Author's note: YAY, lookie. This is going to be my chaptered ficcy~~ I really hope you guys like it and wish that I didn't screw it up too badly. I'm sorry that it is not as long as the usual fics that other writers write cause I'm kinda on a busy schedule with 9 subjects in school and netball. Oh, and this is dedicated to doorist, my first reviewer! CodyRhodesFan and Neroanne 2 of my favourite writers on the site and left such awesome reviews on my first ficcy!
" Come on Cody, we have to do this, you know that already don't you?" Ted pointed out.
Cody whispered back " But you didn't say it had to be Randy."
"But it has to be! Don't you get it, attacking Randy and stripping him of the chance to gain the title is the perfect opportunity for us to shine in the WWE! Once we proceed with the attack we'll get a guaranteed storyline for sure." Ted bluntly pointed out, "At this point there is no candidate better than Orton for us to take advantage of, do you want to stay hidden in the shadows or even worse, given the pink skip and told to leave? Do you Cody, do you want that to happen to us? Do you want to end up like people such as Kung Fu Naki and slowly fade away into nothingness?"
At this point, Ted was frustrated, his wrestling boots making clip clop sounds as they scuffed against the rough surface of the locker room floor due to the amount of pacing Ted was doing, his face was blotched a tomato red as he tried to make Cody see through his point of view. "
He reached for Cody's shoulders, pulling him roughly to face him, and saw the silver lines tears had flowed down his cheeks. At the sight, his tone softened, " This isn't about you anymore Codes, it isn't about your schoolboy crush on Orton. Its about our future, our careers and what impact we will have on the world. There can always be another Randy, there cannot be another chance as great as this one to create a marvelous career and break new ground in this line of work!"
"But I don't think I can do it. Why can't we just interrupt his match and get him disqualified?" Cody pathetically tried to offer a life line for himself. He did not, no, could not bring himself to attacking Randy, nonetheless strip him of the chance to become champion. Cody knew how much the title meant to Randy, he seen the pride and joy in Randy's eyes when he held it and even though he never cared or even talked to Cody, Cody still felt the fierce protectiveness to protect Randy from anything that hurt him. "Because it would not be enough impact! Cody, listen to me, we are going to go out there and smash Orton with a head shot using a chair. You can do it," Ted said with a finality, " and you will."
Cody raised his eyes to meet Ted's and for a long time they just stared at each other. Ted watched fresh tears well up, break and spill over. Burying Cody in the warmth of his arms, " Come on Cody," he whispered. "I'm only doing this for us, for you."
"Are you?" Cody uttered uncertainly through his chapped lips, his voice breaking halfway.
Ted pulled him up into a standing position. " I want us to be successful," he said. "And besides," he added grinning like a mischievous cat, " you can do much better than that Orton. You know he already has that glitter bunny John Morrison hanging off his dick every moment of the day. We'll find someone better for you. I want you to have nothing but the best, Cody, you're my best friend, don't let me down. I want you to be the most controversial superstar in this business. I want you to live like a king." Ted started to lead him out of the locker room door.
"What about what I want?" Cody whispered, so soft that even he could not clearly hear himself.
