I have no idea why I can't stop writing chapters for this story...
Thanks to all who have reviewed. If it wasn't for you I might not update as often!

I own my OC Phoebe.

If you haven't already guessed, I detest Kelly Kelly...

It was time for the taping once again.
It was usually over soon enough, then Cody could return to the hotel room with Phoebe.
He loved her so much more now, that he couldn't believe that he had ever hated her.

Cody was once again watching the monitors as Phoebe went about her job of announcing the Superstars' ring arrivals. She looked stunning as usual, although he was biased because she was always stunning to him. A grey halter-neck top covered her top half, while sparkly denim jeans covered her legs, which were elongated further by a pair of grey suede heels. That silky chestnut hair was pinned up in a retro fashion and she wore a silver headband.

Cody was admiring his secret lover when somebody tapped him on the shoulder. He spun around to meet with the smirking face of Barbie. She was dressed in… well she wasn't even dressed, as all she had on was a pink bikini and a torn WWE Divas shirt. He had a feeling that she was going to keep bothering him until he agreed to a date.

"Barbie, I have a match to prepare for." He stated seriously.

"But instead you're drooling over Ted's girl." The blonde replied.

"She's not Ted's girl." Cody shrugged defensively.

"Mm, but if I was to call him and tell him that you two had been intimate…" Barbie raised her brows suggestively.

"You're bluffing." Cody shook his head.

"Oh, so it wasn't you and her in bed together yesterday in the hotel?" the blonde asked him.

Cody paled as he realised that she really did know something about him and the brunette ring announcer. How had she known? It couldn't have been that obvious without other people noticing. Somebody would have hinted at it, or cracked some kind of joke if they had known about him and Phoebe. Ted was blissfully unaware of what had happened at his house.

"I could spill the beans to Teddy any time." Barbie flashed her cell phone in front of him.

"You wouldn't." the young Legacy member hissed.

"He'd probably be hugely pissed, yes?" the blonde smirked.

"You're nothing but a trouble maker." Cody whispered to prevent anybody hearing the conversation.

"And you're not? Isn't sleeping with your best friend's crush making trouble?" Barbie asked him.

"Look, I don't know what you think you know…" the young Legacy member was cut off.

"I know more than you'd like me to know." She whispered.

Cody frowned and kicked himself for not being more careful. He should have known that Barbie was up to no good. Now she could destroy things for everyone, which was not what he wanted at all. Now he was going to be responsible for hurting both Ted and Phoebe.

"Of course, if you were to do something for me…" the blonde smirked wickedly.

"I'm listening." Cody nodded. He was desperate to find a way out of this mess.

"You see, I've been wanting to get you alone for so long now." The blonde ran a hand down his chest.

The young man realised what she was hinting at and immediately tensed up.
He was not going to cheat on Phoebe and add insult to Ted. He had done the wrong thing, but that didn't mean that he didn't care about his friend and tag team partner.

"I'm not sleeping with you Barbie." Cody shook his head and backed away.

"That's just too bad." She shrugged and began to dial the number on her cell phone.

"What are you doing?" the young man asked her.

"Calling Ted. What do you think I'm doing?" she shrugged.

"No! Don't call him. Can't we work out something else?" the young Legacy member asked the blonde.

Barbie slowly and deliberately folded her arms and pursed her lips as she considered her options. Her cell phone was still in her hand as she furrowed her brow in deep thought. After a couple of minutes she turned to face Cody again and smirked. He sighed silently as he dreaded whatever the blonde had in store.

"Maybe there is another way." She spoke slowly.

"What is it?" Cody asked her.

"Come to my hotel room later. I'll tell you then. It's room 223." She nodded and walked off.

The blonde smirked as she walked down the corridors. She had no "other way" unless you counted what she was going to do to the young Legacy member once he was in her room tonight. All she needed was a little assistance and Cody would be all hers before the night was out.

"I need to tell you something." Cody told Phoebe when they met up after the tapings.

"What?" the brunette asked him.

"Barbie knows about us. She was going to tell Ted." Cody replied.

"Did you stop her?" Phoebe asked with a concerned expression on her face.

"Only just. She told me to meet her tonight to sort things out." He replied.

"Are you going to go and see her?" Phoebe asked him.

"I think I'm gonna have to." Cody shrugged.

The brunette nodded. They went back to the hotel and cuddled up on the bed before Cody had to go to meet up with Barbie. The young man was stricken by conflicting emotions. He felt deep guilt and disappointment with himself for doing something that would hurt his friend. On the other hand he felt a warm contentment and sparks of passionate desire whenever he was around Phoebe now. Holding her in his arms, he found it hard to imagine something that felt so right being wrong in every other way.

"The odds are against us." He whispered as he hugged the brunette close to his chest.

"Am I worth the gamble?" she asked him, pulling away to make eye contact.

"Yes." He nodded and kissed her softly.
