*Just wanna say that I can't believe this is the FINAL chapter of My Career.. I could just go on right now, but on with the final chapter..*
(August 20th; 8am)
I was dreading this day for the past four days. Today is the day Punk is leaving and going to be gone for a month. That's right.. a month, because he's returning back to the WWE being gone for so long and they want him to be the WWE Champion again, so they need him to prove that he gets his title back before he left. While he was gone, they said he injuried his arm, which was a total lie and most people knew what went on thanks to rumors and most of those rumors that I was apart of, which most were wrong. But whatever.. a whole month being away from me and Ava.. I'm torn already. The ride to the airport was long and quite.. him and I were in the back seat close to each other and Ava in my arms. Colt was driving us there and he was silent.. he knew this would be emotional for us, and him cracking stupid jokes would help the situation. Colt pulled into a parking space at the airport and I was very reluctant to get out of the car with Punk.. I just felt like sitting there for forever. "Come on." Punk said opening his door and helping me out of the car. He grabbed his bags from Colt's trunk, and he used his free arm and put it around my shoulder, his fingers just dangling over Ava. She grabbed his fingers and examined them, then she sucked on them not ever wanting to stop. Punk looked down at her and smiled with a tear in his eye but he turned away to wipe it, he thought I didn't see but I did. We got in the airport and we walked slowly over to where he needed to be checked out for security. "This is probably the most hardest goodbye we've ever done.." Punk said taking his arm off of me and facing me. "I know.." I said looking down at Ava. "I'll be in the car... be safe bro have fun." Colt said hugging him. "Thank you.. please look after them and make sure they're gonna be okay." He said pointing at me. "Of course." Colt said patting my back then leaving. "I'm gonna miss my two favorite girls in the world so much." He said wrapping his arms around me giving me a hug with Ava in between us looking up at us. Lord knows what's going in her little brain. "That face.." Punk said taking her from my arms and holding her up. "Ehh.." She wimpered while he held her up and looking around. "This face, is so hard to say goodbye too and not wanna eat because she's too adorable." "So you'd eat your own daughter cause shes too adorable?" I asked smirking at him. "You know what I mean." He said to me as I stuck my tongue out at him. He looked at Ava then at me. "She's got my eyes." He said as I smiled. "Aww... I'm gonna miss you so much Ava Grace." He said kissing her cheek and cuddling her and kissing her cheek one more time before handing her back over to me. "And I'm gonna miss you Kristen." He said hugging me tight and kissing me on the lips. Our lips moved in snyc and the whole world stopped around us, it was just us two no one else. He pulled away and looked at me again real quick and picked his bags back up and turning away real quick then turning back around kissing Ava's forehead then mine. "Bye.. love you." He said. "Bye I love you too..." I replied as he walked away and went through security.. that was it, he's going away for a month.
(Home)
"So Phil's gone now and it's just me and Ava by ourselves." I said explaining to my mom over the phone. "Do you need me to come down there and help you out?" She asked. "No, I'm pretty sure I got it." I said, the tone in my voice she knew I was upset and wanted some help. "Are you sure? Cause I can quickly find a flight and come over there." She said. "No, no. I'm gonna be okay. If I need you I'll let you now." "Okay, I'll let you go cause I'm hearing someone cry in the background." I turned over to Ava how was on the couch crying. "Oh shoot.. uh okay mom love you bye." I said hanging up and dropping my phone on the floor, not even caring. I ran over to Ava on the couch and cuddled her in my arms. "Shh... shhh. Ava shh.." I said calming her down. I've never liked when babies cried.. even when I was a kid I never liked it. Like I'd be in a store see a baby all happy then they look at me and they just stop being happy and cry. Like why? But now having Ava cry infront of me is just hard because the only time she'll ever cry is when she's waking up or she went... in her diaper. Turn out I wasn't helping her at all. I just made her crying much worse. I began to panic and I didn't even know what to do. I grabbed my phone still holding Ava in my arms and called Punk hoping he would answer. "Hello?" He asked. "Ava won't stop crying. I need help!" I said panicking even more. "Shh.. Kristen it's okay just put the phone on speaker and put it near Ava." I did as he told. "I did." "Jesus what did you do? She's crying like mad." He said. "I didn't do anything! Help me!" I said. "Alright, alright. Ava... Ava Grace.." Punk said calmly, Ava looked around the room still crying but she was calming down. Then Punk began to sing to her, he was singing Cult of Personality.. believe me I don't know... but he was really calming her down. Then Ava began to smile at me. "Oh my God.. baby she's smiling!" I exclaimed. He continued to sing and when he was done he took a deep breathe. "Is she better now?" He asked. "Much better. Thank you so much Phil.. text me when you land. I love you." I said. "I love you too and Ava." He said. "She loves you too.. bye." "Bye." I hung up my phone. I looked at Ava who was still smiling then the door bell rang and all the dogs barked. "SHH!! Shut the hell up!" I whispered loudly. I opened the door and saw Colt standing before me. "Yes?" I asked. "Uh.. having a tough time?" He asked me. "Uh... not really well uh.. take her!" I said handing him Ava by surprise. "Well okay then." He said coming inside and sitting on the couch as I sit in the other chair in the room criss crossed apple sauce buring my face in my hands and taking my hair out of the messy bun it was in. "It's been an hour with him gone and you're already breaking down." Colt said. I looked up at him. "You try being a mother. Giving birth and waking up every hour of the night and hearing a cry and calming her down." I snapped at him. "Oh and try breast feeding it's not fun." I added. "Actually it does seem kinda cool. Can you demonstrate for me?" He asked me. "You're a damn pig." I said back to him. "Wait so you just go like this?" He asked taking his shirt off and putting Ava near his man tits. "Colt stop!" I said before grabbing Ava back. "I'm only kidding Kristen, I thought me coming over here would make you feel happier." "Well it's not working obbviously, where's Natalie?" I asked sitting back down. "Working.. it's all she ever does is work." He said sighing. "What does she even do?" I asked. "Oh, she's apart of this group and they travel all through Illinois describing why it's not good to smoke. She gives like reasons why and personal experciences and how they can quit." He said. "And you're positive she's been smoke free since my anniversary?" I asked. "We go into the store if they sell cigarettes she gives them a disgusting look and says I'm never going back." He said. "Good." I said then sighing. It got awkward a little bit then Ava began to turn and whimper. "Not again Ava.." I said groaning. "What? What's wrong?" He asked. "She's probably gonna cry again." I said frowning. "You need to get use to her crying randomly, she just wants to be heard." He's right, I thought in my head. "You're right." I said, then I felt Ava get warm underneath me and it was all wet. "Yep.. she just peed." I said. "That's you're job not mine." "Listen buddy boy.. you're gonna want to get married and have a kid soon. Natalie's not gonna be young forever and niether are you. So come on and help me." I said. He groaned but I didn't care. I brought him upstairs into mine and Punk's room and brought him over to Ava's changing table. "Talk about messy.." Colt said looking around. "I haven't had time to clean yet!" I exclaimed getting Ava a new diaper. "I noticed that..OH MY GOD IS THIS PHIL'S UNDERWEAR?!" Punk exclaimed picking up Punk's superman boxers. "Uh.. may- yes." I admitted. "So gross." He said. "Come over here dammit!" I said. He obeyed and watched as I changed Ava. "Why am I watching you?" He asked. "I already explained to you! You're gonna want kids so you might as well as watch and impress Natalie when you finally get married and have kids." "We haven't even dated for a year yet and you want us to get married already?" He asked me. "Yes." I said. "Well... maybe I should as her soon, We've been getting more serious.." He mumbled. "COLT DO IT PLEASE AND MAKE HER THE HAPPIEST PERSON EVER!" I exclaimed loudly. I turned to Ava to make sure I didn't scare her and I didn't but she was smiling, then I smiled back at her. "Colt look at you're niece," I said holding her up. "Now promise her, that you'll marry Natalie soon." I said bring Ava closer to him as he took her from me. "I promise Ava." And he kissed the top of her forehead as I smiled at him.
(2 months later)
"Ten more seconds babe." Punk said as I was on the exercise bike in the basement. "Oh good God.." I groaned putting my head down as I pettled faster. "Nine, eight, seven six, five," He looked at me sweat dripping from my head. "Count faster!" I yelled. He chuckled at me and continued his count off. "Five, four, three, twooooo... ONE!" He said and I stop pettling and leaned on the bike exhausted. "One question.." I asked him. "Shoot." "Why the hell are you helping me lose all my baby fat on you're 34th birthday when today is you're special day?" I asked. "Eh. I'm just a whole year older. Big woopey doo, plus you said you wanted to lose your baby fat quicker so I'm helping you." "So basically you're training me again?" I asked. "Yes." He said smiling as he brought me closer and I wrapped my arms around his neck. "Just like how we met." I said smiling. I got on my tipey toes and my lips just brushed against his carefully grazing them, and then.. Ava's baby monitor went off. I pulled away form Punk and we both looked at each other. "You go shower.. I'll take care of her." He said. I ran up the stairs and headed straight for the shower. I turned the water on hot and jumped right in. The hot water felt amazing on my sore and tender body. I washed my body then washed my hair, the strawberry scent intoxicating the room. Then my conditioner, when I was done, I wrapped my hair up in a towel and grabbed another one to wrap my body around in. I walked out of the bathroom and went into my room to grab some clothes. I saw Punk on my bed with Ava in his arms and she was sucking on his fingers again. She always does that to him and it's odd. "She's always doing that to you." I said. "I don't mind.. I find it pretty cute." He said, I rolled my eyes at him. "Thank God Colt is baby sitting Ava tonight." I said brushing my wet hair. "Why?" He asked. "We haven't gone out in two months. I miss going out with you." I said. "That's true.. but are you sure having Colt baby sit Ava is the smartest choice?" He asked. I paused real quick.. "What are your parents doing tonight?" I asked. "Probably nothing.. why don't we just bring her over when we're about to leave?" He asked me. "No, we've gotta call. What if they go out too?" I asked. "My parents haven't gone out ever since my dad quit drinking. They're both afraid if they go out he's gonna slip up and go back to drinking." He stated. "Good point.. Call them please? I'm gonna get dressed and try to clean up the house because it looks like a hurrican ran through the house and left." He smiled and chuckled at me while Ava was still sucking on his fingers. I ran down the stairs and headed for the basement and started with the pile of laundry that's been sitting for a month to be cleaned. I seperated the whites from the colors, then the towels were put into there own pile. I did the whites first then all I had to do was wait. I headed back upstairs and the kitchen wasn't much of a mess, so I just cleaned up the living room. After about twenty minutes of cleaning that I cleaned my room and then the dogs room about two hours later that was all done with. Including all the laundry and I was tired. "We don't have to go out for my birthday if you're tired from all that cleaning." Punk said on the couch watching tv with Ava laying on his stomach looking up at the tv. I shook my head in no. "No I wanna go." He looked at me and smiled. "Don't you dare start singing I wanna go by Britney Spears because I said I wanna go." I said pointing my finger at him. "Sorry, then lets start getting ready it's already five pm. I told my parents expect us around six thirty to drop Ava off if we decide to go out." He said. "Okay, give me about an hour that's all I need." I said heading back upstairs and into the bathroom. I pluged my sraightener in and waited for it to heat up, while that was going on, I went to go pick out an outfit for tonight. "Phil! Are you wearing anything special tonight!?" I yelled from upstairs. "Uhh ripped jeans and that light blue button down shirt!" He yelled back. "Okay!" The outfit i ended up picked out was black leggings with a blue long sleve shirt and the shoulders of the shirt were cut off so my shoulders would show, and my shoes were my black Toms. Nothing to fancy nothing to bummy just right. I straightened my hair and did my makeup in about fourty five minutes, a new record I might add. I headed back down dressed and ready while Punk was still watching TV with Ava. "You look beautiful." He said smiling at me, making me blush slightly. "Thank you." I said smiling giving him a kiss. "New lip gloss flavor?" He asked licking his lips. "Yes." I said smiling. He handed me Ava and he went upstairs to go get changed. "Imagine.... in about thirty years me and daddy will be all old and you'll be married and possibly give me grandkids.. oh my. Stay little forever Ava." I said to her. She knew I was talking to her from the way she was looking at me. But all she did was smile at me and pull at my hair gently. "I'm ready!" Punk said walking down the stairs. "Good." I said smiling. He looked amazing as always and remember how he used to have his slicked hair back? He got rid of it.. he cut his hair shorter and now he spikes it, like how he did back in the Nexus days and he looks much better now and younger. We got into our car and drove to Punk's house first and dropped Ava off and I gave his parents some of her toys and what her daily routine is for the night, they nearly had their heads spinning because I was giving so many instructions. What? I just want my baby to be okay with her grandparents jeez. "Kristen, please. Go have fun with Phil and enjoy his birthday, we are former parents remember?" Phil's mom said to me. "I know, I know. Well okay we'll see you later. Be good Ava." I said kissing her forehead as Punk held her. He did the same and handed her to his mom. "Have fun you two." His dad said. "We will!" Punk shouted back as we headed back into our car and drove off. "Oh my God... Phil.. I forgot to write down on that sheet what time she's suppose to eat at oh my God, go back!" I said panicing. "Shhh... babe.. come on, Ava's gonna be okay. My parents will take good care of her. They'll know when she needs to eat." He said grabbing my hand and calming me down. Punk drove us down to the pier for his birthday dinner. He picked that restaurant where everyone took me for my birthday. We sat down and ate our food and we basically talked about what's been going on in the WWE. Then he got serious with me. "I need to retire soon.." He said. My heart literally dropped. "Um.." I took a sip of my water. "Why?" I said. "Because.. look at me.. I'm getting older I had one surgery and I don't need another one. I'm listening to what my body wants.. not what the WWE or what the fans want. Sorry." He said. I nodded and hes completely right. "You're right. But when is soon?" I asked. "Maybe in about three years? Five the most. I've been doing this since I was 18.. I think nearly almost twenty years doing the same thing will be enough." He said chuckling at the end of it. I smiled at him, I'm still very proud of him for doing this nearly his whole life. We ordered his birthday dessert, chocolate cake with hot fudge dripping down the sides and wipped cream on top and all the waitors in the restaurant sang happy birthday to him. When we were done, we paided and we decided to walk on the pier and looked around holding my hand. "What will you do when you retire?" I asked. "Sit on the couch and eat ice cream all day and night." I laughed at him. "I don't know really." He said. "Remeber how when we first met? You trained me? Maybe we could open our own training school so we can still be involved in wrestling." I said. He looked down at me and smiled. "I like the way you think." He said kissing my forehead. We walked around for a little bit more and we realized it was 11pm and we had to get Ava back. We drove back to his parents house and picked her up, she was sound asleep. We got back home and put her in her crib and tucked her in. We looked over her and played the lulabye music for her to make sure was still asleep. "This moment.." Punk said speaking and wrapping his arms around my waist. "..I never want to end." I nuzzled my head into his neck and kissing it lightly. We waited until the music stopped playing for Ava then we changed into our PJs and went to bed.
(One Year Later)
"Daadddddyyyy!" Ava yelled as we were backstage in Chicago Illinois tonight. A whole year has gone by and now Ava is one year old.. which means im know thirty one and Punk is now thirty five. Jesus we are old goats, but anyways it's now December. "I'm gonna get you!" Punk said as he was chasing after her. I was recording them on our flip camera.. what? Percious family memories jeez. "Gotcha!" Punk said as he picked her up and twirled her around. Boy has Ava grown.. her eyes are as green as Punk's her hair is long and brown.. and curly like mine! She's got a very big personality and she's a happy toddler. "Is Daddy gonna win his match tonight?" He asked her as he stopped twirling her around. "Yeah!" She responded. "And why is that?" He questioned her. "Because Daddy's da best in da world!!" He exclaimed hugging him. For a one year old she can also talk pretty well too. "And is mommy gonna win her match tonight too?" He asked. "YES!" She yelled. "Why?" He asked. "Because Mommy can kick butt and she's da best in da world too!" She said smiling. AND YOU'RE ALL PROBABLY LIKE I'M WRESTLING!?!!?!? Yes. Yes I am, but not just any kindof match.. a match I made up. Let me tell you guys what happened last month.. I appered back on the stage because Beth was being a stupid Twat and was saying the competition sucks and no one is good enough to take her title so I came back and made up my own kindof match. Not sure if any of you watch impact wrestling but basically it's a normal match except there are these ropes that make an x over the ring and it's called an x divison match and it consists as many people as you want and the only way to win is to grab the title in the middle of the x hanging above the center of the ring. So basically it's the special match of the night and I'm super pumped because I haven't wrestled in about two years and I've missed it so much. I put my attire on the I wore in Wrestlemania against Trish Stratus and it's gonna be a big night. I stopped recording and put the camera back in my bag. "BIIIIIIITCH YOU'RE COMPETING TONIGHT AFTER TWO YEARS!!!" Kat yelled running in and giving me a hug. "Well hello to you too." I said as she let go of me. "UNCLE PAULY AND AUNT KAT!!!" Ava yelled. "Hi sweetie!" Kat said picking her up and twirling her around. PJ just hugged her. "And yes I am competing after two years and I'm so pumped!" I said jumping up. "Whose even in it?" Punk asked. "Uh... I don't even know.." I said. "Wow, I'd go prepare if I was you because your match in twenty minutes." He said. "Oh crap.. alright I'm gonna go." I said walking up to him kissing him goodbye. "Good luck out there." He said smacking my butt hard, ahh just like the old days when I was around 24/7. "Bye Ava!" I said picking her up and hugging her. "Bye mommy! Good luck! Third Degree does girls out dere!" She said, almost perfectly still with a little baby talk. "I will because you said so." I said setting her down. "I'm gonna come along with you Krissie." Kat said. "Okay come on!" I said walking out of the locker room. "Are you in the match tonight?" "Yeah! Why wouldn't I be?" She asked. "I don't know just wondering. Being back here seems so odd. I missed it so much." "We've missed you being here.. but uhh Krissie.. I think something is wrong with me.." She said. "What?" I asked. "Well uhh.. one night.. me and PJ were uh.. ya know." "Yeah.. and.." "I think he kinda..." "Kinda what?" "gotmepregant." She said quickly. "What?" I asked. "Alright, I think he got me pregnant!" She exclaimed. "KAAAT!!!! THAT'S SO EXCITING!!!" I screamed. "No it's not! I still wanna wrestle! I haven't been showing signs.. should I go get tested?" "Yes! Go to a doctor and don't use three tests in a row like I did." I said rolling my eyes remembering the moment. "Oh okay.. let's go prepare!" She said running off and I did too.
(Diva's Championship Match; X Divison Style)
"AND PLEASE WELCOME BACK FROM CHICAGO ILLINOIS..... KRISTEN!!!!" Justin Roberts said into the microphone as I made my way through the curtain getting a huge reaction from the crowd. the butterflies in my stomach came back like how they use to and I was jumping around and skipping hit all the hands of the fans. I made my way back into the ring and looked at my oppents. Which were Kat, Jammy, Jenny, Beth, Natalya, Aksana and Eve. We all looked at each other and I raised my hand one more time. I then made eye contact with Kat, Jammy and Jenny and we all winked at each other and nodded our heads. The bell rang and we took charge at one of them and taking them to the matt and just puched them.I had Beth, Kat had Natalya, Jammy Aksana and Jenny Eve. I wasn't really paying attention to what they were doing I was just focused on Beth was so happy to get my hands on her. I picked her up and gave her a suplex. I noticed when I got back up Jammy was going for the title but was taken down by Eve but then Jenny gave Eve a clothesline. Aksana then came running at me but I kicked her in the gut and speared her. "OUT OF THE WAY!!" Kat yelled. I looked up and she was on the top turnbuckle and gave Aksane a 450 and nailed it. She got up but feel back down. "Oh my God.." She said as I checked up on her. I helped her up and asked if she was okay as she clutched her stomach. "Yeam I'm-" She was cut off and so was I caught off gaurd thanks to Beth who clotheslinded the hell out off us, making me down a frikking back flip and landing on my stomach. Beth looked up at the title over the ring and saw all the bodies laying inside and outside the ring. She smiled and and headed up the turnbuckle slowly she then reach the one rope and climbed slowly over with her feet dangling. Big mistake. I recovered and got up and pulled her down by her leg letting her land on her feet. I then gave her a roundhouse kick and got her dazzed and confused. I then got her in position for the Third Degree, smiled at the crowd then hit it. I got up quickly and screamed. "THAT'S FOR YOU AVA!!!" I then turned around and got slapped by Eve. I held my cheek then looked at her and put my hands on my hips giving her a pissed look. "Was that a smart idea?" I asked her and she looked scared. "Uh... not my best idea." She said "Yeah not really." i responded. "Krissie move!!" I turned around and saw Jammy running after her. She tackled her and knocked her out of the ring and was just beating the hell out of her not even caring about the match. Same thing Jenny was doing with Aksana. It was just me Kat, Beth and Natayla all in the ring and Beth and Natayla former teamates were going at it. Kat and I looked at each other and took a seat in the ring and watched them battle at it. They both stopped and looked up at us as we got up. "ARE YOU TWO EVEN GONNA FIGHT!?" Beth yelled at us. I looked at Kat and we both shrugged our shoulders. "Now we're gonna." I said and we both nailed them with punched and kicks. We both threw them out of the ring and we looked at each other. "Krissie go! Go for the title!" She said looking out if anyone else was gonna come in. "No.. you get it, i'll make sure it's all gonna be okay." I said. "Are you sure!?" She asked nearly halfway up the turn buckle. "Well your halfway up so go!" I said making sure no one was getting in. Beth got up and I got over to the ropes and did a diving cross body onto her and we sold the move perfectly. I got up and noticed that Kat was celebrating in the ring with the title with Jammy and Jenny. I joined them and the two of them picked her up and I pointed at her and clapped for her. They left the ring and I just stayed back for a little bit. I smiled at all the fans raised my hand one more time. I then slid through the ring and left.
(Later that night)
Punk's match just ended and I took Ava to where I usually meet him after his match right behind the curtain. We watched him on the monitor. "You both won tonight!" Ava exclaimed. "Of course we would.. we wouldn't wanna disappoint you on your first time backstage!" I said. "Can we do dis mowe often?" She asked. I picked her up and looked at her. "Of course." I said nuzzling her into my neck. I looked up at the monitor real quick and saw that Punk had a microphone in his hand. "Thank you so much Chicago!" He said. Ava quickly looked up at the monitor. "Mommy what's daddy doing?" She asked. "To be honest I don't know." "Now.. i'd to thank all of you for believing in me.. amd I know we're off the air so I'm gonna say this.. but soon the world will all hear it. Another pipebomb coming your way but.." He took a deep breath and looked out into the crowd. "Expect me.. to not be wrestling soon. By soon I mean in possibly three years.. or five the latest." The crowd started to boo. "Hey, easy guys. This is serious. I had one surgery two years ago.. I don't wanna go through another one. I'm listening to my body and not management.. doing my own thing." He said. He paused for awhile and listened to the CM Punk chant in the building. "Also.. another reason.. one a thing every father here today can relate to especially that has a little girl. Kristen come out with Ava." Punk said and looked at the ramp. "Well let's go." I said to Ava still holding her. We made our way through the curtain and Ava looked around the arena holding me tighter. "Whaa.." She said. "Just wave and smiled." I whispered to her. I got her into the ring and she did as I set her down. She still did it while she was skipping around. "Everyone.. this is mine and Kristen's baby. Ava.. she's one year old and the love of my life. Beside Kristen. I think that every dad's dream is to she her daughter grow up. That's why retirement will be soon for me. I want to watch Ava grow up and I want tp be with her every step of the way." He said looking at her as she was on a turnbuckle still waving. He picked her up by surprise and she wrapped her arms around his neck hugging him. The whole building was in awe. "Ava.. I love you and want to see you grow up." He said to her. She looked at him in the eyes. "I love you too Daddy." She said back to hugging him. I walked over to them and I grabbed her one side and Punk grabbed her other side and we were both holding her. We smiled all at each other. Ava will never forget this moment.. Phil will never forget this moment.. I will never forget this moment.. No one will every forget this moment. This moment will forever remain in our hearts.
