How Taking Down Legacy Failed
"Well, this definitely looks better than the one we were at last week" Ted commented on the new hotel that we were staying in. Me and Cody nodded with agreement. We walked into the reception and went straight to the check in desk.
"Reservations under Dibiase" Ted said to the receptionist. He typed something into his computer and then looked at Ted.
"We need proof that you are " The man said formally. Ted sighed and dug his hand into his pocket. He brought out a mirror. Me and Cody both sent each other a look. Ted looked into the mirror and then smiled at the man.
"Yes, it's definitely me" He said. Just as the man looked to of called security, Cody threw his drivers license at him which was followed by a smack to Ted's head.
"Right, you guys go on, I'm going to go see if the hotel has a shop or something, I'm craving ice cream!" I told them, they nodded and took my bags up to our room. I asked for some directions and found the shop in no time. I was looking for some chocolate ice cream when I felt my phone vibrate.
"Hello?" I said answering it.
"Baby, can you pick up some cookies?" I chuckled. Ted.
"Couldn't you of asked me when we were just in the lobby?" I asked him.
"Well I didn't want them then" He retorted.
"Ok, ok cookie monster I will get your cookies" I said to him, I ushered my shoulder up so it would press the phone up against my ear as I reached out to grab the ice cream, I was about to pull it back when a hand went over mine making me jump and drop my phone in the process. "Shit" I cursed under my breath. I picked up my phone, it wasn't broken, but it did hang up on Ted. I looked up to stare right into the eyes on John. He handed the ice cream to me. "Thanks" I muttered, I started to walk away, but I should of known John wouldn't leave it at that, he followed me over to where I was getting Ted's cookies. "What do you want John?" I asked him.
"I think you know what I want" He was a good actor, he put on his best sad eyes and just starred at me with them. I shook my head at him.
"When are you going to drop this John? What do you really want? Have I hurt your ego is that it?" I said half taunting him.
"Mickie I love you" He reached out to touch my hand, but I moved it. "And I know you love me too" I looked at him as if he was delusional. "You kissed me back, you wanted me as much as I wanted you" I starred at him, before turning on my heels and walking away. There was really no point in denying my case any longer because whatever I say John is still going to think I am madly in love with him. I took Ted's cookies to the counter with my ice cream. I reached into my bag for my purse, but when I looked up I saw that John had already slammed money to pay for me onto the counter. I pushed the money back into his hands and replaced it with mine.
"C'mon baby" He was still following me as I was going back to my room. He definitely wouldn't be able to follow me in there. Not if Ted or Cody can help it! I love those guys. To think a year ago I hated them. Hated Randy too. Who would of thought so much would be so different in just a year. Also a year ago, I thought John was such a sweet guy, I think it was around this time last year I had a crush on him. I was so…ouch! John had yanked me back, I knew I had gone off into a daze and that I stopped hearing a word he had said, but he didn't need to do that.
"John your hurting me" I gritted my teeth and tried to pull away from him. He pulled me into his chest, my back was against the wall and the ice cream & cookies fell to the floor. A part of me loved feeling vulnerable to him, it's the classic love story, a guy has a girl against the wall, they are arguing and then BAM, they kissed; only I don't love John. I used to wish I did, with battling my feelings for Randy and having John there, I just wished things were different, I'm glad I didn't love John though because eventually I would of found out about his affairs and it would have been hell.
"I'll show you that you love me, just you and me one night and if you don't like it then I'll leave you alone" His finger tips stroked my bare skin and he let it slide down my arm. I wasn't going to waste my breath, I turned my head to the side and I was just going to wait for him to just get the message and let go. Ah I wish I didn't do that. Randy was going along the hotel rooms looking from his key to the door numbers; he stopped when he saw me and John. Oh boy, I hope he didn't get the wrong idea. "Baby" I turned to look at John.
"Stop calling me that" I hissed at him, more people especially wrestlers started to fill the corridor, I used this to my advantage, John couldn't do anything whilst they were around. My eyes scanned for Randy, but when I failed to see, I tugged out of John's grip, grabbed the ice cream & cookies and ran.
"Mickie" I heard him calling in the crowd, I didn't turn my head, I got out my phone and called Ted back. I had no idea what number our room was.
"You have reached the apology hotline, to apologise for hanging up on your best friend press 1, for apologises for…" Ted said answering his phone.
"I get it! I get it! It wasn't my fault, I ran into John and dropped my phone" I told him, I was looking at the door numbers as I went passed into hotel room even though I knew I didn't have the number to our hotel room, I guess it was just a reflex.
"Did he do anything?" Ted asked.
"Tried to convince me to give him one night to see if I have feelings for him, I got away, listen I might go to see someone" I wouldn't dare tell him that I wanted to go see Randy. I just feel I need to tell him what he saw between me and John wasn't what he thought. I know it's not necessary, I mean, me and Randy aren't together and I can do whatever I like, but I just didn't want him to think that. "What room are we in?"
"Room 118" Ted replied. "Has a ring to it doesn't it!"
"I can almost feel your grin through the…" I then heard a dial tone. I starred at my phone. "Hello?" No answer. "Did you just hang up on me?" Again no answer. I flipped my phone shut. "Touché" I scan the hotel room numbers until I came to 118. Well our room is right here, should I go see Randy? Is there much point? Sam will probably be there so I won't be able to see him. I'm just going to leave it. He can think whatever he likes, we are not together. I need to get myself organised! I keep changing my bloody mind about everything. I just walked straight in; I guess the guys forgot to lock it.
"Alright so we are suppose to have this on for 8-10 minutes" My jaw dropped, Cody & Ted both gasped when they saw me.
"You said you wouldn't be back till later!" Ted pointed out in horror.
"I changed my mind" I couldn't hold it in, I burst into laughter. Both Cody and Ted were wearing face masks. Cody rushed to get a towel to wipe the mask off his face, but I stopped him. "Don't ruin it! It will do wonders for your skin" I tried to keep a straight face. Cody glared at me. I expected this from Ted, but Cody going along with it? "Why are you doing this?"
"It was Ted's idea" Cody pointed his finger in Ted's direction. "I have a date with Ashley tonight and he said that women love this sort of things" He mumbled.
"We do, especially" I reached out my finger and wiped some of the face mask off Cody, I turned to Ted. "Is this eatable?" He nodded, I licked my finger. "Especially chocolate"
"Mines strawberry!" Ted called out. "Where's my ice cream and cookies? Nom Nom Nom" I held it out, he grabbed it and ran away.
"Hey! I paid for those!" I yelled out chasing after him.
"I need friends, I need friends" Ted kept repeating, he was holding all the food whilst looking under everything.
"Cody, I think Ted has finally lost it"
"He is looking for his DVD season of Friends" Cody informed me. My eyes widened in relief, I went up to Ted and hugged him.
"Good news! Your not crazy!"
Melina P.O.V
I walked straight past John and into his hotel room. He was sulking. "What's up?" I asked him. He started to open his mouth to say something, but then it hit me "Let me guess" I cut him off, he waited. "Mickie"
"That girl is stubborn" He mumbled to me, I laughed. If only he knew. If only.
"Giving up the bet so soon?" I smirked at him.
"No way" My smirk dropped. I so wanted to tell him. I know he isn't in love with her, but I still think he should know instead of wasting his time trying to get her into bed. Maybe at the end of this bet I will tell him. I would love to see his face when I tell him all those times they had sex, she was probably thinking of Randy. To be honest I think instead of giving up, he would just be more and more determined to get her. That is what John's problem is; he wants what he can't have. All that time he was with Mickie, I think some where deep down; he knew he didn't have her completely. "This is only the beginning" I rolled my eyes; she was only another belt he wanted around his waist. He flipped out his phone.
"Hello, yes I would like to order some flowers to one Mickie James please" He said, flowers? Is that what he thinks will win her over and make her forgive him? He smirked at me once he put the phone down.
"She is going to love you" I said to him sarcastically.
"Like I said, this is only the beginning" I left him to his plotting on how to Woo Mickie. I ran into Sam and Randy on the way to my room. Wow Sam was big now; she only has a month left to go I think. "Melina!" She squealed when she saw me. She kissed both my cheeks. "It's been so long!"
"Yeah it has been, hello Randy" I grinned at him. He muttered a hello at me.
"What have you been up to these days?" She asked me, my eyes flicked to Randy, he was starring at me as if he was expecting me to reveal all about him and Mickie.
"Not much, I have just come from John's room, he is plotting how to win Mickie back" I couldn't resist bringing her up. He starred at me with interest. He obviously still has a soft spot for her, maybe even more.
"Urg Piggy" Sam said with disgust. Randy rolled his eyes at Sam, as I was thinking earlier what if John knew, what if Sam knew! She'd be disgusted that all this time, Randy has an interest in Mickie, maybe deep down she knows something too as she has always picked Mickie to pick on over everyone.
"I don't know, I heard Mickie was quite popular with the male locker room" I starred at Randy again who looked at me warningly. Sensitive topic?
"Slut" Sam coughed. I just smiled, maybe one day, I will tell Sam all too.
One day.
Got the reviews in just in time!
Here is a preview of chapter 81
"You're an asshole" I spat at him. "Ted's right, you and Sam deserve each other" He shook his head. "You always say you want us to be friends, but when we do talk you act like a complete asshole"
"How am I suppose to act Mickie? Tell me just that much" He snapped at me.
"You could be…"
"Could be what? Nice? Charming? I don't want you to love me Mickie, I don't want your love" Why did I come see him again. "I have a baby on the way, we can't keep going back and forward"
Thanks for all the reviews! Keep them coming!
I have been writing a lot lately so hope to get alot of chapters up! So keep reviewing and the quicker chapter 81 will be up! (:
