How Taking Down Legacy Failed
Becky's P.O.V
"If you could get a piercing anywhere on your body where would it be?" Mickie asked as the two of us quickly grabbed some breakfast.
"A piercing?" I repeated, "I guess my nose. I've always wanted one but I've always chickened out. You?"
"Same!" Mickie exclaimed and we began making our way back upstairs, both carrying stacks of toast, "I don't think it'd suit me though."
"Agree," I nodded, "It only looks good on a sort of person. Guys can look hot with a nose piercing… anyway, why do you ask?"
Mickie shrugged, "Whilst I was waiting for you, I heard Jack Swagger telling someone that he had his 'special area' pierced."
"Nasty!"
"Tell me about it!"
We got to our floor and I saw Cody leaning against my door. I shot a nervous glance at Mickie and then said in a friendly voice, "Hey, Cody, what's up?"
I noticed Mickie giving us suspicious looks but Cody was completely nonchalant, "I was just going to come and see if you knew where Mickie was," he shrugged, "Randy said that she'd gone off with you."
"You were looking for me?" Mickie repeated.
Cody nodded and hunched a shoulder, "I just wanted to wish you look about today… you're seeing Vince, right?"
Mickie shuddered, "Don't remind me. Well, I better get ready to leave," she nudged me on the hip, "We'll continue this conversation about hot piercings later. Bye," she smiled at both of us before disappearing into her and Randy's room.
"Hot piercing's?" Cody asked, as if we were just friends. Since anyone could be looking or overhearing.
"Yeah. Apparently Swagger has his 'dork' pierced."
"I thought we agreed that Dork was a whale's?"
"We did but you know what I mean!"
"And you and Mickie think that's hot?"
"No! We both agreed that nose piercings were hot!" I explained, "Anyway, I guess I'll see you around."
"Sure." Cody gave me a secretive smirk, one that definitely hinted that we weren't 'just friends', "See you later."
Mickie's P.O.V
"Hey babe, are you ready to go?" Randy asked me coming from the bedroom. We were going to go the arena to meet with Vince; John will also be there hence why Randy wanted to go. He was going to give us the scripts for the start of mine and John's romantic storyline, it sickens me.
"Shh" I told Randy, he looked at me confused. "Ted is in a bad mood"
"How so?"
"Watch" I pointed to the kitchen. Ted was wiping up some of the dishes, Randy looked at me confused, I gestured for him to keep watching. Not long after Ted dropped one of the dishes.
"Dammit Mickie! You're grounded!" He yelled out in frustration. I looked back at Randy who looked even more confused. After being in Legacy with him, you would have thought he would have expected this kind of behaviour from Teddy. "Forget this shit" He jumped on the couch and put on the TV. I gave Randy a smile which meant I was up to something.
"Oh no Mickie" He shook his head, too late; I made my way over to Ted.
"Your in your late twenties Theodore and you still like Spongebob, really?"
"Random, but if you must know, yes I do, Spongebob is awesome"
"I gathered as your watching it now so wasn't entirely random on my part" I grinned at Ted, he glared at me.
"I have better things to do then describe to you how epic Spongebob is" He made a shooing motion with his hands.
"Don't even bother lying to me Theodore, I know for a fact you don't have better things to do" I retorted.
"My life doesn't resolve around you baby, It revolves around Morgan Freeman, he is god after all" Ted scoffed at me, now I was confused.
"Sadly, I cannot relate, I don't know who that is" I told Ted, he turned and looked at me in disgust.
"HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW WHO MORGAN FREEMAN IS! YOU ARE A FREAK!" Ted panted. "Search him on Google or else!"
"Shut the fuck up, you like Spongebob" I growled, I got my phone out and search this Morgan Freeman fellow, as soon as I saw him, I knew who he meant. The god from Bruce Almighty! "Oh him!"
"Up yours biatch!"
"For fuck sake Ted!"
"Get the fuck out Mickie!"
"Weren't you watching Spongebob the other day?" Randy asked me coming into our conversation. My eyes shifted, Ted raised his brow in amusement.
"Oh really?" Ted smirked.
"Haha, Randy you're so funny" I playfully punched him shoulder. "We should really get going"
"I wasn't joking, you were singing along with the theme tune and everything"
"Well baby" Ted put his arm around me and had a smug look on his face. "The true hero won this war *dances like no one thinks I'm an idiot* You can't argue with these moves" Describing his actions! Yes!
"*Whispers* That guys an idiot…"
"Oh god, when you two start describing actions, we won't be leaving for a while, will we?"
"*Continues to dance*" Ted ignored him.
"*Continues to think that guys an idiot*" I too ignored Randy.
"Hello all" Becky greeted walking into the room with Cody following close behind, Jeez; I wonder what they have been up to! It stressed me out a lot as I knew one of these days Randy is going to figure out that I knew all about them and that I didn't tell him. I mean I could play clueless to him, but I did not want to lie to him, but I couldn't betray Becky & Cody's trust and tell him. Fuck my life! I looked over at Ted and starred at him, my eyes then widened.
"What?" He asked me noticing I was starring.
"We are never going to leave" Randy looked up at the ceiling.
"What do you want to be when you're older! Because I've just come up with the best idea!" I grinned excitedly.
"His number one ambition is to be a woman" Becky commented and smirked innocently at Ted.
"No, I disagree" Cody spoke up. We all looked at him. "I think his goal would to be and I quote 'Eradicate the Cody disease from the earth' That really was a low blow by the way Ted"
"Ok, lots of things to comment on!" Ted said rubbing his hands together. He turned to me. "Mickie, I'm listening" He then turned to Becky. "What do you mean ambition? It's already a reality girlfriend! *Snap*" He then turned to Cody. "Codykins, I don't ever remember saying that. And why would I eradicate the Codys? Without them who would we laugh at?"
"You said it once" Cody pointed out.
"And you know how on Monday, when you were waiting for the bus, you kept putting your hand in that guy's hair and it magically disappeared?" He stroked his chin and then nodded. "Well….YOU SHOULD BECOME A MAGICIAN!"
"Yeah well Codykins, it's your word against mine, and who's going to believe a Cody?" Ted grinned, he then turned to me. "I like it Mickie, that can be my plan B for life"
"Ah, I'm such a genius"
"Well" Randy spoke up. "He admitted he was a woman, that's something"
"Randy if you have seen in here" Ted tugged on his trousers." Like your girlfriend has"
He then winked at me. "Then you would not believe what I just said"
"He will never let me live that down" I mumbled. I finally got up and left to go to the arena with Randy.
"Hey baby, I have a joke for you"
"If it's sexist I don't want to hear it"
"How do you know when a woman is about to say something smart?" Ted asked me grinning. I glared at him. "She starts her sentence by saying 'A man once told me...'" Randy and him laughed and high five's each other. "I'm such a joker"
"That's not fu…"
"What's worse than a male chauvinist pig?" Randy then asked me.
"Don't make me smack you Mister" I warned him.
"A woman who wont do as she's told" Ted answered the joke. "Oh! Randy! I got one, How many male chauvinists does it take to change a light bulb?""None, let her do the dishes in the dark" Randy took his turn to answer Ted's joke.
"No wonder you two don't get dates" I rolled my eyes.
"Err, excuse me babe" Randy got up and wrapped his arm around my waist. "No date?" He then grinned.
"Yeah, that's right because you know what Randall?" He crossed his arms and watched in amusement. "It's starts with O and ends with ver" I pushed him back. He stumbled a little and smirked.
"And err, baby? Look at me, I don't get dates? That's the biggest joke since Wo…."
"If you say women's rights I will commit an act of violence upon you"
"Who is the sexist one now?" Ted taunted.
"Will you guys stop bickering!" Cody stepped in between us. "Your giving my dashing head a headache"
"Your dashing head?" Randy sniggered.
"Watch it snake boy" Cody warned him.
"Don't ever" Randy paused and gave Cody his scary viper look "Call me that again"
"Mickie is the one who calls you it behind your back" Cody told him, Randy slowly turned towards me.
"Is that right?" He ticked with his tongue.
"Hey, don't get started with me snake boy, you do sexist jokes, I call you snake boy, I guess we're even" I placed my hands on my hips and stood my ground.
"If that catches on, you will never hear the end of my sexist jokes" He said teasingly, swaying his hips closer to me.
"I wouldn't wish that torture upon anyone" I groaned.
"And there! Now your one step closer to be dashing" I turned to see Cody had applied a face mask on Ted. I placed my hand over my mouth to stop me from erupting into laughter. I saw Randy was about to crack up so I nudged him in the stomach.
Becky's P.O.V
"Dudette!"
I glanced up from where I was drinking my coffee to see Ted skipping towards me. He dropped down next to me with a smile on his face.
"Ted," I nodded.
He dropped down opposite me and gave me a 'friendly' punch on the arm.
"What's going on?" He asked, tipping back in his chair, "You're alone."
"It's called… experiencing some peace and quiet," I told him pleasantly.
Ted made a noise like a horse and shook his head, "That's disgusting!" He placed his fingertips together and smiled wickedly, "I thought I'd set you up with Evan Bourne!"
I groaned, "Ted, I told you that I don't want to be set up!"
Ted looked frustrated, "You're so boring! Give me one good reason!"
"One good reason?" I repeated and struggled to think of a good reason. I decided an altered version of the truth, "I'm interested in someone."
Ted looked excited and leant forward, "Who? Is he hot? Does he work for the WWE? Oh my god, this is so exciting! Does he like you back?"
"I don't know… it's complicated." I admitted, "He likes me… I know that but… he's committed, y'know?"
"Has anything happened between you?" Ted asked, cupping his chin in his hand and raising an eyebrow.
"Uhuh," I murmured, studying my hands.
"Does anyone know about it?"
I thought about Mickie. And technically my boss, "A couple of people."
Ted had a strange expression on his face, "I see…"
"Maybe he's just out of my league," I sighed, "he's girlfriend is… perfect."
Ted was suddenly smirking, "Well, I can't disagree."
I glanced at him in confusion, "Huh?"
Ted grabbed my hand and gave me a sympathetic smile, "Becky, Becky, Becky," he said sadly.
"Um… yes?"Ted rolled his eyes and gently put both hands over mine, "Becky, don't get me wrong, you're a great girl – and you're hot! However, I don't think it would work between us."
I choked on my own airway and stared at him in shock, "Ted! It's not-"
"I mean, that one time between us was great. Fantastic, even," Ted said, gently patting my hand, "I just don't think it's something that should happen again. Especially with you being Randy's sister!"
"Ted-"
Ted tutted, "Okay, okay, if you really want to, we can do it again-"
"Ted," I said sharply and he shut up but smiled at me, "It's not you, okay?"
Ted blinked and actually looked behind him before turning back to face me, "Then… who?"
I rolled my eyes, "No one worth it."
"No one… worth it? Definitely not me then!"
"I'm giving up," I told him, "it's not like they're going to make some grand gesture of romance or whatever. I'm just… a plaything for them." I sighed, "Nothing meaningful, so I'm giving up." Although I was saying it, there was a part of me that doubted it. Once I'd see Cody, I'd change my mind back.
"Good for you!" Ted congratulated, he then paused and leant closer to me and whispered, "Are you sure it's not me?"
Mickie's P.O.V
Raw was later on tonight, but we had to go earlier to meet with Vince about the whole new storyline.""My magic brings Voldemort to the yard, and I'm like, that's hurting my scar." I sang on the way there.
"Err babe?" Randy asked chuckling.
"Oh god dammit, Ted was singing it and has it stuck in my head" I groaned, using my hand to smack my forehead. "Can you imagine if I started singing that in front of Vince and John?"
"Maybe it will turn John completely off you" Randy teased, his face then turned serious.
"Maybe he is already off me" I suggested.
"Babe, look at you, of course he isn't" Randy said softly, I blushed and turned my head to the side. I thought I was getting better at containing my urge to blush, I guess not. "Blusher"
"Don't" I told Randy sternly. "That's what Ted used to call Melina and she hated it as well"
"Fine, fine" Randy put one hand up in self defence. "Blusher" He then coughed.
"Snake boy" I coughed back.
"You did not just call me snake boy" Randy shook his head. Randy pulled the car over, we were on a dessert road. He un did he seat belt and turned to me.
"Err.. No" I smiled innocently, reaching over to start the engine. Randy caught my wrist and pushed it back to my seat. "Randy" I chuckled nervously. "We have to get over" He leaned over and placed his hand just above my knee, he slowly glided his hand up. "Randy" I repeated, pushing his hand away. "We are going to be late"
"So?" He breathed out. I just turned to face out the window. "Oh I get it…you just don't want to kiss me"
"Randall" I groaned.
"No I get it"
"Don't do that!" I continued to use my whiny voice. "Trying to make me feel guilty, you're a bad person" Randy smirked and roughly pushed his arm through the small gap between my back and my seat, pulled me over so I was now straddling him with the steering wheel digging into my back. "Randy, what if someone sees?"
"Look around, no ones here" He ran his thumb softly over the top of my hip bone, I had to lean more into him to escape the pain of the steering wheel. "I don't want him to touch you" He mumbled into my hair. "I don't want him near you and the thought of him kissing you make me sick"
"Let's not talk about it" I told him, laying into his chest.
"We can't avoid it forever as much as I would like to" He sighed. "I mean, in a few minutes we are…" I cut him off, I didn't want to speak about John, I didn't need to hear anymore of him, I was sick to death of it, so to stop Randy, I gave him what he wanted. I kissed him, I snuggled down a bit so I was more comfortable, but we still maintained the kiss. My arms were around his neck so I was bringing him down with my, his hands were brushing over my thigh, a deep growl coming from him escapes his lips. We broke apart as we became breathless, we just starred at each other for a bit. "Damn I hate you can do that" I grinned and moved back to my seat.
"It's a gift, now drive…snake boy"
I was hoping Vince would change his mind and decided some other diva was fit for the part, but unfortunately, he hadn't. I wanted Randy there with me, because he made me feel safe, but part of me wishes he wasn't because I know this must be hard to him and he gets angry quite a lot.
We arrived and I could sense that Randy was as nervous as me, although, Randy does not like to show it. We walked in to see John leaning back on the couch looking all smug, I wanted to punch him. "Mickie, Randy, take a seat" Vince told us, I hesitated before taking the seat opposite John. "Here are your scripts" I hesitated once again before taking the script, I was worried what might be in it and what I would have to do. I looked at Randy, his arm was attached to being around me, pulling me closer to make sure John knew his place, he was also starring darkly at John, his eyes never left his. I looked down at my script, I scanned it, I sighed with relief when I saw that there was no kiss scene. Vince caught on. "Not yet anyway" He smirked at me, I bet John was paying him, stupid bastard. "Actually Randy, whilst you're here there is something I'd like to show you, come"
"I'm not leaving Mickie" Randy said to him sternly.
"I wasn't asking you Randy, I was telling you"
"I'm not leaving her with him" Randy just snarled, I wish I had the courage to talk to the boss like Randy did.
"He won't do anything, he is on Raw premises"
"I don't care, I'm not leaving her" Vince sent me look, I looked away from Vince and turned my head to John, I didn't want to be left alone with him.
"Randy, you go, I will be…"
"No" He snapped. "I'm not leaving you, you know what he is capable of"
"Would it help if we had security in here?" Vince asked.
"Look, why can't she come with me?"
"I think these two need to sort out there issues" Vince told him, Randy growled. Vince called for security to come in. "Look, she will be safe."
"Five minutes" Randy said softly, he turned to John. "If you so much as touch her…"
"She will be fine!" Vince half yelled, Randy starred hard at John, his eyes, so stone, ice cold. I had never seen eyes so hardened and so chilled. He looked at me and kissed my forehead before leaving with Vince. Well, this is awkward.
"So, looking forward to this storyline we are doing?" John leaned against the wall and smirked. I ignored him. "Looks like fate is trying to tell us something"
"How's your girlfriend?" I asked him, fake smiling.
"Jealous?"
"John, this is me, I despise you" I hissed. "Just wanted to see if she had come to her senses yet"
"Nope, she still adores me" He grinned. "Like you once did" He must have drugged her, I know too well about that "Not too happy about our storyline though"
"Makes two of us" I muttered.
"Your not scared of me anymore…why?"
"Because" I didn't actually know why I wasn't afraid anymore.
"Because?"
"I see you for what you really are"
"And that is?"
"Pathetic" He laughed at my conclusion.
John's P.O.V
I could hear the doubt in her voice, her braveness was all an act, she was still afraid and man did it bring that throbbing sensation back. There were a few security guards in with us, Randy wouldn't leave without them, I haven't been able to get close to her, I'm thankful for the fans, there the reason me and her are now in this storyline together. I stood up. "Show me your not afraid" I challenged her. She gave me and odd look, but stood up anyway and tried to make herself look tough. I laughed at her attempts. I gave her a gentle push and she fell back onto the couch.
"Cena" She growled.
"Yes, my dear" I smirked at her, she was no match for me, I didn't even push her that hard. Luckily the security guards weren't really paying attention, I looked down at Mickie. Oh man…her skirt, she was near falling off the couch from where I pushed her and was trying to catch her balance, I would help her, but I had a perfect view of her tiny black knickers. I licked my dry lips at her, she looked up at me confused. "Lovely choice Mickie, I'm sure Randy appreciates you wearing those when coming to meet me, maybe you should wear them during our storyline" She starred at me even more confused, she looked down before her face showed realisation. She blushed, she frantically stood up and pushed her skirt down. Shame really, I was enjoying the view. "What colour are you planning on wearing tomorrow?" I knew I was getting to her.
She turned to walk out of the door. "None of your business" She sneered. I grabbed her arm and spun her around, wow, these security men were great, they must not know what they were even here for, I think they think they are protecting us from anyone walking in. I leaned in so that we were close together.
"It's entirely my business" I whispered into her. She jerked back as soon as I spoke those words. "Your going to have to get used to us being that close"
"I don't think I'll ever get used to the urge to vomit" She sneered at me, trying to create as much space between us as possible. "I bet your loving all this"
"What makes you think I want to…" I ran my finger down her side, she moved so her back was now against the wall. I closed the space between us, she looked at me straight in the eye to try and prove her braveness, I could see it was all an act, the truth was, all I could see was her vulnerability. "Kiss you" I breathed into her face. She wiggled out from against me, causing me to let out a low moan.
"We don't kiss" She threw the scripts at me obviously aiming for my head, but being the weak woman she is, missed. I picked up the script.
"Not yet, but soon my dear, soon, and maybe, just maybe, I'll suggest to Vince we do like Lita and Edge, a live sex scene" He wiggled his brows at me, my eyes widened.
"There is no way"
"Not much you can really do about it babe"
Becky's P.O.V
"You're wrong," I scowled.
"Rebecca, I am not wrong," Ted disagreed, "Tyson was the best Beyblader."
"No! Kai was!" I scolded, "He was badass. Tyson was just an idiot."
"Take it back!"
"It's not my fault you're delusional."
"Excuse me-" Ted opened his mouth to reply when he suddenly spotted someone ahead of us, "Codykins! Where have you been all day?"
"Well…"
I followed his gaze to see Cody walking towards us with his head hung over slightly. He lifted his head and smiled at us.
"Codykins!" Ted shrieked, "What have you done?"
I, however, found my lips stretch into a smile and I only managed to say "Cody."
There, in his nose, was a stud.
Oh god, I loved him.
"That's badass!" Ted said admiringly.
"Thanks," Cody grinned but his eyes were on me. He looked… nervous.
"I'm going to go and see if Mickie is back," Ted announced, "I can't wait to tell her about this!" He patted Cody on the head before skipping off.
We waited until he was gone before he took a step closer to me, "So…?"
I couldn't believe he had gotten his nose pierced. God, he looked even hotter than before. It definitely suited him. And I couldn't believe that he had done it! Was it because of what I had said earlier? If so, then…
I glanced around before gently grabbing his wrist – not his hand, in case someone was watching – "Come on."
"Where are we going?" He asked, I could hear the smile in his face.
I glanced back at him, a grin on my face, "My room."
Mickie's P.O.V
"See, I told you that wouldn't take long" I heard Vince's voice, Randy charged into the room and pulled me towards you, once again he starred darkly at John, he just threw his hands up.
"He didn't do anything did he?" He whispered into my ear, I leaned further into his chest and looked at John.
"No, lets go" Being around John literally made my skin crawl. I thought all this was over, he should be in jail, he shouldn't be allowed to be here.
"Goodbye Mickie" John gave me a smug look, I crunched up my face at him. Randy pulled me tighter into him. "Randy" His gripped tightened on me. "Did you pick out those black knickers?" My eyes widened, oh no. Randy turned his head to the side, he smiled which confused the hell out of me until I felt myself being shoved back onto the couch, I shook my head to try and shake the dizziness and looked up. Randy was being held back by the security men, oh now they were doing their job. John just stood there with his arms crossed starring at Randy with a look 'You can't touch me' grin on his face. "Oh look Randy, it's those black knickers again" I looked down, oh for fuck sake, I pulled my skirt down and stood up fast, ah head rush. Randy growled at John who just walked out casually with a little bounce to his steps. I placed my hand on Randy's arm to try and calm him down a little.
"He's gone" I whispered to him, he calmed a little, but he still starred angrily at the door.
"If you mess this storyline up Mr Orton, you can consider yourself unemployed" Vince told Randy sternly before following John out the door, Randy did not take that too well and just punched the wall, then cursed at his hand for the pain, tonight was going to be a long night.
What will happen in the first promo of John & Mickie?
Will Randy's protectiveness cause him to loose his job?
Thanks for all the reviews, keep them coming!
What do you want to see more of?
