Friends?

-We weren't supposed to hate each other-

-We were supposed to be friends-

Cody Rhode's POV:

"Staring at Randy won't help the major boner in your pants bud." I snapped back to reality and looked down at my pants and back up at my friend Ted. I blushed and looked away from Randy. I am supposed to be paying attention to Mr. McMahon as he speaks at the front of the room. Instead I'm looking at Randy. "You'll never get a chance dude" Ted said again. I frowned at him. "Come on Ted, quit deflating my happiness." Ted leaned over and whispered "You know it's true, Codes. You'll never get a chance with him. He hates you, remember?"

"Don't remind me" I whispered. Mr. McMahon shooed us out of the big assembly room. On my way out the door with Ted, I got caught in between a scramble of people and ended up bumping into Randy. "Sorry." Randy looked at me and said "Just get out of my sight, Rhodes." I met back up with Ted in the parking lot as I was getting ready to go home. "Are you satisfied with your little encounter with Randy?"
"That was not just your regular everyday encounter Ted. We butted heads back there." He chuckled and said "I told you to stay away from him Codes."

"A man can dream Ted."

Randy Orton's POV:

Cody Rhodes….he doesn't understand that he should stay away from the 'Viper'. It's obvious that the poor kid likes me but it's obvious that I don't. BUZZZZ. My phone vibrated on the countertop, bringing me out of my thoughts. "Hello, this is Randy."

"Randy! Wanna go to a club tonight with a few buddies of mine? There'll be girls!" Oh John…

"Sure man, I'd love too! Who's all coming along?"

"Some of my old buddies. JoMo, The Hardy's, etc."

"Sounds like fun. I will be there." I hung up and sat down on the couch. My phone lit up with a text message.

By the way Randy…..The whole WWE Roster might join as well. –John

Ok cool John. Thanks for telling me. –RKO

You're welcome. -John

I put my phone down again and turned on the TV.

Cody Rhode's POV:

I looked in the mirror. I look absolutely dashing. I tightened up my tie a little more before walking out of the bathroom and into the living room of Ted's house. "Ready to go to the club, Ted?"

"Heck yes. Let's go man." He hopped up from his seat on the couch and walked out the door.

Ted and I walked into the club and were greeted by our fellow WWE Employees. I paid no attention to them. The person that I had my eye on was Randy. I was looking for him. I scanned the dark club and found him sitting at the bar with John and the Hardy Boys. I walked over and sat at the bar, while acting like I didn't see Randy and his buddies sitting only seats away from me.
