"Emily! Daddy! Wake up!'' grinning as Alana ran into our room jumping on the bed "mm Lana." randy groaned tiredly pulling me closer to him grinning "good morning princess." opening the blanket for Alana to lay with us giggling she wiggled until her back was completely against my stomach Randy's arm holding both of us.
"I'm hungry." feeling randy chuckle behind me before kissing the back of my neck "ok baby let us get dressed we'll go eat." Alana jumped up running out of the room yelling "they're awake! We're getting waffles!" causing randy and I to laugh loudly "good morning." looking behind my shoulder at him randy grinned pecking my lips "good morning sweetheart." kissing him back I sighed my eyes heavy "are you guys dressed?" Alana yelled through the closed door causing both of us to laugh groaning we slowly sat up "give us a minute Alana." randy yelled out in more of an authoritative voice.

Watching randy walk around the room in his boxers pulling on clothes "you ok?" looking back at me sitting on the edge of the bed shrugging "I'm just gonna miss this." Randy grinned "and to think when you first got here you couldn't wait to leave this." shrugging "I'm excited for that but I'm gonna miss you, being with you every day." randy nodded squeezing my hand."I know sweetheart." biting my lip taking a deep breath "its scary." I whispered finally voicing my fears randy frowned "this is the first time in my adult life ill be an adult, what if I screw this up?" randy smiled cupping my face leaning in pecking my lips "Daddy." both of us laughing "let me get dressed she needs to eat." randy nodded holding onto my hand as I got out of the bed myself pulling me back to him "I love you and its all gonna be ok, your gonna rock this." nodding clearing my throat "I know."

Making it to breakfast in the hotel joining Stephanie Paul and the girls I sat between my sister and randy, Randy's hand planted on my upper thigh I was in a pair of a shorts and a black plain t shirt since I was done with work I decided to dress down "so when do you start at the hospital?" Randy's mom questioned "mm next Monday." Alana grinned "so you'll be at my dance recital next Friday?" looking at randy who nodded "yea if she can." I hadn't heard anything and I didn't want to over step with Samantha "oh you'll love it Emily we can go together, just let us know your schedule for the tickets." nodding "of course." Stephanie grinning at me.
"so how are you feeling there Paul?" grinning at my brother in law taking a bite of my fruit Paul shaking his head "like I've been hit by a damn mac truck multiple times in a row." shaking my head "it was insane to watch so close." Stephanie shook her head "did you finally catch the wrestling bug?" shaking my head "I've always been a fan, I just never wanted to be apart of it." shrugging stealing a piece of bacon off of Randy's plate raising his eye brow at me "hungry there?" laughing shrugging "I had a good work out." winking at him. Shaking his head laughing me not noticing my parents in the corner my father's eyes on our table.
"oh Nate is excited to show you around." Ellen mentioned randy shaking his head "tell Nathan ill kick his ass he takes her anywhere sketchy." frowning looking back at randy who shook his head "Nate doesn't always think." bob laughing nodding in agreence "don't worry boy, we'll keep an eye on her for you." leaning against randy laying my head on his shoulder.

"So randy when are you back in the title picture?" bob changing the subject laughing randy nodded to Stephanie "ask the powers that be." the subject changing to wrestling.
Hugging his parents outside the airport "ok we'll see you two tomorrow?" his mom was picking us up from the airport randy nodded "yep ma." hugging his mom "we'll take care of you sweetheart have no worries." bob hugging me tightly I couldn't help but grin hugging him back immediately going back to Randy's side waving bye to his parents and Alana "I'm gonna miss her." randy chuckled kissing the side of my head "me too sweetheart." sighing getting back into his rental "ugh my dad is texting me." looking at my phone Randy raised his eye brow glancing at me "what does he want?" reading the text "just to know when ill be at the arena, and when I get there to come find him, think his gonna sign it tonight?" looking at randy frowning his face suddenly tense gripping the steering wheel tightly "you ok?'' nodding his head his jaw twitching "I'm good sweetheart and I don't know." nodding but feeling that distant feeling as silence took over the rental.
Staring out the window watching the buildings and cars pass us by hearing randy sigh putting his hand on top of me "you sure your ok?" looking at him as he pulled into the arena nodding parking "I'm good sweet heart." he promised nodding "ok ill come find you?" nodding he leaned in cupping my face kissing me moaning when he deepened it "mm." kissing him back with just as much passion "I love you." nodding "I love you to."
Walking through the arena it felt odd being here and not employed and not under any obligation, well almost not under any obligation, it just felt lighter though "Emily." hearing Lilly call out to me stopping I smiled "well you look very different out of those scrubs." laughing I shoved my hands in my pockets nodding "you excited?" biting my lip looking at my friend "I'm fucking petrified lil." I admitted to her "its easy to do all the right things when I have too, what if he signs this paper and that control I've had goes away?" Lilly shook her head hugging me.
"Emily you never belonged there, you never deserved to be controlled." pulling away "you have it together, don't think otherwise and don't let anyone else make you think or feel otherwise." sighing I nodded "I gotta go meet my dad, but I'll see you."
Lilly nodded "of course, let me know." waving bye to her I finished my walk to my dads office blowing out a breath I shakily knocked hearing him yell come in, I took a deep breath walking into his office.
"you wanted to see me?" I questioned nodding "sit down." I felt like I was in trouble not like something great was going to happen watching as my farther sat back "Emily I know you feel a certain way about all of this, and I want you to know that everything your mother and I do is for whats best for you." biting my lip choosing to stay quiet "I do love you Emily, i wish you had come to me about the man, I wish you would give up his name now, about you and randy, the baby." biting my lip sitting back myself "I cant name him dad." Vince fought back a smile at me finally calling him dad I suppose if he was willing to try I should be as well right?
"I don't name him to anyone to be honest, his voldermert." Vince frowned not getting my reference "harry potter?" still looking confused "his who shall not be named ok, and the rest I didn't know how to come to you, I've loved randy since I first met him I didn't want to lose him, and I didn't want him to lose his carrier." biting my lip sighing "I literally knew I was pregnant for six hours before I lost that baby and I blamed myself which I should have for so many years so I didn't speak of it." Vince nodded pushing a folder my way reaching for it "now upon thinking of it, I made some changes to our original agreement." frowning what did he mean?
Opening the folder I sat back tears burning my eyes "why?" what did I need to do? "I'm stating you don't have to live with your mother and I, you can make job choices, education choices, finance freedom all of that, I'm just reserving the right for the next six months that if I see any signs that your slipping I can reinstate the guardianship." I wasn't free I was never going to be free tears burnt my eyes "you bastard." pushing the folder back at him "I have done nothing in the last eight months to deserve this! I have proven, I show up to work even when things are hard in my personal life." Vince scuffed "yea and cause backstage fights between my super stars." frowning feeling like he just stabbed me "I cannot control what others do."
Vince nodded "you can pick better partners, it worries me you choose to go back to randy, it worries me that during this relationship randy has attacked another wrestler over you, everything about you two worries me." biting my lip I covered my mouth shaking my head nodding "I get it Vince, am I good to go?" looking at him his face falling "am I allowed to go?" nodding watching me as I silently stood up "I hope you know when I am fully free of this bullshit you will never see me again." feeling so much hate towards my farther slamming out of his office.
Wanting to find randy my vision blurred by tears I no longer cared to hide from others, screw Vince McMahon, screw the McMahon name and screw this company! "whoa whoa wheres the fire?" hearing Jon's voice feeling him stop me I seen him and Lilly my heart breaking pointing the direction of my father's office "his a bastard, I hate him." I cried feeling Lilly hug me "I need randy please." I cried sliding down the wall Lilly still holding me to her "ok, ok Jon please." pulling my knees to my chest as I sobbed "I hate him, god I hate him so fucking much."
NO ONES POV- "Jon I know you don't want to but please." Lilly looked at her cousin as he watched Emily fall apart "em." crouching down in front her "I need you to take some deep breaths ok sunshine? Inhale with me exhale with me, come on." Jon started taking deep breaths with her "ok just breath, I'm gonna go find randy for you, but keep breathing." looking at Lilly who was holding Emily to her she nodded at her cousin knowing this was hard for him to get randy hell it was hard for lily but she could tell randy helped Emily, he really does love her.
Jon walked around in search for the women he was in love with boyfriend finally finding him "Orton." randy turned around raising an eye brow "you have got to be kidding me." rolling his eyes "look I would much more rather be the hero but Emily's in the hall falling apart crying." Randy frowned "take me to her." Jon nodded leading randy to Emily who was still doing the breathing in and out the way he showed her.
Randy was now in front of her "hey hey come here." gently pulling her from lily's arm looking at lily "what happened?" wrapping his arms tightly around Emily pulling her into his lap "shh sweetheart take some breaths."
"I don't know we where headed in and she almost ran into me I stopped her and she was like this, she just keeps saying she hates him and she wants you." randy frowned nodding standing up with Emily in his arms "uh thanks, I uh got her from here." lily frowned staring at her friend sighing as much as randy disliked the women he knew Emily was going to need her friend the most someone who understood her better then most in her life "ill have her text you." lily nodded thanking randy.
Turning to Jon he sighed "uh thanks for getting me." Jon bit back his smart ass come back for the sake of Emily "yea just uh take care of her." randy nodded doing the same wanting to tell Jon he always does, but he just turned walking out towards his bus, what the hell happened in that meeting?
EMILY'S POV-

Feeling randy lay me down on his bed I felt him running his hands over the top of my head through my hair "shh your ok." starting to calm down I sighed "he didn't sign." Randy's face dropped "why?" shrugging "he doesn't fully trust me and my decision making skills." I muttered closing my eyes "its my fault you and Jon got into that fight, and I wont tell him about him, so it makes me UN trusting, we can revisit in six months, I do have my own finance freedom, can move and don't have to legally live with my parents anymore so I got that for myself." Randy frowned staying quiet as I blabbered "I hate him randy." looking at my boyfriend who sighed "I don't think you hate him, your angry and you have every right to be." shaking my head "no I hate him."

Knock knock "randy your up." a stage head called out sighing randy looked turn "its ok go work." Randy sighed "I wont be long and then we can just go home ok?" nodding randy sighed kissing the side of my head "I love you." nodding at him I leaned up kissing him back "I love you.'' sighing when the knocking started again "I'M FUCKING COMING.'' standing up slowly making his way out of the bus.
I buried my face into the pillow trying to stop the crying I felt like he just ripped the rug out from underneath me.

NO ONES POV-

Randy wrapped up his segment and was now looking for Vince he wasn't at gorilla coward getting to his office opening the door randy glared at the old man "what the hell is wrong with you? Your punishing her for my actions? Your punishing her f or being a victim of sexual assault?" shaking his head Vince stood up "you still don't get it do you? I do not want my daughter with you, and if this is how I control her from running off and making the same mistake with you she did all those years so be it, so as long as shes with you I will not sign those papers." randy frowned "fine ill get her a lawyer fight we'll fight this." Vince shrugged "I'm sure my lawyers will drag this, you and her through court for years Orton so you want to waste your money so be it."

Randy shook his head "you should be proud of her Vince, proud of how strong she is, strong of how smart she is shes a doctor man! A fucking doctor! Despite all that has happened to her she showed the will to become a fucking doctor because that's how much she wants to help people, help children!' Vince nodded clearing his throat grabbing his brief case "I am proud of her for that accomplishment, but when it comes to her personal life she doesn't seem to make the right choices, once she can prove to me she can do that then I'll sign off in six months, you decide randy you want to keep her from her freedom? Or let her go and let her be free?" leaving randy standing seething smacking the desk before leaving the room himself.

Randy didn't want to end things with her, he felt corned Vince was right with his money and lawyers it'd be years in court, Vince could spend the rest of his life fighting this and he would just to be spiteful, he was punishing randy, and hurting Emily in the process.
EMILY'S POV-

I felt the mattress sink and heard the bus start "hi." I whispered to randy feeling him gently kiss my lips "hi, you ok?" shrugging I scoot to sit up looking at randy "I hate him randy, I know his my "dad."" using my fingers to quote the word dad "but he doesn't act like it, his always hated me randy and I don't know hwy, I don't get it I don't get what I did to him and this is more then you, then him, what happened to me its been since I was a kid." Randy frowned his finger tips tracing circles over my bare skin "I don't know sweet heart I don't get it either, I'm sorry." looking up at me I frowned "I don't want to spend our last couple nights together like this, he doesn't get that from me.

Randy nodded but stayed quiet staring "Randy are you ok?" looking at me he sighed pulling me to him "I just hate your going through this, I don't know what to do to fix it." laying my head on his chest "Just being here with me right now like this helps." closing my eyes listening to the beating of Randy's chest feeling him run gentle circles over my lower back "just don't leave me." I whispered to him before drifting off from exhaustion.
NO ONES POV- Randy watched her sleep her words playing over and over in his head "don't leave me." but that's the only way he knew how to fix this for her, guarantee her freedom quicker then years down the road "I don't want to leave you sweetheart." deciding he would do it right before he went back on the road one more day of being happy before he shattered her entire world "please don't hate me." he knew the moment the six months was up he would do whatever he could to get her back but until then he had to let her go as much as he didn't want to.

Walking into my town house we had spent most of the morning with his family who already lifted my spirits, I could do it this way for six months between work, Alana, oddly enough even Samantha and of course randy. Well I hoped randy, he had been quiet and that distant feeling was back "ok what is going on randy? You been distant from me for the last week." I sighed looking at him he sighed staying quiet looking around he looked torn "randy, please talk to me." I begin to beg him.
Randy took my hand he looked so sad I didn't understand "I think uh, I think we need to pump the brakes on us, let you get uh situated in this new chapter of your life." clearing his throat, frowning I burrowed my eyes in confusion.

"I don't understand." Randy sighed "I think we need to take a break from us, focus on you, your new job." yanking my hand from his "Randy what the fuck are you talking about?" this was opposite of everything we had just talked about sighing running his hand over his mouth "I just uh think this will be better for you, for us."

I frowned staring at Randy confused at his words "No." I whispered fighting back the tears that was threatening to spill everywhere feeling sick "you literally just proposed to me on Saturday randy! Is it because I said no?" shaking his head no "no its not that sweetheart." frowning at him "then what is it randy? What was just a quick fun lay?" my anger taking over my heart break for a moment my mind spinning.

NO ONES POV-

"fuck no Emily! I just want you to experience all of this before you settle down, I'm look my time when I'm home needs to be with Alana, not trying to split time up between you your busy schedule, and my daughter." He swallowed hard fighting back his own tears immediately wanting to take the words back "This between us just moved too fast." He lied ripping his own heart out as he watched the heartbreak take over her face, he was lying, she looked at him as if she could tell he was lying, he casted his eyes down to not see hers.

He loved her more then anything in this world other then his daughter but that was a different love, he didn't want to do this but he wouldn't be the cost of her freedom again, her family was right she deserved this chance to discover herself, find out the women he knew she was.

She didn't deserve to be tied down to a man who was rarely around and spent her rare free time with his daughter and not give her that extra time she deserved. She deserved to be whined and dined and spoiled, he could spoil her with things but she wasn't that kind of women, she needed to be spoiled with affection and he couldn't do that being thousands of miles away all the time.

"please just go, I don't know why your doing this Randy, I know your lying, I just don't understand why." She turned her head refusing to look at him, he wanted to reach out and comfort her, tell her the truth, that her farther said he wouldn't sign, he'd go back to court, he'd take all of this away from her, but she didn't deserve that heart break on top of everything else she dealt with, it killed him watching her like this, clearing his throat he nodded "uh yea." And with every ounce of strength he had he walked out of her townhouse and her life, tomorrow she would start a new life, one without memories of gorge, or her baby, or him attached to it and that gave him the strength to walk away and give her that life.

EMILY'S POV-

I let out a sob as I heard my front door shut, I looked around the quiet and empty town house, my furniture scheduled to arrive later this evening, the only thing I made sure I had right away was my bed.

I climbed the stairs blankly staring trying out when this happened, what had happened? And why this just happened we where so happy and talking plans, I signed a six months lease with intent to move in with him after words, I don't get it! Why was he doing this? He literally two days ago asked me to marry him! Was it because I said no? He seemed to understand when I explained it to him.
