Adora's Point of View-
I went to wardrobe getting to work on what needed to be done and was happy that Alex wants to be with me and couldn't wait for our date night even though I didn't know what to wear. It then hit me that Alex wants to be with me and that we are together, Alex is my boyfriend? I couldn't even work on Maryse's jacket because I was too busy smiling and thinking about me and Alex's relationship. The show went by so fast compared to what it usually seems like, Maryse walked in with her hair pulled up in a ponytail and her hair was wet, so I knew she had a match because she always showers after her match.
"Hey, go clock out we are getting ready to go." Maryse said just popping into the room.
"Oh, okay…just let me pack things up real quick." I said as I stood up organizing things for the crew to pack up when they go to pack up and I walked out heading to Daniel's office clocking out before I went out back to the parking area seeing Mike, Maryse and Alex already loading their bags into the trunk. Alex looked over smirking at me and I couldn't help but to smile as well, Mike smacked him and pushed him to the passenger side of the car.
"Addie, come on!" Mike said in an anger tone. I walked over to the car climbing into the backseat with Maryse buckling up as Mike started backing out.
"What are you two doing on date night tonight?" I asked trying to start a conversation.
"A dinner and a movie, we shall be back by midnight…" Mike said as he drove us to the hotel, Alex and I were trying to act normal around Mike.
"I am going to leave you money to order pizza and Alex shall have a laptop to use to watch DVDs." Maryse said.
"I'm sure Alex will buy the pizza, I think we may walk to Little Caesar's since they tend to be cheaper…"
"Extra cash is never bad, and if something happens, you can at least buy it yourself…"
"What do you mean by that?" I asked.
"Nothing….I'll keep you posted throughout the date by text message and he is not allowed in our room until I text you that we have officially left the hotel by car."
"That will be good and text me before you leave…" I said.
"Well, duh…what about tomorrow night?"
"I don't know yet, lets see how tonight goes."
"Sounds good."
"Thanks Maryse." I said.
"No problem." Maryse said making me smile, I was happy that my sister supported me and liked Alex and I as a couple. "Unlike Mike, I think you and Alex are a cute couple and Mike will come around."
"Hopefully, our break at home will clear Mike's head…"
"Maybe Alex will grow some balls and stand up for you."
"What do you mean by that?" I asked.
"I mean, maybe he will finally ask you out and get Mike's permission, I think that is ultimately what is bugging Mike is that you nor Alex asked for his permission."
"Do we need his permission?" I asked curiously.
"No, but he feels like you need to be protected and no matter how stupid this sounds, it may work."
"I'll tell Alex…"
"It won't hurt…" Maryse said as Mike parked the car, we climbed out grabbing our things heading into the hotel and to our rooms where I begun shuffling through the clothes in my suitcase. "What are you doing?" Maryse asked as she picked up an outfit for her date.
"Trying to find something cute to wear for Alex and my date."
"Whatever you will wear will be cute…plus, it's not like a date date, it's a stay at home type date…"
"So, does that mean I shall wear pajamas?" I joked.
"Yes, your pajamas are so hot…" Maryse joked as she went into the bathroom to shower, my phone vibrated and I pulled it out seeing that Alex was calling.
"Your going to get us in trouble." I said the moment I answered it.
"No I'm not…."
"Whatever, Maryse said she will text me when they leave the hotel officially which will mean the coast is clear and we can then order our pizza and begin our movie marathon."
"What about Tuesday or Wednesday?" Alex asked.
"What about it?"
"Would you want to hang out?"
"I would love to, but I think it'll be for the best if we don't make Mike any more suspicious."
"Your probably right…." Alex said as I could tell he was a little upset.
"We can go out on Friday or Saturday."
"I won't be able to wait…"
"You will have to wait…"
"It'll be worth it though….shit…" Alex said as he hung up.
"Hello? Alex?" I asked looking at the phone seeing the call was ended, I rolled my eyes as I put my phone aside realizing that I will just wear what I am wearing now, he wouldn't mind that since that is probably what he will be wearing since he won't want to alarm Mike with an outfit change. Maryse walked out of the bathroom putting her dirty clothes up and sat on the bed beside me, "Alex wants to go out next week…I think I will tell him to ask Mike's permission."
"Just mention it, you never know…" Maryse said.
"At least he isn't trying to hook me up with anyone…"
"He won't go that far…"
"Yeah he will…you don't know your boyfriend that well…." I said.
"I won't let him…" She said pulling me into a random hug, "Trust your sister…" Maryse said as she got up after putting her heels on.
"I still like my flat shoes more than I do heels."
"Don't we all…we go through hell to look good…" Maryse said as she went into the bathroom to get ready for her date, I turned the television on flipping through the channels finding Criminal Minds on the one channel stopping it there even though I have seen that episode. "Do you ever not watch that show?" Maryse asked as she walked out brushing her hair.
"Yes….I sometimes watch wrestling…sometimes I watch Hawaii Five-O." I said.
"You only like this and Hawaii Five-O because you have a crush on someone on the cast."
"Do not…"
"Do too…"
"Do not…" I said.
"Fine, whatever…can you braid the top half of my hair?" Maryse asked as she sat down in front of me and I stood up on my knees to brush her hair and divide her hair to braid it for her.
"Do you remember when we were younger and we got into mom's make up?" I asked laughing.
"Oh my god, yes…we used nail polish on our face and our skin was really raw from how much rubbing of that nail polish remover our mom did."
"Yeah, stupidest move we have ever done."
"Definitely not the stupidest, but was a stupid move." Maryse said smiling.
"Were you there that time when me and my friend tried to mo-hawk our hair?"
"Yes, I was the one that was helping you guys and you guys totally ruined my hair with how much hairspray and gel you put in it…."
"We didn't ruin it…"
"Well, it did stay up for at least half an hour."
"Exactly, yours was the best out of us three…" I said laughing as I tied the ponytail band around the end of her braid.
"Do you still have those pictures somewhere?"
"Yeah, they are in my scrapbook, I'm hoping that mom and dad will send it…Mom put the picture of us with the nail polish all over our faces in my high school yearbook my senior year." I said as I sat back down letting Maryse stand up walking back into the bathroom.
"I didn't see that page…"
"I thought you did…"
"Nope…" Maryse said my phone went off right before a knock came to the door, I stood up answering it for Maryse.
"Hey Mike." I said stepping aside letting him in to wait for Maryse to finish getting ready.
"One rule, Alex is NOT allowed over here and you are NOT allowed over there…you two are grounded…."
"Why?" I asked pretending to be mad because he doesn't know our plan.
"Because I said so, I will be calling to check in on you guys…" Mike said.
"You're a jerk and a dick…."
"No, I'm doing what is the best for you. You can hate me later when you understand…" Mike said.
"Fine whatever…" I said crossing my arms over my chest and looking the other way.
"Maryse, you ready to go?" Mike asked.
"Yeah, don't wait up Adora." Maryse said.
"I won't…" I said as I handed Maryse her purse and the hotel key walking them out of the room before I pulled out my phone texting Alex back from his text telling me Mike left. 'They just left my room, now awaiting Maryse's text. You want to order the pizza now?' I asked as I sat on the bed nervously excited. My phone went off again, I opened the text reading the text from Alex 'I ordered the pizza from Little Caesar's, got to go pick it up. You want to come with?' 'Of course I'll go with you…' I said when Maryse's text came in while I was sending that one, I then just called Alex instead of texting him. "It's clear." I said when he picked up.
"I'll come get you…"
"Wait, I can't leave, Maryse has the room key…" I said.
"I have the spare key…." Alex said and I smiled.
"Oh, okay…" I said as I hung up and slid my shoes on going to the door opening and held it open until Alex came over. "You got both keys?" I asked.
"Yep, this one goes to mine and this one is yours…" He said handing it to me.
"Thanks…" I said shutting the door, he grabbed my hand as we walked down the hallway to the elevator where we climbed on and took it downstairs. "As for next weekend, Maryse think it'll be wise for you to ask Mike for permission." I said as I swung our hands a tad as we headed out of the hotel.
"Why?" Alex asked as I let him lead us to the restaurant.
"She thinks the reason Mike is all bent out of shape is because he didn't expect it and that no one asked him if it was okay. With him being as protective as he is, he wants the responsibility to approve the guy I am going out with…it may or may not work, but it's worth a shot…" I said shrugging.
"I'll do that…if that can get me to date you without sneaking around…" Alex said.
"You say that like it's a bad thing…."
"It's not a bad thing…it makes things more exciting and adventurous…it makes my time with you a lot more better than it is…" Alex said.
"It does…who is your match against tomorrow?" I asked.
"Drew again…they want me to build a feud with someone else on SuperStars but they like the way Drew and I working together."
"Your two techniques are blending well together."
"Thanks…" Alex said.
"It's really nice out here…" I said changing the subject.
"That it is…which season do you like more; summer, winter, autumn or spring?" Alex asked as he pulled open the Little Caesar's door.
"I like all the seasons, I tend to like autumn and spring best because I'm girly. I like the flowers and the storms throughout the spring but I love the gradual coldness, the different holidays, the changing of the leafs, and I love the smell of the cinnamon so this is the best time of the year for me. As for Spring, I love the flowers, the sun coming out, the butterflies and the brightness." I said as we waited in line to pick up our pizza.
"Your the crazy lady that has all the cinnamon smelling pinecones in their house and the candles that smell like cinnamon."
"I have air freshener that smells like it, it's the one scent that I obsess about." I said as we stepped up to the counter. Alex pulled out his card letting them swipe it before they handed over the food he had ordered.
"You like the scents?"
"Yes, the scents I can not get enough of, I would lose my mind if I lost my sense of smell." I said as he pushed the door open with his back and allowed me to walk out of the restaurant.
"What is your favorite cologne?" Alex asked.
"I never go to the store just to smell cologne so I don't know the difference between them all."
"What about mine?" Alex asked as I leant into his embrace smelling him.
"What your wearing is fine." I said smirking.
"It's axe, I tend to favor it along with tag."
"It's strong but subtle, just don't spray too much where it smells like you swam in it." I joked.
"I don't ever spray that much, your women perfume can be strong or you guys spray way more than us men."
"We only do that for you men to smell it and give us a compliment on it. To me, I would want to always smell good and my boyfriend MUST smell good and be clean, I'm very hygienic." I said.
"Me too, I can't stand being smelly or stinky, I always have cologne with me."
"Seriously?" I asked as he pulled out an axe to go bottle, "Not a lot of men do that much less admit it."
"I'm not most men." Alex said smirking.
"Like I haven't heard that before…."
"I'm not, no one is the same so we are all different so that makes me different." Alex said.
"I was joking." I said smiling as I pulled open the hotel door for him.
"I want to stop by the vending machines, I didn't want to get a 2-liter and have more clues laying around."
"If we are in my and Maryse's room, Maryse won't care."
"I don't want to take a chance of Mike seeing it though." Alex said.
