Randy wrote that in his journal. Every day since he's been here he marks his calendar, dreading the day when he and John would go their separate ways. Everything that has happened with John he wrote down. Every smile, every tough and every kiss. Coach Austin wasn't on his back as much as he use to and he was still talking to Krystal about his problems. Today was Saturday and he couldn't be happier. Even though his team lost again but he was dating John now so he really didn't care. He laid on his bed writing all this in his journal when he heard the door open. He looked over to see John peek his head in and he smiled. "Hey John." He closed his book, slid it under his bed and pulled out a book without John noticing.

John came in and sat next to him on the bed. "Why are you in here all alone? Coach is about to start the drills and he told me to come get you."

Randy shrugged "I don't know why are you out there when you don't have to do drills?"

"I asked coach if I could do drills with you guys and he said yes." John looked over and took the book from Randy. "What are you reading anyway?"

Randy smiled and rested on his arm. "A book."

"Ha ha I mean what is it about?" John asked flipping through the pages.

"I don't know I just started reading it." Randy said getting up from the bed.

"Then how come you're on page 354 if you just started." John asked looking back at him.

"Um...Okay I didn't really read it. In fact I have no idea what it is. I just found it under the bed yesterday. He pulled on a tank-top and grabbed his shoes. "You can read if you want to." Randy said putting on his shoes.

John shook his head. "No, that's okay I'm not much of a reader."

Randy got up. "Okay I'm ready to get my ass kicked."

John smiled up at him. "Come on it won't be that bad."

Randy smiled, walked over to John and patted him on the shoulder. "You see John this is your first time so of course you think like that but trust me when I say you won't be like this when Coach Austin is done with you." He kissed him on the cheek. "Believe me, now let's go."

John swallowed but shrugged it off. He followed Randy out the cabin and out to the field with the others.

Halfway during drills John was worn out and as the other did push up after push up John laid on the ground trying to catch his breath.

"Cena!" Coach Austin yelled. "What are you doing?" He said walking over to him.

"Trying...to catch my...breath." John said sitting up on his knees.

Coach Austin smiled "Well maybe next time you think twice before asking to do drills with me. Now everyone start over and this time we're going to fifty and we're not going to stop until John hit's fifty. That means if you do fifty pushups you don't stop. You keep going until John hits that fifty mark." Everyone groaned "On my whistle!" He blew and they were off.

Fifty grueling pushups later John fell to the ground. His arms were killing him and all he wanted to do was lie there on the ground.

Coach Austin blew his whistle again. "Go eat be back in an hour!" He yelled and walked off.

The others ran off and Randy sat next to John who was still lying face down. "Not that easy huh."

John only groaned in respond making Randy laugh. "Don't worry we're just getting warmed up. After the break you're going to feel a million times worse."

John glared at Randy. "Why do I get the feeling that you're enjoying this a little too much?"

Randy shrugged "I don't know where you would get that idea from." He laid on his back and looked over at John. "Why did you do this anyway when your team won?"

"I wanted to be with you." John said shifting slightly onto his side.

"That's sweet but next time you don't have to do it. I'll be fine." Randy said.

John sighed "Randy do you really like being here?"

Randy nodded "Yeah why do you ask?"

"Because it doesn't seem like you really trying out there. It doesn't seem like you're giving your all. Something is holding you back Randy and I'm curious to know what it is." John said.

Randy sat up "Why does everyone think I'm holding back?"

"Because you are." John said slowly sitting up. "Every game I play I give it my all and at the end of the day weather I won or lose I know I gave it my all."

"That's easy for you to say when you've never lost a game." Randy looked down "I've never even won one. You're right I totally suck at this."

"Hold on I didn't say that you sucked. I just said to give it your all next time and I know you can do it Randy because I have faith in you." John nudged him with his shoulder. "Okay?"

Randy nodded "Okay but you don't have to stay here. I've been here four times now so I'm pretty use to it. I won't be mad or disappointed if you do."

"But I will if I give up now." John slowly got up. "I can do this."

Randy got up and smiled "Are you sure?"

John nodded furiously "Yeah I got this."

Thirty minutes later

Randy and a few other guys carried John back to the cabin and laid him on the bed. They left but Randy stayed with him. "Are you okay?"

John groaned "I think I pulled a muscle."

Randy laughed. "I told you that you didn't have to stay but nooo you wanted to be all brave and now look what happened."

John looked up at Randy. "I almost had it I was so close to the top of that hill."

Randy closed his eyes. "John you were nowhere near the top of that hill."

John chuckled then groaned. "Don't make me laugh."

Randy smiled "I have to go finish but I'll come right back when I'm done." He kissed John and got up. "Hang in there." He said and he was gone.

John stayed in that same position and when the door was open again and in walked Cody.

Cody walked up to him and hit him on the back. "Hey dude wake up."

John let out a loud groan. "Don't do that I'm not sleep." He shouted out through gritted teeth.

Cody chuckled "What the hell happened to you?"

"I thought it would be fun to do drills with Coach Austin." John said turning away from Cody.

"Dude why that man is a monster." Cody said "I've only see him once for drills and I don't want to go back. That's why I'm busting my back to keep from going back."

"Well it wasn't that bad." John said.

"Yeah then why are you lying on the bed now?" Cody asked smiling.

John groaned "Get out." He mumbled.

Cody chuckled "Alright man I'll let you rest but tomorrow I'm going to feel really bad when you have to practice with him all week then face another game Friday. I hope this doesn't affect your winning streak." He walked off

"I really do hate you right now Rhodes!" John yelled after him.

"I know!" Cody yelled back before letting the door close behind him.

John stayed in that position just staring at the door. Only because every time he moved it sent pain throughout his whole body. So he closed his eyes and soon drifted off to sleep.

When he was finish with his drills Randy went to his cabin in search for John. When he opened the door John was lying on top of his covers asleep. He walked up to him and thought about undressing but thought it might cause him to much pain so he grabbed a extra blanket and covered him up. "God you're crazy." He kissed him on the head and left him to his sleep.
