Chapter 7:
Chris took me to his room, he gave me painkillers and water as I cried my eyes out. I was shaking uncontrollably. He held me, he didn't ask me to explain, he waited until I was ready to speak.
"Kyle did this," I whispered.
Chris's eyes widened in bewilderment, "He hit you?"
I nodded, Chris was know standing up ready to leave the room, "No Chris stay with me." My voice was so low but he heard me. He sat back on the bed and held me as I began to tell him the whole story from the beginning, and how obsessive Kyle had become to an extent where he would turn down my invitations to go out and ban me from seeing people. The only reason he made me go to the pharmacy was because he was lazy and I could smell alcohol on him. Now I realised he was an alcoholic.
Chris was there all night with me, I couldn't sleep, could anyone. I felt free, I felt like I had just got out of prison and got my life back. I felt like I could be me again. I was in more pain then imaginable but I was happy, I was out. Some women would put up with abuse for years and I had gotten out in a few weeks.
In the morning, Chris told me I had to make a report, Kyle could not work in the WWE anymore it wasn't fair on me, so he called Shane and left us to it. Chris said he was one phone call away and he'd be back in half an hour, giving me enough time to talk to Shane.
"Violence is one of the things we do not apprehend in the business, and I can obviously see that Kyle hit you," Shane said bluntly. "How long?"
"Since I got here, his temper, his alcohol problems all caused the violence."
Shane's voice became softer, "Is this why you were in pain yesterday?"
I nodded.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Shane asked. "I'm not a monster, I would have helped."
"I was scared and I thought he would…" tears began to flow.
Shane handed me a tissue, I flinched when he touched me, I guess I would do that a lot, the only guy I didn't flinch to was Chris and probably because he was the one who helped me.
"There were no witnesses to the incident so usually not much can be done, however you're the evidence and even though in court it would be your word against his, we can fire him from the WWE for many reasons," Shane said.
I nodded, I just wanted him out of my life, "I want him gone, and all this to be over."
Shane left soon after that. I saw myself in the mirror. A huge purple bruise on my cheek, my hand was full of little cuts, especially my left hand. My ribs were bandaged, my legs felt like jelly as I looked at my self. I had pulled a mental curtain over what had happened last night, I didn't really remember. All I did remember was screaming, shouting, and a lot of glass. Before I could pull my mental curtain open, Chris returned.
"How you feeling?" he asked me.
"Like I've been hit by a bus," I replied honestly.
"Sorry stupid question," he said sitting down opposite me.
"No it wasn't I'm being…groucy," I replied. "Thank you Chris, I really needed you today and you came through for me, I appreciate it."
"I told you Alicia, I'm always gonna be here for you," Chris replied.
I smiled, he was sweet, but I wasn't ready. I didn't want another relationship, I couldn't trust a man again, not even Chris. God knows I want to but I can't.
"You want me to get you anything?" he asked.
"No," I replied. "Stephanie just texted me," I said looking at my phone. "I can have a few weeks off if I want."
"Well do you want a few weeks off, it might do you good."
"It might, I dunno for now I just want to stay here. I mean what am I gonna do at home alone? Mums gone to Australia to visit her friend for who knows how many months, Shawn's at his house but I'll still be home alone."
"What if I come with you, I mean if you want, I could," Chris said. "I'd have to leave for RAW but I could come back."
I looked at him. "Would you mind?"
"No, I'd love to be in Alicia Michaels house."
"Thanks Chris, I owe you."
"That's what friends are for," he said his hand holding mine.
I looked into his beautiful blue eyes. This was perfect. He had even booked our tickets for tomorrow. Randy arrived to visit me and with him Dave came.
"You look bad," Randy said.
"Thank you Orton," I chuckled.
"Point out the obvious," Dave sighed. "Randy's a bit of an idiot please ignore him."
"Sure why not?" I laughed.
"If I could get my hands on him I'd kill him," Randy said.
"Yea join the queue," Chris said.
"Didn't you hit him earlier today, I swear Jeff and Matt were pulling you off him in the hallways."
My face turned to Chris's, "You did what?"
"I um…tripped and hit his face," Chris tried.
"Nice try," I replied. I sighed, "Thanks."
"Anytime."
Randy and Dave sat for a few more minutes, both were gentlemen, both sweet and nice. Trish visited as did Jeff, Lita, Matt, Nikki, Andrea and a few others. I had to sign some papers so I had to visit Shane in the presidential suite which was not at all comfortable, so Shane said he'd come visit me and he decided to arrive when Chris had gone to get us some dinner in the evening.
"You just sign these to say you get a leave of absence," he smiled at me.
I was standing up now. I was by the desk. Shane had poured himself and me some wine. I took the glass and signed all the papers.
"Great," Shane smiled. "Means you get a few weeks off, if you need more call me."
"Thanks Shane, for being nice and doing this so quickly," I smiled. "Nice guy today huh?"
"Yea don't let that spread, it'll ruin my reputation," Shane grinned.
I laughed. Then he stood face to face with me, his wine in one end, our noses nearly touching, "Well I guess this is goodbye for now."
For some reason my heart was beating faster then normal, "Yea this is." I replied.
He took a step back, he said, "Take care Alicia." Then he left.
I was confused, no I wasn't interested in him was I? He wasn't married anymore so I could be, but I wasn't really.
Chris returned with Chinese, "I got us a film."
"Cool which one?" I asked.
"A few Just my Luck, She's a Man, a few other chick flicks and The Ring, See No Evil and this other one." He handed me the film The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
I smiled, he was a sweet guy. He was an amazing guy what am I talking about! He wanted to come home with me, to look after me. How can anyone be sweeter.
"Eat or film first?" he asked,
Kyle never asked me, it was always what he wanted, guess I should forget that memory. "Eat, I'm starving to death!"
Chris grinned as he started to unpack the food. We laughed and ate and for the first time in ages I felt safe and cared for. I didn't want this feeling to end. I really didn't.
After dinner, Hunter arrived to check on Alicia afterall he owed it to Shawn.
"Well he's fired," Hunter said. "Officially and he's left."
"Good riddance."
"I was surprised how fast Shane managed to do all this, he usually takes forever."
"Yea well, as long as he's gone I don't care."
Hunter smiled, "I'm sorry I didn't figure it out earlier."
"It's fine, don't blame yourself Hunter," I knew what he was like, worse then Uncle Shawn.
"Yea, so your going home for a while?"
"Yea, a while," I replied.
"Me and Steph gonna be at Shawn's after RAW next week, so we will see you there."
"You mean extra bodies means extra protection," I said, Uncle Shawn loved saying that to me.
Hunter laughed, "Alright well goodnight Allie and you as well Chris."
"Night," Chris and I chorused.
Hunter left. I sat comfortably on my bed, I had my laptop on me again, Chris had got it for me. The anonymous emailer had replied:
A friend. I like you, I hate him. I'm not your enemy.
"Chris," I called.
He came out of the bathroom, "What's wrong?"
"Read this, its that person that emailed me, he emailed me again so I asked him who he was and this is his reply," I showed Chris the email.
"What's that meant to mean?" Chris asked. "When was it sent," he looked at the date. "Yesterday evening."
"What I don't get is who the him is," I said.
