A Very Angels Holiday: Part Two - Christmas Morning
It was Christmas morning, and Lady Christina's doorbell rang. She looked over beside her and said, "Wonder who that could be this early? I'll be right back, honey." She descended the curved staircase and saw her butler, Colin, showing in her guest. She was delighted to see Cherry standing at the foot of the stairs, although she was a little concerned given her company in her bedroom.
She threw her arms around her in a sisterly embrace, "Cherry! Merry Christmas! What are you doing here…so early?" Cherry smiled and presented her with a box wrapped with a purple bow, "Hey there, Sis! I can't stay long, but I wanted to give you your present." Lady was touched and started to untie the ribbon, "You didn't have to get me anything. But a pair of diamond angel earrings? These are so beautiful! Thank you! So, did you get my gift?"
Cherry said, "Two front row tickets for The Mavericks at the Ryman & backstage passes? Hell yes, I did! I love you! You know me too well!" Lady looked inquisitive, "I'm glad they arrived without any problems. So Cherry, who are you taking with you to the concert? Anybody I know?", with a raised eyebrow. Cherry knew where this conversation was going, "Hmmm maybe you do… but maybe not.", as she stuck out her tongue.
Lady was wanting the truth from her. She, like Christine, had noticed Cherry's withdrawn nature outside of work for some time as well, "Ok girl. Come clean. Who is he? I know you've been seeing someone in secret. You're not exactly hiding it well. Is he, say, about six foot five and a half with long black hair and beard, with dreamy eyes and dimples? And I'm willing to bet he's laying naked in your bed right now."
"And you're talking too much to Christine. Nothing is going on. I'm just…" That is when a very familiar Irish voice called down the stairs, "Oh my Lady! Get back up here and let me give you another present, love!" Cherry looked at Lady trying desperately to suppress a laugh but failing miserably, "Well well WELL! Looks like the Lady is a tramp for an Irish guy with nice suits and cheesy grins!"
Lady shut her eyes and sighed, "We were talking about your secret lover, not mine! Look, I'm pretty sure I know who it is, so just give Drew my best when you get back home. OK?" Cherry narrowed her eyes, "You know that psychiatry Jedi mind trick thing you pull has never worked on me. Look I have to go give Christine her gift and…um…get back to my family." Lady looked cynical, "Don't you mean your lover?" Cherry turned towards the front door shouting, "Bye! Merry Christmas! Oh, and Ladybug, next time tell Kevin to park his Volvo in the back. Parking in the front is a dead giveaway.", giggling as she walked out
A few minutes later at Christine's place, the Diamond Building, Cherry was greeted by Christine and Sheamus, both looking disheveled and well loved. Cherry handed Christine her gift in a box wrapped in a black ribbon. Christine was thrilled when she opened the package, "Cherry! Oh my god! A black diamond Phoenix ring? Thank you!" Cherry shrugged, "I saw it and knew it had your name written all over it." Christine remembered, "Wait! I have something for you upstairs. I'll be right back."
As she climbs the stairs, Sheamus looks at a Cherry with that knowing look, "So Lass. How's that Muppet best friend of mine?" Sheamus had found out about Drew and Cherry's love affair several months prior, but was convinced to keep it a secret from the group, including Christine, by Drew. She said, "Oh, the same as always. He's sexy, hot, hung, incredible in bed… Shall I continue?" Sheamus looked disgusted, "Ugh! Please don't!"
Cherry laughed, "Hey! You asked!" Sheamus got a serious look on his face, "Listen, she's starting to suspect something is up with ya two. She keeps asking me what I know. Look, I'll never rat you out, but it's hard ta lie ta her. I love her and I know she loved ya guys. If there's anyone on this earth that would support ya two, it's her and Lady." She sighed, "I know. I hate keeping anything from them. I'm just not ready to reveal this to anyone. Honestly, Sheamo, I'm starting to doubt how Drew really feels about me. He calls me "my love" all the time, but he's never told me he loves me. I went through such a heartbreak not knowing where I stand in a relationship before. I can't be hurt like that again." Sheamus also had access to all of the Angels personal files. He knew everything about Cherry's terrible previous relationship. Honestly, he always wanted to find the fucker and rip his throat out.
Sheamus gaped at her, "Are ya daft? Lass, he's crazy about ya. Yer all he talks about when it's just me and him. He tells me all the time yer the one fer him. I know he's in love ya, Cher. Just be patient with him. He hasn't exactly had the best track record with that either. He's been hurt too." She nodded, "I know you're right. He does show me how he feels all the time. And he makes me feel like I'm loved. It would just be nice to hear him say it."
Christine came bounding down the stairs, "What are you two dorks talking about?" Cherry said, "You. And it was all bad." Christine rolled her eyes, "HaHa! Here's your present, CherBear." As she unwrapped the small box, Cherry looked up at her, "CherBear? Really?" She opened the box to a beautiful solid silver bracelet lined with red rubies.
Cherry hugged her dear friend, "This is gorgeous! Thank you." Christine smiled, "That's not all. Look at the inscription inside." Cherry turned it around and had to fight the tears from coming to her eyes, "'The heart wants what the heart wants…' Christine, I don't know what to say." It was as if Christine had been able to read the inner turmoil she had felt for the last three years. Christine took her hand and shrugged, "I saw it and knew it had your name written all over it."
After getting her gift, Cherry drove back to her home, back to Drew. She had left him asleep, naked in her bed, just like Lady has guessed. She hoped that was still his current state of undress when she returned home. The inscription on her new bracelet imprinted on her brain, with her heart telling her, "And what I want is to marry Drew and give him lots of babies."
As she headed back home, she couldn't help but think of the first time she met him on the road two months after they had started their love affair. It was an encounter so hot and beautiful, it made her realize just how hard she had fallen in love with Drew Galloway. It was the first time she told her hunky Scotsman those three magical words, the ones she longed to hear him say to her.
Ten Months Earlier - Houston, TX
A month ago, Drew talked to his favorite backstage producer, Shane Helms, about a favor. He arranged to have a front row seat in every town reserved for someone special. He knew she had her own life in Nashville that kept her busy, but he couldn't get Cherry off his mind. He told her that he would leave a ticket for her in every town until she joined him on the road.
And so, he did. At every venue, there was a special front row seat saved for Drew's guest. And every night for the past month, she hadn't showed. She always said she was busy with other assignments, but he knew the real reason. She was trying to keep what they were doing as secret as possible.
But it wasn't like she was out of place in his world. She and the other Angels were constantly backstage. After she and Drew were spotted holding hands in his hotel the night of the RKO Incident, it was decided that Cherry would accompany him to movie premieres and other outside WWE events to keep up the guise of being his girlfriend. Neither of them minded this at all as those nights after the event would find them fucking each other's brains out.
Cherry was Drew's special Angel. He knew from the moment he met her she was someone special. She was hot, flirty and fiery in the bed. But she also had a sweet nature and a wicked sense of humor. To him, that was just as sexy as the love they made every time they were together. That was becoming a more frequent occurrence since they started their secret love affair two months prior. He was finding more excuses to tell Kevin for being in Nashville on certain weeks. The other weeks, she would slip away to be with him in Tampa.
She had tried to call things off at one point. She didn't want her job compromised. But he was never going to let that happen. He didn't want to be without her. Every piece of them fit together perfectly and he didn't feel complete unless she was wrapped in his arms, spent and flushed after he had rocked her world again.
He had fallen in love with her the moment he met her. But, for as big and strong as "The Scottish Warrior" Drew McIntyre was, Andrew McLean Galloway IV, the real man behind the dynamic, brutish character, was scared of getting hurt again. He was still terrified to say the words "I love you" to anyone because of…her.
Taryn Terrell, who had been known as Tiffany in WWE's version of ECW, had said those words a lot during their short marriage from 2010 – 2011, but she never meant them. Cherry was nothing like that cold, crazy bitch! But his heart was still guarded, even ten years after their divorce. Instead of telling Cherry how he felt, he decided he would show her at every possible opportunity.
As Drew woke up in his cold, empty hotel bed in Houston, TX early that morning, his longing for Cherry was evident by his painfully aching erection. He grumbled to himself, "Oh damn it! Baby, I need you so bad!" They had not seen each other all week. He had been on a press tour with WWE for the upcoming pay-per-view, and she was busy with security detail setup for the huge Billy Joel concert at Nissan Stadium for that Thursday. He decided to tempt her into coming on the road with him. He smirked as he knew just how to do it.
Cherry was sitting in her living room early that Saturday morning with her usual morning cup of black tea. She was missing Drew terribly and pouting. "I fucking hate when he's on the road!", she thought to herself. She had missed him so bad this past week. She had kept herself busy with work. They also had a video chat every night, which included some steamy phone sex. But it wasn't the same as having his sexy, warm body next to hers and feeling him move inside her.
Speak of the devil, that very same handsome Scottish devil texted her, with a picture of his gigantic, engorged erection saying: "Come to Houston and relieve this for me tonight, my love. I have a seat with your name on it." She laughed at the cheeky double entrandre, but sighed and ached for his gentle but commanding touch.
He did this every weekend in every town he was in. He told her he was leaving a ticket in every town for her until she joined him on the road. Fuck, she wanted to be with him so bad! But she had be careful with her job. She didn't want to compromise his safety or that of Kevin and her sisters, Christine the Phoenix & Lady Christina. She knew they would never judge her and would probably encourage her to follow her heart.
But that was another thing. Many years in an emotionally damaging and abusive relationship had her guard up as well. But the gorgeous, sexy as sin Scotsman found his way into her heart as easily as he did into her bed. He was such a hot, amazing lover. But he had a beautiful sweetness and charm that she couldn't resist. And she tried to resist him. She truly tried to deny her feelings for him. But it was impossible. She couldn't stay away from him. She didn't want to.
She looked at the text again. She licked her lips and moaned at the sight of that giant cock she craved incessantly. She knew if she met him on the road once, it wouldn't be enough. It would become a regular thing, just like when they would secretly meet through the week. It was a dangerous game she would play if she started going down this road. She smiled and said to herself, "What the fuck."
Later that evening, Drew and Sheamus were talking backstage in the Toyota Center in Houston. Drew was in a grumpy mood. Sheamus noticed pretty quickly, "Mate, what's going on in yer head? You've acted like an ill hornet all afternoon." Drew waved him off, "It's nothing, brother. Just not feeling it tonight." Sheamus said, "It wouldn't have ta do with the fact that we haven't been able ta see the Angels at all this week, is it? Let's see. Ya saw Christine the other day and she couldn't stop ragging ya about 3MB. Lady Christina took the Oklahoma City assignment fer Roman Reigns. So that just leaves… Ah! Ya haven't seen Cherry all week!
Drew rolled his eyes, "Can ya please just give it up? There's nothing going on with us." Sheamus huffed, "Right. And I'm gonna start getting a spray tan. Just admit ya have feelings fer her!" Drew was getting ready to tell him to fuck off when he caught an earful of a passing conversation between Dolph Ziggler and Bobby Roode as they came back through the curtain after their match with The New Day. Dolph and Drew had an icy relationship in recent years after being friends and tag team partners for a spell. Dolph resented Drew's push; Drew thought Dolph was an asshole. Dolph said as he passed by, "Holy shit! Did you see that hot ass redhead on the front row? I'm gonna have to find her after the show and let her have a ride on my dick! Fuck me!"
Drew got angry for a split second. "The fucker better not be talking about my girl!" But then he remembered she wasn't there. "She would've told me if she were coming ta see me. Goddamn it! I miss her so much!", he said to himself. He looked at Sheamus and said, "Let's just go over our match for later. And stop looking at me like that!" Sheamus couldn't help but laugh, "Ya should've seen yer face when Ziggler said "redhead"! Drew narrowed his eyes at his best friend, "Dick!"
As Drew was waiting in gorilla position to go out for his match, he was approached by one Viper, Randy Orton. Drew immediately tensed up, ready for a fight. They had not seen each other since the night of the incident due to being on different brands. Randy looked Drew in the eyes and spoke quickly, "You don't have to give me that death look. I just want to tell you…I'm sorry for kidnapping you. I no longer believe you were the one that stole my title belt." Drew looked wary of his adversary, "Yeah?"
Randy looked down, "And I'm sorry for sleeping with…you know who…all those years ago. I hope you will accept my apology. We don't have to be friends, but I hope we can work together and be civil and that's you'll accept my apology." Drew couldn't believe his ears! This wasn't the same cold-hearted shit that was such a prick to him for all of the years they had worked together. Drew nodded, "I can't say that I completely trust you, but I accept yer apology."
Randy said, "Fair enough. Thanks." He started to walk away but turned around, "Hey Drew!" When Drew caught his glance, he thought about warning him about Taryn. But he thought, "Nah. Not my fight and don't want anymore to do with her bullshit." So, he just said, "Good luck. And that cute redhead that kicked me in the dick? You two would make a great couple." Randy briskly walked back to the locker room area, leaving Drew confused.
Later, it was showtime! The main event will pit "The Scottish Warrior" Drew McIntyre against his arch rival and "former" best friend, "The Celtic Warrior" Sheamus! The crowd stood and cheered for the announcement. Sheamus came out first, acting in his normal heelish behavior in his coat and bowler hat, getting lots of boos from the WWE Universe in attendance. As he got up on the turnbuckle to taunt the crowd, he looked in the front row. He caught sight of a redhead in a lowcut red dress in the front row on the opposite side. He couldn't make out the face, "Wait! Is that…nah! Can't be! Kevin would've told us if she was coming ta work the event."
Then, the familiar war drums of "Gallantry" blared over the sound system. Mike Rome, the ring announcer, said, "And his opponent! From Ayr, Scotland! Weighing in at 265 pounds, "The Scottish Warrior" Drew McIntyre!" Drew stepped out from the back, brandishing his sword, Angela, named after his dear late mother. With his normal confident strut down the aisle, Drew played to the crowd, getting them pumped up. He was in his element. Here, he was living the dream he'd had since childhood. He got up on the turnbuckle for his normal hoist of the sword with the fire pyro on the other three turnbuckles. As he nodded his head to the beat of "Gallantry" and popped his pecs, he scanned the crowd to the front row seat he had saved.
And there she was! After months of begging her to join him on the road, his love stood there like a vision with a knowing smile on her face. Cherry was here with him in Houston, TX. She was always with him in his heart. His happiness was visible on his handsome face. He smiled at her and gave her smirk and wink. It was a promise that, later that night, he was going to fuck her into oblivion.
Cherry's heart started beating faster as she when her eyes locked with Drew's. "My god, my man is so fucking hot! And he's all mine!", she thought he gave her that smirk and wink. She knew what that meant. He had given her that look many times in the last two months. She bit her bottom lip in response, her way of telling him that she couldn't wait to get fucked into oblivion.
Knowing that his beloved Cherry was watching him caused Drew to be even more full of beans in the ring than usual as he and his best friend beat the shit out of each other for fifteen minutes. During a rest hold, Sheamus asked, "What's up in ya tonight, fella? Why ya got that permanent goofy smile on yer face as yer kicking my ass?" Drew chuckled and said, "Let's just say I have extra motivation in me tonight, mate!"
After a 3-2-1 Claymore, Drew won the match. He walked around the ringside area meeting, high fiving and taking selfies with fans. As he passed by Cherry, he looked at her, wearing that red dress that drove him nuts. He couldn't wait to take it off of her. He leaned in to her and whispered as he passed by, "I can't wait to be inside you, my love.", and winked at her. Her heart literally started to flutter and she nearly came at his words and the sound of his voice.
As he went back to the locker room shower, he texted her his hotel and room number and said, "Gimme an hour to shower and get to my room. I can't wait to be in your arms, love". He ran into Sheamus on the way to the locker room, who said, "Hey! Some of the guys and I are gonna hit the Applebees fer dinner. Come go with us." Drew shook his head, "Nah, mate, Gonna go back ta the hotel and get some extra sleep."
Sheamus said, "It's funny, but I thought I saw Cherry out in the audience tonight." Drew shrugged as he walked away, "Must've been your imagination, brother. Later!" Now, Sheamus was more suspicious than before. Drew was acting strange and had been some time. Since the night of Randy's antics. And he was certain the redhead he saw in the front row, and the one Dolph was drooling over, was Cherry. He vowed to find out was going on with his best friend.
After stopping in the hotel bar for a drink, trying to calm her anxious nerves, Cherry stood outside room 623 of the Hilton. She took a deep breath and knocked on the door. Before she had time to think, she was pulled into the room by her hand. Her back was up against the door and an already naked and hard Drew was kissing her with a violent passion. His tongue invaded her mouth and he started roughly stripping her of her clothing.
Her hands were interlaced in his long hair as he ripped her lace panties off. She gasped and he lifted her with ease and practically threw her on the bed. He growled, "Fuck! I need to taste that sweet pussy, baby! Spread those legs for Big Daddy!" She happily obeyed his request, and he set his mouth on those already wet folds and ate her out like her was starving to death. His tongue worked its magic, running along the inside of her lips and circling her clit. She screamed, "Oh Drew! Oh fuck!", as she came several times on his beard.
He licked his lips, sliding up between her thighs, as she writhed and groaned with a smile, "Jesus, I've missed you, baby!" He grinned as he kissed her deeply, spreading her thighs even wider and entered her with one hard and heavy stroke. He stopped with that, kissed her on the lips lightly, and said lowly, "I missed you so much, my love." She dug her nails in his back as he picked up the pace, leaving scratches in their wake. He chuckled, "Damn, love! Did ya sharpen yer claws?"
He kissed her as he pounded and stretched her pussy, rolling his hips upwards to rub her core with the tip his head. She whimpered, "Fuck! Drew, "I'm so close. I'm ready to cum!" He looked in her eyes, his lost in a storm of passion, cried out to her, "Cum fer me, my love! Oh god, ya feel like heaven!" She shattered into a million pieces as she reached the highest of pleasure screaming mumbled nonsense. But he caught one thing she said as they both orgasmed, "Goddamn it! I love you, Drew!" His heart burst with love at those words as he released his seed deep within her, grunting and panting as he tried to catch his breath.
He rolled over still inside of her, taking her with him as they kissed the deepest, longest, most beautiful kiss that has ever been shared between two people. Cherry looked up with a satisfied, sated gleam and said, "I meant what I said. I love you, Drew." He cupped her cheek and kissed her fingertips, "My love. I'm all yers forever."
Cherry fell asleep straddling him with her head on his chest. He stroked her hair and kissed the top of her head. He sighed with happiness and he realized, she was in love with him! She felt the same way he did about her. He knew she was the one for him always. And the thought of this feeling and her ever leaving him scared Drew to death.
