Chapter 28 A little jealousy
Ravens POV
When I got into work I was relieved to know that people weren't staring at me, finally they had gone back to their own little lives. Seriously if those two whores were more interested in who I was apparantly fucking then their lives were clearly sad. Well their lives were about to get a lot sadder. I decided that I would go to the locker room instead of letting the girls come to me, it meant that I could get away from them faster and away from Dean yelling at me. He really liked yelling at me through no fault of my own, yeah I think we all know that I'm lying right now. If I was a wooden puppet, my nose would of just grown. When I walked on in I found all the girls there and sadly Kelly's boyfriend Miz and Eve's boyfriend Jack Swagger as well. Could this day get any worse? Well it would, just not for me.
Instantly both men were on my case,
"You are going to apologize for breaking Kelly's nose" Miz stared down at me, "Because if you don't"
Miz let out a pathetic little whimper, his arm now mine and his throat there for the taking. "Whats goin to happen if I don't apologize?"
He struggled in my vulcan death grip, yeah thats smart. Struggle while a psycho has a big fucking hunting knife to your throat. Yeah he's smart.
"I wouldn't struggle Mike, a psycho has a very sharp knife right at your jugular, stay calm. Try using calmin words, relax, make yourself smaller and less threatenin, talk me down until I trust you enough to let you go"
Instantly he stopped and started taking my advice, it was really shocking that someone like him could actually appear to be less threatening, sadly it wasn't working and it never would.
"I should probably tell you now that it ain't gonna work, see all those things are the tips used with psyhicatric patients, its how they calm down the mentally insane, spend as much time with nutjobs as I did, you learn these things, but please go on"
It was quite thrilling to witness actually, a small nutjob (me) with a knife to Miz's throat, the girls crowding around in scared awe wondering what I was going to do and Swagger, well lets just say his mouth was finally shut. He finally made a move and in a flash the other knife was out, the tip right at his adam's apple. "One more step someone's gonna get hurt and I can gauren-damn-tee it ain't gonna be me"
They all stopped again and poor Miz was back to trying to calm me down, desperate men go to desperate measures, or something like that.
"What should I do? Should I let you go and let you live or should I decorate this room with a brand new colour called hint of Miz? Ooh decisions, decisions"
"Raven Venom Michales! Drop those knives this instant!"
"That works too" Instantly I let him go and re-shiefed my knives, I turned around and looked to my very irate uncle, "We were just playin"
"What game?"
"Lets kill Miz" I said sheepishly making Hunter grunt in anger. "Venom do your job and nothing else. Now."
I wasn't about to argue with his tone, I was possibly in enough trouble already so I was gonna let this one go. Starting with the only woman I could stand, I started my work with Tamina.
"You should of decorated the room, that would of been great" She whispered at me, I turned my laugh into a cough.
"Venom why are you still doing this?" Hunter asked gently, leaning against the wall. I couldn't believe he was going to open this can of worms, right now, where these pigs, (except Tamina) could hear and question it. Trust him to be so fucking stupid. Serioulsy he wasn't exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer, right up there with my father.
"Doin what exactly?"
"You know what, you're hell bent on hurting people around here"
"No I'm not" I waved it aside, I think considering all the shit these people have been reigning down on me, I've been pretty fucking patient.
"Venom I thought that after the past year you would be in a better place"
"I am in a better place but sadly there are some facts you just can't change. For example, Jack Swagger is always going to cheat on his girlfriend Eve because she ain't enough for him. The Rock is always gonna be a fuck-head that needs to be shot and I'm always gonna have these demons in my head. Its just pure fact that ain't never gonna change"
He let out a long sigh "Venom if you keep burning your bridges you're never gonna be able to get back"
I have never been so greatful to hear my cellphone ringing, even if it was those telemarkter people I would talk to them, it was better than talking to Hunter right now. "Hold that thought old man" "Hello Venom speakin"
I was very surprised and creeped out to hear that accent on the other end, but I would still take it over my uncle right now. Balancing the phone like a pro I continued work while talking. "I am very good and yourself?" "I thought there was a reason you called me, so what is your reason for ringing me?" His words pounded in my skull and I really couldn't believe this was happening. Still it was because my arm was really starting to hurt with the way I was holding the phone. "Are you serious?" "Well I'm very flattered but I'm gonna have to say no. Sorry to disappoint, ok bye"
I put my phone away and went on with my job, that was just plain weird and fucked up on so many levels.
"Who was that?" Hunter instantly asked, his eyes narrowing in concern, I had over heard my father and Hunter talking since being back and apparently I wasn't about to have any sort of relationship with anyone, it was far to dangerous. I wasn't sure if they meant for me or the guy, possibly the guy knowing my knife happy ways.
"No-one important"
Tamina shot me a look, a small smile on her face. She knew I was talking to a guy, she gave me a wink and I begged her with my eyes not to start because if she did, the room would be a fresh coat of hint of super-fly.
"Seriously Venom, who was on the phone?"
"None of you business old man, now leave me alone"
Quickly I did the rest of my job and got the hell away from them, with revenge in my head and weirdness in the air, I was warned that me and Hunter would be having a serious talk that night after the show. I needed a distraction and the company of someone I could tolerate, so I went to find my Viper, ok he's not really mine but it was my brain, I could think anyway I wanted. I caught up with Randy in the gym going over some light training, I lent against the door frame for a moment just watching that amazing body flex, every muscle ripped to perfection, I swear if I was a dude I would so have a raging hard on and I would obviously be majorly gay. He bent down and I couldn't help myself, I wolf whistled, in my defence he does that to me when I bend down. He put the weights down and looked at me.
"Thought I asked you not to ogle me like a bit of meat" He teased though his eyes still remained icy. His eyes always did that, even when he was happy his eyes were still cold.
"Yeah and I asked you not to wake me up at three thirty in the mornin with your talk of space monsters"
"Venom that was you, which by the way I'll only appreciate if you're naked"
I laughed a little sitting down on one of the machines, taking out my smokes I began to roll one, I was always told that I shouldn't smoke but hey they were my lungs, if I wanted to kill 'em then so help me I was gonna kill 'em. "Hey you wouldn't believe what just happened to me"
"You made a friend?"
I snorted with laughter "Yeah it wasn't that good Randy, someone asked me out"
He looked straight at me, his smile now gone and his whole face was now ice cold. "Who asked you out?"
"James Storm. It was really creepy" I finished rolling one smoke and instantly went on to another. "It was so weird, he asked his boss for a photo of me, I swear when I see Dixie again, I'm totally slappin the black off a her"
"Did you say yes?"
I snorted again, seriously some people ask some really stupid questions, "Yeah Rand, we're meetin up after work. He looks so much like Dad, I just couldn't help myself" I bit out laughter "Are you kiddin? I said no, how could you think different?"
"Good" He bit out still icy, he went back to the weights, instead of putting them down gently like he was before, he was just slamming them down, the metal responsible for his almost God-like physique was now getting his murderous rage.
"Whats your problem?"
"Nothing" He snapped at me still slamming the gear. I didn't understand why he was so mad, so I might of had a date, it wasn't that bad was it? Clearly it was.
"Randy, tell me. Why are you pissed?"
"I said I'm not"
"And yet you're snappin at me" Suddenly something clicked, its a miracle! "Omg! You're jealous!"
He looked at me "What? I'm not jealous"
"Yes you are, you're jealous that someone else has taken a shine to me" I got up and did a slight victory dance, I never imagined that he would be jealous, it was very comforting. He wanted me to himself and I found that very sweet in its own weird possessive way.
"I am not jealous, I just don't want you dating the enemy" Randy practically growled, he was still making it his mission to slam things around. I had to admit it did look like fun.
"So if John Cena asked me out and I said yes, you would be fine?"
"John asked you out? When?"
"You are totally jealous!" I laughed "Oh it feels good to laugh again. Look Rand I would love to try dating again, it was fun the one other time I did it but the only guy I want to ask me out won't ever ask me out, I'm startin to think that he hasn't even noticed I'm alive, which is weird because I'm spendin alot of time with him." I paused for a moment so he could let sink through his jealousy, "Weird don't you think? Someone being so jealous and possessive is actually blind. Well I'm goin to have a smoke, I'll let you ponder that for a while you jealous man you"
I heard him growl as I skipped out of the room, soon he would get it and when he did either one of two things was going to happen, either I'm going to get my heart broken or I'm going to wind up in a very long lecture from my father. I wasn't lookin forward to it either way. Thank the good lord for smoking.
