Chapter One : In the Morning
Xxxxxxxxxxxxx
The bright sun pierced through the hotel room windows, making Jeff Hardy slowly squint his eyes open. He immediately regretted the gesture, seeing as the sun as well as his heavy hangover made him wince painfully. The alcohol definitely hadn't worn off.
I'm never drinking again …
He tried falling back asleep, but his dizzy head and urge to vomit prevented him from doing so. It was at that moment that he felt a light pressure across his chest. Slowly forcing himself up, he painfully opened his eyes and almost choked at what he saw.
A single, thin arm lay gently on his chest, and it was definitely female. He could tell from the red nail polish.
Jeff searched his mind to try and remember bringing back a woman to his hotel room. But he couldn't remember anything from last night, not after the 12th shot of tequila John Cena convinced him to take.
Making sure it was his room, the younger Hardy slowly slipped the cover off the woman's face, scared at who he might find sleeping in his bed. First he saw a mane of long, auburn hair, splattered around her face.
If it's Melina I swear I might hurt myself …
Thankfully for Jeff, it wasn't Melina. Instead, he found Maria Kanellis sleeping peacefully in his bed.
Although relived, he couldn't help but feel very shocked by the situation. Here was Maria, a beautiful and charming Diva that he had never really gotten to know, sleeping next to him with her arm across his chest. And he didn't know how she'd gotten there.
Carefully trying to slip out of the bed, he froze when he saw her moving. She took her arm off of him and turned to the other side, stuffing her face in some more huge pillows.
Happy he hadn't woken her, Jeff staggered all the way to the bathroom, trying to be as quiet as possible. He figured that a nice shower would help heal the hangover, and maybe help him think of what to tell Maria when she woke up. But what would he tell her? He really couldn't remember anything from the night before, and he didn't know the girl all too well either. Even though he'd always found her exceptionally beautiful, and friendly, and even though they had more or less the same circle of friends, they'd never gotten close. What's more, rumor had it that she was having an affair with a man Jeff respected very much, CM Punk. How was he going to explain this to him?
Only at that moment did Jeff notice that he was completely naked. Feeling his jaw drop, he quickly opened the bathroom door again to take a peak at Maria … and the first thing he saw was her clothes scattered across the floor.
"Shit!" He said a little too loudly.
Making sure Maria was still asleep, he closed the bathroom door again. He sighed loudly, before making his way in the shower like a defeated man.
Now he really couldn't believe what he'd gotten himself into.
"This is not good …"

There you have it, the first chapter! Sorry it's a little short, but don't worry, I have a lot of things in store for you people :) :)
I'll be posting a longer Chapter Two very shortly. In the meantime, here's a little preview.
Maria wakes up: how will she react ? And what happens when a certain Superstar "overhears" what might have happened between Jeff and Maria ?
Stay tuned for the next Chapter !
