Thanks for the reviews. Please keep them coming. I just wanted to say, that I messed up and it's Chapter 7 that will be revised with the addition of new people not chapter 6. Anyhoo, enjoy, please R & R.
Chapter 6
Lita was sat on her kitchen counter top, a cup of coffee in one hand, and a couple of white grapes in the other. John was stood next to her, intercepting a grape on its way to her month every so often.
"Get your own." Lita squatted his hand away as he tried to grab another grape.
"But the fridge is all the way over there and I'm all the way over here," John whined.
"Baby! And don't think about touching my coffee because you do not want to be the person who takes away my coffee this morning, okay?"
"Yes, ma'am," he replied, stealing another grape and popping it into his mouth.
"John!"
"What? You told me not to steal your coffee."
"I already told you to get your own," the redhead complained.
"You can have this one back if ya like?" He opened his mouth, showing her the chewed up remains of the grape.
"Oh that's gross, close your mouth."
John laughed but complied with her request. After hearing a grunt behind him, he turned around, "Good morning."
"Is it?" Randy muttered. "Is there any coffee?"
"And just why do you deserve coffee?"
"Li?" Randy asked, a little taken aback by her tone.
"Don't Li me, Randy. You can't expect me to happy after what happened last night."
Randy still couldn't remember a thing that had happened last night. "What did I do?"
John shot Lita a confused looked but she winked at him, "You, Mister Orton decided that a red and green gnome was a better friend to you than we were."
Randy grimaced, "Look, Li … Lita I'm sorry if I said anything to hurt your feelings last night. I was pretty wasted."
"No shit, Sherlock." Lita replied with a grin. She glanced at John and as if he read her mind, they both said, "Why Billy why?"
"You guys suck, do you know that?"
His friends only laughed at him as he entered the kitchen further, walking up to the other side of Lita. He poured himself a cup of coffee from the pot and leaned back against the counter.
"Where's Adam?" Lita asked.
"He's in the shower," Randy replied. "Little fucker."
John raised an eyebrow, "What he'd do?"
"I woke up, having absolutely no idea where I was and I'm greeted by him saying 'Hello Lover!'"
"He's such a dork," Lita pointed out.
"Dork isn't what I was thinking but he's certainly something."
"Well you better get used to the teasing, babe, you're not living down last night anytime soon."
"I'm never drinking again."
"Yeah, right. You say that every time, man," Cena reminded him.
"This time I mean it."
"Believe it when I see it." He turned towards Lita, "I'm going to take a shower, care to join me?"
Lita pretended to think about it, "Thanks, but I'll pass."
"You know where I am if you change your mind." He winked at her before leaving the room.
"Grape?" Lita offered, pulling out a small bag from behind her and removing a small bunch of grapes.
"Don't mind if I do." Randy accepted the grapes from the redhead.
"You really don't remember anything about last night?" she asked.
"Not a thing," he admitted.
She patted him on the shoulder, "Maybe it's for the best." A tiny smile formed on her face.
Randy rolled his eyes, "That's right, Leets, find enjoyment from my pain."
"If you'd done as you promised me last time, you wouldn't be in this mess," the redhead pointed out.
"What?"
"Last time you were wasted like that you promised me you would come to me instead of turning to the bottle. What happened to that eh?"
Randy ducked his head, "I was going to call you Li, honest but you had Cena and Edge here. You didn't need my shit as well."
"What's that I'm picking up on my radar? Oh yeah, it's bullshit."
"What?"
"Randy, I don't care if I was entertaining a hundred people. I've always got time for you. When are you going to get that through that thick skull of yours?"
"But …"
"No buts. Now tell me what happened when you got home. How did Jessie react?"
"She's gone to her mom's." he replied.
"Oh, Randy, I'm sorry. Did you guys have a fight?"
"Nope, well kinda but the trip was planned. I just forgot it was this weekend."
"Well at least that's something. I guess she's pretty cut up especially since it was her friend who took off with the money."
"She didn't take it too well but no doubt she'll be feeling better after a shopping trip. That usually does the trick."
"Did you decide what you're doing about the whole surrogacy thing?"
"She didn't say anything about it but I can't see us trying again. Not after this whole mess. I mean if we can't trust one of her best friends, who can we trust?"
"Me."
"Excuse me?"
"Me, you can trust me. I'll do it. I'll be your surrogate."
"Thanks Li but I couldn't ask you to do that," he replied.
Lita grabbed hold of his hand, "Then it's a good job you don't have to ask because I'm offering."
"Seriously?"
"Randall Keith Orton, I want to have your baby. Is that serious enough for you?"
Randy couldn't hide his excitement, "Ya mean it?"
Lita rolled her eyes, "Wouldn't say it if I didn't."
He grabbed hold of her pulling her off the counter and into his arms. He swung her around until she was feeling a little dizzy.
"Okay, feeling dizzy. You can stop now."
Randy hugged her tightly, "Thank you, Amy. You have no idea what this means to me."
She smiled at him, "I think I do, Randy. I think I do."
Ten minutes later and Randy was still grinning like a Cheshire cat. John had yet to return from his shower and Edge still hadn't put in an appearance. "I should call Jess. Tell her the great news."
"She's going to be so happy."
"She sure is. Erm Li, can I use your phone? I must have left my cell at home."
"Sure, Randy go right ahead."
"Erm Li?"
"Yes Randy."
"Do you have her number?"
Lita shook her head, "You don't know your own wife's cell phone number?"
"Nope, it's on speed dial," Randy admitted sheepishly.
"Do you know my cell phone number?"
"Of course," he proceeded to rattle off her number.
Lita picked up the phone and dialled Jessie's number before giving the handset to Randy.
"Hello?"
"Hey Baby, I didn't wake you did I?"
"Nope, I was just talking to my mom. She says hi by the way." Jessica replied.
"Tell her hi," Randy returned.
"So, I tried to call you last night."
"I went out and left my cell at home. Sorry," Randy said lamely.
"It doesn't matter, baby. Was there a reason for your call?" she asked.
"What, a man can't just call his wife for no reason?"
"Not in your case," she joked, "What's happened, you sound really chipper this morning," she pointed out.
"You're never going to believe what happened!"
"Try me …"
"Li has volunteered to be our surrogate. Is that just the best news ever?"
"Oh Randy, that is fantastic. Is Lita there? Can I talk to her?" she asked, sounding more excited by the second.
"Sure, hang on," He turned his attention to the redhead, "She wants to talk to you."
Lita accepted the phone from him, "Hi Jess."
"Lita, I don't know what to say but you have just made me that happiest person in the world. I'll never forget you for this. Thank you, so much."
Lita was a little taken aback by her reaction, "No problem, Jessie. I know how much you and Randy want this."
"Ooh, Li I have to go, there's somebody at the door, tell Randy I call him later, okay?"
"Okay, bye."
"Bye." Jessica Orton disconnected the call and pocketed her cell phone.
"What are you looking so happy about?" her blonde companion asked.
"Ness, we have just hit the jackpot." She grinned.
Back at Lita's, Edge had finally made an appearance in the kitchen. The three were now waiting on John to finish his shower before they could decide a plan of action for the day.
"What is taking Cena so long?" Edge asked.
"What took you so long, dude? You were in there for ages." Randy pointed out.
"Says he who's never met a mirror he didn't like." Edge grumbled.
Lita rolled her eyes, "Boys, please. Don't make me bang your heads together."
Randy shot her a grin, "Did you just calls us, boys?"
"Pretty accurate description from where I'm standing," John stated from the kitchen doorway.
"Finally!"
"Shut it, Copeland."
Edge raised an eyebrow," You gonna make me, Cena?"
"You guys, this is not a promo for RAW. All of you shut up, I have something to tell you. Well, Randy and I have something to tell you," the diva said.
"What is it?"
"I've just offered to be Randy and Jessie's surrogate and they have said yes." Lita blurted out quickly.
"What?" Edge asked.
"Are you out of your mind?" an angry John Cena asked.
"Okay, not quite the reaction I was hoping for," Lita admitted.
"Me either, what's your problem, dude?"
"Problem? I don't have a fucking problem," John said as he stormed out of the room.
"Hands up if you think he's lying," Edge commented.
They all raised their hands, each one confused by what had just happened.
"I should go after him. See what that was all about," Randy said.
"No, I'll go," Lita replied as she exited the room.
"Well, that was weird," Edge stated.
"Yeah, tell me about it."
