Chapter 3:
As I drove back to my hotel room, I kept replaying in my head how stupid I could have been to get emotionally caught up with Randy Orton, and to boot let someone catch us. I was letting my judgment be clouded by my crush that I had always had on Randy Orton. I had watched wresting since I was a little girl, but the minute that I saw Randy's first appearance I was a fan. I sighed… I have to be professional, because I am his boss.
My phone started to ring as I plopped down on queen sized bed in my room. I looked down at my blackberry, and saw it was my sister Elizabeth. I smiled to myself answering it.
"Hey Lizzy!"
"Hey, I was just calling to tell you that I caught the show tonight, and that was amazing! You are brilliant!" I giggled at my little sister's flattery.
"Well I try" I sighed "So tell me what's new with you and how is law school coming along?" I heard and immediately groan.
"The only thing new with me is that I have no social life. I so many case files to work on before my internship, and I don't even know where that is going to be yet, because I haven't heard from any of the major law firms I wanted." I could sense the panic in her voice. I wanted to talk to Lizzy about my predicament, but how could I she already had a lot on her plate. I'll have to wait until she is more relaxed.
"Wow take a breath" she took a deep breath "Now try and relax, I'll call you tomorrow and we can talk more."
"Ok bye Jam!"
"Bye Lizzy"
I hung up the phone shaking my head, even when my sister is upset she still comes across as perky. I loved that about her, because she found the good in everyone and everything, and never afraid to smile. I on the other hand am more sensible, and usually try to be more cautious.
After I'd fallen asleep, it seemed like my head just hit the pillow when I'd heard my ringtone waking me up. I immediately jumped up in a panic at hearing the loud noise so early. I looked at my clock and it read; 7:02am. I groaned before answering my phone. I didn't recognize the number so I figured it was about business.
"Hello, Jamie Montgomery?" I tried to hide the sleepy tone in my morning voice.
"Jamie, this is Randy… Randy Orton!" I felt my heart skip a beat as I waited to hear more. "I didn't wake you did I?"
"Randy?" I asked still unsure and trying to remember if I had given him my number, and not realized it.
"Yea, I got your number from the WWE roster that you sent out last night in an e-mail." I smiled to myself shaking my head. That's right. After I'd spoken with Lizzy I couldn't sleep so I took it upon myself to e-mail the WWE roster an updated contact sheet for emergencies. I loved organization, and structure, and being prepared.
"Oh… right! I like organization, and I figured since there wasn't any structure to a call list or emergency numbers this was a good idea." I was nervous, and I babble when I am nervous. Why was it that he had this kind of effect on me? "Was there something you needed Randy?" I heard him lightly chuckle.
"Actually, I wanted to know if you were still in New York."
"Yea, I haven't checked out yet" I was curious.
"Good, because I was wondering If you'd like to get a cup of coffee with me at the Starbucks down the street from the arena?" was he asking me out? I was at a loss for words because my brain couldn't interpret, and my heart was beating so loud… it was practically screaming at me.
"Are you asking me out?" I blurted out before I could say anything else. The line was silent for a minute, and I felt like an idiot.
"Yes, Jamie I am trying to ask you out. That was my intention." He sounded almost nervous.
"Oh… well" I wanted to scream YES! But I was his boss, and I can't get caught or involved with one of my superstars. I could just imagine Vince lecturing me on it now.
"Please don't say no!" He was actually really sweet. "Just come out with me and have a cup of innocent coffee. We can talk and then you can decide if you want to go on a date with me." Why was he trying so hard? I had to know why, if this was a ploy like Wade Barrett was trying to do, or was he genuinely interested? "Come on Jamie, don't leave me hanging." I heard his teasing voice, and I couldn't contain a giggle escape my lips.
"Ok, I'll meet you for coffee, but that's all it is for now…ok?"
"That's all I ask, hear me out." I was starting to get a little nervous. "I'll meet you there in a half an hour"
"Sounds good"
We both hung up and I just sat there on the edge of the bed in shock.
I quickly pulled myself out of the bed and put on a teal sundress, and tan flats on, and pulled my hair up into a neat pony tail. After I lightly did my makeup I got in my car and drove down the block to Starbucks coffee house.
I walked in the door, and looked around, seeing him sitting at a corner table for two. He was wearing a black dress shirt, and a pair of jeans. He spotted me, and waved me over toward him. Well, here goes nothing I thought, making my way over to him.
"Good Morning!" he said to me as I took a seat across from him.
"Good Morning Randy!" I smiled and stared at the coffee cup in his hand. I pointed to the cup. "So what are you drinking?"
Peppermint mocha late" He smirked. "Would you like a sip?" I blushed at the invitation. I shook my head no.
"Thank you, but no. I really shouldn't drink that"
"If you're going to say something next about calorie content, or cooties I might have to just get up and leave." I saw the teasing expression playing at his lips. I laughed.
"No, it's not that at all, It's just I'm lactose intolerant. If I drink your late I could get really sick." I was so embarrassed I hated mentioning that fact about myself to people. I smiled trying ot put him at ease. "Yea, you probably wouldn't guess it from how I look but I rarely eat anything healthy. I have the metabolism that every girl dreams of having."
"Is that so?" He reached out and grabbed my hand that was sitting folded on the table. I looked up at him right away. I was panicking and my hands were sweaty. I pulled it back and stood up nervously.
"I'm going to go get myself a drink, I'll be right back" he nodded, and I tried to control my composure.
I ordered a vanilla soy late, and a blueberry scone, and made my way back to the table.
"Randy" I looked over at him with my serious face. "I have to know… why did you ask me out?"
He looked back at me but he just smiled.
"I asked you out because I like you, I want to get to know you"
"You don't even know me?"
"Hence the getting to know you part" he chuckled.
"I'm your boss" I said low, but just low enough for him ot hear.
"I know this, and I understand you don't want to lose your job, or get in trouble with Vince, but there have been relationships with in the company before… Paul actually is a big one. He married Stephanie!" I nodded.
"That's true." I looked up at him, and sighed. "last night when we kissed…" I paused
"Jamie, I felt something that I'd never felt before when I kissed you. I'm not saying this as a pick up line, but because it actually scared me." I jumped in shock
"My kiss was scary?" this is so not what I wanted to hear.
"That came out wrong, it scared me because I found myself wanting to get to know you and be around you. The first time before I even knew who you were I wanted to find you again, and now I think we should give it a shot." I took in his words, really thinking about it.
"I think I should tell you, before I got this job here, I was a big fan… of yours" I blushed when I saw the look on his face. It was amusement, and satisfaction.
"That is adorable"
"I had no idea, that meeting you, you would be this…"
"Charming? Incredible? Perfect?" I laughed
"Yea" I nodded, still smiling at him. "My answer is yes, but you have to promise to take it really slow, I don't want any un necessary media or drama, especially at work."
"I understand, I won't do anything you don't want me to do"
All of a sudden I felt the presence of someone standing at our table. I looked up to see John Cena. He had a big grin on his face. We both looked over at him.
"So, how's the date between you two love birds going?" I immediately turned to glare at Randy.
"Ok… ok.. I told John. He's my best friend. There are no secrets between us." I turned my frown into a grin.
"That's cute", John pulled up a chair and sat with us.
"It is not cute, take that back!" Randy defended. John and I both laughed at him.
The three of us spent the next hour talking, laughing, and having a good time over simple coffee. I had no idea if this was going to work out between Randy and I, but I had to give it a try. This is turning out to be a quite interesting adventure, since I signed my contract.
