Chapter Two
The sound of Kayla`s red stiletto heels clicked through the halls of the Phillips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia for the smackdown show that night. She had arrived in Georgia at 2am that morning and got herself to sleep by 4am knowing she had a busy schedule that night, she couldn't take her mind off Randy, as much as she tried his face was always swarming around in her brain and she was always thinking about their next encounter and to be honest she was hoping for it, even if it meant ending in a painful goodbye.
Kayla straitened out her tulip cut pencil skirt that hit right above her knees and proceeded to straiten out her white chiffon, ruffled blouse, she smiled at her appearance tonight she felt good and looked good at that, it was time she took a compliment from herself. Reaching over she knocked on the door and waiting for the voice to answer before turning the knob to open it.
"Come in!" called an all to familiar voice.
She slowly opened the door and looked up to see Vince McMahon smiling in her direction from that seat at his desk "Well if it isn't my most talented writer!" he began and walked over to her taking her hand in his "How are you Ms. Brooks?"
Kayla smiled at his attitude towards her, she had always been graced with his great attitude and he seemed to take a liking to her very quickly, there was not one bad thing he could say about Kayla, she was a great girl and an even better writer.
"I`m doing great Mr. McMahon, ready to get to work on the new script!" she smiled as he walked her over to his desk and they both took a seat, one across from the other.
Vince laughed and shook his head "When are you not ready to get to work darling?"
She turned her smile into a smirk and got out her note pad "What are we thinking for next weeks script?"
Vince matched her smirk and folded his hands in front of him "I want to see a play on John Cena and Nikki`s love story…" he paused as he thought "And I want to see something more exciting for Orton, I want something different."
She nodded her head taking all this into consideration, at the mention of Randy's name her throat became dry and her anticipation levels sky rocketed but she made sure not to let Vince become aware of this, that was the last thing she needed the boss finding out about her feelings for Randy, 'not that they couldn't be more obvious', she thought.
Meanwhile, as Kayla was finishing up her meeting with Vince on the new script for next week, Randy was taping up her wrists and getting ready for his next match with Brock Lesnar, him and Lesnar had been in a feud for the past few weeks and they were planning to use it as a big match in the next pay-per view show. As he finished taping his wrists, he heard his locker room door open and soon saw his best friend come though.
He smiled and nodded over to the man who was now next to him "Hey Cena, what's up?"
John sighed and sat down next to Randy "Oh nothing really, but I did run into Kayla in the hallway just two minutes ago."
With the mention of her name, Randy`s head shot up, he would get just as excited and anticipated hearing her name as she did his, but god forbid he let it show, he simply shrugged his shoulders "Oh yeah?" he paused and cleared his throat "How is she?"
John smirked at his best friend knowing all too well he was trying to hide the fact he really wanted to see Kayla "She looks good, ill tell you that much."
Randy licked his lips and he could imagine what Cena was referring to, that girl could dress to make a mans heart stop beating, she looked beautiful in almost anything and the thought of that drove Randy crazy. "Well…" Randy paused and smirked getting up from his seat "It might be the man she's spending her nights with, he may be treating her really good."
John snickered with a laugh "You are a cocky mother fucker." This statement alone made Randy laugh, although John was truly worried about Kayla, Randy had no idea how Kayla felt about him and it wasn't John`s place to say anything, the only one who could show her true feelings to Randy was Kayla and god knows Kayla was not going to let that happen, not as long as Randy only sees her as a late night lover.
"But in all honestly man…" John began to grab his best friends attention "When are you going to cut this bullshit with her?"
Randy sighed frustrated and shook his head "Not you too! Man, Just see it for what it is, friends with benefits."
"Not me too?" John raised a brow "Did Kayla bring this up to you again?"
"It doesn't matter because this relationship bullshit is never going to happen, Kayla knew what she got into when she started shit with me." Randy was determined to fight his case at this point.
John shook his head and sighed at how much a blind asshole his best friend could be at times "How the fuck do you not see what you have in your arms every night she is with you?" he questioned "That girl is amazing and she genuinely cares for you! Randy do you not care what Kayla goes through?"
Randy had it! He was sick and tired of this shit coming not only from John but he would get it from Nikki too, being as Nikki was Kayla's best friend. "Listen if Kayla is not happy with this situation then she can leave, nobody is stopping her, she is not bonded to me or tied down!" he exclaimed, walked over to the locker room door and walking out slamming it behind him.
John sighed and leaned back on the chair in the locker room "But she wont." He whispered knowing Kayla all too well by now.
While Randy was getting ready for his match standing in the gorilla position, Kayla was walking down the halls of the Phillips arena looking for the Divas locker room to have a chat with her best friend Nikki, she needed to talk right now, after bumping into John on the way out of Vince`s office, her and john talked about Randy and it frustrated her because she knew there could be nothing more between the two of them, but were her friends trying to tell her something? Were they trying to tell her to leave and let him go once and for all? But could she really do that? In her heart the answer was no but her brain was telling her 'how easy would it be if I could change that to a yes.'
"You look more beautiful every time I see you sweetheart." A deep voice Kayla knew all too well came from her right side.
Kayla smirked and stopped in her tracks, turning to her right side and looking up into deep chocolate brown eyes "Oh you know just what to say to a girl Dwayne."
He gave a soft laugh and shot her his million-dollar smile, that made all girls weak in the knees "Just the ones I really like."
She shook her head, her smirk still playing on her lips, crossing her arms over her chest "What are you doing here Dwayne?"
"I need to have a reason?" he smirked challenging her.
She licked her lips in amusement "Not particularly, however if you are here for me, you know stalking is illegal right?"
This earned a laugh from Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson "Oh sweetheart you could never turn me in."
She smiled with a hint of amusement and began walking with him by her side , nudging him playfully in the ribs after his last comment "So how`ve you been?"
He nodded and wrapped his arm around her waist "Cant complain, miss being here though."
She looked up at him and she knew in her heart he wanted to be more on the show "Do you know if your scheduled to do a return anytime soon?"
He looked down into her gorgeous green eyes, getting lost for a split second, and he softly cleared his throat "You would be able to better tell me."
She laughed softly and nodded her head "I guess I would and I may talk to Vince about something like that."
Little did the two friends know that the viper was around the corner listening to them, no intentionally but he did hear almost every word and he noticed how close Dwayne got to Kayla, this made him furious and it shouldn't have, Kayla is pleased to do what she wants, they aren't in an exclusive relationship but this bothered Randy to no end, he hated seeing her with another man, especially so close, and flirting, dare he say he was jealous?
