Welcome to My Truth
chapter 9 : Mickie's Casa.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
I took out my Sidekick Slide and dialed my mother's phone. I haven't spoken to her in a while, and I was worried if she was alright. I missed her so much, since I haven't really had a lot of girl talk if you know what I mean. ringg.. rinng...rinngg...
" Hello?" my mother's voice was a relief to me.
" Mama!" I exclaimed through the phone. " how are you?"
" Baby, I'm fine, how about you, I haven't heard of you in a while."
" I know, I've been busy lately, and hanging out with John and stuff."
" So are you getting along with him more?"
" Yeah, he's actually a nice guy, I didn't like him at first."
" Mhm, are you still fighting with him?"
" No not really, its not like major fights. I haven't fought with him for a while."
" Ok, Good. Honey, whatever your father says, goes. I don't want to hear that you're being a wise ass..."
" But I'm not."
" You better not, please behave baby. I have to go, I love you honey."
" I love you too Momma." I finished off and heard her hang up the phone. I closed my cellphone and threw in my black coach purse. I let out a weary sigh, and buckled my gold studded belt around my waist. I tousled my curly hair, and clipped up my bangs. I smiled, as I finished getting ready. John told me we were going out to Mickie James' house. I was pretty excited because she had such a bubbly personality, and had great fashion taste. Sadly, they were all going to be in the pool, and I'm stuck with a sprained knee, watching them. I guess it won't be that bad. It'll be fun just to make fun of how idiotic they act in the pool. I wonder whose going to be there? Of course Tyler is, and Randy, they're riding with us as always. Putting on my gold nikes air forces, John entered the room brushing his teeth. Toothpaste ran down his chin, and he wuped it with his toothpaste bringing it back into his mouth.
" You're so disgusting!" I commented scrunching my nose. He stuck his tongue out, showing off the watery toothpaste.
" Eww!!" I screeched, and he came closer to me with his tongue hanging out like a dog.
" Ok, seriously John put that thing away!" I seriously said, with a disgusted face. He laughed with his tongue still out, and he ran into the bathroom. Spit, Spit, Gargle,Splat
He came back out with his face nice and clean, and his breath smelling minty fresh! He took his small gym bag and stuffed some things in there.
" Did you eat already?" he asked curiously.
I nodded my head, thinking of the delicious bagel I had this morning. " Yupp."
" Ok, save your appetite though, Mickie is a beast in cooking." he added. Yes, a good home cooked meal tonight! I haven't had one of those since I've came here. I'm not saying what I've eaten the past weeks, wasn't good, its just you need home cooked meals once in a while. Its a craving that has been growing since the day I left West Newbury.
We continued talking for a bit, until there was a knock on the door. I rushed to door with my crutches, and answered it. Opening the door, I saw the two Ortons dressed in the same shirts, but different swim shorts, and sneakers.
" Hey guys!" I greeted with a friendly grin, they came through the door not letting go of their things.
" How's your knee Hayden?" questioned a concerned Tyler.
" Its doing good, still swollen." I replied in a glum voice. I hated being hurt with a stupid sprained knee. I gotta tell you, it was so hard sleeping with your leg straight. It was one of the worst nights I've ever had.
" Oh man, so you're not going swimming?" a ditzy thirteen year old said.
" Ty, just shut up!" Randy retorted rolling his eyes. Tyler glared at his dad, and turned his attention back to me.
" Yeah I know stupid question, don't mind my dad, he's pissed off again." he assured me nicely.
" Oh, its ok, did you hear, we have to start studying next Monday!" I groaned in annoyance.
" Its not that hard, the program. I've done it for seven years." he continued as he sat on the couch. I stood with my crutches, resting my elbows against the handles. Why did John and Randy have to take such a god damn long time! They were going to spend the day together anyway!
" You kids ready to go?" John's voice entered the room, as he rushed with his bag and car keys. Randy was behind him with a pretty pissed off look. I wonder what was up with him? I don't know, but he was taking it out on his son, which got Tyler a bit perked down than usual.
" Yeah, lets go..." I said as we all left the hotel.
We boarded the car, and headed to Mickie's casa. I sat alongside Tyler, the bags in the middle. He stared out the window, watching the different kinds of cars past. The guys talked about the cars, as usual. It was the same old guy talk. It was always about cars, the football game, and all those other men things. THe music was even manly. I couldn't stand it at all. I took out my Lime Green Ipod and put in the earphones. I put it on shuffle and listened to " CrushCrushCrush" by Paramore. Its a sick song, I tell you.

I sat in the same seat for nearly two hours. I had the long wooden bench all to myself, my legs up resting on a fluffy pillow. I watched the group swim in the pool, having a blast. The laughter, splashing and all made me feel a bit jealous. On the other hand, it was fun to sit back with a cool cup of lemonade and watch Tyler being thrown around like a volleyball. One guy would take him , and throw him to the other side. The next one took him and threw him back to the otherside. It was like Water Potato, except the potato was Tyler. I anxiously watched John and Ashley talk, he would always be smiling when he saw her. I could tell he likes her a lot. I don't know how she doesn't notice the way he stares at her, and flirts. Maybe, its normal for her to see him act that way. They looked like the perfect couple, they're celebrity name could be Jashley! How cute! Speaking of couples, Mickie and Ken were very close, I don't know if they are together or anything. I could be wrong, I'm not so good at guessing. haha, remember when I thought Jeff and Ashley were the punk couple, I was very wrong. Turns out Jeff is with Candice Michelle. Interesting Mix don't you think, I would have never thought they would be together. Then again, you never know who you will end up with, or who people will be with. Its one of those things, that aren't predictable as can be.
I leaned my head back, and adjusted my oversized gold sunglasses. I took a sip of my lemonade, and placed it down on the table next to me. I continued to watch the group play volleyball. The Divas vs The Wrestlers. This game has been going on for about fifteen minutes. They were tied for the last point.
" Let's go girls!" I chanted with a huge smile. The guys looked over at me and shook their heads.
" Your supposed to route for us ! You're dad is on our team." Jeff scolded trying to splash me. Thank god, I was far enough from the pool.
" And that really doesn't matter! The girls are way better players than you guys." I retorted defending their skills.
" Thanks Hayden, you rock!" Ashley shouted from the far side of the pool. John winked at me and they continued the game. The volleys were perfect, no one dropped the ball. Until, Mickie spiked the ball toward Randy. He was caught off guard completely, missing the ball. SPLASH!
" Yes we won!!" they exclaimed jumping up and down in circles. The guys groaned in frustration at the loss. I grinned and nodded my head to the victory. A well played game by both teams. The group swam for a little bit, and played innocent chicken. I laughed as Tyler sat on Torrie's shoulders. It was Ty against Ashley. It was sucha funny match.
" You're going down Punkie!" Tyler taunted sticking his tongue out at her.
" Oh Please Ty, don't act like your cocky father." Ashley shot back adjusting her pink bathing suit bra.
" Lets Play chicken!" Randy yelled in a playful voice.
The two began fighting, however, Tyler had some tricks up his sleeve, he poked the diva in her ticklish spot causing her to flinch a bit. John held her up tightly with all his power. However, Torrie started to talk to John, trying to distract him. Tyler continued to poke her, until she grabbed his finger and bit it. He yelped in small pain wagging it in the air. With a hard shove, Tyler fell underwater, with Torrie shaking her head at the kid.
" Gosh Tyler, I thought you were stronger." she teased winking at Randy.
" I'm sorry, I promise next time I'll win Torr!" he apologized breathing heavy.
She gave him a huge hug and a kiss on the cheek. " No Problem Ty." I saw his face turn red after the kiss. Awh, he's either embarassed her flustered with a huge crush on the diva. He looked back at me and did the " kissy" face. Gosh, he is such a flirt. I rose an eyebrow and just smiled. What else was I supposed to do, give him the " kissy" face back? Hell no!

Crunch Crunch Crunch.. Mmmm! I chewed my food, savoring the delcious taste of shrimp skewers and a medium well steak, along with amazing white rice and black beans. I have never eaten anything like it, I didn't want the food to end. Sadly, my plate was almost empty, and so were the seconds. Guys eat like animals, and the girl barely eat sometimes. Ashley took a whole big plae of food, however Candice didn't take so much. I thought that was a bit disrespectful not taking a lot of food. Oh well, I bet that's how she keeps herself thin. She probably eats very healthy, and not alot of grease. This meal was full of greasy meat that made my mouth water by the scent of it. Finishing my plate, I left in front o me, and sat back and listened to the conversations. The guys talking about the usual, and the girls with the latest gossip. Candice glanced over at me, and decided to pull me in to the conversation.
" So Hayden, when you left Massachussetts, did you leave a boyfriend?" a curious brunnette asked. The dinner table went silent, since the men wanted to listen in on my personal lovevel ife. Honestly, I didn't have one, remember my mother was strict. I nodded my head and took a sip of pink lemonade.
" Yes he was fifteen years old. I loved him " I lied. let's see their reaction. John's eyes widened and he almost choked on his shrimp. The divas awed at my answer
" John, your daughter attracts older men." Jeff teased nudging a disabeliefed Tyler.
" Are you kidding me?" Tyler said. " Then again ,you're hot so I wouldn't blame them.
Oh god Ty! I could feel my cheeks fluster to the colour pink. I hope they don't notice it. I looked down and smiled.
" See look at her dimples!" The mini Orton pointed out.
" Ok, Why didn't you're mother tell me you had a boyfriend." John questioned after taking a long sip of his beer.
I shrugged my shoulders and brightly responded. " You never asked, and it wouldn't matter to you."
Oh my god, that caused a lot of looks from the people in the table. John shook his head disappointed at how fresh I answered him. Don't be a wise ass. I recalled the sentence my mother told me. Damn, I really do have to watch my mouth, and think before I say anything.
" Lets change the subject.." Ashley's voice broke the silence. " Wanna play guitar hero later?"
" Oh my gosh I love that game!" I said in a happy tone. John glared at me, and finished his plate of food.
" Cool, we should play that later." Ashley nodded her head.
" I bet I can whip your ass anyday!" Randy blurted out at random.
" Wanna bet on that Orton?" The " Punk" replied with a teasing attitude.
Randy smirked as the others laughed at the bickering friends. At least the attention was off of me for now. Once everyone finished their food, I helped Mickie clean up the paltes. I placed them in the dishwasher, and cleaned up the table.
" Thanks for helping Hayden." she thanked me showing off her million dollar smile.
" No problem, my pleasure." I told her as she gave me a small hug.
" Lets go watch them play guitar hero." she said as we ran to the large living room. I sat on the floor, spreading my legs out. We continued watching, and each took turns. I demolished everyone in that game. I'll can tell you I'm the queen of Guitar Hero. My biggest competition was Randy. He was a beast at this game. I couldn't believe how good he was. I versed him twice, and he beat me once.
" Okay, its getting late, and I got an autograph signing tommorow." John looked at his watch.
" Alright, then lets go." Randy said putting the guitar down.
" Thank you a fun time!" I thanked everyone espicially Mickie for inviting us to her house.
" Anytime sweetie, I'll see you Monday." the perky brunnette told me.
With that, we left off to the hotel room around 10:00 PM. I could feel my eyes closing by the minute. It was a long night, and I knew if I was awake by the time we made it to the hotel room,I would be in trouble. So the best thing I could do was fall asleep in the car.
