A/N: Here's chapter three. This is the first one written on my new computer (: YAY. So now, updates will not be so far and in between.

I like how people favorite and alert this story, but please show me some love with your reviews. I lose momentum if I don't get any reviews. Gabby – I live for your reviews, sweetheart.
A Chance to Love
The following morning, a ringing that Jocelyn was not used to awoke the blonde from a peaceful slumber. It was the first time in the recent past that she actually got a full night's rest, though she could tell that last night was going to catch up with her very shortly.
Opening her eyes, Jocelyn checked her cell phone, but saw the screen black, and searched her nightstand for the cause of the noise. When she glanced to the right side of her bed, she saw Randy sound asleep. Fuck.
She slightly shook the wrestler's shoulder to wake him up, to which he finally did a few moments later. He tossed a glance at the blonde who just pointed to his pocket where she guessed the incessant ringing was originating from. The brunette pulled his cell phone from his pocket and flipped it open to answer. "What's up JC?"
"You didn't leave the house, did you?"
Randy rubbed the sleep from his eyes and gazed around the bedroom he was in. "I guess not. Did you?"
"Yeah, I'm back in the New. I'm comin' back up later tonight to see Lindsay. I'll grab you then, man. Just wanted to make sure you were still in one piece."
"Catch you later, bro." Jocelyn stood from the bed and started towards the door. "What's up, J.J?"
When she placed her pointer finger to her lips, he caught on and closed his mouth. J.J. glanced out into the hallway to make sure no one was still lurking in the hallway -- specifically Maddie. She closed the door behind her and started back to the bed. "I take it that was John on the phone?" Randy nodded in reply. "He left without you last night?"
"Seems that way. He said he's comin' back up later tonight, though."
Jocelyn pulled her long locks into a messy ponytail at the base of her head and racked her brain. "Well, that'll clearly be a while." She grabbed her cell phone before taking a seat back on the bed next to Randy. After checking the time and noticing that the two slept until 1:30, she placed her Razor back on the side table. "I have no problem with you chillin' out here until then. As long as Maddie doesn't find out 'cause she'd have my ass on a silver platter."
"Let's go out for a little bit. Grab some food or something." Jocelyn shrugged and stood back up.
Just the thought of having Randy in her room was mind boggling. Here he was, some big celebrity, and he sat on her bed in her bedroom at her sorority house. What were the odds?
Figuring she would probably look like hell either way, she pulled out a pair of dark navy skinny jeans and a navy blue female's Red Sox shirt sporting "Bay 44" on the front with the Red Sox logo from her closet. She shrugged off the idea of Randy being in the room and slid out of the dress she was still wearing from the night before. After quickly getting dressed, the blonde reached into the bottom of the closet and pulled out a pair of black Old Navy flip flops.
With her bag in hand, she turned back to Randy, who was watching her every move closely. "Ready?"
The 6'4 man stood from the bed, checked to make sure his wallet was still in his back pocket, slipped his cell phone into his front pocket and nodded. "Yeah." J.J. took a second to peek out of her room, and again didn't see anyone in the hallway. She waved to Randy to follow her down the hall and once she reached the stairs she checked again.
"We're going to haul ass down the stairs and outside. You know which one is my car, so I'm going to check the kitchen and I'll meet you at my car." Randy nodded and followed Jocelyn downstairs, but the two separated once they reached the bottom. J.J. waved to some of the girls in the living room picking up from the night before and reorganizing things. "Hey girlies." Lindsay greeted Jocelyn with a hug when she entered the kitchen. "We have to talk," J.J. added with a smirk. "I'm goin' out for a little bit. I'll do a booze run again. Need anything else?"
Lindsay reached into her back pocket and pulled out some cash before handing it to Jocelyn. "I just need a really cute top for tonight. If it fits you, it'll fit me." J.J. nodded and slid the money into her pocket.
"Know those super cute boots that you bought last week?" The blonde nodded again. "Can I steal 'em for tonight?" Casey asked with a hopeful smile on her face.
"Yeah, I guess so," J.J. replied with a smirk. "Sure. They're still in the box at the bottom of my closet." She tucked her bangs back and stuck her thumbs through the loopholes of her jeans. "I'll see you bitches later."
She waved them off and headed over to the jar that they kept for parties, more importantly the liquor. After taking about half of what was left, figuring it would be necessary to keep it around until tomorrow the end of the weekend, she started out to meet Randy in the driveway. "Jocelyn."
With a smile, Jocelyn turned around to be face to face with Maddie, a 5'5 redhead. "What's up, Maddie?"
"What was that ringing in your bedroom this morning?"
Damn it. "Well, I've been trying to find a new ring tone for my phone, and Randy, last night, was telling me about this really great band. Figured I'd see what they had for tones." She checked above Maddie's head at the time and shrugged. "Got to go. Places to go, people to piss off." With a smirk, Jocelyn turned on her heel and continued to Randy.
"You know there are supposed to be no guys in the house after a party, right?"
Jocelyn stopped and did a half turn. "Yeah. I know the rules."
"Then why is a guy waiting in the driveway at your car?"
"He's not in the house, Mad. Get off my ass." With that, she finally left the house and saw Randy leaning against her Mazda Tribute, a smirk on his face. "Sorry that took me forever," she offered as she reached him at the vehicle. The blonde slid her fingers through the loops of his jeans and gave him a sweet smile.
"It's fine," he replied as he placed a quick kiss to her lips. "Ready?"
"Yep." She pulled her keys from her purse and unlocked the car before sliding into the driver's seat. "I won't lie. I can be a crazy driver at times. Somethin' I got from growing up in Boston."
"I'm used to it with John. He has the worst road rage."
"I can probably match him." Jocelyn turned to Randy and stuck her tongue out at him as her eyes twinkled with a smile.
"Don't stick it off unless you plan on using it." J.J.'s reply was to bite down on her lower lip.

The twosome sat at a table in the middle of the food court at the local mall eating lunch. "What's your family like?"
Jocelyn shrugged. "My dad is a doctor at Mass General. My mom works in real estate." She took a sip of her Sierra Mist before continuing. "Mom pretty much made her own schedule when Jamie and I were young. Once we got old enough to go over friend's houses, she pretty much lived at work. Now that she only has Jenna in the house, it's a little easier for her to get out and work more. Dad on the other hand, I feel like he's always at work, or at least on call.
"So growing up for the most part was only Jamie and I. Jenna was too young to really be all that close to us." Jocelyn just shrugged. "And before you ask, no it's not Jamie James. That would be kind of weird. My dad is actually a huge wrestling fan. Loved Jeff Jarrett, and talked my mother into naming their first son Jarrett."
"And how did they stumble upon Jocelyn?"
The blonde shrugged a shoulder and pursed her lips. "All I know is that my parents wanted to stick with J's and something English. The three of us all have English first names. In English, it means 'playful' and means 'light hearted' in Hebrew."
"I like it, though. It's different."
She smiled in Randy's direction as a thank you. "Jenna got the boring name. She was named after Mom's sister, who passed away a year before Jen was born." The two continued to eat lunch, as Jocelyn looked up at Randy. "So what about you? What's the Orton family like?"
Randy laughed and shook his head. "Mom's a nurse, Dad used to work for the WWE. Back when it was the WWF. I've got a younger sister, Rebekah, and a younger brother, Nathan. Nothin' too out of the ordinary back in St. Louis, well as far as they're concerned. I have them and then my secondary family in the WWE."
"How long have you known John?"
"Seems like forever, now. Since our days in OVW. Somewhere around eight or nine years." Jocelyn offered a sweet smile and tucked her bangs back behind her ear. "What about you and the girls?"
J.J.'s smile grew at the thought of her best friends. "I grew up with both of them. Cooli lived next door to us, and actually dated my brother for a short amount of time. And Casey, damn, since diapers. Casey's mom and my mom worked together, and we were only born forty-six days apart. Lindsay joined our 'group' when we were 4."
"And you all decided to go to school together?"
"Pretty much, yeah. I loved it up here when I visited on weekends. Casey's boyfriend slash almost fiancée went here. He graduated last year, but still comes around for parties every once in a while. And Cooli didn't want to leave her friends and wanted to get away from family."
"All done?" Jocelyn nodded as Randy grabbed both of their trays to throw away the trash. It wasn't everyday that someone could get him to eat in a food court. After all, his body was his business. But with Jocelyn, he was willing to do anything to be with her. He reached the table and offered her a hand to get up, and held her small hand inside of his larger one as they walked the mall.

"What do you think of this one?" Jocelyn stepped out of the dressing room in her jeans and a black, low cut spaghetti strap top, which held her breasts in only by a silver hoop connecting the two sides of the top.
Randy just shook his head. "Don't like it." Jocelyn just stuck her tongue out at Randy before heading back into the dressing room. A moment later, she steps out in a hot pink halter top with the top being only black lace. "Get that for Lindsay."
Jocelyn nodded her head and headed back into the changing room. "This is the last one."
When J.J. stepped out of the room this time, Randy's face sprouted into a perfect smirk. "I'm likin' this." Jocelyn matched his smirk with a smile and turned around to show off the back -- or what there really wasn't for a back. She wore a tight white draped tube top dress with a knotted bust. "That's the outfit."
Jocelyn nodded and went back in to change so they could leave -- after she picked out shoes to match.
