Next Morning

I woke up and walked out to the kitchen, only to find nobody. I looked at the table and there was a cup of coffee and a note. I looked at the note that was written in my mothers hand writing.

Hunny,

I've gone out with my sister, you're father went to work and will be back later on. I'll be back sometime before 4. I made you coffee, but I'm sure it's cold because you're lazy and sleep all damn day. I'm leaving it's 10:00 right now. Be good and have a nice day

Love- Mom

I looked at the clock and sure enough it was already 11:45. "Yep coffee is nice and cold" i said to myself when i dipped my finger in the cup. I went to the bathroom and took a shower, and got ready for the day. I called up Charlotte and we had decided to meet each other downtown. As i was driving down the street, i noticed the gas station that they must have just put there, see I've been gone for a while. I noticed a man who looked awfully familiar to me, so curiosity got the best of me and i pulled in to get a drink. I walked out of the car and into the station when i saw the man again, he of course had to be at the same place i was heading too. I looked at him and smiled when he smiled back at me and said my name softly.

"Dave" i said simply. I knew i shouldn't have stop. God dammit i cursed at myself. You want to know who Dave was? The ex boyfriend, the first "real" love. Yeah perfect this guy was eyeing me up and down

"Rachael you look great" the man managed to say

"Thank's Dave, so how are you?"

"I'm great, how are you doing?"

"I'm good, just got home for a couple weeks"

"Oh really? Where did you head off to anyways, you left this town as fast as you could after you graduated."

"Yeah i went to Louisville Kentucky"

"Oh, why? What's there?"

"I went to Ohio Valley Wrestling school there for training, and now you'll be seeing me on TV in a few months."

"Oh really. Wow that's great" he said, I honestly thought he said it blankly. A little jealous possibly too. Seeing as he's still sitting at home in this shit town and has gone no where. I had to break up with him when i was fifteen, he was getting too involved in sex and drugs.

"Well i must get going, I'm going to meet a friend" i said knowing fully well he'd think it was a man. He was the kind of guy that would accuse you of everything in the book, simply because he was so insecure.

"Oh... ok have fun"

I nodded and walked straight to the cashier and paid for my soda and rushed to my car. I drove out into the main street and headed to the other city, what was only ten minutes from my house. I went to mine and Charlottes meeting place and found her with a new puppy in her hands.

"Char, i didn't know you had a damn dog" i said as i approached her. I must've scared the crap out of her because she seemed to have jumped a mile.

"Oh my.. You scared me you little devil!" she said as she put the puppy on the ground and reached for me and gave me the tightest hug ever. "I missed you" she said as she pulled away.

"Oh I've missed you too. It's so good to see you" i said. We decided to go out to a outside café and have a little brunch. We caught up on things. She told me all about college. All about her new boyfriend, who she thought was going to be a very serious relationship. I told her about the WWE and my contract, me leaving in two weeks. She was bummed out she said, because she's home for two more months. After a couple of hours of walking around town after we were done eating, I decided that i should get back, i looked at my watch and it said 3:45.

"Oh crap, gotta run... mother should be home in fifteen minutes and you know her, she'll have a heart attack with no note saying where i went too." Charlotte laughed and hugged me goodbye

"It was so good to see you Rach! You better call me before you leave!"

"I will, don't worry." i said and kissed her cheek and left to go find where I had parked.

I headed out to the direction to where i parked, took me a few minutes to find the car. Finally i found my little black Jetta. I got in and adjusted my mirrors, i looked out my rear view mirror to check if it was ok to go when i saw my good old family friend. Randy Orton. What was he doing back in town? I thought to myself. I just ignored my thoughts and drove right by him, only to be seen by him.

When i arrived home, I crashed in my bed and slept for a couple hours. When i woke up, i found my father out in the living room.

"Hi daddy" i said as i walked up to him and gave him a hug.

"Hey Sweetie, You'd never guess who i seen and talked to today"

Oh Jesus... who did he talk to? I said to myself. "Who dad?"

"Randy! He's back in town and boy does he look good, he's gotten huge"

"Dad... i don't want to really hear about Randy, you know that"

"Yes i know baby, but I sort of told him to get a hold of you because you two are both going to Connecticut... Sort of at the same time too"

I almost spit the coffee that i had just drank out when he said the last few words. Same time? No way... it couldn't be... he's wrestling now too?

"Daddy... he's going to the same place I'm going too? The same Stamford Connecticut?

"Hunny... there is only one Stamford Connecticut, so i guess so" he said and smiled and walked away.
