Looking Cozy

Lita and Akasha met up with The Dudley Boyz and Stacey Keibler, Edge and Christian and The Hardy Boyz. Greeted with smiles, all of them got into their own and rented cars and drove to a particular club that was just for them for that night. Akasha hitched a ride with Matt, Jeff and Lita. She had planned to keep to herself but it was over an hour's drive into and across the city and she was sitting in the back with Jeff so soon enough the two were talking about all sorts of things from the crazy moves they do to about themselves. Towards the end of the trip Matt and Lita were joining in, giving bio's on themselves at Akasha's request. "Enough about us, what about you?" Lita asked, turning around a bit in her seat to face Akasha. She shrugged, "What's to know. Just a normal girl with a dream and a death wish." That got a laugh out of all of them. They were all the same. Every single one had chased their dream for a number of years, not to mentioned had death wishes. "So how old are you? Twenty-four, twenty-five?" Lita continued with the questions, "Twenty-two actually." "And you did independent wrestling since when?" Matt asked, "Since I was sixteen." Akasha replied, "What did your parents think?" He continued, "To be honest, my parents couldn't wait to get rid of me." "That's pretty harsh." Jeff said. Akasha shrugged, "I'm just glad they won't be seeing a cent of my pay." Akasha seemed pretty casual about the situation but Lita left the subject alone anyway. "So what are you planning to drink?" Lita asked with a laugh on the end, "Whatever I can get my hands on." Akasha replied, "What about you?" "Same." Lita replied. "Well it'll be everything in the bar considering that we're on the house all night." Matt added in. "Good thing." Jeff said.

Everyone had a great night and morning. A lot of other Superstars joined them during the night, many from Smack Down. Lita was plastered, Akasha had drank just as much but it seemed she handled her liquor a lot better then Lita. "You're not going to throw up in the car are you?" Matt asked as they all walked out the front door at about 4:30am. She shook her head, "I won't." She seemed to be alright never the less, just a little wobbly. "Hey guys, mind if I tag along? Edge is taking a taxi back to the hotel and I can't stand taxis!" Christian jogged towards the two as he asked his question. "Sure, no problem man. There's room for one more." Matt replied, "I'm designated driver so. no taxis here." He added in with a grumbled. Christian nodded, "I'm not a big drinker myself." He replied with a grin, "Sure Christian." Matt replied sarcastically, "Where's Jeff and Akasha?" Lita asked, stopping and looking around. "They said they'd be out in a minute." Matt replied, "They seemed pretty cozy in there." Christian said with a grin. "So did you and Stacey." Lita shot back. Christian stopped dead in his tracks, "I'm kidding." Lita quickly replied as she rolled her eyes at him. He had been right though, Akasha and Jeff had spent most of the night around each other. "See ya later Akasha, Jeff." Stacey said as the last of them walked outside. Her and D-Von headed for his rented car. Akasha and Jeff waved and then headed over to the others who had just made it to the car. "Thought we'd lost you two." Matt said as he opened the back door and Lita got in and over to the other side. "You want me in the front or back?" Christian asked Jeff, "Wherever you want man." Jeff replied. Christian eagerly got into the front seat, "After you." Jeff said to Akasha, she smiled and got into the middle seat. Jeff sat next to her and closed the door.

Matt headed for their hotel which was about ten minutes away, unfortunately there was a major traffic jam because of a car accident. There were people all over the side walk and street so Matt wound up his window, "What you do that for?" Lita groaned, enjoying the crisp air that was blowing onto her face in the back. "Remember the last time I left the window down in a traffic jam?" He asked, turning around a bit to her. "What?" Akasha asked curiously, "We were swamped by fans." Jeff answered, "These are tinted right?" Christian asked, pressing his face against it. "Yes they are." Matt replied with a laugh, imagining what his face must have looked like on the other side of the glass, "Looks like we're gonna be stuck here for ages." Christian grumbled, loud enough for all to hear. "Can I borrow your jumper?" Lita asked pointing to the green wool jumper across Akasha's lap, "Sure." Akasha replied, handing it to her. She balled it up and pressed it against the window and fell asleep. Akasha sighed at Lita, "What?" Jeff asked her quietly, "I planned on using that as a pillow." She replied with a slight laugh. There was a silence in the back before she continued, "Don't move Jeff." She said, "Huh, why?" He asked. Akasha didn't answer and placed her head on his shoulder. "Cause I still need a pillow." She replied, closing her eyes.
