I DO NOT OWN ANYONE OR ANYTHING IN THIS STORY BESIDES THE OC'S.
Adora's Point of View-
Mike and I ate our meals when they were brought out and paid our bill that had our game cards with it, and each game card had free $5 on them.
"I don't have any bills to put on the card after this $5 is gone." I said.
"Then you should make it last." Mike said smirking as we left our table towards the games, I went straight to the motorcycle racing game. "I hate this damn game." Mike said as he climbed on to the one next to me.
"That's why I chose it." I said smirking.
"You jerk." Mike said as we swiped our cards for it to take the amount off. We raced on the game and I came in first with him coming to a close second with him being behind me by 5 seconds. "You suck." Mike said as he climbed off the bike.
"Don't be hating." I said smirking as I climbed off as well.
"I choose next, I want to play the basketball ones." Mike said, for some odd reason it reminded me of Alex and I smiled.
"You know who's good at basketball?" I asked as we walked up to the game.
"Who?" Mike asked swiping his card and I did mine.
"Alex."
"I guess you haven't seen me play yet." Mike said as we both pushed the start button releasing the balls for us to attempt to make the baskets, after the game he had beat me by 2 points.
"I think Alex still could do better." I said as I headed to Whack-A-Mole that was nearby to get some aggression out of me.
"Alex, psh." Mike said.
"What do you honestly think of Alex?" I asked swiping my card and grabbed the padded mallet.
"He's a great guy, I love him like he's my brother, he is a very hard worker, dedicated to wrestling and he has a very good head on his shoulders." Mike said.
"Then why did you freak out when he and I almost-" I begun to say when Mike interrupted me.
"I didn't freak out okay? And that never happened." Mike said.
"Then what would you say or do if I said that we were dating?" I asked curiously as I wanted to test the waters.
"I'll say that I will file sexual harassment charges against him and get him fired." Mike said.
"Sexual harassment?" I asked getting frustrated with him because he 'says' he's a great guy but yet he doesn't want me dating him.
"Yes, if I filed it then he'll get fired and you two won't be together anymore." Mike said as I smacked him in the gut as hard as I could with the padded mallet with how frustrated I was with him and stormed out of the restaurant to his car folding my arms over my chest by how mad I was at him. He came out moments later still holding his stomach and he unlocked the car and drove us home. I climbed out of the car before he even shut the car off and stormed through the house seeing Maryse just now getting up from the couch before I went into my room slamming the door without locking it in case my sister will come in to talk to me.
Mike's Point of View-
As we left our table towards the games, Adora headed straight to the motorcycle racing game.
"I hate this damn game." I said as I climbed on to the one next to her.
"That's why I chose it." Adora said smirking.
"You jerk." I said as we swiped our cards for it to take the amount off of our cards. We raced on the game and I came in second, I missed her by 5 seconds. "You suck." I said as I climbed off the bike.
"Don't be hating." Adora said smirking as she climbed off the bike as well.
"I choose next, I want to play the basketball ones." I said.
"You know who's good at basketball?" Adora asked as we walked up to the game.
"Who?" I asked as I swiped my card and saw her bend down to swipe hers.
"Alex." She said, I rolled my eyes trying not to let him ruin my game.
"I guess you haven't seen me play yet." I said confidently as we both pushed start releasing the balls for us to attempt to make the baskets, after the game I had beaten her by 2 points.
"I think Alex still could do better." Adora said as she headed towards Whack-A-Mole that was nearby and I stared at my score wondering if he could really beat that score. 'Here we go again about Alex, why is she bringing him up?' I thought trying not to think about the moment Alex and her almost kissed.
"Alex, psh." I said as I caught up to her.
"What do you honestly think of Alex?" Adora asked swiping her card and grabbed the padded mallet.
"He's a great guy, I love him like he's my brother, he is a very hard worker, dedicated to wrestling and he has a very good head on his shoulders." I said honestly as I watched her waiting for the moles to pop up to hit them.
"Then why did you freak out when he and I almost-" Adora begun to say when I interrupted her not wanting to relive that moment yet again.
"I didn't freak out okay? And that never happened." I said trying to push that out of my head.
"Then what would you say or do if I said that we were dating?" Adora asked as I noticed she kept side glancing at me and I thought about it for a while before I answered her.
"I'll say that I will file sexual harassment charges against him and get him fired." I said.
"Sexual harassment?" Adora asked giving me a questionable look as she was hitting the moles harder than before.
"Yes, if I filed it then he'll get fired and you two won't be together anymore." I said as unsuspectingly she smacked me right in the gut as hard as she probably could with the padded mallet before she dropped the mallet, she stormed out of the restaurant not finishing the game she had started. I picked up the mallet hitting rest of the moles trying to get my own anger out not wanting to think about those two dating but I wasn't sure if they were or not. 'Why would she ask if they weren't? Does she want to date him?' I thought as I smacked the last mole before resting it on the game wincing from pain again, I wrapped my arm around my stomach to hold it feeling it almost instantly already swelling as I headed out of the restaurant. When I got out of the restaurant I saw her standing next to my car with her arms crossed over her chest and her jaws were clenched like she was pissed. I unlocked the car and climbed in not knowing what to say now, I drove us home and she pretty much jumped out of the car before I had the chance to turn the car off. I closed the garage turning the car off and climbed out heading into the house quite a few moments later seeing Maryse now standing in the hall heading towards the garage with a concerned expression one her face.
"What happened?" Maryse asked.
"Are Alex and Addie dating?" I asked bluntly.
"No…why?" Maryse asked, I couldn't tell if she was telling the truth or lying to me, but I knew I couldn't go between the bond of sisters.
"Then tell me why she is mad at me for telling her the truth of what I'll do if they were dating?" I asked trying not to raise my voice.
"Then tell me why you don't want them to date?" Maryse asked.
"Because she deserves better than someone like Alex." I said.
"Saying she deserves better than Alex is like saying that maybe I should deserve someone better than you." Maryse said as she turned and walked away from me and walked into Adora's room, I growled out of anger before running a hand through my hair and walked up the stairs to go to the master bedroom to take a shower to cool down some and clear my thoughts.
Maryse's Point of View-
I sat on the couch reading one of the recent romance novels Mike had picked me up at Barnes and Noble the other day when I heard the garage door open. I checked my watch noticing how early it was and knew that it couldn't be Mike and Adora because I wasn't expecting them home until much later because I know how they get with their petty arcade game competitions and bowling. I went to stand up when I saw my sister storming past the living room wiping at her eyes and letting herself into her bedroom, I saw and heard the door shut but never heard the door lock, I immediately knew she wanted to talk but I waited to see Mike to get some kind of information out of him to know what happened. I started walking down the hallway towards the garage when the door opened again seeing Mike walk through it and he shut the door making eye contact with me.
"What happened?" I asked curiously.
"Are Alex and Addie dating?" Mike asked me bluntly and I had to try to change my facial expression or else he'll know that I was lying and I didn't want to blow it for them.
"No…why?" I asked crossing my arms over my chest hoping he'll tell me.
"Then tell me why she is mad at me for telling her the truth of what I'll do if they were dating?" Mike asked in a little louder tone than his normal voice.
"Then tell me why you don't want them to date?" I asked curiously so I could talk to Adora and give her a more in depth reason why he doesn't want them dating.
"Because she deserves better than someone like Alex." Mike said.
"Saying she deserves better than Alex is like saying that maybe I should deserve someone better than you." I said as I turned and walked away from him and into Adora's room seeing her laying down on her stomach digging her face into her pillow hearing her sniffle and trying to suck up tears. I shut the door behind me locking it, I walked in closer to her and climbed onto the bed beside her running my hand through her beautiful blonde hair that was darker than mine on some levels, she had dirty blonde hair unlike mine, her dad had jet black hair and it was bound to have darker shades. "Adora, you want to talk about it?" I asked softly, she rolled her head to look at me seeing her eyes already blood shot.
"Your boyfriend is a moron." She said sniffing up some tears.
"I know he is…" I said.
"I don't want Alex to get fired! I would rather me get fired than him!" She said as I wiped my finger over the tears that were escaping her eyes.
"He won't get fired, I promise."
"How can you make that promise? Mike finds out about Alex and I and he'll…he'll…" She said as that is all she could say without making herself cry more.
"Mike won't file the sexual harassment charges against Alex, it'll be more embarrassing on Mike's part than Alex and no one will believe Mike. If Alex were gay, which he isn't, you think he would really hit on Mike when there are people looking like John Cena or Randy Orton walking around?" I asked.
"But-"
"Adora, he won't do it, trust me…have I ever given you reason not to trust me?"
"No, but Mike-"
"He's all talk, I won't let him ruin this." I said running my hand through her hair.
"I just want Mike to let both of us be together and be happy about it."
"To him, your like his baby sister and he doesn't want to see you get hurt and he looks to Alex like his brother and he just can't grow up and let love take it's toll on people." I said.
"Will he ever come around to it?"
"Only time will tell….you want some ice cream?" I asked as she nodded. I got up going out to the kitchen dishing out two bowls of ice cream carrying them back to her room where we slowly ate at it and I listened to her rant at how angry she was at Mike and how much she liked Alex, plans that they had made for the weekend about going to the beach. I begun to think about what I had said to Mike and realized that I may have been out of hand because I truly do love him and I deserve a man like him because he truly does complete me. I stayed with my sister until she fell asleep, I set her alarm on her phone before I plugged it in, I picked up all the used toilet paper tissue that she had used to blow her nose then washed my hands before I picked up to the two dirty dishes taking them out with me to let her sleep through this. I went into the kitchen washing out the dishes and put them into the dishwasher to run through when we get back on Monday. I slowly made my way upstairs seeing the door open to see Mike in my room seeing him moving from our closet to the bed where his suitcase was set on. I stopped in the doorway leaning against the door frame watching him for a few moments, I saw him glance to me and he didn't say anything. After a few moments, I broke the silence, "Hey…" I said as I then begun playing with the necklace he had given me the month prior as an anniversary present.
"Hey…" He said as he stopped at the bed putting a couple things into his bag before he leant against the pile of clothes that was in it.
"I'm sorry about what I said earlier….I was just upset and angry…" I said as I walked further into the room.
"No, I'm sorry…I'm just obsessed about trying to keep them apart and I am afraid that it is tearing Addie and I apart, not to mention my relationship with Alex…" Mike said.
"It is…Adora just wants you to trust her and let her explore her options, she doesn't want you restricting her and she is like me, she wants everyone to be happy." I said as he grabbed my hand pulling me with him as he sat down on the bed beside his suitcase and pulled me into his embrace.
"I know…just I want to look out for her and I don't want to see her hurt."
"Sad to say but your hurting her." I said as I ran my hand through his hair on the side so I won't ruin his faux hawk.
"I know, I know…I can't help to think what would happen if they dated and it didn't work out."
"What if they date and it DOES work out? I can sit here and name numerous 'what ifs' of what could or couldn't happen Mike, but your going to be the reason why she will miss out on what could be a great opportunity." I said.
"Are they dating?" Mike asked.
"No, she wants to be happy and make you happy along with making me happy."
"Are you sure they aren't?"
"If you don't trust me, you'll find out this weekend…why are you already packing?" I asked looking into his suitcase.
"I needed to find something to ease my mind instead of sticking my ear to the door listening to Addie crying."
"You should have, it would have done it's toll on your guilt." I said smirking as I leant down giving him a kiss.
"Why did you say what you said about maybe you don't deserve someone like me?"
"It came out without me thinking and I don't honestly feel that way honey…" I said.
"Okay….I love you." Mike said as he kissed me again.
"I love you too….when are we leaving in the morning?"
"Well, Alex's plane comes in at 3 PM, so we have a 4-6 hour trip ahead of us so I'm assuming 9 AM."
"Let me go change Addie's alarm clock then." I said as I left the room going back down to my sisters room changing her alarm to earlier even though she will hate me for it tomorrow but we needed to leave early to make it to the airport in time to pick Alex up. I went back upstairs beginning to pack my own bag and packed a few extra items in case Adora doesn't have the time to pack in the morning. "Just don't expect to Adora to talk to you tomorrow…she's still kind of upset when she went to bed." I said as I zipped up my bag.
"I didn't expect anymore than that." Mike said smirking as we moved our bags to next to our door for us to grab in the morning, we climbed into our bed falling asleep.
