Thanks for the reviews..please keep reading and reviewing.


"Little girl what the hell was that about."

Lexi looked up to see Taker in front of her. "Umm I was just looking for Dave."

"Well it's your lucky day, he's at the table with me and Trish." Taker said taking hold of her arm and guiding her over to the table Dave and Trish were already sitting down at.

Dave had the same look on his face that Taker did and she sighed sat down. "Hey Davy." She said grinning.

Taker sat down and all three of them pinned her with the same disapproving stare.

Lexi crossed her arms, they could be pissed all they wanted, nobody messed with one of her friends and got away with it.

"Look guys, that ho cheated on John, he's my friend, no way could I let that pass, sorry if you're pissed, get over it, she deserved more than what she got." Lexi said.

Trish cracked first and started laughing. "You're a real firecracker Lexi."

Taker glared at her, but Dave started grinning to. "I would do the same thing if anyone messed with you guys, you're my family." Lexi said looking at Taker.

He just shook his head. "You need a keeper." but he leaned over and kissed her cheek.

"She's got one." Dave said winking at her. "I'm starving." Lexi said grabbing a menu.

"Your foods on the way, I already ordered for you." Dave said and pushed a cup of coffee at her.

"You didn't order a bunch of fruit or bagels did ya, I want real food for breakfast." Lexi said sipping her coffee.

Trish and Taker laughed knowing she meant sugar.

Dave grinned. "Those god awful chocolate chips pancakes you like so much, extra whipped cream."

Lexi smiled and leaned over kissing Dave. "Thanks." She said touched that he remembered her favorite food.

Dave just smiled. "So Taker tells me you a wealthy woman."

Lexi nodded. "Yea I guess I am, but I don't have any real plans, I'm going to keep working here, I guess when I get tired of that I'll buy me a house somewhere and settle down."

"Speaking of which, we leave tomorrow morning to go to sign those papers, they will transfer the money to your bank account and we can head back, tell Orton he'll have to wipe his own ass for one day." Taker said.

Lexi started laughing. "He's not that bad."

Taker rolled his eyes. "Yes he is. He can barely go to the bathroom without you."

Lexi shook her head, she liked doing things for Randy and she liked taking care of him.

John packed up Maria's stuff and sat it in the hallway. He hope she didn't have enough nerve to come to his room, he really didn't want to deal with her, in the mood he was in, he couldn't believe she had cheated like that, if she didn't want him, all she had to do was say so.

"So I see Lexi couldn't wait to run to you."

John looked up to see Maria coming up the hallway. He seen her busted lip.

"Maria, here's you stuff, just take it and go, we're done." He said turning to go back in his room.

"So you just believe anything she says." Maria said putting her hands on her hips.

"Lexi don't lie, unlike some people." John said staring at her.

"You know what John, just go to hell, it was always about Lexi anyway, I could never compete with her or your precious Mickie. I guess you asked her to hit me in the mouth too..Lexi just came up and pulled my hair and busted me in the mouth in front of everyone in the restaurant." Maria said and grabbed her bag and rushed off back down the hallway.

John sighed, he was relieved in a way. Now maybe he could get some peace. He didn't have to listen to her nag anymore. He grinned as he thought of Lexi hitting Maria, the girl was way overprotective of him and Randy, he felt sorry for Crystal if she messed with Randy. He knew he shouldn't encourage Lexi to be violent, but he knew he would do the same if somebody messed with her.

Jeff finished the sketch and looked at Candace. "Okay, I'm done."

Candace got up and stretched and went over to look at the sketch, he was good no doubt. "Do you really think I look like that?" She asked, he made her look so beautiful.

Jeff stood up and smiled closing his sketch book. "You are beautiful Candace." He said reaching up to cup her cheek.

Candace jumped at the feel of his warm hand on her skin. "I guess I should go."

Jeff took his hand away.

Candace started for the door. "Candace, come by my dressing room at the arena tonight after your match, maybe we could get a bite to eat afterwards."

Candace turned to look at him. He was so handsome, even though he wasn't necessarily her type at least not the type she had dated in the past. "Okay, I'd like that."

Jeff smiled. "Me too."

Candace smiled as she left Jeff's room. Mr. Hardy definitely had her intrigued.

Lexi walked in Randy's dressing room to find him staring at the wall lost in thought.

"Hey Randy." She said sitting down beside him.

"Hey killer, heard about you socking Maria today." He said grinning.

Lexi just laughed. "She had it coming, I hope her and Ken are happy, now she needs to leave John alone."

"Yea, I bet she will too, damn girl, you got some temper when you get riled don't you." he said.

Lexi just smiled and got up sitting his water down. "Here's your schedule for the week. I have some business to take care of, I'll be gone for a day or two."

Randy frowned. "Where are you going?"

"Home to Alabama." Lexi explained to him at Scarlatti and the restitution he was being forced to pay her.

"Wow, my girls rich huh? I guess I'll really have to chase off the guys now. You be careful, a lot of gold diggers out there." He said.

"I'm not worried, I'm not interested in anyone right now but Dave, anyway, I'm going to keep working for now." She said.

Randy didn't say anything, the way her and Dave were hanging all over each other this morning told him all he needed to know, but it wasn't like he had offered her anything, he had no right to be upset.

Randy reached out and pulled her in a hug and Lexi locked her arms around his waist. "Good I would be lost without you Lexi, you cant just up and quit on me." He said.

"I'm not going anywhere Randy." She said.

Just then Randy's door opened and Crystal walked in. "Who the hell are you." She snapped at Lexi.

Lexi extracted herself from Randy's arms and turned to look at the woman, not that she had any doubt who it was. The infamous Crystal. "Who the fuck are you is a better question?"

The blond woman just glared at Lexi. "I'm Randy's fiancée."

Lexi grinned and interrupted before Randy could open his mouth. "Oh yea, the two bit ho, that cheated on him, ex fiancée, I'm Randy's person assistant and his best friend, no one sees him with out going through me first and you on his list of people he don't want to see, so you'll have to leave."

Randy laughed as steam practically rolled out of Crystal's ears. "Nobody talks to me that way."

"I do, now Vince frowns on other employees stalking his superstars, so if you want to keep your job, I suggest you stay away from him." Lexi said staring her down.

Lexi could see she hit her mark as Crystal paled a little. Crystal needed this job, at least until Randy came to his senses again. "Fine little miss high and mighty, but let me tell you this, some little girl like you wont please Randy for long, he's one freaky fucker, and I know what he likes." Crystal said and then turned and slammed out of the room.

Lexi turned and grinned at Randy. "And just how freaky are you Randy?"

Randy just shook his head. "Not for a sweet girl like you to know." He said with a smirk on his face.

Lexi laughed. "If she keeps screwing with you let me know, I'll have Mark talk to Vince."

"Lets hope she just stays away. I just don't need to have her in my face all the time." Randy said sitting back down.

Lexi walked over and bent to kiss his cheek. "You need to talk anytime, and you know where to find me."

Randy nodded. "Thanks Kid."

"By the way, me and Dave, Ashley Hunter and John are going out to the club tonight, why don't you come."

"Sure sounds like fun, save a dance for me, if you think Dave wont get jealous." He said.

Lexi laughed. "Dave ain't like that and he has nothing to be jealous of we're just friends remember?" Lexi said and turned and left.

Randy looked at the closed door after she left. "Yea I remember." He said softly to himself.

Lexi hurried down to give Shelton his schedule and let him know she was going to be gone a few days.

"Do you really have to leave, I got that photo shoot tomorrow and that damn photographer likes to fuck with me, she don't mess with me when you're there, remember you went off on her last time."

Lexi laughed at Shelton. "Dude you're whining."

Shelton pouted. "I know, but I hate that bitch."

"What bitch?" Jeff asked walking into the dressing room him and Shelton was sharing.

Shelton sighed. "That bitch photographer, she hates me."

"Aww I get it, you want Lexi to go and protect you." Jeff said laughing.

"Yes, pretty much." Shelton said grinning.

"Sorry Shelton, if I was going to be here, I would go with you." Lexi said.

"Its okay..I'll live, see you when you get back, I got to get to my match, I'm up next." He said and left.

Jeff sat down on the sofa. "Come here and take a break, I know you been running around all day."

Lexi sank beside him on the couch "You look stressed."

She shrugged. She was a little tense from all the crap with Maria and now Crystal. "I heard you punched Maria." he said laughing.

"Yea, she had it coming, she fucked with John." Lexi said.

Jeff put his arm around her shoulder. "Girly you're a handful of trouble, hope Dave can keep up with you."

"We'll see." She said her eyes twinkling.

There was a knock at the door and Lexi stood. "I have to get going, see ya later."

Jeff got up and followed her to the door, when she opened it she was surprised to see Candace standing there, she still wasn't happy with her because she kissed Dave.

She ignored Lexi and spoke to Jeff. "You done for the night?"

Jeff nodded. "Yea let me grab my bag and we'll go."

Lexi looked at Jeff like he was crazy, why the hell was a guy like Jeff, going out with Candace?

Lexi just shook her head and left, Jeff was a big boy, hopefully he knew what he was doing.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After watching Randy's match with John she had stayed around a few minutes to chat with them in which John had lectured her about fighting, but then he had kissed her and told her thank you for being such a good friend. Lexi smiled as she walked down to Dave's dressing room. She was happy as she had ever been, even being around Randy was easier now that she had someone. She had decided that if thats all Randy wanted, friendship was what she would settle for, she couldn't live her life waiting for Randy to fall in love with her.

Lexi knocked on Dave's door and then poked her head in to find him on his laptop.

He smiled up at her. "Princess you don't have to knock."

Lexi walked in and shut the door. Dave closed his laptop and sat it on the table. "Come here Baby." he said his hand beckoning to her. Lexi walked over and took his hand and he pulled her down straddling his lap. Dave leaned in and kissed Lexi and her arms circled his neck. His kiss was warm, and he nipped her bottom lip causing her to giggle. "My match is in a half an hour, if you want to go on back to the hotel and get ready to go out tonight, you can catch a ride with one of the guys." Dave said.

"No, thats all right, I'd rather wait for you." Lexi said kissing him again.

"Everyone is getting a cab over and I told them they could ride back with us, since I'm not drinking." Lexi said.

"Thats fine." Dave said as his hands ran up the outside of her thighs squeezing lightly. Lexi smiled and laid her head on Dave's shoulder and kissed his neck.

"Mmmm you feel good princess." Dave said wrapping his arms tighter around her.

Lexi loved just laying on Dave like this. She didn't know what it was about Dave, but when she was with him, she felt so good, it had been like that from the first time she had met him.

"Why don't you take a little nap, and I will wake you up when I get back, I can tell you're tired." Dave said lifting her and laying her on the couch.

Lexi yawned. "Okay." Dave grabbed one his jackets and cover her with it and bent and kissed her cheek. "Be back soon."

Lexi closed her eyes and dozed off rather quickly.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lexi sat on Dave's lap in the club and sipped at her soda as the rest of the guys had beer.

Hunter looked over at Lexi. "So I heard you punched the crap out of Maria, how did you know she was playing around on John?"

"Umm I saw her with him." Lexi lied. Lexi was a bad liar and Hunter looked over at Ashley who tried her best to look innocent.

John and Randy came over and sat down and ordered beers. Ashley jumped and grabbed Lexi's hand and they jumped out on the dance floor. Dave watched Lexi, she had on a black skirt, it was short, but not short enough to be slutty, but short enough to make him want to run his hand under it, she had a red midriff top on showing off her flat stomach and tattoos. The girl was smoking and her hair swung lose as she danced. She looked up to see him watching her and winked.

Dave grinned. She was definitely turning him on. Randy stood up when a slow song came on and went and started dancing with Lexi. John got up and asked some girl to dance and Hunter looked over at Dave. "It don't bother you, Orton dancing with her?"

Dave looked over at him. "Me and Lexi have a understanding, I'm not worried about her running around on me, if thats what you mean."

Hunter picked up his beer and stared at Dave. "She's in love with him."

"Yes I know, but shes with me, Orton is a dumb ass, I figure he will wake up sooner or later, and when he does Lexi will go to him."

Hunter laughed. "You got it all worked out huh, okay what if she falls in love with you, what then?"

Dave shook his head his brown eyes flashing. "Thats not going to happen, I care for Lexi and she cares for me, but we discussed this, she knows I'm not looking for anything long term and she loves Orton, she'll end up with him."

"That sounds real simple Dave, but what if you fall in love with her?" Hunter asked.

"I'll walk away anyway, I'm a lot older than her, she's got her whole life ahead of her." Dave said turning back to watch her dance with Randy.

When the song ended Lexi pulled herself from Randy's arms and walked over to Dave. She sat down straddling his lap and kissed him and Dave's hands came to rest on her hips. Lexi put her mouth to his ear. "Dance with me lover."

Dave smiled. He knew Lexi was telling him in her own way, she knew who she was with and he had no reason to worry about Randy, he already knew that, but her thoughtfulness touched him. Dave lifted her to her feet and took her hand and led her to the dance floor.

Randy went to the bar and ordered a shot of JD and watched Lexi and Dave as they danced. He watched Dave behind Lexi his hands running over her body and knew, they were lovers, she had slept with him, it was in their body language, they way they moved.

"Randy your face is very expressive, you better wipe that look off your face, seems your supposed Personal assistant is with someone else, but I would be glad to take care of your needs tonight."

Randy turned to find Crystal standing behind him. He didn't say a word, he just turned and walked off.

Crystal smirked. "You can run Randy, but it wont do you any good, I'll have you before its said and done." she muttered to herself.
