I DO NOT OWN ANYONE OR ANYTHING IN THIS STORY BESIDES THE OC'S.
Adora's Point of View-
I slept peacefully into the next day until I felt something fall onto my bed heavily and loudly, I shot up in a way like the Undertaker sits up because it scared me and I heard a manly laughter.
"Morning Addie." Mike said chuckling, I looked over to the man that was now laying beside me.
"I hate you!" I said hitting him with the pillow I was cuddling with the night before.
"Don't hit me!" He said as he grabbed the pillow that was under my head hitting me back, which led to us having a pillow fight and Maryse came into the doorway laughing at the sight.
"Guys, breakfast is ready…" Maryse finally spoke up.
"Breakfast, what time is it?" I asked curiously after smacking Mike one more time in the face.
"Noon, but it's breakfast to us…" Maryse said smiling.
"Yeah Addie." He said hitting me in the back of the head with the pillow.
"Run." I said turning to look at him.
"I'm so scared of a 5 foot 9 skinny French girl." Mike said as he climbed off my bed and I jumped onto his back where he held onto my legs in a piggy back style. "Really Addie? Trying to attack me from behind…" Mike said as he carried me out of my room like that dropping my feet to allow me to walk rest of the way.
"What is the plan for today?" I asked as I went to the refrigerator grabbing the bottle of Apple Juice to pour instead of having coffee.
"Nothing, I was thinking going to get a new game for the gaming system…" Mike said.
"What game you looking at getting?" I asked curiously as I poured the juice into a glass and took a sip before I put the top back on the carton and put it back in the fridge.
"I was going to let you choose…"
"Cool…" I said.
"I was planning on staying back and let you two have your bonding day." Maryse said giving me a wink.
"Yeah, sounds good…while in town I need to pick up more thread." I said carrying my glass to the table where the Eggo toaster waffles were already on our three plates ready to be eaten.
"We can go get you thread…I think there is a Jo-Ann's or something next to Game Stop." Mike said.
"Sweet…" I said as I separated the two waffles and waited my turn for the syrup.
"How is the jacket coming along?" Maryse asked.
"Almost done, then I got to do the collar thing…" I said smirking.
"Then you will do mine?" Mike asked handing me the syrup.
"Yeah, I will get to work on yours." I said.
"Sweet." Mike said, we ate breakfast and Mike seemed a lot more relaxed than he was when we were around Alex, so I'm hoping that he has cleared his head some about this whole thing. The breakfast was fun, it felt like old times and it was nothing but laughter. I got up taking care of my dishes and went and joined them back at the table laughing at this story he told of when he was in training. "We should get going before this whole day is wasted…" Mike said realizing that it was now 2 PM.
"Yeah, I'll go get ready…" I said standing up and heading to my room letting them do their thing, I checked my phone seeing a few texts from Alex. 'Are you up? I miss you…wish I could talk to you…' 'I saw a beautiful flower that reminded me of you because of how beautiful you are…' and 'My day is going to be gloomy because my ray of sunshine is gone.' I rolled my eyes because it was so cute but yet so stupid pick up lines he was using. 'Alex, quit trying to make me blush and those lines are so stupid…' I said. I went into my closet pulling out an outfit to wear and went to shower real quickly, and got ready to go grabbing my phone off the charger as I was heading out of my room reading Alex's text 'What stupid lines? It was the truth...' along with a smiley face. 'Whatever Alex…what are you doing?' I asked as I slid it into my pocket before Mike can get a glimpse of it when I realized that Mike was now running down the steps in a pair of jeans and one of my favorite shirts he owned, I have threatened to steal it too. "I am going to steal that shirt one day." I said.
"Will not…" Mike said smirking as he grabbed the keys he had put on the hook the night before heading towards the garage.
"Maryse not coming with us?" I asked.
"Nope, she's taking a bath and reading a book, she wants to relax this week." Mike said.
"To each their own I guess." I said as I followed him to the garage where I climbed into the passenger seat buckling up.
"What game you looking at getting?"
"I don't know, depends on what they have…I was thinking getting a wrestling one." I said.
"I have all of them, I got them all free through WWE."
"Pin a rose on your nose…" I stated.
"I would but that would hurt…" Mike said as he begun to back out of the garage and his drive way.
"Why do you want new ring attire?" I asked.
"I don't, I want some new things because I don't think my character will be changing anytime soon…I just want something special to wear to these pay-per-views…."
"You like the whole leather type thing that Maryse has in her jacket?"
"I don't like the black though…." Mike said.
"Let's look at the fabrics at Jo-Ann's and you can tell me what you like…"
"It won't look like Maryse's would it? I don't want to look girly."
"You don't need my help with that." I joked.
"Ha ha…"
"I thought it was funny." I said.
"Have you thought about getting your license?" Mike asked turning the air conditioner on in the car as we sat at the red light.
"Not really….I should look into it when my green card comes in."
"We'll go check the mail as well since we are out." Mike said as he then cut over to take a right instead the left he was planning on doing.
"You are such an LA driver…" I said holding onto the 'oh shit' bar that he had in the car.
"Well, thank god I live in LA then…" Mike said smirking.
"Thank god for that…" I said rolling my eyes, I watched the city that passed us by as we were driving down street after street to get to his post office box. "Why do you guys use a post office box? I mean, don't you get mail to your house?" I asked as I unbuckled and begun to climb out.
"We do, but we give out our post office for fan mail and stuff, we don't need people figuring out where we live." Mike said as I climbed out and he locked the doors the moment our doors were shut.
"Well, that I understand…" I said as I met him in front of the car following him into the post office and to his box. He opened it and pulled out all his mail, "That is a lot of mail." I said.
"We only check the mail once a month if that, we don't make that big of an effort to come collect it every week even though we should." Mike said.
"Yeah you should….that is a lot…" I said as he closed it and locked it back up before we stepped aside and he went through it tossing out all the junk mail that he had received. "Do you read all the fan letters?" I asked curiously as we headed back out of the building.
"If I have enough time and in the mood too, sometimes I can never get to it due to schedule conflictions, like tomorrow I have interviews all over LA." Mike said.
"You do?" I asked shocked to hear that, I didn't know.
"Yeah, Maryse is supposed to escort me to a couple since they usually like a diva and a star together at some of these events." Mike said as we climbed into his car.
"So I have the house all to myself tomorrow?"
"You say it likes it a good thing."
"It is a good thing." I said.
"Well, there are rules but I trust you enough…" Mike said.
"You trust me?" I asked curiously, he looked to me making eye contact before he begun to back up.
"Yeah, why wouldn't I trust you?" Mike asked as he looked over his shoulder to begin to back up.
"I don't know, I mean after this…" I begun to say.
"Don't bring that up okay…that never happened." Mike said as it went awkwardly silent while he was pulling out and I didn't know what to say to him, "I mean, I came to terms that it was just heat of the moment and there isn't anything going on between you two…there can't be, is there?" Mike asked.
"No….not at all…" I lied.
"Good, you haven't given me a reason to not trust you…" Mike said smirking, I hated lying to Mike and having to hide what I felt towards Alex but if it meant for Mike to trust me and to still be my friend. I was afraid of what Mike would do if he realized that we were truly involved with each other but knew he will overcome it sometime but Mike can be hard headed sometimes. "I wonder how Alex's match is going to go tonight…."
"Who is he fighting tonight?" I asked curiously not being able to check my phone yet due to being around Mike.
"He is supposed to job to a new character that is supposed to be strong and powerful." Mike said.
"Why did they choose Alex for that?" I asked.
"They wanted someone that was good at what they did and good at selling, which Alex was the first person they thought of, it's weird how they did that…"
"Has Alex improved any since you have begun to work with him?" I asked wanting to get his take on him.
"Alex is a great person, I think he has improved his microphone skills but they aren't that great yet…everyone needs improvement at any level in this company, there is always room for improvement." Mike said.
"No one is perfect…." I said as I looked out the window.
"Yep…but I personally think he has shown great improvements and can definitely reach the high levels of this company if he applies himself properly." Mike said.
"What about personally?" I asked curiously.
"Why do you care?"
"I don't care, I just want your opinion….as someone I look to as an older brother, and I value your opinion." I said.
"He's a great guy, like others sometimes he seems like he has his head screwed on the wrong way or he isn't completely focused but we all get that way. Life itself is distracting but he is really a good guy and is much like, sometimes a little too much like me."
"Oh god, it's that bad when you admit he's too much like you." I said smirking.
"I think that is why they paired him with me."
"You think?" I asked.
"Shut up." He said as he turned down a street.
"Where we going?" I asked curiously.
"The back way to the Game Stop instead of taking the traffic streets, the streets get busy during this time due to schools getting let out." Mike explained.
"Okay, just don't get us lost." I said as I trusted him know his way around since he lived her the longest.
"I have yet to get lost in LA besides the first time I moved her and that was years ago."
"But you still got lost…and now you have GPS." I said.
"I don't take the GPS everywhere I go…."
"Well, that's smart." I said looking out the window looking at the big houses that we were passing. "Why are we taking a residential street?" I asked curiously.
"It reminds me of the houses I wish I had and one day hopefully own…"
"Maryse won't like a big house, she prefers her house small and her family close."
"I know…" Mike said but I knew deep down he would love to own a big house but I guess with love you have to make sacrifices.
"Why do you want such a big house anyway?" I asked curiously as he turned into the parking lot of a plaza seeing the GameStop first.
"For the multiple rooms, if Maryse and I wanted to start a family we will have enough room for the 2-3 kids we will have, we will be able to have a bigger family room and a bigger kitchen to cook in and to have more family time…I want to have a gaming room that I can call my 'office.'" Mike said as he parked the car letting us climb out of his car and he locked it through his keychain.
"Mike, that sounds good and reasonable but you and Maryse are barely home as it, how will you be able to raise 2-3 kids and Maryse will have to take a lot of time off her work with WWE and her modeling career."
"I know, but it's just a dream right now…" Mike said, I never knew this side of Mike, the side that had dreams that was beyond his work and he was very smart and had a good head on his shoulders.
