takers dark lover, yeah, it is a bitch (the gum thing has happened to me before, not fun) But at least Addy had Randy to help him out ;) LegacyChick, Redge cuteness is always sweet :P QueenofYourWorld, actually, my Jeff muse lemme do those and start 'Destroyed Innocence' on the conditions that I wrote a couple Jedam one shots. Now he's bugging me to get those done. No, not a Sheamus muse, lol. It'd cause uber complications. See, my Dean Winchester muse is convinced Sheamus is a ghost.. or something like that.. I'm updating.. Esha Napoleon and redsandman99, thank you, XD. JoMoFan-spot, I know. I haven't gotten to work on the LJ community enuff to build it up. I dunno where the bubblegum even came from. I wasn't chewing it at the time and I don't chew it often. I like it, but not obsessively. For some reason I like a cute Addy, and I love when Randy's sweet w/ him. It seems to just work for me. Awe, Randy couldn't resist having a good chuckle at his baby. Y'know, he'd never leave him hanging though ;) Aw, glad to make you smile :)

BubbleGumSweetShit;
Chapter ?/ 'Just Pick, Already'
Rated; T/ (mild language, some boy on boy cuddling)
Pairings; Matt/Adam, Justin Gabriel/Heath Slater, mentions of Jay/Mor, E&C friendship.
Set-up; Matt observes the new couple as Addy & Jay-Jay play a 'serious' card game.

Matt Hardy yawned tiredly, redirecting his eyes to the soft giggling from the other side of the locker room. Heath Slater, Christian's rookie on NXT, was sitting in Matt's rookie, Justin Gabriel's lap. His arms draped around Justin's neck as Justin's were wrapped around Heath's waist. Heath was giggling, smiling in his current puppy-love induced bliss as Justin nuzzled his face in Heath's neck. Kissing his neck and face sweetly ever so often or so and whispering sweet little nothing's in the tall male's ear.

Matt smiled to himself. His and Christian's rookies had started dating not long after NXT had begun and Matt and Jay had taken their 'proteges' out to a bar with some other superstars and friends. The two had hit it off and soon became inseparable. Matt thought it was adorable that Justin had found someone to make him so happy. A tall, lanky, lovable, rockstar wannabe, goof-ball of his own. It kind of reminded Matt of his own tall, lanky, lovable, wannabe rockstar, goof-ball.

Matt turned his head over to Adam, who was busy playing cards with Jay since Jason had a wee bit of alone time away from JoMo.

Adam stared straight forward, holding to his cards with both hands. His pink tongue peeking out past his lips on the side of his mouth and curling upwards as he 'concentrated' his next big move like it was strategically important.

Jay looked at him, holding to his own cards with one hand. The other hand placed on his hip. Jay sighed and his face twitched with his growing impatience that Addy hadn't made a move yet. The shorter haired blonde removed his hand from his hip and slammed his hand down on the table, startling Adam. Matt held back a snorted laugh as his blonde babe jumped and looked up quickly, blinking at his long-time friend in inquiry.

"Would you hurry up? I'm dying of old age here!" Jay stressed as he drummed his fingers on the table.

Adam exhaled and slowly reached his hand out to Jason's cards, wiggling his fingers over them as he decided which to chose. Jay gave a snarled grin. His tongue probing at his top lip. Adam saw the grin and moved his fingers to another card. Jay cleared his throat, putting back on a stern 'poker face' as he straightened up and shifted in his seat.

Adam gripped the chosen card between his first two fingers and his thumb, slowly withdrawing it from the others. Jay watched as Adam recoiled back and turned the card he just picked over to see what it was.

Jay snorted as Adam's face dropped to disappointment. The long-haired blonde puckered his face into a pout that was sure to rival that of any kicked puppy's. "No! Not that!"

Jay laughed and watched Adam reshuffle his cards up as he muttered bitterly under his breath. Adam was unfortunate enough to get the Old Maid card once again. Matt shook his head and patted Adam on the back, moving it down to rub circles between his lover's shoulders in sympathy.

"There there, baby." Matt cooed gently.

Jay continued to laugh. Holding his stomach with the hand that wasn't gripping to his cards, thoroughly enjoying Adam's displeasure.

"You're an ass!" Adam pouted at his best friend.

"Yeah, but I'm your ass, Addy." Jay grinned, wiping away invisible tears from his laughing fit.

Adam sighed. "Just pick, already." He said, holding out his cards to Jay.

Yeah, I dunno where that came from. Just a writing exercise (shrugs) I used to play Old Maid as a kid, but I can't even remember how that game goes these days, lol. I know Matt seemed to be out of place, not really doing nothing. But it was kinda like he was just sitting there and enjoying observing his Addy and his friends just taking it easy for a bit. (shrugs again) Just a writing exercise. I think I was doing these to try and get better at detail and describing things other than hott dude sex... not that I don't like describing hott dude sex.. I like that a lot, hehe..
