Right Where We Left Off

Chapter 13

After the show, both John and Paige were too exhausted to do anything so they just headed to their room to get some much needed sleep. Paige didn't know about John, but she fell asleep super easily. But was rudely awoken by knocking at…3 am?! She thought after she glanced at the clock. She looked over at John and rolled her eyes as she could tell, by his eyes shut tightly and his obnoxious snoring, that he was still asleep. She groggily got up, crossing her arms over her chest to keep herself somewhat warm in a small t-shirt and shorts. She opened the door, eyes squinting from the blinding light in the hall.

"Randy?" Her voice croaked a little, partly from just waking up and partly due to seeing him just in basketball shorts and holding a sweatshirt. "It's 3 am."

He cringed a little bit and nodded. "I know and I'm sorry. But I couldn't sleep,"

She nodded slowly then shrugged. "What do you want me to do about it?"

"Put on a sweatshirt, come with me." He said with a small smile.

She narrowed her eyes. "Where are we going?"

"Just come on." He said, gently pushing her back into the room so she could get a jacket. She grabbed one, slipping it over her head as she walked back to the door.

"This better be good Orton." She said tiredly as Randy took her hand and dragged her down the hall.

"It will be, trust me." He replied.


"Wow, Randy, this is…" Paige trailed off as she stepped onto the roof of the hotel after Randy. She walked towards the middle and took her time doing a 360 degree turn to get a full view of the city lights at night. "This is beautiful."

He smiled proudly and stood next to her. "Yeah, but what's truly amazing is that each city is different and each one gets a little bit better."

She looked up at him and couldn't help but let a smile play at her lips. "You go up on roofs often?"

"When I can't sleep," He said. She gently pushed herself up against him and leaned up to give him a small peck on the lips. "and when I have a beautiful girl on my arm."

She laughed. "So you bring all the girls up here?" She asked as she let her gaze travel back over the city.

"No, just you." He said, making her look back at him and smile. He pressed a kiss on the top of her head and gave her hand a little tug. "Come on, let's sit down." He took a seat, pulling her down to sit right next to him. He wrapped his arm around her waist and she let her head fall on his shoulder. They just sat there, just like that, for about a half hour, not saying a word. But it was far from an awkward silence; it was actually quite comfortable. They were both consumed in their own thoughts and enamored with the view. "You know," Randy said, breaking the silence. Paige turned to face him but turned away when she saw his gaze was firmly planted on the city in front of them. "I didn't like you when I first met you. It was nothing against you but, as John's best friend I was worried about what you coming on the road would mean. I mean, he has told me about you and from the sounds of it, you broke his heart and I didn't want a repeat of that." She could tell that he was looking at her so she looked back. "But now that I know you, I see what all the fuss is about. I feel like I've known you my whole life instead just a few days. You are an amazing women and I really can't wait to learn more about you." He pushed a stray piece of hair behind her ear. "I'm not going to lie, I like you, and that just scares me because I'm not the kind of guy that dates; I either sleep with you or you're just a friend. This may seem sudden but I kinda want to meet somewhere in between with you."

"I'm honored." She said with a laugh, causing his smirk to creep on his face.

"You should be. It's weird though, I really wanted to hate you, but I just can't."

She couldn't help but giggle a little bit. Her hand found it's way to his face and she cupped his cheek. "Well I'm glad you don't because I like you too." She leaned up to give him a small kiss but he held their lips together and deepened it. She let out a sigh of satisfaction as his tongue entered her mouth. It had been far too long since she had made out with a man, and it was beyond nice. They separated moments later, breathing slightly heavy and smiling as they pressed their foreheads together. Paige involuntarily shivered as a gust of wind hit them and Randy chuckled.

"Come on, let's head inside. You must be freezing." He said, gesturing to her bare legs. She nodded and watched as he stood up before helping her up. He walked her back to her room, stopping to lean in close and plant a firm but gently kiss on her lips. "Goodnight,"

"Goodnight," She said, pressing her lips to his once more. "See you tomorrow?"

He smiled and caressed her cheek with his hand. "Sounds perfect," He placed one last kiss on her forehead before walking down the hall and disappearing around the corner. After she watched him leave, she couldn't help but smile happily and she went inside her hotel room to finally get some sleep.


The next morning, Paige woke up to the sweet, sweet smell of doughnuts. She opened her eyes slowly, as soon as the smell assaulted her nose, and jumped back a bit when she saw John sitting next to her bed, holding an open box full of doughnuts next to her face. He laughed at her reaction.

"I'm glad I amuse you." She murmured in her angry morning voice.

"Sorry, didn't mean to scare you."

"You didn't scare me, I was just surprised to see you so close in the morning." She replied as she reached into the box, pulling out a maple doughnut. "You know the way to my heart, that's for sure." She said taking a bit of the heavenly treat, letting out a sigh at it's deliciousness.

"I try, I try. I got you coffee as well," He said, pointing to the cup of coffee on her bedside table.

"Ah!" She exclaimed, throwing a hand to her heart and lying down on the bed. "My hero," John chuckled and rolled his eyes.

"Alright, alright, little miss sarcastic, get up. You wouldn't want to fall behind would you?" He asked as he stood up to change clothes.

"No, I guess that would be bad," She said, finishing her first doughnut and taking a sip of her coffee. She quickly showered, dried her hair and straightened it. She wrapped herself up in her towel, walking out of the bathroom, grabbing her cup of coffee. She also grabbed a doughnut to eat while she figured out what to wear.

"Hey, so Paige, while I was at the gym this morning, I was thinking," John said from his spot on the couch dressed in jeans and one of his John Cena t-shirts. She turned around and nodded for him to continue. "Well we haven't spent much time together while you've been on the road, want to have dinner together?" He asked.

She smiled. "Of course, that sounds like fun."

"Great," John said with a smile. Paige grabbed the clothes she'd decided on and brought them into the bathroom with her to change. After she got dressed in skinny jeans, a white tank top and a brick red long sleeve cardigan that hit her butt, she walked out of the bathroom and slid on her silver flats.

"Alright, so let's see what's on the agenda for the day." She said as she turned on her computer, opened up her planner to the right day and browsed through her phone for her calendar. After everything was all booted up, her and John went over his schedule and headed out for the day. It was another endless day that left Paige worn out. She wanted to just go back to the hotel and curl up in bed but she promised John they'd go out to dinner and that was a promise she wanted to honor. After John's house show, they headed to a small diner between the arena and the hotel. On the drive to the diner, Paige got a text message from Randy. It read: Dinner?

She smiled and replied: Sorry, promised John I'd have dinner with him. Tomorrow?

She didn't have to wait long for him to reply: Perfect.

John couldn't help but notice her smiles when she would get a text message. "Who ya texting?" He asked casually with a playful smile.

She looked up and blushed at being caught. "Oh just Randy,"

John raised an eyebrow and focused on the road. "Randy? Orton?"

"Mmhmm, we're going to have dinner together tomorrow."

John frowned. He knew he had a girlfriend but he couldn't help but feel a bit territorial when it came to Paige. She was his girlfriend first after all, didn't he have some type of say so in her dating his best friend? "Like a date?"

She smiled and shrugged. "I guess so, I don't really know."

"Do you like him?"

"I don't know much about him. But what I know, I like." She answered truthfully.

John nodded but didn't say anything else. He didn't like this. He didn't like this one bit.
