Even The Radio

Rated T

Summary: Evan, Cody, Ted and the radio bring something to light.

Disclaimers: Do you think we'd be writing this if we actually owned any of them? Or knew any of them? HECK NO!!!

A/N: This was co-written by CentonEqualsWin and Blazing Glory on a boring Sunday afternoon. We're posting it in both places, just cause we feel like it. Please R&R to one of us when you read it!

ONWARD!!

Randy shot a death glare into the rear view mirror as Ted, Cody and Evan burst into giggles again. The past hour had been pure torture as the trio in the back had decided to make this "Pick on John and Randy Day." John sat with a death grip on the steering wheel, turning redder as the jokes got cruder.

"Oh, I know why John won't let any of us carry – carry his bags," Evan gasped out. "He's afraid if we drop it, we'll crack the lube open and it'll get all over his ring gear and he'll have to go out in front of all those people all gooey!"

Ted was rapidly turning red from laughing. "Yeah, and that little bitty key on Randy's key chain isn't for the luggage lock – it's the handcuff key!"

Not to be outdone, Cody chimed in – "Yeah, and don't steal the last of the batteries!"

The three burst into howls of laughter as John turned redder than the rental, and Randy turned to scream at them.

"Shut! The! Hell! UP!!" Randy blared, though it had no effect on their giggles. Sighing, Randy flicked on the radio. The first FM station started crooning "Nothin' On But the Radio"; the trio in the back shut up, listening to the song, before dying again. Red-faced, John flipped the station. "Bad Romance" quickly took over, followed by "Far Away", and when the next station button was pressed, "Never Gonna Let You Go" oozed into the car. Randy finally gave up and turned off the radio when "Bedrock" pounded through the speakers, glaring slightly at John, who was shaking from trying to hold in his laughs.

"See?" Cody said, after a moment of silence, broken by John's snorts of laughter, "The radio even knows the truth!"

That did it. John, Ted, Cody and Evan all screamed with laughter, while a line of red crept up Randy's face.

"Aww, don't worry; the boys are just teasing us cause they're jealous," John said, and without thinking, leaned over and planted a kiss on Randy's cheek. Everyone froze, John's eyes bugging as he realized what he just did. Ted and Evan appeared shocked and appalled, while Cody settled back into the seat, a slight smile on his face, glad that John and Randy's relationship had finally been acknowledged, at least amongst the group.
