Broken

 

 

Chapter 1

 

~~1995~~

 

“I’m sorry Lori, I really hate to tell you this…but your back is…is completely broken in half.  I can’t understand why you haven’t become paralyzed yet, you should of lost full function of your arms and legs as soon as this happened…The only thing I can think of, is that your spinal cord is still intact…(as the doctor in the white doctor’s jacket readjusted the glasses resting on the bridge of his nose…and went over the note in the chart)…Someone said your husband did this to you…Aren’t you barely 17?”

 

I looked around the hospital room and up at the doctor from the very uncomfortable hospital bed and said, “Yes sir…my husband did this to me…were actually in the process of getting a divorce…he’s not to happy with the idea and came over to our old apartment last night to pick up the rest of his things…we started arguing and he threw me down the concrete stairs outside our apartment…which would also be the reason for the divorce.  This isn’t the first injury I’ve received at the hands of my husband…but it certainly is the most serious.”

 

As Dr. Andrews continued to look over my X-rays and MRI’s…I thought back to when I married Bryan…I met Bryan when I was 15…my mother had been battling breast cancer for 6 years…and a year later a week after my 15th birthday, she finally lost the battle…her body just couldn’t take it anymore…and finally gave out…a year to the day that my mother died…my father died also…even after the autopsy and tests, they found nothing wrong with him, they said he was a completely health man…My Nana believes, he died from a broken heart from losing my mother…2 weeks after my father died, I married Bryan at 16.

 

Want a recap?  Okay…Met Mike at 15, within a one year span I lost both parents to death, thought I was in love and married at 16…and then everything fell apart…Now at 17, almost 18..Getting divorced and laying in a hospital bed with a broken back, courtesy of my soon to be ex-husband, whose rotting in jail as I speak…but for how long I don’t know…and there’s a doctor standing over me telling me, he’s going to do surgery on my back in the morning.

 

Could my life get any better?

 

The next face I see at the door is my cousin Mark  and he’s pretty much my best friend…Mark walked over to the bed ad had fire in his eyes…he knew Bryan had done this to me and really wanted to kill him, but he stayed calm while with me, cause he wanted to make sure I was alright…He was even more pissed off when the doctor told him what happened, what was injured and just exactly what they were going to do about it…

 

His mom was my mom’s sister and when my mom died, my aunt just kind of went numb…she eats, sleeps, and sits by her bedroom window, just forever staring out for hours and hours upon end…With me and Mark being only children, we just clung to each other as not only cousins but best friends, we’ve seen each other at our very worst and out best.

 

Mark leaned over and gave me a gentle hug and a kiss on the forehead and said some reassuring words before sitting down next to my bed and grunting out, “I’m gonna kill that little fucker!”  Then proceeded to watch over me as I fell asleep from the pain killers the nurse had given me.

 

The next day when I woke up after the surgery, I had 4 bendable metal rods surrounding my spin where the break was, everything was fused together and then wrapped with a sturdy and thick wire up and down the rods that was around my spine…of course I had a 12 inch scar that went down the middle of my back…but I wasn’t paralyzed or dead so everything was okay for me…

 

 

Chapter 2

 

When this all happened, I had been with my cousin training to be a professional wrestler…the doctor said I could still continue the training after a year of physical therapy and being fully healed…

 

 

~~1999~~

 

 

It’s been 4 years since the surgery, Bryan had been refusing to give me a divorce.   After the courts reviewed my case, they forced him to give me the divorce…I continued my wrestling training with Mark…though him and his best friend Devon were picked up first by ECW.

 

The CEO of the WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) Vince McMahon, saw me wrestle one night and snatched me and sent me to OVW for some extra training and what not…after 6 months, Mark called me and told me him and Devon had been signed to the WWE…Which I thought was awesome, cause at least we could be in the same company…and keep an eye on each other.

 

 

~~2000~~

 

 

A year after being sent to OVW, Mr. McMahon had me sent over to the WWE and that’s where all the good shit went down.

 

By The Way…My name is Lori McCombs…I’m 21…well almost 22…5’10” and 125lbs…blue eyes, and brownish-blonde hair to just below my booty…I have lost of different names I go by…the ones that most people use are Lori or Chickeys…Mark’s nick name for me.

 

I know what you’re thinking…only 125 lbs?  How in the world do you take down your opponent with only 125 lbs backing you?…Easy!, because I can…I’m not saying I’m better then anyone else, cause I’m by no means better then the next person…I’m just saying if someone who is a 100 lbs heavier is coming at you…you should probably have some kind of plan of attack, especially if you plan on getting that person off their feet long enough to win the match…

 

Chapter 3

 

I had on jeans, steel toe boots and a black “Dudleyville” t-shirt on, and it was tied in front to show off and inch and a half of my bare mid-drift and navel ring…I had about an inch or more of my hair cut off, cause now it was up to my waist…and I left it down…

 

I was walking through the back of the arena in New York looking for Mark and Devon, when I couldn’t find them, I walked up to these two guys who looked to be engaged in a serious conversation…man talk about feeling like being out of place…One was close to 6’4” 260lbs.  Dirty blonde hair to just below his shoulders, but pulled back into a low pony tail and his mustache go-tee matched his hair…the other gentleman he was talking to…

 

So I walked up and said, “Excuse me gentlemen…”  The one who was slightly shorter said, “What can I do for you ma’am?”  I pushed my hair behind my left ear, cause I could feel the other guy staring a hole through me…and said, “I’m looking for Mark LaMonica…Could you point me in his general direction, please?”  The one staring at me, in a menacing voice said, “He’s down in his dressing room.”  With the sound of distain in his voice…I was getting the general ‘I shouldn’t have interrupter them’ vibe from the sound of his voice…

 

The nicer one said, “Mark is about 6 doors that way.”  As he pointed down the hallway…I smiled and said, “Thank you.”  The meaner said, “Uh-huh.” As the nicer one said, “No problem…” And as he didn’t think I was listening, I heard him say, “yes, and if you need anything else…sex, massage, world rocking orgasm…please let me know…”  He said it under his breath but I still heard him…and tried not to giggle as I walked away…They both watched me walk away…

 

Shawn said, “Now, she’s cute!”  Paul said, “Damn cute!…but she’s nothing but trouble…and she’s hiding something…”  Shawn rolled his eyes at him and went back to their conversation.

 

I was half way to Mark’s dressing room when I heard, “LORI!”  I turned around and it was Mark’s girlfriend Trish (Stratus)…I said, “Holy Shit!…”  She ran over and I leaned down and gave her a hug…Trish said, “Lori, what are you doing here?  I thought you were at OVW?”  I said , “Yea, I was…apparently Vinnie thought I was ready for the big time, cause he sent for me.” 

 

Trish said, “Right on…Dude I’ve been so waiting for you to get here…I can’t believe you finally made it…Have you seen Mark yet?”  I said, “I was just looking for him..”  She said, “He’s down at the ring practicing for Monday Night Raw tomorrow…Him and Devon have a big match for the Tag belts…c’mon, we can go down there..”  I said, “Okay…”

 

I followed the 5’7” shorty, down to the ring in the middle of the arena…the guys were in the ring with the two guys, I had talked to a few seconds earlier…We were laughing and when Mark looked up he saw me and said, “Chickeys, what are you doing here?!?”  I looked up and smiled at him and said, “I’ve come to beat your ass down!”  Mark jumped out of the ring and came over and gave me a huge bear hug…

 

Mark said, “I’ve missed you…”  I said, “Mmmm, I know me too…”  Devon came over and gave me a huge hug too…I said, “It’s so good to see you guys again…I was starting to go through Buh-Buh and Devon with drawls…”  Mark said, “So are you done with OVW?”  I said, “Yup…Vinnie sent for me, so I’m assuming he thinks I’m ready to move on…”  Mark said, “YES! The crazy ass family is back together again..”

 

I said, “Not so fast…It seems I’m already spoken for…I will be working with two guys named Paul Levesque and Shawn Michaels…”  Mark pointed his thumb behind him and said, “They are Paul and Shawn…”  I said, “Oh…I don’t think the one with all the muscles likes me much, I kind of interrupted his conversation with the other one, and asked them where you were..”  He said, “C’mon I’ll introduce you…”  I stepped back and said, “I don’t know…”  Mark said, “C’mon, they won’t bite..”  I went into the ring with Mark reluctantly…

 

Chapter 4

 

We walked over and I stood behind Mark and he said, “Paul, Shawn this is my cousin, Lori McCombs, she just got out of OVW, and it seems as though she’ll be assigned to you guys. Chickeys, this is Paul Levesque and Shawn Michaels.”  When I shook Paul’s hand he tightened his grip a little, to show me whose boss…and Shawn gave a goofy smile…

 

Shawn said, “So what name do you go by?”  I said, “I wrestle under Lori…but if you like Chickeys…then go for it…”  Shawn said, “What’s Chickeys?”  I said, “My loveable cousin calls me that…he’s called me that since I was 5.”  Mark said, “Okay, so we need to finish practicing and going over our shit…you wanna come join us?”  I said, “I can’t I have my electrodes on…”  Mark said, “I didn’t even see it…”  I turned around and the battery pack was in my back pocket with four separate wires, went up my shirt…I said, “I’m getting better at hiding it…” 

 

Mark said, “You’ve been hiding it for 4 years…I think you are getting better…”  I said, “I just don’t like all the questions…it’s no one’s business, but mine…”  Mark said, “Did you tell Vince yet?”  I said, “Oh, yea, I told him when he sent me to OVW…which he talked to Dr. Andrews, and put some restrictions in my contract, to keep me safe…”  I got out of the ring and they finished up practicing…

 

The electrodes as I called them, was just basically light shock therapy for my back, it kept my nerves in check and would ease any type of pain or discomfort I would have with traveling…any time I was on a plane, in a car, or bus…anything that had to do with traveling…I had the little adhesive electro pads hooked up to it’s battery pack and attached to my spine in 4 different places…it was also a good form of therapy, it worked my back, even when I wasn’t moving…

 

On the way back to the dressing room Paul said, “See, I told you she was hiding something…”  Shawn said, “I wander what else she’s hiding?”  Paul said, “I’m sure I don’t know…but with women anything is possible.”

 

A few weeks later…Paul and I had actually gotten a little closer…we did a lot of talking every night before and after our matches…I still hadn’t told anyone one anything too personal about me…Then one night it happened…Paul started the night off completely grouchy, and jumped all over my case for it…

 

We were getting ready to walk out to the ring for something…at the time I couldn’t remember, cause I was getting mad at listening to Paul bitch…I turned to him 3 seconds before his music cued up and said, “Paul, do the world a favor and practice safe sex…Go screw yourself!”  Just the his music hit and I walked out ahead of him and Shawn…who both were just standing there with their mouths hanging open…looking at me like ‘Damn’..

 

Shawn said, “Well, I guess she told you…”  Paul said, “Oh, pipe down, she didn’t tell me shit…and she’ll be telling me even less when I pedigree her ass in the middle of the ring…”  Shawn said, “Paul, don’t do that…”  Paul said, “I will, she needs to be taken down off that high horse and have the ice thawed off her for a while…and don’t you dare stop me, or you’ll be next…”

 

Shawn knew not to cross his best friend when he was in a mood…and a bad one at that too…

 

I had to stand out there and listen to Paul run his mouth and watch Shawn nod his head like a lost puppy…and that’s when Paul turned to me, totally in Triple H…Cerebral Assassin character, but extremely off the script…and started blaming me for him and Shawn losing their Tag belts to the Dudley’s…said it was my fault that I just got in the way…I started backing away…when Paul grabbed  me by the head…I knew he was going to probably pedigree me…and it was one of the stipulations in my contract…I was to never be pedigreed or choke slammed…

 

Paul decided he was going to power bomb me instead…when he flipped me up…I was thinking and moving quicker then I had the time for…I wrapped my right leg around his neck and applied a little pressure by tightening my thigh and calve muscles and it slowly, cut off Paul’s air supply…he fell back on to the matt…and I actually landed on my feet…looking down at Paul who was laying at my feet…Shawn looked at me and said, “What the hell?”  I said, “He’s fine…I just quietly knocked him out…before he tried to knock me out…he’s probably going to be mad when he wakes up…fair warning…”  I left the ring…

 

Shawn was just staring at Paul…he was dumb founded, he couldn’t believe, LORI just knocked out Paul Levesque…the great man who calls himself the Cerebral Assassin…with one shot!

 

Chapter 5

 

After I left the ring…I left the arena and went back to the hotel…and I sat in my room hiding out…you see, it wasn’t that I was afraid of Paul or anything…it was just that I was falling in love with him on the inside and didn’t want anyone to see me cry, because he up set me by actually trying to hurt me…I mean, c’mon, I had just barely been divorced for 2 years…and here was this great guy who my heart was trying to make me fall in love with and pretty much succeeding at…and he was trying to purposely hurt me…

 

Sometimes I can be a bitch but then there are other times like these, when I can be such a GIRL!  After everything that happened between me and my ex-husband and all the shit he put me through…I had learned really fast when it came to being hurt…never let anyone see you cry…I had also noticed I had become a little more emotional, since everything had happened 4 years ago.

 

Mark was sitting in the back when everything went down and after I blew out of the arena like a tornado whooshing past a trailer park…Mark looked at Trish and said, “Oh yea, she likes him…”  Trish said, “How can you tell?”  Mark said, “10 to 1, she’s on her way to the hotel to cry…her and Levesque have been arguing all night and that last time he blew up at her, she got really quiet, which means he said something that hurt her feelings…and in true cousin form, she probably gave some kind of smart ass come back…which prompted Paul to want to jump script and  power bomb her…”

 

Mark sighed and continued, “Which…with all the time they’ve been spending together in the last 3 months and getting to know each other, she’s upset that he would try and physically hurt her in any way…I mean words, can be mean, but once you’ve been in an abusive relationship like she has…it can get to people…and every once in a while it gets to her…she’s falling in love with Paul, and she doesn’t want to let her self feel that way again, especially with what happened in her last relationship and Paul doesn’t even see any of it…but I think after tonight he just might…but then again maybe not…after what he just pulled she might ignore him for a little while…and there is no body on the face of this earth who can ignore you more the that sassy cousin of mine…no one!”

 

Trish and Devon looked at Mark and both said, “Damn!”…Trish said, “Is that the long or the short version?”  Mark smiled and said, “That’s the extended version…”  Trish giggled and said, “Paul needs a little spice in his life and I believe, Lori is the perfect person to give up the hot seasoning.”  Mark nodded and fully agreed with Trish..

 

After Paul woke up in the middle of the ring, he went tearing though the back of the arena looked for Lori…with Shawn hot on his heels…Mark stopped Paul dead in his tracks and said, “She went back to the hotel and there’s no use in going after her, she’s not going to want to talk to you.”  Paul said, “Did you see what she did…she choked me out…with some kind of sleeper hold.”  Mark said, “She’s famous for it cause, she can put it on anyone, anywhere and you deserved it…man I can’t believe you jumped script and was gonna power bomb my little cousin…you got exactly what you were looking for…by the way, what was the last thing Lori said to you?”  Paul said, “She said, ‘do the world a favor, practice safe sex and go screw yourself.’…I don’t think anyone has ever said that to me before…it was interesting to hear…”  Mark said, “Yea, I bet…”

 

Paul ran his hand through his long hair and sighed heavy…and left the arena…he went to the hotel and banged on my door for 30 minutes…I ignore people excellently…I put on my head phones, and turned the volume up on my cd player, and then went to bed…even with as much as I wanted to let Paul in and take him to bed with me…I ignored that feeling and slept…

 

Chapter 6

 

After a few weeks of not speaking to Paul, he kind of got fed up with it…and started talking with Mark about me…they were sitting in Paul and Shawn’s dressing room before one of the shows…and Paul said, “Mark, why do I get the feeling Lori is hiding something from everyone…like some deep dark secret…”  Mark looked at him and said, “Probably, because she is…but It’s not my place to talk about it…she has her privacy and I never cross that line…she does have a past she’s running and hiding from but other then me telling you that…that’s all I have to right to talk about.”

 

Paul said, “That’s understandable…” 

 

Mark said, “I will tell you right now…the reason she’s ignoring you, is because you hurt her…I realize it might not mean a whole lot to you, but in the 3 months that Chickeys has been here, she’s grown quite fond of the friendship you two have…and the fact that you was going to actually bring physical harm to her by Power bombing her, hurt her and I think it probably scared her too…she’s not afraid of you per say…but she’s just scared of someone whose bigger then her hurting her…I realize she’s no ant like Trish, but at the same time, she’s not as strong like you and Shawn…I’ll also tell you, that she’s got some serious feelings for you…I don’t know what all it entails, or how deep the feelings run, but I know it’s deep enough that you hurt her…”

 

Paul decided to take matters into his own hands…especially once, he heard everything Paul had to tell him…

 

I was sitting in my hotel room listening to some music…when there was a knock on the door, as I walked over to the door, I turned the music off…I had the door open to the balcony, and was getting a really great breeze blowing through the hotel room…I had on some khaki colored cargo pants, no shoes or socks, and a red tank top on, and had left my hair down…I opened the door and came face to face with Paul…I started to shut the door, but he stopped it with his hand, I pretty much knew he was stop less, you know kind of like trying to put gauze in front of a semi to stop it…it wasn’t happening…

 

I just sighed hard and turned around and walked away…I stood in the open door to the balcony and let the breeze run through every strand of my hair.  Paul walked in and closed the door behind him and walked over and was about 10 feet from me…Paul said, “So when is you’re little silent treatment going to end?  I mean, I really miss talking with you…considering you can piss me off in 4 seconds or less…and with your smart ass attitude…you’re exactly like me…I still miss the sound of your voice…C’mon Lori…Just tell me to go to hell or something…I just want to hear your voice.”

 

I kept my back to him…Paul said, “You realize you’re going to make me use my powers of persuasion to force you to talk to me…”  I gave that little ‘oh you think so’ grunt, but still kept my back to him.  Paul smiled…he absolutely loved a challenge.  I had my arms crossed over my chest, holding onto my bearings…Paul walked up behind me, and I could feel the heat radiating off his body…about 3 seconds later, I felt him put his hands on the outside part of my shoulders, and I swear I could feel a burning on my skin…he slowly slid his hands down my arms to my elbows, I could feel the heat trailing after his hands…his left hand went off my arm and slid to my waist, and I could feel the heat trailing along my mid-drift, since my shirt was up a little in front…his right hand slid up between the valley of my breasts and came to rest around my throat…and I tensed up…Paul leaned down and I could feel his lips against my ear and he whispered, “Relax, Lori I’m not going to hurt you…I promise…”  The sound of his voice being so low, was enough to send shivers down my spine…

 

I had to exhale…I had to be strong and resist him…yea right, like resistance was really an option…Paul slid his tongue around the outside of my ear…never making a sound or saying a word to me…it was kind of like a silent attack…then his tongue slid down the back of my ear, and he lips connected to the side of my neck, I really had to breathe then, just cause I could feel him breaking through the wall I had specifically put up to ward off guys…my breathing was starting to get a little on the excited side…Paul could hear me breathing and knew he was slowly getting through…he mentally smiled to himself, but never broke his concentration. 

 

Chapter 7

 

My arms slowly untensed and fell to my sides…then one hand was on top his Paul’s hand around my throat…and the other had snaked it’s way around to the back of his thigh,, and just sat there.  I could feel his erection slowly growing bigger and bigger as it pushed into my body…as he pushed on my mid-drift to be closer to his body…which I had no problem with…Paul turned me around and I just looked at him, with absolutely no emotion on my face…

 

I think I was pretty much speechless as to what he was doing to me…Paul cupped my face in his huge hands and leaned down and his lips came to mine and burned my lips in a crazy kiss…and just intensified when I let a half moan/half sigh escape through my lips and enter his mouth…which he knew I was fully enjoying what he was doing to me…

 

Paul pulled me in the door and led me to the bedroom…Paul sat on the corner of the bed and stood me in front of him…Paul said, “Still not ready to talk?”  I raised my eyebrow at him as if to say, ‘what do you think?’… As Paul was sitting I came face to face with him now…He pulled me over to him by the waistline on my pants, and started kissing on my neck again…Just feeling his lips somewhere on my body was enough to make me insane…

 

Paul’s hands started sliding up my shirt, as he cupped one breast in each hand…his hands were so warm…as soon as his hands come in contact with my nipples they hardened in the blink of an eye…Paul pushed my shirt up, over my head and threw it across the room…after starting the assault on my nipples with his mouth…he was tugging at my pants and got them down…with my panties…after which we went back to kissing again, and I couldn’t help but let my finger tips pulled and untucked his t-shirt from his levis, while he caressed my tongue with his…

 

By the time we were both fully naked…Paul’s erection was so big, it was scaring me…I swear, I had never seen a guy that big before…so it was just kind of a mystery on exactly how he was going to get THAT in to ME…

 

Paul leaned against the head board…and as I crawled up his legs on my hands and knees…My face was just about to pass his erection…and I decided to just give him a little tease…I still hadn’t said a single word to the man…I leaned my head down and slowly ran my tongue up the length of his erection…Paul let out a very slow half deep growl, half moan…when I got to the head of his erection, I guess you could say I sort of French kissed it…

 

As I looked up at Paul, who looked down at me at the same time…I stared into his hazel eyes as I pushed my lips together and blew hot air on his erection, which must have drove him completely crazy, cause he grabbed my shoulders and pulled me up and sat me straddled on his lap…We started kissing again, and Paul moved us around to where we were laying down, and he rolled over and was kneeling between my thighs, and as he kissed, my lips and moved to my neck, he slowly pushed his erection into the core of my wetness…and I let out a yelp…

 

I hadn’t been with anyone since my husband, so I wasn’t really prepared for Paul’s length and thickness…it was pretty painful…Paul looked in my eyes, and saw the tears gathering in my eyes…Paul kissed my eyes, he was being gentle with me, cause he knew something was up…he wasn’t sure, if I was still a virgin, or if he was just really big compared to the other guys I had been with…Paul sat still for a couple of minutes, just letting me adjust and get used to his size being inside of me…

 

After a couple of minutes, my eyes were looking down and I wouldn’t look at Paul…He said, “Lori…look at me…”  I blinked a couple of times, and tears slid down…and I looked at him…He said, “Are you okay?”  I nodded yes…He said, “You want me to continue?”  I nodded yes again…and he kissed my lips so tenderly and gently…as he started slowing moving in and out of me…which obviously didn’t hurt anymore…his slow movements turned into raging passion we had for each other, as he started thrusting into me, and I was matching every single one of his thrusts…

 

I think at one point I had to of moaned his name cause he looked at me shocked, because the whole time I hadn’t said a word sticking to my silence…as soon as I moaned his name for that one split second, he started thrusting harder…I could feel the sanity slipping away from me as I could feel my orgasm rising inside of me, but not yet letting it be released…

 

Paul was pretty quiet, with the exception of a growl from the back of his throat or a deep moan that emitted from his chest past his throat and out…as I could feel Paul twitching inside of me, I knew his orgasm was just as close as mine…he pushed my legs further apart, and his thrusts started going deeper…after a few more thrusts, we both climaxed at the same time…stopping just south of sanity…

 

 

Chapter 8

 

Paul pulled out of me, and rolled over to the side of the bed…he pulled me over to him…and we said nothing to each other…as much as I wanted to say something to him and shock the hell out of him…I wanted to still be upset with the way he had treated me a few weeks before…

 

I know it might sound petty, but I just couldn’t believe the same man who just made passion love to me, wanted to power bomb me in the middle of the ring…I just couldn’t imagine why he had wanted to deliberately jump script and hurt me that way…I couldn’t get the image out of my head…I knew I would have to eventually talk with him about why he did it…and especially after what we had just done in that bed…

 

I laid there, and was tracing his huge hand that was laying next to me…just studying it…I was running my fingers over his soft hand…I couldn’t believe how soft his hand was, I felt his breathing slow, I knew he had fallen asleep…I moved around a little and pushed myself back against him, and he automatically reacted by holding onto me tighter and pulled me closer.

 

We slept through the night…

 

When I woke up in the morning…I noticed, the arms were missing from around me…I sat up with the sheet wrapped around me…and he was gone…Paul had actually left before I woke up…I got out of bed and walked around the hotel room with the sheet still wrapped around me…maybe it was all a dream?  Nah, I’m naked…and sore as hell…then again it still could have been a dream with physical aspects…

 

I walked into the bathroom to take a shower and I looked up into the mirror, cause I knew I’d have to face myself sooner or later…I couldn’t believe I had actually had sex with a man I had barely meet not more then 3 months ago…that wasn’t me…but in a way it was…cause I slept with my ex-husband 2 weeks after we had met…I guess my resistance kind of sucked when it came to guys who made me weak in the knees…

 

As I looked at the mirror, there was a piece of the hotel paper taped to the mirror…I pulled it off and it said:

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Lori,

 

I realize I may have pushed things to far last night...maybe we shouldn’t have done what we did, I’m not saying I regret it, because it was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever experienced with a woman…a beautiful woman at that…but I know you giving me the silent treatment, was because I hurt your feelings…and I thought that by showing you what my feeling were towards you, that it would help ease your pain…but I should of realized last night that I can’t just fix any type of pain, just by making love to you and making you feel the feelings I have for you…I don’t know if I love you…I haven’t known you that long…

 

I do have to admit, I’ve never been this attracted to anyone else this fast as I am to you right now…I know the first couple of weeks, I was kind of a monster…but as soon as we started talking and I would see you laugh and smile the more my attraction grew for you…I know I should have been there this morning when you woke up…but I didn’t know if you would of wanted me there or not, since you’ve been giving me the silent treatment for the last couple of weeks, which I fully deserved…I won’t bother you anymore, I promise…If you want to come talk to me you’re more then welcome…and if you reciprocate my feelings, even the slightest…then I guess I have a shot to show you I’m not really the tyrant I play on camera…

 

I know I shouldn’t of let my anger get that high…and I should have never jumped off the script…I don’t know what came over me that night…I guess with all the feelings I had for you, and not knowing how to tell you or show you exactly how I felt for you and after what you had said to me…it just kind of built…even though I had you, ready to power bomb you…I don’t think I could of really gone through with it…I’m glad you countered it and knocked me out…cause that really woke me up…I actually did a lot of thinking…about myself…about you…about us…and maybe having a future together…I don’t know what you would think about it…but when you’re ready to talk you know where to find me…until then I’ll have to take the silent treatment like a man and hate it every step of the way.

 

Paul

While I was taking a shower I decided to go and visit my Nana in Austin, Texas…I called Vince and let him know I was taking the rest of the week off…he said it was fine, he would just see me at the next Monday Night Raw…and said if I needed anymore time to call and let him know…I thanked him and we said our good-byes…and I packed up all my stuff and took off in one of the company limos…that Vince had told to take me to the airport…I called ahead and had a ticket to Texas waiting for me…when I got there…I went to pay for the ticket, but it had already been paid…there was a yellow post it note stuck on top…it said:

 

Enjoy your week off this trip is on me…

~Vince

 

I smiled and made a mental note to call Vince later and thank him…

 

I jumped on the plane and took off

 

Chapter 9

 

When I got to Austin…I got a rental car and drove to my Nanas…I walked up the huge front porch, which used to look bigger when I was younger…I knocked on the door, and could smell the food being cooked in the kitchen, sliding through the screen door and hitting me in the face…

 

When I got my senses back, I heard the all too familiar comforting voice of my Nana say, “Lori Jean is that you?”  I smiled and said, “Yea, ma’am…”  She unlocked the screen door and I walked in but not before we hugged so tight…Nana said, “Honey, every time I see you…you get more beautiful…now let me have a look at you.”  She held me at arms length and said, “Yup, more beautiful…”  I smiled and as she re-locked the screen door, she wrapped her arm around my waist and we walked into the kitchen…she said, “You’re just in time…dinner is ready…want some chicken and tatoes?”  I smiled and said, “No, I’m not very hungry…I just got a week off and decided since, I had seen you in 6 months it was time for a visit…” 

 

As Nana ate dinner we talked about everything under the sun…she said, “How’s that dopey cousin of yours doing…how’s Mark?”  I laughed and said, “He’s fine…”  She said, “And that pretty girlfriend of his?”  I said, “Great..”  As she was cleaning she said, “What about you?”  I said, “I’m fine..”  She said, “Now, Girl don’t you lie to me…I’m still your grandmother…and I know when something’s wrong…So who have you fallen in love with?”  I perked up and said, “Nana…I didn’t say I was in love…”  She said, “You didn’t have to…You had the same look when you fell in love with what’s his name Bryan…and wanted to marry him at 16…so believe me, you don’t have to tell me…I know…” 

 

I sighed heavy and said, “You’ve been watching the show every Monday right?”  Nana said, “Of course, I wouldn’t miss the chance to see my two grand babies live out their dreams of being professional wrestlers.”  I said, “Did you see the episode a couple of weeks ago with  my counter parts, Paul and Shawn…”  She said, “Now they are Triple H and The Heartbreak Kid right?”  I nodded and smiled…she said, “You mean, where that big brut Cerebral Assassin was going to power bomb you…until you knocked him out on his ass..”  I said, “Yea…That wasn’t scripted to happen…”  She said, “I know that too…I could tell by the fear in your eyes…it was almost as if you was looking down at Bryan again…wasn’t it?”  I had tears slowly sliding down my cheeks…and nodded yes…She walked over and sat across from me…she said, “Its him, isn’t it?  You’re in love with Paul…” 

 

I started to sob when I nodded my head yes again…

 

She jumped up and put a pot of water on to make me some tea…and then came over and sat next to me…she put her arm around me…and I laid my head on the table and cried…She said, “Honey, things happen…you couldn’t have known you was going to fall in love with him…and I’m sure, he’s sorry…”  I sat up wiping my eyes and said, “He is sorry…I’ve been giving him the silent treatment since it happened…”  She looked at me and said, “Well damn…rip the boys heart out why don’t you…you know that there is no one that can ignore someone like you can..”  I giggled a little and calmed down and said, “There’s more…”  She said, “I already know…you love him…so you guys made love to each other…” 

 

I looked at her totally astonished and said, “How do you know these things?”  She said, “Because it’s you…you tend to wear you’re heart on your sleeve…you’ve got the biggest heart then anyone I know…and you just tend to show family more then anyone…so does he love you?”  I said, “He said, he doesn’t know…he just said he’s never had feelings for someone like that as fast as he did for me…Oh Nana…I really like him and want to tell him everything…but I’m afraid to…”  She said, “Lori, if you really love him…tell him exactly how you feel…and if he loves you as much then you can wait to tell him everything else, until you feel comfortable enough to tell him.”

 

Chapter 10

 

I cried a little more and Nana made me some hot tea…We talked a little more and I enjoyed my week with her…

 

Paul on the other hand was about to go completely crazy, cause he thought he had scared me off…Mark kept explaining to him it was impossible to scare me off...and that I had just gone to our grand mothers for a while…and I’d be back by the next Monday Night Raw.

 

At the next Monday Night Raw…I was walking down the hallway in the back of the arena…when I saw Paul standing with his back to me and talking to Shawn…who by now, knew exactly how Paul felt about me…I started to just walk by and not say anything…but I decided what Nana said had been right…

 

I walked over and tapped Paul on the shoulder and he turned to look who it was his eyes shot open wide and said, “Lori?  You’re back?”  I smiled and said, “Yes.”  Shawn started to say something when I said, “Can you excuse me for just one minute…” 

 

I turned to Paul and stood on my tiptoes and slowly kissed his lips…Paul wasn’t really sure what was going on, but anytime a female was going to kiss him…he wasn’t about to protest it…he kissed me back and we just stood there for a good 10 minutes kissing in the hallway…

 

Needless to say after that kiss, we started spending an obscene amount of time together…we started dating…and decided that going slow was an excellent idea…We spent so much time together it was unbelievable…Paul wasn’t just ready yet on telling me he loved me…and I knew I wasn’t ready to say it either…so we kept things simple between us…movies, sharing hotel rooms…sharing dressing rooms…going to dinner after shows…getting kisses when Either one of us could really use them…

 

We loved our mornings together…we would lay in bed and just talk about a few things…and just really touch each other…and place kisses all over each others bodies…I still hadn’t told Paul about me having an ex-husband…or the broken back…with as many time as he’d seen me naked, he’d never had the opportunity to see my back…the scar didn’t stick out like a sore thumb, but it was there…I just wasn’t ready to tell him much about my past…I didn’t mind talking about me, nana, Mark…or my parents…but anything about me being married and extremely hurt…wasn’t an option to discuss.

 

Chapter 11

 

After me and Paul had been together for a year…Paul was sitting back in his dressing room with Mark, Trish, Devon, Shawn and Shawn’s recently new girlfriend Kelly watching my match with April McMahon…Shane McMahon (McMahon) wife…we were both 5’10” so it was easy for us to get carried away with the wrestling…but we always had so much fun trying not to break character and crack up laughing at the other…

 

April went to cover me and she was laying on top of me, and I whispered, “You’re smashing my boobs…”  April said, “I knew it…I am getting fatter…”  I was so trying not to laugh and said, “Oh sure, you weight 10 lbs less then me…wanna tell me where all this supposed weight is hiding that you seem to be gaining?”  We were rolling around the ring and April said, “Yea, my ass and thighs seem to feel like their getting bigger..”  I said, “Sure, considering you have the ass of a butterfly…now you wanna see a big ass, you should look at my ass, it’s that lump that’s 3 feet below my head…” 

 

April said, “What?  Unless Paul is needing a crane to pick your ass up, it’s not even close to as fat as mine is…I think Shane pulled a muscle in his fingers the other day, when he tried to grab all of my ass with both hands…”  I said, “Are you sure it was that, or maybe he just grabbed to hard…with a little more of an intense grabbing then expected.” 

 

April said, “I’m sure I don’t know…you would think that with all that muscle, some would spread to this hands and fingers…” 

 

I said, “Paul’s got some in his hands and fingers…oh yea…power to the hands…”

 

Victoria was our new female Resident psycho wrestler…she didn’t care if she was scripted or not, she did as she wanted…she ran out and literally knocked out April by smashing her in the head with a metal chair and the she hit me in the back with the chair, which was a no-no because of my wrestling contract stipulations…then she picked me up and was about to give me a back breaker on a opened metal chair…when I wrapped my leg around her head and squeezed my muscles around her throat as hard as I could and she went down like the sack of shit she really was…and since she had a hold of me, my body came down on top of hers…

 

I rolled off Victoria’s limp body, and laid on my side…the pain was just coursing through my spine…There wasn’t anything wrong physically, but it just hurt like a…what’s a good word…oh I know…It hurt like a MOTHER FUCKER!  There was a reason those stipulations were put into my contract…it was so I wouldn’t end up paralyzed. 

 

Mark jumped up and said, “I’ll kill that psycho bitch!!”  Paul thought it was scripted but then Mark told him it wasn’t…They all had to stand by the curtain…cause the stage manager wasn’t letting anyone out there, he didn’t want them in the way…April came back first and Shane ran over to her…she had a huge cute on the top of her head and was gushing bloody, Shane went with her to the hospital…Victoria was wheeled back and immediately taken to the medical room…she wasn’t hurt, just knocked out…

 

Paul was watching the monitor by the curtain…and saw I was having a really hard time moving around…I got up and crawled on my hands and knees across the ring and slid under the bottom rope, and two referees grabbed my arms and helped me walk to the back…Paul could see the tears sliding down my cheeks…and knew it was bad.

 

Paul went with me to the same hospital April was at…and they did an MRI on my back…to make sure the rods hadn’t been bent or damaged…Paul didn’t know what the MRI was for, but he didn’t care…he just wanted to make sure I was okay…

 

Chapter 12

 

After the MRI, I was sitting in the carpeted waiting room, for the doctor to get the pictures transfer to film…I was with Paul, Mark, Devon, and Trish…She had me laying on the floor on my stomach…and she was sitting on my ass, rubbing up and down my spine…trying to get the pain to subside…Trish had some good talent with giving massages to people who were hurt…

 

I had my hand on the top of Paul’s boot and would feel him wiggling his toes around…I ran my hand up his pant leg and touched his calve…and said, “It’s just a precautionary…It’s just going to be bruised for a while…”  Paul looked down and said, “How can you be so sure…it hurts you an awful lot for it to just be bruised…”  I looked at Mark and we exchanged glances and looks repeatedly almost as if having a full conversation with absolutely no words.

 

Shawn and Kelly decided on turning in early…oh to be new lovers…

 

Mark said, “By the way, Chickeys, have you been to see Dr. Andrews for your yearly check up?”  I said, “No, I have an appointment next week…so I’ll miss Raw cause I’ll be in New York for Monday and Tuesday…”  Mark said, “Okay..”  Paul knew that already, but he didn’t know why…

 

When the doctor called me, I went to the office and Paul followed me and decided to stay outside incase I needed him for anything…but gave me my privacy, by staying in the hall…The door was cracked open a little and he could see the MRI images and the doctor was pointing to the rods…and said, “It’s just bruised, take a couple of weeks off and it should be better…See, they are perfectly fine…all 4 metal rods are still in place, they didn’t move, shift, or get damaged…and there are no permanent bends in them…even though they are already bendable…and the whole thing is still stable…Lori it looks great, it looks like it did when it was pus in 5 years ago…”  I smiled and said, “Thanks doc..” 

 

I was about to walk out the door, when he said, “You want anything for the pain?”  I shock my head no and said, “Nah…Its just pain…Pain is just a good thing to let me know I’m not dead.”  Paul had over her the whole conversation…and when the doctor lifted my shirt in the back to examine my back, Paul saw the scar…and just wanted to know everything…When I walked out, Paul said, “Okay, so was it my imagination or did I see a 8 inch scar along your spine…”

 

I looked at the ground and said, “It’s 12 inches…and yes you saw it…but I really don’t want to talk about it…I promise Paul when I’m ready to tell anyone, you’ll be the first to know…I promise…”  Paul agreed to drop it…for the time being…cause he wanted me to just relax and let myself recover for a couple of weeks…he knew what ever I was hiding, it was something that was of an emotional nature…and he didn’t want me getting upset again…

 

So for two weeks, I relaxed…and stayed away from the ring…but still exercised and went to the gym with Paul and everyone…Paul wouldn’t let me do any strenuous lifting, but just enough to give all my muscles a small workout…After the two weeks were up…I was ready for some ring action…And since I had my yearly check-up with Dr. Andrews…everything was good…so Vince gave me and April another match together…we could barely get through the match without laughing our asses off…We walked to the back…as soon as we got behind the curtain…we cracked up laughing…and Paul and Shane were just looking at us like we were crazy…As April and Shane went back to his dressing room she said, “See ya later, big boobs…”  I said, “Later, fat ass.” 

 

I stopped in front of Paul…and he said, “What was that all about?”  I said, “Just an inside joke between us…”  Paul looked down and said, “I was hoping so, cause I don’t remember your boobs being that big…”  I smacked his arm and said, “They aren’t…it’s just a joke with me and her…”  I pushed my lips out and Paul leaned down and kissed them softly…he started to pull away when I vibrated my lips against his…He looked at me and said, “Some one is awful playful tonight…”  I said, “Yea…live with it…”

 

Paul had his hands on his hips and said, “I think you’re getting a little bit to big for your britches…and threw me over his shoulder and carried me back to his dressing room, laughing my ass off…

 

Chapter 13

 

After a few months of Paul trying to ask me questions about the scar up the middle of my back and me avoiding every single question…he finally got tired and asking, and decided to do a little snooping…he got a hold of my medical files from the wrestling tours road doctor…

 

The doctor didn’t give them to Paul…

 

They were in a filing cabinet, which Paul waited until the doc left the room, and he snatched my folder…he read through it, seeing the pictures of the surgery, and the metal rods after they had been placed in, and then 2 years later, when the doctor took pictures to see how well the scar was started to disappear…

 

Paul decided to give Dr. Andrews a visit in New York…when he walked in, he just told Dr. Andrews he wanted to know everything…Dr. Andrews wasn’t about to deny a man of Paul’s height and weight, any information he knew about me…the one mistake the doctor made was telling Paul I was married…the doctor was un away that I had finally gotten my divorce…and failed to mention I was supposed to be getting one, when he had me as his patient. 

 

Needless to say, Paul was beyond pissed off…I don’t know what kept him from blowing his top before he got back to face me about all of this…but he held it all inside…

 

I was sitting back stage at the next arena…Mar had told me he had to fly home to take care of some business at his ranch in Houston Connecticut…big lie…especially when he was in New York…I was in fact standing talking with Shawn and Kelly…I said, “So Kelly…are you guys coming to Paul’s place over the 3 week break?”  Kelly said, “Oh, I don’t know…Is it okay with everyone?”  I said, “You’re dating the kid here right?” 

 

She smiled as Shawn squeezed her closer to him and said, “Yea, I am…”  I said, “Well he’s your ticket…Just come you’ll have a great time…”  I saw Paul walking down the hallway, and he came right to me…he didn’t even stop to say hi…he grabbed my arm and drug me down the hall, saying, “Sorry, Lori has to go…she’s got to talk with me…right now!”

 

He drug me all the way down to his dressing room….Shawn looked at Kelly and said, “Oh this can’t be good…I better go find Mark and Devon…”  The twosome took off to find my cousin and his side kick…When we got to Paul’s dressing room, he pulled me in and slammed the door shut, locking it behind him…threw is bag on the sofa and his shades across the room…then walked up and got in my face and I said, “Well, hello to you too babe.”

 

Paul said, “Do I looked like I’m in any kind of mood to be fucked with?  Cause I have to tell you…after all the shit I found out…if I were you…I’d keep my mouth shut…”  I said, “Damn…you sound like my ex…”  I sopped myself before I finished, and said, “Never mind.”  And averted my eyes to the floor…Paul said, “You’re what?  You’re husband…huh?? Why the fuck didn’t you tell me you was married Lori…”  I said, “It didn’t come up…” 

 

Paul said, “You mean to tell me for the last 12 months that we’ve been fucking, you couldn’t of thought some way to just tell me you were married…”  I looked at him…and couldn’t believe he said that…I said, “Paul…my past is my past…it has nothing to do with us right now…that was a long ass time ago…at least for me it was…”  Paul said, “I thought I had a right to know if my girlfriend was already married…so how many other guys have you been fucking since you’ve been married?” 

 

Chapter 14

 

I said, “Paul…I’m not married…”  Before I could finish, Paul said, “BULLSHIT! You’re Dr. Andrews told me everything…surprise I wasn’t in Connecticut, I was in New York, checking up on your ass…I got tired of you avoiding my questions…”  I said, “You checked up on me?…what do you mean you checked up on me?  Just exactly what part of when I am ready to talk you’ll be the first to know…didn’t you understand?”  Paul said, “Don’t talk to me as if I’m a child, I’m a 30 year old man, dating a 23 year old woman…I wouldn’t of had to sneak around if you would of just told me the truth…and not tried to hide it…” 

 

I said, “What part of this story sounds like it would be fun?  Me losing both my parents a year apart, just after I turned 16…falling in love with a god damn monster...and getting married at 16…having the first 6 months be nothing but blissful heaven…and every second after that nothing but hell…I got my ass beat on a weekly basis…when I finally was shown that I didn’t need a brutally violent husband to not feel lonely…I filed for a divorce…”

 

I could feel myself being mad but sad also…I continued, “Bryan didn’t like that, so he threw me down 3 flights of concrete steps, breaking my back in half on the way down…and leaving me there, while he went out with his ‘bros’…going through 1 complete year of physical therapy, and watching a 12inch scar slowly heal and hopefully disappear…not to mention my asshole ex-husband not wanting to give me a divorce and was finally forced to sign the damn papers…what part of that do you think I would of loved just absolutely telling you?  Huh?…try none of it…because I hated every single second of pain in my life for those 4 years…the only time I have truly been happy is, being able to wrestle…and being with you Paul…”

 

Paul said, “I just wish you would have cared and trusted me enough to tell me…”  I said, “It was never about trust…because I trust you with my life…and it was certainly never about me not caring about you…because I love you…”  Paul said, “So then why didn’t you tell me?  I mean this was some pretty serious shit…” 

 

I said, “Because I wanted to feel completely comfortable in my own skin for just once in my life before I ran off telling anyone what my past was like…I haven’t been truly comfortable being me in a long damn time…I feel stabilized when I’m around you…when you touch my skin, it’s almost as if you become my blood…cause I swear I can feel you moving through my veins and arteries…through out my whole body…I’ve never in my life been touched by a man and had that reaction before as I do when you touch me…and it’s every time…not just the first time you touched me…but every single time…I can’t explain it…and I certainly can’t ignore it…it’s almost as if you become part of me…”

 

Paul looked at me and said, “I just wish you would of told me…you really disappoint me…I thought we didn’t have any secrets between us…I mean…I let you in to my heart…some place where not a lot of people have been…you were one of the very few who got to me…but not anymore…that’s for damn sure…I really think we shouldn’t see each other anymore…I think It’s for the best…” 

 

I said, “Paul…don’t do this…don’t make me out to be the bad person here…I told you I would tell you…whose the one who didn’t trust who…you’re the one who lied to me about going home…when you went to New York to talk to my doctor…”  Paul said, “You should have told me…then I wouldn’t have had to do that.” 

 

I started to walk away when I said, “Oh yea that’s right…you didn’t have a choice to become an asshole…I forgot…I held a gun to your head and told you to be a nosey impatient jerk…who sneaks around…”  Paul grabbed my arm and pulled me back towards him and started to say something when I jerked away and said, “Don’t you touch me…you lost the right about 5 seconds ago…”  Paul looked in my eyes and saw the tears building up…

 

I said, “I hate you…Why did you let me fall in love with you…”  I blinked and tears slid down my cheeks…and I walked away…Paul couldn’t believe I just told him I hated him…

 

Chapter 15

 

Mark found me sitting in the girls dressing room…I was talking with Trish about what had happened…Mark said, “Lori, what happened?”  Trish said, “Get out…I’ll explain later..”  Mark started to object, when Trish swatted him on the ass and shooed him out the door…Then she came back over and we started talking again…Mark saw Paul walking down the hall and went and stood in front of him and said, “Levesque, what did you do to my cousin?” 

 

Paul looked down at my dopey cousin and said, “I didn’t do anything to her that she didn’t do to herself..”  Mark said, “Meaning?”  Paul said, “I went snooping on Lori…how could you know she was married and not tell me…and that she has a broken back…”  Mark said, “Probably because, she got divorced…and her back has been fixed…what does that have to do with anything?”  Paul said, “I just wish she would of put a little more faith into my love for her to tell me things that serious, instead of hiding them like a 5 year old.”

 

Mark said, “Paul…I’m gonna say this one time to you…because I think at times you can be kind of blind to things around you…but I’m telling you right now, if you let something that trivial come between you and Chickeys…then you never deserved to have her heart to begin with…a lot of people have a past…it’s just that others have a problem talking about their past like Chickeys does…she doesn’t like talking about hers, cause it still hurts her...even though it’s been 5 years…”

 

Mark sighed and continued, “She still has nightmares…she still hurts…she even still feels the pain in her back…when it gets cold, she gets shoot pains down her spine…why do you think she wears the electrodes…it keeps the pain at a minimal…but it doesn’t get rid of it all together…Paul…Chickeys loves you…you’re the first guy she’s loved since Bryan…and you’re the first since him, to treat her like a lady…in other words…you’re the first all together…I’ve tried setting her up on blind dates before…but it never works…you’re the first guys she’s even been a little interested in, let alone fallen in love with…honestly you don’t have a clue what you did to her…and what you’re doing to her…”

 

I was ready to go back to the hotel…I walked out of the dressing room…and Paul and Mark were standing there…They both looked at me and I said, “What?  Did I grow three heads or something?” 

 

Mark looked at the ground…and Paul looked in my eyes…and I just put my jacket on and walked away…I went back to the hotel to Paul’s room and got all my stuff out and went and got a room of my own…I took a nice warm shower…I cried a little…and then I laid in bed and stared at the ceiling…I wanted to just stay in bed forever…but I knew my dopey ass cousin wouldn’t allow it…

 

It just so happens that the room the hotel gave me was an adjoined room with Paul on one side and Mark and Trish on the other…It was probably around 3am…when both rooms on the sides of me were woken up in a harsh manner…it just happened to be from a blood curdling, hair standing on end…dead raising scream…Mark sat straight up in bed and said, “That sounded like Chickeys…Isn’t she in the room next to us?” 

 

Trish had jumped out of bed and was already headed to the adjoining room door…and threw it open…I was sitting in the middle of the bed, with the covers thrown all over the bed and room…and I was curled into a sitting ball with my knees into my chest, and my head practically buried between my knees…like I was trying to hide…

 

Paul kicked in the other door…and only had on jeans…and nothing else…and said, “What the hell is going on?”  Trish was over slowly approaching the bed, and was trying to talk with me…She said, “Lori…Lori girl…c’mon wake up…it’s just me and you.”  Mark saw Paul and said, “Welcome to Lori’s nightmare…what you don’t see when you’re around…” 

 

My head shot up like I had been stuck in the ass with a bolt of lightning…and I said, “Stay away from me…don’t come near me…I mean it…If Bryan sees you in here…he’ll flip…he’ll kill me, I swear it…”  Paul said, “Lori, calm down…”  I looked at him and then at Mark and said, “Mark, you know I can’t have guys in my apt…if Bryan finds out I’m dead…you have to get him out of here NOW!”  Mark said, “Lori…calm down…you’re not with Bryan anymore…remember you divorced him 3 years ago…everything is okay…I promise…Paul would never hurt you…you know that.”

 

I jumped to my feet and stepped off the bed and sat in the corner on the other side of the bed furthest from the threesome and rolled into a ball again…my hair was hanging in my face, and my whole body was shaking…I would peek between the strands of my hair every once in a while…to see if they were still there…but I never moved…

 

Paul said, “I’ll see what I can do…Go ahead and go back to bed…I’ll handle her…”  Mark squinted at Paul, to make sure he was telling the truth…Paul said, “I promise, I won’t hurt her.”  Trish and Mark left back to their room and laid in each others arms…trying to calm down enough to fall asleep again…

 

Paul came over and sat on his knees in front of me…and touched my hand…I immediately felt this warm surge run up my arm and started going through my veins…and I started calming…Paul said, “Lori…sweetie are you okay…what happened?”  I looked up as I moved my hair and said, “Paul?”  He said, “Yea, sweetie, it’s me…I’m here…” 

 

I jumped to me knees and threw my arms around his neck…and I was still shaking all over….Paul held on to me and I cried and cried…He was rubbing my back trying to reassure me it was all a dream and that I was okay…Paul picked me up in his arms and then rolled back into a squat still holding me…and stood up…I was holding on to him for deal life…

 

Paul walked back with me to his room…where he calmed me and laid me in his bed, while he sat on the floor next to the bed watching me sleep…making sure I wouldn’t have another nightmare…I fell asleep fast…and so did Paul…

 

Chapter 16

 

I woke up the next morning fluttering my open…trying to figure out where I was…I was totally disoriented…I looked over and saw Paul sleeping on the floor next to my bed…wait a minute…this is my room…I looked over and saw his bag on the table and finally realized I’m in his room but why?

 

I moved around a little and got up quietly and I went in and took a shower…I noticed he’d moved all my things into his room…I finished my shower and slipped on a Black cargo skirt, a red tank top and matched cardigan and black 2½ in. heeled, knee-high boots…I dried my hair and as I was walking across the hotel room floor, I suddenly remembered the nightmare and Paul coming in to help me…I combed my hair out and walked over to where Paul was sitting…

 

He was still asleep.  I noticed Paul was pitching a tent in his pants and couldn’t help but giggle cause I suddenly felt like going camping.  I walked over and squatted down in front of him and reached out and brushed my index finger tip across his lower lip and traced it up and over his top lip.  I leaned down and kissed his lips so softly…

 

I must’ve woken Paul up cause his hands came up and cupped my face and he deepened the kiss…I felt his tongue brush into my mouth as he inspected every space in my mouth…We finally broke the kiss and I stood up and went to check my e-mail as Paul got up, stretched and went and took a shower…

 

Well apparently the shower didn’t help his morning wood…he walked out of the bathroom in nothing but a towel…with no warning at all he came up behind me and Paul turned me around and sat me on the dresser again…

 

Paul came up and stood between my legs…and I said, “Just a suggestion but you should get rid of the towel.”  Paul pulled the towel off and threw it on the bed and said, “What a great idea baby…You know what an even better idea is?”  I said, “What?”  Paul said, “This.”  And grabbed my thighs and pulled my closer to the edge of the dresser and I could feel the heat radiating off of his erection through the crotch of my panties…his fingers slid down my panty cover mound and I felt him pull my panties to the side and he slid his erection into my wet and willing center.

 

I held on for dear life…this was definitely going to be some ride…He started out with slow thrusts…but me biting on his ear and begging for him to go faster was totally his undoing as he started picking up the pace…faster and harder he slammed into my body…I almost couldn’t stand it…I was almost about to go over the edge…I was practically panting like a dog in heat…he literally slamming into me and waking up every sense and nerve ending in my body he was taking my breath away…

 

He finally kissing on my neck and knew if he got to close to that little spot on the side of my neck I was going to be a goner…well he found it and I yelled out as my orgasm rushed through my body so fast I thought I was going to pass out…No long after me Paul’s orgasm raked him over the coals also…and his seed spilled deep inside of me…

 

Paul stumbled back and fell back sprawled out on the bed…his erection was slowly going under…I was trying to catch my breath finally…and as I hopped off the dresser I fixed my panties and pulled my dress back down.  I walked over and leaned down and kissed Paul’s little bald head and said, “Loved the ride…” 

 

I went to walk away and Paul grabbed my hand and pulled me back down on the bed next to him and kissed me deep and passionately…he broke the kiss and said, “Thanks for playing the game…”    I giggled a little and then I grabbed the towel and wiped the sweat on Paul’s forehead and said, “I love you…”  Paul smiled and said, “I love you too baby…I’m really glad Mark brought me back to my senses.”  I said, “Mark did…my cousin?”  Paul said, “Yea…he talked to me…and I realized, I missed having you in my corner…and I’ve missed that oh so familiar smell of yours on my pillows…I want us back…I want you back.” 

 

I smiled and said, “You’ve always had me…We need to get going…we’re supposed to meet Shawn and Kelly in the lobby so we can get to the next town…Shawn said he’d go ahead and drive…”  Paul said, “Okay…sounds good.”  So as I finished getting our stuff packed and taken down to Shawn’s Ford Explorer rental…while Paul got dressed.

 

We walked down to the lobby and I actually handed my purse to Paul and asked him to hold it for me, while I signed out of the room.  Shawn and Kelly walked up to Paul and Kelly said, “So, Paul…nice purse honey…do you have shoes that go with it?”  Paul laughed and said, “Yea…yea…Bite me.”  Shawn laughed and swatted Kelly on the ass and said, “You saucy little vixen you…you just wait until I can get a hold of you later…”  Kelly smiled and said, “Oh yea…you wasn’t saying that last night…beggin’ and shit…” 

 

I walked over and said, “Did I just hear her say the Heartbreak Kid was begging?” 

 

Shawn blushed for like a split second and said, “I am never above begging…especially when it comes to something that she’s got that I want…it’s bad enough that we went out to dinner last night…she grabbed my hand and put it on the inside of her thigh…and as I worked my way up…I came to the conclusion that she wasn’t even wearing any panties under her dress…then she made me wait through a 3 hour movie and a long ass slow dance, where she kept rubbing up against my body…making me insane.”

 

I looked at Kelly and said, “Shame on you girl.”  She said, “He is forever teasing the shit right out of me…I figured it was his turn to feel the pain…”  I said, “Ouch…good girl.”  Paul handed me my purse and said, “Are we ready?”  Shawn said, “Yup, let’s hit it.”  We walked out to the hotel parking lot and got in Shawn’s Explorer rental…and I sat in the back seat with Paul…and we took off…

 

Chapter 17

 

Shawn and Kelly were talking up front about wedding plans…since they had finally decided they wanted to get married…Paul looked over at me and I smiled and said, “What?”  Paul said, “Nothing…C’mere baby…”  I slid over and Paul wrapped me in his arms…and was slowly assaulting my neck with his lips and tongue…

 

I giggled and said, “You keep doing that and we’ll never make it to the next town.”  Paul said, “Oh…you read my mind.”  I smacked his hand as it started sliding up my thigh…Paul’s chest rumbled low with laughter…

 

Shawn said, “Hey…you two okay back there?”  I said, “I’m fine…I don’t know about Paulie though…he’s trying to get fresh with me…and I’m trying to be an innocent girl…”  Shawn said, “You know Paul…if you’d just fuck the shit out her…she would lose that sassy streak she’s got.” 

 

Kelly piped in and said, “What makes you think that would work?  You fuck the shit out of me nearly every night and I still have my sassy streak…”

 

Shawn said, “You’ve calmed down a little.”  Kelly reached her hand over and ran her finger tips over Shawn’s growing erection…Shawn growled and said, “Watch it woman…you’re gonna make me wreck.” 

 

Kelly giggled and said, “Maybe you should just stop and get it over with…you know you want me…” 

 

Shawn said, “We’ve got a schedule to keep…besides…I don’t think Paul and Lori are interested in stopping at some rest area just so me and you can go screw on a picnic table.” 

 

Kelly looked in the backseat and saw me and Paul kissing and hands were roaming all over…and Kelly said, “I wouldn’t be so sure…”  Shawn looked in back and then said, “Oh Fuck the schedule.”  Kelly said, “No honey…Fuck me…Forget the schedule..” 

 

Shawn found the rest area…good thing no one was there…the place looked like it hadn’t been used in years…Shawn stopped rolled down the windows so it wouldn’t get to hot for us…and then threw Kelly over his shoulder and ran over into the trees and found a nice comfortable picnic table…

 

Shawn sat her down and said, “Now, do we want this fast, or take our time?” 

 

Kelly took his hand and slid it up her skirt like the night before…HA…No panties again…and he also took note of how wet she already was…

 

Shawn shook his finger at her and said, “You naughty thing…If I would of know I had a panty free pussy sitting next to me the whole time…I would have had my fingers in there and been up to my elbows in pussy since we left the hotel…Next time gimmie some type of warning.” 

 

Kelly giggled as Shawn undid his jeans and freed his erection…and slowly laid Kelly back against the table, he carefully spread her legs and then slowly slid his painfully hard erection into her soaking wet center…

 

Kelly let out a deep moan of approval…Shawn started thrusting in and out of her and their senses were going completely wild..

 

Chapter 18

 

Meanwhile, back in the vehicle…I moved around, hiked up my skirt and Paul took my panties off and then sat me straddled on his lap…as I was sliding down I felt his erection slide into me…I unbutton the top of my dress and Paul was caressing my breasts and nipples and he said, “C’mon baby ride me.” 

 

I bite my bottom lip and slowly started sliding up and down on his erection…I was holding onto his shoulders…and he was holding onto my nipples…

 

Paul could feel his orgasm slowly approaching, he slid his hand between our bodies and started massaging my clit with his finger, I arched my back and pushed my breast into his chest…his hands slid back and grabbed onto my ass and was helping me work my hips faster…

 

Paul kissed my ear and said, “C’mon baby…I wanna feel you cum on me…” 

 

That was pretty much my undoing…My orgasm ripped through me, making me cum more then I ever had before…and as soon as Paul felt my cum on him he growled out his release as his cum ripped deep through my insides.

 

Back over at the picnic tables…It was Kelly’s turn to beg… “Mmm…God…Make me cum for you Shawn…please…oh god…I wanna cum for you so bad baby…” 

 

Shawn said, “Now who’s the one begging?” 

 

Kelly grabbed his face in her hands and said, “Shawn…Shut up and fuck me until I cum for you.”  Shawn wasn’t about to let her down…he started thrusting as hard and as fast as his hips would let him move…after about 5 more thrusts Kelly started moaning out her release…

 

“Oh God…Mmmmmmmmmmm Shawn” 

 

Shawn thrusted two more times before he pushed himself all the way in her and growled like an animal and emptied himself deep in her core…

 

The couples had all fixed themselves and were back on the road 45 minutes later…Shawn said, “We’ll definitely have to make more stops at the rest areas…I’d hate to miss those wonderful scenes…” 

 

All four of us just cracked up laughing…that was definitely a day we’d never forget…Shawn called Vince and told him we got lost on the way…and then proceeded to stop at every rest area for a little one on one time…

 

We ended up making it to the arena about 25 minutes before Raw started.  We were running around back stage trying to get everything put together and dressed to be ready for the matches and what not tonight.

 

I ran into Mark and Trish…and Trish said, “Well you are glowing girl…what happened to you?”  I said, “Paul and I made up.”  Mark quirked an eye brow and said, “So you guys are ok?”  I smiled, kissed his check and said, “Fabulous Cuz…I gotta go.”  I took off down the hallway. 

 

The night went off without a hitch and I found myself falling asleep in the arms of the man I loved.

 

Chapter 19

 

A few months later at a house show, I was standing in the back watching Paul get pushed and shoved around in the ring by Mark Callaway, or also know as Undertaker.  Paul was trying to be his big bad game self…but was supposed to get the crap kicked out of him for being a jerk.

 

When the match was finished…Paul came back behind the curtain and came right to me…I touched his cheek and said, “Awww baby…did you get thrown around for a while?”  Paul smirked and said, “The Game doesn’t get thrown...the Game does the throwing.”  I said, “Small kiss…then I’ll get to your boo-boos later.”  Paul kissed my lips lightly and we walked down to his dressing room.

 

Paul went ahead and took a shower pretty fast and came out in jeans, black steel toes boots, and a while and red Triple H t-shirt on…plus pulled his hair back into a low tail at the base of his head.  I had to admit…he could really make me weak in the knees.

 

When we walked out the back door, his red hummer was sitting there running…and he opened the door and said, “C’mon I got something special planned…”  I smiled and said, “Mr. Levesque…what do you have up your sleeve?” 

 

Paul pulled me closed and cupped my butt and said, “You let me worry about that baby…now get in.”  I saluted him and said, “Yes Sir.”  He kissed me on last time as I took his offered hand and climbed into the monster of a SUV…

 

I watched as Paul threw his bag in the back and got in the drivers side…I was about to snap my seatbelt on, when Paul leaned over and grabbed my belt loop and pulled me across the long seat to where I was sitting next to him…I snapped the middle seat belt on me, as Paul snapped his on too.  And we pulled out of the parking lot…

 

Paul wrapped his arm around me as we hit the freeway…I snuggled closer to his chest and said, “So are you gonna tell me what’s going on?”  Paul smirked and said, “Nope…suffer…Actually one little part…were going to my house in New Hampshire.”  I could smell his cologne…I ended up laying down in the front seat with my head next to Paul’s leg.

 

In the morning we got to Paul’s house…and he stroked my cheek to wake me up…I said, “Why did you drive all night?”  Paul said, “I didn’t…I stopped for a few hours and slept on the side of the road with you.”  I said, “Okay good.”  We walked inside as Paul pulled our bags in…Paul showed me around the house…it was huge...but very beautiful.

 

After a little breakfast and a big tour of the grounds and what not…Paul locked up the house and said, “Let’s go take a nap.”  I smiled and said, “What a fabulous idea.”  Paul untucked his shirt and let it hang out as he walked up the stairs I grabbed onto his t-shirt tail and walked up with him.

 

We laid across the bed and fell asleep in each others arms.

 

When we woke up it was actually the morning of the next day…we had to have been so tired we didn’t realize it.  We got dressed and as I made my way to the bottom of the steps to the foyer…Paul met me at the bottom…and grabbed my hand and said, “I want you to come with me…I have something planned for you.”  I smiled and said, “Okay.”  Paul turned me around to where my back was to him, and he tied a black silk scarf around my eyes as a blind fold and then pulled me back against his body and nuzzled my neck and said, “Do you trust me baby?”  I said, “With my life.”

 

Paul took my hand in his and we walked outside and he led me down some steps…I said, “Where in the world.”  Paul said, “Hush up….Prisoners don’t talk.”  I said, “Ooo getting a big leap on that kidnapper title huh.”  I giggled as he swatted my ass.

 

After walking forever…he eased me up some steps…we were walking on a wood floor…and he sat me down in a chair.  And I felt him sit next to me…I had my hands on his knees…he was facing me…He said, “Open your mouth.”  I hesitantly opened my mouth and he said, “Bite.”  I bit down and got a mouth full of chocolate covered strawberry…I giggled when I brought my hand up and caught chocolate in the middle of it, and Paul took my hand and slowly licked the chocolate out of the palm of my hand.

 

Then Paul moved closer and brushed his tongue over my lips and pulled me into a deep kiss.  When we parted, he said, “I had this big long speech prepared for you…but you’ve totally broken my concentration…”  Paul reached around and untied the blind fold…I folded it up and laid it across my lap…we were in a huge wooden gazebo, decorated in deep orange roses…which were my favorite…

 

I said, “What is all this?”  Paul said, “I wanted to ask you to marry me…but ow I’m just thinking of actually kidnapping you and forcing you to elope with me.”  I couldn’t help but laugh and said, “Ask me first.”  Paul said, “Okay.”  He stood up and walked to the other side of the gazebo and broke off a beautiful deep orange rose and walked back over and handed it to me…then slowly sank down to one knee and said, “Lori, Will you marry me?”  A few stray tears slid down my cheek and I nodded yes.

 

Paul slipped the ring on my finger…I hadn’t noticed until I looked down and saw it had our birthstones on it…a ruby and diamond on a silver band.  I kissed his lips softly…and said, “Now ask me to elope with you.”  Paul said, “Make me a happy man run away with me for the weekend and let’s get married.”  I stood up and jumped in his arms as I wrapped my legs around his waist and kissed him nearly senseless. 

 

Paul said, “What eloping gets you hot?”

 

I laughed and said, “No…you trying to act all big and bad in front of coworkers, but still man enough to show your romantic side in asking me to marry you the old fashioned way…that gets me hot baby.” 

 

Paul quirked an eye brow and said, “Well…then by all means let’s not waste any of that HOT energy baby.”

 

I said, “Wow…you read my mind.”  I laughed as Paul started carrying my back towards the house…where we made love until the next morning and then got up and eloped the next day.

 

Chapter 20

 

- -3 Months Later- -

 

Paul and I sat at the back of the reception hall and watched as Kelly and Shawn danced as husband and wife for the first time.  Paul pulled me close to him and said, “You okay?”  I smiled and said, “Of course…don’t they look happy?”  Paul said, “Happy then Shawn was in his first marriage.  I don’t think I’ve ever seen to two more fit for each other…well…other then us.” 

 

I laughed and said, “Ego…”  Paul chuckled and said, “You love my ego and you know it.”  I smiled and said, “Yup.”  Paul nuzzling my neck, cheek…and the back of my hand.

 

Paul said, “So is there anything I can give you right now…that we haven’t thought of yet?”  I said, “That’s easy.”  Paul said, “What?”  I smiled and said, “A baby.”  Paul got quiet for a minute and said, “A baby huh…yea…I like the thought of being a father.  Watching you with our child grow inside of you…you becoming a mother with me right by your side…we could do it.”  I said, “You bet your ass we could.”  Paul said, “Agreed…when we get home…we start practicing.”  I nodded my agreement.

 

A nice slow song for every one came on…and Paul said, “So Mrs. Levesque…would you like to dance.”  I smiled and slipped my shoes off, and took Paul’s offered hand and said, “Yes, Mr. Levesque, I think I would love to.”  Paul walked me to the dance floor…he’s also slipped his shoes off.  We were both just trying to get comfortable.

 

*****************************

This could be it, I think I'm in love
It's love this time
It just seems to fit, I think I'm in love
This love is mine

I can see you with me when I'm older
All my lonely night are finally over
You took the weight of the world off my shoulders
The world just goes away

Oh, when you kiss me
I know you miss me--
And when you're with me
The world just goes away
The way you hold me
The way you show me
That you adore me
Oh, when you kiss me
Oh, yeah

You are the one, I think I'm in love
Life has begun
I can see the two of us together
I know I'm gonna be with you forever
Love couldn't be any better
The world just goes away

Oh, when you kiss me
I know you miss me
And when you're with me
The world just goes away
The way you hold me
The way you show me
That you adore me—
Oh, when you kiss me
Oh, yeah

(Instrumental Solo)

I can see you with me when I'm older
All my lonely nights are finally over
You took the weight of the world off my shoulders
The world just goes away

When you kiss me
I know you miss me
And when you're with me
The world just goes away
The way you hold me
The way you show me
That you adore me
The World Just goes away

Oh, when you kiss me
I know you miss me
Oh, the world just goes away
When you kiss me

I might have started out my adult life broken…but Paul helped fix me…in more ways then one.

 

The End
