"No, no," Mike exclaimed as he tossed the stack of papers on the nearby table. He grabbed his car keys and sprinted toward his car.

Even though Taylor's house was only 10-15 minutes away, but to Mike it seemed like the drive took forever. He knew that his wife was very upset with him, but never in his mind did he think she would draw up annulment papers.

Once his car was parked, Mike literally ran toward Taylor's front door, and banged on it loudly. "Taylor!" he called. "Come on Taylor, open up!"

A few moments later, the big wooden door opened. "Hey," she said cautiously.

"Annulment papers? Really? You don't think we need to talk about this?" he demanded.

Taylor started tearing up as she walked away from the door, Mike instantly following her. "When I called my lawyer yesterday afternoon, that was the hardest decision I ever made. Mike, I really think this is for the best."

"What about me? Don't I get a say in this decision? Taylor, what can I do to make you believe how sorry I am?" Mike asked. "I need you, and I don't want to lose you."

As the tears streamed more steadily, Taylor shook her head as she headed toward the couch. "Mike, you have no idea how hurt I am. You knew how my past relationships scarred me. And you knew how I felt about Eve and the whole subject of cheating. And then I started thinking, we only dated for like two weeks before we got married. Mike, we hardly know each other."

"I don't believe that for a damn minute," Mike said as he crossed the room and kneeled in front of his wife. "Yes I knew about your past, and you have no idea how much I want to turn back time. And you know what, maybe we don't know every single detail about each other, but that is what makes each day a new adventure. Taylor, I love all the things I know about you and am excited to learn the things I don't know. I may not have acted like it, but you are my whole world Taylor. I have never felt this way about anyone in my life. Please come home. Please," Mike asked, through his own tears.

It absolutely killed Taylor to see Mike act in this way. All she wanted to do was take him in her arms, and hold him. But she didn't want to forgive him, and then six months down the road this happen again. Taylor knew she had to stick to her guns. "I'm sorry Mike, but I can't stay married to a cheater. Please don't make this any harder than it needs to be. Just go."

To say Mike was stunned was certainly an understatement. "Taylor, no."

Saying nothing, the brunette rose from her seat and headed up the stairs. Mike's jaw literally dropped, and hung his head in defeat as he walked out of the house. Once Taylor knew Mike was gone and down the road, she packed a suitcase full of clothes, and headed toward her parents' house- that way if Mike came back the following day, she wouldn't be there.

When Mike got home, he threw his keys down on the table and after grabbing a beer, he slouched down in his recliner. He felt like a failure. Not only had he been married a mere month, but his new bride was now wanting to make it as if their marriage never happened.

Minutes later, he heard the front door open and his heart went in his throat. But, it sank right down when Nic appeared in the entry way. "What are you doing here?" Mike asked.

"I heard what happened from Mel," he said as he noticed the stack of papers on a table. "Damn. You ok?"

Mike smirked. "Oh yeah, I'm great. I totally messed up and the one person who means the most doesn't trust me. And then this morning, I get the surprise of annulment papers. Fantastic," he said sarcastically, taking a swig of his beer.

Nic said nothing as he crossed the room and sat on the couch adjacent to Mike. "Are you just going to give up?"

"I have no other choice. I went to see her after I got the papers, and she didn't even want to talk to me. Nic, I even offered to quit the WWE. I don't know what to do."

Across town, Taylor was having a similar conversation with her mom. "Mom, do you think I'm over reacting?" she asked as a tear escaped her eye. "I don't know what to do."

Janet softly smiled and sat behind her daughter on the spare bed. "Taylor, unfortuantley I can't tell you what to do. If you truly feel that an annulment is the right thing, then I support you. But can I say one thing?"

"Sure…"

"When I look at you and Mike together, I can see how happy he makes you. And when he looks at you, I can see the love Mike has for you. You don't want a mistake to ruin the best thing that has happened to you, do you?"

Taylor then turned to face her mom. "He cheated on me, mom."

Janet nodded. "Yes he did, and in no way am I condoning it. But have I ever told you the story where your dad made the same mistake?"

"No," Taylor frowned. "Dad cheated on you? Was I around?"

"This happened when we were dating," Janet began. "He had just started at the fire station, and I was in my final year of college. I was busy preparing for finals, and your dad had a few days off. Well, to make a long story short, he went out with some friends, met a girl at the dance club and ending up sleeping with her."

Taylor's eyes widened. "Dad slept with this girl? How do you know I don't have a sibiling in the world somewhere? How could you forgive that? I can't even look at Mike, and he just kissed someone."

"Well, I broke up with him and a few months passed, and I began to miss him. Then one night, your dad and I met for dinner and talked about everything. He told me how it was a mistake, and gave me his word that he'd change. I knew that I was hurting because of him, but then again he was the only one that could take the hurt away. So, we got back together and were engaged within six months. And you know what, I haven't doubted him since."

Taylor softly smiled. "I like that your story had a happy ending."

"And yours will too," Janet reassured. "You need to talk to Mike more."

Just then, both ladies heard the telephone ring and Janet immediately rose to answer it. "Hello…hi Steven," she smiled, looking toward her daughter. "Oh my goodness…no, go ahead, I'll be fine here. Please be careful…ok, talk to you soon. Bye," she said, hanging up.

"What's going on with dad?"

"There is a big fire at a factory in San Francisco. I guess it's so big they called both fire departments in Los Angeles to help. So that is where he'll be at least for the next day or so."

"Wow," Taylor said. "Well, hopefully dad stays safe and they can get that fire out."
