Chapter 9
The ride back to the hotel for John had been….loud. The girls had sat in the back of the car and had talked non stop since they sat down. Melody seemed to have forgotten that he was even in the car, he finally got to see the Melody that Becki talked about and he had to say he was amused. One incident had fully shown her carefree attitude and how protective she was of Becki.
"Show me" Melody ordered and had pulled her sleeves up before Becki could protest.
John looked in the rear view mirror but quickly looked away when he saw Becki glance nervously in his direction.
"Mel" Becki whispered, she motioned with her head in Johns direction when Melody looked at her.
Melody shrugged and continued "They're looking a lot better"
Becki looked at her friend stunned at her choice of conversation in Johns presence. Noticing her look Melody continued "You should know by now I don't care Bex, it's not like anyone in the car doesn't know what I'm talking about"
"Melody!" Becki whispered through gritted teeth, she looked over at John, he was pretending not to listen and Melody was still ignoring her protests.
Melody ran her fingers over the scars on her friends left arm "I'm sorry"
"Wasn't your fault Mel"
"I swear" Melody said pulling her friend into a huge hug "If anyone touches you ever again I'll rip their throats out"
The conversation had got Johns attention, he couldn't deny that he wanted to know where Becki's scars had come from but he couldn't help but laugh at Melody's comment.
"Bex you never told me she was your hit man!"
"I didn't know she was" Becki laughed
"Well remind me not to touch you! I'd like to keep my throat"
Melody seemed to have got over her embarrassment around John, she smirked as he pulled into the hotel parking lot and got out to get the bags, turning to Becki she said loud enough that John would hear "you know I don't think either of us would mind if he touched you".
John was carrying the suitcases up to Becki's hotel room when he saw Randy Orton heading in his direction.
"Hey who's moving" Randy pointed to the suitcases
"Hey man, here take one" he threw a case to Randy
"When did I become your servant?" Randy looked past John "Hey Bex, who's your friend?"
Becki caught up with John, she still had a red tinge to her cheeks after Melody's little comment in the car.
"Hey Randy, this is Melody" she turned to Melody and burst out laughing, it seemed Melody had spotted Randy and was heading in the opposite direction at top speed.
John laughed "Hey Randy it looks like you've lost your charms"
"what did I do?" he asked looking confused
"Nothing" Becki hit John on the arm as he continued to laugh "She just gets shy, she's a fan"
"Right" Randy looked in the direction Melody went "Can't say I've met a fan that's ran away before"
"I'll go find her" Becki handed a still laughing John her key card and went in search of her friend
"oh shut up man" Randy snapped at John.
Still laughing John replied "Well you do call yourself a lady killer"
Becki found Melody freaking out round the corner.
"OH MY GOD"
Laughing Becki replied "You cant do that every time you meet someone Mel"
"You do know who that was?"
"Um yes!"
"I can't believe I just did that"
"Well it serves you right for that not so subtle comment back in the car"
Melody smirked "Ah come on it's true"
"Excuse me?"
"You like him!"
"I do not!"
"uh huh sure you don't"
"Whatever! Lets get back to our room"
"will he be there?"
"who?"
"you know who!"
"Voldemort?"
"Shut up!" Melody whispered "Randy Orton!"
"Probably yeah, he was helping John with the cases"
"I'm not going till he's gone" Melody crossed her arms and made her best stubborn face.
"ok" Becki replied and headed towards her room.
"Where are you going?"
"My room"
"you can't leave me!" Melody looked panicked
It was Becki's turn to smirk "But you don't want to come if Randy is gonna be there"
"Becki" Melody protested
"Yeeesssss"
"The guy is on my desktop in nothing but a towel!"
"I know!" Becki laughed
"Then don't make me face him"
Becki sighed "wait here"
John was sat on Becki's bed waiting for the girls to return, he was still laughing at Randy who was perplexed by Melody's reaction to him.
"Seriously stop laughing" Randy snapped as he fell onto the sofa
"Dude it's funny"
"Whatever"
"She was like that with me too man, its no big deal"
"Didn't say it was, it's just a first"
John started laughing again
"What!"
"It bothers you!"
"Nah it doesn't" Randy protested
Before John could respond Becki walked in laughing.
"Hey, you find her?" John asked
"Yeah" she replied with a smile
John looked behind her "Where is she then?"
"Hiding" Becki laughed before she continued "She's refusing to come in until Randy leaves!"
Both Becki and John laughed at the look on Randy's face.
Randy ran his hands over his face and chest, looking down at himself he asked "Have I turned into a monster or something?"
John fell back on the bed laughing as Randy stood up and checked himself in a mirror. Becki was trying not to laugh but with John laughing so much she couldn't help it.
"You look just fine Rand" Becki giggled
"Yeah fantastic!" John gave him the thumbs up from his position on the bed.
Randy gave him a dirty look that said 'yeah funny' then flipped him off which caused John to laugh even more.
"Ok I'm gonna tell you something but you gotta promise not to use it against Mel at a later date!"
"Do we both have to promise?" John raised an eyebrow
Smirking Becki replied as she sat on the bed next to him "You have a choice, promise or get out of my room!"
Pouting John replied "Spoil sport, okay I promise"
"Yeah me too" Randy added
"Ok, Mel has been a wrestling fan since she was five, she's never met any of you guys and has only been to one show before. You Randy happen to be her favourite"
"So she runs away from him? Figures!" John smirked
"Oh shush I wasn't finished. She's more embarrassed around you as she has a particular picture of you on her desktop at work"
Randy cheered up "Really? Which one?"
"You in a towel"
"Again which one?" John asked
Becki smacked him the stomach.
"Hey!"
"Shut up then!" Becki smiled sweetly
It was Randy's turn to laugh at John who was rubbing his stomach, John just flipped him off.
"She'll be ok tomorrow once she's had chance to get over the shock" Becki said as she stood up.
Randy had a devilish smirk on his face, "What!" Becki asked
"Do me a favour, when I call your cell tomorrow bring her over to my room"
"Why?" Becki asked raising an eyebrow
"You'll see" Randy replied as he left the room.
John was in his hotel room lying on his bed flipping through the TV channels, when he couldn't find anything to watch he grabbed his cell phone and dialled Becki's number.
"Hello"
"what'cha doin?"
"Watching TV and listening to Mel snore"
"Sounds like fun"
"It's great! You should try it"
"Wanna come keep me company seein as Mel has gone to sleep on you?"
"What do you wanna do?"
"How about we hit the nearest blockbuster and grab some movies"
"ooh we get to go out and find movies, not just the ones on the TV?"
"Yeah smart ass, you keep telling me your fed up of hotel pay per view!"
"I am! Give me five minutes and I'll be there"
"Cool, see ya"
"Bye"
Becki threw on a pair of baggy grey pants, she rooted in her suitcase to find a top, she had been sat in her pyjama's when John called. Finding a pink halter top, she put it on then pulled on her black and pink FCUK jacket and zipped it up. Walking over to the bed she gently shook Melody,
"Mel I'm going out for a while, I'll be back later okay?"
"Yeah whatever" Melody mumbled as she turned over and went back to sleep.
Shrugging Becki walked over to the mirror, quickly she brushed her hair and picked up her key card. After a couple of minutes searching for her bag amongst Melody's mess, she found it and headed over to John's room.
John and Becki entered John's hotel room armed with lots of junk food and two movies.
"I still can't believe you worked for Blockbuster" John said as he dumped the bags of food onto his bed
"Why? What's wrong with working for Blockbuster?"
"Nothing! I just cant see you working there"
Becki stood with her hands on her hips "And why not?"
John held up his hands "ok ok! You seem too smart to work there"
"Are you trying to offend me?"
John laughed "No"
"There is nothing wrong with working for Blockbuster! And for your information lots of smart people work there"
"You know your cute when you get all stubborn!" John smirked at Becki who turned a shade of pink.
"So can we watch the movies now?" John asked
"Yeah" Becki replied jumping onto the bed.
