Chapter One: Confused!
Lainey woke up at 8:15 am, she had only slept for a few hours, before the beeping started. She rolled over smacking the alarm clock on the night stand, stopping the noise, from making another sound. She groaned, then forced herself out of bed. She rushed to take a shower and get dressed, becuase she had to be at the airport in an hour to pick up Randy.
They had met three months ago. She had went on vacation with two of her closest friends to Florida. She wasn't entirely sure who he was when she first seen him, but that soon changed when her friend Ashley, shrieked from the sight of the man. Her friend told her that he was a WWE wrestler and that he was only in town for the night. Ashley had a massive crush on Jeff Hardy, and was a huge fan of wrestling. She knew everything about Jeff, as well as Randy Orton and John Cena. They were certainly her top three out of the numerous amount of wrestlers to choose from. Her best friend Hailey, was also a fan, but wasn't as fanatic as Ashley was when it came to meeting them. Jeff was flattered by the compliments that Ashley gave and invited the girl for dinner, they started dating shortly after. She was beautiful, your typical blonde cheerleader type. She had brown eyes, was 5'8", and had a body that some girls would have starved their self for. Hailey had black hair, stood at 5'7", green eyes, and had an athletic body. She was the oldest of the three. Lainey had light brown hair with a tint of blonde, stood at 5'4", and was skinny but with big assets. Being the youngest of the trio she was the most responsible, and never took risks.
The girls had sat down with the three men, and hit it off right away. Hailey and John had exchanged numbers as well as Jeff and Ashley. Lainey on the other hand, didn't give in right away, and was surprised when Randy had called her a few days later. John had gotten her number from Hailey and then gave it to Randy. They had talked every other day since then.
Lainey drove as fast as she could, she was running late as usual. The airport was in her sight, but finding a place to park was going to be the biggest challenge. Pulling into the enormous lot, she couldn't help but feel nervous. After driving around for fifteen minutes she finally found a spot and parked. She walked through the crowded airport, but seen no sight of Randy. "I hope he didn't get impatient with me and decide to get his own ride." She thought. She searched a few more minutes, but there was still no sight of him. She was about to pull her cell out and dial his number until she heard someone shouting her named.
"Laney, over here!" The male voice was louder than the noise coming from the crowd. She turned around, and seen the most attractive man her eyes had ever seen.
"Sorry I am late." She said apologetically.
He smiled as he signed more autographs. "That's okay, the fans kept me occupied." She returned a smile, and waited until he was done. He walked over to her and wrapped his big arms around her small body. "Ready?" He asked. She nodded then the pair headed out the door. Once his bags were stuffed into the trunk of her car, they left. She sat silent, not really knowing what to say. It was so much more easier talking to him on the phone than face to face. Usually she couldn't stop talking, but now she was speechless. "You okay?" He asked with a concerned expression.
She smiled. "Yep, just fine."
He raised an eyebrow. "Really? Because you haven't hardly spoken a word."
"Sorry, how was your flight?" She asked. She didn't want this to be awkward, but that's how it was beginning to feel.
"It was good, same as always. What do you want to do today? I have a few hours after I check into the hotel, and I thought we could do something." He smiled.
She shrugged. "What do you wanna do? It is your free time and all. I don't want you to get bored, if I pick something you don't like."
"How about rock climbing? I haven't done that in awhile."
She gulped silently. "Okay... sounds great." They made it to the hotel. Randy checked in rather quickly and they went to his room. He threw his bags on the bed, and then they left. They arrived to their destination. The building was large and Lainey could only image how tall the climb was, she trembled at the thought. Randy took her hand in his and lead her in through the front doors. There were only a couple other people occupying the facility. School was still in session, so the crowd wouldn't be coming in until 4 o'clock in the afternoon. She was grateful for that. This way she could spend more time with him, without fans pushing and shoving trying to get to the superstar. Randy walked to the counter, and paid for two on the rock climb. A couple of employees escorted them to the wall. They put the harness's on and the employees checked to make sure they were securely strapped in. Then it was time to do what they had came there for. She reached for the first placement and slowly pulled herself up. She was never the athletic type, but ran a few times a week. Her upper body strength was poor, and she wished she worked out more. Randy had made it up the 100 foot wall with ease. He waited until she reached him, once at the top she relaxed for a moment.
"Have you ever climbed before?" He asked.
She shook her head. "No, this is my first time."
"You did well for a newbie, check that out." He pointed down below. She hesitated to look, but gave in, and then she froze at the distance between her and the ground. One of her hands gripped the rope, and the other held on tight to the ledge. Her body instantly closed the gap between herself and the wall. Her eyes closed and she began to take deep breaths. Randy looked back up, noticing something wasn't right with Lainey, he leaped over to her side. "What's wrong?" He placed his arm around her back, and held her in place.
"I... It's a long way down!" She whispered.
A small smile crept on his lips. "Your scared of heights!" He stated the fact.
She nodded and laid her head against the wall. "I'm sorry."
"Why are you apologizing? Most importantly, why didn't you say anything when I suggested this?"
"I wanted you to have fun, and do something that you would enjoy. So I sucked it up, and went against my fear. Besides I thought if I tried it, maybe I could face it, and I would be okay."
He kissed the top of her head. "Don't worry, I am gonna get you down. Face me, then wrap your legs around my waist, and put your arms around my neck." She did and let out a few squeals, from the movements she was making 100 feet in the air. "Now hold onto me tight, don't let go, and close your eyes." She did what he told her to do. He pushed back away from the wall with his feet, holding onto the rope behind her back. Moments later they were safely on the ground. He held her in his arms. "You okay now?"
She opened her eyes, and nodded. "Thanks, I don't know how I could of gotten through that without you." She hugged him tightly.
"Happy I could be of service, miss." They both laughed. She released Randy and he placed her on the ground, and they left.
"I guess I owe you one now!" She replied as she parked the car in front of the hotel.
He nodded with a smirk on his face. "Guess so."
They entered his hotel room. Randy laid down on the bed and Lainey sat on the edge next to him. He pulled her down, wrapped his arms around her, and kissed her on the forehead. "Why are you being shy?"
She smiled. "It was easier to talk to you on the phone, than it is face to face."
He understood. "What happened to that boyfriend of yours? I hope I don't get you into trouble for being with me."
She sighed. "We broke up."
"What happened if you don't mind me asking?"
"We weren't right for each other. He wanted the perfect little trophy wife, and I wasn't ready for that, at least not with him."
"So you didn't feel the same way about him as he did you?"
She nodded. "I loved him, don't get me wrong, but I couldn't see myself growing old with him. I just turned 21, I don't want to settle with a guy that I am not completely in love with."
He smiled. "Most girls would have screamed and jumped for joy, if their man popped the question, but you turned him down cause you knew it wasn't right for you. That was a smart decision, but I feel for the guy."
She laughed. "I feel bad dumping him right after he asked me. But I know it was the right thing to do."
"Damn right after he asked, and you told him no. That's messed up Lainey."
"Well that's when it hit me, we weren't right for each other."
He tilted his head. "How do you like being single?"
She rolled her eyes. "To be honest it's lonely, and very annoying."
"Annoying?"
"Yep, my friends have been setting me up on blind dates. Hailey arranged me for to meet this guy she knew, like the day after I broke up with Jason. I went to be nice, but it was horrible." They were silent for a few minutes before there was a knock at the door. Randy released the hold he had on her and went to see who it was.
"Hey man!" A familiar voice spoke.
Lainey rose up and sat in the previous spot she was in moments ago. Randy shut the door as Jeff and Ashley came in. He sat down and pulled the blonde into his lap in a chair by the table. Randy took a seat next to Lainey.
"Ash, I haven't heard from you in awhile. What have you been upto?" Lainey asked.
The blonde smiled. "Just been traveling with Jeff. It is amazing, seeing all these different cities. You would love it!"
"I see you have been keeping my friend happy!" She looked at Jeff.
He laughed. "You know it!"
Lainey rolled her eyes and noticed a shiny object. "Is that a ring on your finger?"
Ashley looked down and joy over took her face. "Yes, we got married last week, I am so happy." She planted a light kiss on Jeff's lips.
Lainey smiled. She had never seen her friend so happy before. But she couldn't help to think this relationship was going rather fast. "Were they really ready to commit so soon?" She thought.
"Wow that's awesome. You didn't think to invite your friends?"
Jeff kissed Ashley's hand. "We were going to wait a couple years. But we were in Vegas, and figured why the hell not. It was a quick decision. No one was there except for us, Matt, and of course the people that ran the place."
"Well, congratulations then." She wasn't very convincing, but tried her best.
"Yeah, I can tell your super thrilled for me!" Ash retorted.
"I am, it's just... Jason asked me to marry him a few weeks ago. I said no, then broke up with him."
Ashley sported a shocked expression. "Really? Oh my, you guys have been together for three years. Why did you do that?"
"Ash, we weren't right for each other. He was ready to spend the rest of his life with me, but I didn't feel the same way as he did."
"How many times did you tell me, if he were to ask you, you would say yes without hesitation?"
Lainey sighed. "A lot, but when he did, something hit me,he wasn't the one."
Ashley was right, Lainey would have said yes, three months ago. But this was now and she knew something was up with her friend. She wanted to know what was going on. She got up from Jeff's lap and said she needed to speak with Lainey about something private. Lainey followed her friend into the hall, once the door was shut, she started with the questions. "What the hell is going on with you?"
Lainey sat on the floor and leaned back against the wall. "I don't know. I have been so confused the last couple months."
"I know what your problem is, it's Randy fucking Orton."
Lainey looked up with a confused expression. "Seriously, you think it's because of him."
"Duh! You were so sure about things with Jason until you started talking to Randy."
"You know what, your right. For the past few weeks, I have been driving myself crazy thinking why in the hell did I give up a good thing. I had all these mixed feelings, and now I know what it is." A smile spread across the brunettes face.
Ashley shook her head. "Oh no, don't tell me that your in love with Randy Orton."
Lainey nodded. "I think so. How can I be in love with someone, I haven't been around that much? Given we talk on the phone, a lot. What am I going to do?" She put her head in her hands.
"What's going on?" A female said.
"Lainey is in love with Randy!" Ashley blurted.
Hailey sat down next to Lainey. "Really? When did this happen?" She threw her hands up, not exactly sure when it happened. She told her best friend, what she had just told Ashley. Hailey laughed. "Damn, so basically, you broke up with your boyfriend of three years, for a guy you have only known for three months?" Lainey nodded. "OK, does Randy know?" Hailey asked.
"He knows everything, except for how I feel about him." She took in a deep breath. "This is so fucking messed up!" Lainey shouted.
"Hey now, what' going on?" The muscular male asked.
"Nothing!" Lainey replied knowing who it was.
"Nothing my ass." Ashley spouted. "She is..." Hailey covered her mouth, before another word was spoken.
"Okay, none of my business, I get it!" John said as he stuck his hands up. The rest of the day went smoothly. All six of them went out for lunch together, and then took showers to get ready for the show later that night.
