Chapter 16: Good Morning


April woke up and stretched her arms over hear head. She still had a smile on her face from her time in the shower and now she was sure she was more than ready for him to have her completely. She rolled over and didn't feel him there and shot up from the bed. She looked around the room and checked the bathroom and he wasn't there. She stepped out of the bathroom and caught Punk walking in the front door.

"Good morning" Punk smiled

"Morning" April said unsurely "Where did you go?"

"I went to get coffees" he said holding up two cups and putting them on the table

"Oh" April forced out "Thank you"

"You're welcome" Punk said giving her a quick kiss "Sleep ok?"

"Like a rock" April said to him "You?"

"I can't complain" Punk admitted "I like you sleeping on me"

"You're the best" April said to him sweetly "Thank you for spending Thanksgiving with me"

"There's no other place I'd rather be" Punk told her honestly "Maybe for Christmas you could come to Chicago?"

"I'd love that" April said to him "A nice cold and hopefully snowy Christmas"

"Good" Punk said to her

"There's something I have to tell you" April said to him "Well it's not something I have to tell you but I want to"

"Ok" Punk said nervously "What's on your mind?"

"You've been asking me what's been eating at me and it's really not a big deal" April assured him "But do you remember my necklace?"

"The one your grandmother gave you?" Punk asked

"Yea I think I lost it well actually I think someone stole it" April said to him and he listened intently "it's been missing since Jason spent the night"

"Really" Punk said slowly "Why didn't you tell me?"

"Because I know you hate him and you warned me about this" April rambled on "You were right I was wrong he's a thief he's been stealing from me from years and I'm not going to give him another dime"

"April-" Punk started

"I just wanted to believe in him" April admitted "I wanted to give him a chance like you had given me. Everyone deserves one and no one deserves to be homeless"

"I love this part of you" Punk said with a smile "You're a good person and you give back and I don't want you to change"

"I just can't believe he stole from me" April said softly

"Are you sure he did?" Punk asked as he felt the necklace practically burn a hole in his pocket

"Yea I'm pretty sure" April said to him sadly "It wasn't too expensive but it was really the only thing of value I had. Plus I think some of my DVD's are missing too"

"Well I don't know about your DVD's but…" he said pulling the necklace out of his pocket

"Oh my god" she said gasping "Punk" she sighed walking over to it "Where did you get it?"

"I…" Punk started and saw her sweet little hopeful face and forced a smile. Could he really crush her hope that there was still some good in the world? Did he have the heart to break it to her that her good friend was nothing more than a thief even if Punk would look great in the situation he simply couldn't break her heart like that "… found it under the couch" he lied

"Really? I checked there like ten times!" April said holding the item as if it was the only thing in the world

"Yea I dropped my phone this morning and when I went to reach for it I pulled that out" Punk shrugged "I threw it in my pocket before I left sorry"

"I can't believe you found it" April said and looked up to him. She reached up and kissed his cheek "You're my hero" she told him happily then skipped off to her room to put it away.


Punk headed into the bedroom and saw April safely tuck away her prized possession. There was just something about her in the morning that Punk loved. She just had this natural look and her hair was always wild which he loved. He leaned against the doorway and watched as she jumped a bit when she noticed Punk.

"What's up?" April asked him

"Are you really ready?" Punk asked her seriously and he saw her eyes widen.

"Right now?" April asked and Punk nodded "Yes" she said softly. Punk stood up straight and walked across the room to where she was and tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear, gazing into her eyes he knew that she was ready and he was finally ready too.

"Are you?" April asked hopefully

"Yea" he said softly and gave her a smile. He ran his hands up and down her side and with the stealth of a cat he tugged her shirt over her head and tossed it to the floor. "If you want to stop you just say the word" he said to her

"I promise" she said to him and he leaned down and kissed her. As he kissed her he directed her towards the bed where she fell butt first onto but Punk never broke the contact with their lips. April was laying flat on the bed and Punk was hovering over her he thought he'd take charge and walk April through this but like usually she surprised him and rolled him into his back so she was on top and straddling him.

April removed her lips from him and unclasped her bra. He sat up slightly and April helped him tug his shirt off. She leaned back down and began to kiss him deeply. The fact that they were nude on top and rubbing against each other turned both on even more. Punk's hands wandered down her back until they reached the top of her night shorts, he eased his shorts underneath and gave her ass a tight squeeze he pulled away from kissing her and gave her a quizzical look.

"You're not wearing underwear?" Punk asked

"They're like boxers" April giggled

"You slept next to me all night commando?" Punk asked as he tugged down her shorts and with her help fully kicked them off

"Yep" April said to him "I wanted to be prepared" she teased. Before she could kiss him again Punk rolled her over again stood up and stepped away from the bed. "Oh no" she warned "You're not running out on me again are you?"

"I'm never going to run out on you" Punk said trying to make eye contact but her being naked really distracted. She watched as he tugged down his shorts and boxers so they were both on equal footing now. He was already growing hard by just the sight of her and watched as she moved up the bed so her head was resting against the pillows. He looked at her briefly one more time before joining her on the bed. "Do you know how much you turn me on?" Punk asked kissing her softly as he ran one hand over her breast "You are so fucking beautiful" he said to her

"You make me feel beautiful" April told him truthfully

"No one has ever been with you" Punk said to her as he kissed behind her ear and moved his hand down her torso "No one else ever will be" he whispered into her ear and his dominance over her caused her stomach tighten.

"I don't want anyone else" April whispered as he began to kiss across her cheek until he reached her lips "Just remember that I'm not going to be that good I'm still-"

"You're going to be amazing" Punk smiled seriously "You're a blank canvas- you're my blank canvas" he said huskily against her throat as he left wet kisses. His hand that was reaching down her torso reached in-between her thighs and he could feel how wet she was already.

"I don't want to disappoint you" she admitted fearfully

"Nothing would disappoint me" Punk promised as he continued to kiss around her body. "Just follow your instincts" he reminded her again. "If something doesn't feel good you tell me"

"I will" she said as she began to sweat. She wasn't sure if it was from nerves or the fact that Punk was exploring her entire body with his mouth and hands.

"Oh god" he muttered against her cleavage "You're so wet already" he moaned moving his face back up to hers. He moved his body fully on top of hers without crushing her, which forced her legs to widen to accommodate his body against hers.

"Do you have a condom?" April asked and that halted his movements "Please tell me you have one" she said almost dangerously.

"Yes I do" he smirked "I almost forgot" he said moving off of her and walking over to his shorts and reaching for his wallet. "No going back" he said holding it up as he walked over the bed. She stood up so she was on her knees on the bed and almost eye level with him.

"I never want to go back" April said to him "I'm glad I waited for you" she said honestly and he was so happy to hear her say that. "I have no regrets"

"Ok" he said to her. He didn't get a chance to say anything else because April began kissing his chest and ran her tongue over his right nipple. Punk let her explore his body because he knew she needed this. He wanted her to be comfortable with his body so he let her take her time as she kissed and touched all around him. Once she started playing with his not very hard member he knew he had to stop her before he could enjoy himself. "Lay down" he instructed. She pulled away from him and laid out on the bed almost like a human sacrifice. She watched as he ripped the wrapper off of the condom and rolled it onto himself before joining her. "It's going to hurt at first" he warned and she nodded

"You're really…" she trailed off fully appreciating his size "…you know" she said to him

"Big?" he asked with a laugh and she nodded "Your body will get used to it" he assured her

"I trust you" April said to him. Punk cradled his body against hers and bent her right leg so it was wrapped slightly around him.

"I love you" he assured her and kissed her lips hoping the kiss would distract her from the brief pain. He slowly entered her and felt her body tighten out of instinct. He gave her body amount before he pushed in further.

"I'm ok" she said with her eyes closed

"I'm going further" Punk informed her but the way he said it put her at such ease. "I want to be as deep inside of you as I can get" he whispered causing her to smile but the smile was gone as he pushed as far as he could go

"Oh!" she yelped in slightly pain and he studied her face and waited for her to open her eyes.

"Are you ok?" he asked her and she nodded

"Move baby" she insisted "I'm fine" He began to slowly thrust and felt better about it once April began to move with him. Her previous tense face was gone and replaced with pleasure. Her sweet voice moaning made him want to move faster but he tried to remain as slow paced as possible. He felt April wrap her other leg around him and now she was in a steady rhythm with him. He felt her nails claw at his back and he began to quicken the pace and she clearly liked that. "Faster" she requested but he responded by flipping them over without breaking contact so she was riding him.

"Go ahead" Punk said reaching up and cupping her breasts. April began to slowly move on top on him and he moved his hands over to her hips to and guided her. "Oh fuck" he moaned enjoying this just as much as she was. Punk hadn't had sex in months so he wanted this to last for as long as possible but he wasn't going to last. He reached one hand over and began to massage her clit, which she seemed to like even more. He loved watching her face while he took care of her.

"Phil" she called out using his real name for a change

"Yea baby me too" Punk said and that's when he felt her tighten around him and release. Punk was very close so he quickly rolled her over again and with two more thrusts he hit his own climax.

April was out of breath as was Punk. He wanted to ask her if she was ok, how she was feeling- but he couldn't form a sentence. He felt her arms around his neck and legs around his waist keeping him buried inside of her

"I love this" April whispered against him "I love you being inside of me"

"I love you" Punk whispered kissing her lips "Thank you for letting me love you. You were so good sweetheart" he assured her

"You're so good to me" April said to him "Waiting for you was the best thing I have ever done. It means so much more to me and you were so gentle"

"Are you sure you're ok?" he asked her

"I've never felt so good in my life" April told him honestly "I can't believe what I've been missing out on" she giggled

"There's going to be a lot more of this" Punk promised "And I mean a lot" he added seriously.


After recuperating together Punk and April ventured out of the bedroom for food finally.

"My coffee is cold" she said sipping it and putting it down

"You want to go out to eat?" Punk suggested

"No I want to stay locked away with you" April said wrapping her arms around his waist from behind. She was only wearing his t-shirt and he was just sporting a pair of boxers.

"I've created a monster" Punk laughed as he placed his coffee in the microwave

"Are you complaining?" April teased

"No" he laughed turned around to face her

"I'm going to be at the pay-per-view on Sunday by the way" April informed him

"Good" Punk said to her "But why?"

"They're flying a few of us out for it" she shrugged pulling away from him

"Usually they fly out the people they're planning on moving up" Punk said casually

"I've only had one match" April reminded him

"Maybe they want you for something else" Punk said to her "Maybe they're considering making you a valet. You have the best mic skills out of everyone in NXT including the guys."

"I don't know" April shrugged "Who would I valet?"

"Beats me" Punk shrugged sipping on his coffee "But you'd be fine. They do this with a lot of the girls call them up as valets and let them wrestle in NXT"

"Cool" she said happily. Punk looked over to his now ringing phone and saw it was work.

"I have to take this its Paul" Punk said standing up with his phone

"Go ahead" April said to him

"Yea Paul" Punk said answered the phone and walking into her bedroom.

April was on cloud nine and just kept replaying the morning over and over again in her head. When someone knocked at her door she wanted to kill them for dare interrupting her afterglow.

"Hey April" Jason said to her

"What are you doing here?" April asked folding her arms

"You've left me a hundred messages" Jason laughed making an attempt to walk into her apartment but she held her arm up across the door so he couldn't answer

"You stole from me" April said in a disappointed voice

"Jesus Christ April" Jason groaned "You really think I would do that?"

"My DVD's and jewelry were all in place before you came over no one else was here" April said to him "I'm not even mad about it anymore I'm just hurt"

"Grow up April" Jason said to her

"You left me sleeping when I had my concussion" April hissed "I could have died!"

"You seem fine to me" Jason said eyeing her up "Real fine as a matter of fact. As a matter of fact I'd say little April finally popped her cherry"

"I did" April said smugly "It was amazing"

"I told you that you were missing out all of these years" Jason smirked

"You knew how much that necklace meant to me" April said sadly

"It was just a necklace" Jason sighed "I thought it held a lot of bad memories for you"

"You are such a piece of crap" April said in disbelief "You're not even denying it"

"I'll get it back for you if it's really that big of a deal" Jason said to her

"You don't have to because Punk already got it back" April informed him with a broad smile

"Oh the all mighty CM Punk saves the day for you again" Jason mocked "I'm sure he loved gloating over the fact that I'm having such a tough time I had to turn to stealing from my friends"

"Actually he told me he found it in the apartment and lied for you" April said to him "I know it wasn't in the apartment and yet to save me the pain of realizing what a shitty friend you are. He puts me first"

"Good!" Jason laughed "What do you want from me April?"

"I want you to stop asking me for money. Your sob story isn't going to work for me anymore" April informed him

"I'm going to pay you back April" Jason said to her "I got a new job and I don't want to have to owe you anything"

"Do you really think I'd hold the money over your head?" April asked him

"I would" He admitted "I'm not a charity case April I'll pay you back and it's going to be sooner rather than later so before you cut me out of your life completely just wait for me to get the cash back to you"

"I don't care about the money!" April yelled "I cared about you" she sighed looking at him "I don't want anything from you except distance"

"Look at you" Jason snorted "You get laid for the first time and now you're better than me"

"It's not about that" April said to him

"You let this WWE contract go to your head. You're not even you anymore" Jason said disgusted "Do you even have pants on?" he asked tugging at her shirt causing her to jump away from him. Before she could say anything else or slam the door like she wanted to she was pushed to the side and Punk appeared out of nowhere.

"What are you doing here?" Punk asked Jason

"April has been calling me nonstop" Jason said pulling out his phone and tossing it to Punk "Check the messages for yourself" he smirked. He laughed as he took the phone then threw it against the wall hopefully breaking it

"Get out of here" Punk warned pointing to the elevator "And if I see your face around here again I'm going to disfigure it out" he threatened

"She called me-" Jason started but Punk took a step towards him causing Jason to jump back "You owe me for a new phone" he said picking up the pieces

"I heard you fell into some cash I'm sure you can afford a new one" Punk mocked "If I find out you're asking her for money or trying to guilt her into anything you and I are going to have a huge problem"

"You have nothing to add April?" Jason asked looking past Punk over to her "You're going to be one of those girls who ditches their friends because they have a boyfriend"

"You're not her friend" Punk reminded him "She was your friend but you were never one to her. You left her when she had a concussion!" he yelled

"April?" Jason tried again but she folded her arms and looked away from him "Fine fuck you and you" he said to her and Punk and that's when Punk had enough and went to step towards him but April grabbed his arm as he watched Jason walk away

"It's fine" April said tugging him inside in the apartment and closing the door "You're shaking" she frowned

"I want to hit him" Punk said seriously chewing on his bottom lip. April saw how red his face was and had never seen him so angry before. He looked towards the door and then back towards her "Just give me a minute" he said walking to the door

"No, no, no" she said jumping in front of the door to block his exit "We just had the most amazing morning I'm not going to let Jason ruin it"

"His a disrespectful little prick" Punk spat "I just want to teach him some manners"

"Stay with me" April insisted "I'm done with him this is the last time I'll ever see him"

"Do you mean that?" Punk asked "You're not going to give him anymore money?"

"After he stole that necklace? No way" April said to him

"I told you-" Punk started

"I know what you told me and I love you even more for that but he admitted to it" April said to him

"Good! Let's have him arrested" Punk said to her seriously

"No just a clean cut" April said to him

"Fine" Punk said giving in "Seriously April don't give him another cent"

"I'm not" she swore "Now let's go" she said grabbing his hand

"Where are we going?" Punk asked

"I want you again" April said coolly

"So soon?" he said with a smirk. The way she could turn his mood surprised him.

"Are you sick of me already?" she asked

"Never" Punk said to her

"We can stay in bed all day as a matter of fact" April said to him "You're leaving tomorrow and I want to make the most of this time. We'll order in, watch movies and make love all day"

"That's very tempting" Punk smiled

"You have other plans today?" April asked

"I don't care if I had plans to start for the Blackhawks" he said to her "I like your plans more"
