Mike paced back and forth in his hotel room. He couldn't get the thought of what Jay had said to him out of his head. Was he in love with Aisleyne? Jay seemed to most definitely think so and the more he thought the about the more he seemed to think so too. Ash was his best friend. The only girl who he had really truly cared about. She was basically his whole life.
"Mike, what's wrong with you? These past few days you've been in a completely different world. Talk to me. I am your girlfriend you know!" Maryse smiled from where she was sat.
Mike groaned. He didn't want to talk to Maryse about this. She go insane. What was he even doing with Maryse if he liked Ash? He had always liked Maryse but now he was with her he didn't want her.. He wanted Ash but he couldn't because she now had Cody. If he hadn't been such a horrible friend to her then he might not have drawn Ash and Cody together.
Mike looked at Maryse. "Your right, we need to talk… I dunno if this is working out Maryse."
"What do you mean? I like you and you like me of course its working out! Don't be stupid Mike," Maryse glared at him. She wasn't going to take this easy.
"I don't want to be with you anymore. Im sorry.. I just cant do this."
"Do what?!" Maryse demanded.
"Try and kid myself anymore. Your not who I want anymore.. Your really beautiful and such a lovely person and any guy would be amazingly lucky to have you.. Just not me.." Mike sighed. Maryse picked her bag up and stormed out of the room.
"Now, I gotta try win back my best friend…" Mike groaned throwing himself down on his bed.
Jay walked down the corridor of the arena to see his sister and Cody in a make out session. He walked over and coughed causing the two of them to pull apart. Aisleyne turned to Jay.
"Oh sorry. Wow, this is awkward. Is there anything I can do you for bro?" Aisleyne's asked prying herself out of Cody's embrace.
"I just want a word with you about something if you don't mind?" Jay asked his little sister. She nodded at him and turned to Cody.
"Ill see you later.." She gave him a quick kiss and headed off with her brother. They walked into his locker room and he gestured for her to sit down.
"Have you spoke to Mike lately?" Jay asked her.
"Not recently. Well not since I told him about Cody and myself to be honest. Have you spoke to him?"
"Yes I have. I think maybe you two should make up if you've had some sort of argument. Its Monday night tonight isn't it? Movie night for you two?"
"We havent had an argument really. I dunno what's going on. I don't even know if we're still having movie night. I miss him, Jay."
"I know you do. Look, are you happy with Cody?"
"I am. I really like him Jay. He's so lovely.."
"Well as long as your happy I guess that's the main thing. I just worry you know.. You're my baby sister. I feel like I need to look after you all the time. I know I don't have to but I need to so that I can put my mind to rest," he sat down next to his sister and put an arm around her.
"I know Jay. I really appreciate it," Aisleyne hugged brother. Just as she was pulling away there was a knock on the locker room door and Mike peered his head round. Once he saw Ash he walked in and smiled.
"Sorry to interrupt but I'd really like a word with Ash, if you don't mind Jay?"
"Of course not buddy!" Jay patted Mike on the back as he bad his way out of the room.
Aisleyne stood up and folded her arms across her chest. She was happy to see Mike but at the same time annoyed that he hadn't spoke to her since she told him about the whole Cody thing. Mike placed his hands in his jeans pockets and looked at Ash.
"Im sorry about the other day, just walking out when you were telling me about you and Cody. It was really childish of me.. You're my best friend Ash I just want the best for you.." Mike looked back down at the ground. He really wanted to tell her how he really felt but she had Cody now and would laugh straight in his face.
"Mike I know. We cant keep having these silly little arguments about nothing all the time. What happened to us just laughing, joking and been childish like we used to be? What changed?" Aisleyne asked. Things had seem to have changed between them in the blink of an eye.
"I don't know. I want things to go back to normal Ash but I don't think they can anymore."
"Why cant they?"
"I have my reasons Ash, you trust me right?"
Aisleyne looked at Mike straight in the eyes. "I trust you more than I trust anyone else in the world."
"I broke up with Maryse.." Mike smiled slightly at his best friend. He knew she'd be happy about that.
"Oh why?" Aisleyne smiled brightly at him. Although she did want Mike to be happy, there was a part of her that was glad he wasn't with Maryse anymore.
Mike shuffled his feet a bit and looked back at Aisleyne. Should he tell her? If he did he could ruin their whole friendship. If he didn't he could lose her to Cody completely and that would tear him up inside. Mike sighed at looked at Aisleyne.
"I think I…." Mike started but as he did the locker room door opened and in walked Cody. He looked between the two and grimaced.
"Oh, sorry. I didn't think you were still in here Mike. I'll let you two carry on.." Cody smiled at the two of them.
"No, Cody its fine. We we're just finished," Mike started to walk away from Aisleyne when she grabbed his arm.
"Movie nights still on tonight though isn't it?" She asked. Mike looked at Cody then back at Ash.
"No, you should spend more time with Cody now. Don't worry about me Ash. I'll be fine." He gave her a kiss on the cheek and left the room.
Mike started walking down the corridor when he saw Jay stood in front of him with a sympathetic look in his eye.
"You didn't tell her?" Jay asked, feeling generally sorry for the younger man.
"I was about to just as Cody walked in. Maybe its for the best? She seems happy with Cody." Mike leaned against the walk and raked his hand through his hair.
"Look, I know yourself and I havent really got on much but your way better for Ash than Cody is.. Let me help you?" Jay offered.
Mike looked at Jay curiously. "You want to help me?"
"Yes. Id much prefer you dating my sister than Rhodes. Do you want my help or not?"
"Okay… I'll take it."
