Thanks for all the Favorits and Follows :) Though I just hope it isn't all for Renee hate haha (Just kidding! haha jk)
The doctor had given her some pain meds but after that the night was a blur. She did remember saying she wanted to kiss Jon but she didn't know why or when or even when she said it. Maddy was so out of it that when a phone rang, waking her, she fell out of her hotel room bed.
"Oh gees! Mad! Are you okay?" Tori said standing above her.
"Ow." She rubbed her head. "What happened?"
"Yeah. No the phone woke her up. Sure! But are you sure you guys have the time?" Tori listened to the person on the other end. "Okay cool give me a few minutes to get her off the floor."
"Off the floor?!" Maddy heard Jon's voice. "What do you mean?"
Tori laughed. "The phone scared her and she fell out of bed. She's okay but I wouldn't be if…"
There was a knock on the door interrupting Tori. Maddy was scaring down at her leg and the cast around ankle. What the hell? She remembered she couldn't walk after she and Jon had fallen after the car nearly hit her but she didn't realize it had been bad enough for a cast. So much for the week Tori and her had planned out.
"What happened?" She asked again but was ignored once more and struggled to pick herself up.
"You are going to get me killed!" Tori exclaimed. "I said she was fine."
Who the hell is she talking to? Maddy turned to look over her shoulder. Jon! Colby! Oh my God! Her last thought before Jon came around the bed was what Tori had dressed her in when they'd got here. She looked down. Good. Her wrestling is real people are fake shirt, not bad….but only her panties! She groaned she bet her hair looked horrid too.
"Sweet heart, I think the bed would be more comfortable." She looked up horrified at that voice.
Jon smiled down at her the sarcasm lighting his blue eyes as if they were lighted from behind. She didn't say anything as she staring in horror of him seeing her in her underwear and fading tee before they even had a date. Not that she thought she even had a chance after all Renee had come out of the-I'm-dating-Dean Ambrose-closet not long ago. But the fact that Dean Ambrose of all people was seeing her like this and she wasn't even trying to get his attention was too much.
"Don't kill me Maddy. After all it's his fault."
"Isn't it always?" Jon muttered not thinking any one heard. But Maddy had.
Jon stooped down and lifted Maddy's one hundred four five body as if she was a feather and plopped her on the bed. He moved back but she had the strangest feeling that his hands were still on her body and she wished they were. She looked up and muttered a thank you then grabbed the pillow and threw it at Tori.
"Tori-Beth Ana! It's your fault you could have put some pants or shorts on me. Gees!" She looked passed her friend and her eyes grew wide. "What the hell did you do to my hair?"
"Ow! And okay fine it is my fault but you didn't have any pants besides jeans and I didn't do anything to your hair. You decided you needed to brush it after I put you to bed."
Her hair was a total mess. It was tangled and knotted in ways she didn't think a single person could do alone. She sighed and ran a hand through what she could then looked sheepishly up and the three waiting faces.
"What?"
"Well we're starved…"
"…You're always stavred." Jon laughed.
Colby shot him a dirty look then continued. "And we were going to take you ladies out for breakfast but if you don't feel up for it…"
Another chance at a conversation with Jon? "…No I'm up…Argh!"
Jon caught her before she landed on her face. "Crutches, honey."
She ran a hand over her face. "Thanks."
Tori and Colby were laughing so hard they were literally holding each other up but when Jon flashed Colby a look he shut up fast Tori got a face full of pillow and stifled herself. Jon grinned and winked at her before handing her the crutches making sure she could hold herself up before moving away.
"As I was saying I'm up for breakfast. Just let me get dressed."
They ate at a restaurant Colby begged to go to. Maddy laughed at Jon's exaggerated sigh and eye roll in the car as he made the turn that would take them to the dinner. Tori and Maddy both had to laugh as Colby acted like an excited child, clapping and exclaiming.
"Oh my God, Dude! Cut it out." Jon complained.
That only made the girls laugh more which made Colby crack up. By the time they were shown to their booth Jon had joined them. Four laughing people at seemingly nothing turned a few heads but since it was early, too early for most wrestling fans, nobody recognized the men. The girls took one side while Jon and Colby took the other. They ordered and chatted while they waiting for the food.
Colby's phone rang. "I'll be right back."
"I have to pee. Brb." Tori said not long after.
Jon and Maddy stayed sitting where they were and continued their chat until Jon looked at her in a way that made her almost nervous. He moved to her side of the booth. And started their conversation again. She pondered why he had moved but she didn't have to think about it very long. Jon leaned into her and kissed her. It was short and sweet and made her want more but instead of following him when he leaned back she said something she really didn't want to say.
"I thought you were with Renee?" She asked and wanted to slap herself.
"Ugh." He sighed. "I hate her for saying that. We had been together, yes but not since around December of last year. I don't know why she said we were."
"Were what?" Tori came up. "Why are you…Did you kiss?"
"Shut up and sit down, bug." Maddy glared.
Tori rolled her eyes but set down on the other side. Colby came back just as the waiter returned with their food and both men stared at the table as though they were in a warped time or something. Colby took the space Tori cleared for him and stared at Jon curiously as the waiter deposited food. After switching some plates they didn't say anything as they ate. But Maddy found herself missing the playful banter that Colby and Jon shared. She also missed his body oh so close to hers.
"Why are you mouse and she's bug?" Jon asked as they set at a red light.
"We were in a play in third grade when we met. I was a mouse and she was a lady bug. That's pretty much it."
"Oh…"
"…Bug?" Colby asked. "How do you know this?"
"I called her bug when you were on the phone." Maddy explained simply.
Colby didn't ask any more and Jon didn't say anything. Tori and Colby walked quietly in the back seat leaving Maddy and Jon to think. Maddy could feel his eyes on her at red lights and she took her turn looking at him while he drove. His profile was just as gorgeous as the front and back. His jaw worked as they hit traffic. So driving he liked but not the traffic she could understand that. She itched to run her hand over his almost ever present five o'clock shadow.
"What?"
They were at light she finally noticed which meant he'd caught her looking at him. Maddy blushed, embarrassed that he'd seen her staring at him. She looked at him again those intensely blue eyes staring right back at her. She felt like he was looking passed her face, passed her eyes into her soul and she was sorely tempted to bare all.
"Nothing."
"Did something happen at the restaurant?" Colby asked.
Maddy shot a glare at Tori who professed her innocence. "I didn't say anything I swear."
"Bug."
"I didn't!"
"She didn't. It's just the way Jon's acting. After all I know him almost as well as he does."
Jon grunted annoyed as he began driving again. The car grew quiet after that until Maddy hit the dial on the radio and found a station they could all agree on. She bobbed her head to the song and laughed as Colby belted out the song as ridiculously as possible.
"Not you too!" Jon said with an exaggerated sigh. "Joe does the same thing with this song."
The other three laughed and Maddy mockingly patted his upper arm. God, those muscles! She thought. No. No. Stop that thinking don't touch him. She commanded herself as she looked way to stare at the moving scenery. Jon hadn't missed the small moan that she hadn't realized she'd let out when she touched him and turned to her. He followed her profile down, down, down….
"Jon! The road please!" Colby practically screamed.
Both he and Maddy were jarred out of their thoughts by not only Colby's scream but by the loud popping sound that followed his warning. "Shit." Jon let off the gas and turned the car more to the side of the road as it came to a stop.
"And people think he's a better drive…"
"Colby." Jon warned as he exited the car. "No back talk. Just get out and help me, you asshole."
"What? Help the guy that should have seen the giant metal thing in the road before he hit it? I don't…" Jon reached in and grabbed the smaller man pulling him out of the car. "Well fuck you too."
The girls shared a smile knowing they had acted the same way a few times. It was a best friend thing. They couldn't help but laugh when they heard the boys arguing again. It wasn't long until they decided to join them instead of sit in the car.
"What's taking so long?" Tori asked, helping Maddy up.
"We gotta call AAA. The jack that came with the car isn't the right one." Jon explained coming to stand by Maddy.
She leaned into him while Tori got her crutches from the trunk. He slipped his arm around her waist without a second thought. Tori had to force her to take the things and Maddy rolled her eyes in annoyance that she'd have to hold herself up completely. She said a mental screw you Tori but took it back when Jon grabbed them and put them to the side.
"We're gonna be here awhile no reason to make your arms sore." He justified the act.
