"You are so fucking stupid; I don't even know why I keep being friends with your stupid dumb ass."
Rolling his clear blue eyes at what his supposedly best friend just told to him, the infamous WWE wrestler known as John Cena shifted the weight of his body to his right foot and blew out another breath.
This was not the first time Randy would blurt such unkind words at him and like all the previous times, John responded with silence. He just didn't want to talk about the subject anymore and let alone with Randy Orton.
No, it was bad enough that for the last couple of weeks he has been carrying a heavy bag full of guilt upon his shoulders to now have Randy Orton continuously nagging him about the things he did or didn't do regarding the 'Eve Torres situation' as well.
It was his fault though, he shouldn't have told Randy… or better yet, he shouldn't have made Eve believe that she was his wife.
"You should have your man card revoked too, you know."
Getting fed up with everything already, John lifted a hand in his friend's direction and spoke. "Just drop it Randy, seriously." Now, his voice came out in a robotic kind of way but he was proud that at least he was able to keep under control his building temper.
As a response, the so called Viper laughed out loud. "Drop it? How can I… John, how can I drop it when I know that my best friend is a fucking wuss? Man… I even went there to help you get into her pants and all for what, for you to screw up and confess everything before getting to the good part?"
Unable to help it, John turned his face to the other man and snorted bitterly. "And what did you expect me to do? Keep the lies forever? Oh no, I forgot, you are just mad because I didn't nail her, right?"
At last that was the thing Orton kept repeating over and over again, that he couldn't understand how John has been unable to do her.
Didn't he want revenge? He would ask out of nowhere; revenge for the one Eve tried to pull on him, revenge from the way she ruined his friendship with Zack, revenge for all the things she has done not only to him but to the other superstars as well?
According to Randy, making up such an elaborate charade just to make her do his laundry and keep his house tidy was just a lame excuse because deep inside, what John has really wanted was take Eve to his bed.
John couldn't agree with that; lying to get laid was definitely not the way he operated and he wouldn't have been able to do it even if that would have been his intentions. In his mind it would be like rape and even though Randy would argue until exhaustion that it was not like that, John couldn't agree.
So yeah, in his mind telling Eve the truth was the best he could have done because being rational about it, he screwed up big time when it came to her so coming clean was the first step towards redemption.
As for Randy's way of thinking? He didn't want Eve, he just couldn't allow himself to want her… and as for the thing she tried doing to him? It didn't matter; the reality of everything was that keeping her away from her loved ones while she was vulnerable has been a low thing from him regardless of anything.
"Listen. Do you remember what she almost did to you a couple of months ago? She was going to use you and I would bet on anything that the kind of using she wanted to do involved a lot of leg spreading while lying on her back so what was the big deal anyway? Nailing her would have been giving her what she has always wanted!"
"You are a fucking pervert." John said while running a hand down his face. He just didn't understand Randy's logic and wicked way of thinking.
"Oh I'm the fucking pervert? Who's the one that lied to her and brought her home to play house? Admit it, John. I've seen the way you look at her now that she came back; you want her and deep in your mind you regret that you didn't get a chance to fuck the shit out of her smoking hot body."
Arching an eyebrow and snorting despite himself, John shook his head. "I don't know how you managed to marry such a sweet woman like Sam. I mean, listen to you, your mind is fucked up."
As he said that, out of the corner of his eye John saw Eve walk out of the arena and step into the parking lot and he couldn't help but to follow her progress with his stare.
She was alone like always, dragging a rolling suitcase behind her and not looking anywhere, just forward.
Now, Eve just came back to work three days ago and he was finding out that keeping his eyes away from her every time he would see her walk by was impossible; not that she noticed, she came back bitchier than ever and she would barely look at anyone in her vicinity, thing that let him know that her memory was back.
"Sam loves my dirty mind, ask her." Randy said, taking John out of his thoughts.
"Yeah, whatever. Anyway, as much as I would love this oh so lovely chat with you to drag into eternity, I have to go."
"Sure, how convenient that you have to go exactly when she comes out. If I didn't know any better I would say that you were waiting for her."
"Fuck off, Randy." John said, not wanting to confess that yes, he has been waiting for Eve because telling Randy that would be like admitting that the man was right in every claim he has made regarding him and Eve.
True, for all he knew apologizing could prove to be pointless and a big mistake, but he couldn't keep his mind at peace knowing that he still owed her a sincere apology. And yeah, he could argue with himself about how he already told her how sorry he was, but that was when she was still without her memory so it basically didn't count.
So, leaving Randy behind and keeping a safe distance while following Eve to her rental car, John inhaled deeply into the cold air of the night and then he blew out a breath.
Now, Eve's car was at the farthest corner of the open parking lot and looking back, John was glad because Randy couldn't see them from his spot; meaning that if Eve decided to kill him right then and there, no one would know.
"Statistically speaking, most attacks on women occur in lonely parking lots as this one so you know, you should really consider parking in a closer spot next time." John said dumbly when Eve was trying to open the car and probably startled, the woman dropped the key into the pavement before looking back to shoot him a heated glance. "Hey."
Clenching her jaw and obviously tensing, Eve's blazing eyes found his and she snorted incredulously. "You have a lot of nerve to come here and talk to me, Cena." Her voice was steady and firm and once her words were said she lifted her chin defiantly at him.
Nodding, John pursed his lips and with his dimples in full display, he kept his eyes on her. "I know, I just… I won't take much of your time, I just wanted to come here and apologize." He said, trying to keep his eyes focused.
Shaking her head, Eve looked up to the black skies and then she turned her back to him so she could open the door. The only problem was that the car was still locked and the key lying somewhere in the ground.
Mumbling something that he couldn't quite understand, the Diva turned around and tried to find the key. John saw her do it and having spotted the silver object before she was able to do it herself, he bent down to pick it up and give it to her.
"Here-" He said, extending his hand so that she could take it.
As he did that, Eve's eyes got caught up with his and then she just lost it, she sprung forward and hit him hard on his chest. She did it one time and then another and another, her hands closed to fists and hard as rocks. "Just who do you think you are? You can't… do what you did just like that. You had no right!"
She said, her teeth clenched and her face flushed in anger. On his part, John just remained there, the muscles of his jaw all tensed up and his eyes on her. "I'm sorry. I know a simple sorry won't cut it, but still… I shouldn't have done it."
Now, his words were sincere, but at the same time he couldn't help but to think on the things Randy said about him wanting her. True, he has never admitted this out loud, but the truth was that months ago, when he didn't know her to be a total scheming bitch, he has actually liked her.
He has never told anyone about that because he was still a married man and wanting another woman made him feel guilty, but the night she kissed him and Zack caught them, he had lay in bed for a long time thinking about her and the way her lips felt on his.
He has liked that kiss and if it wasn't because a week after he got to hear the woman talking about her evil plans for him, she probably would have wrapped him up in the most horrible way.
Just to think about it made him shudder. She would have cost him everything… and she has showed no kind of remorse whatsoever.
"Anyway, that's my apology… take it or leave it."
At that last statement, Eve opened her mouth to reply but instead of words, a bitter chuckle escaped her. After that she said nothing, she just hit him again, this time with her open palm and right on his cheek.
The smack stung and it made his face jerk to the left, but at the same time he has got it worse as well so he managed.
"And that's my answer to your apology. Now get out of my sight because I swear that if you don't-"
Before Eve could finish talking, John was moved by a force that he couldn't recognize as coming from himself and he sprung forward, circling an arm to her waist and then bringing her to him so that he could kiss her.
It was weird… almost like an out of body experience where he could see himself pulling her to him and kissing her senseless. His lips pressed insistently against hers without reservation, his teeth tugged at her lips without shame and his tongue invaded her mouth without any sense or wrongdoing.
It was just… he didn't know, but it felt too damn good.
The best part? Eve was kissing him back. She wasn't trying to bite his tongue out, she wasn't trying to rip his eyes out of its sockets and her hands were not beating on his chest as a way to make him stop. No, her tongue was moving along with his curious one as her hands came to rest on his stomach.
In that moment, John couldn't think about anything that wasn't based on pure sensation and when he realized that he had her pinned against the car he tried to shake his head from all fussiness.
It was a bit hard though, with her body molding perfectly against his and the kiss becoming more intense and profound, he just couldn't think straight.
Fortunately, Eve apparently got all her senses back in place and pushing him away with all her might, she wiped her mouth with the back of her hand. "Touch me one more time and you'll regret it for the rest of your life. You don't get to play anymore games with me so consider yourself warned."
"Fine." He said, turning around and moving away from her without turning back…

Sorry to leave it here, but with AJ and Cena getting all the attention I'm trying to get back into my Eve/John just because I like them too much to give up on them and this is all I was able to come up with. Hopefully there will be more soon ;)
