A/n thank you for reading, I am slowly getting there...or am I?
As an athlete Axl knows that not always one will find a supporting crowd and he also knows just how hard turning around a game is when being ignored or even booed at. Sue, as always, is unworldly.
The crowd has made space for the Wrestlerettes to perform. Axl observes as they stare and start to snerk. He wants to punch each one of them for being so rude but then it stops and actually a few claps are heard. He reaches the center as the crowd starts to cheer and rave.
Sue is showing some killer moves while backed up by her friends. Soon they invite the applauding attendees to join in. Sue grasps Axl's hand and brings him close, he shakes his head but she just laughs and makes him dance along. And he does, at first very awkwardly but then she hugs him and laughs even louder and is so affectionate he can't resist. He holds Sue embracing her waist as they swing away while Pharell sings how happy he is. "Okay now, we really have to go." Axl warns pulling her aside before they leave hand in hand deviating from the dancing couples.
She sighs as the car comes to a halt in front of their house, "We are home already?" He smiles. The updo is now a somewhat messy downdid and her makeup is slightly smudged but, damn her, still very kissable. "We should probably get in." he advises already unbuckling his seat belt.
"No, wait!" Sue protests all demanding. He stops what he is doing and looks at her slightly startled. "What's wrong, Suenderella?" Axl quips. Her face lightens as she hears him call her by that funny little name she made up. "Lets go somewhere...Please? I don't want to go home just yet. I mean, it's my big night, I wanna...I wanna be like my counterpart, you know, Cinderella, and arrive at midnight."
Axl checks his cell phone, it is twenty five to midnight, meaning they do have some time left. Their curfew is supposed to be midnight – sharp! their dad alerted. "Well, where do you wanna go, Suenderella?" She smiles again hearing her new nickname. "Shadow Hill. Lets go counting fireflies." He cant believe she suggested that. As kids they would go camping there and play a silly game of counting fireflies at night. Of course Axl always won by fooling her not to stare or the insects would come over and burn her to death with those light bulb butts.
So up the hill they go. It is only a five-minute drive, besides the view from above is beautiful. They can gaze at the fireflies, the stars and the moon that always seems to be bigger over the horizon.
