"I can't believe this. I never actually thought Jeff would settle down." Gilbert Hardy told his oldest son Matt as they waited for Vanessa to walk down the aisle. Matt just shrugged. He had other places that he would rather be. The wedding march began and Jessica, Jes, and Phoenix walked out in light yellow dresses. Misty followed in a pale rose colored dress. Finally Vanessa was walked down the aisle by James Lawson, Mist's father. She looked a little uncomfortable in the wedding dress, but the minute her eyes landed on Jeff she smiled and didn't even think about the dress. The love she had for him shone through in her eyes. Her hair was flowing in waves down her back, and it was completely blonde. When Vanessa and Jeff had said their vows and kissed, everyone cheered and twelve year old Brooklyn ran up and hugged her father and stepmother. She had her last name officially changed to Hardy only to months prior to the wedding date.
The wedding went off without any problems. The wedding reception was being held at Matt and Jessicka's. When the bride, bridesmaids, and maid of honor disappeared for twenty minutes no one blamed them when they came back wearing shorts. Skirts, halters, tank tops, and flip flops. Vanessa grinned when she saw that her husband had changed as well. It was also common knowledge that the women hated wearing long dresses. Which could be why three of them had eloped.
"You know the last wedding we actually had a ceremony for…" Phoenix, Jessica, and Misty looked everywhere but at Jessicka. "…three kids were born. Thank god this one went off without problems." That comment caused several people to laugh and several to roll their eyes.
"I agree with my sister." Adam commented.
"Yeah well your sister is a bitch." Heads turned and a tear slid down Jessicka's face. Taking a look at her husband she swallowed her pride, got herself together and began to speak.
"Me? Where the hell have you been the past five months? Have you forgotten that you have a wife? A daughter? When's the last time you came home Matt?" Jessicka said angrily.
"Maybe if you thought of someone other than yourself…"
"Me? Are you as stupid as you sound right now? I have kids that I take care of. Grace is in school, and all day I take care of Delilah. And then when Grace gets home…"
"Maybe you wouldn't have to take care of kids if you hadn't spread your legs."
"If I remember correctly you seemed to like it." Jessicka yelled back. The whole place had gotten completely silent and someone had had enough common sense to remove the children from the house and take them outside.
"Apparently so did… lets see Jeff, Brian, Paul, Shannon…" Matt said listing names.
"You have no right…"
"Oh and lets not forget this one… Randall Keith Orton."
"Don't ever mention that son of a bitches name in front of me again."
"Oh I'm sorry did I strike a nerve?"
"It's over Matt, I can't do this anymore." Jessicka said turning and walking away. Everyone stared after her and shaking her head Lilian Garcia, one of the girls closest friends on the road, went after her. Normally she wouldn't have but she slapped Matt as she walked passed him.

Phoenix was sitting with her head on Adams shoulder. She watched as Lucas, Delilah, and Krystina played. At ten months old they were all crawling and trying to walk. They were chasing each other and playing with the blocks that John had brought for Krystina. Misty was watching as Xavier, Brooklyn, and Grace chased each other around playing tag. She felt a slight pull in her heart when she thought about what her ex-husband and obvious asshole Matt Hardy had made her give up. When twelve year old Brooklyn ran into somebody she thought that she was in trouble.
"You okay Brook?" Jeff Hardy asked his daughter as he helped her up.
"Yeah, sorry… dad."
"It's okay just be a little more careful next time." Jeff said smiling it was the first time that she had called him dad. He didn't know if his day could get any better. He watched her run off to play with her cousin and Xavier. He smiled as he felt Vanessa wrap her arms around his waist.
"Never thought I'd get married." She told him
"Same here" he turned so that he could see her. " But I'm glad that we did." He said then kissed her. They broke apart when Matt walked over.
"I'm leaving." Was all he said before turning and walking away. Five minutes later Phoenix cried out in pain before collapsing. Amidst the following chaos someone called an ambulance and it was somehow decided that Gilbert and James would stay behind with the kids. Adam however refused to leave Lucas behind.

Jessica, Jessicka, Vanessa, Misty, John, Jeff, Kevin, and Adam all looked pretty somber as they waited in the hospital waiting room. Adam was holding his son close. He knew that he was loosing his wife. They all knew it. A few hours went by and just as Jessica finished checking in with Gilbert a doctor walked out.
"Mr. Copeland?"
"Yes?" Adam asked after picking Lucas up out of his carrier. He needed to hold his son.
"I'm sorry but we lost your wife…" Adam felt his heart break into a million little pieces. "… but we were able to manage to save your daughters life. She is three months early but if you would like to see her please follow me. You can not hold her yet. For being born early she is extremely healthy. Is there anyone you would like to bring with you?"
"My sister, Jes." Adam said handing Lucas to Misty. Jessicka and Adam walked away and when Jes looked up she saw that her brother was crying. They stopped in front of the infant ICU and washed their hands, and put on surgical masks and hairnets, and gloves. She was the only baby in their and she was beautiful. Adam looked her and smiled. She was hooked up to machines, but she was still beautiful to him.
"She's beautiful." Jes told her brother.
"She wanted to name her Carmandy Paige Copeland." Adam said quietly.
Whoa…
I
wonder how am I supposed to feel when your not here
Cause I burned
every bridge I ever built when you were here
I still try…
Holding
on to silly things… I never learned
Oh why??!!
All the
possibilities
I'm sure you've heard…
That's
what you get when you let your heart win
whoa!!! That's what you
get when you let your heart win
Whoa... I drowned out all my sense
with the sound of its beating
and that's what you get when you
let your heart win

Matt Hardy walked into his house and wasn't all that shocked to find it empty. Jessicka had probably already moved out. She was also probably over at his brothers because that's where the birthday parties were taking place. Krystina, Lucas, and Delilah were all turning one today. It would be an anniversary party too but he and Jessicka's divorce had been finalized a month ago. He had given her full custody of their daughter. He sent a check to her brother for 1000 dollars a month for child support. This was the first time in months that he had been here. He walked up stairs to the master bedroom. There was a note on the desk written on blue notebook paper. He immediately recognized Jessicka's handwriting. He sat down on the bed to read it.
I can't take this anymore you're never here. I can not love a man I no longer know. I don't know what happened to the Matt Hardy that I married and I no longer care. He was obviously a lie. The things you said at your own brothers wedding were rude and was you calling the kettle black. Because baby I'm not the only one that cheated. If you don't want kids keep your dick in your pants. You broke my heart but not my pride. My heart will mend in time.
You lost more than me you lost your daughter. You once told me that the girls and I meant everything to you. Was that a lie too? I hope you're happy now. You didn't go to Phoenix's funeral. Were you too busy with Maria? Yeah I know who you were sleeping with. Was it worth it because now your family is gone.
I hope I can leave you with this. Every time you walk into the bathroom picture this: me sad because you weren't there. I thought about killing myself but would only make a small slice in my wrist. The first time was when SHE called for you. I would always wish I had what the other girls had. A man that would come home from being on the road. Me and the girls are gone and we left you here in this empty house.
Grace says that she doesn't want Delilah to know you, because you are worse than her father. I don't agree with her. If you ever want to see Delilah talk to my brother or yours. They'll know how to get a hold of me. Delilah deserves to know you. What she doesn't deserve is to be thrown away. Yeah Mist told me all about that.
There is no way for you to get a hold of me. I've changed my e-mail, obviously my address and I no longer have your last name. I doubt you remember my maiden name. You can send your check for Delilah or anything else for her to my brother or once again yours. I'll received it eventually. Everything we were was a lie. There was no truth. I honestly believe that you never loved me. I hope you enjoy the little mementos I left in the house for you. Ghosts of our life together and of the girls.
I HOPE YOU SUFFER LIKE I DID!
-Jessicka
p.s.
don't forget to feed Wednesday and I gave my key to your brother so
that he could do it until you got home. Grace didn't want your gift
because you hurt her and you hurt me.
Matt reread the letter several times before putting it down. It was three in the afternoon. It was also his daughters birthday. He didn't really care though. She was never his daughter. She may be her father but at this point you might as well call him her sperm donor. He would let it be her decision in the future if she wanted to know him or not. He lay the letter on the desk and went down to the living room to feed the damned rabbit. He risked a glance at the mantel in the family room as he passed and saw a picture of Jessicka and the girls. One of the other girls must've taken it. Walking into the living room he saw that his and Jessicka's wedding picture was still on the wall. Shaking his head he busied himself with Wednesday and tried to ignore the fact that he fucked up and lost everything.
Meanwhile at Jeff's house in Cameron…
Kyrstina was trying to run without falling. Lucas was trying to climb his fathers leg as he got ready to feed Carmandy. Jessicka wasn't there. She had called and said that she couldn't make it. They still had three cakes though because Jeff had insisted and Vanessa had still continued to call him crazy but she loved him anyway, and she had ordered the third cake. Jeff looked around at all the chaos and it made him smile. Xavier was eight, Brooklyn was twelve and Carmandy was two. Only one of them was his but he still considered them family. The other two kids were turning one today. Vanessa was helping Misty and John prepare food. Jessica, Kevin, and Jeff had been left to tend to the one year olds and other three children. They didn't care. At the sound of a knock on his front door Jeff looked up in time to see Brooklyn run to the door.
"See who it is first B." He called after her. Brooklyn skidded to a halt and peered out the window. Jessicka heard a squeal from inside followed by a shout of 'it's Jessicka and the girls.' The door opened moments later and she was being dragged in by Misty and Vanessa. Grace carried her little sister in and Brooklyn helped her dad with the bags.
"Told ya she would show babe." Jeff told his wife. She hit him.
"It was a last minute decision." Jessicka said quickly.
"Well sis, we're glad you made it come say hello to your niece." Jessicka took Carmandy from Adam who then reached down and took Delilah from Grace. He gave his older niece a hug before she ran off to play with Brooklyn. He carried Delilah to the room that the little one year olds were in and Jessicka followed.
"He's not coming by the way." Gilbert Hardy told her as she passed him. He would never like her. Delilah was playing with Krystina and it made her smile. She took the bottle Adam handed her and fed her niece. She remained silent. It had taken her a lot to come down here. Somewhere deep inside she had hoped he would come, but was glad he hadn't. She didn't even notice Jessica and Kevin. She finished feeding Carmandy and put her in her carrier.
"hey!" Jessica jumped and came out of her daze.
"Oh my gawd look at you Jess!!" she jumped up and hugged her friend.
"I know I know I'm pregnant again." Jessica said grinning.
"How far?"
"five months"
"wait that means…"
"I was pregnant at the wedding. I was gonna tell everyone then but shit happened and I didn't. It seemed like a bad time."
"You could've told me…"
"I tried you changed your e-mail."
" I sent out a mass e-mail to everyone. Well not everyone…"
"I think most of us changed our e-mails." Kevin interrupted.
"Hey fang face." Jessicka said and actually hugged him.
"Hey now"
"Play nice sis we have to."
"Aww big brother you never play nice." And with that they went off to celebrate the birthdays of Lucas Copeland, Krystina Cena, and Delilah Hardy.
