Big thanks to every one who reviewed, thanks Elemental Gypsy for reviewing. I know you obviously like Michael and Rick fics. (winks)
Great. It was Eddy and Emily. Why did they have to come in?
"Hey Mike…you ok?" I hear Eddy say from behind me. I feel a hand on my shoulder and I flinch. Eddy let's go off me and I can feel him now in front of me. He tries to pry my hands from upon my face. He manages to and gasps to see my newly acquired wounds.
"Who did this to you?" He questioned.
I shake my head, I didn't want to say. I just…couldn't. I didn't want no more harm. Especially to one of my friends who might of went to face him for me. I knew that Eddy wouldn't stand a chance away. Rick was just too strong.
"Mike? Tell me? Who did this?"
"I have a pretty good guess. Rick right?" She hit the nail on the head.
"Was it Mike?"
I just nod silently, sniffing every so often.
"That son of a bitch! Wait till I see him!" Eddy growls. I could tell he was angry. Usually he never gets angry without a reason. And this was that time.
I get up slowly and grab Eddy by the shoulders, "Don't go after him or say anything please?"
He slaps my hands away, "Mike have you seen what the bastard has done to you!"
"Yeah, but he could've done worse,"
"Worse. You don't think that them on your face are minor wounds. Why stick up for him Mike? He's not worth your time or our time for that matter," Eddy grabs my collar. For some reason I close my eyes and go back to when Rick had me like this before the match. I don't know why but I liked it. The way I felt his breath on my jawline to hear his voice growling he would get me after the match.
"I'm not sticking up for him," I tell Eddy.
"Then why not tell a soul! For pete's sake come on man Mike. If I was you, I wouldn't get away with letting him beat me up,"
"Look, I'll get him back ok!" I slap Eddy's hand from my collar and look at him with my turquoise eyes.
"You had better," Yes, finally the end of the argument. I look up at Eddy with sorrowful eyes before he pulls me into a hug. I flinch when he touches my sore back but relax knowing I'm in safe arms. Emily joins in from the side and we cuddle into each other. We were the original All Starz. No one could stand in our way. Not even Rick.
Back at the hotel, Emily was lightly dabbing my wounds on my face. And Eddy was behind me massaging my back. I felt at ease now, my wounds didn't hurt as much as before, thank god.
"Michael, stay still will you," Though they did hurt when Emily put on the antiseptic. I whimper as it stings then slowly dies away. My back feels much better. Maybe I should tell Eddy to be a massager. I smirk at the thought.
After my curing from my true team mates I watch the TV with a mug of hot chocoate. (A/N: mmm, give me some) I sip at it every so often, while watching the channels flick from one to another. I look at Eddy with cut eyes, telling him to stop.
He does so, and lands on the sports channel. They were showing highlights of today's matches. There was me, clean and no wounds what – so – ever. And now, I'm a nervous wreck. Grr. There's Rick. Seeing his smirking face makes me angry as well as happy. For reasons unexplained.
"Ooh, there's that son of a bitch. You gonna get him back Mike?" Eddy turns to me with a high five. I slap his hand with mine and nod.
"That's ma boy," Eddy cuddles me into his side. At this moment in time I feel like drifting off. But Eddy moves.
Eddy yawns,"I'm going to bed you two. See you in the morning,"
"Wait for me Ed, I coming too," She follows him before turning back to face me, "You coming?"
"Nah. I'll just stay up for a little while,"
She nods and I see her disappear. Finally, I get some peace tonight. I decide to go out to the park. I need some fresh air.
I walked along and into the park's entrance and sit down on the nearest bench I can find. I wince at the slight pain in my back as I sit down but it steadily dies away. I let the wind blow through my hair. I felt tired but somehow I didn't actually feel like going to sleep. I don't why. Maybe I had something or someone dwelling on my brain.
I feel a tap on my shoulder from behind but I just stay still. The person comes into my view. I scowl when I see the white pants. He sits down beside me, I see his hand reaching for my face from the left but it stops before it could reach and it drops.
"Look, I'm sorry alright," I hear him say.
I don't say anything. I'm too shocked. Did I just hear the word sorry out of Rick's mouth? Or am I hearing things.
"Oi, did you hear me?"
"Yeah I did," I spit hastily back.
"Do you..?"
I cut him off before he can continue, "Yeah, I accept. Now go and get pissed,"
I can tell he is looking at me, "Nah, don't wanna tonight. Tournament's on the line,"
I look at him. I see a charming face other than what I saw today. I feel the decency to smile at him and he smiles back. He got up from the chair to look me straight in the eye. He starts to lean into me so I can feel his heated breath on my face.
I think he was scared. He didn't know how I would react. So he was taking it slow. To reassure him, I place a hand on his chest and grab his T-shirt trying to egg him on. He got the message and closed the gap between us. He lips felt ever so soft against mine, silky soft. I gave him permission to enter my lips. I moaned silently as his tongue searched my mouth. The bliss we experience only lasted a few minutes to say the least before Rick pulled back.
After that, he walked away from me. Was he trying to make me follow him? I did so, curious to know where the tall All Star was going. He disappeared round a corner and when I went round he had vanished.
"Rick!" I shout. Did he just use me? Or was there something more?
"What?"
I jump and turn round and there he is. He still was smiling at me. He leans down and places a kiss on my cheek.
"See ya, my little All Star,"
Oh my…god. I like the ending of this one than the last.
But I think it's a little OOC of Rick. :S
It doesn't end here though. I wouldn't dream of not adding a little lemon into it. :P
Just for the entertainment of my readers. :D
