Chapter 18- I Will
John and Paige quickly ran over and knelt down beside Candice. John pulled out his phone and dialed Matt's number.
"Hello?" Matt answered.
"Matt, Candice just collapsed in the ring!" John shouted into the phone.
"I'm on my way!" Matt said and then hung up.
It didn't take long before Matt and Jeff were running towards the ring. They hopped up in the ring and slid under the ropes. By the time they got by Candice, the guy that was in the audience was in the ring.
"Sir please go back to your seat." John said.
"I'm a doctor. I can help her." the guy said. John stepped aside and he knelt down beside Candice. "Candice can you hear me?"
Candice started moving her head a little. "Candi wake up sweetie." Matt said as he held onto her hand. Her eyes slowly began to flutter open. She looked over at Matt and squeezed his hand.
"Are you feeling ok?" the guy that from the audience asked.
Candice looked up at him and she quickly sat up and grabbed Matt. Matt knew by her reaction that something wasn't right.
"What's wrong?" Matt asked.
"That's him." she said with a horrified look as she stared at the man in front of them.
Matt slowly stood up, Candice doing the same.
"What are you doing here? You belong in jail." Matt said sternly.
"She's my wife!" the guy shouted. When he did Candice flenched and grabbed a hold of Matt's arm.
"No she's not. Your wife died 13 years ago." Matt said.
"Get out of my way so me and my sweet Candice can go home."
"This is Candice Walker, she's not your wife. Your wife passed away."
"Your just saying this. My Candice would never leave me. Would you honey?" he asked looking over at Candice.
"I... I'm not your wife. Like my boyfriend Matt told you, your wife was killed in a car accident 13 years ago." Candice said, trying to hide the fear in her voice.
"Candice, they're brainwashing you! You need to come home with me now! So you'll be safe!" Joey screamed.
"No I'm not! I'm not your freaking wife!" Candice screamed back as she let a few tears roll down her cheek.
"I was afraid this would happen." Joey said as he reached in his pocket. He pulled out a gun and grabbed Matt and put it to his head. "Your coming home with me now!"
"Alright. Just let him go. Please." Candice begged him. She took a few steps forward.
"Candice no!" Matt said.
"SHUT UP!" the guy yelled at Matt.
"Candice, I love you. Do not go with him. Jeff get her and Paige out of here!" Matt said.
The guy pulled the hammer back on the gun. Just after he did everyone heard a gunshot. Candice screamed as she saw Matt and Joey hit the floor. John pulled Candice back and Jeff knelt down beside his brother. Candice kept trying to get to Matt, but John and Paige held her back. All they saw was a large pool of blood. Jeff looked back at Candice and smiled. He pulled his older brother to his feet. Candice cried when she saw him get up and took off running and jumped in his arms. The ring was now swarmed with several cops and medics. John had managed to call 911.
"I thought I lost you." Candice cried into Matt's shoulder. "Why on earth were you going to let that guy shoot you?!" Candice asked as she looked into his eyes.
"I'll will do anything for you." Matt said smiling.
Candice smiled and kissed him. Paige and Jeff walked over to the two.
"What do you say we get out of here?" Jeff asked them.
"I'm all for it." Candice said wiping away all her tears.
"Alright, let's go somewhere fun. Somewhere where we can do something so we can forget about what just happened." Jeff said.
They all agreed to go out to a bar. When they got to the bar they wanted to go to they noticed that it was an open mic night.
"I want to sing." Candice said.
"Alright, go sing." Matt smiled.
"Paige? Come with?"
"Of course." Paige said. The two ran to the stage and Paige grabbed the guitar.
"How is everybody tonight?" Candice asked.
Everyone replied by cheering.
"Well we didn't know we were going to be singing tonight, so we're just gonna wing it. I'd like to dedicate this song to my boyfriend." Candice said and then Paige started playing the guitar.
"I dont need me a basketball player
All I need is somebody thats down for me
And he dont have to have money
His love is just like honey
Its so sweet to me
He can have everything in this world
But he'll sacrafice it all for me
And I made up my mind
Im in love this time
And it feels so real
And I

And I
Know that we wont ever part
Its time, time for us to settle down
And I
Wanna be with him forever
They can say that I am crazy
For makin him mah baby
But that's how it's gone be
See I done been through many changes
But this one I aint changing
It's gon' stay the same
I can have everything in this world
But I'll sacrafice it all for him
And I made up my mind
Im in love this time
And it feels so real
And I
Know that he wont break my heart
And I
Know that we wont ever part
Its time, time for us to settle down
And I
Wanna be with him forever
I love you
And all of the things that you do
Oh baby please

So believe me (I do)

Cause I love you (I love you)
And every lil thing baby (you do)

They don't know how I feel
Cause I know this is real
And I

And I
Know that we wont ever part
Its time, time for us to settle down
And I
Wanna be with him forever
And I
Know that he wont break my heart
And I
Know that we wont ever part
Its time, time for us to settle down
And I
Wanna be with him forever."
