Oh my gosh less than 24 hours until Survivor Series!!!!!!! I probably won't be able to sleep tonight, lol. Well here is chapter 15... hope you enjoy :-D
Chapter 15- The Letters
Candice just watched her friends leave. She just kept telling herself it would only be a month. While driving down the rode to her parents house, she looked down in the cup holder at the ticket Matt had given her in case she had changed her mind. She couldn't help but smile. She focused her attention back because she didn't want to total Matt's nice car. He told her she could drive it until she was able to get hers fixed. He also offered her to stay at his house until she got an apartment. She thanked him, but said she'd stay with her parents. She still didn't feel safe with her stalker still being out there. She finally pulled up to her parents house.
"Candice." David said, surprised to see her.
"Hey Davey. Mom and dad home?" she asked.
"No. Why are you here?"
"Well if you want me to leave just say so."
"No.. I'm just surprised to see you still here."
"What's that suppose to mean?"
"I mean I'm surprised you didn't go with them."
"I feel like I need to stay here and figure things out. I feel like there's something missing."
"Love?" he asked.
Candice shot him a funny look.
"Why can't you admit it?! Your in love! You need to open your eyes on this past week Candice. What is missing just left on a plane to Atlanta!"
Candice just stared at him. Shocked that he was saying all of this. David reached over and grabbed Candice's arm and led her down to the basement. He pulled out a box and put it on a table and pointed to it. "Open it." he said.
"What is it?"
"Just open it."
Candice opened the box and saw a whole bunch of letters. She pulled one out and saw it was addressed to her.
"Go ahead." David said.
She opened the envelope and read:
Dear Candi,
Things are going good right now! We both wish you were here with us though. Yesterday we signed our contract with the WWE. It was amazing! It feels like everything is falling into place. The only thing missing is you. Me and Jeff are both hoping for a show near Cameron so we can go see you again. Last time we were there we swung by your place and your parents said you were visiting some family. I guess that's what we get for not giving you a heads up. Well I hate to cut this letter short but I have to get some rest before practice tomorrow. Jeff's yelling from the other room to tell me to tell you he said hi and he loves you. I love you too, and hope to hear from you!
Love Always,
Matt and Jeff
Candice slowly folded the letter back up and placed it back in the envelope. "So the past 13 years they did keep in touch. I was the one who didn't."
"Candice you can't blame yourself. It's dad. He never liked them so he intercepted the letters and kept them from you."
"David."
"Yeah?" he asked.
"How fast do you think you can get me to the airport?" she asked with a smile.
David smiled and pulled out his keys. On the way out to the truck she grabbed the ticket and then hopped in David's pickup. On the drive up there Candice decided she was going to surprise them. She was going to trade the first class for a coach seat, that way they wouldn't know she was on the plane. When they got to the airport Candice jumped out of the truck.
"Thank you. Thanks for showing me the letters. You were right, the thing that is missing is on the plane."
"No problem sis. I'm sorry for the way I've treated you for the past years."
"Well if I forgave Jeff and Matt so I think I'd be able to forgive you." she said.
"Well have a safe flight."
"Thanks. I love you."
"Love you too." he said and then hugged his sister.
Candice waved and then took off running so she couldn't miss her flight.
