Chaptaaaa twenty one! :)

Thank you to everyone who reviewed on my last chapter, and I'm also happy that no one jumped on me for the delay in updating. :-) I'm twenty now! :D :D And the big plus? Royal's got married on my birthday. :) At like four in the morning, but it's still pretty awesome!

As you probably expect, there will be some new faces and names in the story because of Randy being traded. I haven't really figured out how to incorporate Maria into the chapters, since she's still on RAW. So until then, Randy will be by his lonesome. It shouldn't take me long to figure it out though.

Anyway, enjoy! Oooooh, and there's a twisty twist at the end! :D Ahahahah! And this is totally random, but who else loves Miz's helium sounding voice? I think it's cute!

The draft hasn't really affected my life, as much as I had previously thought it would. I mean sure, we really tape on Tuesday's instead of broadcasting live on Friday's, like – in my opinion – we should be doing. Alanna has taken rather kindly to the change of scenery, there is a handful of new girls for her to be with while I'm out in the ring, or in interviews. Even though she much rather preferred to be with Natalya or Victoria, those were the two who, besides Maria and Mickie, she became attached to when they were a part of the RAW roster with me.

In addition to that, I have pretty much worked with almost everyone on the roster already; hell I've been here nearly ten years, so it's a given. I wouldn't go as far as to say that most of these people fear me though, sure they've seen what I'm capable of in the ring, but what they need to understand is simple... I'm not that same guy outside of the ring, sure I may give a couple heated glares every now and then, but who doesn't?

Besides the fact of the matter is simply this, I'm more of a family man now. I think that shows because everywhere I go, I now have a two year old shadow right next to me. I don't go out and party much, but I haven't been one to do so since my Evolution days. And even then I hated women literally throwing themselves at me, I mean really do they have no shame?

All that aside, I am really looking forward to my new start here on SmackDown... it's exciting to match up with people that I've never had the pleasure of matching up with before. New skulls to punt in, I'm like a kid in a candy store right now. Hell maybe even a title shot right off the bat, you never really know.

The only thing that really really sucks about this, is not being able to be with John, Mickie, and Maria at all times. I grew so used to waking up next to Maria every morning, that sometimes I don't even want to go to sleep at night. I miss the midnight runs to McDonalds or iHop with John that we went on almost nightly. I miss the talks Mickie and I used to have all the time, she was the main person I went to when I had relationship issues. I know that most of you think that person should be John, but I know for a fact that he would ask Mickie anyway.. so I figured that I would just beat the middle man out, you know?

I'm not really one to mope around though, I know that this decision is set in stone. So there is no sense in knocking down the doors at WWE Headquarters and demanding that I be sent back to my rightful place. Besides my dad always used to tell me, "You stay where you belong son." And he's never steered me wrong before... well except for the whole Samantha thing. But what's done is done.

Alanna and I have been able to spend much more time sight seeing nowadays, I'm pretty much off all week. Except for the interviews and photo shoots, but those hardly take any time at all. So I'll take her out for ice cream, maybe the park for a while, and if there happens to be a baseball game taking place wherever we are; you can bet that her and I are right there watching. It doesn't really matter if my favorite team is playing or not, baseball is an American past time and I am going to make sure that my daughter knows that.

I don't know if any of you have noticed this, but I've decided to grow myself a little Justin Gabriel-esque beard. It's coming along rather nicely if I do say so myself, I'm sure that Maria would hate it though. She always preferred for me to be clean shaved, and looking 'professional', but she's not around, so I don't have to listen to her.

That's not a bad thing... right? Of course it isn't.

I was given my own locker room, thank baby Jesus! I've always hated sharing locker rooms, I've just always thought that it was gross... even back in high school and stuff. It hurts just to think about it. Plus I don't need to have Alanna around all those guys, and the cussing, and rough housing that usually tends to go on in the shared locker rooms. It rubbed off on me in a bad way, from all the times I was with my dad. Most of the guys tried not to cuss in front of me, but guys will be guys now won't they?

Alanna – with what was becoming rather regular for her – abandoned me, to go shopping with Kaitlyn, she and the NXT Season Three winner had become pretty good friends in such a short amount of time. I credit that to the fact that Kaitlyn is nearly as much a child as my daughter is, but whatever floats her boat I guess.

This left me alone for at least two to three hours, I know how crazy the Diva's can get when they carry their plastic with them. So maybe it wouldn't be a stretch to push it back to four hours, regardless I'm using my time by coming down to the hotel's gym to get myself a good work out... it seems like it's been weeks since I've had one. When in actuality it's only been like three days. I can't help it, I tend to exaggerate when I'm slightly depressed; isn't everyone?

My workout actually went pretty well, except for having to ask some awkward looking teenage kid to be my spotter on the bench press. But other than that, I felt great about everything I managed to accomplish on my own. Hell I felt so good about it, that instead of taking the elevator all the way up to the fifth floor, I opted to take the stairs. A decision in which I came to regret by the time I had reached my floor and my room which was at the end of the hallway.

After shuffling for a good five minutes in my duffel bag, I finally felt my fingers come across the tiny plastic card, also known as my room key; I slid in through the door knob and waited for the green light to come on allowing me to enter. A weird crunching sound from underneath my feet caused me to look down, underneath my shoe I could faintly see the corner of an envelope... gosh I hope a fan didn't figure out what room I was staying in. I don't need to live one of those days again.

I picked up the envelope and ripped it open from the right side, sliding out the light pink sheet of paper, I unfolded it and began to read...

Randy,

Looks like we are both alone now, for completely different reasons of course. But still, being alone is never fun. You and Maria probably broke up, I mean a good looking man like you can't be expected to be faithful to your girlfriend, who is on a completely different show. Let me know when you are ready to move on. I'll be watching you. :) 3

Oh boy.

Booyah! Chapter 21 is finito! :)

Hope that everyone enjoyed it, who do you think his secret admirer is? Do you think Randy will take it seriously? How crazy will this girl get with her newly found crush? And what will Maria do if she founds out?

Sorry for the short chapter! Longer ones will resume shortly! :D Review my peeps! :-)

Randy is Champ! :D

Deuces!
