Randy's P.O.V

The match was a success and Sydney looked as if entertaining came naturally, she handled it like a pro, we were backing up the ramp while she shouted things to the crowd as I kept my eyes locked on John's lifeless body,

As we reached backstage, Sydney let go of my arm and walked off, still pissed off with me. I sighed and began to walk towards my locker room, as I entered I heard Syd talk to herself,

"Fuck sake, my day couldn't get any worse!" she said,

"What's up?" I asked, hoping for a reply as I sat down on the chair, staring at her, she looked at me, before grabbing her bag and walking out of the room, "Fucking hell!"

I decided to go for a shower, before attempting to talk to Syd again.

FFW 15 MINUTES

I got out of the shower and changed quickly into a pair of jeans and an Ed Hardy top. I grabbed my duffel bag and dropped the towel by the bathroom door before leaving the locker room. I walked towards the entrance, hoping to run into Syd or someone to talk with. As I reached the entrance I saw most of the Superstars crowding in a circle, I couldn't see what they were crowding and decided to take a look...

Sydney's P.O.V

As I left Randy's locker room I went in search of Cena's, as I found it I knocked and opened the door,

"Hey" I said, entering, "Mind if I use your bathroom to change?"

"Yeah go ahead" Cena said, as him and Ashley were gathering there things and stuffing them into their,

"So why aren't you with Randy?" Ash asked, giving me a confused look,

"Long story" I said, walking into the bathroom and locking the door, I re-appeared 10 minutes later dressed in my clothes from before, "Thanks dude" I said, smiling at Cena, "I'll cya later"

"Later" they shouted as I walked out of the room.

I walked towards costume design and to give Julie the dress back, she put it in a protective bag and told me I could keep it along with the other things I wore to the ring, I said my thanks and walked towards the entrance, as I reached the entrance I saw Maryse, she looked over at me and laughed. I dropped my bag and dress on the nearest equipment box and took my shoes off before walking over to her,

"Look who showed up" she said, smirking, "hows your lip hunny... I heard someone attacked you" she winked at me, I felt my anger welling up inside me,

"Wow... news travels fast in the place" I said, giving her evils, "Quite funny actually; I found a note on my bag... signed the exact same way the texts were"

"Wow, someone has got it in for you" she replied, as I went nose to nose with her,

"Unfortunately for that whore, I got it in for her to!" I replied, as she raised her hand and slapped me, "Hmmm, funny, you whack like a pussy as well! Exactly what I expected" I finished, whacking her back, harder,

"Putain de merde!" she screamed, jumping on me and beginning to punch me, she landed a whack to my lip, splitting it again; I could taste the blood – I pushed her off of me and sat on top of her ramming her head into the floor as she screamed, causing people to form a circle,

"YOU WANNA THREATEN ME, WELL CAN I INTRODUCE YOU TO MY FRIEND KARMA?" I screamed in her face as I punched her,

"Je vais te tuer! Vous putain! Aller dos crawlé dans un fossé où vous appartiennent!" Maryse screamed, as I began to punch her harder making her nose bleed at a fast pace, she pushed me of off her and stood up, I got to my feet quickly and turned to face her, as I turned she kicked me in the ribs making me fall to the floor,

"AH my fucking ribs!" I screamed, holding my ribs in pain, Maryse kneeled down next to me and grabbed a handful of my hair,

"I see my boys did the job then!" she shouted in my face, she stood up and began stomping on my ribs as I screamed in pain,

"HOLY SHIT!" I heard Randy shout, "MARYSE GET THE FUCK AWAY!"

"Oh look, here comes lover boy to save the day" she shouted, putting her foot on my neck, "One more step and I'll step... I don't think you wanna see what I'm gunna do to her pretty little face, let me just put it this way, she won't be pretty when I'm done with her!"

"Maryse, don't you fucking dare!" Randy shouted,

"Randy just leave!" I screamed,

"NO!" Randy shouted back, "I'm staying!"

"Have it your way" Maryse said, ramming my head into the concrete floor, as it went black...

Randy's P.O.V

"YOU WANNA THREATEN ME, WELL CAN I INTRODUCE YOU TO MY FRIEND KARMA?" I heard Sydney scream as I got closer to the circle,

"Je vais te tuer! Vous putain! Aller dos crawlé dans un fossé où vous appartiennent!" Maryse screamed, as I began to push through the crowd. As I reached the front of the circle, where this full blown brawl was taking place I saw Sydney get to her feet and turn to face Maryse, earning a kick in the ribs making her fall to the floor in pain,

"AH my fucking ribs!" she screamed, holding her ribs as Maryse kneeled down next to her and grabbed a handful of Syd's hair,

"I see my boys did the job then!" Maryse shouted before she stood up and began stomping on Syd's ribs as she screamed in pain,

"HOLY SHIT!" I shouted, "MARYSE GET THE FUCK AWAY!"

"Oh look, here comes lover boy to save the day" she shouted, putting her foot on the crook of Syd's neck, "One more step and I'll step... I don't think you wanna see what I'm gunna do to her pretty little face, let me just put it this way, she won't be pretty when I'm done with her!"

"Maryse, don't you fucking dare!" I shouted, feeling my anger rise,

"Randy just leave!" Sydney screamed, as the blood from her lip dripped to floor,

"NO!" I shouted back, "I'm staying!"

"Have it your way" Maryse said, ramming Syd's head into the concrete floor, making Sydney lifeless,

"YOU WHORE!" I screamed, going to run at her as Cody and Ted grabbed my arms, "LET ME FUCKING GO! SHE DESERVES WHAT I'M GUNNA DO TO HER!" I looked on as Maryse began to run out of the building, "YOU BETTER FUCKING RUN! JUST WAIT, YOU'RE DEAD WHEN THE DIVAS FIND OUT!" I screamed, before falling to the floor in tears, "YOUR FUCKING DEAD!"

"Randy calm down" Ashley said, rubbing my back, "We need to be strong for Sydney"

"I can't..." I said, sobbing, "I told her I was gunna smack her coz she was getting on my nerves! This is my fault!"

"It's not your fault" Ashley said, as I looked on at EMT working on Syd, "we don't know why she did it, but I doubt it has anything to do with you!"

I watched as EMT lifted her onto a stretcher. I got to my feet quickly and walked over to where they were wheeling her to an ambulance, "And you are?"

"Her boyfriend" I replied, sniffing, "Ash, tell Dave what happened and that I've gone to the hospital with Syd, and can you take her bags for me?"

"Yeah sure" Ash replied, "Text me when you know what's what"

"Ok" I said, climbing in the back of the ambulance, "Later"

"Later" Ash replied, as they closed the doors, I held onto Syd's hand praying she'd be ok.

I sat and kissed her hand repeatedly all the way to the hospital, as they unloaded her from the ambulance I stood by the doors of the hospital and checked my phone, I had one missed call from Dave, I texted him back quickly while the ambulance workers began to push Sydney towards me,

At the hospital, Imma stay with Sydney tonight, will explain all in the morning. I won't answer after now because imma be at Syd's bedside.

RKO

The message sent and I quickly walked up to Sydney's lifeless body and held her hand. As we reached the where the doctors were, I was asked to wait in the waiting room. After what seemed like an eternity, a doctor walked up to me,

"You're here for Sydney I believe?" the doctor said as I stood up and shook his hand,

"Yes, I'm her boyfriend Randy Orton" I replied, sniffling,

"Well, Mr. Orton..." the doctor began, "She is stable, but her ribs are broken and she has a concussion"

"Will she be alright?" I asked, worrying about what the doctor had told me,

"She should be fine, but we're going to keep her in for a couple of days" the doctor replied, "You can go in and see her when you're ready, but I would like her to restrain from lots of movement, I'll be back to check up on her later"

"Ok, thank you" I said, as the doctor walked off,

I walked into Sydney's room to find her lying lifeless with tubes sticking into her, her head wrapped up and her eyes closed. I walked over to her and kissed her forehead softly before sitting in the seat next to her bed, she stirred and began to cough,

"Oow oww oww" she croaked, trying to catch her breath "fuck that hurts!"

"Hey..." I said, pushing the stray hairs of off her face,

"What do you want?" she asked, in a pissed off tone,

"Look Syd..." I said, rubbing my head, "I didn't mean what I said, I was pissed off"

"Still doesn't give you the right to say it!" she snapped back looking away from me, before coughing again, "Holy shit!"

"Syd, please, just hear me out..." I began, pulling her head towards me, "I'm sorry, please Syd!"

"There's nothing for me to say!" Syd said, trying to look away, but unable to as I held her head in place,

"Syd!" I began, "I'm sorry I was such a pig and hit on you like that! I'm sorry I said what I said to you! I never meant it!" I continued, "I love you and I would never hurt you like that!"

"I can't even remember what happened! Only what you said!" she said, smacking her forehead, "I can't even remember why I'm here!"

"You can't remember anything?" I asked, holding her hand,

"No" Syd began, getting worried, "Why am I here Randy? Why does it hurt to cough and breathe? What happened?"

"Oh god, Sydney..." I began, looking to the floor then back to her, "Maryse happened!"

"WHAT DID SHE DO?" Syd shouted, beginning to moan and cough,

"Syd! Calm down... you gotta rest and you can't keep shouting!" I began, standing up and rubbing her side lightly, making her calm down, "Maryse attacked you after the show, and you've broke your ribs... you gotta rest!"

"Ok, ok" she croaked, struggling to breathe, "So why can't I remember everything"

"You've got a concussion... it shouldn't last long but you gotta rest and work your way up to the physical stuff"

"Well fuck that Randy!" Syd said, "Imma wrestle when Vince tells me to, whether you lot like it or not"

"Ok, ok" I said, kissing her lips softly, "Now get some sleep, you've had a long day"

"Ok... love you" Syd said, turning over and yawning,

"Love you too" I replied, sitting down and dozing off myself,

FFW AN HOUR

I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing. I got up out of the seat and quickly left the room checking the caller ID before answering the phone,

"Hey Dave"

"Hey Orton... Hows my girl doing?"

"She's asleep at the moment, but she's got a couple of broken ribs and a concussion"

"FUCK ME SIDEWAYS!"

"Urhh... No thanks Dave, I'll pass"

"Imma kill Maryse when I get my hands on her!"

"Get in line... I'm up first!"

"So when's she getting discharged?"

"I dunno... they wanna keep her in a couple of days to check that she's progressing, I mean, she can't breathe without being in pain! She can't remember most things! Shit Dave! She looks a mess!" I said, walking towards the hospital entrance while rubbing my head in frustration, I leaned against the wall outside taking in a deep breath,

"She'll be fine! She has the Batista fight in her! Don't worry; she'll be back on her feet in no time"

"I hope so, coz at the moment I can't cope Dave! I feel it's my fault! I told her I'd hit her because I was pissed off! But you know what I'm like, I say something stupid then realise later! I gotta learn to shut my trap! Seriously!"

"Orton, Orton! You mean like now?" Dave said, beginning to laugh, "C'mon, she'll get over it, you just gotta explain that sometimes you don't mean what you say when you're angry"

"I guess your right Dave, anyway, I'll text you tomorrow about her condition and when she can get outta this place, later"

"Okay, Later dude"

I put the phone down and remember I needed to text Ashley. I quickly began to text her,

Hey Ash,

Syd's got a couple of broken ribs and a concussion. Doctors said the concussion should pass pretty quickly, but she's not allowed to do too much physical activity until it does... Syd's refusing saying she's gunna wrestle whether the doctors like it or not. She can't breathe at the moment without being in pain... Dunno when the hell she's gunna be out of here, but I'm staying with her...

Speak to you later,

RKO

I sent it and received a delivery report before walking back towards the room Sydney was in...
