How Taking Down Legacy Failed

Mickie's P.O.V

"So there are three bottles in the fridge, normally I only give one to Hayden before he goes to bed, but just in case, there are three" I told him as I put my left earring on. I was so nervous about my date with Randy that I had changed what I was wearing three times. It was so weird because it was Randy! I had gone with him on dates before and never felt this nervous, my Randy just made me feel so comfortable, but this Randy, the feeling was horrible.

"Do I have to like, test the milk before I feed it to him?" Ted asked me, as he adjusted Hayden on his hip.

"I wouldn't" I replied, he looked at me strangely. "It's breast milk"

Ted scrunched up his face. "How did you do that?"

"I'm a woman of many skill" I told him, he starred at me in amazement. "I'm kidding"

"Oh…damn… I was going to get you to teach me"

"What?"

Ted's eyes widened. "What?" He said back, trying to confuse me.

"Did you just say…?"

"No, didn't say anything, nothing at all, what did I say Hayden?" Ted asked my son, Hayden just blinked back in response. "Exactly, well said Haydie"

"Let's just hope you don't turn out like your uncle Ted ay Hayden" I joked, Ted glared at me. "Love you"

"No you don't baby" Ted sulked.

"Yeah, your right….kidding! Once again that was a joke!"

"Well it wasn't a very funny one, c'mon Haydie" Ted left the room, only for the sound of Hayden's crying to stop him. "Alright! Alright! Look there's mom Hayden, look mommy! You can stop crying now"

"Oh come here my baby" I held out my arms and took Hayden from Ted.

"That's so annoying!"

"He is a baby Theodore! They are suppose to cry when their parents leave the room, it's normal" I shushed him, rocking Hayden back and fourth in my arms. "I'm going to miss you"

"He doesn't do much either"

"Ted, he's a baby, what do you expect him to do?"

"I expect him to do something! All he does is sleep"

"Leave my son alone, you bully!" I kissed the top of Hayden's head. "How do I look?" I asked him, giving a twirl in my black dress; I heard you could never go wrong in a black dress.

"Well, all I can say is, how's your act going baby?" He asked me, I raised a brow at him.

"What act?"

"Your stripper act"

"Oh, you're nasty" I pushed him a little.

"Hey hey hey, don't get bitchy with me; I didn't pay for that part of the act!" Ted scowled.

"Alright, I'm changing" I sighed, going back to my wardrobe, but Ted grabbed my wrist.

"You look beautiful baby, but that isn't the point, how dare you accuse me of bullying my godson, what kind of god mother do you think I am?" Ted played his hands on his hips and tapped his foot. I rolled my eyes playfully at him.

"Alright Ted, I apologize"

"Good, now that's sorted out, look" Ted rolled up his jeans to reveal a bruise.

"Ouch, how did you do that?"

"Being the good person that I am, I decided to tie Cody's shoes together, if I might add, I was stealthy in doing so. However, much to my surprise, when I tried to walk away from the scene of the crime, I tripped and fell; Becky had seen my diabolical plot in action and sabotaged me while I was in the process"

"Wow, you can't even pull a prank of Cody, that's a little pathetic" I chuckled.

"I'd like to see you do better"

"I already have" I grinned at Ted. "I started hitting him, and just as he was about to shove me away, I started yelling 'Voldemort is possessing me! Voldemort is possessing me!" He accepted this as a valid excuse"

"How dare you upstage me"

"Wasn't hard" I teased. "Right, I think I'm ready" I took a deep breath and took a last long look in the mirror. "Is Randy waiting?"

"Yeah, he is outside, c'mon Haydie, let's go bully your god father" Ted cooed at Hayden, he then looked at me. "We are going to have so much fun"

"I would hope so" I laughed. "He may cry for a little, but he should be ok if you give him his teddy" I picked up Hayden's toy from his bed.

"Wow, a doctor bear, that's new" Ted said, as he took it from my grasp.

"We named it doctor Dibiase, didn't we Hayden" I stroked his cheek. "I'm so nervous Ted"

"Don't be" He smiled. I nodded my head and passed Hayden to him.

"Goodnight my baby" I kissed Hayden's cheek. "Wish me luck"

"You won't need it, now get!" Ted said hurrying me to do the door, he even shoved me out, I went to face the door only for it to be slammed in my door.

I huffed and turned around to see Randy leaning against the wall, he was wearing black trousers with a blue three quarter length sleeve shirt on, he had his hands tucked into his pockets. He titled his head upwards, his eyes gazing over my body; I waited uncomfortably for his approval.

"You look beautiful" He told me, smiling slightly. He lifted his body off the wall and reached out his hand to me. I looked down at it, before smiling back at him, accepting his hand gesture.

"Thanks" I breathed. "Where are we going?"

"To dinner" He said. We walked in silence until we reached the hotel restaurant. "Reservations under Orton" He said to the man who nodded and showed us the way. It was romantic, it was an amazing restaurant, but it wasn't my Randy's style of a date, he'd know that I didn't like things big; I liked things simple and original.

Later

"So what happened?" Randy asked me, leaning in and smiling. Things were going well, better then I expected. We were waiting on our main at the moment.

"Well, it was the first time my boyfriend at the time was going to meet my family, unfortunately, I had forgotten to conceal the very large, very obvious hickey marks on my neck, my dad glared at us and my boyfriend began to stammer nervously. My dad then said "Hold that thought." and left the room. He came back in a couple of minutes with a shotgun and sat back down and said "please continue."

Randy choked on his drink and laughed. "Your dad sounds cool"

"That wasn't cool" I slapped his hand. "He cost me a boyfriend that day"

"Good" He grinned, taking a sip of his wine. "You don't talk much about your family"

"I don't mind talking about my mom and dad, but me and my sister don't get along much" I shrugged.

"Why?"

"Well….she slept with my boyfriend and then accused me of ruining her wedding" He tilted his head to the side. "Oh, me and Ra…" I then realised what I was about to say. "Actually, that story is for another time" I smiled at him. He was about to open his mouth, but I had to stop him from bringing it up, so I just changed the subject. "Did I tell you about the time; Ted announced he has stopped wearing deodorant because he thinks his BO was a sign of his 'manliness'?" I shook my head thinking about him.

"Somehow, that doesn't surprise me, what happened?"

"Becky jumped him and forced it onto him, in fear of re-living that, he hasn't stop wearing it since, your sister is amazing"

"I slept with your mother" Me and Randy both raised a brow at each other when we heard this. We turned in our chairs to two men sitting at the bar. The whole bar went quiet, waiting for the other man's response. The first man then repeated "I SLEPT WITH YOUR MOTHER!" Me and Randy both turned to each other, trying to keep our laughter in.

The second man then calmly says to the first "Go home dad, you're drunk"

That was it for me and Randy; we just started laughing despite all the looks we were getting in this posh restaurant. Randy then got up and reached his hand up to me. "Come on"

"What?" I asked him in surprise. "Our dinner hasn't even-"

"Your not into this place and to be honest neither am I, I just thought this would be the kind of place that you'd like" He chucked money onto our table for the check. "You coming?"

I smiled, reaching up for him, linking my arm around him. We ran from the restaurant into the park that was opposite. It was late and no one was around, we just walked around, just talking about anything and the conversation never went dead. For a minute, it felt like nothing happened, that Randy didn't loose his memory and it was then that I was sure Randy would gain his memory back, I could feel Randy in him and I wasn't going to let go of that.

"Well that's nothing" I said in reply to Randy. We were talking about all the things we had caught Ted doing. "Ted got dared to wear a dress by Cody and I asked him how it felt wearing a dress, Ted replied 'I think I have the legs for it'"

"He is…strange"

"But that's what makes him amazing" Randy starred at me. "In a friend way" I quickly said.

He chuckled. "Good." He said, taking a step closer to me, he brushed my side fringe out of my face; he placed a supporting hand on my hip and leaned in. Our lips touched and I wanted more. I placed my hand on his cheek, pulling him into me more; I placed my other hand softly on his chest. We stayed like that for awhile, wanting more from each other, taking everything we had to give. It felt like forever before we parted.

"I had a good time tonight Randy"

"Me too" He smiled. He didn't smile often these days, so I loved it when he did. "Let's get you home, you look cold, I wish I brought my jacket to give you"

"It's fine" I lifted my shoulders up. "I wish you also brought girl shoes for me to wear, these heels are killing me"

"Your fault for wearing them" He teased.

"I'm short without them"

"Without them?" Randy smirked looking down at me.

"Your just a tall asshole, nothing to do with my height" I scoffed, I took my heels off. "Much better" I sighed.

"C'mon, I will give you a piggy back" I looked at him to see if he was serious, which he was. He wrapped his arms around the back of my legs and hoisted me up. He kept changing speeds to make me squeal on the way back to the hotel.

I giggled as I opened the door to our hotel room, to see Hayden and Ted on the couch. "It's about time!" Ted huffed getting up. He passed Hayden to Randy who looked shocked at his actions. "He cried for ages, not even doctor Dibiase cheered him up!"

"What made him stop crying?"

"Well you see…I was watching friends earlier and I saw that they made Rachel's kid stop crying, by singing I like big butts…"

"You didn't?"

"Oh but he did" Becky came out of the bedroom followed by Cody with a video camera. "Want to see the proof?" I looked over at Randy, who was looking at Hayden; Hayden just snuggled into his arms as if he knew Randy was his dad. "How come he doesn't cry with you?" Becky asked Randy, she then winked at me.

"I um, don't know" Was Randy's shocked response.

"How could you torture Hayden by singing Theodore?"

"Hey hey hey, it got him to stop crying, alright?"

"I'll just go and put Hayden in his crib" Randy told me, I nodded and watching him go. It was the most beautiful sight seeing him hold Hayden.

"How was it?" Ted asked me. "By the smile on your face, I take it good"

"You could say that" I replied. "It's made me more determined then ever to get him to remember, it will happen" I said to Ted sternly before following Randy into my room.
