A/N: So I decided to give some credence to Paul not using the internet to find out Sonny was married before he got to Salem. If you're surprised by Will's dancing skills, remember him dancing with the stripper at the bachelor party ;) This chapter ended up writing itself and I was apparently just along for the ride. You will see a past Days' character from 2012 (Sorry to Neil fans; it's not Neil) and an important original character (OC) coming, but they're not in the picture yet. Until then, I give you Dave and Kyle…

Chapter 10

An hour later, Paul rejoined Will on the outside deck of the club at their table in the corner.

"So what was that? Like selfie number 10?" asked Will clearly humored.

"Hey, at least I was right about one thing. I haven't been signing autographs."

"Welcome to the 21st century. You know those are already all over the internet, right?"

"What?"

Will rolled his eyes. "Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram, Facebook, etc."

"You really think so? Already?"

"Phone apps, Paul." Will handed over his phone which was showing a picture of Paul with two gorgeous men on Instagram. "Do you even use your phone beyond talking, texting, and looking at sports stats?"

"Ha, ha. Very funny." Paul took a swig of his beer that was now room temperature and he grimaced slightly. "So, what happened to Dave and Kyle?"

"Dancing. Want to join them when you finish your drink?"

"We can right now, actually. This beer has gotten a little warm. I can throw your jacket in a locker if you'd like. I need to use the men's room anyway."

"Thanks, man."

Each guy went his separate way once returning to the inside of crowded club. Paul wondered how difficult it would be to find Will on the dance floor. As it turned out, it was Dave that he found standing at the edge of the crowd and before he had a chance to ask, Dave pointed at the cage. Paul's jaw dropped. First, it was from shock at seeing Will dancing seductively in it with Kyle. Next, he assumed Will must have been drinking more than he realized while he was spending time with fans.

"Damn it," muttered Paul. He was supposed to watch out over him. Dave looked at Paul with a smirk, but it went unnoticed because by that time Paul was only watching and thinking about how sexy Will looked. This crowd is going to be disappointed when they find out he's taken. The guy had moves! He wouldn't have guessed that.

As if reading Paul's mind, Dave spoke up. "Too bad he's married. I think Kyle would like to take him home."

"Not happening," Paul almost growled.

Dave only laughed. He and his best friend Kyle had a fun time getting to know a little bit about Will and Paul soon after they got there. There weren't any empty tables left on the deck and Kyle, the flamboyant extrovert, was bold enough to ask if Will and Paul would like some company.

Will and Paul learned that Dave and Kyle had been best friends since their Little League Baseball days. They didn't go to the same schools and their parents were always taking them here and there until they could drive. They both attended Michigan State majoring in Hotel and Restaurant Management and returned to the Chicago area to start a chain of bed and breakfasts together. Kyle had recently broken up with his boyfriend and Dave offered to go out and get drunk with him.

Dave and Kyle learned that Paul was the new face of Mad World's men's line and got some inside scoop on the new article coming out in Sonix Magazine. After explaining that Will's husband was out of town on business, Will had fun being the proud daddy by showing pictures of Ari on his phone.

"Don't worry. Their time in the cage is almost up."

"Have you ever danced in there?"

"No. I'm a decent dancer thanks to Kyle, but I'm not up for leading men on when I'm not interested."

"You have a boyfriend?"

"Girlfriend. You look surprised."

"You could have gone anywhere to support Kyle in his pursuit of getting drunk."

"Yeah, but the guy also needs to get laid. This is the place to be. Lots of gay men."

"Well, then he needs to stop hanging out with Will. He's not getting laid tonight."

"Are you sure that's what you want?"

"You've read the gossip."

"All over the internet for any sports fanatic to learn."

Paul closed his eyes and slightly shook head with it tilted up as if asking God why he allowed such professions like journalists and photographers to exist. He could have lived without knowing that was on the internet, no doubt with a thousand comments. This was the perfect example of why his manager encouraged his players not to spend time on the internet as a way to pass time… too many people with too many opinions on celebrities.

"He's lucky to have you as a friend."

"Trust me. The support goes both ways."

They saw Will and Kyle leave the cage, but it was a few minutes before they were in view again. A large group of dancers left the floor and Dave and Paul could see them dancing again.

Dave laughed. "It's MTV time. Let's go!"

"What the hell does that mean?" asked Paul as he followed Dave onto the dance floor toward Will and Kyle.

"Kyle's goal in life is to be in a music video. This…" Dave pointed at the other two men. "…is Kyle's latest routine that he's obviously talked Will into learning." Dave shook his head and rolled his eyes, but it was obvious that he was humored and even encouraged his best friend's dream.

Will immediately coaxed Paul into trying the dance moves, but Paul was very awkward and embarrassed because of it.

"Let's start with the basics. It starts with the hips. Watch me," instructed Will.

Paul was extremely turned on watching Will and wondered how to get out of there. Will held onto his hips and Paul gasped. Thankfully, it was too loud and Will was too drunk to notice.

"It's not twerking. It's like gliding. Think of it like sex."

"What did you say? Wait. No, I heard you." Paul was terribly flustered which was not something that often happened. Everything about the night was new.

"It's not a quickie jackhammer."

"You've had too much to drink, Will."

"Instead, think of it like making love in slow motion. Maybe we should ask the DJ to play the song."

"Oh my God! This song is just fine."

"If you think so." Will turned around quickly, looked over his shoulder and took Paul's hands in his and set them on his hips. "Watch and feel my hips and copy what I'm doing. When you've got the hang of it, we'll add the legs and then the arms."

Dave and Kyle were still nearby watching the scene unfold under the guise of Kyle teaching Dave his dance. Both were extremely curious about how the night would end for their new friends.
