As many of you know, I have a massive love for Mike/Eve, and that they're my OTP, with my first Mike/Eve multi-chapter story coming to an end, I'm started a new one! Thank you Ronnie for helping me get started on this! Enough chitchat from me, though! Let's get to the story! – Melly.
Chapter 1
Eve Torres paced back and forth in front of her boyfriend of two and half years, speechless. She had no idea what to say, or how to reply to the news she just heard. "What do you mean you've been cheating on me for the last four months?" She was finally able to mumble. "After two and a half years, I thought you and I had something," she added.
"We did have something," Ted Dibiase jr replied drily, his tone giving off the impression that he could careless that the love of his life was standing here in front of him heart broken, but maybe the cold truth was that he never cared for her at all.
"Don't you care, Ted?" Eve asked in a low whisper, the hurt was clear in her voice.
It didn't go unnoticed by Ted of course, but he didn't show any compassion towards the beautiful brunette, either. "It's been going on for a while now, Eve." Ted stated matter-of-factly. "What else do you want me to say?" The millionaire asked her.
"How about I'm sorry?" Eve asked, tears still rolling down her cheeks. "I loved you, I gave you everything I had and more." She said quietly.
"Why say I'm sorry if it's' a lie?" He asked icily. "You're too clingy for my liking. I don't want to do this anymore. You're too needy."
"Needy?!" Eve practically screamed. "I'm an extremely independent woman! I didn't know that me wanting to spend time with my boyfriend was considered clingy!" She snapped.
"God, do you hear yourself Eve?" He questioned. "I don't want you anymore. Just get over it."
"Who is it?" Eve demanded.
"What?"
"Who are fucking are you fucking behind my back?" She asked in a much colder tone.
"I'm not fucking anyone, but I'm dating with Maryse." He replied.
Eve gasped. "That French supermodel from Maxim? You've been sleeping with that whore behind my back this entire time? I can't believe you!" The Denver native clenched her fists, before grabbing a portrait of her and Ted and hurling it at him. The millionaire ducked just in the nick of time.
"What the hell is your problem you stupid bitch?! Can't you just accept the fact that we're over?" Ted just wanted to be up and done with it. The things he and Eve both wanted were now clearly on opposite sides of the spectrum.
"My problem is that you're standing here in front of me like a total jackass!" Eve snapped back. "I loved you, Ted! Damn it! I loved you with everything I had! I gave everything I had to give you, and it wasn't enough!"
"It never was," he said coldly. "Now get the fuck out of my hotel room," he demanded, pointing to the door as he threw her bag of things that he had already packed for her at the door.
"I'll gladly leave," Eve replied, picking up her bag as she left, and walked out, making sure to slam the door behind her.
Eve stood in the hallway for a moment, realizing that she had nowhere to go. She sighed; raking a hand threw her hair. She then remembered Mike "The Miz" Mizanin was down the hall from where she and Ted stayed.
The Denver and Cleveland were best friends, and always traveled together, so she knew that Mike would have no problem if she were to crash with him. She went to his room, and knocked on his door. She knew that he would be sleeping, so she hoped that he wouldn't mind her coming to him this late at night.
Hearing the knocking on his door, Mike grumbled, staring at the alarm and seeing that it was 1am. "Look Alicia, I already told you that Kofi went to sleep already, could you please stop knocking already?!" Instead, the knocking continued and Mike flipped his alarm clock over and swarmed to the door, highly irate. That mood nearly did a complete 360 when he saw who was at the door. "Eve, what's wrong?" He asked, worried that his friend was shivering and looked like she was going to burst into tears.
"Ted told me that he's been cheating on me for the last four months," she managed to choke out as tears soaked her face. "I love him so much, and he's been treating me as if I'm nothing," she whispered, her face was a mess now as makeup ran down her cheeks along with the tears, but truth be told, Mike still thought that the Denver native still looked so beautiful.
Mike stood there in shock for a moment, and then he took Eve into his arms; he really didn't know what to say right now to make his best friend feel better, so he just held her instead. "Shhh," he soothed. "Ted is nothing but an idiot, and I will be more than happy to kick his ass for you. No questions asked," he replied.
Eve couldn't help but to smile a little bit. "I don't need you to beat him up, Mikey. We both know that I could do it myself," she smiled a little. "But he's not worth it to be honest." She added.
He brushed her hair gently as a smirk grew on his face. "Besides, I know someone who could wipe his entire bank account clean," he said in her ear, but not worried one bit about that money clown. All that mattered right now was taking care of Eve and making sure that she was alright. This wasn't one of the first nights that this had happened, and just like what followed all those other times, he knew was sure to follow these times. He tilted her head, looking deep into her beautiful brown eyes.
Eve bit her lower lip, she knew better than to look into his eyes, they were such a perfect shade of blue, that they took her breath away every single time. She looked away, clearing her throat. "Can I please stay with you?" She whispered.
"Of course you can stay with me tonight, Eve. You know you don't have to ask. However…Kofi is rooming with me tonight instead of Alicia, so…that means you and I will have to share a bed…if you're okay with that," he said nervously as he rubbed the back of his neck, and Eve stepped inside of the hotel room, Mike closed the door softly, making sure not to wake his roommate.
"I'll take that as a yes," he nervously laughed as Eve took notice. "You're not nervous are you? I mean, we've done you know what before...I don't want to make you feel awkward just by being here," she said, but Mike completely flipped everything. "No of course I'm okay with it," he assured her. "I'm awesome remember?"
Eve chuckled as she shook her head. "Of course I remember. You're the best friend ever," she retorted before heading into the hotel bathroom to change, leaving the Awesome One to wander in his thoughts.
The two had been friends for close to five years, and meeting each other was the best thing that could ever happen for both of them. It was of fate brought the two together, and both of them were so grateful for the other.
Ever since the two had met, Mike always thought that Eve was beautiful, but he never had the courage to ask her out. So, he never did, and she ended up with Ted. Now here she was, heartbroken, and Mike wanted nothing more than to go and beat the hell out of him for breaking his best friends' heart.
Eve was a wonderful person, with a huge heart, and in no way did she deserve what Ted was currently putting through. He clenched his fists tightly as Ted crossed his mind, if he wasn't for Eve telling him no, Mike would be in his room right now punching him in the face.
He stared out the window at the Miami skyline, admiring the view of such a festive city. It was actually in this city where he and Eve had actually gone full speed ahead and had sex for the very first time. It was shocking to admit that to himself, but every time he did, he knew it was true. He turned around, slipping over a DVD and falling flat on his ass. "Damn it Kofi," he muttered before picking up the movie. Friends with Benefits, it read. How ironic.
He thought about throwing the DVD in Kofi's direction for a moment, but then he changed his mind, and set it down on the small nightstand that sat in between the two large beds in the hotel room. He turned around when he heard the bathroom door open, and what he saw made his heart stop.
Eve had pulled her hair into a messy bun, and put on a pair of light pink shorts, and a purple cami. She smiled slightly at her friend. "Are you okay, Mikey?"
Mike shook himself of the thoughts that were currently going through his head, and quickly returned the smile. "Huh?" He questioned. "Oh, yeah, I'm okay." He and Eve hadn't slept together in a while, and he was kind of on the fence about that.
He enjoyed having sex with Eve, but who wouldn't? The Denver native was beautiful, inside and out. But in the process of this cycle the two had friends had started, he had fallen in love with her, and of course, one of their rules when they started this was not to fall in love with one another.
Turning on the movie, both laid back in their hotel bed and began to watch the flick. Eve seemed to be very relaxed as she turned to Mike's face, which seemed embattled between trying to focus on the movie and the gorgeous face of Eve. His other bodily functions seemed to be heavily in favor of the latter however, so bringing her face up to his; he began to press down on her lips.
Eve melted into the kisses. She was never shy about being passionate and that was on full display right now. She immediately combed his hair back and started to push off his shirt. "This is my favorite part right here," she sensually giggled, her worries about her ex seemingly a forgotten memoir of the past.
Mike smiled against her lips, he loved hearing her laugh; and he loved seeing her happy. It made him even happier when he was the one who was making her happy. He slowly ran his tongue across her lower lip, asking for her permission.
Eve had granted him permission almost immediately. She loved the way he could make her feel, just by simply brushing his fingertips across her skin. It was times like this that they shared that made her question why she and Mike didn't become a couple, and just like all the other times, she could never find a logical answer.
"Mikey…" She whispered against his lips. "Don't you think that we'll wake Kofi?" She giggled at the thought of them waking the highflyer.
Mike smiled against her lips. "No, he's a heavy sleepier," he said gently. "Besides, I miss you, Eve."
"I miss you too," she whispered back. "So much."
The two best friends had gotten lost easily in their love making, and Eve fell asleep in his arms shortly after as he held her close, and ran his fingers through her hair. "Goodnight, Eve." He whispered against her skin.
He lay in bed, awake for a while as thoughts raced through his head. He loved Eve, but the two had promised each that they would never fall in love with one another. It's not that he regretted sleeping with Eve, or falling in love with her. But he regretted not telling her how he truly felt.
