An Affair to Forget Ch.1

After 4 years of dating, Jeff Hardy and his new fiancée Kelly Kelly were engaged to be married. His best friend Maria Kanellis had a huge crush on him, and secretly didn't trust Kelly sometimes. When she sees Kelly and Jeff's close friend CM Punk getting together, will the wedding be over before it happens?

AN: Rated M in later chapters, and uh, as always, I do not own any of the characters. Boo hoo.

At a WWE arena, the gang were going about their usual business...

Jeff was getting prepared for his match, when Kelly surprised him from behind. "Hey, Jeffro! Getting ready for your match?" she asked with a smile, wrapping her arms around his waist.

He smiled back. "Yeah, I gotta head out in about 20 minutes." he replied, slipping on one of his armbands.

"Well, let me help!" she exclaimed, massaging his shoulders. "How's that?"

He smirked. "Just what I needed, babe. Thanks." he replied, turning around and wrapping his arms around her while she sat on his lap. "Y'know, I still can't believe that after all this time, we're finally engaged, Kel."

"I know, babe!" she exclaimed, gazing at the diamond ring that he got her. "We're gonna have such a great life together. Like, I want us to move in a huge mansion together with a picket fence and I want it to be somewhere deserted, where nobody could find us!"

"Heh, maybe not too deserted. I'd still like to live close to Matt and our friends." he replied.

"Oh, we will, don't worry." she replied, gazing into his eyes. "I love you."

He smiled back and gazed into hers. "I love you, too." he replied before they shared a passionate kiss.

While they did, Punk came into the room. "Hey, dude, you got-oh, hello!" he exclaimed in surprise.

Startled, the two whipped around. "Yeah, knocking first is a really cool new idea, ever tried it?" Jeff asked sarcastically.

"Cute. Anyways, I figured that Kelly would be in here with you." he said.

"Me? What's going on?" she asked.

"Well, remember back on ECW where we had that storyline where you had a crush on me while you were with Knox?" he asked.

"Yeah." she replied.

"Well, just got word that Creative wants us in another storyline together. This time, you get ambushed in your next match and I'm supposed to come and save you. And you know where it goes from there." he said.

"Oh, wow, I didn't know that. When's this happening?" she asked.

"Uh, tonight, actually." he replied, looking at his schedule.

"Ok, Jeff, you won't mind this, will you?" Kelly asked him. "If we're in the same storyline, we're gonna have to spend a lot of time together."

"Why would I mind?" he asked, still holding her in his arms.

"Well, cause maybe you two are engaged and I'll have to spend like, tons of time with your fiancée." Punk replied.

"Listen, we've been good friends for a really long time and I trust you, ok?" Jeff replied. "Besides, you gotta do what you gotta do or else they'll fire ya."

He chuckled. "True that. Well, see you guys later." he replied, heading off.

"Well, this is news." Kelly replied, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Just like old times."

"Yeah, well, considering all the time you'll be spending with him, just remember me, ok?" he asked with a half smile.

"Are you kidding? You're the only man I'd remember." she purred, wrapping him in another kiss.


Later on, Kelly was out in a match against Michelle McCool, while Jeff watched from one of the TVs backstage.

While he was glued to the screen, Maria joined him. "Hey, Enigma!"

"Oh, hey, Red." he greeted back, flashing her a smile before looking back at the TV.

"Uh, y'know, you're gonna strain your eyes staring at that screen like that." she replied with a chuckle.

"Well, Kelly's on, so I don't mind." he replied, in a trance.

"So, how's wedding plans going?" she asked, quietly disappointed. "No setbacks or anything?"

"Things are actually going pretty good..." he trailed off.

"But..."

"Well, ok, we're kinda disagreeing on a few things. Like how she wants the wedding in her hometown, and I want it in mine, she wants to invite a whole bunch of people while I only want a few, y'know, things like that." he replied.

"Hmm." she nodded. "Well, I hope you two work things out."

"Thanks. Hey, I really hope you'll show up cause you're my best friend and the wedding won't be the same without you." he said with a smile.

She smiled back. "You kidding, Enigma? I wouldn't miss my best friend's wedding for all the skittles in the world!" she exclaimed.

He laughed and gave her a hug. "You're the best, Ria." he replied, while she practically melted in his strong embrace.

"Thanks, I know." she smiled. "Anyways, I gotta meet Candy, Eve, and the others. See ya around! And Jeff?"

"Yeah?"

"Just for the record, if I were Kelly, I'd think about choosing the wedding in a place where we'd both agree on." she smiled before heading off.

Thoughtful, he gazed back at her before looking back at the TV. Out in the ring, Kelly finished Michelle off with the K2. While her hand was raised in victory, Legacy's music blasted from the stereo, and Randy Orton and his crew headed down the ramp. "Congratulations, Kelly, congratulations. But I hope this little victory of yours isn't gonna make you forget about what you did to me that other night." he said, while Kelly looked confused. "Look, sweet cheeks. Nobody, and I mean nobody defies Randy Orton, and after what you did, I should just lay you out for an RKO right now. Ted, Cody, hold her down, will ya?" he asked. Terrified, Kelly tried to escape, until the two pinned down her arms so that she couldn't move. She desperately tried to get away while Randy was setting up to RKO her. Before he could, though, Punk's music blasted from the stereo next, and he speeded down the ramp while Ted and Cody let go and slithered away. Then, before Randy could attack, Punk lifted him over his shoulders and GTS'd him, sending him to the ground. After that, he approached Kelly and asked, "You ok?"

Still startled, she nodded. After that, she looked up at him before wrapping her arms around him in a hug, and he hesitated before wrapping his arms around her.

Soon after that, the two joined Jeff backstage...

"Hey, guys, nice work out there." he told them.

"Thanks." they replied.

"Yes, and I bet you wished you were me out there holding Kels in your arms. So I return her to you." he replied, heading off.

"Well, thanks," Jeff replied, leaning down to give Kelly a kiss. "But I have to head out for my match next, so we'll have to wait a little longer. Sorry."

She smiled and ran her fingers through his hair. "Just win for me, babe. And I'll give you a special reward later on."

"Well, then I'll have to kick my opponent's ass and get back to you as soon as I can, then." he smiled devilishly, wrapping her in a passionate kiss. "K, I'll see you in a few."

"Good luck!" Kelly called.

"Later, man." Punk called while he headed off. "Well, that was fun, wasn't it?"

"Yeah, kinda like old times, right?" she agreed.

"Totally. Hey, uh I have a couple of extra Pepsi's here, you want one?" he asked.

"Oh, I LOVE Pepsi! Sure!" she agreed.

"All righty then, one for you and one for me." he replied, handing her one.

"Thanks. Y'know, I always thought that you were so defensive of your sodas that you'd kill whoever even tried to take em." she said with a chuckle.

"That's actually true, but for you, I'll make an exception." he smiled.

She smiled back and toasted her drink with his. "Cheers." she told him.

"I second that!" Punk chuckled, toasting with her.

"Now hush for a moment, I want to see the rest of Jeff's match." Kelly replied, still looking at the screen...and glancing back at Punk...and then back at the screen while he chuckled lightly.
