SEVENTH HEAVEN
Pairing – Alex Shelley and Austin Aries
Rating- M
Disclaimer – If I was Dixie Carter, I would have made this idea REAL a LOOONG time ago. Got it?
It all began on a chilly, cold night. Patrick , better known as Alex was sitting in a bar called Seventh Heaven. It was a cosplay bar for game fanatics. Chris, his tag team partner and a really good personal friend brought him here three years ago, when they began dating. It ended very quick , but it didn't affect their friendship. If something, break up only strenghtened it.
Chris was supposed to come here. He was late. Alex got a text message. It read:
Sorry, but I'm not gonna come tonight. Velvet wants to stay at the hotel and watch some movies. I'm sorry, Alex. Chris
Chris is totally charmed by her. Now they don't hang out that much. What should he do now? He ordered another round of vodka. Alex took a sip of it, looking at the contains of the glass. Tifa, bartender knew him for some time now and she gazed at him. " What's wrong, Alex? You look pale."
He didn't answer right away. Tifa… it sounds familiar. Chris mentioned that name before… hmmm…
Oh, she's a character from Final Fantasy VI and her boyfriend is…
" Cloud! You returned finally!" A blonde man with spiky hair got behind the bar and hugged her around the waist. Great. Now I see couples everywhere I fucking go, Alex thought. He glared at them.
Tifa noticed it and send her man in the storage to bring more vodka.
" Don't be so cold, Alex. You'll find someone worthy of your love. Maybe even tonight. "
He snorted in disbelief. " Tonight? " Tifa nodded and looked at the door. He didn't care who it was. Nobody's gonna truly love him. Meanwhile Cloud came back with a box of alcohol. Alex drank up all his remaining vodka and got up, to the toilet. When he came back, he saw the man he hated for his cocky behaviour. He was just sitting at the bar and drinking…. soda?
ALEX'S POV
I walked to him and sat on my chair. " I have always thought, that you're a vegetarian, not a straightedge." He gave me a sarcastic smile. " At least I don't need to drown my life in alcohol, like you do." I grabbed him by his collar. " YOU!" Tifa stopped me. " If you two want to fight, go out." I let go of him and stared at him, disgusted. " What the hell do you want from me, Aries?" He laughed. " Always straight to the business. Alright. I'm here, because I've got an e-mail from the upper management, that we- you and me, will have a veery long storyline, I'm here to give you details and discuss them with you." I raised my eyebrow.
" How did you know where to find me?"
" Easy. I asked Velvet Sky and she asked none other than your fellow member of Motorcity Machine Guns, Chris Sabin. "
I put two and two together. That's why Chris couldn't come tonight. He knew Austin Aries was going to seek me out. I sighed and sat more comfortably, shifting my left leg.
AUSTIN'S POV
He sighed and sat there, waiting. " You know Winter, Angelina Love? "
Alex nodded. " You know about their storyline relationship and how Angelina picked a fight with Sky, thus she broke up her old team, Beatiful People? From what I've read, they want us to play a little drama on TV. I will be playing the one meddling between you and Sabin. Management wants the MMG to break up."
His mouth was agape. Then…
" What? W-w-why? "
I shook my head. " From where should I know that? I was only informed of it , Sabin knows about it. He had no choice, but to agree. " My gaze was fixated on my phone. Alex lowered his head in defeat and closed his eyes. Tifa and Cloud have discretly gone away to the back. In the whole bar were only the two of us. Alex and me. I just checked my Twitter and second later, Alex is laying there, lifeless! I tried to lift his arm, but he didn't budge. My worries were doubled. Then I heard him sobbing.
…. I made him cry ?
I figured that I let him cry himself out, but it seemed that he had infine supply of tears. It was time for drastic action.
I pulled him up forcefully, his eyes were red. I planted a soft kiss on his lips. His eyes stared at me through long eyelashes, surprised. Alex tried to slip out from my tight hold, but I only deepened the kiss, now using my tongue. He didn't fight me anymore. No, no. It seemed he was enjoying himself pretty good. After a minute, I had to pull away for air. He looked at me, his cheeks burning up. I smiled at him. " There, you stopped crying."
ALEX'S POV
He kissed me so I would stop crying?
" Was that kiss also a part of storyline? " Austin let go of me and looked me directly in the eyes. " Think what you want. We'll discuss our matter tomorrow. You should go to your hotel and sleep. "
He didn't even look at me and walked out of the bar. I fell to my knees. MMG was a tag team since 2007 and now they want to disband them? They can't do that!
That's it! First thing I'll do tomorrow is call Chris. He has to know SOMETHING about this.
Tifa showed up. " Will you aslo pay for your friend?"
" Yes." I didn't pay attention, so I didn't catch the word „friend „ as I handed her over ten dollars. " Keep the change." And I left Seventh Heaven, got into my car, fastened my seatbelt and drove back to my hotel. I got in the lobby, where I met AJ with Chris Daniels. They were going to take the lift. When they saw me, they waved.
" Heeey, Alex! Back so soon?" I walked in the lift, pressed the button to my floor. " Yeah. And I'm not very pleased. " They gave me a weird look, but I ignored them. I got out on my floor, tired. I pulled out my card to hotel room, put it through the machine, it bleeped and room opened up. I put the card on a table in my bedroom as I sank to my matress, not giving a crap about putting off my jacket and jeans.
Alex woke up with the sound of someone banging on his door like some madman. He got up and yawned. " Alright, alright! I'm coming!" He opened it up and saw Chris (AN - so he was that madman? Heh) . And Austin Aries. So that all wasn't just a figment of his fertile imagination. Aries closed the door behind him and gazed at Alex. " When I said go back to hotel and sleep, I didn't mean you should sleep in your jacket and jeans. " Alex's clothes were creased, so he noticed it right away.
His tone started to tick Alex off. " If you wanna be smart, then shup the fuck up." Chris switched his look from Alex to Austin. This was going to be hard…
He tried to play the peacemaker. " You two, listen to me. Settle down."
Both sat on the couch. " And calm down." Alex had his fist balled up, he wanted so badly to smack that idiot, but friend's voice calmed him down. For now. He concetrated on Chris.
" Is it really true? Why disband MMG? I don't get it." Chris looked at me, serious. Things were REALLY BAD, if Chris looked serious.
" Because I asked them."
Alex almost fell off the couch.
" WHAAAAAAAAT?"
Austin looked sceptically at Chris. " See, I told you he' s gonna play drama queen."
Alex glared at him. " What did I tell you about KEEPING your mouth SHUT?" Austin snickered. Chris felt like a damn MOTHER, lecturing them. " Now I have a propose. BOTH OF YOU SHUT UP AND LISTEN TO ME!" They looked at him. And they were silent.
CHRIS' POV
" Now that I have your full attention, I will explain why I want the MMG to break up." Alex opened up his mouth, but I cut him off.
" Alex, I'm going to speak now. The breakup is just temporary. You'll be with Aries, just like Angelina Love and Winter. But, there's a big will team up again after year and a half. The plan is to make Aries a name for himself. He will show up when I'm not around and talk with you, he will help you many times. He'll even make you believe that I'm holding you down. We'll feud and then, after Turning Point, you'll be with him. And then, when the limit year and half is over, he'll throw you away and you'll be with me again, MMG. That's the storyline in short."
Alex's expression was emotionless. But something bothered Chris about it. He's never emotionless. Never.
" Why do you want this, Chris? And why him? " He pointed at the man.
"Because both you, me and fans need a break. Here Austin isn't exactly new, but people forgot about him. He needs to be in some kind of spotlight in order to gain back his fanbase. We will kill two birds with one stone."
Alex looked at me, pissed. " Well, THANKS for telling me. I'll be damned if you two and the rest of the wrestling world are cospiring against me." He got up and showed us to the door.
Alex showed them to the door. Chris looked him in the eye. " I'm sorry, but it's necessary." He was still pissed. Chris hugged him, but Alex didn't return it at first. He's still his friend, no matter what. He embraced him back. That made a smile on Chris' face. He let go of him and left his room.
" Do you need a permission to leave me alone, Aries?" Austin smirked as he leaned over Alex, tickling him with his breath.
" I don't need your permission to do this…" And he pressed his lips against his. Alex was prepared for it. He bit him in the tongue. Austin let go of him, still smirking.
" See you later at the tapings, PARTNER." He opened the door, gave him a big wink and exited his hotel room. Alex shut the door behind him. "DAMN IT! I really don't like it. This is even worse than the camera job!"
He walked over to the couch, fell on it. Alex pulled out his mobile. He knew who could help him.
He dialled number.
