My Shield

p2, Chapter 21

I laid in my big beautiful bed as I looked around smiling. It had felt like forever since I had been here. Sighing quietly I got up and walked to the vanity, looking at my reflection. It was crazy what time had done. I had aged so much but some how, I barley saw a change. My long jet black hair morphed into shoulder length brownish hair. My eyes that were once so filled with life looked as if they had seen it all. It was time to face the music, I'm not as young as I once was. Maybe it was a good thing that I had stopped wrestling. Sure, I was only 34 years old but I felt as if I was 134.

Looking down I saw one of my favorite pictures beautiful framed setting there. It was Brock and I in the ring. I know what you're saying, that's cliche. But it really wasn't. That was the night I had made history for the WWE yet again. The night I proved just because you're a woman doesn't mean you can't be a superstar and run with the boys. Of course many Divas before me had wrestled men. But did they headline Wrestlemania only to conquer their boyfriend and become the World Heavyweight Champion? I don't think so.

I rememer telling Paul I couldn't do it before walking out there. Of course he gave me one of those famous pep talks to bring my spirit up. But when I got out there, four F5's later, it didn't matter to me that Paul and I had turned on Brock, or that Brock was my boyfriend, the only thing that mattered was Morticia. I looked to the crowd from the mat and saw her front row looking at me and smiling. Sure enough, when I got up it took a lot of kicking and a corkscrew moonsault but I did it.

The picture was taken after the match of course. I remember it like it was yesterday. I had the title on my shoulder, eyes red from crying, and Brock had reached out to shake my hand. At that time no one outside of our friends had known we were together, so I had grabbed his hand and pulled him toward me. Planting a kiss on his lips for the first time in the public eye. Te crowd had gone nuts, it was amazing.

I picked the picture up placing a kiss against it before setting it down and walking back to the bed hearing my phone buzz. It was a text, from April.

'From, Sissssta: I'm going to be in South Carolina tomorrow with Phil. Lunch around 11?'

I smiled reading the text, April and I had gotten super close since everything happened. She was my rock.

'To, Sissssta: Gotta get Morticia 2morrw then doctors appointment at 10:30:( how about around 1ish?'

Seconds later she replied telling me she'd see me then.

Scrolling through my phone I decided to do something I hdn't really done since Seth was around. Log on to twitter. As I hit the login button I took a big breath. I knew I shouldn't have shut my fans out after everything but I did. All I had to focus on was wrestling. I didn't want to log on to see what terrible things people had been saying.

I had so many notifications it was unreal. So instead of going through all of them I just clicked on my profile and looked around. The last thing I tweeted was a photo. I clicked on it but soon regretted it. It was Seth and I setting in the car with our sunglasses on and duck faces showing. Sighing I just closed my apps and walked to my office room.

This was defiatley my favorite place in our giant house. It was were I went to clear my mind. Setting in my comfy chair I pulled the drawer out and looked at the stack of envelopes setting there. Grabbing them I read the tops,

'Moricia.(:'

'Frist day of school'

'When dad's being a butthead'

'When you just need to know everything's going to be okay'

'First day of middle school'

'First crush'

'First period:3'

'First day of high school'

'When the world seems unfair'

'First heartbreak'

'The big 16'

'Frist car'

'First Job'

"When you need to know how much I love you'

'Graduation'

'First day of college'

'For him'

'Wedding day'

When I felt a tear slip down my face I had to stop reading them. Laying my head in my hands I began to cry harder. I didn't let up until I felt a hand placed softly on my back. Quickly I turned around seeing Brock standing there with a sincere look on his face. Standing I wrapped myself in his arm and cried into his chest.

"Shh, it's okay." Brock cooed through my hair lovingly.

"She's just growing up too fast." I said as I wiped my tears.

"I know baby. Let's go lay down.."

Short chapter, but we found out after Seth left Ashley took that anger and turned into something badass!

My mom did a few of them letter things for my sister an I so I though it's be cute to add it on!(:

But why do you think Ash got so emotional? Maybe something to do with that doctors appointment?:3
