Chapter 13

Later that day:

"Okay... No crying today okay?" Phil asked as Adam smiled to show no signs of sadness, either that or he was REALLY good at hiding it if he was. "Good" Phil murmured as he walked over to answer the knocks at they're hotel room door.

He opened the door to see a grumpy looking Randy Orton, an annoyed looking John Cena, and a very amused looking Jeff Hardy.

Phil smiled stepping away from the door. "Come on in guys..."

All three men walked in, John and Randy taking separate sides of the room, as Jeff pulled Phil into the bathroom to speak to him.

"What's up Jeff?" Phil asked blinking in confusion "What's up with them?"

Jeff released a small giggle. "Well quite a few things... actually... First that we were so ready for this explanation thing to be done and over with so they could go back to our rooms, the other that... this hotel only had one room, so we took it, and I took the couch, they were forced to sleep in the same bed..." Jeff stopped as he giggled remembering.

Phil chuckled at the thought, trying to hide his embarrassment for not having as much money as Cena, Orton or Jeff and the pain that it brought.

"Thirdly... our room... was next to your room. We heard your lovers' spat this morning, the walls here are paper thin, you woke Randy "the drama King" Orton up, he was grumpy, Cena laughed and poked fun at him, he got mad and shoved Cena off the bed" *Jeff stopped and giggled uncontrollably at the memory.

"And Cena retaliated later on by tossing cold water over the top of the shower curtain while Randy was in the shower because he left the door unlocked... and Randy screamed like a girl... for a sec I thought a chick was taking a shower in there!"

Phil and Jeff both burst out laughing. They laughed until they're sides hurt, as Adam glanced at them from the bed were he sat looking confused. Phil smiled to assured him that everything was alright.

Randy sneered at Jeff, already knowing what they were talking about. Adam stood walking over to The Viper, slipping his arms around him, like they used to hug. Randy looked shocked at the gesture, but smiled slightly returning the hug, holding his best friend close to him.

"Why so grumpy?" Adam asked softly in his ear. Randy growled, literally GROWLED, like an animal as the morning replayed in his mind.

"You and your Punkiekins woke me up this morning with your little argument... then that asshole over there" *Points at John who tries and fails to look innocent* "Wants to make fun when I try to go back to bed, so I kicked, yes I KICKED, him out of the bed and onto the floor!" Randy sneered as Adam swatted him on the chest.

"Bad Randall! You don't kick people out of the bed!" *Adam leaned closer secretly fist bumping Randy* "good one" he murmured quietly but Phil caught it, putting his hands on his hips. "Excuse me?"

Adam jumped turning around slowly to see an insulted looking John, an amused Jeff, and Phil looking angry... and all kinds of sexy.

"Yeah? I mean... Yeah... so don't kick... John ... off the bed..." Phil smiled. "That's better."

"Anyways! Then he comes in the bathroom when I'm in the shower! And tosses the ice cold water FRESH from the ice machine, over the top of the curtain! Then to make it worse, he flushes the toilet!" Randy shouted as Adam winced since he was still hugging Randy.

The room was suddenly silent after Randy's outburst. Jeff snickered, John smiled, Phil grinned at the thought, Randy seethed, and Adam glared still hugging Randy.

"And he can do that to Randy? What's up with that?" Adam glared as Phil smiled. "Okay from this moment on, Jeff Hardy, Cena and Orton Will GET ALONG!" Phil said as Jeff nodded.

"Why the hell should I?" Randy asked sneering. Jeff blinked stepping in between them, trying to stop the fight brewing between Orton and Cena.

"Okay! Hey QUIET!" Jeff yelled as everyone stopped. "Randy!" Jeff turned to face Randy. "You care about Adam Right? You care that he's happy, you're happy he's happy? Despite the fact you may not like Phil, he makes Adam happy. Adam loves Phil. You're happy for them, aren't you?"

"Yes I'm happy FOR Adam" Randy muttered calming down some as Adam hugged him once again at hearing his answer. "And Phil is the cause for Adam's happiness, John is Phil's friend... so if you wish to stick around in Adam's life, you'll have to get used to John being there too..." Jeff continued before turning his back to Randy to look at John.

"John! You care about Phil right? You care that he's happy? Don't you?" Jeff asked now putting John on the spot. "Of course I do... he knows that I do!" John exclaimed defending himself as Jeff nodded.

"Good. Well Adam makes him happy, Phil loves Adam. So you caring for Phil's happiness means you care about Adam, Randy is Adam's friend, and so if YOU wish to stick around, you'll have to co-exist with Randy..." Jeff finished watching John's face.

"Fine." He muttered as Jeff blinked. "'Fine' what?"

"Fine I'll put up with the Drama King..." John muttered as Phil grinned throwing his arms around him. John chuckled hugging him back. Once they broke apart Phil mouthed 'Thank you' to Jeff who smiled mouthing 'Your Welcome' Back.

Phil turned to look at Randy. "Apologize to John, for pushing him off the bed... No Fuss!" Phil growled as Randy opened his mouth to argue, Adam poked him sharply in the back to silence whatever he had to say. "Sorry dic- John" Randy muttered catching himself. Phil nodded ignoring that.

"John apologize for keeping Randy up and throwing cold water on him".

"I'm sorry" John murmured without hesitance.

"Good now... Randy do you mind taking your hands off my Boyfriend?" Phil asked a slight edge to his voice that Adam perceived as jealousy, watching as Phil's jaw tightened ever so slightly.

Randy, could've been a complete ass and smirked, hold onto Adam longer, but pulled his arms from around him, taking a seat in one of two seats in the room. John claimed the other one, Jeff smirked seeing no more chairs, so he plopped down on John's lap; John chuckled but otherwise let him stay.

Phil held his arms open, signaling he wanted Adam next to him. Adam sneered, annoyed with Phil's over protectiveness, and chose to lean against the door instead. Phil blinked, eyes watering in rejection, he blinked several times, forcing a shrug as he sat on the bed.

But Randy saw it... saw the light in Phil's eyes darken slightly... He shook his head standing walking over to Adam, gently gripping his arm.

"Don't do that to him... it's okay I understand... go to him... don't hurt him over something stupid..." Randy murmured so low, nobody heard but Adam, he knew that, because when he turned around, John, Jeff and Phil all looked confused. Randy walked back over and resumed sitting as if he hadn't moved.

Adam blinked walking slowly over to sit next to Phil on the bed; Phil pursed his lips glancing over at Adam. Despite the hurt, rejected look, or the glossy/teared up green orbs Phil tried to hide, Adam saw through it, feeling the backlash sting of what he'd done in his own heart.

He slipped his arms around Phil's shoulders, urging him closer. Phil took the hint, scooting closer to Adam, laying his head against his shoulder closing his eyes, before pulling away to face the small group.

"So explain, how you taking my title, fits into the plan." Adam murmured starting the conversation. Phil nodded. "Yes. Well you and... It... Are getting married this Friday, so me cashing in, gives you a reason to call off the wedding. Everyone pretty much already knows you're with her for the title anyways, so that gives good reason to go ape shit on... it..." Phil explained as Adam nodded.

"Hm... so how does that get us on the same show?" Adam asked as Phil nodded. "I'm getting to that. Well, step two is you calling off the disast- I mean wedding with it- i mean Vickie. Step three, later that night... you and I reveal our... relationship...It'll be so pissed at you so embarrassed... It'll... she'll want nothing more, then you off her show!" Phil explained as Adam smiled before frowning. "But she'll send La 'Famila after me... after you..."

"Ha!" Randy exclaimed as all turned to face him. "Adam... that's what I'm here for!" Jeff and John glared as Randy sneered slightly. "Them too… Anyways, if we're lucky... we may even get the other Hardy to help".

Jeff nodded. "Yeah I'm trying to get Matt to help us."

"And for the record... if they so much as lay one finger, ONE FINGER on you, I'll beat them within an inch of their lives" Phil murmured a deathly glint in his olive green orbs.

Adam smiled laying his head on Phil's shoulder. "Thanks Baby" he murmured leaning to kiss Phil on the lips. Phil smiled slipping his arms around him. "I love you."

"I love you more" Adam grinned kissing him again. "Dude!" Jeff exclaimed before John slapped his massive hand over his mouth. "Quiet pip squeak" he chuckled as Jeff grumbled.

Randy rolled his eyes but couldn't keep the smile from coming to his face. Adam cuddled against Phil's side, kissing him on the cheek with a smile grazing his lips. 'What could possibly go wrong?'
