It had been three days since Randy broke up with Catlin. He was devastated. He was glad he had his work at a time like this. He'd pretty much kept quiet for the last three days. Randy was at the arena walking down the hall.
"Hey Randy." John said catching up to him.
"Hey."
"What's up?"
"Nothing." "Caitlin won't stop blowing up my phone." "I'm thinking about changing my number." "I'm just glad I'm getting Alanna this weekend to take my mind off of things."
"Hey wanna go out for a few beers tonight after the show?"
"Sure."
"See you later."
John went outside the Divas Locker Room. Natalya was about to go in.
"Hey Nattie can you grab AJ for me?" John asked
"Sure."
"Thanks."
She went inside. A few seconds later AJ came out.
"Hey sweetie." AJ said.
"Hey." "I know we were supposed to go out tonight but I was thinking I'd treat Randy to a few beers." "He seems down."
"It's fine."
"I'll make it up to you, ok?" "I promise."
"It's ok John." "You're such a good friend." She kissed him. "If you get to drunk to think straight and feel the need to wake me up and take advantage of me, feel free."
"I might take you up on that."
"I hope you do." "I love you."
"I love you too."
After the show Randy and John went to the bar. They were drinking and playing pool. Randy had just missed a shot.
"Of course I missed." Randy said frustrated. "Just like I totally missed the signs in my relationship with Caitlin." "She really played me for a fool." "I'm a fucking idiot." "I loved her and I thought she loved me."
"Now that you're not with her anymore, I can tell you the truth." "I never liked her." "Neither did AJ."
"Why didn't you say something?"
"We figured you wouldn't have listened."
"You're probably right." "At least one of us got lucky in the love department." "AJ's great."
"You can do a lot better then Caitlin."
"I'm not dating anymore."
"Are you coming out of the closet?" He said jokingly and smiling.
"Fuck you." "I'm just going to concentrate on work and Alanna."
