Randy and I had been driving for a few hours on the open road.
"So…" I said shifting in my seat. "You're awfully quiet"
"I'm just listening to the music" he said. I looked at him suspiciously.
"Sure you are…I didn't know you liked the musical styling of Britney Spears" I teased. 'Hit me baby one more time' was playing quietly on the only radio station we could find that didn't have static or truck driver's conversations. I sighed and focused on the scenery that whizzed by. "What did you and Stacy talk about?" He gripped the steering wheel.
"You know, babe" I sighed again. Stacy had him hooked. I knew that now she always on his mind. I figured he was having second thoughts about them breaking up. It pissed me off. So, I changed the subject.
"Are you stayin at my place next week?" I asked. Smackdown was coming to Connecticut.
"Can I?"
"Of course, baby" I said. "I think it will be a good break for us away from hotels and people…just you and me" I placed my hand on his thigh.
And no Stacy.
"Sounds good" I nodded. We drove in silence for a few minutes until my cell phone rang. I looked at the number. It looked familiar.
"Hello?" I answered.
"Alexandria?" a voice asked.
"Auntie Pat?" I asked smiling.
"I'm so glad I finally found your number"
"Oh my god, how are you?"
"Well you know how it goes, Dria. When are you gonna come visit me?"
"Soon, Auntie, soon" I sung into the phone. I made a mental note to go down to Jersey on a vacation.
"Oh, guess who I saw at the market the other day?"
"Who?"
"Damon" I dropped the phone in shock.
My ex-boyfriend, Damon. I dated Damon senior year of high school and into college. Even though I was in Yale, I would drive or take the bus back every weekend just to be with him. Sure he was overprotective but he was the only man who loved me at the time. I thought he was 'the one' but he started messin around with the wrong people and hustling. I just couldn't be bothered anymore. Randy looked at me concerned. I picked up the phone.
"Alexandria?"
"I'm here, Auntie" I said trying to regain my composure.
"Yeah so I saw him. He asked for your number but I didn't know where I had it. If I see him again. I'll give it-"
"No Auntie…don't" I said. "I'm really busy I won't answer"
"Oh…okay. We all miss you, Dria"
"I miss you too. How's Keyshia?"
"Keyshia's…well you know, Keyshia. I'll get her"
"Okay I love you and miss you, Auntie" I waited a few seconds.
"Lexy!" Keyshia my 17-year old cousin squealed.
"Hey Key Key"
"What's up?"
"Nothin. You?"
"I'm good. I'm so happy I'm about to graduate"
"Yeah and if you get into U-Conn you can crash at my place"
"Oooh, and then you can hook me up wit one of those fine ass wrestlers you work with" she laughed. "That would be hot, Lexy."
"Maybe when you're legal" I said slowly.
"September 19TH!" she shouted.
"I know, I know," I said. "Don't forget mine June 17th!"
"I will remember to" she said sarcastically. "Awww, shit-"
"Key!" I shouted.
"What? You act like you never cursed when you were my age…Anyways, did Mommy tell you she saw-"
"Damon, I know" I said. Randy shot me a look.
"He looks good, girl. If you don't want him anymore I'll take him" she said.
"He is too old for you" I said. "I'll come the week after Valentine's Day, okay?"
"Okay. I miss you, Lexy. Love you."
"Love you, Key Key" I said hanging up. I smiled to myself. I missed my family. Being so busy, I rarely had the time to breathe. The WWE, Randy and Angel had become my family.
"You know that's the first time I ever heard you talk to your family" Randy said.
"I guess I'm too busy" I said looking at my nails. The truth was I didn't like to talk about my family the result was always the same. Me trying to forget about it.
"You never talk about your parents" he said. I lowered my head.
"Baby, let's not-" I sighed.
"Keeping it all inside won't make it better" he said. "You know you can talk to me about anything".
I blinked. Damn, that sounded familiar. I said the same exact thing to him and he was turning my own shit on me!
"Right but you don't talk to me about anything"
"Alex" he said clenching the steering wheel. "This is tough"
"And what I've been through isn't?"
"That's not what I said. I'm not going to argue with you Alexandria"
"I wish I really knew what you were saying about everything. Stacy. The Baby-"
"Let's just forget about it"
I laid my head against the seat, looked at him and said "Fine"
The Supershow was the next event and it was rare that all the RAW and SMACKDOWN superstars would be together. Christy and I came up the brilliant idea to throw a pool party downstairs and invite everyone.
Well everyone we liked.
"You're not wearing that, are you?" Randy asked as I stood in front of the mirror fixing my black halter top bikini.
"Why?" I asked turning to face him. "You dont like it?"
"I do and so will every other guy down there" he commented shrugging.
Aww...my baby was jealous.
"They can look baby but they cant touch" I said. Randy snorted. "Okay I'm done and what about you?"
"I'll be down later" he said un zipping his suitcase. "Once I find my swim trunks"
"Okay"
JOHN'S POV:
I noticed her the moment she came in with Christy. She smiled and hugged Melina and waved to some other people.
Then she and Christy walked over to a lounge chair and took off their robes. She looked amazing in her black bikini. I just wanted to take her upstairs and make her forget about him.
But him was my best friend.
Dont get me wrong Randy is one of my closest friends in the business but I cant help what I feel for his...his..
GIRLFRIEND. Who's crazy in love with him.
"Hey Alex, come give me a hug!" Johnny Nitro called from the pool.
"No, you come here!" She shouted back. I rolled my eyes. Somebody wanted a feel. He said okay and climbed out of the pool.
"Nooo you're gonna get me wet" she said stepping back as he walked towards her with his arms open.
"Too late!" he said picking her up in a big bear hug.
"Drop her in the pool, Nitro!" Melina shouted.
"NO!" She screamed as he jumped into the pool with her making a big splash. She surfaced from the water laughing, looking more beautiful than ever. "I hate you!" she pouted. She splashed water at him and then stepped out of the pool. Every guy in the room had their eyes on her hot wet body.
"Hey Alex" I called out from the hot tub where I was sitting. She waved and came over.
"Hi John" she smiled getting into the hottub. She sat down and sighed. "It feels so good in here"
"What's up?"
"Nothin much" she shrugged. "I just got attacked" I laughed. "I'm gonna get him back though or Randy will"
"Where is Orton?"
"Upstairs getting all pretty in the mirror"
"How's everything going?" I asked. She shrugged again.
"Well Stacy..." she began. "Is a bitch"
"Why would you say that?"
"Cuz she is. End of story." she said fixing her bikini top.
"Orton!" we heard a couple of the guys shout. She looked up.
"My Randykins is here" she smiled brightly. A few minutes later Randy came over with a towel in hand.
"What's up John?" he asked.
Trust me, you dont want to know.
"Nothin" I said. He nodded.
"Come on babe" he said. She got out of the water and he wrapped a towel around her. The happy couple took off to the other hot tub on the other side of the pool.
"Randy!" some people called out. He waved while placing a protective hand around Alex's waist.
"Bullshit" I muttered.
"John" a female voice said. It was Stacy.
"Hey Stacy" I said. She looked over to the happy couple who were chilling in the hot tub.
"How's it going?" she asked sternly.
I sighed. "It's hard"
"Well work harder!" she scolded. "They're supposed to be falling into our arms"
"It's gonna take a lot of time Stacy" I said.
"Well I'm gonna do my part, you just do yours. We're in this together" she said walking away.
END OF POV
Isnt this just a shame? Everyone wants what they cant have. But alliances have been made to bring the happy couple (that might end up un-happy) down. My computer is just actin the fool right now so I'm trying to get some chapters out. Please review!
