he loved it when girls fell for him, "I don't want you to fall for me, truth be told I never want to have another serious relationship ever again."

"Why?"

"That's none of your damn business."

"Well I'm going to be your wife soon so it will be my business."

"You ever hear the phrase marriage is just a piece of paper, well that's what it is to me now, its only a piece of paper nothing deeper."


"Randy are you sure this was a good idea?" Mickie asked as she sat down in their usual booth at the bar.

"Yep." Randy replied before turning his eyes to the woman who had just walked in and sat down, "Look what the wind blew in."

"It seems to me like you haven't lost your sense of humor," the woman stated as she examined Randy and Mickie, "Thank you for agreeing to meet with me."

"Don't make us regret it." Mickie said as she leaned back against the booth.

"No need to be hostile, we used to be friends."

"Used to be being the keywords." Mickie replied as she glared at the woman in front of her.

"Ouch, that cuts me deeply Mickie but you need to hear me out, both of you."

"We don't need to do anything, we could very easily walk out that door right now." Randy told her, he always knew she had a dark side, but he never thought he would see it.

"But you aren't going to."

"Actually I think we are, come on Mickie lets go." Randy commanded, he thought he might be able to have a conversation with her but she was already too far gone from who she used to be.

"You were right when you said he treats you like dog sometimes Mickie, you totally seem like his bitch."

Randy turned to Mickie, "What is she talking about?"

"Don't act all high and mighty Randy you were the one always telling Edge you never want to get married or have kids, have you told Mickie that?"

"What?" Mickie asked.

"You know what it seems like you both have a lot to talk about so I'll be in touch."

"You know what keep telling us this Maria we aren't going to let Edge get back together with you."

"We'll see about that."

A/N Thoughts? Do you think that Edge and Lita will actually fall for each other? What do you think Maria will do to get back Edge? Do you think something is wrong with Mickie?
