Randy Orton was standing backstage listening to John Cena make a fool of himself. He smiled. John knew how to get the crowd on his side whether they liked him or not. John walked up the ramp and started backstage. Randy knew this would be his only chance to tell his best friend goodbye and good luck.
John walked by the men and women of the WWE. They were all clapping for him. When he reached the end he caught sight of the legend killer. He smiled and turned to face Randy. Randy walked over to him afraid he might break into tears at any moment. John stuck out his hand for Randy to take. Randy did and they pulled each other into a hug. Just the night before John had whispered to Randy that he loved him. Randy had been speechless. Tonight would be different.
"I'm going to miss you, bud." John whispered.
"Me too. I love you, JC." Randy whispered just as softly
John pulled back and smiled at Randy before letting go completely. Randy took a step back and watched John leave the arena. Randy sighed and waited for the cameras to shut off before he slipped away to find John.
John was leaning against the side of the arena sobbing softly. Randy walked over to him and hugged him tight. John broke down even harder. Randy just held him close. John finally pulled himself together and laughed softly, "I must look like hell."
"You look like shit, but that's nothing new." Randy joked.
"I should kick your ass for that remark." John laughed again and pushed at Randy's chest, but Randy didn't let the shorter man go. John looked up and smiled, "So what you said earlier…"
"About loving you?" Randy asked.
"Yeah…" John nodded, "Did you really mean it?"
Randy smiled and hugged John tighter, "I don't say things I don't mean, Cena. You should know that by now."
"I was just checking, Ortz. Just checking." John leaned into the younger man with a smile plastered to his beautiful face.
I'm thinking of writing a short drabble like this for all of my favorite couples. If I do, the next couple will be Cody/Ted
