Alexander Theodore Masters groaned as he clutched his head. He felt silky sheets rub against all parts of his body as he shifted away from that damn blinding light. It was once the pain subsided for a split second that Alex began to panic. He was naked. He was someplace that had a lot of dough, judging just by the feel of the sheets. He was completely hung-over. And did mention he was in his birthday suit? Alex inwardly fretted even more when he felt a warm arm loop around his waist and then tighten its grip to an almost painful degree. And, by the feel of things, not only was the owner of the arm a male, but a naked male. Oh hell, what had he done last night?
Alex continued to worry himself to death as a long orange bang flopped into his face and started to tickle his nose. Alex felt his eyes widen considerably as he had a mild heart attack once he realized whose hair it was. It was Ray Crisp's hair. As in Berzerker, the mutant with awesome electrical powers and a bad attitude who would most certainly kill Alex just for being in the same bed as him, in exclusion to the fact that they were both naked and practically cuddling and naked. Oh God, this was worse than catching his brother make out with Wolverine's clone, or seeing Emma's Christmas surprise for Jean Grey.
As Alex had a mild stroke, he felt the body next to him stir. Oh dear Lord Jesus, was he that horrible that karma decided to ruin and possibly end his life? Alex slowly shifted his body, still encased by an arm that only the Jaws of Life could pry him from and faced the man sleeping in his bed. A pair of light blue eyes that one could see faint electrical sparks in opened and met Alex's own brown pair. Ray yawned, loud and wide to the point of almost unhinging. The man then blinked and softly smiled down at Alex, whispering "Merry Christmas, my dear wife," before beginning to snore quietly again.
Alex looked down at his hands and, sure enough, a big sparkly ring with rubies and diamonds reflected his horrified face.
"Oh my GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!"
Meanwhile, half-way around the big ol' world, a Chinese man and screeched, "Goddamnit, Kiku! Not again, aru!"
