Saving grace – Chapter 7
Randy's POV
It's been a month since me & Mickie had talked to each other. 4 more months? I wish I can do this. None of us have been communicating Mickie. It's either a time problem or she's busy with her work. So Mickie is not yet informed about the Torrie & John engagement. It's 2 am and I just can't sleep. I don't even know how I survived a month without talking to her. I took my phone and checked the world clock. I searched for Paris, 8 am. She's probably asleep. But there's a possibility that she's up cause she really gets up so early. I dialed her number and gladly it was ringing. "Hello?"
"Micks! Finally, we haven't talked for a month. I am worried sick about you. Why are you up so-"
"Gotcha! This Mickie's voicemail. I'm really busy right now so just leave a message after the beep ok"
"BEEP!" Oh voicemail. It won't make any sense if I send it through voicemail. Just for once let me speak to her. Not just voicemail. I slammed my phone to the corner of my bed. I just decided to turn on the TV, there must be something nice. Well it was the other way around. Chess. People were playing chess. Now who would be entertained by that? I turned off the tv and buried my face to the pillow. I convinced myself to sleep but I just can't. I thought of an idea which really helps me to go to sleep. I took my iPod from my drawer and connected it to the speakers. I opened my playlist wherein it helps me gets to sleep. It doesn't matter if it's happy or sad but it helps me sleep. I played like we used to by a rocket to the moon.
"Mickie, please don't do this. You don't know what you're saying. Don't say that"
"Randy, I've seen it. Nothing can cover you up. Don't tell my what to say ok"
"You're just joking right. Of course you're not gonna do this. "
"Joke? you think I'm joking right now? What about those 7 years of our relationship was it actually a joke to you? But what about you Randy? You're gonna do it right?"
"Of course it's not. I don't even know what I'll do with those 7 years without you. It was already set."
"Randy, we've knew each other since we were kindergarten. You know me more than anyone else does. I'm tired of being a part of your sick little games."
"Mickie, please no."
"I'm really sorry."
I widened my eyes. What was that dream all about? What did Mickie & I fought about? It was just a dream Randy. Just a dream. I checked the time 4:20. I really have to call her. I grabbed my phone and dialed her number.
"Pick up, pick up, pick up, Mickie pi—"
"Hello? Who's this?" I was interrupted by a sweet voice.
"It's me uh, Randy" I was shocked that she forgot who I was.
"Oh sorry, I forgot to read the caller ID"
"Mickie, We haven't talked for a month. I'm really worried about you"
"Randy don't worry I'm fine. What about you? and It's uh 4 or 5 there. Why are you still awake?"
"I had a bad dream."
"It's alright Randy, It was just a dream. Baby, sorry but a have a meeting to attend to. I'll just call you back okay. love you"
"But—" She hung up already.
love you too.
2 months after…
I've been talking to Mickie lately but the situation will be "How are you?" "Oh I'm just working. What about you?" "Nothing really" "look baby I'm needed for this or that" Ugh, she's been gone for 3 months and I can't stand it anymore. I haven't hanged out with my friends lately. A couple of minutes with John and some worried Maryse on the phone.
Mickie's POV
I can't even find time talking to Randy. What kind of girlfriend am I? While he tries to call me everyday even if his sleeping schedule is messed up already. My phone rang and it's a call from my dad.
"Hey dad?"
"Mickie, You're done with the presentation and designs already right?"
"Done with all of it. I just finished it this morning"
"Well, If you want we can hire some models and have the fashion show for the release of our line?"
"That would be great. But we don't know where to get models?"
"Don't worry I have it all prepared."
"Well a fashion show is scheduled for tomorrow then"
"and by the way we can have a 3 days together and you can go back to Missouri already."
"We'll tour Paris right? Oh my god. Thank you so much dad. see you later alright. I'll drop off the clothes and everything later. love you"
I hung up and started to dial another number. I called Melina. "Ohmygod, Mel!" I sounded so happy. "Micks you've finally called. But why are you so happy?" She said in a confused tone.
"I'm done with my work here then I can go back there by next week."
"Seriously? Have you told Randy?"
"That's why I called you. I wanted to surprise Randy"
"How?"
"You'll bring him to John's house and we'll plan it afterwards"
"That's almost impossible you that Micks"
"How come?"
"He barely hangs out with us. He always pass to our 'bondings'"
"Not until this surprise. Hey, don't tell him ok. Talk to you tomorrow I'll just call John"
"Of course. What are surprises for? Talk to you later. Can't wait til you go back"
I started to dial a new number. This time I dialed John's number.
"John! Johnny!" I squealed
"Mickie mouse! Finally you've called! I've missed you so much"
"It won't be long"
"What do you mean?"
"I'm going home next week." I simply answered.
"Seriously? Oh my gosh. Yes, finally" He was rejoicing.
"Very funny cena, very funny"
"Have you told Randy?"
"Nuh-uh."
"Why? You want me to call him for you?"
"NO! oh my god no. I wanted to surprise him."
"Oh I see, But he barely talks to us"
"I know I know. Melina told me that already."
"I have a plan already. Bring him to your house on Tuesday. Make sure to bring a blindfold. This 'surprise' will test be needing some trust and a blindfold"
"Trust and blindfold? what the hell?"
"Just bring a blindfold ok"
"Fine, fine, fine"
"So I'll call Maryse already. I'll just talk to you later"
"Wait!"
"What?"
"Me and Torrie wanted to tell you something"
"Well then what is it?" It looks like he put it in loud speakers
"WE'RE ENGAGED!" I heard them both saying those to words
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME? OHMYGOD! FINALLY! CONGRATS TO YOU TWO." "AND FOR YOU JOHN YOU'RE FINALLY A GROWN UP"
"Hahahaha, That's what Maryse told me also."
"Speaking of Maryse I'll call her. I'll talk to you guys later. I've missed so much"
Finally. They're finally engaged. It was Torrie's dream to get married to the guy of his dreams and that dream is about to come true. I know they would be the perfect married couple. They don't let any problems affect their relationship. I'm really happy for them. I dialed Maryse's number. I just can't wait to go home. I had the same conversation with Maryse. I was so happy that I went out of the hotel I was staying in. I had to go shopping. I really don't care if I'm gonna shop alone. Coach, Channel & Louis Vuitton are selling materials than can only be bought in Paris. I'm also gonna shop in some French boutiques.
I was exhausted from the shopping spree. I bought Maryse a Louis Vuitton handbag, Chanel pumps for Melina & Chanel Make up for Torrie while for the boys I bought them some unique items from French boutique. What I bought for Randy was a couple necklace. We both loved superman so I bought a superman pendant which the half is in another necklace. I decided to call it a night so I took a warm bath headed straight to bed. Sleep tight.
Randy's POV
There's nothing new with today. I'm still gonna stay in my room for the whole day. So since Mickie won't come 'til next next month I decided to do something I never did. I went to the garage and went in my Bentley. One month wouldn't be that bad right? I went to a travel agency and fixed my visa. I will actually visit my parents in Australia. I haven't seen my parents for 5 years. I'll be giving my prents a call tomorrow to tell them that I'm gonna stay in Australia for a month. I have nothing to do since Mickie's gone. I know John & company will understand this. I'll just tell them next week. The lady told me that I have to go back on Saturday. I have to get my passport. I will be leaving by next month. I was driving back home but I think I just saw a guy who exactly looks like Mike. Oh wait, it is mike. "MIKE!" I called out making him turn around.
"Randy?" He asked me confused
"Well there's no one else with me so yeah, It's me, Randy."
"I mean you came out of your house."
"Shut up. Hey are you going somewhere? Do you want to hang out?"
"Sure man. So I'm coming to Morrison's tomorrow. Friday night movie marathon. Are you coming?"
"Oh that. Yeah, sure."
"Seriously?"
"It's our movie marathon. I wouldn't miss it anymore. I promise."
"Good" He showed me his smile. If only knew why I wanted to hang out. Well I'm telling them soon anyway. We went to starbucks and talked for an hour. After that we went to his house.
"Hey Randy. Do you think I should ask Maryse out? I mean she's your sister"
"Everyone's been waiting for you to ask her out, dumbass. Make a move before anyone else does."
"It's getting late and I'm still fixing some stuff at home so I'll see you in Morrison's tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow ok" I then left his house. Tomorrow I will start bonding with them again. I parked my car and went straight right to the kitchen. I grabbed some chips & beer and headed to my room. There's a motoGP grand prix live event which is about to start. I laid on my bed and watched the race. I love motorcycles. I'm a big fan of Valentino Rossi. What the fuck? He lost. wow. I tried to call ryse but she didn't answer. Well of course it's 1 am and she's having her 'beauty rest.' I went to the bathroom and took a shower. I changed into a white t shirt and boxers. I collapsed on my bed and slept.
