Alright guys, I believe this is the longest chapter I've wrote for a story in A LONG TIME! But I need to get this done to explain a lot of things about Alexis. The song fit perfectly so I thought I use it..well I didn't realize how long my muse would make this chapter. almost 10 pgs. But anyways i loved writing it. So read and review...read and enjoy...The song is Story Of My Life by Rich Cornin the lead singer of LFO who passed away recently and this is kind of a my way to tribute him since I listened to the group. So please read and review...let me know...thank you! Oh yea, I only own Alexis and December that's it..
Nothing seems to bring me back to you
No matter what I do
No matter what you do
I had my chance but they took it all away
Now I don't know what to do
Alexis looked around the hotel room as Randy walked out of the room leaving her alone. Taking a deep breath she looked out the window letting in some lights from the outside. She stood up slowly and walked over to the window wrapping the towel around her body.
"How in the hell did I get here?" Alexis said as she held onto the sheet tighter.
[verse 1]
They say hindsight is 20/20
And that's plenty good advice
But in time we all roll dice
When I was 15 I fell in love with that noise on the radio
It drove me crazy YO!

"Are you ok?" Adam said looking at his sister as she sat there laying in a hospital bed with tears running down her cheeks.
All Alexis did was stare at her brother, Adam grabbed a hold of his sister's hand and gave it a squeeze.
"What am I going to do?" Alexis said as her voice broke. "I worked my ass off to get here and now, what am I going to do? I've got a broken neck." She added.
"Wrestling will be here when you get back." Adam said kissing her hand. "I promise, I went through the same thing remember?" He added.
Alexis just looked away wiping the tears as they fell down her cheek. Adam went to say something but stopped and looked at the door as it opened.
"Hey."
Alexis looked up to see December walking into the room. Walking into the room December put a small thing of flowers on the stand in front of her.
"How are you?" December said ignoring Adam as he just sat there looking at the woman in front of him.
"I'm scared Dec." Alexis said as December just stared at her sister in law.
December looked at Adam for a second then looked back at Alexis who was how holding onto her hand tight. Giving her a gentle smile December sat down on the edge of the bed causing Alexis to look at her.
"I promise, when your done with the surgery you can come stay with me." December said looking at her. "It's a bit lonely." She added looking at Adam for only a split second.
Of course I knew that I didn't have a chance
I'll make it one day no matter what the circumstance
Cause I just couldn't say no
Crumpled up paper on my bedroom floor
Song after song
Lyric for lyric
My dream was out of reach man I couldn't get near it
~*FlashBack*~
December gave Alexis a smile as the doctor slowly took off the neck brace she had been wearing.
"Doctor Youngblood is a great doctor and miracle worker." December said with a small laugh. "He worked on Adam and a lot of the guys from there." She added.
"Alright Alexis, I'm going to turn your neck, I want you to tell me if it hurts." Dr. Youngblood said as Alexis nodded at him.
Slowly turning her neck Alexis just moved with him, backing up slowly he let her neck up and she looked at him with a smile on her face.
"I want to see you move your neck like I just did." Dr. Youngblood said looking at her. "I know you've been not wearing the neck brace since it's been almost a year since you had the surgery and it seems to me that your neck is doing wonderful." He added.
Alexis smiled at him as she moved her neck the same motion he did. December was grinning right along side of Alexis as Doctor Youngblood looked at her chart.
"Alright Ms. Copeland it appears that your neck is doing wonderful, I want to do another follow up appointment with you within the next two weeks to make sure that I made the right choice about taking your brace off completely." Doctor Youngblood said as Alexis nodded.
Until one day I was standing right there
Can someone please tell me how the hell I got here?
[bridge]
So here's the story of my life
Paint a picture in black and white
Never thought that I'd bring you here
Now everything just seems so clear

"I love you John." Alexis said looking at the man in front of her. "I'm glad that I've got you." she added with a smile.
"You've got me as long as you need me baby." John said letting his Boston accent slip just a bit.
She smiled at him as he grabbed a hold of her and kissed her head as he held her from behind. December walked up to the couple and grinned as she waved at both of them.
"Glad to see somebody happy." December said smiling at her.
"I am just happy to be cleared to be able to wrestle." Alexis said with a huge grin on her face. "I can't wait to get back in there to prove to the WWE crowd that Ebony is better then ever." She added.
"I'm glad to see that you are completely cleared." December said hugging her sister in law. "I've got to talk to lawyer I'll catch up with you guys later ok?" She added.
Alexis nodded at her as John waved at her as she walked away.
"I can't believe she is filing for divorce." Alexis said looking over her shoulder. "I thought they would be together forever." She added.
"I am not shocked because what went on with him, Amy, and Matt." John said as Alexis nodded a little bit as she watched her sister in law's car pull away from the parking lot.

Took a
Long time and a lot of advice
But then you realize people aren't so nice
Tired of living, life's a struggle baby
But If you look on the bright side...

"Doctor Lisa is calling." December said holding the phone. "She says that it's very important that she speaks to you." She added.
Alexis put her shirt down on the bed since she was packing her bags to go back on the road.
"I asked if I could take a message since you were packing, she said on that she needed to talk to you now." December said holding the phone out to her friend. "So here, I'll go down stairs to give you some privacy." She added.
"Alright." Alexis replied taking the phone.
Alexis watched as December left her alone in her room.
"Hello Doctor Lisa, It is Alexis." Alexis said as she started packing her bag once more. "You need me to come into the office? I am packing at the moment, I leave tomorrow morning I start back work." she added.
Zipping the bag shut she straighten up as she looked around the room.
"You want me to come in now? Alright I guess I can." Alexis said hanging up the phone.
Walking out of the room December stood up from the couch as she saw Alexis appear at the bottom of the stairs.
"Come on, we've got to go to the doctor's office." Alexis said as she grabbed her keys from her table. "She told me to come today since I'm leaving tomorrow and I might want to bring a friend." She added.
December nodded at her as she followed her out of the house grabbing her bag as she went.

Nothing seems to bring me back to you
No matter what I do
No matter what I do
[verse 2]
Now i'm driving down route three
Back to the drill again
Off to the studio
Gotta get my fill again
Nowadays life is way more tough
I did all i could do but it wasn't enough
I went down to Orlando and I never looked back
Met a few thieves and they took me off track
I saw things that you wouldn't believe
But when the money was gone
That's when they told me to leave
I met a girl and I broke her heart
Just a day in the life of the next pop star
And then they said that I might not live
~*Flash Back*~
"Doctor Lisa, you called me here on my day that I was suppose to go back to work." Alexis said looking at her. "You had me bring a friend, I asked if this was serious, you told me that you would prefer to talk to me in person, what is going on?" She added.
December sat down in the chair against the wall as Alexis looked at her doctor who was just looking at her.
"Ms. Copeland, I figured that you would like to hear what the test found in person instead of me telling me telling you over the phone." Doctor Lisa said looking at her. "You have had a small lump on your breast the last time you came in here. We took some test and did a mammogram, You have breast cancer.' She added.
Alexis stumbled a bit and grabbed a hold of the desk in front of her.
"I have what?" Alexis said pushing her hair away from her face. "Cancer? What?" She added.
The doctor handed her the paper in front of her. December stood up and walked over to Alexis as she just stared at the paper with a blank expression on her face.
"You have what we call Invasive Breast Cancer." Doctor Lisa said as Alexis sat down in the chair in front of the desk and grabbed hold of the folder in front of her. "It penetrated through the breast tissue. I am not hundred percent certain but I believe we caught this to late. How long did you notice that lump before you came in?" She added.
Alexis looked as if she adding somethings in her head.
"A few weeks maybe." Alexis said as tears started running down her cheeks.
Doctor Lisa looked at Alexis studying her face then looked at December who was taking all of this in.
"Alexis, you had to have notice this before because you are in stage two of this because the tumor is 5 centimeters." Doctor Lisa said as looking at her.
"Something has got to give." Alexis said shaking her head. "I'm going to dye might as well be now." She added.
Shaking her head December touched her friend's arm and looked at her.
"You are not going to die Alexis." December said looking at. "Let them do their jobs and you'll be fine." She added.
"How in the hell do you fucking know?" Alexis said looking at her.
~*End Of Flashback*~
Oh Man
Something's gotta give

So here's the story of my life
Paint a picture in black and white
Never thought that I'd bring you here
Now everything just seems so clear
Took a
Long time and a lot of advice
~*FlashBack*~
"You don't have a damn clue what I'm going through!" Alexis shouted as she looked at December who was standing there looking at her. "You have no idea what it is like to take chemical in your body and look in the mirror as your hair comes out clumps!" She added.
"I am not saying that I do know, I'm saying rest for a bit." December said looking at her.
"I have cancer December, I'm not some damn human being who could use a good nights sleep." Alexis shouted at her. "Why don't you go back to my brother already and take care of his ass?" She added.
December just looked at her for a second before shaking her head.
"This has nothing to do with Adam and me. So don't bring it up." December said walking away from her.
"You guys are already in it because of me. I've got breast cancer December and you take care of me there for you are involved just like Adam when he stops by and takes cares of me." Alexis said looking at her.
~*End of Flash Back*~
But then you realize people aren't so nice
Tired of living, life's a struggle baby
But If you look on the bright side...
"Look on the bright side of what Adam?" Alexis shouted as she threw a glass at her brother's head. "I've lost a career! I've lost damn part of my body to a damn cancer that nobody can find a cure for! I've lost the damn one person I love! So don't you fucking dare tell me to look on the bright side." She added.
"You didn't lose your career Alex, you still have it because Vince told you before that you still have a job with the WWE." Adam said trying to reason with baby sister. "You've made a appointment with another doctor remember? You told me your self that you were going to go see a doctor about seeing if they can fix what was taken away. As for the the person you love, Alexis it happens it is called life." He added.
Alexis looked at him with a glare on her face before shaking her head.
"So it was just life that you couldn't keep your dick in your pants and fuck Amy huh?" Alexis said with a hiss. "The woman that you claim to love so damn much is sitting on the sidelines watching you fuck up your relationship period by fucking your friend's girlfriend of six years! Come on Adam don't you fucking dare tell me that it's life, you knew what you were doing. I love you Adam because your my brother but I hate you because your fucking up your damn future." She added.
"Just like your fucking up your life?" Adam said with a raised eye brow at her. "You don't have a damn clue what went down between Amy, Matt, and Me so don't assume you know everything." He added.
"I know enough to know that your letting the one person who actually care about you slip through your damn fingers Adam!" Alexis shouted at him. "Just like I did!" She added.
Adam looked at her shaking his head, running his hand through his hair he looked at her.
"So you think that you were suppose to end up with John?" Adam said as Alexis looked up at him as he mentioned his friend's name. "If you guys were suppose to be together don't you think that you were suppose to be the one he married and not that Liz? You would be wearing that ring on your finger not her wearing it." He added.
"Shut the fuck up Adam!" Alexis shouted at her brother. "You know nothing about what in the hell happen between John and Me. You can say all the shit you want but oh boy you know so little." She added.
~*End*~
[chorus]
Nothing seems to bring me back to you
No matter what I do
No matter what you do
I had my chance but they took it all away
Now I don't know what to do
Don't know what to do

"Who in the hell pissed in my sister's corn flakes?" Adam said as Alexis walked off leaving him alone.
December looked up at her estranged husband rolled her eyes as he looked at her.
"What?" Adam said looking down at her. "Why in the hell are you even here? The surgery she had was a few months ago. She has new boobs and she loves them why are we even here?" He added.
"Adam your sister was pregnant." December said causing Adam to almost freeze completely. "She is moody because of that but mostly she is angry because the baby was Johns." She added.
Adam raised and eye brow as he looked at her.
"Was?" Adam asked as December nodded.
"Yea was, she lost it." December said looking down. "She went for her check up to find out that she had a baby inside of her but there was no heart beat. She was far along it appeared. It was a boy." She added.
Adam looked at his wife with wide eyes as he turned around and went after his sister leaving December alone.

Causing her to jump and shake her head at the thoughts that her brought her back a knock started sounding louder. She walked over to the door and peeked around the corner to see John standing there looking at her.
"Is it true that you slept with Randy?" John asked as Alexis stood there looking at him.
"Why do you want to know?" Alexis said looking at him.
John looked down the hallway to see December and Adam walking out of their room with their bags as Alexis looked at him.
"I will not be allow you to sleep with some male slut." John said looking at her. "I love you god damn it Alexis. I know I fucked up by doing somethings but damn it my biggest mistake was letting the one person I knew truly cared about me." He added.
Alexis straighten up quickly as he pushed her into the room allowing himself in as she stared at him.
"Say that again." Alexis said with a smile.
"I will not allow you to sleep with some male slut." John said as Alexis shook her head. "What?" He added.
Alexis smiled brightly at him as he just stared at her.
"That you loved me and you fucked up." Alexis said with a laugh.
John laughed a little bit as he pulled her body to him and kissed he lips gently.
"I love you Alexis Copeland and I fucked up." John said as Alexis laughed and held onto him tightly.
