A/N: You are going to see a different side of Ted in this chapter, but it is explained in the beginning of the chapter. Hope you guys like it!

The past couple of months seemed to fly by, but for Carly, they went by slowly. Alex was now 4 months old, and getting bigger by the second. He was looking like Ted more and more each day. Ted was still the WWE champion, and since he won the title, he was busier than ever.

Since Ted was still champion, he was asked to do more promotions and signings, and wanted at almost every house show. Unfortunately, Carly was really starting to miss him, obviously since she couldn't travel with him all the time. The one thing she didn't like more-all the success was getting to Ted, and he started getting a swelled head.

It was a late Tuesday morning in early March, and Carly's mom was visiting. "Carly, I can't believe how much Alex has grown! He looks more like Ted every day," Marlene stated as they walked into the kitchen.

"I know. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing," Carly muttered.

Marlene looked at her daughter, and noticed the expression on her face. "Carly, what's wrong? Are you and Ted fighting or something?"

Carly shook her head. "No, we aren't fighting. I haven't even talked to him in a couple of days."

"Why not?"

Just then, the kitchen door opened, and Ted walked inside the house. "Your WWE champion is here!"

Carly rolled her eyes as Ted took Alex from Marlene. "Hello, Marlene, it's good to see you," he said. "Alex, my big guy! Daddy missed you so much!" he exclaimed as the infant cooed back.

Ted then walked toward Carly and kissed the top of her head. "Daddy missed Mommy too. Hey babe."

"Hey! It's good to have you home," she said as they hugged.

"I have an idea," Marlene began as she once again took Alex. "Carly, you said earlier that you had alot of errands and shopping to do today. Why don't I take Alex, and do those errands for you. You and Ted haven't seen each other in almost a week, so you guys can spend time alone together. I'll make sure to call while we're on the way home...so we don't interrupt anything," Marlene said, winking. She then walked off to get the baby ready.

Ted then turned his attention back to Carly. "Baby, I'm sorry I didn't call home yesterday. I had a great meeting with Stephanie and Vince, and they offered me another movie deal."

"Ted, that's great," Carly said. She was genuinely happy, but sad at the same time. Another movie meant more time away from home. "When did they say it would start?"

"They weren't for sure, but it could possibly be over the summer," Ted replied as he got a bottle of water out of the refridgerator.

"The summer...so you may not be home for our first wedding anniversary?"

"Maybe not. It just depends when it starts. It's kind of going to be like The Marine II, an action movie and all that good stuff."

Before Carly could say anything more, Marlene and Alex walked back into the room. "Ok, we are set. Carly, I'm going to take your car since the car seat is in there. Is that ok?"

"Yeah that's fine," she replied smiling. "You guys have fun. Alex, be a good baby!"

"He's always a good baby," Ted replied as he also kissed the top of his son's head. After Marlene got the list of items needed from Carly, she and Alex left. As soon as the door closed, Ted pulled Carly closer and began to nip at her neck. "You know...we are all alone. We should take advantage of the time."

Carly didn't really want to fight with Ted, especially since he had just gotten home. Instead, she pulled Ted off her neck and began to kiss him passionately. He then picked her up bridal style and headed toward their bedroom.

A couple of hours later, Carly woke up, and when she rolled over, she noticed Ted texting someone. "Hey," she said groggily.

"Hey your up," he said as he pulled her close.

"Who texted you?"

"Vince emailed me. I rigged my phone to beep when I get an email. He wants to have a phone meeting later this afternoon."

Carly groaned as she got out of bed to get dressed. "What's the matter?" Ted asked.

"Another meeting Ted? You just got home. You've hardly seen Alex, and we've barely talked in the last few days. When are you going to make time for your family?" she asked as she threw on her bra and panties.

"What are you talking about? I make time for you guys all the time," he stated. "I don't think you would call the last hour in that bed nothing."

"Oh yeah, you got your sex fix for the week is total quality time. Do you know how much you've been gone this month alone? Put it this way...this is only the 3rd day you've been home, and its the middle of the month. It's like all you care about is your title."

"Carly, that isn't true, and you know it."

"It isn't true? When you walked in the door, you screamed Your WWE champion is home. Come on! I don't know what's bigger: your belt or your head!" she exclaimed as she walked out of her bedroom door.

Ted followed her. "Now what the hell is that supposed to mean?"

"Come on Ted, you know its true. Ever since the Royal Rumble and the belt got in your hands, it's all gone to your head. It's like you have totally changed."

"I think I really know what is going on."

"You know what's really going on?" Carly asked as she folded her arms across her chest.

"Your jealous."

Carly was stunned. She didn't know how to react. "What?"

"Yeah, your jealous. Your jealous because my time has finally come and I am getting just as popular as Cena or Orton. You never got to have this kind of success."

"I never got to have this kind of success because I was in a serious car accident and then kidnapped you jackass. Don't forget that I also got pregnant with our son."

Before Ted could respond, Marlene then walked through the door with Alex sleeping soundly in his carseat. "Hey Carly, do you mind helping me bring in some groceries real quick?"

"Sure, I will be right there," Carly called as she turned her attention back to Ted. "I'm sick and tired of fighting. I'm done."

Ted didn't say anything as he watched Carly walk into the kitchen to help her mom. Several hours later, Ted walked into the kitchen, and leaned against the doorway watching Carly dry the dishes. It took several minutes for to realize he was there. "Did you need something?" she asked quietly.

Ted shook his head as he walked in the kitchen, and sat down on the counter next to her. "No. I just need my wife."

Carly smirked as she threw her dish towel on the opposite counter. "Well, I would like my husband back and I know he's somewhere in there," she said as she poked Ted's chest. "The way you've been acting lately...it isn't you," she said as she walked away.

"Don't you want to know about my meeting?" he called.

Carly stopped in her tracks and turned around. "What about your meeting?"

"Starting next Monday, I'm going to start a feud with Chris Jericho. I'm going to lose the title at Wrestlemania to him."

"You are?"

"Yeah. You got what you wanted. I'm not going to be champion anymore."

"That's not what I meant at all! I'm happy about your success, but I just wish that you could make more time for your family and turn down your ego just a tad bit."

Ted then jumped off the counter and walked toward his wife. "You of all people should know how busy a WWE superstar's schedule can be. When your on the top of the mountain, it can be a little crazier. Unfortuantely, you have to cut down on some things at home in order to get what you want."

Carly shook her head in disbelief, and started tearing up. "I can't believe you just said that to me," she said as she walked away.
