The Motion

#TheMotionFanfic [Chapter 3]

Drake: They kicked us off the show.

Averie was in her kitchen making pasta as Aubrey sat in the living room and took off his Timbaland boots.

Averie: What do you mean?

She sat a plate of pasta in front of her niece, whom she was babysitting and walked to the living room and sat beside Aubrey.

Aubrey: We walk in and our stuff isn't there. There was a staff meeting and they decided to hire a whole new cast. (With air quotes) A whole new generation.

Averie: Oh. Oh wow. I'm sorry. (Rubbing his shoulders) I can't imagine how that feels.

Aubrey (Not making eye-contact): I gave that show 8 years. And they're just going in a different direction. They were auditioning kids while we were there.

Aubrey stared off angrily. Averie looked at him then her niece.

Averie: Umm. Can't you sue or something?

Aubrey: They owe us a lot of money but its fine. That's just the motion, right.

Averie's sister came to get her daughter interrupting their conversation temporarily. When she got back to him, Aubrey was grabbing his shoes.

Averie: Wait where are you going?

Aubrey (Getting up): I can't be around anyone right now.

Averie (Stopping in front of him): You can't be alone. You hate being alone and I see it.

Aubrey signed and rolled his eyes.

Averie: I'm not gonna try to shrink you. You're tense. If you stay, I'll give you a massage. Some wine, I'll try and make this day less shitty.

Aubrey wasn't used to a softer side of Averie unless it was sex. He needed something to take his mind off of things so...

Aubrey: Why not?

30 minutes later in Averie's bedroom, Aubrey's shirt was off and he was on her bed. She was on top of him rubbing his back. She was an heir to her mother's business' success, which was the success of massage. The lights were low and Averie was using some soothing lotion she'd had.

Aubrey: This...feels...good.

Averie (Rubbing him): I know things. I know that today was horrible so I wanted to try to make it better.

Aubrey rolled over, forcing Averie to the other side of the bed. He sat up.

Aubrey: You did that because you like me.

Averie: No.

Aubrey smiled and scooted closer to her.

Aubrey: Yes.

Averie (Rolling her eyes): What are we ten?

Aubrey: No. Way past that.

Averie: This is dum-

Aubrey: What if I kissed you right now?

Averie: What?

Averie wasn't trying to seduce him but what Averie was doing to Averie was working.

Averie: What are you doing?

Averie held her hands out, stopping Aubrey.

Aubrey: What?

Averie: I'm not trying to get in bed with you. I'm trying to comfort you. I thought we weren't gonna get into this.
