Angel slowly opened her eyes the following morning and smiled lightly knowing that she had a good nights rest from the attack she had endure the night before. She remembered the attack all too well, as she also thanks God that Randy saved her from any REAL damage.
FLASHBACK
Fifteen minutes later Angel had defeated Torrie Wilson for the 1-2-3 after an amazing match. The girls smiled and shook hands in fair sportsmanship Torrie then rose Angel's arm in victory. Suddenly Triple H's music hit the Titantron and the crowd was surprised as this. Cole looked and said, "Oh no Tazz, Triple H is here."
"I guess he wants revenge on Angel for what she did at the Rumble and on Raw."
Angel immediately looked at Torrie and said, "Get out of here, I can handle this."
"Angel, I can't leave you here alone with him," said Torrie as she watched for Triple H to appear, "He is dangerous, he could serious hurt you. I am not leaving you."
"Go! Don't worry, if it gets too much John will come out and help. Now go before it is too late, warn John that Triple H is here." Torrie hesitated at first since Angel was her friend, but knew that Angel could handle herself pretty well, so she slipped out of the ring and went to the back. Angel watched the Titantron awaiting for Hunter to appear, but suddenly she was attacked from behind by Hunter.
"Oh man," said Cole, "can you believe him? He has to attack a woman from behind." Angel slowly made her way back to her and tried to fight back, but Hunter then knocked her down again. "I can not believe him, he is attacking a woman! Just because he was embarrassed by her at the Rumble and on Raw, that does not mean he should attack her like this!"
"I agree with you Cole," said Tazz, "this is not how you handle it."
Triple H picked Angel again, but then clotheslined her down as he taunted her, "You think you can embarrass me like the way you did? Think again bitch!" He picked her up and Irish whipped her to the ropes, when she came back to him, he gave her a devastating spinebuster. Angel screamed out in pain as Hunter laughed at her, "Did that hurt? Good! You deserved for embarrassing me! I am going to make sure that you never embarrass me or anyone else again!" He kicked her a few times in the ribs just for the hell of it.
"Oh man," said Tazz, "that was a bad spinebuster, Angel must really be hurting." Suddenly Hunter picked Angel up and set her up for the Pedigree. Hunter smiled evilly as he knew that the damage was about to be done for good.
"Oh no, don't do this Hunter!" screamed Cole, "Where is Cena, he should have been here by now!"
"I don't know Cole, this is not like Cena." Suddenly Randy came out of the crowd and attacked Hunter, causing Hunter to release Angel, making her fall to the ground. "Cole it's Randy Orton! What is he doing here?"
"I don't know Tazz, but I am glad that someone is helping Angel out."
Randy then tossed Hunter out of the ring after giving Hunter a bad beat down, Hunter got even more angry as he was embarrassed again. As he was making his way to the back, he was yelling at Randy, "It's not over Randy! It is SO not over! See you on Raw!"
Randy looked at him as he said, "See you on Raw you son of a bitch! It's not over Hunter! You think you can attack a woman? Believe me, you are going to pay for this!" When Hunter disappeared to the back, Randy immediately went to Angel to check on her, he gently helped her to her feet, but she was so lightheaded from the attack, that her knees buckled, but Randy caught her and held her up. "You OK?"
Angel looked up at him and said, "Ow…" Just then she realized that it was Randy and not John that had rescued her from Hunter. "Randy? Where is John?"
"I don't know," said Randy, "can you walk?"
"I can, but my head is really spinning…"
"I understand," said Randy as he and Angel made their way to the ropes, he got out of the ring first as Angel gently slid under the ropes. Randy then scooped Angel into his arms, she wrapped her arms around his neck as Randy carried her to the back. Angel rested her head on Randy's shoulder since she was really feeling dizzy. "Don't worry Angel, I've got you now."
"I wouldn't have it any other way," said Angel as they made their way to the locker room, he took her to the trainer's room.
END FLASHBACK
She stretched her muscles and then noticed the arm that was across her stomach as well as she realized that she was not wearing anything. She smiled lightly and thought it was John's arm that was around her, she lifted up the sheet… and to her surprise she noticed that the arm had a tattoo on the forearm. She knew that John did not have a tattoo, and she noticed that the arm was tanner and a little thinner. Just then Angel realized that it was not John's arm that was around her and she said, "Oh no… this can not be happening…" Sure enough when she turned her head to face the person beside her, to her horror she saw Randy Orton lying beside her. "Oh my GOD!"
She immediately flew out of the bed causing Randy to wake up from the peaceful sleep. Randy looked up at Angel and said with confusion, "What is going on?" Angel had wrapped herself with the sheet, but Randy still thought her beautiful. "What's wrong?"
"What's wrong?" said Angel, "What's wrong? Randy, you and I slept together! Randy, I am dating John Cena! I should not be having sex with you! What happened last night should NOT have happened!" She walked up to the window and looked out admiring the view of the city, she could not believe what she had done. She cheated on John with Randy, and she always believed in fidelity.
Randy looked at her as he stood up and slipped on a pair of boxers, he then made his way up to Angel and wrapped his arms around her. "Angel, I know last night should not have happened…" He then turned her around to face him, "but it did happen and I for one do not regret that it happened."
"Randy… I am in a relationship, and I should not be sleeping with another man-"
"Angel, I love you."
That got Angel's attention and she looked at him with surprise, "What did you say?"
"Angel… I am in love with you." He smiled lightly as he looked into her beautiful blue eyes, "I have been in love with you since the moment I met you… but I did not realize it until this past Monday when I saw you on this past Raw."
FLASHBACK
A few minutes later Angel was seen again making her way toward the parking lot and she was all smiles because of what she had just a few moments before. She made a couple quick glances behind her since she had a feeling that Evolution would be coming after her. As she continued to make her way down the hallway, she was suddenly stopped when she felt someone grab her arm and when they turned around it was revealed to have been Randy. "Randy!" said Angel with surprise since she thought it was a member of Evolution, "As great as it is to see you, I need to go before Evolution comes to kick my ass and end my career." She tried to get away but Randy still held onto her arm.
Randy looked at with her shock, as he said, "It was you? You helped me last night?"
Angel sighed as she knew that he was not going to let her go, "Yes Randy it was me."
"But we saw you leave the arena with Cena."
"I came back."
"Were you the one who showed the footage from the wedding?"
"No," said Angel, "I don't know who did that." She kept looking back since she knew that Evolution would be coming to look for her. "Look Orton, I need to go before Evolution or even Bischoff for that matter come after me." She tried to leave but again Randy held her by the arm, and she forgotten how strong he was as she tried to wrench her arm around of his grasp. She looked into his blue eyes, and she noticed that her heart was beating faster as she gave up trying to fight him. She shook off her feelings for him, but she could not control her heart beat.
"Just one question before I let you go," said Randy as he looked into her beautiful blue eyes that reminded him of sapphires. He could not believe that he never noticed how beautiful she really was, he then looked at her lips and wondered what it would be like to kiss her. He shook it off as he knew that she was waiting for his question. "Why did you help me?" He released her arm and waited for his answer.
Angel smiled lightly as she looked at him and sighed lightly. She took the title off his right shoulder and then looked at him. She removed the tie and jacket, then opened two of the buttons on his shirt and with satisfaction she placed the title on his left shoulder. As she wiped the title she looked at him and said, "I guess because… old habits die hard." She then stepped back and said, "Perfect. You are looking good champ, like you always did." She smiled lightly as she then walked away, but suddenly a couple moments later she came back and walked up to him and wrapped her arms around him hugging him tightly. Randy immediately wrapped his arms around her and noticed how perfectly she fitted his arms.
They held each other for a moment and when they broke apart, they looked into each other's eyes and out of no where, Randy lowered his lips to hers and kissed her. Angel was shocked, but suddenly felt herself kiss back as Randy pulled her closer to him. Randy slowly traced his tongue along her lips until she opened them and granted him entrance letting his tongue enter her mouth. Their tongues did a dance that lovers had done for years as Angel ran her hands through Randy's hair. A few moments later they broke apart and Angel looked at him with surprise as she realized what she had just done. "Angel I-"
"There she is!" screamed Triple H as he and Evolution made there way toward them.
Angel sighed as she realized that she had wasted too much time, "Shit, gotta go!" With that Angel ran as fast as she could toward the car that was waiting for her, with Evolution not to far behind her. She quickly hopped into the car and they drove off as fast as it could, as the car drove off she said to herself, "Bye Randy… I love you."
After Angel had ran off to get away from Evolution, Randy was in shock at what he had done. He kissed Angel, he did not know what came over him but he could not help himself. He placed a hand over his lips and could still feel her kiss on them and he savored it. Suddenly he realized that once again Angel had left him again and he felt miserable, he closed his eyes as he remembered the feeling of her near him, he felt happy and complete. She made his heart race and slow down at the same time, and now that she was gone, he felt like he had nothing. He thought of all the times he had with Angel before he got with Stacy, even when he was WITH Stacy, he always enjoyed being the company of Angel more that his own girlfriend. When he was supposed to marry Stacy, he felt that he could not do it without Angel there and he did not know how he was going to make it on Raw without Angel….
Suddenly he opened his eyes as he came to the shocking realization, "Oh my God… I'm in love with Angel…"
END FLASHBACK
"When you left me after I proposed to Stacy, I did not know how I was going to survive without you. After everything with Stacy went down, I did not know what I was going to do… and then when I saw you on Raw and we kissed, I realized then and there that I was in love with you. That was the other reason that I went to Smackdown… I wanted to tell you that I was in love with you."
"Randy…" said Angel as she looked with shock and surprise, "you're in love with me?"
Randy smiled as he said, "Yes, I am in love with you."
Angel could not believe that Randy had admitted that he was in love with her, and he had been for a long time. Since the moment they met, but it took her leaving Raw to go to Smackdown for him to realize it. She looked at Randy and she actually saw the love in his eyes and she suddenly felt her heart go a mile a minute as she realized that she was still in love with Randy, but before she could say anything her cell phone rang. She went up to her phone and answered it, "Hello?"
"Hey baby," said John on the other line.
"Hi John," said Angel as she looked at Randy, "what's going on?"
"I was calling to see where you are."
"I am in Torrie's hotel room," Angel lied, "I stayed with her last night since I was angry with you for what happened and I forgot the hotel key since I left it with you."
"I understand," said John, "listen, I am sorry about last night. I should not have let Dawn Marie distract me from coming down to your rescue from Triple H. It was a huge mistake and I will regret it for the rest of my life. Listen, can you come to the hotel room so we can talk about this?"
Angel smiled as she said, "Yeah I will be there in five minutes."
"Great," said John, "I love you."
"Love you too John," said Angel, "I will see you soon."
"OK, bye."
"Bye," said Angel and she hung up. She looked at Randy when she sensed him staring at her, "What?"
"Why did you lie to him about where you were?"
"Because," said Angel as she got dressed, "it is better this way, if he never knows that I was here with you."
"Angel…" He tried to get her to talk to him but she rose her hand to silent him.
"Look Randy," said Angel, "as far as we are concerned, last night never happened. I love John with all of my heart and soul, and I am going to be with him. You made your decision when you chose to propose to Stacy. I am sorry that it was a lie in order to help Triple H get your title, in which backfired since you are still the champion, but you still made the choice to be with her, despite the fact that I have been there for you since our days in Evolution. I think it is best if after this coming Monday, since I am going to Raw to get back at Triple H for attacking me, that we never see each other ever again." She tried to leave, but Randy grabbed her arm to stop her. "Randy please don't do this."
"But Angel," said Randy as he tried to prevent her from leaving him again, "I love you."
She sighed as she knew that this would not be easy, she wretched her arm from his grip as she sought peace, "I am sorry Randy, but you realized that you were in love with me a little bit too late." She then left the room and when she closed the door, she felt her heart break since she knew that leaving him would be the best thing. "Goodbye Randy." She then went to her hotel room to begin her life with John.
Randy could not believe what had happened, the love of his life had just walked out of him after the wonderful night that they shared. She told him that last night had never happened, and that she was going to be with John. He then looked at the bed where he and Angel had made love the night before and he knew that he could not give up on them. He loved Angel more than anything, and he did see the love in her eyes before her cell phone rang. He knew that Angel loved him too, she just did not want to admit it. "Angel loves me, I saw it in her eyes and I am not going to stop until she and I are together again." He then sat down and began to plan how he was going to get his Angel back.
