Lita quietly walked through Edge's house, she was guessing that he had left while she was still talking to Trish but she couldn't think about anything other than what Trish had told her. She knew she probably should have told Edge, but she couldn't help it, if Edge knew he would probably break off the deal and she couldn't afford for him to. Lita sighed before picking up the letter she had received years ago before angrily throwing it back down, it wasn't fair that it still made her upset.

"Are you okay?"

Lita slightly jumped before turning around seeing a man standing there, "Yes, sorry I'm fine."

"I'm sorry if I startled you, I'm Richard Adam's father."

"Lita, I'm his fiancé." Lita introduced herself as she took a look at Edge's father, he seemed okay.

"Is Adam around?"

"No he went out." Lita replied starting to wonder where Edge had went.

"That's so typical of him," Richard said before rolling his eyes, "Is he out partying again."

"I do-"

"You know what don't answer that, I know he is."

"Wel-"

"He's being groomed to take over the company that my Great Grandfather Adam started and he is a disgrace to the name, he can't grow up."

"Um-"

"What are you saying ladies to not say 'um'," Richard stated before looking her up and down, "You are going to be the wife of my son so you need to talk him out of being a man child."

Lita not knowing what to say just nodded, she got why his name was Richard though, he was a major dick.

"I'll be back later, please tell Adam I'm coming and maybe we can set up a night to have cocktails."

"That would be great I'll see you later." Lita said before putting on a major fake smile before dropping it as soon as he left, she hated Edge's dad.


Edge felt himself a bit nervous as he walked into Randy's place, he knew that he had to tell him about Mickie due to him being ready to chop off anybody's head, "Orton!"

"Yeah?" Randy asked as he looked at his phone wondering why Mickie still hadn't called or anything, he had stopped by Maria's after work and she wasn't there so he thought she would have came back by now.

"We need to talk."

Randy laughed as he put his phone down, "This isn't one of those moments where you admit you're secretly in love with me is it?"

"No this is one of those moments when I tell you that Mickie called me."

"Mickie called you?" Randy asked, "Where is she? Is she okay? Is the baby okay? Does she want to see-"

"Randy she went back to Richmond." Edge stated, he was trying to tell him gently but wasn't sure that it had worked out like that.

"Richmond?" Randy asked, "Oh my god I need to buy a ticket and-"

"Randy!" Edge yelled, "You can't just show up there."

"Why the hell not?" Randy asked, Mickie was his girlfriend, he had every right to go after her if he damn well pleases.

"Because Mickie told you she was pregnant and you didn't react well." Edge said as he tried to make Randy give it some time.

"I've calmed down now, I talked to...someone and she made me realize that if I want Mickie that I have to accept that I'm going to be a dad, maybe I don't want a kid right now but that doesn't mean that won't change right?" Randy asked, he was still confused as hell on the whole parenting thing but he was starting to come around on it.

"I don't know but maybe you should give her some space." Edge looked down as he thought of a plan, he knew how to see if Randy was being serious, "I mean it isn't like you're going to be a father."

"What?" Randy asked, confusion written all over his face.

"Mickie lost the baby." Edge watched as Randy's face fell,

"She-she lost the baby, I can't believe it, I'm never going to meet my kid, oh my god how is she, she must be a wreck."

"Yeah well it's not like it was yours anyway Mickie and I have been having an affair for years."

"Dude that was not funny." Randy said before punching Edge, "That's my family you're joking about."

"Your family?"

"Yeah Mickie and the baby." Randy clinched his fist before realizing what he had said, Mickie and the baby were his family, he couldn't lose his family, "I need to talk to her."

"Yeah you do and your welcome."

"Shut up before I punch you again Edge."

"There's a plane leaving in an hour here's your ticket go get her."


Mickie looked around her old room as she was laying on her old bed, it was so weird thinking about everything that had happened since she had lived there, or even since the last time she was there, she had been there with Edge and Randy three years ago

"So this is where Mickie James grew up?" Edge asked as he took a look through the house, "It's cool."

"What are you talking about Edge, it's nowhere near as good as my place." Randy stated as he looked around the house, truth be told it was fine but he just wanted to push Mickie's buttons.

"If you're here to criticize I highly suggest you get on a plane and go back to New York." Mickie stated as she looked at Randy with an annoyed look, she really hated him some times.

"He doesn't want to upset you do you Randy?" Edge asked, he had gotten used to being the referee to those two ages ago, so their fighting didn't bug him as much as it used to.

"I was kidding," Randy said when he realized that nobody was getting his joke. "it looks fine now everybody stop glaring at me."

"We really are grateful your parents are letting us stay here while we're at a convention, where are your parents anyway?" Edge asked as he looked around for any signs of Mickie's parents.

"They're probably with my sister, you do remember the only reason I'm here is for my sister's wedding?" Mickie asked as she glanced at both of her friends.

"And here I thought it was an excuse to spend time with me." Randy stated as he smirked at Mickie.

"Get over yourself Randy." Mickie stated before sitting down.

"Mickie!" Mickie's father Stuart called as he came into the house, "Sorry we're late Gloria and I were with Mandy, I'm glad your not getting married anytime soon or I'd be broke."

"Stop trying to discourage our daughter from getting married Stuart."

"Randy Edge these are my parents, Stuart and Gloria."

"Nice to meet you Mr. James. you too Mrs. James."

"It's a pleasure," Gloria replied, "so our either of you dating anyone?"

"Mom!" Mickie exclaimed quickly remembering why she never brought guys to her house as a teenager or ever.

"It's fine, I've been dating my girlfriend for a few years." Edge replied.

"What about you?"

"Oh I'm not dating anyone now." Randy replied, thinking if he told Mickie's parents that he wasn't somebody who dated it wouldn't go over to well.

Gloria smiled a little before looking at Mickie, "Well."

"I'm not ever going to date Randy."

"Mickie we did not raise you to be rude, please apologize to Randy."

Mickie looked over at Randy who seemed to be enjoying this way too much, "I'm sorry Randy."

"Apology accepted." Randy replied with a sly smirk.

"Edge why don't you help Stuart and I bring in some wedding stuff."

"Sure." Edge responded before laughing to himself, he could see Mickie and Randy as a couple, he'd never tell them that but he could.

"Do you need my-"

"That's fine Randy you just stay here."

"I'm sorry." Mickie said as soon as her parents had walked out the door, she couldn't believe they were trying to set her up with Randy of all people.

"Why?" Randy asked, hr knew why but he wanted her to say it.

"Because my parents are trying to set us up."

"Oh really?" Randy asked pretending to be surprised.

"What did you think they were doing?" Mickie found herself asking.

"I don't know, but I have a question."

"Yeah?"

"Would it be so bad for you to date me?" Randy asked, sure he had been with many women, but Mickie not wanting him bugged him.

"Oh my god Randy I didn't mean it like that I meant that-"

"So if I wanted to date you, you would jump at the chance?" Randy asked as he began to have fun teasing her.

"That's not what I meant either, I meant that you aren't really a monogamous kind of person." Mickie said as she avoided Randy's eyes, the last thing she needed was for Randy to humiliate her by finding out she liked him just to reject her.

"You like me." Randy stated as he smirked, it made a lot more sense than her not liking him.

"What?"

"You like me, that's why your being defensive and why your blushing." Randy continued, even though she wasn't blushing before she was now.

"I'm not blushing and I'm not being defensive." Mickie argued.

"I'm not an idiot Mickie so why don't you just admit you like me." Randy replied, wondering if he could actually get her to admit it.

"I would if I did but I don't so I won't."

"So then tell me not to kiss you." Randy said but right after he said it he was shocked, he wanted to kiss Mickie which was weird because Mickie was Mickie.

"What?"

"You heard me." Randy stated before pulling Mickie into a side hug after realizing he couldn't kiss her, "I'm just kidding, relax."

Mickie laughed, "Well I was about to reject your sorry ass."

"Ouch." Randy feigned hurt as he grabbed his chest.

"Come on lets go help them."

"I can't my heart is broken." Randy responded as he continued to play with her.

Mickie rolled her eyes before grabbing Randy hand, "Lets go drama queen."

Mickie felt tears come out of her eyes as she remembered the story, that was back when everything was easier, when she and Randy hadn't complicated everything.


"Hey you're back." Lita stated as Edge came through the front door.

"You miss me?

"How could anyone not miss your arrogance?"

Edge rolled his eyes before sitting next to Lita, "I had to go and talk to Randy."

"Everything okay?"

"Yeah, you know sometimes I can't believe they're together."

"Really?"

"We were all friends for a really long time, then everything got complicated with Randy and Mickie, have did you ever watch Friends or even How I Met Your Mother?"

"From time to time."

"They were kind of like Monica and Chandler, friends for a while then they slept together and started dating, only difference was they argued a lot more."

"Interesting," Lita said before remembering the events that happened earlier, "your dad came by here."

"I'm so sorry." Edge stated, "Let me guess he complained about me not being here and then insulted me."

"Pretty much."

Edge clinched his fist, he hated his dad, "His name being Richard has nothing to do with why I call him Dick."

"Yeah he's kind of harsh." Lita stated remembering some of the things Edge's father had told her.

"You know the classic rich business man, cruel, womanizer, the only difference between him and Randy's dad is that Randy's mom wouldn't put up with his crap."

"So your mom knows he cheats on her?" Lita asked, she had always wondered why women who knew their husband's were cheating stayed with them.

"Of course she does, she just distracts herself by hosting gala's and watching television." Edge said, he loved his mother but it was true.

"Well you can tell her that when we go and see them tomorrow, for drinks." Lita told him thinking she might as well slip that in to their conversation.

"What?"

"It could be fun."

"It'll be a lot of things but fun isn't one of them."

"Come on it isn't going to be that bad, is it?"

"Oh Lita you haven't seen anything yet."

A/N Thoughts? I know it's been forever but all I can say is that writer's block has been a major part of it.
