When You're Around
Chapter 20
First Week of July
"Are you sure Rachel doesn't mind giving us a ride to the airport?" Randy asked Chloe over the phone. Today was the day he and Chloe were leaving to begin traveling with WWE. He had finally been given the ok to get back to work and her internship started on Monday. Unfortunately, despite Randy's good word for Rachel, she had yet to receive the creative writing job. She had already had two in person interviews and a phone interview and from what he had heard, it was between her and someone else. He had his fingers crossed for Rachel to get the job but he had done all he could and all they could do was wait to see if she got it. Though, it seemed like their waiting was just about over because Randy had heard through the grapevine that they were making the final decision this week. "Because if so, I can drive and just leave my car at the airport."
"Randy, for the millionth time, no," Chloe answered his question. "She doesn't mind at all."
"Alright, only if you're sure." He made sure.
She let out a laugh. "Rachel is perfectly capable of giving us a lift to the airport. Now I want you to finish packing then sit down and relax." She ordered. "Rachel is on her way over and we'll head over to your place from here. Be ready." She said before hanging up. "Man, who knew he was such a worried traveler." She mumbled to herself as she finished packing all her toiletries.
"You sure you packed everything you're gonna need?" Randy asked Chloe as he loaded his bag into the trunk of Rachel's car.
She rolled her eyes. "Yes Randy, I am sure."
"Hey, I'm just checking." He defended as he closed the trunk and pulled her close to him. "I don't want you to forget anything." He said softly as he pressed a kiss to her lips.
She smiled against his lips. "You need to just calm down you worry wart."
Rachel honked the horn and stuck her head out the window. "Alright you two, let's get going or you're going to miss your flight." Chloe laughed and the pair separated before taking their seats in the car.
After they arrived at the aiport, Randy loaded their bags out of the trunk while Rachel and Chloe said goodbye. "I don't want to leave." Chloe pouted at her friend.
Rachel rolled her eyes. "Oh come on, don't be like Jess." She said, referring to their friend who had practically cried while saying bye to Chloe earlier. "You'll be back on Wednesday."
"I know but it will be weird being there alone." Chloe said.
"Hey." Randy said, insulted. "What am I? Chopped liver?"
Chloe laughed at him. "You know what I mean. I wish you could be there."
Rachel smiled as she hugged her friend. "Hey, with any luck, I'll be on the road with you before you know it."
"I hope so!" Chloe said, desperately wanting her friend to get the job. "Let me know when you get the call."
"I definitely will." Rachel said as she released her friend and turned to the man who just closed her trunk. "Randy, my man, take care of my girl here." She said as she hugged him.
He laughed as he pulled away. "I'll try my best."
"Alright you tow," She said when one of the police blew his whistled at her, telling her to leave. "I gotta get going. See you Wednesday." She said before getting in her car. Chloe waved to her friend as she drove away before following Randy into the airport.
After their plane landed, Randy rented a car and they headed to their hotel. Randy checked in and pulled Chloe away from the desk by her elbow when she went to check in herself. She looked up at him confused. "Come on, I called this morning and had them connect your room to mine." He said as he handed her a key card.
"Randy," She scolded as she allowed him to lead her to elevator. "I can get my own hotel room."
He smiled down sweetly at her as he pulled her close. "I know you can but I want you close." He put his hand on the small of her back and lead her into the elevator once it arrived at the lobby. Chloe rested one of her hands on his chest once the door closed and she pushed herself up give him a small kiss. Randy, of course, couldn't resist deepening the kiss. He had originally just planned on telling her to crash in his room but he didn't want to push her into anything so he'd decided to ask for the connecting room. He hoped though that soon she would feel comfortable sharing a room with him.
The elevator doors dinged open, though the couple didn't separate, much less notice someone walking inside. "Randy's got a girlfriend?" A voice asked playfully. The pair immediately broke away from their embrace and looked at whoever had just entered the elevator.
"Hey Adam," Randy smiled at the man. "Yeah, this is my girlfriend Chloe. Chloe this is one of my good friends, Adam Copeland."
Chloe smiled as she reached out a hand to the young man. "Nice to meet you,"
Adam smiled back as he shook the woman's hand. "You too. You better take care of this one, though I can only imagine he's a handful." He joked, causing Chloe to laugh as she looked over at Randy.
Randy glared jokingly at his friend. "Ha ha,"
"Glad you're back man, it hasn't been the same without you." Adam commented truthfully.
Randy grinned. "You say that now but we'll see how it is when I'm beating your ass."
Adam just rolled his eyes. "Yeah, yeah, yeah old man." He turned his attention to Chloe. "So are you just here to see his return?"
She smiled excitedly. "Actually I've got an internship with creative."
Adam raised a brow, obviously impressed. "Really?" When she nodded in confirmation, he gave Randy a thumbs up. "Got a winner man,"
Randy smiled and wrapped his arm around Chloe's shoulders. "I know. So where you headed?" He asked as he noticed they were almost to his floor.
Adam shrugged as the doors popped open. "Gonna go get John. We've got a signing in an hour or so. See you later man, and it was nice to meet you Chloe." He said as he stepped out of the elevator.
"You too," She said as she waved bye. Once the doors closed she looked up at her boyfriend. "He's nice." Randy nodded as they arrived at their floor, the one right above where Adam got off. They made their way down the hall as they searched for their rooms.
"So when do we head to the arena?" Chloe asked as she wheeled her luggage in the room.
"A couple hours," Randy answered. He was set to wrestle a match at the house show tonight just to make sure he would be ready for a match on Monday. She walked through the connecting doors and set her things in there before walking back to Randy's room. She watched as he set his things down and ran a hand over his face.
"So we've got some time?" She said seductively as she sat on the bed. Randy turned around and she smiled at him before unzipping her jacket and taking it off. Randy's eyes darkened lustfully as he slowly made his way over to her as he took his shirt off.
A/N: Thanks again for all your reviews! It's funny how you guys predict some of the things I have planned! :)
