Randy Orton/Cody Rhodes

Yaaay! More writings. I like this pairing too. It's awfully cute. Like before, I don't own anyone, just my little idea.

Randy brought his car to a stop in the driveway, turning it off now. "Alright, let's go in and get her." When his passenger didn't move, he frowned. "Codes?"

Cody lifted his head a bit and looked over at the older man. "Hmm? Oh, right." That was why they were there. To pick up Alanna for the four days that they had off. So, the little girl could spend time with her father. "You go in. I'll wait here."

Randy frowned still. He unbuckled his seat belt, but he did not get up. In fact, he sat there beside the younger brunette. "What's the matter?" He asked gently. He reached over to take Cody's hand, only for it to be pulled away. "Cody."

"I just.." In his hands, Cody twisted his seat belt. Needing something to just fiddle with. "Sam doesn't like me, you know that." What woman would like her former husband's lover, of all things? "She hates me and I don't.. want her to say something bad in front of Alanna." Alanna loved Cody. She thought he was funny and acted like a big kid around her.

"Baby-boy.." Randy tried again to take Cody's hand. Cody let him take the hand, the older man sliding their fingers together, gently. "Sam understands. We've worked this out." Samantha and Randy had joint-custody of their little girl, but Alanna lived with Sam most of the time. "She's not angry."

Hah. Randy had to be blind. The look Sam gave Cody every time she saw him was enough to freeze water. "Sure, Ran.. Look." Cody had to force a smile, looking at his older lover. "Go get her and we'll go to the zoo. You did promise her lions and tigers." He added.

Randy smiled. He did promise.. The viper leaned over, softly kissing Cody's lips now. "I'll be right back." He released Cody's hand, opening the car door and climbing out. He closed the door, heading up the path to the front door. He rang the bell, waiting for someone to answer.

The door was flung open. "Daddy! Daddy!"

Randy smiled. "Hi, baby girl." He reached down, scooping the little girl into his arms. "I missed you, Lana." He pressed a few kisses to her face. Alanna giggled, wrapping her small arms tight around her father's neck. "Missed you, Daddy!" Her father smiled and carried her into the house, closing the door with his foot.

"Mama, look!" Alanna announced as she was carried into the kitchen area. "Daddy's back!" She giggled as Randy set her down on the counter. Sam smiled. "Hey, Randy." She opened her arms to accept the hug. "How are you feeling?"

"Little stiff, sore." Randy squeezed her gently. "But, I'm good. How're you and Lana?"

Sam smiled at her daughter now. "Alanna's been doing good. She loves to do ballet." She looked up at her ex-husband, her expression changing. It looked flat. "How's Cody?" She asked.

Randy glanced over, seeing that Alanna was watching them, curiously. "Lana, go and get your things, huh?" He took hold of her, setting her down on the floor. "Scoot, baby."

Obeying, Alanna ran out of the kitchen as fast as her little five year old feet would take her. Randy turned to face his ex-wife, crossing his arms over his broad chest as he spoke. "Cody's fine. He's afraid you're gonna bite his head off he comes inside to get Alanna."

Well... Samantha smiled tightly. "Well, I'm sorry if I can't force myself to like your lover, Randy. But if that's the jackass you left me for-"

"Sam."

Samantha threw her hands up into the air. "I let you have joint-custody, Randy. That's enough. I don't have to like your boyfriends." She turned to her ex, closing her eyes, then opening them again. She breathed out. "I'm sorry. Just take Alanna and have fun. She hasn't seen you in so long."

Randy frowned at her. He turned to his daughter as Alanna ran inside the room, dragging her Princess and the Frog suitcase behind her. "Hey, Lana. Ready to go?" He knelt down to her, taking her little hand in his.

"Let's go!"

He had to smile. His daughter was so incredibly adorable. Randy stood, holding her hand as they walked to the front door. "We're gonna go to the zoo. See all the animals with Cody."

Alanna smiled brightly. "Lions and tigers and bears!"

"Oh my." Randy finished with a smile. He helped Alanna down the stairs and to the path, towards the car. "Give Daddy your suit case and you can climb in." He stopped, opening the back door for her. Cody turned around in his seat as Alanna was helped into the backseat. "Well, hey, Lana."

"Hi, Cody!" Alanna greeted him cheerfully. She leaned forward in her seat, lightly kissing at his cheek. Cody smiled. She was utterly adorable. Randy closed the trunk and walked around to the driver's seat again.

After climbing in, he buckled his seat belt, as did Alanna. "Everyone ready to go?"

"Ready!"

Cody smiled at his lover, reaching over to gently wrap his hand around Randy's bicep. He squeezed it gently. "I'm ready."

Randy smiled in return, starting up the car again. Time for just some family time.
