Homecoming Queen (Such a Shame, Shame, Shame)

Kiss it Better

"WAKE THE FUCK UP!" Rikki snorted and rolled out of bed, smacking into the floor, groaning and crawling for the door, opening the door to none other than Astro and Ryan.

"You bastards I was sleeping. Why are you heeeeerrrreeeeee....?"

"We decided to surprise you two! we thought it'd be nice."

"Definition? My lovely husband to be wanted to see if you and Bam were bumping uglies."

"Astrid, this is important to me. In case you haven't noticed, I'm not exactly good at the making friends thing." Ryan shouted, Bam sitting bolt upright in bed before screaming and running to the front door, slamming it in Ryan and Astro's faces.

"NO TIME TO CONVERSE WITH DUNNS, MY FACE IS COMPLETELY BROKEN AND I'M ABOUT TO- one minute." Bam held up a finger and darted for the bathroom, returning moments later with his forehead in his hands. "What happened last night?"

"Well, you become a six year old when you drink tequila, you face planted in the casino and gained a bloddy nose and sore face, and if I'm guessing correctly, you're nursing the god of all hangovers." Bam nodded slowly and slinked over to the couch, Rikki hauling herself to her feet and opening the door for Ryan and Astro. "Sorry, our own little hobbit drank himself sick last night and can't handle the after effects."

"RYAAAAAN.....Hold meeeeeeee." Bam whined, waving his arms around, Ryan raising an eyebrow before patting him awkwardly. "Close enough. Rikki. Pain pills please assistant Sex-On-Legs?"

"Stop calling me that." Rikki said, lobbing the bottle of pills at Bam. "So why are you two really down here?" Ryan shrugged and pointed at Astro.

"We were supposed to be looking for somewhere to go on our honeymoon here, but Ryan just had to check in on his Heterosexual Life Partner." Bam and Ryan grinned and waved at each other, Astrid and Rikki just shaking their heads.

"For the record princess, I was thinking about staying here, but after realizing this is the kind of place Bam goes to get drunk, I suggest we go to, I dunno, Hawaii?"

"Shut up, we can't afford that." Astrid said, sitting up and grabbing Ryan's hands.

"Well not now.... But I am in a movie, and Bam decided that he'd give us our wedding gift early. He just didn't figure this early."

"Lucky for you two, I bought the tickets when we flew out." Bam groaned and slid off the couch, walking over to Rikki's purse and grabbing a stack of papers. "Two first class tickets, reservations for the honeymoon suite, and Rikki's gift thrown in would be this." Bam grabbed a paper from the bottom of the stack and waved it around. "How she managed to convince her cousin to send this hot ass piece of machinery down from Italy is beyond me." Bam handed Ryan a picture of a shining black motorcycle with red racing stripes.

"It's to replace the one I put in the lake." Ryan grinned, he'd known about the Hawaiian honeymoon, but the new bike was a surprise. "That's also your birthday and friend-aversary gift for the next four years. Happy BirthWedAversary." Ryan jumped off the couch and hugged Rikki, Astrid jumping up and down before throwing her arms around Bam.

"You two are like, the coolest parents that are younger than us ever."

"Hey, calm down and have her back by two young man." Bam joked, Ryan and Astrid smiling widely.

"Wait, seriously?"

"No, go back to West Chester and get that motorcycle. You get that one early, but those tickets won't do you any good until after the wedding." Rikki stated, Astrid leaping on Ryan's back and pointing at the door.

"TO THE AIRPORT! AWAY!" They all laughed, Ryan ducking to get Astro out the door and into the elevator, setting her down only after he'd hit the button. "That was your plan the whole time, wasn't it?"

"I couldn't afford what you wanted myself, so I did some odd jobs for Bam. He was just going to give me the money but I wanted to work for it so I at least felt like I earned it. He gave me half of what we needed and I scraped together the rest from my savings."

"Awwww, Superman! How long were you two planning this?"

"Since last year, I finally worked off the money I owed him." Ryan said, Astro jumping up and kissing him excitedly.

"You're the best Fiancee ever."

"I'm the only fiancee you ever had."

"Good point." They laughed as the elevator dinged, informing them that they had reached the ground floor. The pair exited, Ryan running for the car, convinced that the faster he ran for the car the sooner he'd get to West Chester. Back upstairs, Bam had returned to the couch, laying down and rubbing his face while Rikki scampered around the kitchen, making a bowl of cereal.

"Riiiiikkkkiiiiii. My face hurts."

"Well now you know how I feel, because it's always killin' me. Hush up and let me eat."

"Rikkiiiiii. Kiss it better." Rikki sighed and sat down her spoon, Bam sporting puppy eyes and an out of place grin. "Pleeeeeeeease?"

"Bam, I'm not going to kiss it better."

"Find me a pretty girl to sex it better then." Bam groaned, his arm over his eyes now. Rikki glared and tossed her spoon at him, smacking him in the chest with it. "Owie. Now you have to kiss that better too."

"If I come over there and kiss you, can I eat my goddamn breakfast in peace?"

"Maybe."

"Good enough." Rikki grumbled, leaving her cereal bowl and sitting next to Bam on the couch before hauling him up by his shoulders and pressing her lips to his softly, careful to avoid bumping his nose, she'd do that later when he inevitably pissed her off. Bam smiled into the kiss, this was way too easy. He, in his mind, was now winning in the little games Rikki played with him, and was proud of that fact. Rikki pulled away much too soon in his opinion, patting his head with a condecending smile. "There, is the whiny little bitch feeling better?"

"Kinda." Rikki narrowed her eyes before a slight grin spread across her face, her left thumb tracing the shape of his heartagram tattoo while her lips went back to his. Bam smiled and kissed her harder, hands resting above her hips, not realizing that this was Rikki's retaliation, her attempt to put herself back in the lead in the game she'd made up, Bam was getting ahead, and Rikki wasn't going to let that happen. 

"There. Now you're better." Rikki stated after pulling away from Bam, her thumb still tracing the tattoo lazily.

"Please don't stop doing that." Bam said, a grin on his face as Rikki reacted as he expected, hurling a pillow at his head. "Fine, sorry I asked." Bam rolled over on the couch to sleep off his hangover, this meant war.
