A Kiss Or Two
Matt came out of the doctor's room with a smile on his face.
"So? How is he?" Vic asked Matt as he returned.
"The doctor said he had a broken rib but he would be fine, it's the least we could have hoped for," Matt replied smiling. "So who wants to go to visit Jeff? I've already been," He asked the group.
"I'll go, I've known Jeff the longest, excluding you, Matt, of course," Amy said, standing up from the hospital's couch.
…
When Amy returned, Aubrey decided to go next, which she did alone.
"Hey Jeff, so how are you feeling now?" She asked as she was stood next to his hospital bed.
"I'm alright, my ribs hurt a little. The doctors said one was broken. Damned JBL," Jeff cursed.
"I know, Elle and I have decided that we are going to go after JBL and Sam next week. Rumor has it that they'll both be in the ring together cutting a promo so we're going take our chance then." Aubrey said with an evil yet cocky grin on her face.
"Ha, no your not" Jeff said sternly.
"Yes, we are Jeff," Aubrey said slowly, but just as sternly as Jeff.
"You can't go after JBL, look what he did to me. He's still double your size and even if you have Elle with you, he's still much bigger! Just think of what he'll do to you and Elle given the opportunity," Jeff said.
"Jeff, I'll be fine. We'll be fine. Just don't worry about us, and instead, worry about when your rib will be better," Aubrey said smiling
"Okay, I suppose I won't be able to stop you anyway,"
"Damned straight."
"Thought so," He said in a whisper grabbing Aubrey's hand and squeezing it tightly while a nurse stuck a needle in his arm. Aubrey just laughed a little.
"Are you laughing at me?" He asked her.
"Uh, no of course not," She said, trying to sound innocent.
"Right," he said smiling and she just laughed harder.
"Ok, I'd better go and let the others see you," Aubrey said, looking at the time.
"Ok, I'll see you later then."
"Yep, I'll see you too."
As soon as Aubrey left, Elle and Randy walked in and straight for Jeff.
"Two people? I was only expecting one to come in," Jeff commented.
"Yeah, well visiting times are nearly up so we thought we'd start sending people two at a time since everyone wants to see you," Elle smiled.
"Wow, I feel loved!" Jeff exclaimed, making Elle and Randy laugh.
"How do you feel mate?" Randy asked looking down at the man in the hospital bed.
"I've been better. Oh, and Randy sorry about the hag, uh, I mean, Sam" He said smiling. Elle and Randy just started laughing.
"So none of you liked her?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Um, well, basically, no," Elle and Jeff said in unison and Randy laughed a little.
"Well, it might take a while to forget about her but I'll move on, it helps to know that no one liked her. Believe it or not, but I've actually found someone I'm quite interested in," Randy lightly laughed, not noticing Elle's head shot up.
"A bit early for that don't you think? Oh well, it's your choice, who is it by the way?" Jeff asked.
"Oh, no one in particular, they probably don't like me anyway." He replied quickly, trying not to give anything away. Elle just rolled her eyes, but not discreetly enough to miss Randy's eye.
"What?" Randy asked Elle.
"Nothing," She replied quickly.
"So, changing subject, do either of you guys know when I can leave?" Jeff asked the two people in front of him.
"I have no idea, I'll go check if you want," Elle volunteered.
"Yeah, ok, thanks," Jeff replied, watching Elle leave the room. "So Randy, who is the "lucky" girl that you're interested in?"
"What? Oh, um," Randy started, and then used his eyes to point where Elle went and smiled.
"Oh, really, so it's Elle," Jeff said, smiling back.
"Uh no," He said quickly as he saw Elle coming back into the room.
"Why so quiet? You two weren't talking about me are you?" She asked, jokingly.
"No, of course not," The two men said in unison.
"Sure. Anyway, the doctor said they just need to bandage Jeff up and the he can go home."
…
After they bandaged Jeff up they all returned to the hotel.
Elle and Aubrey shared a room, of course.
"What are we going to do? I'm really bored. I hate sitting around doing nothing and that's exactly what we're doing, sitting and staring into space," Elle said with no emotion in her voice. Aubrey just started laughing.
"Let's go to a club or something," Aubrey suggested, she loved dancing with a passion.
"Okay, sure, sounds great!" Elle happily agreed.
"Well then, I'm going to go take a shower and get ready. Since you've been ready to do anything for the past hour why don't you call Trish, the girls and I suppose the guys too and see what they're doing," Aubrey said walking into the bathroom.
"Okay" Elle said, reaching into her pocket for her cell. "Hey? Where's my phone? Aubrey!"
"Yeah?" Someone yelled from within the bathroom.
"Where's my phone? I gave it to you to take the pictures and you never gave it back!"
"Oh, well I don't have it; I gave it to Randy to look at the pictures of Sam and JBL!" Aubrey yelled back.
"WHAT! You're telling me you basically gave my phone away?"
"Sorry, I suppose so," She opened the bathroom door slightly so only her face was visible, "Maybe Randy still has it? How about you go down and see if he does?"
"I don't know where his room is!" Elle replied, sounding a bit pissed off.
"Well, if you walk around the hotel long enough I'm sure you'll find him eventually."
"Wow, thanks Aub," Elle responded sarcastically, "but it looks like I have no other choice, so I'll see you later," Elle said as she pocketed one of the hotel keys and walked outside into the hallway.
Elle walked down the hotel's hall, knocking on each door to see if any of her friends were in that one.
"Hello? Oh Elle, what are you doing here?" Asked Ashley as she opened her door.
"Oh thank God I found you! I've been to six other rooms. Hey, can I borrow your mobile? I've lost mine."
"Um, sure, come on in." Ashley welcomed Elle in. "Here," she said as she handed Elle her small silver phone, "Don't be too long because I don't really want a long phone bill this month!"
"Don't worry; I'll take just a second." Elle replied as she dialed in her mobile's number.
One ring went, a good sign of it being on, two rings went, then someone picked up.
"Um, hi," The other end said hesitantly.
"Randy is that you?" Elle asked.
"Yeah, actually it is."
"Good, ok, it's me Elle. Now, I have a small feeling that you have my phone," She said smiling.
"Really now, what makes you think that?" He laughed, "Where are you? I was outside your place a second ago to return the phone but I got no answer after I knocked."
"Oh, I'm at Ash's and Aubrey would have been in the shower. Where are you now?" Elle asked quickly.
"I'm still outside your room."
"Ok, you stay put; I'll be there in a second." She said as she hung up Ashley's phone.
"Thanks Ash!" She yelled out, "I got to go, I'll phone you later." Elle said as she put the phone on a table near by and ran outside the hotel room to see Randy Orton resting his back on her hotel's room's door with her phone in one of his hands.
"Randy!" Elle exclaimed, catching his attention.
"Fancy meeting you here," Randy said smiling, "Here's your phone, sorry about that, I must have pocketed it earlier without realizing what I was doing," He said as he handed Elle her phone.
"Thank you so much! I thought I had lost it!" She exclaimed as she hugged Randy in gratitude. Though a bit taken back, Randy just hugged back happily. "Um, would you like to come in for a bit?" Elle asked, as she opened her hotel door.
"Sure, why not?"
As he did, Aubrey walked out of the bathroom in just a towel, unaware of Randy's presence, "Hey, Elle, back so soon? I just left my shirt out h-" She lost her voice when she realized that Randy was in the room, watching her. "Oh my freaking God!" Aubrey screamed as she ran back in the bathroom slamming the door shut.
Elle just burst out laughing. "Oh poor Aub, I wouldn't have brought him in here if I knew you were going to come out of the bathroom half naked, in a towel," Elle laughed as she picked Aubrey's outfit off from her bed and walked over to the bathroom to hand it to her.
"Um, maybe I should go," Randy said awkwardly, "I don't want to intrude."
"No, no Randy, stay," Aubrey said as she exited from the bathroom, fully dressed. She was wearing a pair of tight blue jeans that flared at the bottom and a hot pink tank top that ended above her belly button. She had applied black eyeliner and had hot pink eye shadow with light pink glitter on her cheeks and eyelids.
"God, you got a pink theme going don't you?" Elle laughed. "There's just one problem, you look better than me now! I have to go get changed again, so I'll be right back, you all stay put!" She commanded as she ripped through her suit case until she found what she wanted and ran into the bathroom with it.
"So are you guys going anywhere?" Randy asked, looking at Aubrey.
"Yeah, duh! I mean, um, no we are just dressing up for no reason!" Aubrey said sarcastically, smiling. "Elle and I are going out to a club tonight, want to come?" She asked.
"Of course, it'll be fun. Is anyone else going?" Randy asked.
"Well, no, not yet, that's why Elle needed her phone, so she could phone everyone and ask them if they wanted to come," Aubrey replied. "Wow, you got changed quickly," Aubrey said as she watched Elle return from the bathroom in brand new attire. Now she was wearing blue jeans like Aubrey's, a black T-shirt with very short sleeves that said 'A little Drama Never Hurt Anyone' in bold, white letters. She had a small amount of black eyeliner and mascara on and had put a little but of glitter on her eyelids and cheeks. She was also wearing some beautiful, black high heels that made her a couple inches taller.
"Yeah, I'm super-quick," She replied smiling brightly.
"Oh, I see you have glitter on too," Aubrey said, admiring the sparkles coming off her friend's face.
"Well I figured if you put it on, so will I," Elle replied smiling.
"Oh, now both of you are making me look bad, I'd better go to my room and get changed now," Randy said, popping back into the conversation. Making both the girls smile and laugh.
"Ok, bye Randy, we'll meet you in the lobby in around twenty minutes. Bring the guys too, we'll try to bring the girls," Aubrey said.
"Ok, bye Aub, bye Elle," He said as he waved the girls goodbye before leaving the hotel room.
Elle called the girls like she was supposed to, and asked if they would like to go out to a club and Trish, Ashley and Victoria agreed. Amy had said she was going out with Adam that night.
…
They walked down to the lobby twenty minutes later like they has said and found Trish, Vic, Ash, John, Randy, Jeff, and Matt waiting for them.
"Hey guys," Elle said when they reached them.
"Hey," John said checking out the two girls before him. Jeff, Matt and Randy were doing the same, even though Randy had already seen them earlier.
"When you guys have finished checking them out, we'll go," Trish said smiling at the boys.
…
They all went to a club downtown called 'The Rave' and were having the time of their life.
They walked in and went straight for the dance floor. All the girls were dancing together and the guys were watching their every move.
Trish went and grabbed John and pulled him to dance with her. Ashley did the same to Matt while Vic danced with some cute guy she met at the club.
Elle and Aubrey took a break from the dancing and were watching everyone else grind to the music.
"Hey, look, poor Randy and Jeff are the loners of the group. Then again, if I was Jeff, I would want to be rather careful with the rib of his," Elle mentioned as she watched Jeff and Randy chat in the middle of the dance floor.
…
"Come on Randy, I dare you. Just ask her for one dance," Jeff willed the young Orton on.
"Nah, what if she says no? I'll look like a complete retard!"
"Come on Randy, why not?"
"No way, not yet, maybe later."
"Ok fine, I suppose I'll have to ask her for you," Jeff said as he started to walk towards the girls.
"No! Look, I'll ask Aubrey first, and you can go with Elle, then we'll swap. You get who you like and vice versa. Okay? I just can't ask her first up."
"Fine."
…
"Hey Aubrey look who's coming our way," Elle said, referring to Jeff and Randy who were coming towards them. "Howdy boys," Elle said smiling at the two.
"Hey," Jeff said. He glanced at Randy and then looked back at the girls, "Sorry Randy, I just can't wait. Aubrey, would you like to dance?" He asked.
"Jeff!" Randy exclaimed.
"Oh fine, sorry Aub, Elle would you like a dance?"
"Um sure, of course," She said scrunching her eyebrows together slightly.
"Want to switch later?" Elle whispered into Aubrey's ear and she nodded, smiling as she walked off with Randy.
Jeff danced with Elle for about 15minutes before taking a break, leaving Elle alone at one of the tables as he went off in search of Aubrey. Once again Elle was sitting and watching everyone dance, only this time instead of Aubrey opposite her, she had no one. She heard the current song end and Randy and Aubrey finally took a break. Aubrey walked slowly over to Jeff and Randy joined Elle at her table. Elle's attention was no longer on the dancing, but instead, the man in front of her.
Finally Randy broke the awkward silence between the two. "So, Elle, would you like a dance with the Legend Killer?" He asked putting on his cocky grin.
"How could I say no to Randy Orton?" Elle asked, raising her eyebrows.
"Well, let's go then," He said smiling, as he grabbed Elle's hand that was resting on the table and pulled her off to the dance floor.
…
Jeff slowly walked over to Aubrey.
"Hey you, how are you feeling?" She asked putting a hand on his shoulder.
"Well, actually my ribs are hurting pretty badly. Do you think you could give me a ride home?" He asked hoping she would say yes.
"Sure, why not?" She replied smiling. She told Elle, Trish, Ash, and Vic and they all took it the wrong way.
"YOU'RE GOIN BACK TO THE HOTEL WITH JEFF? WHY?" Elle yelled over the music.
"HIS RIBS HURT!" Aubrey yelled back and they both laughed.
"OKAY BYE, I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER!" She yelled back smiling.
"Later," Aubrey said hugging her friend.
"Bye," Elle replied before returning to Randy on the dance floor.
Back at the hotel...
Jeff and Aubrey walked into Jeff's room.
"Well then, do you need anything?" Aubrey asked curiously.
"Nup," He replied laying down on top of his bed.
"Okay, well I guess I'll be going then," She said slowly as she walked towards the door.
"Wait! Stay, please, I could use some company. We could watch a movie or something," He offered, sitting up fast.
"Ok fine," Aubrey said running to his side and pushed him back on the bed.
"Remind me to not sit up as fast next time," Jeff said pathetically as he grabbed his rib in pain.
Aubrey just laughed as she stroked his face gently. He looked up and smiled a little even though he was in pain. He reached his hand out towards her face and pulled her closer to him. Her lips landed on Jeff's lightly, but what started out to be an innocent kiss but it turned into a rather passionate one. (A/N: It's amazing how these things happen quite quickly!)
…
Elle and Randy were still dancing to the music, but they had gotten closer and closer every time. The next song played happened to be a slow, romantic one; making Elle and Randy dance even closer than before.
"I remember when we learnt how to dance in PE, I hated it. But I guess it all paid off," Elle whispered, making Randy laugh.
"I guess it did," He replied smiling.
Elle shut her eyes and rested her head on Randy's shoulder (A/N: Forget the fact of how he's so freaking tall) and just relaxed her body as she danced with him.
Eventually the song ended and Randy pulled Elle gently off the dance floor, back to her table, only this time he wasn't sitting opposite her and separated by a table, instead, he had placed Elle on his lap.
He leaned in close and whispered into her ear, "Remember at the hospital, in Jeff's room, I said that I was kind of interested in someone."
"How could I forget? Are you going to tell me who it is now?" She replied smiling; waiting to hear what he was going to say next and hoping it was exactly what she wanted it to hear.
"It's you," He replied smiling, as he leaned in and gave her a light peck on her lips. Elle couldn't help but smile, telling Randy that she felt the same way towards him. She was so happy. He was so happy. They were both so happy. He leaned in again to give her another kiss, but before he did, someone tapped him on the shoulder, making him turn around only to be met with a hard punch to his face, knocking him out cold.
"Randy!" Elle exclaimed as she saw Randy fall. (A/N: Not literally). Elle looked up to see who had just punched Randy, and her eyes widened when she met their face.
"Brian," She whispered softly.
Cliffhanger! Kind of …Well it is unless you've read the original before…
Still not as many reviews as I would have hoped for, but I suppose the number of reviews have doubled from one, to two… :D
Thanks peeps!
