Adora's Point of View-
Alex drove us over to the restaurant heading in seeing Maryse and Mike already sitting in a booth, we walked over to them and Alex let me slide into the booth first and Alex sat beside me wrapping his arm around me on the back of the booth.
"What are you wearing?" Mike asked looking at Alex.
"Clothes…what are you wearing?" Alex asked sarcastically.
"Why are you wearing a turtle neck?" Mike asked.
"Because I am cold…isn't that why most people wear turtle necks?" Alex asked as I was biting my lip trying not to laugh.
"But it's 100 degrees outside, there is no way you are cold." Mike said.
"Mike, you may be hot, but Alex may be more sensitive to the weather." Maryse said smacking Mike giving dirty looks between us.
"Fine whatever…." Mike said.
"So, have you guys already ordered?" I asked as I looked through the menu.
"Nah, we were waiting for you guys." Mike said.
"I can honestly say that I have not eaten here." Alex said.
"Well, here is to first times." Maryse said as we looked through the same menu trying to find the perfect meal to have that night.
"What'd you guys do last night?" Mike asked.
"Us? Oh nothing much." I said as I closed the menu putting it on top of Alex's menu as I could see Maryse rolling her eyes.
"We just chilled watching movies and eating junk food." Alex said.
"It didn't help my diet any, but who cares about diets on their birthday weeks?" I said chuckling.
"We have so much left over food, we should take some with us." Maryse said.
"Why aren't we eating at the house then if we have that much food?" I asked.
"I am pizza out to be honest." Mike said.
"Did Mike just say he is tired of pizza?" I asked kind of shocked.
"Yes, I just said that." Mike said as our waiter came over taking our orders and left when Alex was playing with the collar of his turtle neck.
"It's so hot in here." Alex said looking over seeing him sweating from being so hot.
"Wait, is that a bruise on your neck?" Mike asked as I covered half my face hoping Alex can come up with something quick when Maryse was biting her lip trying not to laugh.
"Oh, I got bit from a spider last night and it is swelling up, it looks really nasty and didn't think you guys would want to see it." Alex explained.
"How and where did you get bit?" Mike asked.
"At the hotel…" Alex said.
"Did you get bit Addie?" Mike asked.
"You can say that." I said honestly.
"Where?" Mike asked as I pointed to the part where the mark was, at least it will be somewhat the truth. "Did you report it to the front desk or anyone?" Mike asked.
"No, we haven't been able to find the spider nor do I want to cause a problem." Alex said.
"You need to make a deal about it, if that spider bit you and Lord knows what kind of spider it is…." Mike said.
"Mike, it seriously isn't that big of a deal…it's a spider bite…" Alex said.
"Honey, if they don't want to make a big deal about it then they don't have to." Maryse said.
"I would complain honestly." Mike said as our drinks were given to us.
"I'll think about it." Alex said as we ate our dinner away as Mike continued discussing the numerous types of bites he had received from spiders or other insects.
"Must we discuss this over dinner?" I asked kind of grossed out.
"Nah, what do we all want to talk about?" Mike said.
"SummerSlam, it's coming up later this month." Maryse said.
"Is it? Are any of you going to have a match?" I asked as I took a bite of my food.
"I think we will…" Mike said.
"I hope so." Alex said.
"Alex, you will be welcomed to stay at our house during that weekend if you want…we have a fold out couch or I'm sure you can bunk with Adora." Maryse said.
"I won't go that far, but you can definitely stay at our place instead of dealing with the hotel accommodations." Mike said.
"Thanks, I will definitely consider it." Alex said smirking, and I was trying so hard not to squeal in happiness that Alex will be spending the entire weekend at the house, it will be sort of like living together.
"I would think they will start the planning already, I think there are two matches already announced…" Maryse said.
"Are they doing Axxess again?" Alex asked.
"What's Axxess?" I asked curiously since I had never heard of it until now.
"It's a convention type thing where we take up the whole block in front of the Staples Center and LA Live filling it with booths, the ring, and other memorabilia where the fans could buy tickets to come meet the stars and watch matches or the Q and A's that will be held in the ring." Alex explained for me.
"Last year I was doing the photo booth and it was before Alex was introduced to me as my Rookie." Mike said.
"I think I will be doing a booth." Alex said.
"Who would want to meet you?" I asked sarcastically.
"I think you would." Alex said as he leant over giving me a kiss lightly on the lips getting me to smile.
"Are you going?" Maryse asked looking to me.
"Me? I don't know…am I?" I asked.
"I don't know." Maryse said.
"I'll go…no one knows who I am…" I said.
"Yet…" Alex said as our food came, we all ate discussing SummerSlam and the Axxess part of it and I was kind of excited to go, I hoped I get to go and see what it is all about. I felt my phone vibrating but I ignored it because I didn't want to disturb our dinner with taking a phone call. We finished our meal heading out to Alex's car first where I grabbed my bag from the back seat, Mike and Maryse stood aside whispering as they let me say my good bye to Alex for the night. "You sure you don't want to come back and stay another night?" Alex asked smirking as he rested his hands on my hips.
"I would love too…BUT I got to go home and pack my bag for the weekend…" I said.
"Alright…well good night and I love you." Alex said as he leant down pressing his lips to mine for a soft kiss breaking it before I wrapped my arms around him hugging him tightly.
"I love you too." I said as I broke the hug carrying my bag over to Mike's car after they said good bye to Alex. I put my bag into the trunk smiling thinking about tonight and last night watching the city as we drove by it to the house.
"What hotel did you guys stay at last night?" Mike asked.
"I think it was the Marriott." I said not thinking anything of it as Mike nodded as we got home, I went to my room unpacking that bag and packing my new bag for the weekend before I pulled out my phone seeing the missed call was from Hunter. "That's never good." I said to myself as I called the voicemail hearing his voice, and he was never good at leaving these things, him and Shawn are the best to listen to over voicemail.
"Is it recording now?" Hunter asked.
"Did it beep?" Stephanie asked.
"Yeah."
"Then it's recording." Stephanie said as I chuckled.
"I can never tell….Addie, next time just answer the dang phone and stop ignoring me, because I know you saw it was me and was like 'Oh God, this isn't good…' anyways, I was calling to tell you that you have a creative meeting tomorrow at the arena and not at Connecticut because I know you won't want to go to Connecticut alone nor do I want to go there. You have to be there by 2 so make sure your posse can get there by 2. I already know Maryse is going want to play…" Hunter said as it clicked off, I just had to laugh as I deleted the message remembering I had to be there by 2 tomorrow. I walked out seeing Mike and Maryse on the couch playing some video game, Maryse rarely plays but you can get her into the game because she loves to play but isn't as competitive as Mike and I can get.
"Hunter called during dinner, I have to be at the arena by 2 tomorrow for a creative meeting. He said that Maryse can come along cause he knows that you'll want to play a part in it." I said, I assumed that was what he was going to say, as I sat on the arm rest watching the Mario Kart Race that was being played on the screen.
"What about me? Can I go?" Mike asked.
"He didn't say anything about you, so I'm assuming no." I said.
"Fine…I see how it is." Mike said pretending to be offended.
"I'm going to bed, we got an early morning…good night you guys." I said as I headed back to my room texting Alex an official good night and told him I loved him one last time before I texted Hunter telling him I got his message and that I'll be there before I fell asleep in my bed.
