Chapter 84: A Day of Play

Randy's POV

"This day has been absolutely perfect Randy. . ."

I let a small smirk appear on my face as I turned to face the woman on my left. A big smile was the dominating feature of her beautiful face as she sat next to me; her blue eyes watching the sun go down as it disappears behind the horizon. My eyes then move down to her left hand, where her engagement ring and silver wedding band stayed securely on her ring finger. I slowly move my hand on top of hers, instantly getting her attention as I brought her hand to my mouth so that I could kiss her knuckles.

"And why would you say that, my beautiful wife?" I ask as I look up into her eyes. She lets out a small chuckle before moving closer to me. I watch her intently as she crawled onto me, her legs now laid out on either side of my own as she straddles my lap.

"Simple, my dear husband," she tells me as she weaves our fingers together, her eyes quickly looking down at the wedding band on my left ring finger that matched her own, before looking back at me. "I'm spending the day with the man I love. Isn't it obvious?"

"You may want to take that statement back honey," I say with a short chuckle. "It's 'I'm spending my honeymoon with the man I love, not 'I'm spending the day with the man I love''."

"Oh yes . . . The honeymoon you planned singlehandedly, might I add," she tells me with a grin. "How did you do it, if you don't mind me asking?"

"Oh no, I can't tell you that. It's my closely guarded secret, Ms. Anaconda," I say with a chuckle as I pecked her lips. "You'll just have to wait until I'm finally ready to tell you."

"Fine, be mean," she tells me with a small pout on her face. "I guess I'll just deny you sex until you're ready to tell me."

"Oh no, you won't," I say with a smirk on my face as I loosely wrapped my arms around her waist. "Last night, we had some of the best sex in a long time 'Manda, and I'm not going to have you deny me something that I know I'm entitled to now that we're married."

"Really . . . You're going to play the 'entitled' card against me?" she asks me with a smirk as she crosses her arms over her chest, making her boobs look that much bigger that it was starting to inspire some naughty thoughts in my head. "You may come from a well-known wrestling lineage, but that still doesn't help with your 'entitled' excuse okay? Let's just make that one thing clear."

"Must you get all technical with me?" I ask with a shake of my head. "We're on our honeymoon baby. This is the time for us to enjoy each other's company, to enjoy ourselves."

"Oh yeah . . . Like when you 'enjoyed' yourself when you had to pull my garter off my leg with your teeth before the garter toss?"

"C'mon babe . . . I only trailed a few kisses along your inner thigh and that was it," I say in my defense. "You know you enjoyed it just as much as I did."

"I did, but I had to try to keep a straight face so that I wouldn't give away what you were doing to the rest of the guests." she tells me back with a grin.

"At least you got me when you smashed my face into a slice of wedding cake." I say back with a grin as I began to play around with strands of her long curly hair.

"And then you decided to kiss me with your cake-covered face," she tells me with a chuckle as she pecks my forehead. "That was fun . . ."

"And I think I know another thing we can do that's fun," I say with a smirk as I reach for the zipper that held her dress together. "C'mon baby. Don't you want a second round of what happened last night?"

"You make it sound so tempt-," she starts to say, but I cut her off with my lips before she has a chance to finish. I start to drag down the zipper, smirking when I notice that she wasn't wearing a bra underneath, when she pushes me away; a sly smile dotting her face. "Not out here Mr. People could be watching us and I don't want our business shared on the internet."

"Hmm . . . good call," I say with a smirk as I suddenly stand up. She instantly wraps her legs around my waist in response to my sudden movement while my hands go to securely hold her by her cute, little ass. I walk us back into our hotel room, closing the doors behind us with the back of my foot, before walking over to our bed. "Now my sweet, sexy wife, it's time for us to have ourselves a little fun."

~X~X~X~

"Damn your body looked so good back in 09 . . . Like a statue come to life . . ."

"I hope you're talking about me," I say with a small smirk on my face as I slowly opened my eyes. Amanda was in front of me, sitting against the headboard with her laptop opened across her lap doing one of her favorite pastimes: watching old wrestling videos on YouTube. "Please tell me you're talking about me. If not, I'll just go back to sleep, pondering who in the world you could be talking about, therefore putting myself in a bad mood. . . And we both know how I can be when I'm in a bad mood."

"Of course I'm talking about you baby . . ." she tells me with a reassuring smile on her face as she turns her laptop to me so that I could see the screen better. "Besides, who else had a killer body like yours back in 09 hmm?"

"I can't really think of others who had such a body like mine back then," I say with a smirk as I folded my arms underneath my head. "And I got to admit. I was really ripped that year."

"Yeah you were, but now you're . . . not as ripped," she tells me with a shake of her head. "Don't get me wrong, you are still as ripped and sexy as ever, just not as much as you were back in 09; and all because you wanted to put on a little more weight so that there was some more power behind your moves, as if you needed more power behind your moves, my fellow vampire."

"Okay . . . That wasn't the best reason to use . . ." I mumble with a shake of my head. "And to be honest, I don't really have a good excuse behind why I'm not as ripped as I used to be back in 09 and 10. At least I'm still ripped enough. You have to give me credit for that babe."

"Well yeah . . . You are still ripped enough," she says with a shrug as she turns back to her laptop. "To be honest, I do prefer the slightly more bulky version of yourself that you have going on right now. Back then, you looked like a twig. A well-built and sexy twig, but a twig nonetheless."

"Really?" I ask with a disbelieving look on my face as I finally sit up. "A twig?"

"Yes, a twig. A well-built and sexy twig." she says to help her case. "C'mon babe . . . I gave you that much."

"Honey, back in those years, my body was basically the epitome of physical perfection," I say with a smirk as I gestured to my bare torso. "Okay, so my body may not look the same as it did back five, six years ago, but even if it looks like it is now, my body deserves some respect. My body deserves more than just that 'twig' comment."

"I did say that you were like a statue that came to life back then," she says with a smirk as she closes her laptop and puts it on the dresser. "Doesn't that line count for something?"

"It only counts a little . . ." I tell her as I cross my arms over my chest. "You're still going to have to try a little better than that missy."

"What can I do to make up for the twig comment then?" she asks with a smirk as she practically jumps off the mattress and onto the ground.

"I'm not sure yet," I reluctantly admit as I shake my head. "I'll get back to you on that once I figure something out."

"Okay then . . . while you are doing that, I'm going to get ready to head out." she tells me with a chuckle as she walks over to her suitcase.

"Head out? Head out where?" I ask, her sudden proclamation instantly getting my attention. "Where are you planning to go?"

"I was planning to go take a look around the neighborhood. You know, like how a vampire should do it," she tells me with a smirk. "You're welcome to join me if you like."

"It does sound tempting . . ." I say as I bring a hand to my chin. "What time is it?"

"It's a little after seven in the morning," she tells me with a smirk as she strips off her nightgown, leaving herself only in her pair of red panties. Talk about a wake-up call . . . "I was planning to feed the girls their breakfast before I headed out."

"That sounds like a plan. You know what? I'm going to join you on your trip after all," I say with a strong nod of my head as I got out of bed. "I'll go ready the baby bottles."

"Thank you babe!" she tells me as she quickly pulls her jeans on before moving on to her bra. I step out the room and head over to the kitchen to see that neither Nate or Alanna were there, which means they're probably still asleep. I quickly prepare the bottles, and once I deemed them ready for the girls, I head back to the room to see that 'Manda had already made the bed. She was currently sitting on top of it with the twins on either side of her, both of them as wide awake as can be as Amanda began pulling funny faces at them.

"Ms. K.O. likes to pull funny faces at little, unsuspecting babies . . . I can't believe it," I say in mock shock as I hand her one of the bottles. "One of the meanest Divas to ever grace a WWE ring caught doing something so out of character . . . Who would have thought?"

"I could say the same for you Mr. Apex Predator," she tells me with a chuckle as she picks up Gabi. "You, one of the most diabolical wrestlers to ever grace the WWE's ring, well, when he wants to be, got a penchant for going all soft-hearted and fatherly when it comes to his little girls. I've seen what you look like when you play peekaboo with them Mr. Don't deny it."

"What can I say? I have a soft spot for my precious little girls . . ." I say with a smirk as I pick Dani up in my arms and start feeding her. "So, anything interesting happened while I was prepping the bottles?"

"Well, I got a text from Ted about a new vision he had a while ago," she says with a chuckle as Gabi starts reaching for her bottle as 'Manda brings it to her lips. "Layla's planning to retire at the end of July; and my sister plans to retire pretty soon as well, and when I say pretty soon, I mean pretty soon."

"Really?" I ask in shock as I noticed the saddened look that comes across her face. "Layla and Monica are planning to retire from the WWE? Like . . . seriously? They're both going to retire?"

"Yeah, and with them gone, I'll be the last Diva on the active roster to have ever won the Women's Championship. Talk about being a lone survivor," she says with a shrug. "Layla has talked about retiring for a long while now, so I expected it from her. I'm just shocked that Monica had plans to retire as well. This is so out of the blue, even for her."

"You okay?" I ask in concern. "You look a little sad. Are you okay with your sister's decision?"

"I'm not really sad, to be honest . . ." she tells me with a shake of her head. "My sister's decision just hit me so suddenly. I just never really expected it from her, that's all."

"I suggest you go call her so you can two talk about this," I say as I take the bottle out of Dani's mouth after she finished the whole drink. "Maybe if you found out her reasoning behind her decision, you'll feel better about her it and your mind will be put back at ease."

"You know what? I'll do just that. Here, you can finish up feeding Gabi," she says as she holds her out to me. I quickly finish up burping Dani and place her right next to me before taking Gabi and her bottle. I watch 'Manda as she grabs her phone off the dresser before coming back to me to give me a quick peck on the cheek. "Thanks baby."

"You're welcome 'Manda . . ." I say as I watch her leave the room. About a minute later, I hear her voice talk into the phone's receiver as she steps out of the house, leaving me to my own devices as I continued to feed Gabi. Once I finished feeding her and burping her, I returned her and Dani back to their crib before pushing it out the room and over to Alanna's, just as she was stepping out into the hallway. "Alanna, your sisters will be joining you in your room for a little while."

"Okay . . . Why?" she asks me sleepily as she lets out a small yawn.

"'Manda and I are going to explore the area for a little bit. We'll be back soon," I tell her as I push the crib into her room. "This should be a good test to see how good of a big sister you are. Don't fail me now little missy. I'm counting on you."

"You can count on me for sure Dad!" she tells me as she gives me a military salute. I shoot her a smirk in return before jogging off to Nate's room. I knock on his door a few times, but he never answers. So, I open his door and look inside to see him still asleep in bed; his bed sheet only covering his extremities as he continued to snooze the day away.

"Nate!" I call out to him as I step into the room. "Nate, 'Manda and I are going out for a bit, so you're in charge till we get back!"

"I hear you loud and clear big bro. You and 'Manda go have a nice time. Everything will be fine here . . ." he tell me with a wave of his arm as he kept his eyes closed.

"You sure?" I ask with a smirk as I crossed my arms.

"I'm sure . . ." he tells me as he finally sits up. "Now leave my room please. I have to put on my boxers."

"You sleep naked?" I ask him bluntly as I start backtracking out of his room.

"Practically every night," he tells me with a smirk as he crosses his arms. " Don't shoot me that look big bro! I bet you've slept in the buff a few times in your life, especially after you and Amanda do the naughty."

"Alright, fair enough . . ." I say with a shake of my head as I raise my hands in defeat. I close his door before jogging over to the open front entrance. 'Manda was slowly pacing back and forth, a small smirk displayed across her face as she continued her conversation.

"Yes Monica, I have given some thought to retiring as well . . . around when Dani and Gabi start preschool probably . . . Yes, I know that's in a couple more years . . . No, I'm not sticking around because Randy has his weird case of 'separation' issues . . . Do you really think he would get all crazy because we would be states apart if I decided to stay home in Missouri? Okay, maybe it is possible he'll develop some kind of anxiety disorder, but I draw the line at crazy."

"It's nice to know how Monica thinks of me when it comes to you and me being separated from each other for long periods of time," I say out loud, instantly getting Amanda's attention. "It hurts to know, but at least I know how she feels on the subject."

"I'll call you back later sis, and yes I will get you a souvenir before we have to fly back. Bye!" Amanda says into the receiver before ending the call. "Way to push into someone's conversation Ran!"

"It's a gift . . ." I say with a chuckle. "So, what did your sister have to say about retiring soon?"

"Well, for starters, she thought long and hard about her decision, and when it came down to it, she figured that it was finally time for her to leave the ring. Apparently, she was thinking about retiring for a long while; and her becoming pregnant pretty much put things into a new perspective for her."

"What did Wade have to say about it?" I ask as I lean against the doorframe. "I'm sure as the father of your sister's child, I'm sure he had to have some input."

"Well, he was shocked as well to hear that she wants to retire, but he plans to be supportive of her decision," Amanda tells me with a shrug. "Monica plans to hand her retirement papers in at the end of the week."

"Well, at least your sister had a nice tenure in the business . . ." I say for support as I walked over to her. "Not many female wrestlers can say that they've won six championships in their career, let alone the eight you have in your name."

"That's true . . . My sis did have a good run, and now that I think about it, if I retired now, I would be happy with what I've accomplished so far in my wrestling career," she says with a smirk as she walks over to me. "Of course, I can't retire now. I still have a couple good years left in me."

"That's the spirit baby . . ." I say as I pull her into a hug. "So, what's Monica's plan of action once she hands in her papers?"

"Well . . . She's not going to immediately return home to St. Louis, if that's what you're thinking," Amanda tells me as I inhale her scent. "Wade convinced her to at least travel around with him and the rest of the roster for a few more months. Once she gets about seven to eight months along, then she'll go back to St. Louis to make all the preparations for the baby."

"That's a good plan . . ." I comment as I let her go. "So, are we ready to go?"

"I just need to slip on my sneakers," 'Manda tells me with a smirk as she pecks my chin. "And you, you need to slip into a whole different outfit."

"Huh?" I ask questioningly as I looked down at myself. She was right. I did need to slip into something else, especially since I was dressed in a pair of sweatpants, and nothing else. "Yeah . . . You're right."

"I'll wait out here while you get changed." she says with a chuckle as she walks over to her shoes, which were conveniently by the door. I give her one quick peck to the forehead before jogging inside to change, instantly hoping that she didn't disappear into the woods without me.

Normal POV

"Alright babe," Randy called out as he closed the door behind him and practically jumped down the steps. "I'm ready to go!"

"Good!" Amanda called from her spot beside a palm tree as Randy jogged over to her. "Which direction should we start with first?"

"I think we should settle something first," the Viper said with a smirk on his face as he jogged over to her. "We need to settle the currently on hold issue of who's the faster one in this relationship: me or you."

"We have debated this issue in the past before," Amanda said with a thoughtful look on her face. "How do you want to finally settle this then?"

"I was thinking that we could see who can outrun the other," Randy said with a smirk. "I'll chase after you and then you chase after me. We'll time how long it takes for one to catch the other. Whoever has the longest time is the faster person."

"Fair enough . . ." said Amanda as she began to set the timer on her phone. "Should I chase you first, or do you want to chase me?"

"You chase me first, and don't you dare read my mind to see what my next moves are," Randy said with a scowl on his face as he pointed at her. "I want this to be an even playing field."

"Fair enough . . ." Amanda said as she hooked her phone into the belt of her pants. "Let's get this thing started."

"Alright then . . . Catch me if you can!" Randy exclaimed as he disappeared from view. Amanda only chuckled as she disappeared at the same speed he was going. She chased him away from the house and through the tropical environment until they reached a large valley that didn't have a house in sight. Randy was laughing as he ran, loving the feel of his legs going at his more natural speed than the one he usually used when he ran among humans. He was enjoying the freedom and liberty that being a vampire gave him so much that he never noticed Amanda coming up mere feet behind him. She jumped and latched herself onto his back, almost making him tip over and crash head first into the ground, her voice sounding practically melodic as she laughed in her fiancé's ear.

"I got you Mr. Viper," said Amanda as she checked the time on her phone. "I got you in four minutes and 53 seconds. Let's see if you can beat that."

"Four minutes and 53 seconds? I can totally beat that," Randy said with a smile on his face. "Prepare to lose sweetheart."

"We'll see about that handsome . . ." Amanda said with a challenging look on her face as she reset the timer. "Four minutes and 53 seconds is the time to beat . . . Come get me Snake Boy."

Amanda instantly broke out into a sprint, disappearing into a blur as she ran deeper into the valley. Randy watched her go, smiling with pride before remembering what he had to do. Setting his Viper-like glare in place, he broke into a sprint right after her. He ran to catch up to her, and when he was close enough, he reached out to her, only to come up with air. Amanda ended up turning an immediate left to avoid Randy's grasp.

"You made that turn way too quickly for it to be normal!" the Viper growled as he followed after her.

"Of course it wasn't normal! With my heightened senses, I can tell which direction you're coming from!" Amanda exclaimed back as the two jumped over a small creek with ease. "You could have done the same thing too if you had just paid attention more instead of just enjoying the freedom that being a vampire entails."

"It's like you read me like an open book!" Randy exclaimed back as he let out a small chuckle. He leapt for her like she did to him earlier, but she evaded his grasp before he could touch her. He quickly skidded to balance himself again before chasing after his beloved. Deciding to try a different tactic in order to stop her, he leapt far enough that he ended up landing ahead of his mate. Amanda skidded on her feet to slow herself down and quickly turned away from the awaiting Viper, narrowly avoiding Randy's clutches as he tried to catch her in a bear hug. "Damn! You are one wily Anaconda! You know that right?"

"It's a gift!" Amanda exclaimed as she looked at her phone, her smile getting even bigger when she looked at the time. "It has been six minutes and 22 seconds and counting since we started sweetheart . . . Looks like I bested your time Randy! I'm the faster one!"

"Shit!" Randy exclaimed as he tried to catch 'Manda one last time. He jumped for her, but she quickly moved out of the way, letting the Viper land feet first into the creek that they had conveniently circled around to.

"You lost, and now you're all wet," Amanda said as she clapped at the man that was ankle deep in muddy water. "I gotta say this though. You did put up a good effort, but I was just better today, plain and simple. That's another point to the Anaconda!"

"You had me beat . . . I admit it. I admit defeat, which is something I rarely do by the way," said Randy as he slowly walked out of the creek. "But it was fun to chase you around and all. You are quite the challenge."

"We should do this again some time," Amanda suggested with a nod of her head. "But we'll save that for another time. C'mon, we got some exploring to do Mr. Muddy Viper."

"Fine . . ." said the Viper as he jogged up to her. "But one of these days, I will have my rematch. This isn't over between us. Not one bit."
