Hurricane smiled at the hotel receptionist when she also smiling took his
room key and handed him a key for Kane's room. "There you are sir, room
100." She swept a stand of black hair out of her face with a flick of her
right hand. "Have a lovely evening sir and don't forget that the bar is
open until one o'clock this evening."
"I won't forget, thanks. Good evening." Shane smiled at her and headed away towards the elevator. He stepped into the elevator and pushed the button for the third floor. 'Maybe me and Kane could go for a drink there later' Shane raised his eyebrows and laughed out loud, causing all the other people in the elevator to stop their separate conversations and stare at him. He coughed and scratched his head, his cheeks reddening slightly.
The receptionist gazed dreamily after Shane as he walked towards the elevator and continued to do so even after he had gone. A voice brought her out of her daydream.
"You're wasting your time looking in that way at guys like that." She looked up at the tall blonde man stood in front of her. She strained her eyes to try and see his face but his hair covered it.
"What do you mean 'guys like that'?"
"You are totally clueless aren't you? He shook his head and sighed, "He doesn't drive on the same side of the road as us, do you understand?"
"Is he British? I thought he was from North Carolina?" She looked at the man with a very confused look in her eyes.
"No! Look he's gay!!"
"No way! You're lying to me aren't you?" She stood up and glared at the man, "I don't believe you. I don't even know who you are."
"Hey don't get mad at me, I don't care whether you believe me or not. I was just trying to warn you, I won't next time." The blonde man turned and walked towards the bar. The receptionist stared after the man and bit her lip. She knew she had recognized the voice but she wasn't sure who it was, the only thing she did notice was that the man was a wrestler and since she rarely saw Smackdown she was certain he was on Raw.
The elevator doors opened to allow access to the third floor. Shane hoisted his bag onto his back and walked down the hallway towards his room. He put the key into the lock and opened the door.
"Kane? You here?" No answer. Shane dumped his bag on the floor and groped the wall for the light switch. He found it and flicked on the light. He quickly glanced round the room and noticed that Kane's bag was on his bed, but there was no sign of Kane himself.
"Where could he be?" Shane clicked his fingers, "Of course, the bar!" He switched off the light and closed the door behind him.
Shane had just walked out of the elevator and was heading straight for the bar. He stood at the entrance and looked around to see if Kane was there. It wasn't hard to spot Kane sitting at the far end of the bar next to RVD. Shane bit his lip and silently wondered what they were talking about. Shane hoped for Kane's sake that Rob wasn't the man they were looking for; otherwise things were going to get messy. But Shane couldn't take any chances. He thought for a moment and grinned, he knew the perfect way to eavesdrop and for them not to notice.
Kane followed Rob into the bar and sat besides him on the end barstool. Kane turned to look at Rob, his right arm rubbing against the wall.
"So dude, what do you want to drink?" Rob grinned at Kane, hoping for a good reaction, but all he got from Kane was a shrug and whatever you're having. Rob turned back to the bar and tried to get a bartenders attention.
Bartender Shane chucked to himself on a plan well thought of. No one would suspect the innocent bartender to be the superhero Hurricane. He walked over to Rob and smiled cheerily, "Yes sir what can I get you?"
"Two Tia Maria's with coke please." Rob never even gave the bartender a second glance.
"Since when did you drink that?" Kane frowned and looked at him questioningly.
"Well, maybe now's a good time to start." He laughed and put the money on the counter. Rob may never have thought that the bartender looked familiar, but Kane did.
"Hey!" He called to Shane, "have we met before, its just that you remind you of some one."
"No! I get that a lot, ya know. I guess I just have one of those faces."
"Oh okay." Kane nodded and went back to his drink.
"Phew!" Shane wiped his forehead and breathed out heavily. 'That was a close one. I better be more careful from now on!' He knew that Kane would not be happy if he found Shane disguised as a bartender just to eavesdrop on his and Rob's conversation.
A few hours later Kane and Rob got up and left the bar. Shane sighed and looked at the clock. 'Well, that was a waste of three hours. At least Kane's alright, but I still don't trust Rob.' Shane waited a couple of minutes and headed back to his room.
"Hey, where have you been all night?" Kane asked Shane as he heard the sound of a key turning in the lock and the door opening behind him.
"No where really. Just outside to stretch my legs a bit."
"Well you know you shouldn't go off on your own like that. That weirdo might get you again and I don't want that to happen again, so next time tell me and I'll go with you okay?" Kane smiled warmly at Shane.
"Yeah and you be careful to."
Kane walked over to the smaller superhero and kissed him delicately on his lips. "So, we'll both have to be careful together then."
"I won't forget, thanks. Good evening." Shane smiled at her and headed away towards the elevator. He stepped into the elevator and pushed the button for the third floor.
