Hunter and Mikey had 'wrestled' a few matches and Mikey had won them all but by now a few of the guys were on their way down to ringside. Looking at the guys as they approached Hunter quickly stood up, "do you want the ring now?"
Shaking his head Jericho was the one to speak up, "nah, we're just bored so decided to come and watch. You can keep going as long as you want."
Nodding his head Hunter turned around to Mikey, "okay I want a rematch."
Mikey giggled, "I win 'gain."
Playfully shaking his head Hunter acted the tough guy, "no way, that was just a fluke."
Trish laughed, "you mean the last ten times were all flukes?"
Nodding his head Hunter played it tough, "exactly, I had a problem with my shoulder and couldn't kick out or wrestle properly."
Rolling her eyes she shook her head, "enough of the whining, let's get on with this."
As the next match began all of the guys were watching carefully as Hunter 'wrestled' Mikey in the ring and were amused as Trish counted Hunter's shoulders for the three.
As soon as the pin was counted Mikey jumped up, "I won, I won."
Hunter sat up and glared at Trish, "that was a fast count, you cheated."
Mikey giggled and walked closer to Hunter, "I wins, I wins."
As fast as lightning Hunter grabbed Mikey and pulled him down onto the mat and started to tickle him, "I win, I win."
Mikey lay on the mat laughing and squirming as Hunter tickled him until Trish smacked his shoulder gently, "let the boy up."
Reluctantly letting Mikey go Hunter sat back, "another match so I can redeem myself?"
Nodding his head the little boy sat up, "yup yup."
Watching as the new match between Hunter and Mikey got underway Jericho walked around the ring to stand next to Stephanie who was stood in front of the announce table, "whoever the woman is Hunter is seeing is doing wonders for him."
Turning her head to look at Jericho she raised her eyebrow, "what are you talking about?"
Motioning to the ring he didn't understand how she couldn't see it, "look at him. There is no way the old Hunter who you divorced and we had to deal with for the last four years would have gotten in the ring and willingly lost match after match to a child in front of the boys. He is clearly so happy in his personal life that he doesn't even care what happens in the ring even if it isn't televised."
Frowning she crossed her arms over her stomach holding herself, "you think so?"
Nodding his head he didn't get her reaction, "I don't think so, I know so. I've seen the change in him since you returned but moreso since he started dating that woman, he is so happy and relaxed, he is actually a joy to be around. Don't tell him I said any of that though."
Forcing a smile she politely nodded her head, "of course."
There was something she really had to do so stepping closer to the ring she watched as Mikey pinned Hunter again before she said, "Hunter, can I have a word please?"
Mikey giggled, "you's in twuble."
Exaggeratedly gulping Hunter stood up and walked over to the ropes, "yup?"
Shaking her head this couldn't be done here, "in private please."
Sighing he climbed out of the ring and jumped onto the floor, "Chris do you want to take over from me?"
Laughing Jericho shrugged, "sure, why not? I'm sure I can accomplish what you couldn't."
Watching Jericho climb into the ring he then turned to his girlfriend, "where to?"
Motioning to the empty portion of the stands, "over there."
Almost reluctantly he followed her as they walked out of the way of everyone but close enough that she could still watch the ring, this couldn't be good, "so what have I done?"
Frowning she looked at him oddly, "what have you done? I'm confused."
"Well you obviously pulled me out here to talk about something serious."
Shaking her head he had the wrong end of the stick, "it's not a bad thing, I've just been thinking."
He was confused, what did her thinking have to do with anything? Trying to think of the right way to word it he just said what came into his head, "do I want to hear this?"
Shrugging her shoulders she looked down at the floor nervously, "I don't know." Taking a deep breath she looked up at the ring and smiled softly seeing Jericho and Mikey 'wrestling' in the ring before she turned her attention to her boyfriend, "I want to tell people the truth."
His eyes widened in surprise, that had been the last thing he expected her to say, "the truth about what?"
"Everything. I want to tell people that we're back together, that you are Mikey's Dad, just everything. I don't want to hide any more."
Discreetly reaching for her hand he held it, "are you sure? Who do you want to tell?"
Squeezing his hand she bit down on her lip nervously, "everyone, the wrestlers and the fans. I'm sure about this though, I've been thinking about it a lot since my Dad said something and I realised that if you don't care what people think then I shouldn't either."
Looking at the ring to make sure that nobody would be able to see him holding her hand he was nervous about how she'd respond to this next question, "when and how do you want to tell people?"
Shrugging her shoulders she wished she had an answer for him, "I don't know. I was thinking about talking to my Dad when Mikey is done in the ring and seeing what he suggests. I don't want to wait forever to tell people but I want to do it in the right way so I'm hoping he will have some suggestions."
"You will have to let me know what he says."
Just as their conversation was coming to an end they heard Jericho shout, "that's not fair, you cheated."
Shaking her head Stephanie reluctantly removed her hand from Hunter's, "I think we'd better save Mikey."
Hunter smirked, "I think you mean Jericho, save him from a nervous breakdown."
Laughing she walked back towards the ring, "don't worry Chris, it will be our little secret that you lost to Mikey. Come on though Mikey, we should free the ring up so people who need the ring can use it. Say thank you to Trish and Jericho."
Pouting Mikey stood up before he ran over to Trish and Jericho and hugged them both, "fank 'oo."
Smiling they both hugged him back before they helped him climb out of the ring and get safely to the floor.
As soon as Mikey was on the floor Stephanie took his hand, "come on you."
Hunter watched as Stephanie went to walk off with Mikey without him being thanked so he leant on the ring and watched them calling after them, "you're welcome."
Spinning around on the spot Mikey let go of his Mom's hand and ran around the ring to Hunter practically flying into his arms, "I sowwie. Fank 'oo Hunner."
Chuckling he hugged the little boy tightly, "you're welcome, I had fun but remember, nobody needs to know how many times you beat me."
Giggling Mikey nodded his head, "I knows."
Releasing his grip Hunter watched as Mikey ran back towards his Mom who had just stood there silently watching the entire thing and he took her hand again and they headed backstage.
