How Taking Down Legacy Failed

Mickie's P.O.V

It had been another two days until I finally found the confidence to come out of my room. I hadn't seen him since our encounter two days ago, but I knew I couldn't stay in there forever, like Ted said, it wasn't healthy for me, nor was it for Hayden. Randy was sitting at the kitchen counter when I walked in, Hayden on my hip, he looked over, a surprised looked on his face that I had actually come out of my room. Just walk forward and pretend like he doesn't exist...it had come down to the fact that I had to narrate my actions in my head to do them, he just made me so nervous, so alert whenever I saw him, it wasn't suppose to be like this.

The whole time, I was reaching down into one of the cupboards to get Hayden's bottle, I felt his eyes on me, he knew he was making me uncomfortable and all he wanted was to make me squirm, well, he was succeeding. I so badly wished I could walk past him without a care, that he is just another stranger on the street, but I knew although I had said to myself that I was giving up, I couldn't. As long as I can see a small bit of Randy in him, I was going to keep trying. Although the part of Randy that I can see, seems to be getting smaller and smaller and soon I fear there will be nothing left.

"What?" I snapped, finally cracking under his gaze, he smirked seeing that I had finally taken action.

"Nothing" He replied innocently. "You know, you should learn to control that temper of yours, might get you into trouble one day"

"Seriously Randy, what do you want? Haven't you tortured me enough for the past week?" I settled Hayden in his high chair; he was already drifting in and out of sleep.

"You brought this all upon yourself, you know" He spoke slowly, his fingers creating a circling motion on the counter. "All you had to do is lie down and shut up" He spoke harshly.

"It's not my fault you can't face the truth" I retorted.

"Truth? It's some messed up fantasy you have, far from the truth" He scoffed. "But you know..." A small smirk crept up onto his face. "The offer still stands"

"What offer?"

"The lie down and shut up"

"What for me to 'get rid of the rust" I grinned evilly, quoting his talk with Cody. "Really Randy, trouble with getting it up?" His eyes widened at the thought of Cody breeching his confidence. "Looks like they are going to be blocked for a very long time"

"That was two days ago" The arrogant smirk was placed back on his face. "I did the deed...yesterday in fact, I'm surprised you didn't hear her screams" I suddenly felt sick at the sound of him with another girl. I felt I didn't have to worry about that, especially after Cody reassured me yesterday. God here we go... I had the urge to cry, an urge that I had felt too much lately, I turned away from Randy; I felt his victorious smirk sinking into the back of me. I picked up Hayden who had fallen asleep in his high chair and placed him on my hip. I didn't know where to go; did I stay here to show Randy he wasn't getting under my skin? Should I go back to hiding away in my room? Or do I go out in my pyjamas.

"So is this how it's going to be from now?" I asked him. "You making some stupid comment trying to put me down every morning?"

"Depends" He replied.

"On what?"

"On how long your going to keep this crazy make believe life up?"

"Look your the one who keeps bringing it up so maybe it's been playing on your mind more then you would like it to be" Randy looked some how taken back by my response as if I were spot on.

"I don't understand why it scares you so much that you might actually be a good guy" I shook my head. "All that your part of a family, or a father or a fian-"

"Just stop it" He snapped. "We've been through this"

Randy's P.O.V

I starred down at the diva with the kid on her shoulder. Every word she said echoed through my head, but I knew it couldn't be true; every she is saying just doesn't make sense. "It's not going to happen every morning because it's not worth my time; you're not worth my time"

"Really?" She chuckled. "Then why were you willing to give up you're 'freedom' and be with me? When the last thing you ever want to do is be in a relationship"

"It wasn't as if I had to stay faithful" I lied and by the look on her face, she knew it.

"Really" She repeated rhetorically.

I didn't even try and back it up because she knew, she knew I cared about her, but at least she didn't know I contemplated actually loving her, it made me shudder even thinking about the word love. It's a good thing I saw her psycho side before I actually began to...not that I was falling for her or anything. None it made sense, she hypnotised me, when she was at the hospital, all those hours by my bedside, it must of seemed like the perfect opportunity for her to replace her kid's dad.

I opened my mouth to speak, but found that I couldn't. Instead, I got up and walked out of the door. Maybe going to the gym will help me blow off some steam.

Mickie's P.O.V

I sighed as I heard the door slam, well that went well. I don't know what I believed anymore because I knew he was lying, there was no doubt in my mind, I just don't know why he was trying to fight it all. Everything that I am telling him makes sense, I don't know if I'm just waiting for him to realise, but even if he does believe me, that still doesn't bring my Randy back to me. I still longed for him to come back, I miss him so much and I can't stretch that enough. "Is it safe to come out?" I heard Ted call out from his bedroom.

"Yes Ted" I called back, Ted walked out of the room with a bowl of Golden Nuggets.

"That was intense huh?" Ted said with his mouth full.

"You heard it?"

"I wasn't eavesdropping!" He quickly jumped to defence. "You guys are just really loud and disturbed my slumber, which reminds me...we should watch Aladdin soon"

"Random, but ok" I laughed; I sat down and made Hayden comfy on my lap. "Every conversation with him now feels like déjà vu, it's like we're going through the same thing over and over"

"Maybe you should go to see the doctor about it, because he did warn you against telling Randy"

"Yeah I guess" I sighed. "I know I did the right thing by telling him, I was backed against the wall, I had too"

"I think it was the right thing to do too baby"

"Cheers Theodore"

"It's ok Baby" He smiled. "Part of me thinks he does believe it"

"You think?"

"He is just scarred of how much he is changing probably"

"I don't think Randy thinks that way" I chuckled sadly. "I wish I could read his mind, you know? I know he still cares, I can feel it"

"I think he does too" Ted replied. "I think he knows deep down, but he just doesn't feel like that kind of guy"

"It's taking so long Ted and I really don't know how long I can keep going" I breathed. "I'm trying to stay strong for him, for me and for Hayden, but it's like my grip is loosening and it feels like this is it...this is how my life is going to be...chasing after a guy who doesn't even remember what we had together"

"It won't be like that baby"

"How do you know? How does the doctor even know this won't be permanent especially as I told which I wasn't suppose to do"

"Baby yo-"

"I just want Randy back" I cried as I ran into my room, it felt like my safe base. I tugged the covers over my head and curled up in my normal spot. I heard the door open and Ted placed Hayden in his crib.

"Look after mommy Hayden" I heard him whisper and then the door closed.

Randy's P.O.V

"I don't care about her Rebecca" I said to my kid sister sternly. She had a grin on her face that drove me crazy as she thought she was right, but I honestly didn't, I don't care about the diva... I don't.

"You haven't stopped talking about her since you got here" She pointed out, I froze, I didn't really think I had...I guess talking about her all the time now seemed natural. It was frustrating as I began to think about it more and more, I talk about her a lot...until Becky pointed it out, I didn't realise. I mean... I guess and you won't hear me repeat this, but I liked talking about her and even liked it when people brought her up. My head started to pound, all this changing my mind was doing my head in, but if I started thinking that I may be in love with her...I may start believing it because then I'm screwed. I took a long draft of my cigarette, Becky screwed up her nose and for a minute I pictured Mickie doing it too.

You're lungs bitch... I suddenly heard.

"You say something?" I asked Becky.

"Erm...no..."

"Yes you did...I heard you" I snapped, it was Mickie's voice, but it couldn't be, she isn't even here and after our little chat she wouldn't dare to speak to me like that.

"It wasn't me Randy" She replied, her face scrunched up in confusion.

"It must have been someone else" I sighed.

"Err...we've the only ones here" I looked around desperately, trying to search for a face to match the voice, but I couldn't. In my head, I could see Mickie putting her arms around me, in a garden patio, what the hell did she whisper in my ear by the hospital? I'm now hearing and even seeing

her in my head. "Are you ok?" Becky asked me.

"I'm fine! I'm fine."

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure" I snubbed my cigarette and sat down on the wall, burying my once again pounding head into my hands.

"What's up?" Becky asked me. "Can't get a certain someone out of your head"

"Shut up Becky" I hissed at her. "This isn't funny"

"Why do birds...suddenly appear...every time...Mickie is near!" She sang into my ear, I squeezed my eyes shut and tried to remind myself that she is my sister and that I can't RKO her...or can I... would it be that wrong? I mean...really? "Just like Randy...they long to be close to Mickie!"

"If you don't shut up I will RKO you" I threatened her deciding it wouldn't be so terrible of me, she'd get over it.

"And RANDYYYY WILLL ALWAYS LOVE MICKIEEEEEE YEAHHH WILL ALWAYS-" She didn't even have time to finish her stupid song as I stood up which caused her to jerk away. "Truth hurts Randy"

"And so will your neck in a minute" I replied, she just grinned and skipped away. I dug into my pocket and pulled out some tablets to get rid of my migraine, it had been like this for the past few days not, I just couldn't get rid of the throbbing, maybe this spell the diva had me under is taking over my brain,...I realise how ridiculous I sounded.

I closed my eyes and I saw Mickie, only it was me and Mickie together, she was laughing. "Alright alright snake boy!" She squealed as I put my arms around her.

"It's the viper babe" I replied through jokily clenched teeth before I broke out into a smile and started to kiss her neck.

I re-opened my eyes, that never happened...what the hell was that...

So Randy is starting to have flash backs!
