It's a bit late, but here is the next chapter.
Thanks to all who reviewed the previous chapter.
I own Phoebe and Bailey.
Enjoy...
Ted wasn't really paying attention to what Cody was saying. They were preparing for their tag team match against MVP and Kofi Kingston. The younger Legacy member was talking to his partner while he adjusted his wrestling boots. He looked up to see Ted absently staring ahead of him and nodding slowly. Cody shook his head and playfully punched his tag partner's arm.
"Hey!" Ted exclaimed as he rubbed his arm.
"Sorry, you were distracted." Cody shrugged.
"I wasn't distracted." The other man replied defensively.
"Mm, yeah. It wouldn't be the fact that Bailey is over there." The younger Legacy member raised a brow knowingly.
Ted shrugged a little and glanced across to the red haired diva. She was talking to Batista, who was standing a little too close for Ted's liking. Cody could read his partner's expression and he broke into a smirk. He could tell that his friend was not impressed by what he saw.
"Why is she with him?" Ted frowned at the man beside her.
"Because she's his valet." Cody replied.
"Bailey is Batista's valet?" the older Legacy member asked.
"Yeah, for like the past two months." The dark haired man nodded.
"What's up?" Phoebe asked as she walked up to the tag team.
"Someone's been distracted by a certain diva." Cody told her.
"I'm guessing you did enjoy the date then?" the brunette grinned at her friend.
"I just think that Batista can be…" Ted struggled to find a word.
"Persuasive?" Cody asked.
"Oh, Teddy! You're jealous!" Phoebe grinned and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"I am not!" he replied quickly.
"Come on, we're on." Cody said, pulling him in the direction of the curtain.
The Legacy theme played out across the arena and both men walked out onto the stage. There was a chorus of boos as they made their way down the ramp and into the ring. Ted leaned against the ropes as Kofi's music hit and he appeared with his tag team partner MVP. Both men smiled as they entered the ring.
As soon as Kofi's music ended, some new theme music began. It was Batista's. The man in question appeared with his valet Bailey as they walked down the ramp and over to the announcer's table. Batista took a microphone and turned to face the men in the ring. The red haired diva stood by his side.
"Now, I'm not here to cause trouble. I wanted to check out my competition for next week. As you know, I will take on Cody in a steel cage match." Batista explained.
He handed the microphone back and walked over to the announce table as Bailey seemed more interested by the action in the ring. Ted was starting off against MVP. Both men were determined.
Ted was nervous knowing that the red haired diva was watching him. He didn't let his guard drop against MVP. Once Kofi had entered the ring he caught Ted with a sharp kick to the jaw. Ted had to rush to tag Cody. Cody entered the ring and subdued Kofi with some punches and a dropkick. Ted cheered from the ring apron as his tag partner floored the superstar with a moonsault from the top rope. As he went for the pin, MVP went to break it up, causing Ted to run and stop him with a hard clothesline.
As MVP and Ted rolled out of the ring to continue their fist fight, Cody was left to get the dazed Kofi into Cross Rhodes. He pinned the superstar and the referee counted three for the win, as the crowd booed. Ted slipped back into the ring and the referee raised his hand along with Cody's. Batista clapped unconvincingly as he slipped off his headset and walked past the ring, followed by Bailey.
"Here are your winners, Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase, the Legacy!"
Ted watched the two of them walk back up the ramp. He thought that Bailey looked beautiful. She wore tight black pants and a black lace halter-neck top with silver boots and her dyed red hair in a slick French plait. She walked with confidence as Batista took her hand and showed her off to the crowds on the way back to the curtain.
Yes, Ted was jealous.
"Well done." Phoebe said as she approached them.
"Thanks." Ted nodded.
"I can't believe Dave. He better not hurt you next week." The brunette told Cody.
"Ted's gonna be outside the cage for me." Cody shrugged.
"So will Randy." Ted added.
"And, will Bailey be there for Dave?" Phoebe asked.
"I guess so." Ted shrugged.
"You should ask her on a second date." The brunette told him.
"When?" he asked her.
"It's up to you." She replied.
Ted frowned and thought about it. He was still in his wrestling trunks, but what the Hell… He walked off in search of the red haired diva. The Legacy member eventually found her sitting on a storage box backstage. He waved at her and motioned for her to take out her earphones.
"Hey Ted." She nodded.
"Bailey, I was wondering…would you like to go on another date with me?" he asked her.
"Um, sure." She nodded and smiled.
"Great, I'm busy tomorrow, but would the day after be ok?" Ted asked.
"Suits me fine." Bailey nodded.
"I guess I'll see you then." Ted said.
"Yeah, see you then." She replied and jumped off the box.
She stood in front of Ted and leaned up to place a kiss on his cheek. She smiled and walked off down the hall. Ted smiled and touched his cheek. Did she just agree to a second date? Result!
