But now everything is wrong, Becky is scared of everything including her own shadow and her kids hate her, April heard Colby's speech to Becky about how amazing she is and Colby ran after April, leaving Becky alone once more.
Colby
I eventually found April, she was a block away from Becky's house on some vandalised park bench. I walked up to her slowly, just sitting down on the bench alongside her.
"I'm sorry~"
"No, please don't be sorry because I know you can't help it. I understand why you love her and that hurts me, because you never loved me as much as you love her. I should've known because then I could've prepared myself for this pain...what are we going to do? Because it's just not fair to keep doing this if our hearts aren't in it..."
"But April I love you..."
"I'll always be second best to Becky...I was just a one night stand turned rebound."
"No, you were so much more than that to me. You're my wife...of course I love you."
My voice quivered as I held back my tears, she looked up at me as another set of tears rolled down her face. I went to wipe them away but she grabbed my hands stoping me.
"Please Colby don't make this any harder than this needs to be, no matter how hard I try you'll always love Becky more and that breaks my heart but I understand. Now please just take this and go back to Becky, she clearly needs you more than me right now. So just go...we'll work out things later but right now you need to get back to the love of your life."
She slid off her wedding ring and she placed it onto my open palm, I could see how much it was hurting her and I could no longer hold back my tears, I really do love April but she's right, I'll never love anyone as much as I love Becky and that hurts because I wish I didn't. My life would be so much easier, which is wrong of me for thinking that. April is right, I need to get back to Becky...because she needs me, she needs me now more than ever and I need her too.
"I'll see you at home, give Becky...my...best...please."
She stood up from the bench and began to walk away from me, and do you want to know the thing that hurt the most was the fact that I was so much more heartbroken over Becky.
Becky
I pulled Colby's t-shirt over my knees as I tried to block out the noise of Dolphs voice as it thrummed through the house. The police were arresting him but he was resisting, I couldn't see anything but I could just hear him, I could hear his voice which caused every hair across my bruised and bloody skin to stand up. Suddenly the basement door swung open and light poured down into it, I saw Dolph and it made my heart stop.
"You stupid bitch, one day you will regret this...you will fucking REGRET THIS!"
The officers managed to pull him away and one slipped down the staircase to help me, I crawled back into the corner and I hid my face away from everyone. I might as well be dead because at this point there is not point in me staying alive, I'm completely fucking worthless.
"We need some paramedic's down here!"
The officer shouted and I flinched, hiding myself even more as paramedics rushed down the basement stairs. I just want to die, I don't want this pain anymore...it's really not worth it.
"Please let me through, she trusts me..."
I could hear Colby's voice and I almost felt relief, but also scared. I tried to build my wall up even more but it was too late, Colby was already by my side.
"I'm here now...he's never going to hurt you again."
Colby wrapped his arms around me and I couldn't hold back any longer, I practically collapsed into his arms and I just sobbed, my tears over took me and I just let them all out. Everything that Dolph has done to me just flooded my mind as I sobbed into Colby's chest, everything hurts and my tears revealed even more bruises as the foundation hiding them ran down my face along with my tears...
"Becky...just let them check you over. Please...I-I need you to be okay, so please just let them look after you because I can't lose you too."
"Why...I've got nothing to live for. I've got nothing left..."
"You have me...you have me to live for. The kids, our friends...you could come back to wrestling...you've got everything to live for Becky. Dolph doesn't have the ability to take it away from you anymore..."
"Please Colby...please don't say his name."
"Okay, I'm sorry...Becky please. If not for anything else...do if for me and the kids, they need you and I need you. I have and always will love you so please just let them look after you..."
I looked up at Colby and I could see the pain in his eyes, I watched the tears roll down his face and my heart ached. I know what I have to do because I don't want him to be hurting. I know I have to let the paramedics look at me, for him.
"As long as you stay with me the whole time, as long as you don't leave me...because I don't wanna be alone anymore, I really can't do this on my own."
"I won't leave you, I promise. I'll stay with you and I'll keep you safe, he can't hurt you now."
