Sleeping in the Fire (Randy Orton)

16. the more things change

I watched as Terri interviewed Ric Flair with Randy standing right next to him. Randy couldn't keep his eyes off of her, he even moved her hair from her neck for a brief moment. It made me want to cry. It's now October 13, 2003 and I haven't been here in a while. Lita let me stay with her for a while when she hurt her neck but she recently came back and I didn't want to just stay at her house alone. Even here I felt like an intruder. Randy's eyes met mine.

After him and Ric had to yell at Shawn Michaels, Randy made his way over to me. I looked away but he kept coming closer.

"Your ankle is better then."

"It's been a long time, Randy.  Of course it's healed. Don't you have some girls to go after?"

Randy chuckled quietly. "Hey I'm sorry to hear that you broke up with Christian. We were best friends! What happened to us?"

I sighed. All the dreams I have been having about him lately are swarming in my head. I looked up at him and that stupid smirk that won't leave his lips.

"There is no us Randy. There never was. Now leave me alone, please."

Randy frowned but just walked away. The friendship I held onto so close has ended and everything just is going downhill. I pulled out my phone to call someone I could trust.

I smiled when I heard his voice.

"Hey kiddo what's up?"

"Hey deadman. You think I can hang around you for a while?"

"Of course. You know I got your back." Undertaker replied.

Then I planned a time to stay at his house, just for a while. Another disappearance that nobody would notice. Especially Randy.
