"Codes"

Chapter 1

I, Cody Garrett Runnels, woke up to the sound of my annoying alarm clock. I groaned looking over at the clock noticing that I had over slept. Jumping up out of the bed I ran into the bathroom jumping in the shower. By the time my shower and hair were finished I only had fifteen minutes until Randy was suppose to be there. So, I hurried over to my dresser and pulled out my dark blue underwear and a white polo shirt. Throwing them on I walked over to the closet and got out my dark blue jeans.

"Cody your ride is here." my mom yelled from down stairs.

"Okay, be right there." I replied running down the stairs and grabbed my notebook. "Love you, Mom." I said and kissed her on the cheek. I could hear her say 'I love you too, sweetie.' before I closed the front door.

I smiled seeing two of my close friends, Evan Bourne and Randy Orton. I opened the back door and pretended to pout, "Aw Randy why did you have to go get Evan first? I wanted to sit up front."

Randy just laughed, "I could get in the back." Evan said looking back to where I was sitting.

"No, sit up here with me." Randy said then smiled over at Evan.

"Yeah I was just aggravating Randy." I said.

The rest of the ride to the school was filled with music and our off-key singing.

When we walked into the cafeteria, I looked around for all my friends. Looking back at Randy and Evan I just realized what they were wearing. Randy had on a light gray t-shirt with some weird design and dark denim blue jeans, and Evan had on a light green v-neck t-shirt and a pair of blue jeans.

There were not that many kids in here because in the mornings, you have an option either to go to the gym or in here and all of my friends come in here. In addition, some of the kids just sit outside in their cars until the bell rings for class.

I looked back to the other students hearing my name being called and found the table with all my friends sitting at it. I sat down beside TJ Wilson and Randy sat beside me with Evan on his other side. I looked around to see who all was here so far and Nattie, TJ, Kelly, Justin, and John were here.

John Cena smirked over at me, "Hey, Codes, don't look now but I believe you would like to know who just came through the door."

TJ made a confused face and looked over to the door, "It's just Ted, what does he

have to do with Cody?"

Randy laughed and nudged me in the side, "You gonna tell him?"

I nodded then turned toward TJ, getting ready to explain why everyone was acting like this. "Well when you were on vacation we all went swimming a lot at the public pool and Ted was a lifeguard."

"That doesn't explain why he has anything to do with you." TJ said with a confused look on his face.

I laughed a little, "I'm getting there. He actually talked to me a little bit and I kind of like him." I said and looked down at the table because I could feel my cheeks heating up.

TJ chuckled, "So you like Ted DiBiase?" I nodded, "But you don't even talk to him. How are you ever gonna get anywhere?"

I thought for a minute, "I'll somehow get into his group of friends and then we will become friends."

"How are you gonna get into his group of bully friends your small, Codes. They would just beat you up that's why we stay away from them." TJ said.

"I'm not sm-" I was cut off by Nattie Neidhart.

Nattie finally decided to butt in and help the me out, "Why don't you try to pull him away from his friends and slowly become his friend when none of them are around?'

"That could work, but I don't want to be his secret friend I want people to know." I said looking over to where Ted had sat down with Mike Mizanin, Stephen Farrelly, and Zack Ryder, the bullies of the school. 'I don't even know why he hangs out with them, he's not mean like them he just stands by when they do something to someone he doesn't even get in it at all.' I thought with a sigh.

"You'll figure something out Cody, you always do." Kelly said. Her real name is Barbie Blank but she likes to go by Kelly, 'I'm not even sure where she got Kelly from.'

"Will someone throw this away?" Nattie asked.

I stood up and took her plate saying, "I will."

I walked across the room to the trashcans they have set up at the other side by the cashiers and the lunch lines. I threw away Nat's plate, turned walking a few steps looking at my feet until I ran into something hard, and fell to the floor on my ass.

I looked up stammering out an apology, "I-I'm sorry I wasn't looking where I was going, Ted?" I blushed finally processing who was standing above me.

Ted smiled down at me and offered his hand to help me up, "It's okay Cody, it's just as much my fault as it is yours."

I smiled shyly and took his offered hand. It was smooth but rough at the same time and slightly bigger than mine was. My heart started speeding when I felt him wrap his fingers around mine. "Th-Thanks." I whispered when I was standing and he dropped my hand to my side. I started rubbing around on my back and butt trying to make sure there wasn't any trash or dirt on me.

"Turn around." Ted said.

I looked up at him; I have to because he is about two inches taller than I am. "What?"

He smiled, "Turn around and I'll see if there's anything on you."

I blushed and slowly turned my back to him. I stood there for a few seconds with him just looking at me. Finally, I looked over my shoulder and he was still looking at me, "Is there anything there?" I asked.

He continued looking at me for a second then looked up at my face, "Huh? Oh. No you're good."

"Um. Okay. Thanks again." I said and hurriedly walked over to my friends who were all staring at me with knowing smirks on their faces.

I sat back down between TJ and Randy and they where all still smirking at me. "What?"

TJ busted out laughing then when he could control the laughter he smirked and said. "Ted was checking out your ass."

My face turned red, "N-No he wasn't, he was just seeing if I had dirt on me."

"No, Codes, it would just take a second to do that, he was staring at your ass, trust me." Randy said, "But it's nothing to be ashamed of at least now we know he likes your

ass."

"No he wasn't he was just helping me. Just drop it okay." I said and laid my head down on my crossed arms that were on the table.

Randy rubbed my back, "We're sorry, Cody. We won't say anything about it again."

I jumped up from my seat when I heard the bell ring, "Well I'll see you guys in class I guess." I said and walked out of the room quickly.

I looked down at my schedule, that the school mailed me and every other student that goes here, and groaned because I have gym first block.

When I got to the gym, there were only a few kids in there and I either didn't know them or I didn't talk to them so I just sat down on the bleachers.

I watched everyone walk in hoping that one of my friends would come in. I looked down for a second then back up at the door right as Ted walked in.

The air caught in my throat and my heart started racing, I quickly got my notebook out, started writing, and pretended I didn't even see him and that I was very busy.

I sat writing until the teacher came in. He made us go stand in a specific spot on the gym floor. Since Ted's names and mine, where so different I was nowhere near him.

After the teacher took roll, everyone played basketball except a few people, one being myself, sat in the bleachers.

I randomly doodled in my notebook until something jumped up in the bleacher beside me. I looked over and it was a basketball. "Hey Cody. Can you throw me that?" I looked over to where the voice was coming from, it belonged Ted.

I picked the ball up and tossed it to him and he easily caught it. He smiled and said 'Thanks.' I smiled back shyly. "Your welcome."

After that, I went back to writing mindlessly and did not notice until the bell rung that I had written Ted's name all over the page.

I got up and walked out into the hall looking at my schedule again seeing that I have Math next.

I walked into my math class and sat by the windows in the middle of the roll. Evan came in with Justin, they sat down behind me, and some person I do not know sat in front of me.

Justin was dressed in a grey v-neck t-shirt with an open sleeveless leather jacket and black skinny jeans. The person in front of me was wearing a black button up and dark jeans.

The teacher came in and told us we could sit where ever we wanted and that class would start tomorrow. Therefore, we were allowed to sit and talk.

I turned around to talk to Evan who had turned his desk side ways so he could talk to both Justin and myself.

"Hey Justin, I heard a rumor about you. Would you care to tell me if it's true?" Evan asked looking at Justin with his signature grin.

Justin looked somewhat nervous but answered anyway. "Umm. Sure." he said hesitantly.

Evan grinned more. "Well everyone is saying that you and Kelly are dating."

Justin's eyes lit up at the mention of Kelly's name. "Yeah, we've been dating since the beginning of summer break." he said then had a thinking look on his face. "So who do you like, you never told me."

My eyes lit up at hearing that Evan liked someone. "Yeah, Evvy tell us who you like."

Evan blushed and looked down ay his hands on his desk. "N-No I don't like anyone."

Justin and I looked at him and laughed. "Yeah you may say that, but your blush says something else." I said. "Come on you know who I like."

Evan sighed and looked from my eyes to Justin's eyes. "I can't tell you yet. Just please wait I'll tell y'all in my own time."

"Okay." Justin said and nodded his head.

I heard the kid in the desk in front of me mumbled something. I turned back to him. "What did you say?"

The kid looked shocked that I actually heard him. "N-Nothing."

"Oh. Well, oh…Kay. I'm Cody." I said to him with a smile and turned to my friends. "This is Evan and Justin. And you are?"

"I-I'm Alex Riley." the blonde, Alex, said looking between us.

I smiled. "Well sit with us at lunch and we will introduce you to the rest of the group."

Alex looked somewhat stressed, "Um…I'm not very good with meeting new people." he said shaking his head.

"It's okay, you'll fit right in." Evan said.

The bell rung and I stood up, "Just find me at lunch, Kay?" I said to Alex.

He thought for a second, "Okay."

I nodded and walked out looking at my schedule. I have art next.

I walk into the art classroom and see Randy and John sitting in the desks. John was sitting beside Randy and was wearing a white button up and dark blue jeans.

"Hey guys." I said and they both smiled and turned toward me.

"Hey Codes." John said as Evan walked in and sat in front of Randy. 'I wonder why he sat in front of Randy instead of behind me.' I thought with a smirk.

"Hey Alex! Come sit beside me!" I said as Alex walked through the door. He smiled shyly at me and then went over and sat behind John. My breath hitched as I saw Ted walk through the door. I shook my head and turned towards my friends. "Guys, this is Alex Riley." I said gesturing toward Alex. "And Alex this is Randy Orton and John Cena." I said.

John smiled and his dimples showed, "Hi Alex."

"H-Hey." Alex said and blushed. I smiled. 'That's cute it looks like Alex has a crush on John.' I thought and glanced over to the other side of the room were Ted had sat

down.

"So did you just move here?" John asked obviously checking him out, but he did not notice.

"Y-Yeah, I used to live in Virginia." Alex said, his face getting red.

When John was about to answer the teacher walked in and went to the front of the room.

"Okay class your first assignments will be to draw your partner, and I'm picking them. So when y'all are done I will know how much work we have to do." she said and got out a piece of paper. "You're going to have assigned seats and they will be with your partner."

Most of the class groaned as she started calling out who sat with whom and I looked up hearing my name then I literally stopped breathing when I heard Ted's name being called out next. I slowly got up and walked over to where the teacher was pointing to then sat down. Then Ted sat down in front of me.

Randy and Evan were paired together and they sat beside us, with Randy sitting beside Ted and Evan in front of him. John and Alex also were paired together. John had to sit by Randy and Alex sat beside Evan.

I looked up at Ted, as the teacher explained that we had to get together with our partner outside of school and get to know them, and noticed what he was wearing. He had on a dark grey button up with the sleeves rolled up to his elbow and kind of light blue jeans.

When I looked over at Randy he was grinning at me, I shook my head and turned back toward Ted at the sound of movement. He turned around to face me, I blushed and looked over at Randy. Randy was looking at me again and he pointed to me then Ted and made a heart with his hands mouthing what I thought was 'How sweet.'

My blush darkened and I quickly glanced to see if Ted had seen but he was watching my face not Randy. "Shut up." I said turning back to Randy.

"What? I didn't say anything." Ted said, causing me to turn back to him.

"I wasn't talking to you." I said worrying my bottom lip.

Ted smiled at me and I smiled back a little shyly. "Then who where you talking to?"

"Randy."

"Oh, did he do something?" Ted asked me. I shook my head and looked down at the desk. "You okay?"

"Yeah, it's just that I'm not really used to talking to you so I don't know what to say." I said ducking my head more as my blush got worse.

He grinned and chuckled a little bit. "That's okay, just be yourself. We're suppose to get to know each other and you're going to have to spend some time with me cause we gotta draw each other."

"I know." I said then looked back up at him.

"Okay, class some groups will be drawing your partners head and some will be doing a full body picture." the teacher said as she walked around passing out the papers explaining what we are suppose to do.

She handed each group one piece of paper and went back to the front of the room. "Y'all will have one month to complete this project. Now start mingling with your partners." she said and threw her hands up.

Ted read over the paper and gave it to me. I read it then said. "I think I'm gonna go get my nose pierced."

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Ted asked, looking confused.

I blushed looking up at him, "Sorry…I was thinking out loud." I bit my bottom lip, "I may not even get it done."

Ted smiled. "It's okay, get one if you want one."

"But won't people think I'm gay." I said and slapped my hands over my mouth. 'Shit I need to shut up.' I yelled in my head.

Ted thought for a minute, "I don't know, some jerks might say it to be assholes, but I doubt anyone will think anything of it."

"Like your friends."

Ted sighed, "Yeah they might but I could vouch for you."

I shook my head, "No, I can take up for myself."

"I'm not saying you can't, but I-" he shut his mouth when I held up my hand.

I smiled slightly, "You don't have to I don't care what they think. Plus they might think you're fucking me cause you took up for me." I said and slapped my mouth again. 'Shit. I did not just say that.' I thought my face getting red, "Please forget I ever said that."

Ted laughed, "Umm. Alright I doubt they would think that. But then again you never know." Ted said with a smirk and took the paper turning around in his desk.

'What the fuck is that supposes to mean?' I though as the bell rang.

Okay guys, I'm stopping it there.
