Author's Note: This is it! The sequel (I'd say much awaited, but not really since only two people voted on the poll lol) to Weight of the World! This wouldn't be happening without x_Hardys_and_Horcruxes_x, although I had the idea for this sequel all on my own, it was her who asked me to write WotW so go and thank her by taking a look at her work. Hope you enjoy!

Sweet Sacrifice

Chapter One

Adam wasn't sure how long he'd been standing there, leaning against the door. At some point he'd closed his eyes and he suspected he'd even dozed off while standing but his eyes opened when he heard someone walking down the hall. It was Katya. She hadn't even been in her room the whole time.

She seemed a little surprised to see him there, and his heart ached a little when he saw the tear tracks on her face. He'd caused those. By making stupid assumptions and jumping to conclusions. He just hoped he could fix this now, shifting a little bit and straightening up. She'd paused in front of him, looking up at him with eyes that seemed just as tired as Jay's had earlier. She didn't speak, seeming to be waiting for him to step aside and let her through… but he didn't.

"Katya… I'm sorry."

"Adam… I can't do this right now." She said, shaking her head a little. He could see that her hair was ruffled and her eyes were red after her tears.

"Katya, please…" He said softly, but she pushed past him and disappeared into her hotel room, leaving Adam staring at the door. "I can fix this…"

Inside the room, Katya ran into the bedroom, slamming the door behind her and sliding down it as tears overtook her again…

Katya was awake again by the time Jay got back to the room. She certainly wasn't looking at her best but Jay doubted that he looked any better.

"Jay…" She said softly and he walked over to where she was sitting on the bed to take a seat next to her.

"You feeling any better?" He asked softly. She just shrugged in response and turned to look up at him. She was so pretty up close like this, even with traces of tears lingering on her eyelashes. For a moment he was a little taken aback by her perfect lips and he had to force himself to turn his eyes back to hers.

"Jay…" She repeated, though softer this time, and he leaned in a little, reaching out to coax some tear tracks off her cheeks. No one was more surprised than him when Katya leaned further into the touch, drawing close enough to his face to press a kiss against his lips. Despite his surprise, it was a perfect kiss and when their lips parted he took a deep breath, staring into her eyes.

"Do you love me Jay?" She asked him in a whisper, and god help him, he did.

"Yes Katya… I love you." He whispered back, suddenly feeling a sense of peace around them.

Katya smiled a little bit, "Please Jay…" She murmured before kissing him again. She didn't have to say anything else for him to understand. She needed to be shown.

He guided her back against the bed carefully, allowing his hands to gently caress her sides. His touch was different to Punks, though they did have a similar sense of care behind their touches, even if Jay's was stronger. She continued to feel that great sense of peace as Jay slid her shirt up over her body, fingers following in a curious trail. Somehow, Jay managed to be everything she had ever wanted or needed in that moment. He was strong, gently, caring but firm… they were becoming one. Soon she was only in her panties and it was her turn to reach out to Jay and remove his shirt with that same slow, exploring nature, fingertips gently caressing his skin.

When they were both down to their underwear, Jay leaned down to initiate a kiss himself this time and found the union of their lips just as perfect as before. When their lips parted again, Jay's eyes remained focused on her face, carefully pulling her bra straps down and running large, warm hands over her shoulders. Katya shivered a little and moaned, making Jay suddenly aware of the bulge in his boxers.

"You're so beautiful Katya," he murmured, letting his eyes drift along her body now.

The small smile that played on her lips at this sent tingles all through him and he could only watch as she reached out to free him from the constriction of his boxers. She bit her lip as she took his form in, letting out a breathy sound when he slid away her bra, followed by her panties. Now they were both nude and feeling the urgent need to be as one, for their bare skin to touch.

Jay leaned over her and she pressed up into him, letting their lips touch. Everything felt more urgent now, both of them reaching out to touch the other and caress their skin. When Jay entered her, it was heaven, her body arching up as they met in all the right places and did not stop until they were both spent.

Then they lay together under the thin sheet to prevent the cold from settling in. Katya was curled into Jay, head resting against his chest.

Finally, he spoke, "I love you Katya."

She looked up at him and smiled, still feeling peaceful, "I love you too Jay." She murmured, and it was not a lie. It was, however, confusing. She supposed that a part of her had always loved Jay, despite loving Adam too. Love didn't stop the guilt she felt though. And after saying goodbye to Punk all too recently it all felt a little confusing.

It seemed Jay understood this, "It's all a little intense isn't it?" He asked softly and she nodded and sighed. No doubt Jay felt similar, his split from Denise was still fresh and he was best friends with Adam too, of course. She did wonder though, if a part of Jay had always loved her but, knowing her love for Adam, settled for what he had with Denise.

"We'll work it out." He told her, and she believed him.

Not long after that she had left, knowing they needed time to work it out, and of course, there was Adam staring her in the face and making her guilt increase tenfold. Despite her guilt, however, she did not regret sleeping with Jay. Not one bit.
