Fic: All I've Ever Wanted
Author: And
Rating: PG-13

Pairings: Lita/Randy, Randy/Jessie (OC), John Cena, Edge, Jeff Hardy, Maria. Lots more appearing.
Disclaimer: I know nothing apart from the OC's. Anything else belongs to Vince and the WWE.
Spoilers: None really. Set in late 2006 before Lita left the WWE.
Summary: He couldn't ask her but lucky for him, he didn't have to. Answer to my own challenge, where Randy is married and his wife can't have kids.
Notes: Dedicated to Kori because she inspired me to actually write the damn thing as well as posting the challenge. Flashbacks are in italics. I started this story in August 2006. Slightly rewriting. Ignoring the real life triangle. In fact pretending that Lita and Matt never dated at all. Anything else and I'll let you know.

Chapter 1

Lita sighed heavily as she brushed her long red hair. She was sat in the bed in her single hotel room, about to snuggle down into the covers when her phone beeped, indicating she had a text message. She reached over to the night stand and picked it up. After she flipped it open, she found that she had a text message was from one of her best friends, Randy Orton. The message read 'Can I see you?' Lita smiled before replying, 'Sure.' She got out of the bed and replaced the covers. She opened the suitcase that she hadn't bothered to unpack in search of a shirt to put over her skimpy green tank top that matched the boy shorts she was wearing. She settled on a plain black one and slipped it on just as there was a knock at the door.

She opened the door and stepped back, allowing the visiting superstar to enter. "Hey you."

"Hey, yourself," Randy greeted as he stepped inside. "How are you?" He was dressed in a plain black tee shirt and dark blue jeans.

Lita shrugged as she closed the door, "I'm good, I guess. Apart from being a little tired. So Mr Orton, to what do I owe this unexpected pleasure?"

Randy sat down on the bed and smirked at her, "I have some good news."

Lita joined him on the bed, "And that would be? Come on Randy, don't keep me in suspense."

"One of Jessie's friends has agreed to be a surrogate for us."

"Really? That's awesome news. When did that happen?" She turned slightly and hugged him briefly.

"Just now, Jess called me like ten minutes ago. I tried to get hold of Cena but he isn't answering his cell. Which means he's either wasted or he got lucky at the bar earlier."

"Or knowing John? Probably both," Lita put in.

Randy laughed, "Wouldn't put it passed him. Anyways, enough about him. Did I mention we got a surrogate?"

Lita pretending to think for a moment before she winked at him, "You might have mentioned that."

"You're not funny, you know?"

"Damn it, why didn't you tell me that before I quit my day job?"

Randy frowned, "I wish you wouldn't joke about that. I'm gonna miss you so much."

Lita rolled her eyes, "I'm gonna miss you too but after seven years I just want to try something new."

"I know." He shot her a puppy dog look.

She laughed, "The puppy dog look is so not going to wash with me, mister."

He shrugged at that, "It was worth a shot."

"So who is this surrogate?" Lita asked, changing the subject.

"I'm not entirely sure, her name is Nessie." Randy said.

The redhead made a face, "Jessie and Nessie? You've got to be kidding me?"

"No, her name is Vanessa. Only Jess calls her Nessie. I think it's their thing, you know?"

"Gotta ya. So when does the whole surrogate thing get started?"

"She's getting tested tomorrow. Jessica is going with her, just to make sure everything's okay."

"Wow, that soon, huh?"

"Yeah but it's not really that soon, it's been three months since the doctor told us Jess couldn't have children."

"Really? I remember it like it was yesterday. I don't think I've ever seen you looking so sad…"

Lita entered the bar, glancing around for her friend. It didn't take her long to find him. He was ordering another drink from the bartender.

"Don't you think you'd have enough?"

"Nope," Randy answered simply. "Right now, I could drink this bar dry," he motioned around wildly with his arms, "And it still wouldn't be enough."

"Randy, talk to me, what's happened?"

"Jessie's just called. She got her test results back. She can't have children."

"Oh Randy, I'm so sorry. Is there anything I can do?"

"Nope, I'd appreciate it if you'd just leave me alone."

"Randy, I don't think you should be alone right now."

"I don't really care what you thing right now, Lita. And besides," He held up his drink, "I'm not alone. I have my little friend here."

"I admit, not one of my best days."

"You can say that again, you were a real jerk towards me."

"I was upset," Randy said. "Not really an excuse for being an ass to you. I know you were only trying to help me."

Lita took hold of his hand and squeezed it tightly, "I know but promise me, if you ever feel like that again you'll come to me first? I don't care if I'm with the WWE or not, I'm always there for you. You got that?"

"I got it and I promise it won't happen again. Thanks, Li. You're the best."

"Well, you know, someone's got to be." Lita replied, finally releasing his hand.

Randy laughed. "I best be getting back to my room. I said I'd call Jess back in a few."

"Tell your wife I said hi," Lita informed him.

The third generation superstar nodded, "Will do. We're still on for breakfast tomorrow, right?"

"Of course … Unless you have trouble dragging your ass out of bed again."

"I'll be there. Can't guarantee the same about Cena though." He kissed her forehead before he got up from the bed, "I'll see you tomorrow, Li."

"Goodnight, Randy."

The next morning, Lita was awake bright and early. She'd taken a quick shower before heading down to the hotel restaurant to meet Randy and John. When she arrived there was no sign of either of her friends so she decided to get herself a cup of coffee while she was waiting. Once that was done, she took a seat at one of the many tables. It wasn't long before a happy looking Randy Orton made an appearance.

"Good morning," he said cheerfully as he sat down opposite her.

"Okay, who are you and what have you done to Orton?" Lita replied with a smile.

"Hey!" Randy said, doing his best to look offended. "I'm not that bad, am I?"

"Well, if it wasn't for the fact that you're so tall, I swear, usually, we'd have Snow White in here thinking you were one of her seven dwarfs. You know the one … Grumpy."

"Come on Li, I'm not that bad. Cena is worse than me. Speaking of Cena, here he comes and he looks like shit."

Lita bit back a laugh, "Don't let him hear you say that."

Within seconds, John had arrived at their table, whipping her coffee cup out of her grasp and downing the contents in one before Lita could even think about protesting. "John, I was drinking that."

"I'll get you another one, woman. Relax."

Lita rolled her eyes, "That's not the point, John."

A smirk appeared on John's face indicating his mind had just gone into the gutter, "Well, you know, if I stick my tongue in your mouth real quick, you might be able to taste the coffee. How does that sound, Li? You up for it?"

She made a face, "Eww! You're so gross sometimes."

John laughed, "It was worth a shot. I'm gonna get you a refill and then we'll think about ordering something to eat because I'm starved. You want anything, dude?"

"Nah, I'm good, man." Randy shook his head, "I'll wait until we order."

John shrugged, "Whatever." He walked over to the other side of the restaurant only to return a few moments later. "Can you lend me twenty bucks? I must have left my money in my room."

Hazel eyes looked at him in disbelief, "So not only do you steal my coffee, you now what me to lend you money to pay for a replacement?"

"Pretty much," John admitted.

"You're unbelievable, Cena. Do you know that?"

"If only you'd give me the chance to prove that to you, baby but you keep turning me down," John joked.

"I think I just threw up a little in my mouth," Randy put in.

"Shut up, Orton." He held out his hand for the cash.

Lita pulled a twenty dollar bill out of her pant pocket, "Here ya go, don't spend it all at once."

He winked at her, "I'll be back."

"Take your time," Randy replied and John flipped him off as he walked away.

Thirty minutes later and they were just about finished with their breakfasts. They hadn't talked much since there food had arrived as neither John or Randy were big talkers when there was something edible in front of them.

"So," Lita started, "Have you had chance to tell John your big news yet?"

Randy took a sip of his Minute Maid orange, "Not yet. I tried him a couple of times after I left your hotel room last night but keep getting his voicemail."

"You have news? And it's big? Tell me!" John replied.

"Jessie's friend agreed to be our surrogate," Randy said.

"Wow, that's huge. Is she hot?"

Lita rolled her eyes, "Is that all you think about?"

"I'm being serious. This woman is going to be the kid's natural mother and Orton going to be the father. At least one of them has to have looks."

"Fuck off, Cena." Randy replied.

"I'm just saying."

"Okay … moving on." Lita decided to play peacemaker. "What time are Jess and Vanessa going to the doctors?"

"I'm not sure. Jessie didn't know last night. I tried to call this morning but I got our machine." Randy explained.

"Maybe they left already?"

Randy shrugged, "I'll call again when I get back to my room."

"So, when's the money changing hands?" John asked, bluntly.

The redhead's attention went straight to Cena, "What money?"

"You don't know about the quarter of a million surrogate search?"

Lita almost choked on her orange juice, "How much?"

"Quarter of a million," Randy said, sheepishly avoiding eye contact with the redhead.

"I don't know much, if anything about the whole surrogacy thing but I'm sure you shouldn't been handing over that amount of cash. Even to a friend."

"That's what I said," John admitted.

"And as I told Cena, the money isn't for the baby. It's for a house so Vanessa can move near us. It's not like we're giving her the money exactly. The house will be in Jessica's name."

"Just be careful okay? I know how much you want this."

He flashed her a bright smile, "Trust me, I got this cover."
