I want to give a big shout out to everyone that has read the story so far. I want to send a special 'Thank You' to ., psion53, ur-only-hope, AngelsDestiny22, adb226 and BatistaPrincess. You guys rock! \m/ (.) \m/ Here is chapter 2. Enjoy!

We got lucky this week. Randy and Legacy were filming a cut scene and the production crew had brought in one of the long black leather couches. The scene was supposed to be Randy taunting the new to Legacy, Fallon.

A few weeks earlier, Fallon had been 'won'. The match was between Evan Borne and Cody Rhodes. Evan and Fallon had been in an on-screen couple until Evan messed with Legacy. The match was just supposed to be Cody versus Evan but you know Legacy, Ted DiBiase had to get involved. Now Fallon was 'property' of Randy Orton and Legacy.

It was logical that Randy, Fallon, Ted and Cody were sharing the locker room but I got lucky enough to hang out too. I just called myself being a good personal assistant. Some of the assistants had three or four Superstars/Divas that they had to keep up with. Me, I just had two. I was the PA for Ted DiBiase and Cody Rhodes. I was the one who made sure that they caught their flights, made it to the arena on time. I followed them to their signings/appearances and pretty much made sure that everything they needed, work related, was taken care of.

I was sitting on the far end of the couch with my back against the arm and my legs draped over Ted's. He was reading the script for tonight and stroking the side of my calf with the back of his forefinger. He was doing it absentmindedly, but I was used to it.

The other end of the sofa was dominated by Randy and Fallon. Randy was tucked into the corner with Fallon lounging in his lap, reading some magazine. I was transferring the future travel dates into my planner and phone so I had their schedule read to go. I was drawn out of my concentration by Randy.

"You can't just keep ignoring me like this Fallon." He curled a piece of her hair around his finger as she tried to shrug him off. He skimmed a fingertip down the side of her neck. "You know I'm not easily deterred." I grinned to myself as I recognized the dialogue from the script. Fallon shrugged again. I saw Ted shake his head, silently laughing at Randy. "That's it Fallon!" Randy wrapped his arm tighter around her and pulled her closer. He tossed her magazine to the floor near Cody's feet where he was sitting in a folding chair playing a game on his phone. Fallon started giggling as Randy nibbled at her neck.

Both Ted and I groaned as they started wiggling on their end of the couch. We both put down what we were doing.

"Geeze. You two need to get a room." I groaned.

"Please. God, I just ate. I don't want to see that." Ted added. I laughed.

"Ha ha. You two aren't funny." Randy said, giving Fallon's neck one last kiss before settling back in the chair. "So, I was talking to Steph the other day," (Stephanie McMahon was the acting GM and head creative writer for RAW), "and she thinks that Fallon's character should latch on to someone in Legacy." Ted nodded agreeing.

"That's a good idea." Cody said, never once looking up from his game.

"It should be Randy." I added. "It should be like she has Stockholm Syndrome or something like that Fal should totally get 'attached' to Randy since he's the one that's 'keeping' her."

"What a stupid idea." Cody spoke up again. Great, here we go.

"Shut up, Rhodes." I spat back. He set his phone down in his lap.

"How the hell would you know what would be good for the show anyway?"

"I'm a fan, dipshit. I know what I'd like to see." He sat forward in his chair. He smirked at me.

"Ha. You know what you really are?" I swung my feet out of Ted's lap and faced Cody.

"No, why don't you tell me." Sensing that there was about to be an argument, like normal, between Cody and I, both Ted and Randy tried to step in.

"Code, come on." Ted said, putting a hand on my shoulder.

"Cody, man, leave Emery alone." Randy tried. I held up my hand, stopping them.

"No. I wanna hear what he has to say." I looked back over at Cody, mimicking his position in his chair. "So," I held my arms out open, "what am I?"

"You're a lowly leach. You attach yourself to someone, this time its Fallon, and hang on. You hope that someone will notice you and give you everything. You're a pathetic excuse for a PA and I can't for the life of me figure out how you got this job. You're a worthless waste of space." Ouch. This time his rant really hurt. Normally, I just let the stupid shit he says roll off my back. But this time, it dug in deep. I stood up with tears stinging my eyes.

"You're an asshole." I said quietly. Cody leaned back in his seat.

"You're just pissed cause the truth hurts." I felt Ted stand up behind me.

"That's enough! Back off Cody!" Ted said. Cody just smiled.

"Still the truth though, huh Emery?"

"Fuck you Rhodes." I turned and stormed out of the locker room with Ted right on my heals. When the door closed, Ted wrapped his arm around my shoulders and pulled me close. I leaned into him.

"Come on Em. Let's go hide in catering." I nodded. We made our way through the maze of the backstage, finally finding an empty catering. Thank God. Ted led me over to a table in the back. I sat down as he got me a bottle of water and a couple of napkins. He sat down beside me as I wiped at the couple of tears that were trying to escape. Ted slipped his arm back around me, tucking me against him. He laid his cheek against the top of my head.

"I'm sorry Emery." He said quietly. I sniffed.

"Sorry for what?"

"I'm sorry Cody treats you like that. I don't know why he's like that." I snuggled in closer to his chest.

"It's okay Teddy. I don't know why I let it bother me. It just eggs him on."

"That's true." He softly stroked my back while we enjoyed the silence of the empty room. "This is nice Em." Ted said quietly against my temple. I nodded.

"It is. Its nice to be alone, just the two of us. Without anyone staring or bothering us."

"Yeah." He kissed my temple. "I wish it could be like this all the time."

"Yeah, me too." He kissed my temple again. I went to wrap my arms around him when we heard some one coming into catering. We broke apart quickly. I stood up and threw my napkins away. "Come on. We'd better get back." Ted nodded in agreement. He handed me my bottle of water and we headed out. We waved at Maryse and Gail as they walked in.

I went to grab the handle to open the door to the locker room but froze as it swung open, revealing Cody standing in the doorway. He smirked down at my 5'5" height.

"Come back so I can tell you what else I think?" He said. Instead of tears this time, I got anger. He stepped sideways to let me walk in. As he turned, I placed both hands on his hard chest. I shoved, catching him off guard, as hard as I could, slamming him into the open door. I got in his face as much as I could.

"Why do you have to be such a fuckin' asshole? What did I ever do to you, huh? I'm tired of your shit. But if you got something else to say, by all means go ahead and say it." Cody stared at me in complete shock. "That's what I thought." I started to walk away. "Go fuck yourself, Rhodes." I walked straight into the shower area and slammed the door behind me.

I would really appreciate if you keep the reviews coming. I need to know if you guys are still liking it. Please take a couple of seconds and let me know how I'm doing. Thanks! =^.^=
