To Be Torn Between Two

Chapter 18: All My Fault

"Who is it from?" Layla asked, curiosity getting the best of her. John frowned down at his phone needing to blink a couple of times, to make sure he was seeing things correctly. This was unexpected.

"It's from Mickie...Mickie James" John answered, the frown still evident up on his face.

"Oh!" Kelly exclaimed, getting somewhat excited. Mickie was a close friend of hers as well and she was wondering what she had messaged to John. "What did she say?"

"She said that she signed with WWE again and that she's returning to the ring soon" John relayed as Kelly and Layla both rolled their eyes at the Cenation Leader.

"She only just texted you that? I've known that for weeks" Layla admitted, feeling sort of let down.

"Yeah she texted me, like, ages ago" Kelly added. Cody wore this conceited grin on his face and Kelly had no idea what was up with him. "What's wrong with you?"

"I just find it funny that Mickie literally messaged everyone but Randy" Cody chuckled.

"Hey!" The Viper yelled at him, clearly not impressed that Mickie hadn't messaged him and that everyone was using him as the punch line of their jokes.

"Wait, she messaged you to?" Layla asked, curiosity getting the best of her once again. "I guess it sucks to be Randy then." Randy, feeling annoyed that everyone was 'making fun' of him, stormed off in a huff towards the hospital. Everyone exchanged glances, some shocked, some worried, but mostly everyone wore a confused expression upon their faces.

"What the hell is wrong with him?" John asked, completely taken aback by the situation. Kelly stayed silent. She had an idea why Randy was so annoyed. Can you imagine being in love with a girl, who was dating one of your closest friends? Yeah, it probably wasn't exactly easy to see John and Kelly together for him, especially after all the trouble he went through just to break up with Eve.

"Maybe it was something I said?" Layla suggested a reason as to why Randy had stormed off angrily.

"No, the truth is guys, that he's hurting" Cody began. "I know I shouldn't be telling you this but it's going to take some time for him to adjust. And when I say adjust I mean he's going to need to get used to John and Kelly being all lovey dovey with each other." A silence fell amongst them. Kelly was sure she was blushing madly whilst John ran a hand through his short hair, pretending that he didn't here the comment that Cody had just made.

"Cody, you are the pinnacle of awkwardness" Layla announced, finally breaking the silence.

As Randy stormed off towards the hospital, he caught sight of Eve sitting on a bench outside of the hospital. Great, just great he thought angrily. He was so sick of everything. He had left Eve for Kelly because that was what she wanted. When he finally did break up with the brunette, Kelly had already started to date John whilst Eve had gone back to Punk.

Getting closer to the brunette Diva, he realized that she was crying. His heart stopped. He didn't like Punk. In fact, he hated the guy with a passion but something didn't feel right. Maybe something happened? But Punk was stable, only thirty minutes ago! Oh shit...Randy's thoughts were racing.

"Eve..." Randy knelt down in front of her. "Eve, is everything ok?" Randy asked, his brow furrowing in concern. "Is Phil ok?"

"Phil's not going to make it..." Eve cried. Randy, looked up at her not knowing what to do. Everything seemed to slow down during that instant. What? Randy asked himself.

"What?" he asked aloud this time. "But..." Randy began, completely in shock. "But he was stable half an hour ago? What do you mean he's not going to make it?" The Viper found himself, yelling at her in complete and utter shock. Randy might have hated Punk with a passion due to some incidences in the past but there was no way on earth he wanted the poor guy to die. He sat down next to the brunette, who was just an emotional wreck.
