Chapter Two

Mike watched his friend as he got ready for his day with Dwayne. Alex could feel the anger rolling off the older man, but he chose to ignore it. He kept his mind on the task at hand: getting ready.

"I can't believe you agreed to spend the day with HIM," Mike said. "You know he's against me and John."

"Mike, I'm just being polite," Alex quietly said.

"You don't have to be polite to that ass!"

"He's not an ass. He's just a man doing his job."

"Really? Really, Kevin? Really?"

Alex rolled his eyes. He knew he was in deep shit when Mike used his real name.

"That man has it out for John and me. That man is just a sorry excuse for a wrestler. He hasn't been here in seven years and yet he wants everything handed to him. He acts like he owns the place. He just wants to relive his glory days that he gave up to become a fucking tooth fairy. And yet," Mike paused, "here you are prettying yourself up for him. For HIM!"

Alex stood up after he put on his shoes. "It's just hanging out with a legend. If you were in my shoes and got to hang out with someone of Dwayne's caliber, you would do it."

Mike's right eye twitched. "Did...did you just call him Dwayne?"

"Well, that's his name. He's not a wrestler any more...an actor." The younger man went and got his wallet and phone. "It's not that bad. Just breakfast and hanging out. I might get to know his true motives."

Mike huffed. "True motives? Whatever. He's just an asshole."

"Mike!"

"You go out on this date or hanging out or what ever you call it, you're going to find yourself without a room."

Alex stared at him. "You serious?"

"Maybe." Mike folded his arms.

The younger man sighed. He shook his head and walked out of the hotel room.

Mike's jaw dropped.

Alex breathed heavily as he tried to calm down. He wiped his eyes when the elevator doors opened. He went to the back of the car and kept his head down.

Hunter stared at him. "What's wrong with you?"

Alex shook his head. "I'm fine."

"You don't look it."

"I'll be all right."

Hunter nodded.

They rode in silence until the doors opened onto the lobby. Both men stepped out. Hunter watched as Alex went to sit in a chair. The younger man looked around, trying to find his companion.

"Alex?" Dwayne called.

The younger man stood up and smiled. "Hi."

The older man studied him. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing. Don't worry about it."

Dwayne nodded. "Shall we go?"

Alex smiled. "Okay."

They both walked out of the lobby. Soon, Mike and John followed them.

Hunter folded his arms over his chest. "Okay."

…

"Can you believe this?" Mike asked as he watched his best friend laughed at what Dwayne said.

John grumbled.

"That man is up to something. Why can't Kevin see that?"

Cena turned to his husband.

"What?" Mike asked. "Think about it...why ask him out? Alex is close to me and I'm with you."

John slowly nodded.

"Hi!" a little girl greeted.

John smiled. "Hello."

"May I have an autograph?"

"Sure." Cena signed her magazine.

"Why are you and the Miz hanging out?"

"Spying on the Rock," Mike replied. "Trying to find his weakness."

"But what is Alex doing?" she questioned.

"Gathering information for us," Mike answered.

"Oh!" She watched them for a few moments. "I need to get back to my Mommy."

"Have a great day, little girl," John said.

Mike watched her leave. "Inquisitive."

"That she is."

"They're on the move."

Alex and Dwayne walked out of the diner and strolled down the to the bookstore.

"What are we doing here?" Alex asked.

"I need to find some good reading materials," Dwayne replied.

The younger man nodded.

They went about browsing. Alex got some mystery novels and three puzzle books. Dwayne went for some history, sports, and political books.

"Wow," Alex said as he spied the books. "Heavy reading."

Dwayne nodded. "I like keeping informed."

"I like entertainment."

The older man smiled and paid for everything. They went about town before they went to dinner.

"This is a nice place," Alex complimented.

"Impressed yet?" Dwayne asked.

"I've been impressed, Rock."

"Please...call me Dwayne."

Alex smiled. "Call me Kevin."

"I like that."

They talked and ate. They left the restaurant and began to walk around the town.

"I'm not sure what's going to happen these next few months," Alex replied.

"No one can predict the future," Dwayne said.

"I know...I just..."

"What?"

"I like you, Dwayne, and I want to get to know you a little better."

Dwayne stopped walking.

Kevin looked back at him and just stared into the older man's unreadable face. "You know what? Never mind. I shouldn't have said anything. You're just probably being polite or something."

The older man walked over to him and pressed two fingers onto Alex's lips. "I want to get to know you too."

"Really?" Kevin mumbled.

Dwayne nodded.

The younger man blushed and looked down.

The older man smiled. "Let's go back to the hotel."

"Okay."

When they got back, they went their separate ways. Alex was excited. His date with Dwayne went well and the older man wanted to get to know him just as much as he wanted to get to know Dwayne. His heart fluttered as he thought about Dwayne's fingers on his lips.

Kevin got to his floor and went to the room that he shared with Mike. He opened the door and found all of his things packed with a note.

Since you decided to go out with him, maybe he'll let you sleep in his room. Maybe he'll let you stroke the all mighty rod.

-The Miz

Alex sighed and gathered his luggage, laptop bag, and backpack.

Dwayne was happy. His date went well and he wanted to go on more. He knew that that wouldn't happen because of his and Alex's schedule. He knew that he would find a way. He needed to find a way.

There was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Dwayne called.

"Hunter!"

Dwayne smiled and opened the door. "What's up, man?"

"Nothing much," Hunter replied as he walked in. "Listen. Mike is Alex's best friend and I don't want any trouble brewing even though it might have started."

Dwayne studied his friend.

"Alex was kicked out of his room."
"What?"

"Don't worry. There was another room available."

The Rock sighed and he rubbed the back of his head. "Seriously? The Miz kicked him out because of a date with me?"

Hunter nodded. "Just letting ya know."

"Thanks." Dwayne watched his friend leave. He pulled out his phone. "Hi, Kevin. It's me. Call me when you get a chance."

Dwayne stared off as he thought about the younger man. He wanted to be with him and there was no way that some Diva nor Fruity Pebble was going to stop him.
