"Give her to me" Randy says, holding his arms out for Destiny. She looks up at him and smiles straight away. "Go sort yourself out in the bathroom Tor" he begs. "Please. For Dessie." I nod and head straight for my room. As soon as I'm inside I close the door and let the tears fall. How could he? Her, again? I can't get my head around it. I get her moved to NXT and he still finds a way to sneak around with her. I shake my head and curl up on my bed. It's not long before Randy knocks and comes in. "I got the stuff from the car" he says quietly. "Destiny is sleeping in her car seat. Fuck Tor, don't cry!" I can't help it, my body shakes as I sob while he walks over to me. "Tor, please?" he begs, sitting on the bed. I curl up on him, my head in his lap, and fall asleep as he strokes my hair.
When I wake up, Destiny and Randy are on the bed with me. "Hey" he whispers. "Your phone has been going wild. I've put it on silent now, it woke madam up twice." I nod and smile weakly. He hands me the phone and I groan. Three voicemails from Dean. I put the phone on speaker and play the first one. "Hey doll" he says cheerfully. "I guess princess has got you too busy to answer the phone, well Sami and I are on our way back now, so we'll see you soon. I love you." He hangs up and I delete the message. Randy looks at me and frowns. "He doesn't know you've left him does he?" he says quietly. I shake my head and play the second message. "Doll we're home" he says. "Car isn't here so I'm guessing you're still out shopping with Dessie. See you when you get back. Love you." I delete that one too, and take a deep breath before playing the third. "Torrie" he growls. "Where the fuck are you? Sneaking off when I'm out? That's real fucking low doll. I've seen half of your stuff is missing, Dessie's too. Where the fuck are you?" He growls and the message ends. I delete it and look at Randy. "Ok" he says slowly. "I'm only gonna ask you this once, ok? What the fuck has happened?" I get the pictures up on my phone and hand it to him. He scrolls through them, disbelief etched on his face. "I'm gonna fucking kill him" he growls. I shake my head. "This" I say pointing at myself, then destiny and him. "This will kill him enough. But I'm not going to tell him. I'm not answering any of his calls, or the guys in case he's using their phones. I'm gonna call the car hire company and get them to pick it up from here." He nods. "Ok" he says. "So you want me to play dumb?" I nod. "No problem princess" he says kissing my head. "You hungry?" I shake my head and he groans. "You gotta eat Tor" he says softly. "I'm not hungry Randy" I say, looking up at him. "I promise you, when I'm hungry I'll eat." He groans but nods. "I suppose thats gonna have to do" he says smiling. "Tell you what. Why doesn't uncle Randy take Dessie for a walk? Let you get yourself sorted here. I mean, all the stuff we bought when you lived here is still in the wrappers. Sort it out, there's a Moses basket somewhere. Dessie can't sleep in a car seat." I nod, knowing he's right. I need to make this room a home for Dessie. He smiles and kisses my head. "Love you Tor" he whispers. "Love you too Randy" I whisper back.
When he brings her back two hours later I'm in my spot on the sofa. He looks and groans. "Not there" he moans walking over to me. "Anywhere but there. I don't want that Torrie back again." I smile. "I'm good Randy" I say. "I promise. I've done a lot of thinking while I sorted everything out. Hey, at least there's no need for a divorce lawyer this time!" He chuckles and I look at him. Then we both laugh. "Uh Tor" he says holding my hand. "He called me while we were out." I nod. "Logical" I say. "Where else was I gonna go?" "Not here" he says. "I haven't seen you. You gave me the key back weeks ago." I smile. "Thank you" I say kissing him. "Not a problem" he says. "I will do or say whatever is necessary to keep him away from you and Destiny." "Until work" I groan. "Kinda can't avoid him there." He nods. "We'll manage Tor" he says. "Oh, the hire company picked the car up too. Now if he comes by he's not even gonna see a car." I smile. "Perfect" I say. "Except now I've gotta work out how to travel to shows." "Duh" he says pointing at himself. "I'm not just a pretty face you know. I know how to drive!" I laugh. I can't help it. I laugh until my sides ache. And then I cry. Oh man do I cry. Randy pulls me towards him and I curl up, lying against his chest. "Why the fuck did I leave here?" I ask eventually. Randy shrugs. "Simple" he says. "You knew you couldn't resist me any more." I smile. "You just keep telling yourself that Randal" I say kissing him before standing up. "It's whats got me through, princess" he says, winking. I groan and head into the kitchen. I just got my appetite back.
Randy walks in with Destiny as I'm cooking. "Hey momma" he says kissing my head. "What ya making me?" "Spag Bol" I say. He grins. "Gotta love me some spag bol" he says. "We got garlic bread?" I nod and he grins at Destiny. "Momma is the best Dessie" he says as she smiles at him. I smile at them both. "She really likes you" I say quietly. "Of course" he says winking at me. "Plus she's used to my voice anyway. You know I won't let him get at you, right Tor?" I nod and he smiles. "Let's eat" I say. He nods and puts Destiny in her car seat as I set the table. It's weird, just like old times.
