When You're Around

Chapter 13

"You Little Hussy! You're sleeping with him aren't you?" Chloe laughed as she listened to the voicemail Jessica had left her the night before. She had woken up before Randy and had the urge to use the bathroom. On her way back to bed though she checked her phone and saw Jessica had called so she'd gone back into the bathroom to listen to it and not disturb a sleeping Randy. "I was waiting up for you and you never came back and now you're not answering you phone? Yeah, you're having sex. Well it better be good and worth keeping your best friend waiting up for you all night." Chloe heard Jess yawn. "Alright, I'm going to bed, see you tomorrow and you better be ready to tell me every detail. I'll have popcorn ready when you get home. Love ya!" Chloe smiled as she hung up her phone and left the bathroom.

"There you are," Randy said sleepily as she came into eyesight.

She smiled and crawled into bed after placing her phone on the bedside table. "Sorry I had to go the bathroom and I saw I had a voicemail so I listened to it."

Randy frowned when he saw what she was wearing. "You're wearing my shirt," He said as he tugged the hem.

"Is that ok?" She asked confused.

He smiled devilishly and rolled over so he hovered over her. "I prefer you in nothing," He said in a husky voice. Chloe smiled against Randy's lips as he kissed her. She wound her arms around his neck and moaned into his mouth as he deepened the kiss. Randy groaned and broke the kiss when he heard the doorbell chime.

"Ignore it," Chloe said as she pulled his head back down to hers. Randy complied and trailed his lips from her lips, across her jaw and down to her neck. All the while his hands slowly pulled her shirt up, his knuckles dragging across her skin. Randy pulled away for a second so he could pull the shirt over her head. Once he tossed the shirt on the floor, his lips were back to work on her neck. This time it was Chloe who groaned when the doorbell rang again. Randy lifted his head to look into her eyes.

"I'll be back," He said as he stood up, quickly pulling on his boxers and jeans that were laying on the floor, where they had been discarded the night before. "Don't move a muscle." He said as he looked at her laying on his bed naked. Finally he tore his eyes away and left the room, taking the stairs two at a time, before opening the front door. He was both surprised and annoyed to see Sam standing on the other side of his door. "What do you want?" He asked with a frown.

Sam walked past him to stand in the house. "What, no 'Hi Sam, how are you?'" She asked with her hands on her hips.

Randy narrowed his eyes. "What do you want?" He repeated impatiently.

"Fine, we won't waste anytime then." She said. "So I've been thinking about this a lot lately."

"About what?" He asked confused.

"At first I thought I was just being ridiculous but the more I think about it, the more I think I'm right." She said, ignoring his question.

Randy rolled his eyes. This was just like Sam to talk in code. "Sam, what are you talking about?"

"Who do you take me for? A fool?" She asked.

Randy shook his head and ran a hand across his face in frustration. "I have no idea what you're talking about." He said calmly.

She let out a sarcastic laugh. "You know exactly what I'm talking about." Randy remained silent and looked at his ex, telling her to get on with it. "Fine, you don't want to say it? I will. You like Lindsey's teacher."

Randy looked at her blankly to tell her she was wrong, but inwardly he was wondering how she knew. "Sam, I don't have time for this,"

"Please! I saw the way you looked at her at that party she threw here. You couldn't take your eyes off of her! And then that made me think about how often you offer to pick Lindsey up from school now. Ever since you went to career day, you jump at the chance to go to her school. And now Lindsey tells me you invited Miss Ryan over for Easter?" She questioned.

He shrugged, trying to play it off as nothing. He knew he wouldn't mind telling Sam that he was seeing Chloe, if that's what you would call what they were doing, but he had a feeling Chloe wanted to wait a while. She seemed liked a pretty private person. "We saw her at the grocery store and she was going to be alone so I thought it would be a nice gesture."

Sam shook her head, not believing what he was saying. "I swear to God Randy, if you make a move on her…"She trailed off, not quite knowing what she would do at this moment. "Just leave her alone. She's Lindsey's teacher for God Sakes. Stop being selfish and think of your daughter."

Randy just shook his head. "First of all, technically Chloe isn't Linds' teacher anymore." He said with a cheeky smile while caused Sam to growl in frustration. "And Lindsey would be just fine. But for the record, you are wrong and we are just friends."

Sam just rolled her eyes. "Whatever Randy, do what you want. All I'm saying is that it is completely inappropriate for you to be involved with Lindsey's teacher,"

"Former teacher," Randy corrected smartly. Sam glared at him before leaving the house, slamming the door behind her. Randy chuckled as he walked back up the stairs. When he walked into his room he frowned hen he saw Chloe wearing his shirt again, standing at the foot of the bed. "Aw, you put it back on," He said as he walked over to her, placing his hands on her hips. By the look on Chloe's face when she looked up, he knew she heard his conversation with Sam. "You heard what Sam said." He stated.

She nodded. "I wasn't trying to listen but she was loud." Randy chuckled at that.

"Listen," He said seriously. "You shouldn't listen to Sam, what does she know?"

"It doesn't bother you that she's so against you being with me?" She asked.

"Of course not. All I care about is if you want this?" She nodded in confirmation. "Then I could care less what Sam wants or doesn't want."

"What about Lindsey?" She asked as she gently put her hands on his sides.

Randy let out a breath. "We'll deal with that when the time comes."

She nodded. "If it's okay, I'd like to keep this quiet for a while, at least until we figure out how we feel about each other."

Randy nodded, though he already knew how he felt for her. He really liked her and he only saw those feelings becoming stronger as time went on. But if she needed more time than he would give it to her. "Sounds good," He said before placing a small kiss on her lips. "Come, lets go make some breakfast and then I'll get you home."


After they made breakfast together, they sat at the kitchen table to eat the food. "So tell me a bit about Jessica and Rachel. How'd you meet them?" Randy asked curiously.

Chloe waited to swallow the food in her mouth before answering. "Well I've known Rachel since I moved here when I was six but we didn't become best friends until I was like ten."

"Why's that?" Randy asked, wanting to know everything about her he could.

She shrugged. "Well I'd seen her around school but we never really talked. But then we finally had a class together and her family moved down the street from me so we spent more time together and realized that we actually liked each other."

Randy laughed. "And Jessica?"

"I met Jessica through Rachel. I had just back here after college and I was looking for a place to live because I didn't want to move back in with my parents. And I guess Rachel met Jessica in college and told me she needed a roommate so after meeting her and realizing that we got along great, I moved in." She explained. Randy nodded. "So how'd you meet John?" She asked because she too wanted to know as much about him as possible.

"Nothing interesting. We met at OVW, a developmental territory for WWE, and became good friends." He said.

"Developmental territory?" She asked confused.

He chuckled. "Yeah, when WWE likes you, they send you to a developmental territory and they train you some more to see if you're ready for the main roster." He explained to her.

"Oh," She said with a smile. "You learn something new everyday." Being a teacher for a living, it was nice for her to be taught something for a change. After they finished breakfast and cleaned, Chloe changed back into the clothes she'd worn the night before and they headed out so Randy could take her home.

"You sleep well?" Randy asked as they pulled away from his house.

"So good," She said with a smile as she looked at him and saw him grin. "I might have to kidnap you so I sleep like that every night."

Randy raised an eyebrow and took his eyes away from the road momentarily to look at her. "That could be arranged." He said seductively while she laughed. It wasn't long before they pulled up in front of her apartment building. "Let me walk you up," Randy said as unbuckled his seat belt. Chloe reached her hand out to touch his hand, causing him to look up at her.

"You don't have to. I'll be just fine." She said.

"I want to," He said.

She smiled at his politeness. "Really, I'll be fine." She said before leaning across to kiss his lips. She intended it to be short but Randy couldn't resist deepening it. When Chloe pulled away she placed a kiss on his cheek. "Thanks again, I had a great time."

Randy smiled back. "Me too, I'll give you a call later today or tomorrow."

"Sounds great," She said before opening the door and stepping out. Randy watched her walk away. He was captivated by her; the way the dress hugged her curves, the cute braid she put her messy hair in, even her bare feet and the way she swung her arm that held her heels. She made the 'walk of shame', as they call it, look charming. Randy couldn't wipe the smirk on his face off as he drove home. He knew he was getting attached, which he swore he would never do after Sam, but he didn't care. Chloe was the only thing on his mind these days and he had never been so happy.
