Adam gently put Chris down on the large, king sized bed. He thanked the Bellman and gave him a hefty tip. The man thanked the couple in return and left them in the cozy room.
Chris laid down, he just wanted to sleep. He felt exhausted. "No don't Chris. You can't sleep yet. Besides, I think we have some talking to do," Adam said with a gentle shake to Chris' shoulders.
Jericho's blue eyes flew open, he smiled at the beautiful blond. Before Adam could even smile in return, Chris' lips were on his. The first kiss had not been a fluke, this one felt just as wonderful.
Chris' fingers worked their way into Adam's shoulder length locks, pulling him in deeper. Without hesitation their tongues tangled together. Adam braced himself with his arms on the bed, he didn't want to hurt Chris further as he melted into the kiss.
Outside, Slater was licking his lips, already he was gathering evidence for the boss. Oh was Adam going to be in trouble!
"Is this real?" Adam asked in a dreamy tone as the finally broke their second kiss. He was more sure than ever about this feelings, he was in love with Chris Jericho.
"Yes baby, it's real. I have had feelings for you for a long time. Every time I got enough courage to tell you, you were with someone or stupidly I was. Didn't you ever wonder why we were never truly happy with anyone else? It's because our hearts and souls knew we weren't with the right ones. Look inside, baby... what do you feel?" Chris was sitting up, his eyes searching Adam's deeply, like a lighthouse guiding in a lost ship.
Adam closed his green eyes and just listened to his heart. "I feel at home. I feel at peace. I feel complete. I feel loved. Oh Chris, I do, I do love you! I'm sure of it. I. Love. You!" Adam's eyes opened. He smiled brightly, he was head over heels in love with the man across from him.
The sun would be no match with the smile on Jericho's lips. "I love you. I want you to be with me, from this moment on. Your mine now," Chris said as he toyed with the bracelet on Adam's wrist. He needed Adam to remove it of his own free will.
Adam looked at the bracelet. Suddenly, it felt more like a handcuff than a love token. Something that he had once treasured he now questioned.
"Just now, when you said 'you are mine now', it made me feel good and happy. When Wade gave me this, he said the same thing. At first I liked it but lately it made me feel more like I was his property, not his boyfriend. Truthfully, I was starting to be a bit afraid of him. But, I was so desperate to be loved, to belong to someone, I just pushed it down. I mean he was always nice to me. I don't like what he did to you. I can't be with someone like that," Adam said as he worked the bracelet open. He let it fall off his wrist.
As the bracelet hit the bed, Adam felt a weight lift from his body. It was another sign that he was doing the right thing. He picked the piece of jewelry up.
"I'll give this back to him tomorrow. I'll have to talk to him and explain things. He's in my room anyway. He liked my Championship perks. I'll tell the room booker to make sure I have ground floor rooms from now on," Adam said with a smirk. He'd gotten up to put the bracelet in his bag.
"Ground floor? Hum... for the Champion I could do the second floor. I want you to wait to talk to Barrett. I want to be able to go with you. I don't want you alone with him," Chris spoke in a happy, then worried but firm tone.
"You're worried? I've... nobody... you really do love me? This isn't a dream?" Adam was near tears, no one had ever shown him this much care. Randy tried once, but he failed. He just wasn't the type.
"Yes I do, I love you. Your care and safety come first. I just realized you can help me with my kids! I... I... didn't and don't want them around Wade. It's not a dream, now get back over here. I have more kissing to do," Jericho said in a teasing tone.
"Give me ten minutes. I want to shower first. I stink of ring dust. I'll help you wash when I'm done. You'll feel better too. Got some sleeping pants? I'll have to wear my shorts," Adam said as he rummaged through his bag to find his shower kit and a clean pair of shorts.
Within the hour both ring vets were fresh and clean. Adam cursed at the bruises on Chris but was glad there was no real internal damage. Adam was in a pair of navy blue gym shorts and his Rated R Superstar t-shirt. Chris was wearing a pair of light blue sleeping pants and no shirt. They were waiting for room service to arrive with their food.
Chris was lying on the bed, Adam next to him. The taller blond was being kissed like never before as one of Chris' hands rested on his hip. Adam's arm was carefully draped over Chris' hip. Soft moans were coming from both men.
Slater was still at his post. He couldn't stop listening, he knew Wade would make good use of the information he was getting. He also knew despite what Copeland thought, Wade just wouldn't let Adam go. Wade was too fond of his blond property and the prestige that came with dating a Champion. He stuck the headphones back in his ears and listened.
"This sure is a nice way to stay awake," Chris murmured over Adam's lips.
"Mmm hum," Adam replied as Chris pulled him in for another kiss. It was like their lips had been made for each other. Neither man had ever felt like this before, it was perfection.
Adam reluctantly pried himself away from Chris when room service knocked on the door. He paid for the meal and gave the young man a tip. Adam was glad he threw his wallet in his bag at the last minute along with his cell phone. He didn't usually carry them to the arena.
Chris sat on the edge of the bed while Adam sat in a chair across from Chris. They used the room service cart as their table. They were chewing on the excellent hamburgers and sharing a very large vanilla milkshake.
"Wish we had time to take the kids to my house in Asheville. They could play with the dogs and climb the mountain." Adam said between bites.
"They would love that. They get tired of the beach all the time in Tampa. They are too young for the L.A. house. It gets kind of wild out there. I only bought it so I have a place to stay when I'm doing television stuff," Chris explained as he took a sip of milkshake.
"I voted for you every week on Dancing. You should have won that show! How are you feeling? Better with a wash and food?" Adam asked the tawnier blond.
"I agree with you, Cheryl thinks the others voted against us because we were the biggest threat. Yes, I do feel a bit better. Still hurts though, Slater is a hard hitter even more so than Sheffield. Good thing I could fold up so tight, he couldn't reach anything too vital," Chris added his thoughts. He was honestly disappointed about Dancing With The Stars.
"I'm glad your feeling a bit better. Yup we both learned that in the Dungeon. Bret taught us how to protect our vitals, your yoga helps you get even tighter. Those were the best lessons I ever learned. Bret truly is one of a kind. You wanna know a big secret?" Adam asked with a very wicked smirk.
"Yes he is. What? Wait, you like millions have a crush on old Bret?" Chris asked with a laugh as he finished off his burger.
Adam flushed a deep pink, "Well, yeah... sort of... Bret... he... um... popped my cherry," Adam confessed with a stuttering tongue.
Chris' eyes went wide, "Wow... I didn't know he was even on team guy. Was he good? What? Even I had a crush on him!" Chris also confessed with a laugh.
"Oh my god! You mean the great Chris Jericho didn't know! Chris, he and Davy had a torrid affair for years! It's actually sad. When Davy died it tore Bret to bits. That's what really caused his stroke. I don't normally kiss and tell but yeah, it was nice. He and Davy hadn't fully hooked up yet. I still can't believe you didn't know! And you call yourself a Canadian?!" Adam expressed with a tone of surprise. He thought everyone knew about Bret.
"Okay, okay. You are so wicked. I decided a long time ago that people can learn something new every day. But to cause his stroke? They must have really loved each other. Like I love you. Now that I have you, I'd die without you," Chris spoke softly to the beauty across from him.
Adam's eyes teared up, "Oh Chris, I love you but promise me, if something should ever happen to me, go on living and be happy," Adam's tone was almost... haunted.
"Hey baby boy. It's just a way of saying how much I love you. Are you that afraid that something will happen with your neck? You've been checked right? I promise, I'll not do anything stupid," Chris said in a warm, caring tone as he took Adam's hand in his.
"Sometimes. Yeah, I get checked... often. I'll eventually need another surgery but I hope not for a while. Let's change the subject. Tell me how beautiful I am," Adam got up and did a sexy little pose as he pushed the room service cart out into the hall. He also put the Do Not Disturb sign on the door handle.
Chris howled in approval as Adam shimmied for him. He turned to lie back down on the bed, he was feeling tired again.
"Hey now, wakey wakey. You can't fall asleep on me. Doctor said eight hours. We still have four to go," Adam said softly as he slipped into the bed next to Chris.
It only took Jericho a few seconds to worm Adam under him and resume kissing his fellow grappler.
Adam's arms gently slid around Chris' bare back, his skin was soft and warm. Chris thought Adam's hands felt so good as they gently rubbed his sore body. "That feels so good," Chris muttered as Adam kept rubbing his back.
Soon Adam was gently straddling Chris' hips as he gave Jericho a full back massage. His fingers expertly kneaded in the right places and rubbed in others. It was the best massage he'd ever had.
"Ahhh, god Adam, you have magic hands. My back feels so much better," Chris said in a lazy tone.
Adam leaned forward and started peppering soft butterfly kisses across the strong back. His eye lashes tickled, making goose flesh across Jericho's skin.
Chris was feeling sexually charged. He knew he'd regret it later as banged up as he was but he'd waited long enough, he wanted to claim the blond beauty as his fully.
With a mighty roar, Chris flipped them over, Adam was now firmly under him. There was no denying what he wanted as his eyes flashed. His left hand wrapped around Adam's neck as he gently pulled him in for a deep kiss. His right had caressed Adam's half erect cock over the fabric of his shorts.
Slater was nearly salivating not only did he have stuff for his boss about Adam, but also Bret Hart.
The WWE was going to bring Bret in soon for an angle as the Commissioner. This would insure the Nexus could get their way in story lines. Wade would be proud of him. He could almost feel gold around his waist as a reward.
Adam moaned softly, he pressed his groin against Chris' hand. He knew Chris should probably not be doing this but it felt so fucking good. He wanted Chris to take him, make him his own, seal their new found love.
"I... don't... you... need... rest... shouldn't... do this," Adam panted out as his cock grew hard and ached under Chris' touch.
"Don't care... want you... please," Chris panted in return as Adam nipped gently on his neck.
Adam looked up into Chris' blue eyes, they were darkened with lust. He'd never seen so much love and desire in a pair of eyes before. It was all for him.
"Please, just love me," Adam asked softly as he gave his permission. His own green eyes reflected the same feelings back. Love was so thick in the air you could have felt it if you tried to brush it away.
Chris curled his fingers around the waist band of Adam's shorts and underwear. He pulled them down the mile long legs. Adam's legs were even sexier than he had ever imagined.
While Chris was pulling his pants off, Adam quickly pulled off his t-shirt. He was naked before Chris for the first time. The usual shyness he felt wasn't there. He knew it was because his heart was at home.
"Your beautiful all over. I'm a very lucky man. All this is mine," Chris started kissing Adam from the toes up. Adam realized at some point Chris had rid himself of his sleeping pants.
Aside from the bruises, Chris was equally as handsome. He was tawny bronze and with his hair spiked he reminded Adam of a strong, young lion, especially when his muscles rippled under his skin.
"My Lion," Adam husked out as Chris' hand ghosted over his cock. It twitched as Chris touched it for the first time, skin on skin.
The way Adam mewled softly when Chris caressed his cock reminded the older man of a cute kitten.
"My Kitten," Chris responded in kind as he kissed the tip of Adam's leaking shaft. It caused the blond to mewl again, he'd never felt as good as he did at that moment.
Slater had to strain to hear but he knew the sounds of sex when he heard them. He was smirking more and more. Adam was going to pay and pay dearly. Nobody cheated on Barrett and got away with it. He decided to stay and record as much as possible. He still had about an hour of data to fill. He was sure it would be enough.
"Lion please, oh fuck please, don't tease me" Adam mewled out sounding even more kittenish.
"Would I do that? My little Kitten?" Chris again barely kissed the tip of Adam's painfully erect shaft.
"For godsake please Lion, suck me! Hard!" Adam begged, he needed to feel Chris' mouth desperately.
Chris growled low and quickly sucked as much of Adam down as he could before his gag reflex kicked in. Normally he would have been able to take all of Adam deep in his throat, but it was raw from all the screaming during the attack in the ring.
Adam didn't care, there weren't many that could take his whole cock but what Chris did was glorious. The Lion knew just where to apply pressure and just where to gently scrape with his teeth. The Kitten slowly started to rock his hips.
Chris hand fumbled to the bedside table where he kept his lube. Adam was only vaguely aware of his lover's movements as his fingers tangled in the Lion's "mane".
With his fingers slicked with lube, Chris found his pink puckered prize. Adam felt Chris' fingers searching and spread his legs open for his Lion. He was rewarded when he felt the large finger slip inside his tight, hot heat and started to work him open.
Adam pressed his hips down, driving the probing finger in deeper, while the expert mouth kept sucking on his cock. The Kitten had never felt like this, his body was alive with sensations. Love and caring made all the difference.
Chris worked his lover's pucker open, until three fingers slid in and out. He pulled his mouth off Adam's cock causing a whimper of protest.
"Easy Kitten. God I love you. Are you ready baby? Can I make love to you? Please?" Chris asked his sexually charged Kitten.
"Yes Lion, yes please make me yours and only yours, forever," Adam whimpered softly.
Chris smiled at Adam's words. He lined his own hard, aching length up with the gasping pucker of flesh and muscle. He slowly pushed his cock into the slick heat. Even prepped Adam was tight. The Lion thrust his hips as he worked his way to the bundle of nerves that would make Adam come undone.
Adam cried out in pain but Chris listened carefully, there was no real distress in the pained cry but still he stopped his forward movement. He gave Adam time to adjust.
Chris' way of making love was so different. Like he was studying Adam, learning what his body needed.
Normally his lovers just plowed into him. Never giving him time to breathe or adjust. Only Bret had been as careful and that was because Adam was a virgin. The Kitten quickly adjusted, he thrust his hips, his signal that Chris could continue.
Jericho picked up the cue and worked the rest of the way in. His mouth was kissing Adam into the oblivion of the sexual heavens, a place he'd never really been before. He'd been close, but hadn't quite reached the apex of the highest heights.
Chris started a tempo with his hips as his hand slid between their sweat slicked bodies and grasped Adam's cock and started pumping in counter sync with his hips. The feeling was incredible.
Adam's arms wrapped around Chris' back gently as he just let his body be used by his Lion. He was so full of sensations he could only whimper into Chris' kisses.
When Jericho struck his prostate for the first time it felt so good, all he could do was cry. It was the first time he had ever cried during sex, not from pain but from pure emotions.
Chris put everything he felt for his kitten into each thrust of his hips, each flick of his wrist as he stroked Adam's cock. He gently kissed away the tears that rained from the beautiful green eyes.
"I love you Kitten. You look even more beautiful with my cock splitting you open. You like it baby? Feels good doesn't it when I hit your little button, like this," Chris' cock jabbed against Adam's prostate again as a fresh wave of wonder enveloped his body.
Adam's mind went soaring even further, he loved sexy talk, my god could Chris get any better?
"Yes! Oh yes! Take me Lion. I love you so much!" Adam nearly screamed out his feelings. His body just shuddered with the sensation.
They continued to make love. Both going further into the sexual heavens. Finally neither man could hold in their feelings. Their cocks either had to erupt or explode. They were to the point of it being painful.
"Cum for me Kitten, show me how pretty you are when you cum," the Lion husked deeply as he gave a final tug on Adam's cock.
With a scream of pleasure, Adam's cock erupted like never before. He'd never cum so hard or so much in his life. As he came his muscles contracted around Chris' cock buried in his ass so hard that it felt like his shaft was being torn from his body. With a mighty roar, Chris came, filling Adam so full that it spilled out around him and ran down Adam's thighs.
Chris fell on top of Adam as they both tried to remember how to breathe. As Chris' spent shaft slipped out of his lover, Adam whimpered a bit. The Lion gently kissed his Kitten till he calmed.
Heath had stayed through the whole thing, even though his recorder could hold no more data. He was tired and longed for his own, warm bed. He knew he had enough. He silently left his post. Ready to give his boss the evidence.
"Oh Chris, Chris. I... oh... god... I... felt things I never even imagined possible. It's... like... our... bodies...were made... for... each other... I... love... you... my … Lion," Adam could hardly form the words as his body still trembled from their love making.
"Me too Adam, oh me too. I love you. Sleepy now... it's safe...," Chris smiled and yawned lazily. He pulled Adam against him and wrapped his Kitten in his arms.
More than anything in the world, Adam loved and needed to be held after sex. Wade held him but nothing like the way Chris was holding him. He felt safe, treasured and most of all, loved.
It only took a few minutes for each man to fall into a deep sleep. It was the best rest either man had in a long time. It was like their souls knew they could sleep, because they had finally found each other.
Back in the other hotel, Wade had been pacing, alone in Adam's Championship room. He hoped Heath would arrive soon, he wanted to know what Adam was up to with Jericho. He had a bad feeling and he wanted confirmation.
There was a light knock on his door. Wade looked at the clock, it was well after three in the morning. It could only be Slater. He let the red head into the room.
"Just listen," was all Heath said. He sat on the large couch and gave Wade the small ear bud listening devices. When the Brit was settled, Heath pushed play.
The young man felt bad for his boss. He knew Wade liked Adam, maybe even loved him in his own way. Wade was in for a rude shock.
Barrett listened to the recording. His face went through a range of emotions. Shock, upset, anger and heartache. He knew he'd lost Adam as soon as the blond had removed the bracelet.
He too filed away the information about Bret Hart. He knew he could use it to get vital and important matches for the Nexus. Randy's belt for one, or if not, then Adam's for sure. The tag team for Slater and Otunga, and others that he would think of.
When it came to the part where the sex began he turned it off. He didn't need to listen to that in front of Heath.
Good work Slater. Just leave this here. You go to bed, sleep in, you earned it. I'll deal with Adam in the morning. Thank you, Heath," Wade spoke in an odd tone, anger mixed with heartache.
"Thanks and I'm sorry boss. I'll help in anyway I can. Goodnight," Heath said quietly. He left his boss to finish listening to Adam's final betrayal.
Wade did finish. He went and laid down in the bed that he had been sharing with the blond. The pillow still smelled of Adam. Wade wasn't as heartbroken as he was angry. Nobody cheated on him and nobody ever left him.
The Englishman made plans. He was going to break Adam into a million pieces. Not physically but mentally. He had a last thought before he went to sleep.
"If he thinks he leaving me for that old man Jericho, Adam is in for a surprise. Your mine Adam, forever," Barrett muttered as he drifted off.
Adam always woke up at six am, even if he went to bed at five thirty am. It was habit from his four dogs. He missed them so much when he was on the road. He had a good house sitter that loved Luger, Brannie, Tundra and Shine as much as he did.
When his green eyes opened, he smiled. He was still wrapped in Chris' arms. He felt wonderful and knew from now on he'd wake up with the same feeling. He couldn't wait. He wanted to spend all the time with Chris he could.
He decided to shower, then he would run over to his hotel, pack up his things, talk to Wade and be back in time to have breakfast with his Lion.
As quiet as a mouse he worked out of Chris' embrace. He was glad his Lion was a sound sleeper. Most of the wrestlers were, it came from years of learning to sleep in planes and on buses.
Adam quickly showered and threw on his shorts and t-shirt, he grabbed his bag so he could fill it as well.
He wrote a note and left it on his pillow:
My Dearest Lion,
I love you. Going to get my stuff and talk to Wade. It's better to do it alone. I'll be fine. Back in time for Breakfast.
Your loving Kitten, Adam
He kissed Chris on the cheek and quietly left. He decided to call a cab so he could drive his own rental back. WWE paid for his, as a Championship perk so better to drive his to the next city and turn Chris' back in.
For a minute Adam almost changed his mind. Chris had said he wanted to go with him, he didn't want Adam alone with Wade. Adam wasn't worried, after all people end relationships all the time.
Adam formed a plan as he waited for the cab the desk clerk had called. He hoped Wade would be alone. Sometimes a member or two of the Nexus would join them for breakfast. They all liked the perks Adam got as World Heavyweight Champion.
It was a little after seven when he arrived at the hotel attached to Madison Square Garden. He got out, paid and tipped the driver.
Adam was just about to enter the hotel when Shawn and Hunter came jogging around the corner.
"Hey Adam! What are you doing here? How is Chris?" Shawn asked as he panted slightly from their run.
"Yeah, hey Champ. Chris okay?" Hunter asked as well. He gently reached over and wiped a bead of sweat that was about to fall in Shawn's eye.
Adam sighed happily, Chris would be like that too, oh how he loved his Lion.
The Levesque's shared a glance with each other. They knew by the expression on Adam's face that something special had happened.
"Oh the Lion...er... um Chris is fine. The bruises look a lot worse than they are. He'll be very sore today. I'm just here to get my stuff. I'm going back for breakfast. I guess you should know... Chris and I..." Adam just beamed with his new found love.
Adam explained he and Chris were now together and he was here to break things off with Wade and go back to Chris. Shawn was glad, Chris finally found love. He thought they would make a great couple.
"I'm happy for you. You're just... glowing. You both deserve this. Are you sure you should see Wade alone? Let me come with you, for Chris as well. I'm actually surprised he isn't with you," Shawn said full of concern.
"Well he wanted to come. He was sleeping so soundly and he needs the rest. I'll be okay. Wade will probably be disappointed but I'll be fine. Won't take me ten minutes, I stay fairly packed. Just small things to gather up. You guys go on, I'll be fine," Adam said with confidence.
Shawn and Hunter watched as Adam entered the hotel and got into the elevator. A cold shiver went down Shawn's spine. He had a horrible feeling that things wouldn't go well for Adam.
"I'm going after him Paul. Something isn't sitting right," Shawn said as he entered the hotel.
"Hang on there sexy boy. Adam is an adult, he's also a strong wrestler, he can take care of himself. He'll call if he needs us. I'm hungry. Let's go clean up for breakfast," Hunter said firmly.
Shawn smiled and nodded. Hunter was right, Adam was a big boy. Shawn would later regret his actions. If only he'd insisted on going with Adam.
Chris woke up with a start. He'd had a horrible nightmare. Adam was in danger and he couldn't get to him to help. He found the note. Terror struck his heart.
"ADAM" he cried out into the empty room.
