Chapter 14
A few hours later, Whitney woke up and jumped a little because Chris'
face was mere inches away from hers.
"Jumpy, are we?" asked Chris.
"No. But it's not everyday you wake up in a hospital with your
brother's face so close to yours." replied Whitney.
"Well, it's not everyday your kid sister has knee surgery either.
Besides that, I was just seeing if you were still breathing you been out for a while." responded Chris.
"It's called a morphine shot for the pain. It knocks ya out, so sorry
for sleeping. By the way, I'm going back to sleep." said Whitney pulling the covers over her head.
"No, you've slept enough. Don't make me tackle you so you stay awake."
replied Chris.
"Stay away from me. I wanna sleep." commented Whitney.
"You'll sleep enough when you're dead. Now get up." said Chris.
Whitney groaned and took the covers off of her head and looked around
the room and saw Amy, Dawn, Jackie, Jericho, Adam, Dave, Grace and Jay were all in there. Dave walked over and placed a kiss on her forehead and smiled at her.
"Hey, sweetheart." said Dave.
"Hi hunny." replied Whitney.
"How do you feel?" asked Amy taking a hold of Whitney's right hand.
"Tired, sore and very thirsty." answered Whitney.
Amy reached over and grabbed a glass of water and helped Whitney take a drink.
Just then Nidia Guenard walked in with a big smile on her face. Whitney
couldn't quite figure out what had her friend in such a good mood, but
besides that fact, Whitney was happy to see Nidia.
"Hi, sweetie. How are you feeling?" said Nidia.
"Hey Nidia, I guess I feel alright. What has you in such a good mood?"
replied Whitney.
"I just got asked out by a hot guy." responded Nidia.
"Really? Who?" asked Grace.
"Well I can't remember his name but I can tell y'all what he looks
like. He's about 6'4 and has the most beautiful blue eyes and has brown hair and has like five tattoos. I peg his age to be about 24-25 and he said he's from Missouri. He did say that he did have a girlfriend that worked for the company but he doesn't think that I would know her." answered Nidia.
Whitney knew immediately that Nidia had just described Randy to a t.
She wanted her friend to be happy and didn't want her to get hurt.
"You can't go out with him." stated Dawn.
"She's right. You can't go out with that guy." commented Jackie.
"Why can't I?" asked Nidia.
"Well first of all the guy you just described name is Randy Orton and
second of all, you do know his ex-girlfriend." answered Amy.
"Ok who is his ex?" asked Nidia looking around the room.
"Me." replied Whitney.
"You're joking right?" asked Nidia with a laugh.
"No, I'm not joking and I don't see what's funny." responded Whitney a
little harsher than intended.
"Randy's not your type. I mean you were always into the bad boy type. I
always thought you and Dave were together, seeing how you two flirted
back and fourth all the time. What attracted you to Randy?" said Nidia.
"I don't know. But you honestly thought Dave and I were together, now
that I find funny." replied Whitney.
"Why do you find that funny?" asked Dave.
"Dave, don't pay attention to her, she's probably still higher than a
kite because of the morphine." said Dawn.
"Yeah, she probably doesn't know what the hell she's talking about."
added Jackie.
"I do too know what the hell I'm talking about, at least I think I do."
retorted Whitney.
"Now that I think about it, you guys are right. I can't go out with
Randy. I don't want to break the rule." said Nidia.
"What rule?" asked Adam.
"You don't know the rule?" asked Jay.
"You don't even know what the hell we're talking about, so shut the
hell up." said Grace.
"The rule is never date your friend's ex. It's an unwritten, unspoken
rule in the world of women." said Jackie.
"Do y'all come with an instruction manual?" asked Jericho.
"Men. You can't live with them and you just can't shoot 'em." commented
Jackie.
"Women, find them and forget them." said Jay.
"Hey." chorused all the women in the room.
"How should I tell Randy that I can't go out with him?" asked Nidia.
"Just bring him in here and tell him that you can't go. He hates to be
rejected in front of people. And I have a few choice words to say to
him." suggested Whitney.
"OK, I'll be right back." replied Nidia.
A few minutes later Nidia walked back in with Randy. All the men in the
room stood up and each had a stare down with him.
"Hey Grace, I believe you have something to say to Randy." stated
Whitney.
Grace looked at Randy, then up at Jay who was standing right by the
chair she was sitting in. She gave Jay a look asking to help her up and in doing so, Jay got the hint and helped her stand up. She walked over and stood in front of Randy and eyed him very intently.
Randy looked at her. "So what have you got to say to me that you
haven't already said to me before, Grace?" he asked.
Again, Grace eyed him intently. "Randy, I wanted you to know that I was
two-and-a-half months pregnant. When you and Dave ended up fighting in
his and Whit's locker room, Whitney somehow got in the middle and got
pushed into me. When that happened, she fell on top of me and that led to me loosing my baby."
"What the hell is the point in you telling me this Grace?" replied
Randy.
The anger built inside Grace by the minute as she stood there in front
of Randy, still eyeing him. "The point of me telling that Randy, is I'm
telling you it's YOUR fault that I lost my little girl."
"Good. The last thing this world needs is another of you and Jay
running around, so I guess I did society a favor." said Randy.
That comment was enough to make Grace start shaking violently. Jay saw
her shaking and stepped in front of her, getting in Randy's face. "What the hell is your problem, Orton? Why would you say something like that? You are one sick and twisted son of a bitch, but you know…I can't say I'm surprised at that because after all, you were and hell, maybe even still are, one of Hunter's little bitches."
Randy looked at Dave, then back at Jay. "Well, if you wanna go there Reso, than you shouldn't just be talking about me because I'm not the only one in this room that used to be in Evolution."
"What the hell does that mean, Randy?" replied Dave.
"What I mean Dave is, if I'm supposedly still one of Hunter's little
bitches then you are still one too." replied Randy.
"No Randy that's where you are wrong. Unlike you I permanently detached
my lips from Hunter's ass." responded Dave.
"That's right, Now your lips are permanently attached your skank's
ass." said Randy.
"Damn skippy they are. And that's where they're gonna stay." replied
Dave.
Whitney looked at Dave and smiled. "Good answer, baby. You're
learning."
