Indi Love
Disclaimer: I recently discovered the pure joy that is Indi Hartwell and Dexter Lumis along with The Way, making me wish I had been paying attention to NXT for the last few years. Thank you, Youtube. And while I could have done this differently as a Wrestling fic of some sort, it feels kind of awkward to do that so this is a High School AU of sorts instead. Hopefully that won't lessen the enjoyment of anyone reading.
Nervously, Candice LeRae made her way to where she knew her long time boyfriend, Johnny Gargano, could usually be found at NXT High when not in class, breakfast, lunch, or the Principal's office. Namely, the Gymnasium. And true enough, he was, and having an argument with one of the guys. Steeling herself, she called out to him and got his attention. "We need to talk, babe."
Naturally, that earned some remarks from those nearby but glares from the both of them shut them up. "Its not like that you dips, but it is about Indi."
Johnny looked at her. "What's wrong with Indi?" He immediately demanded to know when it came to their 'Daughter'.
Even if the whole notion was ridiculous considering they weren't that much older than Indi and Austin but that's just how it ended up working out! "She's… She's in love, babe." Candice told him and various reactions were seen and heard as Johnny stared at her.
The Purple haired Rebel and Athlete got concerned when he didn't say anything after several minutes of staring. "Babe? You, you okay?"
"What do you mean 'she's in love'!? She's, she's too young for that! Indi, our Indi shouldn't be dating anyone until she's 40!" Finally got out her boyfriend.
His eyes wide and a frantic vibe radiating from him. "Its just like I told you, she's in love and I agree, she is definitely too young!"
Ignoring the snorts of disbelief around her and her own feeling of the notion as well. "Where is that girl!? Huh!? I need to talk to her now so this whole mess can get put behind us and never ever think on it again!" Declared Johnny irately and frantically.
"For that matter, where's Austin!? He's supposed to be watchin' out for her as a brother's supposed too!"
He'd kick his ass if he was off messing around again! Candice immediately tried to placate him with the assurance that Austin was with Indi and ensuring her new boyfriend couldn't try anything. "Oh, good, 'cause he's gonna help me kick this guy's ass once we get to 'em! Now, who is this guy!? Huh!? Everyone knows Indi's off limits!" Grumbled Johnny.
Something he'd declared shortly after he and Candice had taken Indi and Austin into the fold when they arrived at NXT High in their Freshman year and they themselves were Sophomores. Here, Candice looked uncomfortable and that made those present very eager to know who Indi's new love interest is! "Umm… Well, that's the thing, babe…"
"Yeah? Come on! Get it out already!"
"Its… Its Dexter Lumis!" Got out the Purple haired Rebel and Johnny just stared at her in shock as those around them gasped in surprise and shock as well.
"Oh Hell yeah!" Got out one of the girls who worked for the school's newspaper known as McKenzie Mitchell.
Heck, she'd been seeing sparks between those two as it is lately so it was about time her girl got her man! Not even the glare from Candice could dim her enthusiasm either! "No! Hell no! Candice, let's go find them so I can beat the crap outta that creepy nutjob!"
No way in Hell was his little girl gonna date that nutjob! Not on his watch! "Austin should still be with them in the cafeteria." She told him and he grabbed her hand and the two quickly headed out as everyone else shook their heads at the whole thing.
"Way too over protective." Muttered one of them.
"This is so exciting and great for Indi!" Gushed McKenzie.
Meanwhile, Somewhere That's Actually NOT The Cafeteria
Indi Hartwell sighed in blissful happiness as her man's strong arms wrapped themselves around her and held her against his body. Dexter Lumis may be a quiet one but that didn't mean anything to Indi as he spoke in other ways. "Oh, Dexy, giving Austin those Cheetos and that boxed DVD set was so sweet of you. And smart." Purred the girl as she looked into her boyfriend's eyes.
He stared back at her and to anyone else, it would seem to be nothing more than a dead stare, but to Indi, she could see the humor, the pleasedness, and the adoration for her in them. And it all just made her want to melt! She'd known it was risky as Hell to tell Momma Candice about her and her Sexy Dexy but darn it, Indi was tired of hiding what she has with her man and wanted everyone to know she was the luckiest girl in the world! That, and to prevent some other skank from trying to get her claws into her Dexter and she knew Hemme had been eying him for some time now. You don't have a chance in Hell, girl! Thought the girl to herself in giddy pleasure.
She could feel a buzzing in her pocket and sighed and reluctantly parted from her Dexter, who was inwardly pouting at the loss of contact and stayed close to her as she checked her phone. Watching as she giggled and smiled. "Well, Dexy, McKenzie is all for us but I'm not too surprised, she's been one of the few who've known how we feel for one another. And its a good thing we're no where near the school now." Finished the girl with a wicked smirk as she pocketed her phone and Dexter barely nodded to show his own happiness with that as she then wrapped his arms back around her.
The two started to make out afterwards and would occupy themselves with one another for some time as Candice and Johnny both went nuts as they tried to find the two for a very important word! As for Austin? Well… "Man! I seriously love FRIENDS! And Cheetos! So great! Dexter is so cool for giving me this stuff!"
Author's Notes: Heh, that was pretty fun to do!
