Scene One - "Why am I not good enough?"
**~**The scene opens up showing Candy sitting in her hotel room. She was sitting on he couch with the TV playin a rerun of Climax Control from the week before. She was paying extra attention to the crowd, to see if her parents were there. She was concentrating so hard, she didn't notice when Marcus came in to the room. He sat down next to her and rested his hand on her thigh.**~**
Marcus: Whatcha doing?
**~**She paused the show and looked at Marcus**~**
Candy: I was checking the crowd to see if my parents were there last week. But I don't see them.
Marcus: Candy, sweetheart, they didn't come.
Candy: How do you know?
Marcus: I called the people in charge of the box office and the tickets. The three tickets you left for them... weren't claimed.
Candy: What?
**~**The sadness took over her face in a wave. Her typical, happy demeanor was replaced by sheer sadness. She held back tears.**~**
Candy: Why didn't they come?
Marcus: I don't know.
Candy: Is it because I lost?
Marcus: No, it's not you at all. It's not they knew you were going to lose last week. Don't blame yourself.
Candy: Why don't they like me?
**~**The tears began to slowly escape her eyes, an run down her cheeks. Marcus took her in his arms and hel her tight, allowing her to cry.**~**
Marcus: Of course they like you. Who wouldn't like you? You are the nicest person anyone has ever known. It's their loss if they choose this.
Candy: Did they choose this because I'm not good enough?
**~**Her tears turned into a sad sob. Her heart was broken. Marcus broke the embrace and held her at an arms length, his hands on her shoulders**~**
Marcus: You stop that RIGHT NOW. You are more than good enough. They don't deserve some one as kind and pure as you. The world doesn't deserve you. They made their own decision. And they made the wrong one. They are the ones missing out.
**~**He used his hand to tenderly brush some stray hairs out of her face, and wipe a tear away from her eye.**~**
Marcus: You know what I think? I think that they don't like themselves. That they are jealous that you get to travel the world, and you have fans, and you are doing what you LOVE. They want what you have. They are bitter, horrible people. So it's not that they hate you, or dislike you at all. They hate that you have what they want.
**~**She sniffled slightly, a tiny hint of a smile starts to peek through on her face.**~**
Marcus: And you know what else I know? That there are tons of people who think you are pretty damn awesome!
Candy: You and Dynamite don't count.
Marcus: Not just us! Bella thinks you are pretty cool. And Amelia, your new friend, she thinks you are pretty neat too! I have seen the way she compliments you on Twitter. And your other new friend, Keira, thinks you are awesome too. She came out to help you last week, no questions asked. You heard all of those fans out there cheering for you chanting your name. THEY know how awesome you are! You are thriving in so many ways, Candy. Don't let anyone dull your shine. Not even "family".
Candy: But it's my parents...
Marcus: Sometimes... family is those who CHOOSE you, not those who you were born into. And you know who taught me that?
Candy: Dynamite?
**~**He chuckled softly. Her tears had stopped and she was beginning to get back to her old self.**~**
Marcus: No. You. YOU are the reason I am who I am today. The day I met you was the day I decided I was going to turn my life around and do better. Because of, and for, you. You showed me what it was like to have family, to have some one who cares for you no matter what. Some one who is always in my corner, rooting for me to succeed. That's what family is, and you taught me that. You have taught so many that... You have so much family with everyone in PWS. David Shane, and Dynamite... we are all family. And that's all that you need, you hear me?
**~**She hugged Marcus tightly. Maybe things weren't so bad?**~**
Candy: Thank you, Marcus. I needed that. When did you get so smart?
Marcus: I was born this way.
**~**He smiled at his wife, and ran his hands through her hair. He adored this woman, and to see her cry over her parents... well that's just not ok. He was going to have to have a word with them... and it wasn't going to be pleasant**~**
Scene Two - "The definition of Family"
**~**The scene opens up about an hour later. Candy was off getting her makeup and hair done for her big photoshoot, Marcus was seen sitting in a chair off to the side, playing on his phone. Fluffy sat on the floor next to his feet. His phone goes off and he looks at the number. He takes a deep breath as he answers it.**~**
Marcus: I have nothing to say to you guys that I haven't already said.
**~**He paused, speaking quietly so Candy wouldn't hear the anger in his voice.**~**
Marcus: NO! You left her hanging last week. All she wanted was to look out into that crowd and see her parents sitting there, watching her, proudly. That's all she wants from you guys and you can't even FAKE THAT! What kind of FAMILY are you to her?
**~**He paused again, as the person on the other end spoke. He seemed very disinterested in what they had to say.**~**
Marcus: NO! Just becuase you provided her with material things does not make you family. A family is a group of people who support each other, that you can confide in, and trust. You don't support her, she can't confide in you, and she sure as HELL can't trust you. She has a new family, and I don't ever want to have to wipe away tears from her cheeks because of you guys again, do you understand me???
**~**He paused again, and looked over at Candy. She was smiling an giggling with the makeup and hair girls, happy as can be. He knew what he was about to do was for the best.**~**
Marcus: Now you listen to me and you listen GOOD. I said it last time, either you start treating her better and supporting her or you get out of her life. For good. No holidays, no phone calls, texts... nothing. Future grandbabies won't know you. I will go out of my way to make sure you never hurt her again. So, out of the KINDNESS of my heart I will offer you ONE MORE CHANCE to change things with her before I go to that extreme. She has a big match this week, and we are still in california. About 2 hours away from you in Los Angeles. She has a really big match this week. A contender spot. I know that doesn't mean anything to you but to her, this is huge. She is competing for a chance at a title. That means that management sees the potential in her, and recognizes her talents. They see big things for her, and are impressed by her. She is so excited, I am actually watching her prepare for a promotional photo shoot right now.
**~**He paused for a moment again, looking at Candy. She turned around and looked at him, smiled big, and blew him a big kiss. He pretended to catch it and place it on his cheek. Her eyes lit up as she turned back around.**~**
Marcus: She is insistant on leaving you guys tickets to this show too. I was against it, but she is strong willed. So there will be 3 tickets at the box office with your names on it. If you guys are not there, and I have to see that look on her face... you are done. I don't care if you have to fake it, put on a fake smile, and pretend to be happy for her and proud of her... If that's what you have to do, then you do it. I don't give two shits if you hate what she is doing with her life, or disagree with her decisions. SHE is happy with her life. She loves her career, and her friends. HER happiness is the most important thing. This is your LAST chance. Do you understand me?
**~**He pause for a moment once more, awating the answer. Once he heard it, he took the phone away from his ear and hung up. He looked back over towards Candy and smiled, seeing her happy means everything to him.**~**
Scene Three - "HI! IM CANDY! AND IM SUPER EXCITED!!!"
**~**The scene fades up with a shot of Candy, looks like it was through a webcam. She was attempting to record a video for her upcoming match on Climax Control against Amelia Hogan and Bella Madison.**~**
Candy: Is this thing on?
**~**She tapped the webcam a few times before smiling really big.**~**
Candy: HI!!! I'm Candy! In case you didn't know, I wrestle for SCW and I have a huge match this week against two people who are super duper awesome! Amelia Hogan and Bella Phoenix... or is it Madision? I don't know for sure but I love them both soooooo much! I'm so excited to get in the ring with them both. I really really really am! They are like... so nice!
**~**She paused for a moment, thinking.**~**
Candy: See... I know Bella for like... for ever and ever! I remember when she was just a kid and was too young to wrestle like us. She was always so nice, but she sure takes after her mother. She's so nice, and smart... I can't wait to be in the ring with her and see how good she is. I never got the chance to wrestle her mom because we were in different divisions in PWS, and even different brands, But that's ok! You know why it's ok? Because I get to face Bella now. And it's gonna be for a shot at a title belt!!! ME! Going for an SCW title after only 2 matches, one of them being a loss. That's SO COOL isn't it?
**~**In the background, Fluffy was heard barking in response.**~**
Candy: I know, Fluffy! It's the coolest! And for them to think that I deserve this shot is the neatest thing ever! Amelia and Bella are both so good in the ring, I don't know how I'm gonna win. I mean, I wish we ALL could win, but even I know that can't happen. So instead, I'm gonna go out there and we are gonna have fun! I trust them, and I know we are gonna put on the bestest match ever!!! These two ladies are the best and one of us is gonna get to challenge for the Outlet Championship... that's a really weird name for a title.
**~**In the background, from off screen, you hear Marcus correct her.**~**
Marcus: Roulette Championship.
Candy: That's what I said. Anyways. I don't have a single bad thing to say about either of my opponents this week. They are both super awesome and super nice. At least one of us will win and go fight for that belt. I hope it's me, but if not, I'm happy it will be one of you guys. Me an Amelia debuted on the same show! She is really nice and has really cool hair! I wish I was brave enough to do something cool to my hair like her with the blue... or Bella with the pink. But I'm just not brave enough to do that. Which tells you that they are sooooooo cool!!!
**~**She tilted her head to the side a little bit, trying to remember something else she wanted to say.**~**
Candy: But I want to wish you both good luck! We all need it. We are all strong in the ring, and it's anybody's guess who will win at this point. I am so excited for this match, more excited than I have been in a long long time. And not even a meanie doo doo head like Barbie Doll can ruin this for me! She may have attacked me last week, but she's not gonna ruin this! I won't let her!
**~**She crossed her arms, to show she was serious.**~**
Candy: See you guys out there!!!! Good luck guys! Let's all go out to eat after, ok???
**~**She waved into the camera with a big grin on her face as the scene faded to black**~**
