Good Luck, Kid. (HBK) {Watty's 2019)

50. Apologies

Standing out on the back porch with ten hungover wrestlers, Jed, Matt, Roadie, Bart Gunn, Mark, Glenn, Rey and Eddie. We watched my pawpaw and dad shoot at a target for target practice.

I leaned against the porch rail watching my dad shoot his gun, we haven't spoken but we would share little looks of either sad or mad faces at each other.

My dad turned around holding his 12 guage over his shoulder "So which of you steroid takers is dating my baby girl?" I smacked a hand to my hand while all guys looked wide eyed "It don't take a scientist to figure it out, boys" he told them, reloading his gun.

All wrestlers pointed to Shawn who looked like he was gonna shit himself any moment from the hole that gun made on the target.

I sighed and pushed away from the railing "Dad, don't scare him. And quit calling 'em steroid takers, damn" I said as I moved towards Shawn and put my hand on his shoulders, he looked at me hand like my dad would shoot it off of him at any second.

Dad set his gun down and smiled at me "I have to act tough, Ennie. I have to let them know, if any of them hurt you I will come guns blazing" he said and looked at Shawn "And I know how to cut balls off thanks to years of skinning deer to feed my family-"

"Okay! Thank you dad" I said as Jed stepped in between us with a smirk.

"Can you two please act like this? At least for the rest of the time of you two being in the same state. I miss this."

I looked at dad, who looked at me and I sighed before walking toward him "I think we can do that" he told his son as he opened his arms up to me, I hugged him and smiled.

"So, will you come to Raw tomorrow night?" I asked with a  smile, he nodded and I gave him one last squeeze before walking back towards the boys.

Dad picked his gun back up "So, Shawn right? Wanna play a game? You grab a apple from the kitchen, walk to where the target is and place it on your head while I try to shoot-"

"Dad!" I yelled as Shawn's face turned ghost white.

Dad grinned "Whos hungry?"

Damn!

*Shawn*

I dont know which is scarier. Hunter kicking me in his sleep in that damn queen bed we have to share, or Adri's dad.

At this point, I choose Adri's dad.

But, if that were true. I wouldn't be sneaking into my girlfriend's bedroom window like a burglar, thanks to the trusty tree outside her window. I slowly raised back down the window and turned to face a twin sized daybed.

That is when I seen it, how her world was.

Dark purple painted walls, clothes thrown everywhere, pictures of Undertaker, Ric Flair, Hulk Hulgan, Andre the Giant, and even Band posters lined the walls.

A shirt had been framed up on her wall, it was a Wrestling shirt. Something was Written under it caling Mark by his first ring name, must of been from the first match she ever went to.

Turning around, I almost jumped.

Because, I came face to face with a  picture of ...myself. I reached up and took it off of her wall beside her bed with a raised eyebrow, it was from a couple years back.

And it was the only picture beside her bed. A smirk came onto my face. So, she had a crush on me even before I tried to charm her, I thought cockily as she turned in her bed and her eyes opened seeing me.

I pressed the picture back onto her wall "Hello, beautiful" I said as I sat on the bed beside her head. She raised up and glared at me.

'Who said you could be in my room" she said annoyed, God I loved when she got annoyed with me. And the way she held her mouth when she was suspicious of me.

I leaned forward and put my forehead to hers "I didnt get to see your room. And now that I have I realized something ..." She waited for me to finish, I grinned sarcastically "You had a crush on me."

She just stared at me "Gee, what made you think that? The fact I blushed when your hand touched mine in the parking lot after giving me my papers, or the fact I teased you? Or that I fell flat on my face when I seen you?"

I cocked my head to the side "That was signs? I thought you were just clumsy" I said truthfully, she scowled at me and I kissed her head.

"Was it the hair? How I dressed? Oh" I snapped my fingers and grinned "My eyes."

She sighed and crossed her arms "Your attitude. I like arrogant, cocky, cute guys" she said making me smile "Plus, your smile got my heart."

I laid down beside her and wrapped a arm around her "It always does" I said and laid my head on top of hers.

"Arent you afraid one of my brothers, my dad or grandpa will check in on me and find you?"

"Nah. I'm too happy to be sad" I said making her roll her eyes "I love you, Adrienne."

"I know. I have known since the ambulance ride."

I looked down at her "You said you didn't remember it."

She smiled cockily this time "I lied. But, hearing you say 'Your a strong girl, Adri. The pain will go away, I love you' helped me through the pain of my knee" she said, looking up at me.

I just stared down at her before smiling and laying my head on hers.

My girl.
