"Um, Randy. I don't know if you knew or not, but um, Sara stopped by my room last night looking for you," Cody said nervously as him, Randy and Ted headed down to the hotel gym. He didn't like lying to Sara about where Randy was; she was such a sweet girl, definitely someone like Randy didn't deserve. He wished that his teammate would treat his girl better; but who was Cody to give someone like Randy Orton love advice? Cody shot Ted a look, like he wasn't sure if he should have brought up the fact that Sara had stopped by last night. Ted nodded and silently agreed that it was all right that he just told Randy that his girl has stopped by and was starting to get suspicious.

Randy stopped walking. "What did you tell her?" he demanded. Cody better not have fucked this up for him. Sara had no idea what he had been up to lately, and he intended to keep it that way. She was a good girl, and knew her place. He also intended to keep that going for them also.

"Just that, um, I hadn't seen you..." Cody said quietly. "And that you were just probably running late."

Randy nodded. Cody didn't know where he was last night, but at least the kid was smart enough to know that he should lie to Sara if she did ask if he had seen Randy. At first he had had second thoughts about teaming with the two younger guys, but they were beginning to pull their weight.

The trio walked in silence for a few minutes before Cody spoke again. "So, where were you last night?"

Randy turned his head and glared at Cody. "Not that it's really any of your business, but I was entertaining a new friend last night." He smirked as he thought back to the blonde he had picked up after the autograph signing yesterday afternoon. She was hot, and wild. Legs that went on for days and wasn't shy at all; just how he liked them. A part of him felt bad for cheating on Sara; she had been his everything for a couple of years now, but he was beginning to think that their relationship had gone stale. Sara was the perfect girlfriend, she never complained about his job, supported his career in every aspect and always had a look of adoration on her face when she looked at him. The best part was that when they went out for WWE events, she was content to just hold onto his arm and let him have the spotlight. She was perfect; but he needed something more.

"No, I understand, honey. I'll just find some of the girls and grab dinner with them," Sara said sadly into the phone. Randy had just called to cancel their dinner date tonight. This would be the second night in a row that she wouldn't be seeing her boyfriend. And the biggest disappointment was that tonight was supposed to be one of the last nights she was going to see him for a while. She was headed back to the corporate office in Stamford while he continued traveling. He had just finished his match at the arena and was supposed to be spending time with her. Why was Sara beginning to feel like Randy was leaving her on the sidelines.

"Have I ever told you how wonderful you are, baby? I really don't deserve a woman like you," he replied as he fought the urge to roll his eyes right now. Ted and Cody were standing behind him, waiting for him to get off the phone with his girlfriend so they could go out tonight.

"I love you, honey," Sara whispered.

"Love you too," he mumbled back and quickly hung up the phone. He turned to his teammates, "All right boys. The agenda tonight starts with drinks and ends with low standards and bad decisions," he said with a huge grin on his face.

Sara listened to the click of the phone on Randy's end, and sat down on the bed and started to think. Why was he acting like this lately? Was it something she had done? Was he really that focused on his career and upcoming championship opportunity that he would push her aside like this? They had been together long enough to know all of Randy's moods and how focused he could be on something when he really wanted it. "I guess the only thing I can really do right now, is just wait this out," she said out loud to no one but an empty room.

Two Weeks Later

"But, Randy," Sara cried. "I don't understand. I thought you loved me!" she sobbed as she sat on their bed watching him pack his bags and get ready to leave her.

"We've been through this. I need to focus on my career right now," he replied.

"I understand that, but why do we have to break up in order for you to do that?" she said with tears streaming down her face.

He let out a loud frustrated sigh. "I'm not going to explain this to you anymore, baby. You're a distraction. I need to focus on what's important right now-"

"I thought I was important to you!" she interrupted.

"Key word is 'was'. You were important, baby, but right now, my career, and my stable. I can't have you around distracting me-"

"So, you're saying that your job, and Ted and Cody are more important than us!" she screeched as she followed him to the door.

He turned around and smirked at her. "Yeah, I guess it is. See ya later, honey." He was just about through the door when he stopped and turned to face her again. Sara's heart picked up a little, maybe he was having second thoughts. "I'll be back in St. Louis next week. Can you make sure that all of your shit is out? Thanks baby," he said before he went all the way though the door and closed it behind him.

She stared at the door in disbelief for a few minutes before she burst into tears again. He had left her. Why? What did she do that was so wrong that would make him turn away from her like this? She let the tears fall freely down her face before another thought came to her mind. What did Ted and Cody have to do with this?
