Her hand stroked the white bandages on her lover’s chest. She let out a sigh before slipping out of the bed quietly. Alexis stretched, hearing her bones crack back into place from the events that took place last night. Xandor was back, he was really back. She smiled at his sleeping form before walking out into the kitchen. Xandor was back in her arms and she will die before she let that man leave again. She gritted her teeth at the thought of the person who had kept him from her.
Her father.
He had attacked Xandor and knowing her father, he left him in this state knowing he would come to her. There were only two things that had made Alexis ever feel fear like that. Her father when she was a child and the other would have been last night. Seeing Xandor there, his life force slowly draining out and there was nothing she could have done. After he had passed out, she cradled him in her arms, applying whatever pressure she could to his chest. She knew then that she would do anything to break whatever ties her father had to send him back to the hole he had crawled out of.
Alexis had finished producing a nice size stack of French toast when Xandor stumbled into view, holding his chest. He flashed a smile before doing a dramatic smelling of the air.
"That smells delicious!"
Alexis motioned him on over with a towel, "Well pop your sweet ass down and dig in."
When Xandor came over, Alexis gave him a peck on the lips before sticking some toast on his plate. After he got situated, she got herself some food and plopped down in the chair across from him.
"I like this," Xandor spoke after he had mowed down his first helping.
"My cooking?" Alexis asked as she poured more maple syrup over her French toast.
"Yes and no," he replied, grabbing another stack and killing it with the syrup, "You could serve dirt and I would still love it. But I was talking about this."
He mentioned to their surroundings with his arms, flinging some French toast on the floor. Their living vacuum came over and ate it before she sat, wagging her tail for more food.
"I was beginning to forget how much I love being with you. So much so that these wounds don't hurt."
Alexis smirked, "It’s called pain medication. It's what twenty first century medicine does nowadays."
"You know what I mean," Xandor replied before stuffing his face again.
Alexis smiled and watched him eat for a moment. She would have thought he didn’t have anything to eat by the way he devoured the food. Though knowing her father, he probably did keep him away from food the two days he was gone.
After the meal was devoured and the dishes were cleaned up, Alexis and Xandor retired to the couch. Alexis curled up under his arm and rested her head softly on his chest as Xandor turned on the television. They were like that for the next couple of hours until Gabriella knocked on the door.
"Hey love birds! Is it safe for virgin eyes to come in?"
Alexis let out a laugh, "We're decent if that’s what you mean."
Gabe opened the door and smiled at the two of them.
"Glad to see you made home, Xandor" Gabe said as she headed over to the computer.
"Glad to be home. Thanks for watching over her, Gabriella."
"No problem and would you stop calling me Gabriella! It's Gabe to you, Xandor."
Gabriella flipped the computer to life and turned in her seat to look at the two.
"I need to talk to Lexis about her upcoming match with Molly Mayhem; one of NEW’s finest women wrestlers. You can stay or you could get the sleep I know you didn’t get last night," Gabe said with a wink.
Xandor smiled and was about to open his mouth when Alexis replied.
"Actually Gabe, I beat you on this one. While I was waiting for Xandor to come back those two... excruciating days, I did manage to get some research in."
Gabe raised an eyebrow but allowed her friend to continue.
"Molly was, at one point, the NEW World Champ. She’s now in the Limbo of Wrestling and she knows it. She will be fighting with tooth and nail for any and every hold she can get in our match. Plus the fact that the rumor mills have been running crazy about some guy named Johnny, who must have been a wrestler here in NEW," Alexis paused before a shadow drawn on her face. "I am not sure what happened but they are no longer together. It sounds like Molly really fell for this guy so I don’t think it isn’t just the career limbo that's affecting her. She may be trying to show the other wrestlers that she isn’t getting buried by her emotions; that she will get her 'Mayhem on'."
Alexis turned to rub her thumb on Xandors cheek for a moment.
"In a way, I can understand her in that way. When I first started in ACW, I was just another faceless wrestler. I was buried in bills with my house in Oregon and was desperately trying to to keep it from foreclosire," her hand paused before she laid her head back down on his chest, "That's when Xandor came to ACW. Since the first time I saw him debut in the ring, I knew he was going to change my life. Of course I thought it was just going to be in my wrestling career and not my entire life."
Xandor leaned down to kiss the top of her head, "You weren’t the only one who changed paths. You’ve affected mine just as much as I have yours. I think it's beyond fate that we're together at this point of our lives."
Gabe leaned forward, her elbows on her thighs and her hand cradled her chin.
["So far I haven’t seen the spark in you. You’re not going to let her win because of what she had been through... are you?"
Alexis smirked and shook her head.
"Hell no Miss Sassy pants. I am just saying that this will be a match of the edges. Two skilled wrestlers, dogging it out for the win, neither one wants to be the loser and both want to come out victorious. Molly Mayhem has her own tainted fire that is slowly burning brighter as people keep throwing debris into it," Alexis paused, her eyes twinkling at the upcoming match as she worded her next sentence carefully.
"Two roaring flames will clash; the brighter and the hottest of them will devour the other one."
