Randy's POV

"Oh, hey John." I greeted him, slightly nervous.

Here's a summary of mine and John's friendship: We met in OVW in early 2001. At first, we didn't like each other. I thought he was some punk who would never make it out of an OVW ring. He saw me as a guy who was making it only because I'm third generation. We both debuted in 2002 in the WWE. Over time that we started to travel with each other and actually talked, we stopped going after each others throats and became good friends. Hell, he's one of the few people I trust in this business. So when he got with Cari, I was happy for him.

Too bad I ruined that happiness between them. Oops.

"You son of a bitch." I heard John say.

I looked forward to see John coming at me. He looked beyond pissed. I knew I was in some deep shit to get him that mad. When John got close enough to me, he instantly started to swing at me. I tackled him to the ground, trying to keep him off of me. I kicked him off me and ran to hide behind a luggage carrier.

"Do you have any idea the damage you have done?" John shouted at me.

"It's not my fault! You're the one who broke her heart after three years!" I argued back.

"You took advantage of her! You saw she was weak and went for it! And you KNEW she was my girlfriend!" John replied.

"Hey, it's not my fault the girl likes to drink! We both had a few too many drinks in us. Neither of us knew what was going on. We woke up, found rings on our finger and have been trying to figure out this damn thing all day." I told him.

"I can't believe you. If it was any other girl…but it's Cari." John said, his voice a little calmer now.

I stepped out from behind the baggage carrier and sighed. I really had hurt John. I never meant to hurt him. He loved the girl for three years and probably still loves her. They shared so much together and they actually made their relationship work. It's hard on a woman when her guy is on the road 300 days out of the year. I respected him for keeping the relationship going for so long.

But he screwed it up. Sure, I was no help. But he lost his chance with her. I never thought I would hook up with my best friend's girl. But she turned out to be just what I needed. She was spunky and had a bit of flare, but she was caring and nice. Our personalities didn't necessarily match, but that's what the saying "opposites attract" is for.

So it was at this moment I decided to ask the unthinkable.

"John…I know you're mad." I said.

"I'm fucking pissed." He replied flatly.

"And I know you love Cari." I told him.

"Hell I do. But she turned me down. She said that she couldn't be with me after what happened between you two." John told me.

"Wait…she was here? Did I just miss her?" I asked.

"Pretty much. She walked out, you walked in." He informed me.

"Wow…and she wouldn't be with you?" I asked to confirm.

"You either. Don't get your damn hopes up. She said she was moving on without the both us. You have to focus on your career and I just…well, I wasn't the best." John said, cutting himself off.

I tried to let those words sink in, but they wouldn't. Cari thought that my career was more important than being together. This morning, my image and career were top priority. I couldn't have a shotgun wedding ruin my image as a WWE champion! This morning, all I wanted to do was get to the bottom of the story and toss her aside so I could move on with life. But as the day went on and spending time with her, I didn't want to let her go. I'm saying I love the girl or anything! I just started to feel an attraction toward her. I started to care for her. I thought that maybe something good could come out of this.

No. I wasn't going to let her be a small chapter in the story of my life. I wanted her to be the whole damn book.

"Look John. I know you hate me for what I did. But we both care about Cari. And I'm starting to care about her a lot. So I'm going to the airport to stop her from getting on her plane home. I don't want her out of my life yet." I admitted to John.

"Dude we have RAW tonight, did you forget that champ?" John asked.

"I don't care about the show. The only thing I care about right now is getting her back. I'm going to that airport and I'm not leaving until she's sitting a cab right next to me. I want her back with me, and I want your okay on this." I told John.

John looked at me like I was asking if it was okay to shoot his family in front of him. At that point I thought John would make it so I couldn't walk out of this hotel. But with his consent or not, I was going to go get her. John walked closer to me and I started to move behind the baggage carrier again. If he was going to swing again, I needed some protection. Instead, he sighed and stuck his hand out.

"You did something to her. I can tell that she cares about you. I knew it was hard for her to walk away from you. Go get her, and take care of her like I would have wanted to." John stated.

"If you love her, why don't you throw me against this wall and go get her?" I asked.

"In the end, I ruined things for us. I made assumptions and ruined the trust we had. You'll be better to her." John replied.

I stuck my hand out and shook Johns. I instantly felt relieved about the situation. I knew John wasn't happy about me getting the girl. He wanted to do what I was doing. But I guess he screwed up with her. I pulled him in for a quick hug before going toward the door.

"Want me to keep you updated?" I asked.

"No. Just bring her back." John said with a weak smile.
