As my eyes drifted open there was Mike exactly as I left him earlier this morning. Hair still messed up, his beautiful eyes still closed and lips still parted. I peered over his shoulder and saw it was now 8:55 am. I sighed and rolled out of bed.
I didn't really have anything to do today, other than a much-needed work out. I went into the bathroom and changed into my work out clothes. I threw my blonde locks into a ponytail then brushed my teeth and washed my face. Once I was all ready I exited the bathroom and began my search for my i-pod. Once I found it I looked at Mike again and felt a smile tug at the corners of my lips. I walked up to side table and wrote him a note;
Mikey :),
Went to the gym.
Be back around ten.
-Alice
I left the hotel room and took the stairs down to the gym in the hotel. I groaned inwardly when I saw who was there; the twins from hell.
The two brunettes looked at me with disgust but I did my best to ignore them. After I did my warm up, I heard them snicker something along the lines of, 'looks like the cow wants to lose some weight' as I stepped onto the treadmill. 'Just ignore them' I thought as I put in my ear buds and started running on the treadmill.
After about a half hour on the treadmill I stepped off and got a mat. I laid down and decided to work on my abs. Three sets of 25 sit ups later I felt like someone was watching me. I got up, turned around and there was Nikki and Brie. "We don't get why you work out, it's not going to change the fact that your ugly." Brie smiled wickedly.
"Well you bimbo's don't get much of anything so I'm not surprised." I retorted and I surprised myself. I don't know where this sudden backbone was coming from but I silently prayed it wouldn't leave me.
I walked away from the speechless girls and exited the gym with a bounce in my step and a newfound confidence.
I decided to take the elevator back up and who else was there but Kevin. "Hey Kev." I greeted with a smile. I may be still an outcast in the WWE but I honestly didn't care anymore. Plus last night we were basically drinking buddies so that meant we were aloud to talk to each other right? God this is high school all over again!
"Hey." He greeted messaging his temples; looks like he had a hang over too. He stepped out of the elevator.
Before the doors closed I yelled out a, "Good luck with the hang over." I said and he froze. He spun on his heal and jumped back in the elevator.
"Is it that obvious that I'm fighting one?"
I nodded, "Well that and I was there when you got it. At least I think I was. I really don't remember."
"My headache won't go away. This sucks!" He groans. I rub his shoulder comfortingly.
"Don't worry I have some Advil in my room." I said and heard him mumble something like 'Thank God.'
As the elevator doors opened I stepped out and led him to my room. Of course I left the key card in the room. I began knocking on the door.
It opened and we were greeted by, "What now Maryse? Oh…hey guys." Mike stepped aside letting Kevin and I in.
"So Blondie still bothering you about… you know?" Kevin asked Mike.
"Not now Kev." Mike grumbled.
Part of me wanted to know what they were talking about but I knew it was none of my business so I didn't say anything.
"Mike where's your Advil?" I asked look him. He seemed lifeless. His usually brilliant eyes were dull and exhausted. Whatever it was Maryse was doing to him, it obviously took a lot out of him.
Mike dug out the bottle from his suitcase and handed to me. I filled up a glass of water from the bathroom and handed the pill and water to Kevin. He took the pills and downed the water.
Kevin thanked me then left the hotel room. Now it was just me and Mike.
I sat down on the bed and looked at Mike who was standing in the middle of the room with his hands running through his hair. He looked so confused; like he was fighting a battle with himself. I wanted so bad to help but I didn't know what to do. I took a deep breath before standing up and making may way over to him.
"Mike, what's wrong?" I ask looking into his tired eyes.
"Nothing, I'm fine."
I raised my brow, "Don't lie to me."
A brief smile came across his face, " I saw your note. I thought it was cute."
A blush came across my face but then I realized he was just trying to change the subject. "Mikey, just tell me what's wrong." I pleaded.
"Nothing now go take a shower, you just worked out." He gave me a weak smile. I complied with his orders, grabbed some clothing and went into the bathroom.
I stripped of my clothing and got into the shower. I let the warm water slide down my body, completely relaxing me. I washed my body then my hair. I stepped out of the shower and secured a towel around my body. I grabbed the blow dryer and began drying my blonde mane. Once satisfied with my hair I pulled on a pair of short shorts and a off the shoulder t-shirt. I applied a bit of black eyeliner and some lip-gloss then exited the bathroom.
Expecting to see Mike, I frowned when I saw the room was empty. Then a note caught my attention. I walked over to the side table and picked up the small piece of paper.
Alice,
I had something to take care of.
I'll be back around 12:00.
Maybe we can grab lunch…
- Mikey
P.S- you are the only one allowed to call me that
A smile played on my lips as I put the note down.
Now the only thing that could bring me down was the fact I would have to wait to see him.
I hate waiting.
A/N: I'll have you guys know that I stayed up until four thirty in the morning just to write this chapter; so you better as fuck enjoy it (Just kidding. sorry about the hostility.) Anyways, thanks for reading!
