WARNING: I TEND TO SWEAR A LOT. JUST BE PREPARED.
-----------
"Wait… Sterling." I whispered through the tears.
"He left, he wanted me to tell you goodbye." AJ said, putting his hand on top of mine. I looked down at his hand, and he immediately pulled it away, and started driving.
------------
For the next two days I didn't leave AJ's couch. He was understanding about it though, and was really cool about it. He sat and listened to me when I needed someone to talk to, He made me breakfast lunch and dinner, watched movies with me, and just let me cry onto his shoulder when I needed to. Chris came by a few times, and Sonjay even called to check up on me. But then, one day, it all changed.
-----
It was Tuesday afternoon, and me and AJ sat together watching some stupid daytime movie on TV, pigging out on ice cream at 11 in the morning.
"This isn't fair." I said, dropping my spoon into the half empty carton.
"What?" AJ asked through a mouthful of ice cream, making us both laugh.
"You get to eat what ever you damn want and you still have perfect abs!" I said, sticking my bottom lip out. AJ just laughed.
"So what's going on with you and Sterling?" AJ asked, when the movie cut off to a commercial. I looked up at him surprised. He hadn't really talked much, just listened.
"I'm not sure any more." I sighed. "Last I knew we were going out. But after what happened Sunday who knows. He hasn't called me yet, and he wont answer his phone. So I honestly don't know." I shrugged.
"Don't take this the wrong way, but what the hell do you see in that guy?"
"Stop asking such hard questions." I said half joking.
"Fine then, describe to me your perfect man." He said, lowering his gaze to meet mine.
I shot him a confused look with a half smile.
He just laughed, "Come on, don't act like you haven't thought about it before. When you were a little girl, you dreamed of your wedding day right? You walked down the isle in your beautiful white dress, closest friends and family looking upon you with smiles. Who was waiting for you at the end of that isle?"
"Ha, okay. Um, lets see." I said closing my eyes. "He, he has a great body, well defined abs, not to ripped, but defined. Good sense of humor knows how to take care of me, will always be there for me no matter what, someone I know inside and out, who's always there to cheer me up, or even just for a hug. Knows how to cook, somewhat good at dancing, but not better than me…"
As I was describing, AJ stopped me, and as he put his finger to my lips. My eyes opened, to see him only inches from my face. I looked at him as he slowly got closer and closer, eyes still locked on mine. When he finally lowered his finger, letting his hand rest on my hip.
"AJ, what are you doing?" I whispered.
"I don't know." He said, his breath hot against my face, as his hand ran from my hip down to my leg.
"AJ, I.." I started to say, but before I could, he locked into a soft kiss. At first I tried to resist, but I couldn't. I gave in. My shoulders slumped slightly and I allowed him to deepen the kiss, my arms making their way to his arms, then across his shoulders, and finally around his neck.
He left one hand on my leg, and put the other one behind my back, gently easing me down onto the couch.
As my shoulders came to rest on the couch, I pushed him away slightly.
"AJ, I cant." I said, my face still only inches from his. He sighed and lowered his head, this time laying his soft lips onto my neck.
"Don't fight it Adri. We both want it." He said as I let out a soft moan.
He was right. Even though I was with Sterling, I wanted this right now. It made me feel like a horrible person inside, but I wanted AJ.
"AJ, I'm sorry, I cant do this." I said, pushing him away once again, this time sitting up.
"Adri, listen to me. You don't want him. We need each other." AJ said, his eyes almost pleading with me.
"AJ, I.."
"Don't say you cant." He interrupted me. "Adri, just listen to me for a minute. Please." He said, his voice barely above a whisper.
"I love you." He said, "Just give me a chance. Let me kiss you one more time, if you honestly don't feel anything, then fine, I wont ever bother you again, but if you do feel something, please Adri, just give me a chance." He said, inching closer to my face once more.
I let him kiss me. As soon as we touched, I felt like I was weightless. Every part of me felt like it would just melt away. I wrapped my arms around his neck again to keep me upright, running my hands through his short hair.
He put his hands on my stomach and pushed me away gently, staring deep into my eyes, waiting for my answer.
I opened my mouth, and shut it again, unable to form words. I lowered my hands from around his neck, and looked down at the floor.
"I'm sorry." I whispered, before I got up and ran out of the apartment.
----
"Alex, please Alex open the door." I yelled through tears as I stood outside Alex Shelley's apartment, banging loudly on the door. "Alex, please." I pleaded. As I did the door jerked open.
"Phili! What's wrong?" He asked pulling the tshirt on over his head
I just cried, and my knee's buckled beneath me. Luckily though Alex caught me. Holding me close to him, I cried heavily into his shoulder.
"What's wrong baby?" He asked, pushing me away from his chest a little, so he could look me in the eye.
I opened my mouth to talk, but I couldn't and just cried harder. Alex picked me up and brought me inside the apartment, setting my gently on his couch.
"Adri, I cant help you unless you tell me what's wrong."
I choked back some tears, enough so I could say.
"I….I'm a horrible person." Was all I could get out before I busted into tears again.
Alex wasn't really sure what to do, so he just sat there next to me, rubbing my back until I finally stopped crying.
----
"You look great." Chris Sabin said with a smile as I stepped out of the locker room bathroom in my ring attire. I really didn't want to have to face AJ yet, so I opted to dress with Chris and Alex and Sonjay.
" You really do look amazing sweetie." Alex said, coming up to me and giving me a hug.
"Thanks Alex, but your still not getting any."
Alex sighed defeated and stomped over to the bench. Chris and Sonjay laughed.
"Hey, Adri can I talk to you for a minute?" Sonjay asked, still laughing as Alex pouted like a child on the other side of the locker room. I smiled and walked over to the corner with him to talk.
"What's up Sonj?" I asked, once we were out of earshot of Chris and Alex.
"Its about the other night. I know that we have never really been close, but I want you to know I will always be there for you." He said, blushing slightly.
I smiled and gave him a quick hug.
"Thanks Sonjay." I said as he returned the hug.
We were interrupted when there was a knocking at the locker room door.
"Hey Daniels what's up?" I heard Chris say as he opened the door.
"Hey, have you seen Adri?" Daniels voice came from behind the door.
"Yah man, she's right here." Chris said, opening the door wider so Chris could see where I was standing with Sonjay
"Hey kid." He smiled "We need to talk." He said, jerking his head slightly towards the other side of the door. I said by to Sonjay and Alex, and hugged Chris on my way out of the door.
"What's up Angel Bear?" I said, as we walked down the hall towards the main arena.
"AJ told me what happened." He said, watching closely for my reaction.
I didn't answer, just stopped walking and stared intently at the ground.
"You really didn't see this coming?" He asked, lifting my chin up to look at him.
I shook my head slightly, not sure what he was talking about.
"AJ's had feelings for you since he met you. He was heartbroken when you left. We all where. Now he is worried sick that he's chased you away again. You don't have to have feelings for him kid, you just cant leave us again." He said, lowering his hand.
"Its…just…its, when he kissed me, I did feel something." I said, my eyes lowering again.
"Oh…." Daniels said shocked.
"I've fallen for a friend once, and that turned out to be a living hell." I sighed
I raised my head again looking Chris straight in the eyes as tears began to form.
"I don't want to hurt anymore." I said, as the tears began to fall.
Chris reached out and pulled me into his arms, holding me tight.
"I wish I could make the pain go away sweetie, I really do. But your gonna have to face him sooner or later." He said, still holding me against him.
"I don't want to lose him. I don't want to lose you. I have lost everyone Chris, I cant do this anymore." I said as the tears grew steadier.
"You wont ever lose me. And AJ loves you to much to let you go." Chris said, rubbing my back, trying his best to make me feel better.
"Um Chris…" Came a voice from behind us. I pulled away from Chris to see a worried Chase Stevens looking at us.
"What's up Chase?" Daniels said, one arm still around my shoulder.
"Um, I just came from Larry's office, he wants to see you two." He said, still looking straight at me.
"What were you doing in Larry's office?" Chris asked curiously.
"Andy got suspended." Chase said, lowering his gaze to the floor.
"Oh, Chase, im sorry man." Chris said, squeezing me tighter as I tensed at the mention of Andy's name.
"Don't be, he needs a break. Clear his head." Chase nodded, before turning and walking away without even saying goodbye.
----
"Hey Larry." Chris said, ushering me through the door."
"Daniels, Phili, great for you to join us." Larry said. At first I was confused until I saw AJ sitting in front of Larry's desk. I stopped dead in my tracks, but Daniels just pushed me forward. He sat in-between me and AJ, and then Larry begin talking.
"Well first of all I want to congratulate you three on winning the titles." Larry said with a faked smile.
"And, management has been reviewing the tapes from the PPV, and have to decided to put AJ and Phili together as a couple in your guys storyline."
My heart stopped in my throat, and AJ gripped his chair a little tighter.
Daniels eyes went from AJ, back to me, before finally resting on Larry.
"That all?" He asked
"Yes, at least for now. Besides you three need to get to the company meeting." He said, standing up from his desk.
----
We got all the way to the door of our locker room before I stopped walking and stood right in front of AJ.
"You had something to do with this." I accused angrily
"To do with what?" He asked
"You know god damn well what!" I screamed, anger growing inside me.
"I told you. I cant do this. But you just wouldn't listen." I said, my voice still as loud.
"You really think I would do that?" He asked, a look of hurt coming over his face. "I told, if you didn't feel anything fine, we can go back to how we used to be." He said, his voice raising a little to.
"That's bullshit and you know it!" I screamed a little bit louder "We can never go back. You screwed that up today AJ, we cant go back anymore!"
"Guys come on…" Daniels said stepping in between us.
"Stay out of this Chris." Me and AJ spat simultaneously.
Daniels steeped back a defeated look on his face, and crossed his arms, as me and AJ went at each other some more.
"You knew that I was with Sterling! You knew it AJ, and you kissed me anyway!"
"But you don't want him." AJ said, his face softening to the same look he had given me on his couch.
"AJ, don't do this." I said lowering my voice.
"Look me in the eye Adri, and tell me you love him." He said, taking a step closer to me.
"What the hell do you want me to say AJ? Your right okay. I do have feelings for Sterling, but I have stronger feelings for you. Is that what you want? Do you want me to tell you that when we were on the couch, it tore my heart in pieces to tell you no. But I am to god damn afraid to lose you, that I couldn't say yes. Is that what you want? Huh? You want me to say all I thought about since it happened, was being able to kiss you again? Because its all god damn true AJ. Is this what you wanted?" I asked, tears beginning to form again in my eyes.
"Adri, I just want you." He said, stepping closer to me, that I could feel his warm breath against my skin, sending skivers down my spine. "I always have. Your all I ever wanted. I want you to be happy." He said, beginning to lower his head toward mine.
I stuck my hands onto his chest and pushed him away.
"Don't lie to me. If that where true you wouldn't be doing this." I said
"Stop fighting it Adri, just let it be." He said, before locking his lips on mine.
"Hellcat?" Came a voice from behind me. I whipped around to see Sterling standing behind me, hurt etched into his face.
"Sterling I…." I tried to explain.
"Don't." He said his face quickly turning from hurt to angry. "Were done." He said flatly, and then walked away.
I couldn't help myself, I just bawled, as I slid down the wall and buried my head in my knees.
Chris slid an arm under my leg, and another one behind my back and picked me off the floor, standing me back up next to him. I leaned against his chest and cried for the millionth time. After a few minutes I gained some of my composure back, and turned to AJ, who stood behind us.
"This is your fault!" I yelled. "You screw everything up! Why couldn't you just leave me alone?" I screamed, before pulling back and slapping him hard across the face.
"Adri I'm s…" He started to say, but I slapped him again.
"Don't apologize to me. I hope you choke on your words and die." I screamed before slapping him again. AJs head whipped to the side, and he left it there for a second, before turning his piercing blue eyes back to me. He opened his mouth to say something, and I reared up to slap him again, but he caught my wrist. He wrapped his other arm around my waist and pulled me to him. When he released my hand, I pounded on his chest trying to get away from him, but he just held on tight. I realized this wasn't getting me anywhere, and I just collapsed against his chest. He wrapped his arms around me tighter, as I clung to him.
I blinked back some of my tears and looked back up at him.
"Why does it always have to hurt?" I asked, trying my best to hold back the tears.
"Its doesn't sweetie. That's what I am trying to show you. I wont ever hurt you. I promise you that." He said, before lowering his head and wrapping me up into another kiss. Just like before, the weightless feeling returned, and I clung tighter to him. He moved his kisses from my lips to my neck, which only made me feel like I was melting into his body. I brought him back to my lips, as my hands began to slide up his shirt.
"Um, guys… get a room." Chris laughed from behind us, opening the locker room door.
Me and AJ still clung to each other, as he backed me back through the door, and Chris closed it behind us. AJ backed me up gently to the locker, so that he had my body pressed between him and the locker. My hands continued up his shirt, touching his well defined stomach.
Then, AJ stopped. He pulled away just slightly, his hands on the locker front, on either side of my head.
"Adri, I love you." He said, his breath warm against my neck, before he began kissing it again.
"I love you to AJ." I said, making him stop again.
"What?" I asked, looking into his piercing blue eyes.
"I, its just, you don't know how long I've waited for you to say that." He said with a smile, before he locked me into another deep kiss. It was a good thing there was a locker behind me, or my knees may have buckled beneath me. This time, my hands wrapped around the ends of AJ's shirt, pulling it over his head. He only broke the kiss for a quick second as the collar passed over his head. I wrapped my arms around his now bare chest.
We both groaned as there was a knocking at the door, and Daniels yelled
"COME ON YOU TWO, WE HAVE TO GET TO THE MEETING."
AJ slipped his shirt back over his head, and smiled at me. I smiled back at him, as he placed an arm around my waist, and I slipped my hand into the back pocket of his jeans.
-----
Once everyone was settled in through out the pit, Dixie began to talk.
"You all can hear me right?" She said as she leaned against the ropes.
"What are we going to say Dixie… no?" Alex laughed from a the seat behind were me and AJ were sitting, his foot resting on the top of AJ's chair. Dixie shot him a glare and he just kept on smiling
"I called you all here to talk about our next live event. As you know, we have been doing live events in different locations for almost a year now."
"Nah I hadn't noticed." Alex chuckled Dixie shot him another glare that didn't seem to phase him at all.
"This time, we are headed out about as far as we can go in the US, up to Tacoma Washington."
My heart almost stopped. I sat up straighter.
"Wait, what did you say?" I asked before I even realized I was talking.
"Tacoma Washington." Dixie repeated a little louder.
"Fuck." I muttered under my breath, before putting my head into my hands.
"Is there a problem?" Dixie asked.
"Oh no, that's her happy reaction." Alex said slyly. This time before Dixie even had a chance to look at him I grabbed his foot and flipped him over backwards in his chair. A few of the boys clapped, but most just laughed. Alex got up, his face burning red, sat back down in his chair, slightly slouched and didn't talk again.
"No Dixie, its fine, just… eh, long story. But it'll be fine." I said, trying to force a smile.
Dixie smiled to and started talking about some other stuff that I wasn't really listening to, I was to caught up about what she had said. Pretty soon Dixie had dismissed us, and we all started filling out of the main part of the arena towards the locker rooms. Daniels and AJ and me, went with Alex towards his locker room. Upon arrival we found Chris and Sonjay already there. I didn't really care, I just sat down next to Chris on the bench and placed my head in my hands once again.
"What's wrong babe?" Alex asked, kneeling down in front of me.
"Uh it's a long story." I said, running my hand through my shoulder length hair.
"We've got time." The soft voice of Sonjay came from next to me. I smiled up at him. It was almost impossible to not love him.
I took a deep breath before I started to explain.
"Alex why did I come to Can Am?" I asked.
"Um, you had always wanted to wrestle, so you moved up there after you graduated high school, to start training."
"Well, that's um, partly true." I said beginning to rub my temples.
Alex raised his eyebrow slightly, wanting me to go on.
"When I was 17 years old I flunked out of high school. My parents were beyond pissed. I was supposed to be the first one in my family to go to college, since my older brother and sister had opted to go straight into the work field. When I flunked, oh wow were they mad. It wasn't pretty. It turned my friends against me too. They hated me. Why I'm not sure, but they did. I had always hated the town I grew up it. It was a tiny hick ass town no one had ever heard of, but they were constantly trying to make look better. A year after I was born the started "renovating" the city. Its still under construction today. I had always hated living there. Since the time I was 12 I kept a bag packed under my bed, because I knew one day they would push me over the edge, and I could just leave no questions asked. Climb out the bedroom window, down onto the top of my brothers van, over the neighbors fence, through the back lot of the church, cross the street, turn right, go straight take a left, and I was at the nearest bus stop that would take me to the train station. I started saving up money then too, so I would have income if I ever did have to leave. The only thing that really ever held me down there, was my friends. They were my life. So when they turned on me, as did my family, I took off. I left a note that told them where I was going to stay in Canada, and even said I took my cell phone with me. No one called. No one came. I haven't spoken to my family since. I spent a year helping at Storm wrestling Academy. Cleaning the rings, doing laundry, grocery shopping, the demeaning stuff. When I had enough money to start my training, I came to Can Am. By that time, I was old enough to have graduated high school, and so that's what I told you guys." I said, bringing my story to an end.
"I'm confused." Sonjay said softly. "What does this have to do with the show?"
"My house was 10 miles away from Tacoma. And my father hasn't missed a live wrestling event in almost… eh, 23 years. Yah that's about right. They sat ringside once, my mom and dad. Paul Orndorf landed in my moms lap." I said. Staring off into space.
"It'll be okay kid, I really don't think your parents will hold grudges for that long."
I couldn't help but laugh.
"They day I left my dad was yelling at me about the championship game I missed that his team played in." I said
"So…?" Alex asked confused.
"I was 4 when it happened." I said.
"Oh," Everyone in the room said collectively.
"Yah, that's my family."
"Babe everything's gonna be okay." AJ said with a smile, planting a soft kiss on my lips. Alex Chris and Sonjay looked at us in shock, and I just smiled, before pulling AJ into another kiss.
The three looked at Daniels for an explanation, but he just shrugged with a wicked smile.
"Daniels, we need to talk." Alex said. I broke the kiss and looked over at him, to see a very worried look on his face. I sighed and watched him leave with Daniels.
------------
Daniels P O V
-----------
"Daniels what the fuck!" Alex yelled, once we were alone in a back deserted corner.
"What's your dysfunction?" I asked, confused
"how could you let them get together man. You know about Sterling."
"First of all, AJ is my best friend, not my son. I cant control what he does. And Sterling dumped her."
"He did what!" Alex asked, his voice raising.
"Yah, her and AJ got in a fight earlier, and it somehow turned into AJ kissing her, and as he did, Sterling walked by. He saw everything." I shrugged.
"WHAT THE FUCK!" Alex screamed louder still.
"Dude what's the big deal? I knew you liked her, but I didn't know it was that much." I said, my eyes narrowing at Alex.
"Its not that, I don't like her man. Its Petey. I don't think he can take much more man. He is head over heels for her, but he's always stuck in the best friend role. First Sterling, and now this, its not gonna be good man." Alex sighed, running a hand through the blonde side of his hair.
"Well, last I heard, he was pissed off at her, because of Sterling. That's why she was at AJ's house for three days. That's why he made a move. So its his own fault." I shrugged.
Alex narrowed his eyes at me.
"Look, Adri's happy, isn't that what's important?" I asked.
Alex sighed and nodded, and I walked away.
-------------
"Adri, hun its time to go." AJ said, knocking softly on the bathroom door inside him and Chris's locker room. I smiled and opened the door. AJ smiled at me and wrapped me into a kiss. I wrapped my hands around his neck and kissed him back.
"Uh, are you two gonna make out every time you see each other?" Daniels asked.
Me and Aj both nodded are heads at the same time, causing Daniels to roll his eyes. Me and AJ laughed, before he wrapped an arm around my waist, as did I, and walked towards the face tunnel.
We got there just as Chris and Sonjay where coming back up the ramp from their tag team match.
"Good job out there guys." I said, giving them both smiles. They still eyed me and AJ carefully before smiling back and wishing us good luck.
"Uh, stupid cufflinks." Daniels grumbled from beside me, trying to adjust the sleeve of his black button up shirt.
I smiled and grabbed his wrist, pulling his hand towards me, and fixing his sleeves for him.
Daniels smiled at me before putting his arm around my shoulder and turning to AJ.
"You're a lucky man Styles." He said, giving my shoulder a quick squeeze before letting me stand back next to AJ, as his music started to play.
"Guess I am going first." He smiled, before giving me a quick kiss and walking up the tunnel. We heard the cheers from the crowd get louder, and watched as his pyro died down. Then we turned our attention towards the monitors and watched as AJ picked up a microphone and headed into the ring. Once he rolled in, he adjust the title on his shoulder before raising the mike to his mouth to introduce Daniels.
Daniels music rang out thought the arena as he ran up the tunnel onto the stage. I couldn't help but smile to see how much fun they were having, and to see the crowd enjoying it too.
Chris took the mike from AJ and started to thank the fans for their support. I would have listened closer, but just as he began to talk, there was a hand placed on my shoulder that made my attention turn away.
"Hi." Petey said sheepishly as he pulled his hand away quickly, almost looking like he regretted saying anything to me.
"Hi." I answered back flatly.
"I, I just wanted to tell you congratulations, and I am sorry, and you look great tonight." He said, lifting his gaze from the floor to my eyes.
I nodded and opened my mouth to say something, but as I did the familiar notes to "Animal I have Become" by three days grace rang through the arena, signaling my entrance.
"I have to go." I said just as flatly as before, and turned and walked up the ramp. I paused before I got into view and took a deep breath, forgetting everything that had happened in the last two years. None of it mattered. I was home. I looked up the tunnel, a smile on my face, and walked proudly onto the stage. The crowd went nuts.
I cant explain that feeling, where you know you have so many people behind you, that care about you. it's a completely unique experience.
"Lady's and Gentleman, my favorite girl, and yours too, Phili Wilson!" AJ's voice came through the speakers. I smiled and walked down the ramp towards the ring, slapping as many hands as I could on the way. When I reached the ring Chris and AJ where both sitting on the second rope opening them for me. I smiled and quickly jumped in, wiggling my hips a little in front of AJ as I did. He just smiled and Chris rolled his eyes.
I posed a little for the crowd before taking the mike from AJ.
"Wow." was all I could manage to say, which surprisingly made the crowd cheer.
"You guys are amazing. Each and everyone of you. I want to thank you guys for all your support." I said, pausing as the crowd began chanting welcome back.
"Thank you, really, but I am not the reason we are out here." I said, running my hand down AJ's back.
"These two, are the reason we are out here, ladies and gentleman, your tag team champions, AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels." I said, as they both raised there titles in the air.
I opened my mouth to say something, but I was interrupted by Team Canada's music. I looked over at AJ, and he just shrugged, as confused as I was.
"Cut the music. CUT THAT MUSIC!" Came the angry voice of Scott D'Amore over the loud speakers.
"Well if it isn't Phili Wilson, isn't this just like a happy family reunion." D'Amore said with a wicked smile across his lips. "You two having the titles is the biggest load of crap I have ever seen!" D'Amore continued. "Its just proves again how much…" He started to say before i interrupted him.
"If you say how much management is against you Scott, I swear to god I am gonna hurl. They won these titles because they deserve them." I said, as D'Amore glared at me.
"Shut up you stupid little whore, no ones talking to you." D'Amore shot at me, leaving me shocked.
"You watch your god damned mouth!" AJ screamed grabbing the mike out of my hands, without me even realizing.
"What are you gonna do pretty boy? You gonna hurt me?" D'Amore asked
AJ made a move to step through the ropes to go after D'Amore but I stopped him.
"Adri, he isn't getting away with talking to you like that!" AJ yelled as I clung to his shirt.
"AJ, when is the last time you saw D'Amore go anywhere without the rest of the team?" I asked, before ducking just in time to avoid the chair Bobby Roode was swinging at my head. Unfortunately AJ didn't see it in time, and he took the full force of the blow intended for me.
"AJ!" I screamed as he hit the mat.
"Go!" He said, brushing some of the blood that was falling from his eyes. "Don't get involved in this, go to the back." He said, looking over at chris, who was being strangled on the middle rope by Eric Young.
"No." I said flatly, "I am not leaving you guys, I know them better than anybody, I can help."
"
You'll hurt
yourself! Go to the back!" Aj ordered.
"No. I am nto leaving you!" I yelled back before standing up at tapping Bobby on the shoulder, as he was kicking Chris in the ribs. HE turned around just as I jumped into the air, and kicked him with my good foot, making him stumble a little bit but not knock him completely down. I ran towards the ropes the best I could to bounce off them, but as I did, I was hit in the back by a hockey stick by Scott.
The crowd booed, but then began to cheer. I looked up to See Chris getting the upper hand on Eric, only to be stoped by a steel chair to the back.
There was a sudden mix of cheers and boo's, as Petey came running down the ramp.
He slid expertly into the ring, and shot me a look, his eyes close to tears. Then he turned and kicked AJ hard in the ribs. One kick after another he wore AJ down.
"Petey stop it!" I yelled, getting to my knees.
"Adri, please." He said, turning to look at me.
"I don't want to hurt you. Please just stay down." He pleaded. I didn't listen, I got up and pushed him, before lowering myself, covering AJ.
"Adri please, just move." He begged.
"Fuck off." I shot back "You want to hurt him then you hurt me."
Petey looked at me with sad eyes, and opened his mouth. I never heard his answer. Before he could say anything Eric hit me in the head with a chair, knocking me unconscious.
------------
I sat bolt upright, only to regret that decision as a splitting pain went all through out my body.
"Easy there sweetie." Came areasuring voice from beside me. I turned to see Sonjay, with a weak smile on is lips. He slowly eased me back down onto the table in the trainers room.
"What the hell happened?" I asked barely above a whisper because my throat was so dry.
"You got whacked pretty good with a chair. He said, handing me a glass of water, which I gladly took, as he helped me sit up slowly to drink it. I gulped the whole thing down in one swig.
"Got anything stronger than this?" I asked with a weak smile, before laying back down.
"WHERE THE HELL IS SHE!" Came a screaming voice from outside the door.
"I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU DON'T LET ME IN THAT GOD DAMNED ROOM I WILL RIP YOUR HEAD OF YOUR SKINNY LITTLE NECK!" The voice screamed again, before the door opened, revealing a very angry looking Alex Shelley.
"Who the fuck did you get in here?" Alex shot at Sonjay, who just shrugged. Then Alex turned his attention to me.
"Adri are you okay?" He asked, coming right next to ma and grabbing my hand in his.
"Oh yah, just great." I said, before laying back down and shutting my eyes. Alex laughed a little and brushed some of the hair out of my face.
" I swear to god I will kill D'Amore." Alex said angrily. "He knows your hurt but he sent them out there to hurt you anyway." He said through gritted teeth.
"Alex don't bug out." I said with a laugh. "I deserved it anyway." I sighed.
Alex just shook his head at me, not sure what to say.
"Uh guys little help here?" Came Daniels voice from the doorway.
Sonjay ran over to help him carry what looked like an unconscious Aj over to the table next to me.
"Is he okay?" I asked, sitting upright, slower this time.
"Yeah he's fine." Daniels sighed. "Few stitches and a bruised rib, they have him on Tylenol 3's, so he is a little out of it." He said before jumping up on the table at AJ's feet.
"What about you?" I asked, eying the Band-Aid on his forehead.
"Just a cut." He shrugged.
"How long till he wakes up?" I asked, turning my attention back to AJ.
"About a half an hour." Daniels sighed, before getting up of the table and coming to give me a hug.
"I'm gonna go take a shower, come get me when he's up okay?" I nodded and hugged him back.
------------
I stopped AJ outside of his apartment later that night, as I gently shoved him against the wall carefully avoiding his sore ribs, and pulled his head down to me. I kept one hand on the back of his head, as my other one rested on his hip. His hands slowly raised till they were both on my face.
"Lets get inside first Hun." He laughed, unlocking the door quickly, before picking me up. I wrapped my legs around his waist, and leaned down to kiss him again, as he awkwardly shut the door behind him.
We both laughed a little before AJ laid me down on the couch, in almost the same position we were earlier that day.
Once I was fully down on the couch, he pulled away.
"You hungry?" He asked, awkwardly. I laughed a little and nodded.
"Good, make us something to eat while I take a shower." He said with a smile before running away to dodge the pillow I threw at his head.
I sighed and walked up to his kitchen and quickly made to peanut butter sandwiches. I laid them out on the counter and then sat back down on the couch. I stretched out on the couch and let out a slow yawn, as my eyelids began to get heavy.
--------
I woke up the next morning, to find me and AJ laying together on the couch, his arms wrapped around my waist, and mine hands gently laid upon his shoulders.
"Mornin' sweetie." He said with a smile, before planting a soft kiss on my lips.
I smiled back up at him. "I feel asleep didn't I?" I laughed, laying my head against his bare chest.
He laughed too and nodded his head, his chin resting on top of my head, as I snuggled closer to him.
"Your head feeling better?" He asked, wrapping his arms tighter around me.
"Yeah, a little how bout you?" I asked.
Aj just shrugged "Been better, but then again I have been worse."
I nodded and locked him in another kiss, my arms moving from his shoulders up to around his neck.
