AJ leans up on her elbows and searches Mike's face. He blinks back at her lazily, trailing soft touches over her shoulders. "What is it?" he wonders after a few more moments.
"I don't like it," she huffs. "All of these people talking about my husband's balls week in and week out. And now you have a shirt. Obnoxious."
He laughs and shrugs. "I know, it's weird. Well, hopefully after Summerslam, people find something else to obsess over." He strokes her back. "I'll try to get a better shirt soon."
She pouts at him. "You'd better," she huffs, rolling over onto her side away from him. "So Maryse is going to be on Raw tonight?"
"Yeah," he sighs. "The finale of Miz and Mrs. is on tonight. Then I guess we'll be doing our own thing until we hear about if there's a renewal for another season through the network. For now, I think she's just more concerned about Heath. He's going through a lot with Rhyno being injured, and everything going on with Honor No More in TNA." He hovers over her and presses a slow, warm kiss to her spine. "Hopefully things will quiet down for us too, especially with media."
"Yeah, I would like that," she muses. "How are things going with Ciampa?"
"Really well so far," Mike says with a shrug. "I know I've talked a little bit about tagging with Logan Paul again, but I'm perfectly fine with things the way they are. I get along better with Ciampa anyway."
"Never would've imagined that even a few months ago," AJ muses. "Especially considering his past with Gargano. I just wonder, between his past and yours, who will betray who first."
Mike scoffs and rolls his eyes, tugging her closer, hugging her. "Yeah, yeah," he mumbles. "I suppose we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. But it is kind of nice, he's still kind of finding his footing on the main roster and now I can help him get settled in ways no one ever bothered to help me back in the day. It's kind of nice."
AJ does roll over at this, lacing her fingers behind Mike's neck, playing with his hair. "I'm glad you have that now. I know it's always been a rough subject for you. Being able to help someone up and coming, especially someone who's not really well-liked by many, yeah. I can see how it'd be cathartic. "
"Yeah." Mike sighs, squeezes her. "Yeah. That's a good way to put it." He kisses her. "You should write another book, you always have such a great way with words."
She chuckles. "Maybe. Maybe someday I will." She ducks down and kisses him. "But for now, I'm content with what I'm doing. Between WOW, and being a mother to your two very hyper children, and my mental health advocacy, there's always a lot to do. And to make sure you stay on the straight and narrow. is a full time job," she informs him, poking him teasingly.
"That is true," Mike sighs. "And I appreciate everything you do."
She smirks, kissing him. "I know you do," she says softly against his lips. "I know."
