I DO NOT OWN ANYONE OR ANYTHING IN THIS STORY BESIDES THE OC'S.
Friday-
Adora's Point Of View-
Alex and I were texting all day yesterday, he has kept me updated about when he got home and what he was doing, I could tell he was bored and I knew I was bored even though I had Maryse's outfit I needed to finish but Alex was a nice distraction. Maryse has apologized for spying on Alex and I the other night, I forgave her and knew she was just trying to help but it still made me angry. Alex was supposed to be already at the airport when we land in Oregon, I would be lying if I said I wasn't excited to see him again but I wasn't going to admit that I was excited to see him. When we landed, I led the way to the baggage claim and trying to stop the smile that was creeping on my face when we saw him on the bottom floor as we climbed onto the escalator.
"You down with that Addie?" Mike asked.
"What?" I asked turning to look at him and Maryse as we approached the end of the escalator.
"We were talking about going out tonight to celebrate…" Maryse said.
"Out where? Celebrate what?" I asked.
"To a club, to celebrate your first weekend as a WWE employee." Mike said.
"I guess it could be fun…" I said as we walked over to Alex, "We are going to a club tonight, you want to come with?" I asked hoping he would say yes.
"Yeah, sounds fun…I haven't been to a club in a couple weeks…" Alex said smirking.
"Why'd you invite him?" Mike asked.
"If it's my celebration, I should be able to invite who I want to invite." I said hoping that would do for an explanation.
"She's right." Maryse said smiling.
"Whatever…" Mike said as we walked towards our baggage claim.
"Did you get enough sleep?" I asked.
"Yep, that flight gave me a few extra hours…"
"How were your flights?"
"Long…not much turbulence so I couldn't complain…" Alex said as he rolled his bag with me.
"Did you bring the movies?"
"Yes, and the television seasons…"
"Good, we can watch some of it this weekend…"
"Why else would I bring them?" Alex asked.
"You like the extra weight in your suitcase?"
"Yep, you caught me…" Alex said smirking when I felt my phone going off, I pulled it out and saw Claudia's name popping up.
"I have to take this…" I said as I stepped aside letting him continue onto the baggage claim and I knew Mike and Maryse would grab my bag if I wasn't there. "Hello?" I asked.
"Hey Addie, did you catch your flight?"
"Yeah, I'm in the airport in Oregon…why?"
"I'm not going to be able to make tonight due to being kept up in Connecticut due to work…I should be there by Monday the latest….all the things you will need should be there since all should be packed up in the trucks."
"Okay, I'll figure something out…" I said confidently and hoping that I can do this.
"Okay thanks, how'd the runway go? I saw the photos of you and Alex, they were adorable."
"Thanks…well the runway went good…we left a little early…"
"Why?"
"A model fell and we couldn't really stop laughing…" I said trying not to let a chuckle out remembering that girl falling.
"Oh, totally understand….sorry about this…I got to go, the meeting is about to begin again." Claudia said.
"No problem, have fun." I said hanging up as I caught up with the guys standing next to Alex watching suitcases now being dropped onto the carousel.
"Who was that?" Maryse asked.
"Claudia." I said.
"What did she want? The weekend hasn't even begun." Mike said.
"She won't be here until Monday." I stated.
"So, you are in charge of everything this weekend?" Alex asked smirking.
"That doesn't mean come terrorize me." I said smirking even though I would want that.
"I think it does." Alex said.
"Addie, your bag!" Maryse said as I turned to the carousel from Alex's eyes noticing my bag passing us, I ran a couple steps to catch it grabbing it off the carousel rolling it back with me.
"How do you miss your bag?" Mike asked.
"Easily." I said as I blushed slightly, we waited for their bags to come to us before we headed out of the airport. "Don't we need a car?" I asked.
"I already rented one….I had time to spare." Alex said smirking when he led us to the car he had rented, it was a red Prius that looked nice but I wasn't a big fan of it.
"Nice ride choice Alex." Mike said.
"I thought so." Alex said as he unlocked the trunk with the key he had, Alex and Mike lifted their bags into the trunks and I went to lift mine up into the trunk when Alex stopped me. "I got it…" Alex said trying to grab it for me.
"I'm not weak….I can do it…" I said smirking as I did it myself.
"Just trying to help…" Alex said.
"She's independent, I just think she doesn't like anyone touching her things…" Mike said rolling his eyes.
"Correction, I don't like you touching my things." I said as Mike lifted Maryse's bag into the trunk as I walked past him to stand beside one of the back seat doors waiting for the doors to become unlocked.
"What would I do to your belongings?" Mike asked.
"Only God would know what you will do…" I said smirking when Alex tossed the keys to Mike for him to drive.
"I'm not that bad….I just like to taunt you…" Mike said as he unlocked the car causing rest of the doors to unlock, I climbed into the back seat buckling up looking over to Alex who was sitting beside me smirking.
"May I see your phone?" Alex asked.
"No, why?"
"I thought I saw something earlier when you answered it…"
"See what?" I asked hoping he didn't see the pictures.
"I thought I saw your screensaver, I want to make sure it isn't the picture I thought it was."
"Probably isn't."
"It is, isn't it?"
"Is not…"
"Is too."
"Is not." I said as we begun to have that silly argument.
"Children, calm down." Maryse said.
"I just want to see your phone." Alex said.
"Fine…" I said giving in, I pulled out my phone handing it to him not being to look at him as he looked at my background and screensaver.
"How'd you get that picture?" Alex asked curiously, he didn't laugh and I looked back over to him feeling my cheeks slightly turning red and he handed the phone back.
"Internet…"
"How'd you save it onto your phone?" Alex asked.
"I'll show you." I said as he pulled out his phone and he went to the website finding those pictures.
"I want that one." Alex said.
"That one, really?" I asked looking at the photo he wanted.
"What's wrong with this picture?"
"Nothing…" I said not wanting to say anything and give off hints to Mike of what pictures these were. "So, you do this…" I said showing him how to drag the photo up onto the URL to get the photo into a format to save.
"How'd you learn that trick?" Alex asked.
"I have my ways…I had to learn to do it for Maryse's portfolio and for me to get pictures of their ring attire to base mine off of." I said smirking.
"Now what?"
"Save it into your photos folder…" I said as he did that, and he knew how to do the rest.
"Thanks…" Alex said smiling as I watched him do so.
"Addie, did Alexandria make it back to France?" Mike asked as I made eye contact with Mike through the rearview mirror.
"Alexandria?" Alex asked.
"Yeah, I hung out with her on Wednesday." I said as he smirked.
"Oh, classmate?" Alex asked.
"Yes…she should be on her flight still…." I lied as Alex couldn't stop chuckling and smiling.
"Did she enjoy LA?" Maryse asked.
"She had fun….she said she will like to visit again and I wish she would too." I said lying and looked to Alex hoping he will get the hint.
"I hope so too, maybe next time she won't be a stranger and will come visit us. I haven't seen here since you started college." Maryse said.
"I better meet her too…is she single?" Alex asked as I smacked him lightly getting him to giggle.
"You are not meeting her, ever." I said smiling.
"Why not?" Alex asked.
"It'll be too confusing, both your names are too similar…" Mike said.
"I'm sure you can tell us apart simply because I don't have boobs and I hope she does." Alex said.
"Are you sure about that? I mean, look at that…" I said waving my hand over his chest areas.
"These are not boobs, these are some big strong pectoral muscles." Alex explained.
"Big they are…" I said.
"Quit looking…I'm very sensitive about my boobs…" Alex said covering them up and I giggled.
"You two…" Maryse said rolling her eyes and looked ahead. We got to the arena where we climbed out of the car, I stood at the trunk watching them pull out their arena suitcases and I pulled the straps of my carry-on backpack to pull the bag closer to my back.
"Are house shows busy?" I asked as a general question.
"Not really, it's mainly the taped shows that are busier due to we have to look our bests due to being shot in High Definition." Mike said.
"We do still try to look our best at house shows but we rarely have troubles with ring attire at these shows because we have had time on break to get them fixed." Alex stated.
"Another boring night…" I said not that enthused.
"I'll keep you company…" Maryse said smiling as she wrapped her arm around me pulling me to her embrace.
"Great, we haven't had much sister time on this break." I said smiling.
"What about Alex time?" Alex asked.
"Alex better not get any Alex time from Addie…" Mike said.
"Why not?" Alex asked.
"I'm more important, and she needs more Mike time. You need to get your mind focused on your match tonight rather than trying to spend time with Addie, girls aren't a prime focus…." Mike said.
"I can find a balance…" Alex said under his breath.
"What was that?" Mike asked.
"Nothing…." Alex said as he pulled open the door holding it open for all of us to walk in. "I'll walk Addie to wardrobe…" Alex volunteered.
"I think she can find it Alex, come on, you need to prepare for your match because your second up…" Mike said walking back the few steps to where he and I had stopped.
"Yeah, I can find it Alex…go prepare for your match, good luck tonight…" I said smiling pushing a strand of hair behind my ear glancing over to Maryse who was smirking trying not to stare at the situation.
"Alright…thanks…don't get too bored." Alex said as he smirked before he reached out patting me on the shoulder with his big strong hand before walking with Mike to the men's locker room. I watched him walk a little while down the hallway a few steps behind Mike, he turned back and I looked away trying to pretend I wasn't looking.
"Wardrobe, that way…" I said pointing in the opposite way when I came face to face with Maryse watching me intently.
"First, you need to clock in…and that is in that room." Maryse said smiling.
"Right, thanks…" I said going to the room Maryse had pointed out.
