A shower can be heard cutting off as a small light shines into an otherwise dark room from a door opening up. Stepping out from behind the door wearing only a towel with his hair still wet is the IC Champion Alex Cross. He walks across the room and pulls the covers back just a bit before sliding in leaving the towel on the floor. He pulls the sheets up and scoots across the bed laying his arm across a female form and gently brushes her hair to the side before softly kissing her bare shoulder.
I hope my actions at Heatwave don't concern you. What happens in the ring stays in the ring I promise. To you I'm the same ole Alex and I always will be. I hope the actions I've chosen don't affect us. I can't bare to lose you again.
Turning her head, Munin looks at Alex with sleep heavy eyes.
"Don't take this the wrong way love, but what are you talking about at..."
Pausing she glances at the red light of the nightstand clock.
"One forty five in the a.m?"
Snuggling back into the covers she gives a jaw breaking yawn. Alex kisses her shoulder once more.
I take it you missed the ending to Aftermath. Let me put it to you like this, I'm not the champion and I'm pretty sure Leon wants my balls in a vice and not in the good way. I'm sure Nathan isn't too far from wanting that either after tonight.
"I don't watch the show till we watch it together lately. I only get notified if your hurt..."
A small huff of laughter can be heard, smothered by the blankets.
"Leon wants everyone's balls in a vice at one point or another, even if they don't have balls. So that's nothing new..."
She peeks out of the covers at him.
"Why would that make me angry?"
Alex sits up in the bed.
My actions after the match were a little brash to some people. I took out my frustration and anger on Leon and left him battered in the ring and probably with a few bruised ribs to boot. As for Nathan I'm sure he'll be nursing a sore arm for a bit as well. I guess you could say I've had better nights in that ring.
"And you were expecting me to be upset? Perhaps give a few words filled with righteous sanctimonious indignation?"
Good point. Perhaps I overestimated your reaction a bit?
Sitting up in bed slightly, she temporarily gives up on sleep.
"Love I am many things but hypocritical is not one of them. Besides that, what happens in the ring stays in the ring, and what happens between you and Leon is just that between you...and Leon. He wouldn't appreciate me being upset on his behalf or interfering, and while I love you, when he retaliates it will still be between you and him...None of my business."
You're right, of course most of the time you are. Probably why I keep you around so much.
He winks at her as he nudges her arm playfully. With that she snuggles back down into the blankets. She returns his wink with a sleepy smile.
"Among other reasons...what did you do to Nate's arm?"
I hit him with a Kimura armbar and tried to break his arm off and feed it to him. That bastards pretty tough though so I doubt I did much more than strain it and piss him off in the process.
"Meh, everyone has to have their "I don't like what you said, so I'm going to beat you with your own arm" moment at some point in their career."
True, hopefully it got their attention though.
"Hmm, don't forget Travis comes home tomorrow, and we celebrate our Christmas the next day."
I won't forget. He's dropped enough hints over the past few weeks about what he wants it'd be impossible to forget. And yet you haven't told me one thing you want for Christmas Ms. Munin.
"That's because I'll be sappy with whatever you given me. What I want most at this moment though is sleep."
Another yawn albeit smaller than the lasts seems to punctuate this statement.
Well we've got a big day ahead so get some sleep and we'll figure out what to do with Christmas in the morning.
"That sounds like a plan."
He leans in and kisses her lifts softly.
I love you.
"I love you too..."
Good night.
"Night"
Alex lies in the bed quietly staring at the ceiling as Munin nestles in close to him, lying her head on his chest as he wraps his arm around her shoulder. Lost in his own thoughts the IC Champion looks down at the woman sleeping beside him and can't help but smile at her. Not wanting to wake her he whispers softly to himself.
You don't know how much I love you or how much you mean to me Munin. You mean everything to me and I don't know what I'd do if I ever lost you again.
He leans forward and gently kisses the top of her head before closing his eyes and drifting off to sleep.
