I DO NOT OWN ANYONE OR ANYTHING IN THIS STORY BESIDES THE OC'S.
Tara's Point of View-
I was about to pull my shoes on when the door connecting Alex and my room opened, Alex was carrying the whole phone receiver, not just the part that you put up to your ear but the part that was connected to the wall as well.
"Do you mind?" I asked.
"No, not at all….you want something from room service?" He asked as he moved the phone away from his mouth as he asked.
"What about Family Feud?"
"That's not until 2ish."
"I'll have a cheeseburger." I said, I knew it was something simple and that majority room services have it. He nodded as he walked back into his room, I climbed onto my bed scooting in as close as I could to the wall turning the television on flipping through the channels until I found Criminal Minds.
"It'll be about a half hour until they can get it up to us." Alex said as he walked into the room leaving the door open, I am assuming so we can hear the knock all the way into our room when it arrives, Alex climbed onto the bed beside me getting comfortable and wrapped his arm around me.
"How does that Family Feud work? I understand what Family Feud is but how does it work with you guys?"
"Five of us stars compete against five lucky fans that get chosen, we all have to answer questions about the wrestling promotion or the stars of the promotion."
"I'll assure that the stars would win, but then again you are on their team." I said as his arm hung over my shoulder.
"I can be smart…"
"Can be are the two key terms in that sentence."
"I just choose not to be, life is too short not to have fun."
"Nothing is wrong with having fun." I said smiling as I looked over making eye contact with his beautiful brown eyes peering back at me.
"How often do you have fun?"
"Everyday."
"Why do I not believe you?" Alex asked giving me a questionable look.
"Because you know I'm lying and know that I am nothing more than a workaholic."
"Has this weekend at least been fun?"
"Nope, someone by the name of Alex has ruined it." I said smiling as he climbed on top of me tickling me in the spot he accidentally found earlier.
"Really? Your laughing now, are you having fun yet?" Alex asked.
"No!" I exclaimed as I was kicking trying to get him off of me.
"I'm not going to stop tickling you until you say that your having fun." Alex said as I was trying to pull his arms away from my body but he was getting in random tickles.
"I'm having fun!" I exclaimed as he smiled his wicked smile, "What is with that smile?"
"You are truly having fun hanging with me aren't you?" Alex asked smirking and all of his facial features lighten with happiness.
"Not as much as you are."
"Who said that I was?"
"You implied it." I said when a knock came to the room next door knowing that it must have been room service.
"Lunch." Alex said climbing off my lap and started to climb rest of the way off the bed.
"No, that's the door." I said jokingly, Alex turned giving me a dirty look and I gave him a joking smile. Alex walked over to his room answering his door and got the lunch for us, I maneuvered myself to where there would be room to sit my plate in front of me. Alex walked in carrying the plates with a cover on each plate.
"Cheeseburger for you and cheeseburger for me." Alex said setting the two plates down on the bed, one in front of me and the other in front of where he will sit, "I'm going to go down to the vending machine to buy a drink, you want a drink?"
"Where are the vending machines?"
"Opposite way of the elevators…want to come?"
"Sure." I said climbing off the bed trying to make sure that I don't knock anything from the plates off, he grabbed my hand helping me off the bed before we headed towards the door and I bent over to grab my wallet from my purse real quick before we headed out of the room. Alex grabbed my hand stopping me, I turned to look at him and he gave me a dirty look.
"You don't need that, I got this." Alex said smirking, I went to grab it with my other hand but he grabbed my other wrist pulling me away from it.
"Alex!" I said not liking it as I was getting pulled closer and closer to him as he was walking backwards to the door.
"Listen to me woman, I got this." Alex said as he reached behind him pulling the door open and pushed me out into the hall.
"Aren't you wrestlers supposed to be eating healthy?" I asked randomly.
"We do during training but we all promised that this weekend would be splurge days so we are enjoying the heck out of it."
"What kind of diet do you stick to?"
"Why do you want to know what I eat?"
"I need to be on a diet." I said patting my stomach.
"If you need to be on a diet, I can fly to the moon." Alex said as he pushed me down a hall and into the first room on the right that had different vending machines in it along with an ice machine.
"You can do anything you put your mind to."
"Psh, like they will let me go to the moon, but come on, how awesome would that be?"
"You would find it amazing." I said looking over the different snack choices before moving over to the two or three soda machines they had.
"Like you won't?"
"Oh I would find it absolutely amazing." I said as I looked over the vending machine as Alex inserted money into the machine.
"Would you be able to handle it?" Alex asked as he pushed the Mountain Dew button.
"That's why they have the training…you like Mountain Dew?" I asked intrigued because that is the soda of my choice, I always drink that whenever I can.
"It's my anti-drug." Alex said.
"You know it is rumored to decrease a man's sperm count."
"Well, I lost my thirst for this, here." Alex said handing it to me.
"Yes!" I said before he put more money into the machine pushing the Pepsi button this time.
"Did you say that so I won't want to drink that?"
"It wasn't intended for that sole purpose but it just happened to go that way."
"I'm curious if that is even true…"
"Look it up on Wikipedia, they know everything." I said as he grabbed his Pepsi in the basket below before we headed back to our rooms, I let us into my room as he was looking intently at his phone reading the information that he must have found.
"It doesn't say if it does or doesn't, don't want to risk it on my spermies." Alex said as I just burst out into laughter, I would have done a spit take if I had a drink in my mouth.
"I have never heard a man say that word…please use little soldiers from now on." I said as I got comfortable on my bed putting my soda between my legs so I could hold it.
"I'll try…what are we watching?" Alex asked as he put his soda on the night stand beside him and put his plate onto his Indian crossed legs and put the cover on its top in front of him.
"Criminal Minds, I'm addicted to this show."
"Gideon or Del Rossi?"
"Either, you?"
"They both fit well, it's hard to pick what one is better because all episodes of this show are so good." Alex said.
"I've seen this episode, but it never gets old."
"Don't ruin it, I haven't seen it yet." Alex said.
"I may have to ruin it." I said as I pulled the top bun off my cheeseburger taking the lettuce and the tomato off of my cheeseburger.
"What are you doing?"
"I don't like lettuce or tomato on my cheeseburger."
"It's good for you though."
"I know, but I just don't like it on my cheeseburger."
"Fine, more for me then." He said as he grabbed it off my plate putting it onto his cheeseburger.
"Have it all you want." I said as I put the bun back onto my sandwich before I begun eating it, we ate our lunch watching the episode of Criminal Minds, but the time was not allowing us to finish the episode because we had to go to Family Feud, but by that time I was folded into Alex's embrace with his arm wrapped around me resting on my bicep holding me in his embrace resting my head on his shoulder.
"God, I got to get going." Alex said in a dreadful voice as he checked his phone that was now sitting on his leg.
"Yeah, I don't want you to be late."
"Your making me late."
"Don't blame me." I said sitting up from his embrace even though I wanted to sit like that for rest of the night.
"I will and I can." Alex said as he stood up setting both our now empty plates onto the desk that hasn't been used all weekend, I climbed off the bed behind him, I grabbed my things sliding my shoes back on following him out and we sped walked down to Family Feud he had to be at. I stood in the back of the room watching fans one by one get chose for the fan team to play the first round of Family Feud, needless to say the team Alex was on had me laughing due to their stupidity, it was Alex, Robert, James, another wrestler by the name Eric Young and one girl named ODB, which I have no idea what the letters stand for. The game lasted than any of them expected, Alex met me in the back as the fans were slowly clearing out for them to set the room up for game night. "They are setting up for game night, you want to go get Chris while I stay here to help them set up?" Alex asked.
"Yeah, I guess he must be dying having to be locked up all day."
"It'll be good for him to come hang with us."
"Good for you or him?" I joked.
"Me." Alex said smirking.
"I'll be back." I said as I walked out of the room to let Alex help them set up game night, I tried to remember how to get to that room I had just left as I was heading to Chris's room, I knocked on the door not expecting him to answer the door anytime soon.
"Hold on!" Chris exclaimed from inside, I patiently waited for him looking around seeing numerous people walking around and smiled as they all walked by, I noticed when the door opened and begun shutting, I grabbed a hold of the door before it shut all the way and tried to help Chris who was using his wheel chair surprisingly to get through the door. "Where's Alex?" Chris asked.
"He said he was helping set the games up."
"Alex never helps set anything up."
"He may have changed…are you even going to be able to perform these games?" I asked grabbing the two handles pushing him.
"I will sure as hell try my best."
"I wonder what games there will be."
"I hope they are fun ones, and ones that I could at least play." Chris said.
"Just try to have fun, it's the last night here on the cruise." I said smiling and hoped he won't be a Debbie Downer all night, and I knew he usually wasn't like that.
"I'm the life of the party, I have fun everywhere."
"I bet you are." I said rolling my eyes as I pushed him down a ramp before making a very sharp turn to go down the hall almost tipping him.
"Damn, you trying to kill me?" Chris said holding tightly onto the two arm rests.
"No…I promise I have pushed people in wheel chairs before, you have been in them before." I said.
"Without any accidents?"
"Besides that one time where…" I began saying jokingly.
"Don't try to bust my balls."
"Okay okay, I've never wrecked a wheel chair and haven't had any complaints thus far from anyone including you."
"I guess I'm more nervous with us being on a boat and rolling away, specifically overboard."
"I won't allow it to happen, if it does I will jump in after you." I said as I opened the door pulling him into the room where the game night will be taking place.
