The Viper Returns

Disclaimer: Read threw other chapters!

Riley has been taking care the kids since Randy had to go back on the road. Everything seemed to be getting better between them. He has been doing what he could from on the road with the kids, but things were getting uncontrollable for him. Legacy broke up and he made a big impact in single wrestling again. He became WWE Champion for the seventh time which really made things hard on the couple. Riley understood everything, but she didn't want to lose all contact with him. She had her hands full taking care of Rj, Peyton and Melinda. Randy missed so much with all of the kids and she knew that it must have been killing him but he wouldn't even talk to her about it.

Randy on the other hand was busy talking to the guys in the back before a show started that he forgot about calling Rie and the kids. Maryse noticed him and since her and Ted were having trouble on their on screen relationship she figured that she would talk to Randy. Randy noticed her approaching him and all he could do was raise a brow at her. Maryse smirked as she got right beside him.

"what can I help you with Maryse?" he asked

"Oh Randy. Your such a sexy man." She replied

He rolled his eyes "What do you want?"

"well I was wondering if I could talk to you about Ted and my on screen relationship?"

"Why would you want to talk to me about it?"

"Because you seemed to have more experience with this and I could use some advice from you." She replied

"Alright." He said

"Good. Can we go back to your locker room and talk about it."

"sure."

She smiled as she followed him down the hallway. Meanwhile Riley had just put the kids to bed and sat down on the couch. She was a little surprised that Randy hadn't called her yet. She wasn't going to worry because she knew how busy he was since he was the champ. But she knew that it wasn't like him not to at least text her. Ted on the other hand decided that he was going to call her. He was having a rough time dealing with the divorce from Kristen and Riley was his best friend. Riley heard her phone going off and thought it was Randy.

"Randy?" she answered

"no. Its Ted."

"Oh hey Ted."

"randy hasn't called today?"

"Not yet. I know he is busy right now so I'm not worried about it."

"Alright. So how are you?"

"I'm good. How are you doing?"

"hanging in there the best I can."

"Im so sorry that your going threw this Ted.'

"Rie I'm okay. I just need a friend to talk to."

"well your talking to me."

"I know."

"Then what is going on Teddy Bear?"

"I don't know. I just hate being alone and Kristen was the person that didn't make me feel different when it came to things like me being a wrestler. But since she decided that she wanted to leave me and divorce me I just cant take it."

"Ted maybe you need a little vacation."

"Maybe."

"Seriously DiBiase you could use a break. Maybe you can come stay here with me and the kids."

"Are you sure that is a good idea Rie?"

"Ted you're my best friend and Randy's I don't see the harm in it."

"I don't know."

"Theodore Marvin DiBiase Jr if you don't say yes right now I'm never talking to you again."

"Alright you win. I'll come stay with you guys."

"Good."

"I have to go get ready. I'll call you later."

"Alright."

"Bye Rie."

"Later Ted."

Rie sighed putting her phone down. She never thought in a million years that Kristen would hurt Ted so bad, but she was wrong about that. She was even more wrong to even think that anyone like Kristen deserved love after what she did to Ted, but Kristen found a new guy in Dolph Ziggler and they are together and happy. Kristen is expecting her first child with Mr. Ziggles.

In Randy's Locker Room

Maryse was sitting on the couch talking and talking about her and Ted while Randy was listening to everything she was saying while he was changing in the bathroom.

"Have you ever tried talking with Ted?" He asked

"Yes, but he shuts me down every time. Then when he is talking in is on the phone with some girl."

"What girl?" Randy asked curious

"Some girl named Rie." She said smirking

Randy raised a brow when he heard Rie's name. "What do they talk about?"

"I don't know. He gets off the phone when I walk into the room. I think he is crushing on her bad."

He walked out of the bathroom "What do you mean?"

"Its like he tells her everything and I think she tells me everything that is going on with her."

Randy jaw clinched when he heard that. "Maryse maybe you shouldn't be in an on screen relationship with Ted. Maybe you should on your own again."

"but I like being a manger out there."

Randy nodded "then talk to Vince and the rest and see if they can put you with another wrestler."

"That does sound a lot better Randy. Thanks."

"no problem." He replied

She smiled and went to kiss his cheek just as he turned his head she kissed him right on the lips. Randy was in total shock but didn't move his head away from hers. Maryse on the other hand was enjoying it herself. Randy pulled away at the last minute when Rie popped into his head.

"Maryse." He said

"Im so sorry Randy. I was going to kiss you on the cheek." She replied

"Its fine. Im more to blame since I turned my head. But I think its time for you to go." He said

She nodded getting up and walking out of the locker room. Once the door was shut Randy looked at himself in the mirror and smirked. He still had his Lady Thriller moves, but now he had problems in his marriage surrounding his wife and DiBiase. He never thought in a million years that Riley would go outside of the marriage and talk to a friend about what was going on with them, but now that he knows it's a whole new ball game. He finished getting ready for his match and went out.

After the show Ted and Maryse were arguing out in the hall way and Randy noticed it. He watched Ted closely. Ted growled and walked down the hall away from Maryse. Randy smirked as he walked out of the building and straight to his car. He got in and drove towards the hotel. Once inside his room he set everything down and pulled out his phone. He sent Rie a text

Sorry about not calling. Been really busy. Did you have a nice talk with Ted about our relationship again. Don't worry about me coming home in a few days because I'm not I have things to do before the next show. I'll see you when I can- Randy

After the text was sent he shut off his phone and went straight to bed. Rie couldn't believe what she had read. Randy had never talked to her threw a text like that before. But how did he know about her and Ted talking. The only thing she could think of was Cody saying something but Cody wasn't there and she would never talk about her marriage to Ted unless she had no one else to. She didn't know what to do or think. She sent him a text back

Ted and I didn't talk about you and me Randy. So what ever you heard was a lie. I don't care what your doing the least you can do is call the kids. Cause after the text you sent me I don't think I want to talk to you at the moment. Do what you have to, but don't bring me into it anymore you know damn well Ted is having a hard time dealing with his divorce and he needed a friend and Im his best friend so he came to me. Weather you want to believe it or not that is up to you.- Riley

She put down her phone and went to bed anger. She never in her life went to bed anger she has been to bed upset, but never anger and Randy just made her angry over nothing. She knew something had gotten into him now and she didn't know what, but she knew that it was going to be one hell of a fight to get them back this time. She just didn't know if she had the strength to keep fighting over this relationship with him anymore.
