Thanks a million for reviewing. Seriously, you're the best.
Here's the final chapter. Sorry it's a day late.
It's twelve years on, and sort of recaps on what happened between Ted and Kate-Lynn throughout the story. Enjoy anyway.
Chapter 19: Everything Comes Out in Vince's Office
"Come on Aaron. We're going to see all of your uncles in the WWE." I said, bringing twelve-year old Aaron along.
"Do you think I'll be allowed to wrestle in the ring?" Aaron asked, a toothy grin spread across his face.
"Probably after the show, but until then you're to stay here backstage. Ok?" I asked. Aaron nodded.
"Good. Now let's go find your father first. He could be anywhere." I told him.
Nearly everyone by now knows Aaron. If he's ever backstage at the show, everyone would go, 'Hey Kate-Lynn. What's up Aaron?'. I liked it in a way because I know that since everyone likes Aaron, there's less of a chance for anything to happen to him.
I walked past Vince's office, and heard him yelling. I stopped a second and listened. I wasn't eavesdropping, I was just curious to see who was getting in shits.
"Vicky Guerreo, if you don't leave my office immediately, I'll throw you out on top of your head. And you can kiss goodbye to being permanent manager of Raw too." He said. Someone grabbed my shoulder, and I let out a small squeak.
"You shouldn't be eavesdropping on Vince yelling at Vicky Guerreo. He doesn't like that." Ted whispered in my ear.
I smirked. "How do you know that it was Vicky Guerreo he was yelling at? You must have been eavesdropping too."
"Hey dad." Aaron said, smiling.
"What's up Aaron?" Ted smiled, messing up Aaron's hair.
"Hey, hey, watch the hair!" Aaron complained, spiking it back up again.
"That came from your side." Ted told me, watching Aaron fussing over his hair.
"So he's more an Orton than he is a DiBiase?"
"No. He's more a Kate-Lynn than he is a DiBiase." Ted replied. "Come on. Cody and the rest are waiting for us."
We left our hiding spot, and just as we were passing Vince's office, the door opened and Vicky was literally thrown out into the larger wheelie bin.
"Ah. There's our DiBiase family. How are you Aaron?" Vince asked, holding his hand out for Aaron to shake. I've taught Aaron loads about speaking to Vince, and I hope it pays off.
"I'm grand sir, thanks. You?" Aaron asked. He took Vince's hand and shook it politely.
"Very stressed. Listen, can I do you a deal?" Vince asked Aaron. I froze, as did Ted.
"Please continue." Aaron said.
"How about we write up your application form to join the WWE. How does that sound?" Vince suggested. A smile spread across his face.
"That sounds great sir, but aren't I too young yet?" Aaron asked, confused.
"It's always good to have your place set early, no matter what age you are. Sure your mother started wrestling at only sixteen." Vince said, bringing us all into his office.
"Mam did say that to me. So I'll have to wait four years to join the WWE?" Aaron asked again.
"Think about it. Four years to practise against your parents. To beat them in a proper wrestling match. Plus all the years you already have been wrestling them." Vince said, letting Aaron think about it.
"OK. Can I practise in the ring outside before and after shows?"
"Of course. You can even wrestle others if you want to. I've heard you wanted to try and wrestle Edge, so could could use him as a practise dummy."
"When can I practise?" Aaron asked eagerly. He was really desperate to get into the business.
"We have to think of school as well Aaron." I interjected.
"What did you do about school when you joined at sixteen?" Aaron retaliated.
"I'm not letting you do what I did. You can get a tutor." I told him.
"You didn't answer my question."
"Explain it to him." Ted told me.
I sighed. "Fine. When I was sixteen, I was through nearly every school in the state, and was kicked out of each and every one of them for fighting. One letter, and a clip of me fighting, that was sent home from school, Randy accidentally took to work with him. When he left his bag for a match, Cody found the letter, read it, and then showed it to Vince, as well as the clip." I began.
Vince spoke up. "I remember that. Most of the moves she performed were ones Randy would use in the ring, so I decided to bring her into the business since she was of legal age. There was no way of educating Kate-Lynn, so we left her to the wrestling, and I admit she took Raw by storm. The viewers ratings went beyond sky high, but we didn't put her in a main storyline yet. We didn't want to throw everything at her at once. But then Ted came along."
"We fought so much, it became a daily thing. It got worse again when Legacy began, and then the fights became hourly. Then something changed. I think it was at your birthday, then at the spin the bottle when we were hiding from the older guys." Ted began to remember.
I did too. "Yeah. We had nowhere to hide so we ended up on the top bunk of a bed, curled up tight so we wouldn't be caught.
Then we got down and the others suddenly came back in, and I was terrified of getting in trouble with Randy, because he was really strict back then.
Like our thoughts were in sync, I hid behind Ted and Ted hid me, making sure Randy didn't catch me. He was like my protector." I smiled, taking Ted's hand affectionately.
"We didn't know where we stood after that. Did we still hate each other? Did friendship come along? More? We were both confused, but ignored it though.
We then went back to St. Louis where the next show was being held, and considering that's where your grandparents lived, Legacy stayed in their house.
The freaky part was, that night, Kate-Lynn got a phone call from her mother, who was supposedly dead. We went out to the graveyard, and unburied her mam I guess. Turns out that she never died."
"Everything was ok there I guess, then TNA came along." I murmured the last part. I was never fond of remembering that little era.
"That was harsh, on both of us. You see, Randy had seen your mam and I getting closer and closer, and wasn't happy with it. So he sent me away to TNA, making everyone else think that I decided to move. I was quite annoyed, but had to listen to him."
"Why did you have to?" Aaron asked, after a long silence.
"I had to son. I was threatened." Ted said sadly. "So Kate-Lynn followed be all the way to LA from St. Louis-"
"Because I figured out that I loved him.
The depression was too much, which helped me figure that out, so I flew out on a plane after Ted to catch up with him and tell him." I admitted. "So we eventually bumped into each other, and then spent the night together in a hotel room.
After that, Ted had sent me home, and I was happier, but yet still upset about not being with him. We promised that we'd text every day, but then they stopped too.
One night, Cody brought me to see Ted, because he knew where TNA was staying. It was there we actually admitted it to each other that we loved each other and, obviously, we got together. That's when I figured out that Randy had sent Ted away." I said. Just thinking about what Randy had done made me a little pissed off again.
"So I moved back to WWE, with the help of Peter Facinelli who was guest host on Raw, I was brought back onto Raw.
All was well, and then Randy got mad, again, about Kate-Lynn and I being together, so made us get married because Kate-Lynn was still an Orton. There was no problem with that, so we got married, and then the sex began to increase. We even had a seriously hot make-out session in a changing cubicle in a clothes shop somewhere. That little old lady was so funny." Ted grinned. I hit his chest.
"Don't be giving Aaron ideas. He's still only twelve." I hissed.
"That following Monday on Raw, Randy was really pissed off and attacked us in the ring. He attempted to RKO me but ended up getting Kate-Lynn." Ted continued. That was one thing Ted never forgave Randy about, was that RKO.
"That wasn't part of a storyline either." Vince said. "Which I wasn't happy about. I had to suspend the three of you for three months, which made the ratings drop a bit but I had to stand by my word. Everything was quiet. Superstars were afraid to talk. I was nearly afraid to speak myself. Those three months were so tense, but nothing could be done." Vince said, and he's genuinely regretting it.
"So while we were off the show, Kate-Lynn and I had a run in. We thought that Kate-Lynn could have been pregnant, but it turned out she wasn't. It was just a common flu or something."
"When we got back onto Raw, I was very stressed. I managed to pick a fight with Maryse, something no Diva would have done, and what topped everything off, was that Randy resigned from Raw suddenly. It turned out that he was only gone for a small while to rethink how he was acting about Ted and I.
Then I became pregnant on you, so that put me longer time off Raw. We told both sets of parents, and I guess everything went uphill from there. Randy was happy again. I spent some time at home too. Then you came along Aaron." I smiled.
I then noticed the form sitting on the table.
"Shit. We're supposed to be signing the form, not telling our life story!"
"Fuck! I forgot." Ted replied, putting his face in a hand with embarrassment.
"Ok Aaron. Just fill in what's necessary." Vince explained.
Aaron took up the pen and filled in the blanks. Vince then signed it, making everything official.
"It's official kid. When you hit sixteen, you're joining the Raw roster. And don't worry Kate-Lynn, he'll be in school during the day. I'll leave his matches near the end of the show so he can get his homework done too."
"Thank you Vince." I smiled. "Honestly."
"I understand where you're coming from anyway. I'd do the same with Shane and Stephanie if I were in your position." Vince agreed. "Now go on ahead and finish the show."
The three of us got up and left.
After the show: "So are you happy now that you're going to be in the WWE now?" Ted asked as we went into the car park to go home.
"Of course." Aaron grinned. Evan stood there with his own wife and his eleven year old daughter, Casey. Aaron immediately noticed her.
"See you later." He told us and made his way over to Casey.
Aaron held his hand out to Casey. "Hey, I'm Aaron." He said smoothly.
"That came from Ted's side." Evan and I said at the same time.
"At least he's getting her." Casey began giggling and messing with her hair.
"Hey, at least they're not fighting. Then that would have been a Ted and Kate-Lynn mark 2." Evan pointed out. Ted and I hit him.
"What was that for?" Evan asked.
"Nothing."
Aaron held his hand out to Casey, who took his hand, and the two left to go off somewhere else.
"Definitely came from Ted's side." Evan and I agreed.
"Hey!"
And that's the end of the story people. Please review and tell me what you think. I hope you enjoyed the chapter and story. I know this one isn't as exciting as the others would have been, but I was never good at writing final chapters anyway.
TTYL,
