Colby sighed as he walked into his shared hotel room. Its been another tough day at work with his team mates. More importantly, his best friends. Jon and Joe have been his only true friends since FCW, but he honestly didn't mind. He liked being around Joe and Jon, it made him feel safe for some reason.
He plopped down on one of the beds and closed his eyes for a moment, he knew his two friends weren't to far behind him. So when the door opened a few minutes later he didn't bother to open his eyes, he knew who it was. He just laid there, caught up in his own thoughts. Practically falling asleep, still in his Shield gear. "COLBY!" He jumped slightly when he heard Joe calling out his name.
"Ugh, what?" Colby said lazily. He sat up slowly, with his eyes still closed. He was genuinely tired, but he knew his team mates would wanna go down to the hotel bar. They always did.
"I've yelled for you at least ten times. Wheres your head today? Anyway, we're gonna head down to the hotel bar, you coming?" Joe asked as he and Jon finished getting dressed. He looked at Jon, then back to Colby. Waiting for a response. He gave up when Colby just laid back down, eyes still closed while doing so.
"Come on man, he's tired." Jon said, patting Joe on the shoulder while starting for the door. Joe really wanted Colby to come with, he enjoyed his company. He just shook his head and sighed, walking to the door to meet Jon. They both jumped slightly as they heard Colby yell after them. "Wait guys! I wanna come with you." He screamed, jumping off of the bed and heading towards his bag to get changed quickly.
Joe smiled to himself as he saw Colby's expression change from tired to his usual excited self. Colby was always so bubbly and happy, he was definitely the most hyper of the group. But Joe liked that about him, he thought it was cute. Colby finished getting dressed then started for the door. Once he reached his best friends he flashed them a sweet smile, then went out the door. Joe and Jon followed close behind.
Once down in the bar the three men ordered their drinks and started watching the football game on the small TV across the room. Jon and Colby were so into the game, but Joe couldn't help but to glance in Colby's direction every few minutes. Colby looked really good tonight. He turned his attention back to the game when Colby looked up at him, flashing him a warm smile. Joe blushed a little bit, in fear that Colby may have caught him staring.
After a few hours, double overtime and a couple Canadian beers each, the three men were ready to go back to their room. Jon and Joe were only buzzed. But Colby was off his rocker drunk, he could never hold his drinks. Joe chuckled as he watched the smaller man stumble as he stood up, out of instinct, Joe grabbed Colby 's arm and threw it over his shoulder. Helping him to his feet and out of the bar.
Jon walked way ahead of his two friends, he was eager to get to bed after this long day. He made it to the room way before Joe and Colby, he stripped down to his briefs and laid smack in the middle of the bed, falling asleep almost instantly. Usually Jon and Colby shared a bed, and Joe got his own. Given that he's the biggest out of the three. The two men made their way into the room, and almost immediately Colby noticed that Jon was hogging their bed. "I'll sleep on the couch." Colby stated, with a slight slur. He hesitantly made his way to the sofa, trying his hardest not to fall.
"Nuh uh, you're not sleeping on the couch. You can share with me." Joe walked over and slid his arm around the smaller mans slender waist. He helped him over to the bed and laid him down gently. Colby gave him an appreciative smile and snuggled into the pillow. Joe got into bed next to him, Colby slept on his left side, back turned to Joe. He slid in close to his friend and cautiously rested his arm around his waist, hoping that Colby wouldn't reject him. But he didn't, Colby was to drunk to even realize what was going on. Joe felt confident enough to pull Colby closer to him, and he gladly accepted. Joe pulled the blankets up over himself and his newly found cuddle buddy, soon they were both in a deep sleep.
