Randy-
I threw my towel on the ground and groaned.
"What's wrong with you?", Rey asked.
"I've tried twice now to tell Lexi how I feel, but she just finds an excuse to run off, it's like she doesn't want to hear me tell her I love her", I said.
"Do you?", he asked.
"Yes, she's amazing, funny, and I've never met anyone like her", I said.
He nodded.
"I know her, you just got to take things slow", he said.
"I have been, we haven't even had sex yet", I said frustrated.
"Can I ask you something?", he asked.
I nodded.
"Do you just want to tell her you love her so she could sleep with you?", he asked.
I sat up.
"Really? I would never do that to her", I said.
He raised his hands and shook his head.
"Just asking, I gotta be sure. I promised her dad I would look out for her", he said.
I nodded.
"Listen if you plan on telling her this, just remember she might not say it back, all this is new to her. I mean, she's only had one boyfriend and that was in high school. Just let her know it's okay if she doesn't say it back", he said.
"Yeah, okay", I said.
"So you expect her to say it back?", he asked.
"I don't know, I mean, I think it would kinda hurt if she didn't but I'll understand", I said.
He nodded.
Lexi-
"So what's the problem?", I asked.
Kaitlyn sighed.
"Every opportunity has been handed to you both, you've both gotten great matches. I mean I get it, if I had a boyfriend who was on top", I rolled my eyes, AJ cut her off.
"Would you stop, you better than anyone knows that we worked our asses off to get here", AJ said.
"You asked why I don't talk to you guys anymore, maybe if you weren't busy with your boyfriends or Lexi ditching me for the Bellas you would have known this", she said, crossing her arms over her chest.
"Why didn't you just say something? I would have dropped all that to spend time with you to talk", I said.
"I wasn't going to beg you for attention", Kaitlyn said.
"Its not begging. I can admit we have been spending more time with Randy and Phil, also the Bellas but all you have to do is say something", I said.
AJ nodded. Kaitlyn sighed and relaxed.
"I guess I was kinda jealous and feeling left out", she said.
"Then say something Kaitlyn, we would never want you to feel left out", AJ said.
"You even turned to Aksana", I said.
"I can't believe I even hung out with Aksana", she said laughing.
We laughed.
"I've also been wanting to tell you girls about this guy I met", Kaitlyn said, smiling from ear to ear.
I stood.
"Where are you going?", AJ asked.
"I need to talk to Triple H, don't talk about this new guy till I come back", I said.
Kaitlyn stood and stopped me.
"Don't, I know what you're thinking, don't give up this match because of me. This is great for you and I am happy for you", she said.
"I know but I don't think I'm ready for it, I just can't yet", I said.
"Really think about this Lexi", AJ said.
"I have", I said.
I went to Hunter and knocked on his door. It opened and he smiled.
"Hey what can I do for you?", he asked.
"I came to talk to you about the title match", I said.
He nodded and gestured for me to come in, I did and sat.
"So what's going on?", he asked, sitting across from me.
"I know the plan is for me to get the title from Layla, but I just don't think I'm ready for it. I'm still getting use to all of this", I said.
He stopped me.
"Does this have anything to do with Kaitlyn and Aksana?", he asked.
"A little, but it's more me than them", I said.
He nodded.
"I didn't pick you because you're dating Randy Orton, I picked you because you're a great wrestler. I've seen first hand what you could do, I've seen footage of your matches in Mexico. Rey Mysterio has said nothing but good things about you. From the moment I knew I wanted you to debut in the main roster, I wanted you to have the Divas title", he said.
"That means a lot Paul, but I just", he stopped me.
He nodded.
"I understand, how about we make some sort of deal?", he asked.
"Okay", I said.
"Triple threat match, Layla vs you vs Eve. She's retiring soon, why not give her one last title run", he said.
"Really, that sounds great", I said.
He smiled and nodded.
"Before I tell her though, I need you to be absolutely sure. I'll give you till next Monday to make up your mind", he said.
"Okay", I said.
He walked me to the door and I thanked him again. I felt arms go around my waist.
"Hey baby", he whispered.
I smiled and then remembered him wanting to tell me he loved me.
"We need to talk kiddo", he said.
I nodded. He turned me in his arms and we found a private hall or at least as private as we were going to get.
"Lexi, I love you", he said, looking me in my eyes.
I licked my lips.
"You don't have to say it back, I just needed to tell you", he said, brushing my hair back.
"Its not that I don't want too, I'm just afraid. I don't want to say it and then tomorrow something happens between us", I said.
"I know, but I would never do anything to hurt you", he said.
I smiled and kissed him.
"I just need a little bit more time", I whispered.
He nodded.
"All the time you need", he said.
He kissed me, his hands running over my body, squeezing and moaning. I pulled away needing air.
"Mind if I room with you tonight?", I asked.
He looked surprised, but nodded.
"Okay, so then see you after the show", I said, walking away.
He nodded.
Randy-
After the show, I found Lexi waiting by my car. I smiled and unlocked it. Opening the back and putting our suitcases in. Closing the back I went to open her door and let her in.
"Thank you", she said.
I went around and got in.
"So do your girls know you're rooming with me tonight?", I asked.
"Yeah, AJ's rooming with Phil and Kaitlyn was telling us about this guy she met. He's coming down to see her and I really didn't want to room alone", she said.
"Oh so you're using me then", I said.
She laughed.
"No, I want to spend time with you too", she said.
"So should I get two beds or", I stopped.
Silence. I looked over at her and she was biting her lip nervously. I looked back at the road, as much as I wanted to sleep with her I also had to be patient and wait till she was ready.
"I can get us two beds baby", I said.
"No, we can share but I feel so bad saying this, but no sex", she said.
"Don't feel bad, I get it", I said.
I felt her hand on my arm.
"Randy", she said.
"I'm not going to lie, I do want to make love to you. Really, really bad, but I can wait, no pressure love", I said.
I heard her sigh.
"I didn't tell you I loved you because I thought that would get you into bed. I said it because I mean it, I do love you Lexi", I said a little hurt.
"I didn't say anything and I never thought that, you're putting words into my mouth", she said.
"It didn't cross your mind, not even a little?", I asked.
"No, but now it is", she said.
The car ride to the hotel was quiet after that. Once I parked, I sighed.
"I don't want to fight", I said.
"Neither do I, I texted Brie and asked her if I could room with her, she said it was fine. Nikki's with John Cena so", she shrugged.
"You don't have to do that", I said.
"Randy", I cut her off.
"I don't want us leaving each other mad", I said.
She leaned over and placed her hand under my chin, turning my face to look at her.
"I'm not mad, are you?", she said.
I shook my head no.
"Then goodnight, text me your room number and I'll see you in the morning", she said.
"Okay, I love you", I said.
She pressed her lips against mine.
"I love you", she whispered.
I helped her take down her bag, getting inside the lobby. Brie was waiting for her. She looked at me and I wrapped my arms around her waist.
"Say it again", I whispered.
She smiled and pecked my lips.
"I love you", she said.
"I'm never going to get tired of hearing that", I said.
She giggled.
"See you in the morning", I said, letting her go.
She walked away with Brie.
