Monday, May 4, 2009: 10:15 P.M.

I applied the last bit of lip gloss to my lips, walked out of the bathroom, and put my heels on. I noticed Randy, who had been getting ready himself, staring at me.

"Are you okay?" I ask him.

He snapped out of his trance. "Yeah...I'm fine."

He slips on his other shoe. "Are you ready to go?"

"I was ready before you."

We arrive downstairs in the hotel lobby to see Maryse, Ted, Michelle, John, Eve, and Cody waiting for us.

"Finally, you guys are here." says John.

"I'm surprised you were quicker than us, Cena." I reply.

"Shut up, Smith."

"Make me."

"I can-"

"Alright you two, break it up." Eve says, stopping a huge argument from breaking out between us.

"Can we go now?" Michelle asks, being impatient as always.

"Yes we can, but the 2009 Cadillac Escalade I rented has only seven seats, so someone has to sit on someone else's lap." Ted replies.

Because I'm the smallest person out of the eight of us, everyone looks at me.

"Thanks a lot, Ted." I say, rolling my eyes before heading outside.

We finally arrive at the bar after the long car ride, in which I sat on Randy's lap. Everyone files out of the car. As I exit the car, I notice that other WWE Superstars and Divas are here too, like R-Truth and The Bella Twins.

"Look, Marissa." Maryse says. "It's the Bella Bitches."

"No bar fights, Maryse."

"You're the one we should worry about getting into a bar fight." John says.

"It was only one bar fight with Victoria. One time."

"History can repeat itself."

I'm about ready to punch John in the face when Randy gently grabs my arm. "She won't get into a bar fight, John."

We walk into the bar and take seats at a table, but Michelle and John leave quickly to go dance.

"At least I won't have to worry about punching him in the face." I say.

"At least until he gets back." Randy replies as Maryse, Eve, Ted, and Cody grab a tray of shots, so they can see who can drink the most shots.

"This isn't going to end well." I say referring to what the four other people at the table are doing.

"Let's go before we get dragged into this."

Randy and I head to the bar area and see R-Truth and sit next to him.

"What's up, guys?" He asks.

"Nothing much." I say. "Avoiding the shot drinking contest going on at our table."

He laughs. "Who'd you guys come with?"

"Maryse, Eve, Cena, Michelle McCool, Ted DiBiase, and Cody Rhodes." Randy tells Truth. "What about you?"

"Jericho, Adam, and The Bellas."

I look at Randy with a worried look. "Chris Jericho?"

"Yeah. The self-professed Best in the World. Punk got invited too, but everyone forgot he was straight-edge."

I chuckled. The Bella Twins, who are too drunk to notice me or Randy, grab Truth by each of his arms and drag him away.

"Bye guys." He says before getting dragged away.

I sit there alone with Randy. "Well that...was awkward." I say.

"It sure was." He motions to the bartender. "Two rum and cokes please."

I look at him. "You remembered I drink that?"

"I'm the one who got you started on it. Remember?"

"Oh yeah. I forgot." The bartender hands us our drinks. "Thanks."

"No problem. I didn't hurt you when I DDT'd you did I?"

"Nope. You were rather gentle with me." I hold up my glass. "To the creative team."

We clink our glasses together.

"To the creative team." Randy says before we start drinking our drinks. "And I was trying to be gentle with you."

"Oh. Okay. You want to play Pool after we're done?"

"Marissa, are you asking me to kick your ass in Pool?"

"No...we both know I'll be kicking your ass in Pool."

"Whatever-"

Someone coughs to get our attention. We both turn to see Chris Jericho.

"Randal, do you mind leaving for a few minutes? I need to talk to Marissa alone." Chris says.

I look at Randy with a worried look. Chris Jericho was my asshole of an ex-boyfriend that I dated for almost a year, who cheated on me with Morgan Ouellet, Maryse's sister. Ever since we broke up, Chris has taken every chance he could to criticize me and still tries to act like we are still together. Randy knew all about my bad history with Chris.

"I'm not leaving, Christopher. Whatever you need to say to her you can say to me." Randy sternly tells Chris.

"Marissa, tell Orton to stay out of our business." Chris tells me.

"No," I say. "Randy can and will be staying here with me."

"Okay then. I just wanted to tell you that you're still mine. You can't go running around with other people doing whatever the hell you want, especially with the likes of him."

"Actually, Chris." I say. "I can. I'm not yours anymore. I'm not going to be yours again. You are a lying, cheating, abusive bastard and I want you out of my life."

He grabs me by my arm. "Okay, but I will scare off any man who develops an interest in you. You will never have another boyfriend again while you are with the WWE."

"Actually," Randy says. "She already does, and you won't be scaring him off." Randy kisses me on the lips, surprising me and Jericho.

Chris walks away upset. Randy releases the kiss.

"Why'd you do that, Randy?" I ask.

"Because Chris needs to move on and...I have feelings for you."

I look at him and blush. "Well then...I um guess we are dating then."

We walked back to our table together to see Ted, Cody, Maryse, and Eve very drunk.

"Who won?" I ask as Randy and I sit back down.

"Maryse won. Did you get into a bar fight?" John replies.

"John," Randy says. "Don't tease my girlfriend like that."

"Sorry. I won't tease your girlfriend like that again." John stops for a second and thinks. "Wait…girlfriend?"

"Yeah."

The other people at the table all look at Randy.

"No freaking way." Michelle quietly says.

"So…" Cody points at Randy. "You." Cody points at me. "And her?"

Randy nods.

"What the hell did we miss?" Maryse asks.

"Well…" Randy says. "Marissa and I are dating."

Ted starts laughing. "That's a funny joke, guys. You were fighting like last week. There's no way you're dating."

The rest of our friends start laughing with Ted.

I speak up. "We're not kidding."

"What?" The others say in shock.

"We really are dating."

"Oh my god. Oh my god." Eve says. "They're not kidding."

"Holy shit!" Ted says. "You're being serious?"

"One hundred percent being serious." Randy says before wrapping his arms around me. "Isn't that right, Marissa?"

"It sure is." I say with a smile.

"When did this happen?" Maryse asks.

"Like ten minutes ago."

"Woah."

The whole group goes silent, trying to process what had just happened.

"You think it was too soon?" I quietly ask Randy.

Randy grins at me. "Absolutely not."

"So…" Michelle says slowly. "Does that mean this whole drama from the past few years is over? Since you're dating now?"

"Yeah."

"From bitter enemies to lovers." Ted says. "What a story."

I look at Randy. "I don't think we were ever bitter enemies."

"Maybe just a couple of people who weren't getting along." Randy says.

"I'm still having trouble believing this whole thing." John says.

Randy smiles. "I'm not." He kisses me. "Believe me now?"
