Taryn wasn't home, so Evan was there by himself. If he and Madison were still living together, this wouldn't have happened. She would have been waiting there with open arms for her former best friend. Evan missed her terribly, even if he was currently engaged to Taryn, his heart still belonged to Maddie, and it also would.

"What's this?" Evan asked himself when he saw the piece of paper with his spare house key on it. He pushed the key aside, then held up the note so he could read it, he wasn't wearing his glasses.

"Love, always and forever, Maddie." he read the last line and was frozen. She had been here, and she'd given back the key. He remembered specifically telling her to never give it back, even if they weren't talking. He shook his head. He rummaged around the house for a piece of paper and a pen, and wrote his own letter.

Mad,

You're insane. Keep the key. In case of emergencies. My house is your safe place, it always has been. Come whenever you need. As for Taryn, she doesn't have anything to do with my opinions. I am my own person, even if I almost sold my soul… I can't believe I'm saying this, but thank you for stopping the wedding.

Best friends forever, my heart will forever be yours…

Evan.

"What. The. Fuck?" Madison said aloud as she looked at the piece of paper she was holding. In big, red, bold letters read, 'Eviction Notice'. "I'm being evicted?!" she screamed and then she just stared in disbelief. Had she forgotten to pay the electricity bill? What had she done? 'You have 30 days to vacate the premises' was also written. She dropped the notice and ran her hands through her hair. "What the fuck am I supposed to do?" Although she didn't want to, Maddie began packing her things away. She could call her dad, he'd help her out. She couldn't bring herself to do it. John Baker had always been supportive, and she couldn't take advantage of it any longer. She had to work things out for herself.

3 hours later, one side of Madison's house was bare, expect for boxes that were filled with possessions. She sat on the couch, staring at the blank television screen. The door opened, she heard it. It could have been a robber. Didn't care. It could have been a axe murderer. Didn't care. She was getting evicted, and it never would have happened had her and Evan still been friends, probably.

"You really suck. If someone just walks into your apartment, you're supposed to jump up, go all Mad on them, and show 'em you wrestling moves!" Jake stated, sitting down next to her. When she didn't reply he knew something was wrong. "Spill Baker."

"Wanna know why all these boxes are here? It's coz I'm getting evicted. I don't know why. I don't even care. And I have decided that I am moving out of St Louis. Too many memories. Good and bad. Dad… Evan and Randy… I don't know. I just want to get out."

"Fair enough Maddie. You left your little mailbox thingy open. I pulled this out before I closed it. I gotta go though, I am just driving through." they gave each other a tight hug before he left. She pulled open the envelope and a key fell out. The key she had returned to Evan the day before. She read the note and couldn't help but tear up, then smile, then cry at how stupid she had been.

The next Monday at Raw, Evan was talking to Kofi Kingston and Mike Mizanin, while Jake was talking to Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase. He still hadn't spoken to Evan. He didn't really wish to, but he thought he should.

"I'm gonna talk to Evan. I'll be back." he stood up and walked towards the smaller man. "Hey, guys. I need to borrow Evan for a minute. It's kinda important." he added when he saw the look on the brunette's face, the look that said he wasn't going anywhere, "It's about Maddie." Evan sighed and stood up. They walked away, out of earshot from everyone else.

"Yeah, what about her?"

"Man, she's being evicted from her apartment. She refuses to ask her dad for help, she wants to move out of St Louis." Evan's jaw dropped.

"She wants to leave St Louis. The only place that's been kind to her?"

"She wants to leave St Louis, the town that broke her heart more than once." Jake rephrased the statement.

"She… no. She can't leave!" Jake just shrugged.

"It's not my place. She's got something like 20 or so days to leave. I just wanted to let you know." Jake patted the high-flyer on the back and walked away.

Maddie looked at the house in front of her. A house full of many memories. The most recent of them quite horrible, but all the good ones before that outnumbered them. With a sad smile, she turned on her heel, stepped in her car. And drove off into the busy Tuesday morning peak hour traffic of St Louis. Not looking back.

a/n remember, 7 reviews!
