Eve Torres was currently camped out in her room with Nutella and a liter of MTN dew in arms reach. It was the day after the big homecoming game and her anxiety level was at its peak. Half an hour beforehand she had talked to Mike over the phone, he was upset to say the least. It was now very clear to her that the man who was known for his swagger and hard outer shell was vulnerable whenever Cody Rhodes was involved.

It was weird for "The great one" to feel insecure about anything, especially about women but with Eve it was a different story. He had opened his heart to her unlike what he's ever done before. Mike was new to the relationship thing and that included the fights.

A knock approached the woman's door which caused Eve to look up from the "who wore it best" section in People Magazine to the wooden door in front of her. "Come in." She called out, it was hard for her to adjust from the comfortable position that she was originally in.

The dark haired man that stood behind the door slowly came in. His eyes met with his exes and a flood of shock ran over her, clearly she was caught off guard. Eve examined Cody's expression and structure, she noticed he had tried to form a smile to break through the immediate awkwardness.

"Hey…ooh Nutella and a pool of MTN. dew? I know you and that's not a good sign. What's wrong?"

"Please spare me. Do you mind closing the door on your way out?"

"I'm not done yet and you need to work on your social skills. I came to talk to you."

Cody had begun to get a little too comfortable as he sat down on her bed. The brunette began to stiffen up as he grew closer – they both were well aware of the effect he had on her.

"Me first…" Eve finally began to break through his trance and build up the nerve to speak. "Why would you publicly embarrass me like that?"

"What do you mean?"

"Again, spare me. Cody you do know."

"All I was trying to do was celebrate in the moment with my girl."

"I'm not your girl! Okay, I'm not! And you know that wasn't your motive. You knew that if I took that damn ball it would get under Mike's skin and you'd get your foot in the door or if I didn't I'd look like a complete bitch who broke poor Cody Rhodes fragile heart."

A soft smirk broke through Cody's smile. He placed his hand on her thigh as he spoke a set of words. "You always knew me so well."
Eve was quick to push his hand away from her in disgust. The woman stood on her two feet and began to make some distance between them, which Cody quickly closed up.

"Come on Eve, look I know I put you in a bad spot but I just want my girlfriend back. I miss you like crazy."

A sigh of disgust came from her lips as she traveled around the room to put things back into shelves. Although her steps were at high speed Cody trailed close behind.

"Do you really expect me to believe that this "Mike thing" will last?"

"Yes actually, I do. Also it's not a "thing" it's a relationship."

"No Eve, what we had was a relationship. What you two have is him getting bored of sleeping with everything in sight so for now he's on you."

"It's not! Now you get the hell out!"

"Eve, what's happened to you? Us!"

"Well let's see. One morning in March I woke up in bed alone and decided to cut out anything or anybody that wasn't worth my time. And you are certainly not worth a second of my time."

The atmosphere grew even more dramatic. Cody's paralyzing stare stayed on the woman as tears started to fill her eyes.

"Eve, you don't mean that…you love me."

"Loved! I loved you and then you left me one morning with no explanation or goodbye. Now you're worthless to me… you're nothing… I hate you."

Cody's expression dropped completely at her final words. You could tell by his expression that his heart had just broken in half. The hands he had place on her arms fell, as well did his head. The man stared blankly at the ground while trying to comprehend her words.

The room was now quiet for a long time, the only sound that came from it was the sniffles that Eve desperately tried to hold in. Cody's body felt so stiff that he could barely move. When he felt feeling in his feet again he began to make his way towards the door. As Cody stood to speak half way out the door she began to speak through the tears that were now flooding.

"The only thing you did right was freeing me… it led to me right into the man I loves arms, Mike."

With full rage the man slammed the door heavily and stormed out of the apartment leaving Eve to cry it out.

Barbie Blanks apartment had reached a whole 'other level of awkwardness this Sunday evening; it layered from Cody Rhode's abrupt outbreak and storm out to Maryse Ouellet's uncomfortable presence.

Both of the blondes sat on the pristine couch in an equal silence, the only sound was the crinkle from the pages turning. Barbie annually flipped through the magazine and her dis-enjoyment was now so vocal that you could read it all over her facial expression. It was clear that Barbie had an agenda that she needed to get to and that Maryse was holding her from it.

Maryse didn't want to be there at all either but the woman was craving some attention she wanted it to be well understood how upsetting the events of yesterday's game was to her.

The French Canadian had been shuffling ideas through her head all afternoon on how she didn't win homecoming queen and she had a couple reasonable options. Reason number one, it was rigged by all the band geeks that had been pining after Barbie all year. Reason number two, all the people who were planning on voting for her forgot the final date of voting. Reason number three was pretty extravagant, somehow the people carrying the boxes tripped and all the Maryse votes flew out and landed on the streets somewhere. Eventually Maryse snapped out of her make believe fantasies to come across the real reason she didn't win, everyone preferred Barbie.

"Did you cash the big check in for yourself yet?

Barbie's eyes slimmed her way but she shook it off and responded, "Well I did cash it in but not for myself, it was written out to the charity."

"Oh excuse me, you can't really blame me though. You are a liar and cheater so why would I believe anything else about this?"

Suddenly the claws were getting released, the all American girl slammed the magazine down in her lap and shifted her whole body to turn towards her friend. "Excuse me? I'm a liar and cheater?"

"Well yes, to me at least. You take everything from me or you to take part in it."

"Would you mind catching me up to speed a little because I'm not sure what you're talking about… are you this delusional?"

"I'm not but I'll give you a brief synopsis. Freshman year we came to this school together and you already claimed your rightful throne in high school so I assumed that you'd let me take the reign here at Covington but no you just had to sleep and flirt with everyone that came your way-"

"Are you really one to criticize for sleeping with people? Your partners are countless."

"Let me finish! Not only do you take this school from me but you took a man from me, Mike!" Barbie was about to cut in and explain her confusion because never once was Barbie acquainted on that level with Mike but Maryse continued on in an even louder tone, she refused to let her interrupt. "You befriended that Eve girl and helped her steal Mike from me. Now this one small thing I want and you can't even give me that! All I wanted to feel like I meant something or was a part of something. I wanted that stupid sash and you couldn't even give me that! So it's not enough that Eve has Mike and you have the keys to the kingdom while I'm pushed to the side again."

Barbie was baffled by her best friend's words. She was used to Maryse being some sort of a drama queen but this was ridiculous. It wasn't like she rigged it. Before the woman could even respond a man walked into her opened front door. Dolph Ziggler stood there with an uncomfortable dorky grin.

"Hey, can we talk…"

"And you even have this guy after you! Like I said, you get and have everything..." Maryse stood from her seat and stormed out of the apartment, pushing aggressively past Dolph.

A heavy sigh came from Barbie's lips as she looked down at the ground. Her palm met her face as she shook her head in frustration. The enviornment was now even more tense and Dolph didn't quite know how to react.

"Um, did I come at a bad time or something?"

"Well…yes maybe… but it's just Maryse being Maryse. I'm glad you're here…"

Dolph observed the blondes stance and noticed that she hadn't moved. Her head was still placed in her hand and it then became clear to him that the speech he prepared here would've been inappropriate. Neither of them spoke for a minute but soon enough Barbie felt an arm wrap around her. When her eyes looked up she saw Dolph hugging onto her in comfort and a very faint smile came across her lips. The woman put her head in his chest while his arms were wrapped around her. They stayed like that for a long time.

Dolph never imagined that this would turn out like this. He spent hours out of his day trying to build up the nerve to come here and talk to her about her feelings but in a lot of ways he preferred this. Even if her reaction was everything he'd ever wanted and she jumped in his arms it was more of a relief to him to know that he was comforting the woman he loved.

Randy Orton always found comfort in his dorm room. Something about blasting old hit songs and throwing a basketball up in the air continuously gave him some sort of relief. It was a cold Sunday afternoon and the heavy rapid rain that appeared outside his window amplified his current mood.

The man's blue eyes were blood shot and his heart rate was sped up tremendously. His whole body was tender and at times he felt as if he could feel all the nerves rushing in his hands. Randy was beginning to get paranoid, a little too paranoid.

A knock approached the tatted man's door which caused him to tremble. Randy looked downed at the packets of cocaine that were spread out across his bed; fear took over which caused him to eagerly run over and cover it with the closest thing in sight – which happened to be a cooking pot. Randy wasn't aware how suspicious an upside down silver pot looked at that spot, in fact he thought he was being kind of clever.

In came one half of the Bella bunch, Brie Bella. A fragile smile was across her glossed lips as she peaked inside the room. The Italian had no idea what she was about to get herself into, what she imagined was going to be an awkward conversation ended up being a Covington styled convention.

"Hey Randy, I need to talk to you."

All he could stand to do was bat his eyes a half a dozen times and wait for her to continue.

"I don't really know what the issue is between us but I'm getting tired of it. Ever since Nikki appeared we've never been the same. Did I do something? Did I make you uncomfortable? Just tell me…I'm stuck."

The expression that Brie held was devastating. Her eyes were as eager as her words, it was very clear that she missed him – she wanted him. The look plastered on her friends face was completely different. All Randy could try and do was comprehend what she said and find appropriate words to respond with but for some reason he was unable to hold up a conversation; he was fidgety, anxious, and unable to hold up a conversation.

The few words that came from his mouth were stuttered which only made him freak out more. It was becoming very clear that he had done a little too much. His body began to shake and it was then that Brie really took into consideration his blood shot eyes and dilated pupils. The brunette placed a hand on the man's arm and felt shaking, it was her who was starting to freak out.

Brianna examined the bed behind him and saw the kitchen pot and lifted up to see a little over half a dozen plastic bags and her whole life flashed before her eyes. That was not what she was expecting to see in Randy Orton's room. Brie took to notice the amount in each of the baggies and then the one empty bag and noticed an extravagant difference.

The woman grabbed the cellphone that was placed in her back pocket and called who was believed to be Randy's emergency contact – Dolph Ziggler.

Took me a little longer to update this story - my apologies.

It took more time than usual to get five reviews and it's been a pretty bust time for me. I have a question for you; what's your favorite storyline going on right now? Is it the Mike/Eve/Cody/Maryse fiasco or the Randy's drug issue? Maybe it's AJ and Phils hooking up or Maria's stalker and John's source of comfort...Maybe it's even Dolph and Barbie's on and off occurring relationship and how two people from different worlds collide?

5+ Reviews please! Merry Christmas!
