ECSPUD One shots

Inevitable

Ethan Carter the third. When they found out who he was, nobody would talk to him, all running their mouths in a wrong way. The name Carter was already bothering the rest of the IMPACT roster because he is Madam Dixie Carter's nephew.

Unfortunately, he was a loner. Nobody even dared to be friends with him, even just being pro wrestlers, guess they all had the same mindset of him being a Carter. This went on for months since his arrival, regardless his character, charisma, in ring work, people still wouldn't talk to him unless there were cameras filming or something in which Ethan was already got used to.

Until a certain someone came in, his aunt recently signed the winner of the first ever British Boot Camp, his name is James Curtin, known as Rockstar Spud. He was too not likeable when he came in, because of his size. He was so small, everyone tends to mess him up. People say he wasn't the winner, it was rigged but Spud always kept his positive side, well, of course the others hated his Rockstar Spud personality in the ring but when he's not Spud, he is just James.

For Ethan, despite seeing how other people treated Spud, he sees the positive side of him but his mind would stay the same, being alone is what he does best. He wouldn't talk to anyone unless it's his aunt and that was it. One day, it changes everything.

Spud actually approached him to ask whether Ethan had seen his gym bag. "Umm, Mr Carter? Do you by chance know or seen my Gym Bag? I left it back at the locker room but...".

Ethan just stared right at his eyes, but he noticed the background change as he watched some guys were playing with the bag and kept it at the top of some light display stage, hoping for Spud not to reach it. "Wait here". Within seconds Ethan came back, he jumped up, he was tall enough to reach it. "Here. You're welcome". He shoved the bag to Spud and left, but when he walked away, his heart, why was it beating fast? He scoffed as that was their first encounter.

Months later, madam Dixie decided that Spud and Ethan should work together, since they look like the others wouldn't want to work with them so might as well put them together. "Hello Mr. Carter".

"Hey Spud". Wait, did he just say hey back? That was weird. After few discussions on what they 're supposed to do, on they went to the ring for their partnership.

This went on for quite some time, and Ethan? He liked having Spud around, somehow filled the gap inside him, he wasn't alone anymore, the other pretty much don't care what the two were doing anyway, tit was just the two enjoying what they're doing to entertain the audience.

Ethan remembered that one time the audience were really and actually chanting "Kiss your boyfriend!' and even "Where's your boyfriend!?". Shit, thinking about it, drive him nuts, wait, is he...falling in love with Spud? No way, how...

They had their ups and downs, they had fun, they had their rival matches. Including the hair vs hair match. He remember the night...blood everywhere. He wish Spud could stop but no, Spud not only keeps his character but he really shows how hard he wants to win too. He wants to show the whole locker room that he can fucking wrestle!

Unfortunately that was come to an end as he lost the match and his hair. Ethan didn't agree to do it but he had to, after the match, he check up on Spud and despite all that, Spud was back being all smiley potato. Ethan kept apologizing but Spud assure him that it stays in the ring..

It was nearly the end of 2017 and what news Ethan heard, changed his mind. Spud was leaving IMPACT. Despite what the company had gone through, Spud had told Aunt D that he decided to come home to his family and maybe find some alternative ways to get a job so they could cut labor cost and Spud rather see others still wrestle than him. For Ethan? It hurts to see him leave.

Spud was packing and Aunt D already gave him tickets on the next flight and Ethan volunteer to send him to the airport. Ethan, he...didn't know what to say but instead by the gates he pulled Spud to a long kiss. Spud was of course surprise but managed to kiss back before the 2nd announcement on the flight. That was it. He left..

*Months later*

Ethan and his Aunt D were at the airport like what? In the middle of the night. "Aunt D? Why are we even here? Its like 3am and we're not travelling? Cuz 1. No bags. 2. You're somehow happy. Is that good"

"Nephew, I assure you..it's going to make you happy too". Ethan sighed as he stared at anything he could stare until that one figure. The one person he wish that was inevitable, the one person that he truly needs to complete him. "Ethan? Go.."

Ethan got up and he ran straight through the crowd. Spud was getting his passport check and grabbed his bag until he saw him running. He waved at first but with the speed Ethan was going, he was terrified. "Oh god..."

With that he was then lifted up to the air and spun around. "Aahhhh...Ethan! Ok! Put me down! I missed you too!" he held tight to the Carter as he was afraid to fall.

"You're back! You're here!" Ethan put him down as they stared long into each other's eyes. "Yeah..I umm, got signed by WWE".

"Wait what? Me too! I'm in NXT though..you?"

"Woah...I'm on 205 live. As the General Manager"

"No shit..man. You look..." Ethan was speechless, before Spud was Spud...now..Hmmm, sexy Spud.

"You look stunning as always. I'm sorry I couldn't be online somewhere or send letters but I do have something".

Ethan shook his head. "No..I get it. You look handsome by the way". Spud blushed as he shoved his bag to Ethan. "Here's your gift". He tip toed, now he was a little taller? Not much but there is an inch or 2 increase and their lips reconnect. It felt way more explosive than before Spud left. This feels like they're not going anywhere. They get to workout. They get to do everything together now.

A silent throat clearance was heard. "Don't tell me Spud forgets his Aunt D". They pulled away, embarrassed as Spud hugs Aunt D. "Thank you so much for everything Aunt D".

"No problem Spud. Now. You two. Go make me proud when you're on WWE. I'm watching ok?"

"Sure thing". They both said and that as their journey to WWE, begins.
