A/N: hello :) so who watched the Royal Rumble? and who was pissed when they saw who won? *raises hand* I WAS! i did love that move John Morrison did though to get back in the ring. that was sweettt. ohh and it was pretty cool seeing Booker T and Kevin Nash as well :) anyway here's Chapter 2. it might seem kind of confusing at parts but it'll make sense in later chapters.

After dancing Taby and Ted went back to the table. Taby then went over to the bar and ordered herself a Sprite. As she began to walk away someone tapped her on the shoulder and she turned to see who it was.

"Oh Hi John." She smiled sweetly

"You're an amazing dancer." He said. He sounded a bit flirtatious but Taby ignored it. It was probably just the alcohol in his system talking, she thought.

"Thanks."

"So how long are you staying with Randy?"

"I don't know. Why?"

"Oh, just wondering."

After an awkward moment of silence Taby said something "Ok well I'm gonna go back to the table."

"Wait! Before you leave, Can I tell you something?"

"Sure."

"I think you're beautiful."

She blushed. "Thank you." She smiled timidly. "But for the record people say nice things all the time when they're drunk."

"You think I'm drunk?"

"I do."

"Well I'm not."

"Whatever John. But thanks for the compliment." She then began to walk back over to the table but he grabbed her by the hand and stopped her.

"Wait, don't go."

She sighed. "What is it John?"

"I like you."

"That's not possible. We met today. You don't even know me."

"But I wanna get to know you. So what do you say? Will you go out with me?"

She looked at him for a while before she replied. "I'm sorry John. I don't think that's a good idea."

Suddenly Randy approached them. "Hey what's going on?"

"Noth.." Before Taby could finish, John cut her off

"I just asked Taby out."

Randy looked surprised. "Really? And what happened?"

"She said no." John said.

"Good. John I don't think it's a good idea if you and Taby went out?"

"Why not?" John questioned

"I just don't ok."

Taby soon chimed in. "Can we stop this discussion please?" She looked at John. "John, you seem like a really nice guy ok, but trust me if we dated it would end badly.

"How?"

"Just trust me ok?" She then turned to Randy. "I'm kind of tired now. Can you drop me off at the hotel?"

"Yeah, yeah; sure let's go."

"Bye John." Taby said as she made her way to the exit.

"Later man." Randy said to John.

The car ride to the hotel was silent as well as the walk to Taby's room. But as soon as she and Randy entired her room Randy spoke. "Sorry."

"For what?"

"John and that whole situation."

"You don't have to apologize. It's not your fault."

"It sucks doesn't it? Going through this?" He asked.

"More than you can imagine."

"It sucks for other people too, you know?"

"What do you mean?"

"I wasn't exactly jumping for joy when you told me."

"Oh right. I'm sorry. I wish I could change it."

"I wish you didn't have to go through this." Randy cupped her face in his hands.

Tears started to form. "I'm scared."

"Are you going to tell anyone else about..."

She interrupted him quickly "No! The less people know, the better."

The next day Taby woke up to the sound of knocking on her door. She looked at her blackberry and read the time 7:45 am.

"Who the hell is at my door this early?" She cursed as she went to go open it.

"Morning."

"John? What are you doing here?"

"I came to apologize for last night"

"You really don't have to. You didn't do anything wrong."

"No, no. I get it now. I get why you turned me down."

"John I don't think you..."

"You and Randy are a couple" He said.

"What? What would make you think that?" She questioned curiously

"It's obvious. I see the way he looks at you and I know you two..."

"John shut up. Ok? Just shut up. Randy and I aren't a couple."

"You're not?"

"No."

"Oh, I just thought since you said no to me..."

"John me turning you down is for your own good. It has nothing to do with Randy."

"Yeah, I uh, still don't get that part."

"I..I can't explain it."

"Look, all I'm asking for is one date. Just one date. I promise I'll leave you alone after that."

She looked at him. Truth was she wanted to yes, she just didn't want him to get hurt and she knew that's where this was headed.

"Please?"

She sighed in defeat. "One date. That's it."

He smiled excitedly. "I promise you won't regret this. So I'll pick you up tomorrow at 7?"

"Yeah, sure."

He smirked. "Cool, I'll see you later then."

Later that day Randy was at the hotel's gym getting a workout in. He had just got off the treadmill when John arrived. He noticed John's grin and knew something was up.

"What's going on?" Randy asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Dude you're grinning from ear to ear. Either you just got laid, or you will later."

"Taby said yes to a date."

Randy spit out the water he drank. "What?"

"Don't act all surpised. You know no woman could ever turn this down." John smirked

"So she said yes. She actually said yes?"

"Mhmm."

"Good for you man."

"You ok? You're not in love with Taby or something are you?"

"No, no. Have fun man. But if you hurt her, I'll..."

"I know, I know. Don't worry I'll be a perfect gentleman."

Taby was cuddled up in bed, reading a book when a knock approached her door. She got up to answer it.

"Hey Randy." She smiled. "What's up?"

"Can we talk?"

"Yeah sure, come in."

After he entered, she closed the door and then turned to him. "What's on your mind?"

"Why did you say yes to John?"

"Randy I..."

"You know this isn't a good idea."

"I know. I just..."

"Oh my God."

"What?"

"You like John."

"What? No I don..."

"You like him. You want to go out with him, don't you?"

"Well..."

"Don't you?" He half yelled.

"Yes! Ok! I kinda like him."

"Oh no Taby."

"I know this is bad ok? But it's just one date and that's it."

"You sure about that?"

"Yes! Ok?"

"By the way did you tell John we used to date"

"No did you?"

"No he just said something today"

"What did he say?"

"It was nothing."

"No tell me."

"He asked if I was in love with you."

"Oh. What did...what did you uh...what did you say?"

Randy stared at her. "You already know my answer to this question
