"Ally, I can't believe its already prom season, and I can't believe your going to be starting to look at dresses soon!" Carly exclaimed as she continued to talk to her little sister on the phone and put on her wrestling boots at the same time. While she listened to Ally talk, she heard a knock on the door. "Come in," she called and grinned when she saw Randy walk through the door. "Ok, Als, I have to go. I promise I will see you in a couple of days, and I can't wait to see those dress magazines. Ok, I love you too. Bye," she said and a moment later she flipped her phone closed.
"If you don't mind me asking, who is Als?" Randy asked.
"Oh, that is my baby sister Ally. She is my mom and step-dad's one and only."
"I see," Randy said as he nodded his head. "Listen, I wanted to go over the game plan for tonight. As you know, you are in a mixed tag match, but not sure of your partner."
"Right."
"Well, Stephanie just said that I am going against your dad, and Cody is going against MVP, so Ted is going to be your partner against Maryse and Matt Hardy."
"Yeah," Carly muttered under her breath. Randy heard her comment, and gave her a confused look. "What was that about? I thought you and Ted were like best friends."
"More like best friends on the rocks," she said, finally standing up and adjusting her wrestling pants.
"What happened?" he asked.
"Well...it all happened at Ted's New Years Eve party. During the night, he told me that his fiance was expecting. Well, a few minutes later, I was on my way to the bathroom, and I overheard Kristen and another girl talking, and Kristen said she wasn't pregnant. She just told the lie to break up our friendship."
"And I'm guessing Ted didn't take the news well."
"Nope," she replied, shaking her head. "He didn't believe me at all, and now Kristen said that the other girl is pulling the prank and she would never break up our friendship," Carly said sarcastically.
Randy nodded as he placed a comforting hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry, everything will work out. He'll eventually figure it out when she doesn't get bigger."
Carly smirked. "Thanks for listening."
"Your welcome. Anytime."
Another hour later, Carly was stretching one leg against a crate in the hallway when Ted walked up behind her. "Hey," he called.
Carly turned around and saw Ted walking toward her. She couldn't help but grin. "Hey."
"Are you ready? Our match is next," he said with no emotion in his voice.
Carly nodded as they both walked toward the curtain. "Ted, I really think we need to talk."
"Carls, like I told you before, I don't have anything to say to you right now. When I'm ready to talk, I'll talk. Let's just go out and get this match done."
Carly couldn't say anything as Ted's entrance music hit, and they both walked out to the ring, hearing nothing but boos. As they walked up to the side of the ride, Ted held the ropes so she could get inside the ring easier, and soon the match started.
Ted and Matt started the match, throwing blows at each other, and Matt even tried to get the Twist of Fate on Ted, but he successfully kicked out on the count of 2. Ted eventually gained control of the match, and got to tag in Carly.
When Carly climbed into the ring, she speared Maryse and continued punching her until the referee had to pull her off. Moments later, Carly climbed to the top turnbuckle, and flipped backwards to cover Maryse. 1...2...3! Ted and Carly exchanged their usual character smug looks as the ref raised their hands in victory.
They both walked backwards up the ramp, looking at the carnage still in the ring. As they walked backstage, Ted turned toward Carly. "Nice match. You looked great out there."
"Thanks," she said as Ted then walked the opposite direction, probably heading toward Legacy's locker room. As she was about to head the other direction, Stephanie stopped her. "Carly, I need to see you in my office," she said with a somber look on her face.
Carly could tell something was wrong and followed the GM back to her office. When Stephanie closed the door, Carly really knew something was wrong. She was even more confused to see her dad in the room as well.
Meanwhile, Ted had just gotten out of the shower, and pulled up his jeans when he saw Randy enter the locker room. "Hey man," Randy said, "nice match tonight. Both you and Carly looked good."
"Thanks," Ted said as he pulled a t-shirt over his head.
"So...I can you see you guys aren't getting along. "Listen," Randy said as Ted was about to say something, "Carly told me earlier tonight about what you guys are fighting about."
Ted nodded. "Do you really believe that?"
"Well, by the tears starting to well in her eyes and how sad she sounded, yes I do believe her. Ted, she sounded so down when she told me the story. You have known Carly for like ever. Do you really think she would lie about something so serious as faking a pregnancy?"
Ted sighed as he rubbed his hands over his face. "Ok, maybe I'll go find her and talk to her," he said as they both stepped out into the hallway.
"Good. She's not lying," Randy said. Before Ted could respond, they both watched Carly walk right past them, sobbing her eyes out. Ted and Randy glanced at each other curiously.
"I wonder what's the matter," Ted said as he started over toward the Diva locker room. Just then, Carly stormed out of the room, still dressed in her room gear and threw her bag over her shoulder. "Carly," he called. "What's the matter? Are you ok?"
Carly didn't seem to hear Ted as she continued speed walking down the hall, probably heading toward her rental car. Ted turned around, and looked confused toward Randy. "What the hell is going on?"
Just then, Randy and Ted noticed Stephanie and Ric walk toward them. "Steph, what's going on? Carly just bolted out of here without saying anything."
Randy and Ted noticed that Ric also looked upset. "About 10 or 15 minutes ago, Carly's mom tried calling her repeatedly, and obviously couldn't because you guys were still in your match. Well, she called me. Her sister Ally was in a car accident about a half hour after she got off the phone with Carly. Ally didn't make it."
Both Randy and Ted's faces fell as they heard the news. "Oh no," Ted muttered. He then went back into the locker room, grabbed his bag, and also headed toward the entrance. He now more than ever had to talk to Carly.
