The next week at RAW...
I was in the locker room with Cody, getting ready for my match against Triple H. Ted was there too...but he was making out with Britt on the couch (AS USUAL). Cody was now immune to their disgustingness.
"Dude, are you ready for your match?"
I didn't hear what he was saying. I wasn't focusing or paying attention to him. I kept thinking about Victoria and how beautiful she looked with nothing but a towel or underwear on.
"Randy?"
Damn, Victoria's so beautiful, a voice in my head repeated.
"RANDY!!!!!!!!!!!" Cody screamed.
I finally heard him.
"What do you WANT?" I hissed. "Jesus, I'm sorry that I was being a good friend and asking if you're ready for your match...maybe if you listened I wouldn't have to scream!" he snapped.
I stepped back in shock. Cody had never snapped at me like that before. "Sorry, bro. Just a little tense today," he apologized, reading my mind. I nodded, looked up at the ceiling, and closed my eyes. There was no way I was going to win this match if all I could think about was my girl. I needed concentration.
"Do you wanna talk? You don't seem very focused on your match right now," Cody sighed. "Yeah...I saw Victoria almost naked the other night and now I keep thinking about it," I confessed.
"You WHAT?!"
I turned to see Brittany looking very shocked at what I had said. "I was watching her get changed," I sighed. "She let you?" she asked me, very surprised. "No...she told me not to...I only saw from the back, and I didn't see her butt, but...she just looked so...sexy," I replied. "She's gonna flip out on you if she finds out, ya know," she said, matter-of-factly. "Yeah, I know," I mumbled. "Especially since she's so over protective of her body after what happened with Ricky," she added.
"What are you talking about?" I asked confusedly. "Oh...I'm guessing she didn't tell you...?" "Brittany...you better tell me right now," I hissed. "No, I can't. It's none of my business. Let her tell you," she shook her head stubbornly. "Ted...tickle her," I demanded. "Dude n-" "DO IT TED!"
He immediately started tickling her. She was laughing so hard and so uncontrollably. "Ok, ok, I'll tell you Orton!" she screamed. Ted quickly stopped, and him and Cody exchanged anxious glances.
"Well?" I asked impatiently. "When Victoria was a junior in high school she went out with this kid, Ricky. And they were very serious. They started dating when they were freshmen. And he wanted to do stuff with her and she wanted to do stuff with him so..." she paused. "SO?!" I screamed.
"So...the night of Victoria's 16th birthday he went over her house, and while Victoria was in the bathroom she decided she was going to seduce him that night. And he didn't know if she was ready or not, and he was going to have sex one way or the other so...when she got out of the bathroom, he...he raped her, Randy," she explained.
My jaw dropped in shock. "Oh my God," Ted and Cody said at the same time. "Why...oh Jesus. I feel so bad trying to take off her towel now," I said sadly. "God, Randy. You tried to take off her towel too?" Brittany asked. "Yes, I did. Oh God. I feel so bad now. I just wanna hold her and tell her that everything's fine and that I'll never do that to her," I sighed.
We all stood there in silence for a few minutes.
"Randy, are you ready for your match yet? Triple H is waiting for you in the ring."
I looked to the door and saw Victoria in a black miniskirt and a tight red shirt. Damn. She was leaning against the door, waiting for me. "Yeah, do you wanna come to the ring with me?" I asked, trying to fight back the tears in my eyes. I guess I was successful because she didn't seem to notice.
"Sure," she smiled. "Good," I laughed as I quickly wiped my eyes and put one arm around her.
I ended up losing my match. What a 'perfect' day.
Victoria's P.O.V.
I was too tired to go home by myself that night, so Randy took me back to his house with him...again.
He was acting really weird. I didn't know why though.
At about midnight we finally laid down on the couch and turned on the TV. I stared at his flawless, shirtless body.
I think he noticed me drooling over him, cause he winked at me.
I snuggled up into his chest and curled my body into a ball. He ran his big hands through my hair.
I took in his scent. He smelled so fresh and clean.
"Victoria...," he whispered. "Yeah?" I said quietly as I closed my eyes. "Why didn't you tell me that you got raped?" he asked. My eyes popped open and I jumped off of him.
I started to cry hysterically. "Tor, no. No, don't cry, baby girl. Come here," he stood up and hugged me. He squeezed me so tight that my body went numb. I rested my head on his shoulder as the tears flowed out. "Who told you?" I whispered into his shoulder. "Britt did," he said, "Victoria, I'm so sorry. Last week...I would've never tried to do anything with you if I would've known. I'm so sorry." "It's ok," I replied softly. "Baby, let me hold you. I just wanna hold onto you and never let go now," he smiled. "Of course," I smiled back. I pulled away from him slowly.
I smiled again. "There's that gorgeous smile," he sighed as he wiped the tears from my eyes. I laughed a little and then looked into his eyes. He was downright gorgeous.
He shut the TV and we went upstairs together.
When we got into his room, he turned the TV on, but he put it on mute. He laid down and yawned. I followed him and cuddled up in his arms. I buried my face in the hallow of his neck. He kissed my forehead and started playing with my hair until I was beginning to fall asleep. It was then and there that I realized something that could change the way I looked at Randy forever...I was deeply and madly in love with him.
