Letting Go

I awoke the next morning to the sound of my alarm clock beeping loudly in my ears. I groaned, and rubbed my hands through my hair. I looked to the clock and in big, red, blinking numbers read 10:15. Across from the clock on the end table was a note, I looked down to see that I had been placed in the bed.

I grabbed the note and opened it, it was left by Cody.

Torrence, thanks for everything last night. Guess I should watch how much I drink. Well I went out to get some stuff for the fridge, I'll see ya later

Cody

I smiled and placed the note back on the table. I rubbed my fingers through my hair one last time before throwing the covers back and heading into the bathroom. I jumped into the shower, the hot water cleansing my body.

Suddenly I heard the tone to my cellphone coming from in the room. I quickly shut off the water, and wrapped a towel around my body and ran into the bedroom. I shuffled through lip gloss, gum, and nail polish in my purse until I finally found my cell.

I looked at the number to realize that it was Randy calling. I was expecting Matt, or Ash since I hadn't heard from them, but not Randy. I flipped the phone open and placed it to my ear

"Hello?"

"Hey Torrence" Randy said across the line

"Hi Randy, what's up?" I asked as I shook my hair which was dripping onto the carpet.

"Oh nothing, just wanted to call and see how things were going for you" I smiled

"Everythings great. Most of the girls are nice, and my roommates really cool" I walked over and grabbed the teddy bear Randy had won for me when he took me to a carnival a few months ago and began to pet it.

"That's great. I'm really happy that your happy" Randy said, I could feel the smile forming across his face, we had formed a bond like that.

"Thanks, and how are things going for you?" I asked, Randy chuckled

"Great. I'm in line for a shot at the WWE title, just waiting for Vince to tell me if I'm getting it or not" I giggled

"That's great Randy..." suddenly Cody walked in through the front doors carrying a load of groceries in his hands. He looked over to me and smiled before heading towards the kitchen.

"Everything, okay?" Randy asked. I snapped back to him

"Um yeah. I gotta go Randy, my roomie needs help" I felt the smile on Randy's face fade as well

"Okay. Hey Torrence?"

"Yeah Randy?"

"Good luck with everything. Your gonna be the best diva there" I smiled

"Thanks Randy. Bye" I closed my cell and placed it back into my purse. I let out a deep sigh and headed into the kitchen with Cody.

He was stocking food into the fridge. I grabbed a banana from off the island and peeled it before taking a bite. He looked over to me and smiled "I was saving those for me" I smirked and took another bite "tough" I winked and headed back into the bedroom.

Cody followed me, "I'm guessing that wasn't Matt?" I turned to him, "no. That was...Randy" Cody then inhaled a deep breath "really, Randy. Your ex" I frowned "we can still keep in touch can't we?" I said as I sat down on the bed "yeah, sure. He get you that bear?" I gave him a confused look before I realized that I was still holding the bear that Randy had won me. I quickly threw it to the side "maybe he did" Cody laughed "whatever Torrence, your love, your problem. Now you might wanna put on some clothes. Meeting in an hour" I looked down again to realize that I was still wearing the towel. I quickly wrapped my hands around my chest and ran back into the bathroom.

Cody and I arrived downstairs in the lobby and headed outside. Our meeting was going to be held at a local Taco Bell in the town. Cody got us a cab and we headed off.

Inside the Taco Bell everyone else was already there. Cody walked over and sat in between Dave Batista, and Montel a.ka. MVP. I looked around and noticed Christy, Michelle, and Maryse waving to me from the back. I smiled and quickly ran back to them, and sat down.

Over the course of the meeting I had ordered a few Nachos and Christy, Maryse, Michelle and I were talking about little things like the rest of the guys on the brands, and shopping.

I glance over to see Matt sipping on his coke. He was sitting beside Paul London, and Brian Kendrick. He smiled to me, I smiled and waved but suddenly found myself thinking about Randy. I quickly shook him from my mind and turned back to the girls.

After the meeting was over everything had been settled. I wasn't even gonna be a diva, instead Vickie decided to make me a backstage reporter, and a fill in commentator.

The girls and I decided to go shopping as everyone else went out on the town, or back to the hotel, and I needed to go and blow off some steam with my credit card because they made me a stinkin reporter. I waved to Matt as he headed off with Paul and Brian, and we headed the other way.

First we entered a shoe store. All of the girls headed off into a different direction, and I headed into a empty row. Suddenly my eyes caught sight of a pair of strappy sandals that I had to have. I pulled my credit card from my purse and it just seemed to gleam when I moved it towards the sandals.

A jewelry store, another shoe store, and two clothing boutiques later my credit card was near maxed out. As we all headed down the sidewalk Christy and I walked side-by-side while Michelle and Maryse walked a few steps ahead of us.

"So. You and Matt sure seem cozy together" Christy said as she struggled to keep all her shopping bags from falling. I smiled weakly "yeah, he's great" I said softly. I could tell that Christy wasn't convinced though, and neither was I. "Then why do you look sadder than a puppy in the pound?" Christy asked. I took a deep breath "well I love Matt, I really, really do. But it just always seems like I'm thinking about..." I trailed off and Christy caught the idea. She placed her hand on my shoulder "Randy?" I nodded, "honey. To officially be over him, you have to let go of everything that reminds you of him. Do you have anything he gave you?" She asked.

I had a shirt of Randy's that I had worn on morning when I stayed with his parents. I had a plush doll of Spongebob that he had won me at the carnival also, and I also had the teddy bear.

I nodded to Christy, she them gave me a sweet look, "then you know what its time to do."

Later that night Christy, Michelle, Maryse, Cherry, and I sat in an old abandoned lot. We all stood in a circle and in the middle of our circle was a cardboard box filled with all the things I had of Randy's.

Michelle looked around to all of us. "We are gathered her to help our friend move past her ex. The only way to do that is to completely cleanse her of everything that binds her to him..." she then pulled out a match and lite it "as these things go, let them not bring pain, but peace of mind to our dear friend" Michelle then dropped the match into the box and my things caught flame.

I felt tears fill my eyes as I watched all the things I once held dear being to burn. As soon as the teddy bear that I was just holding earlier today caught flame, I buried my face into Cherry's shirt and began to cry.

I looked over and watched as the smoke from the fire flew up into the night sky. At least the spirit of all my things will be in a better place now.
