Chapter Two – In Second Place

"Why didn't you tell me?!"

Cameron shot up again in another cold sweat and Amy and Shawn woke up at the same-time.

"The best thing to do for now is to wrap our arms around him and pray," Shawn said, this was the second time Cameron had woken up from a bad dream.

"Maybe Rebecca shouldn't have left so early," Amy said as the Anointed Couple wrapped their arms around the trembling Cameron.

Shawn kissed the side of Cameron's head, "Was it the same dream son?"

"Yeah," Cameron said clutching to his father's side while Amy stroked his head, she was upset herself.

"Where are you going?" Shawn whispered to his wife as Amy took her cell-phone and was about to quietly exit the room.

"I was gonna call Trish and ask her if she knows what's happening to Cameron," Amy replied.

Cameron's hand suddenly shot out and he grabbed Amy's arm and pulled her back to the bed, "Please don't go mom," he pleaded and Amy immediately dropped her cell and got back into bed and resumed hugging position.

The warmth of their Anointing made Cameron feel better as his head pounded with flickers of his dream that he didn't understand.

"All I got out of it was that LC was upset with me about something," Cameron explained but Shawn hushed him.

"Its alright don't try to analyze it Cameron, in the morning we'll talk to Trish and Randy and ask them to tell us what it means okay?"

"But Daddy I'm the Amazing one, I should know what the dream means," Cameron replied.

"That's true he should," Amy said and that concerned her very much and she gave Shawn a determined look, "I wanna know what's going on,"

Shawn realized that with both Rebecca and Amy equally desperate to get to the bottom of Cameron's re-occurring dream about LC he had better talk to the girl herself and see if he she had any idea what was going on with her future husband.

"No Dad, I don't want you to say anything to LC," Cameron said already knowing that's what his father intended to do.

"But she might know something Cam," Shawn said.

"Daddy please don't make me regret sleeping in your bed tonight," Cameron said.

"Alright I won't talk to LC," Shawn said.

"Or Uncle Hunter or Aunt Joanie," Cameron added and Shawn protested until Amy shot him down with a look of stern disapproval.

"Okay we'll just keep it between us," Shawn said and Cameron hugged him gratefully and Amy could see that Shawn was very worried about Cameron's dream. Shawn pulled his Bible from off his nightstand onto his lap and opened it up to the Book of Proverbs:

"Proverbs 3:24 says "When you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet." So lie down my son and rest," Shawn said softly and Amy leaned over and kissed Shawn. "Sweet dreams," Shawn said and he kissed Cameron and his Kiss of Life penetrated the anxiety in Cameron's mind and he fell asleep instantly. Shawn kissed Amy and she fell asleep in his arms, Shawn stayed up and watched his wife and child sleep and made sure that they slept soundly throughout the night. He was pretty sure Randy and Trish were expecting his call, maybe when they had their son they'd realize that his child's needs would always come before his own and that included a goodnight's sleep.

In the morning after a full 3 hours sleep Cameron convinced his Dad to go to bed and go into work later, of course Hunter didn't approve. The Cerebral Assassin believed that he was doing the lion's share of the work at DX Inc, the last thing he should have done was mouth off to Amy who wanted her husband to get back into bed. She had to wrestle the pants from Shawn's hands and then pin him to his bed so that he didn't leave with Hunter.

"Amy baby I appreciate your concern but I gotta go into work," Shawn said wrestling from underneath his wife but she caught him before he could get away from her by grabbing his ankle.

"Shawn I don't care if Hunter wants to bitch and moan all the way to Florida, you are not going into work until later now get back in this bed!" Amy said.

"But Amy Hunter's one more stupid move away from pissing off the locker room I have to be there to be the voice of reason," Shawn explained and Amy paused.

"You mean to tell me that Hunter is still tripping over Jeff Hardy for leaving for TNA after Wrestlemania?" Amy said and Shawn nodded.

"Ames where have you been that's all he talks about?" Shawn said, "I can't remember the last time he mentioned his and Joanie's wedding,"

"Well that's his problem Shawn, you didn't get any sleep last night you're in no condition to play referee anyway," Amy replied.

Shawn sighed, "I can't win its either go to work and have you be mad at me or stay home so you can have sex with me,"

Shawn's eyes suddenly lit up as Amy curled a lock of his hair around her finger suggestively; Hunter arrived at his bedroom door ready to leave but Shawn wasn't going anywhere he was locked in a passionate kiss with Big Red.

"Come on Shawn how long does it take to get dressed?" Hunter complained.

"Actually Hunter I'm gonna stay home," Shawn replied with a mouth full of Amy and the bedroom door swung open to reveal a very angrily Triple H on the other side of it.

"What do you mean you're staying home?!" Hunter yelled at the kissing couple.

"Hey keep your voice down the baby is still sleeping!" Amy yelled back.

"I'm not feeling too well, I barely slept at all last night," Shawn said as Amy caressed him lovingly much to Hunter's suspicion.

"I don't believe you, I think you wanna stay home and have sex with your wife that's what I think!" Hunter said.

"Yes that would be nice but I won't even be able to do that I'm exhausted," Shawn said and Amy snickered.

"Yeah right like I'm not gonna take full advantage of having you home all to myself," Amy said then she paused realizing that she shouldn't have said that, "Ooops did I say that out loud?"

"Yes you did, now Shawn get in the freaking car you can change at the airport," Hunter said grabbing Shawn by the arm but he found himself wrestling against the Righteous Indignation of his Anointed wife. Eventually Hunter had to let Shawn go lest he be badly burned and have to get surgery.

"Fine goof off work, just like Jeff Hardy always does. Its bad enough that he's mocking my authority in the locker room but to influence you Shawn, that boy has played his last trump card!" Hunter said and Shawn and Amy couldn't believe their ears.

"How the Hell is me wanting to sleep in late got anything to do with Jeff Hardy?!" Shawn said.

"It has everything to do with Jeff Hardy!" Hunter replied bitterly.

"You know what, I'm gonna talk to Jeff later and if I find out that you've abused him in anyway I'm gonna come down to Florida with Shawn and lay some Righteous Indignation on your crazy obsessed butt!" Amy warned Hunter and the Cerebral Assassin gulped.

"You better mellow out Big Red," Hunter warned Amy but Big Red just stuck her tongue out at the Grumpy Game who made his way downstairs where the ARK Angels were quietly waiting for him. The sight of Hunter made them want to stay home too.

"Where's Uncle Shawn?" LC asked.

"He's staying home and I don't want to talk about it," Hunter snapped and LC and Cheyenne exchanged glances with each other.

"Cameron go get your Dad I can't handle my Dad when he's like this," LC said but Cameron was reluctant to disturb his father after having stayed up all night so he could sleep soundly.

"It'll be okay we'll just hang with your mom," Cameron said.

"My Mom's not coming, Dad's pissed her off too," LC replied.

"Right, then we'll hang with the driver, I really don't wanna make my Dad go to work when he's so tired," Cameron said.

"Why is he so tired, was it because you were sleeping with him?" LC asked and Cameron didn't want to answer fortunately Hunter gave him a way out of an awkward situation.

"Let's go!" he barked at the children and they quickly jumped in the DX Machine, as soon as they got in Aurora started crying.

LC and Cheyenne comforted her but she was inconsolable, "LC pass her to me I'll calm her down," Hunter said reaching for Aurora.

"No way Daddy you're the reason she's crying!" LC said, "You've been acting like a total tool lately!"

"She's scared of you Uncle Hunter," Cheyenne added.

"She's not scared of me she's just being a grouch," Hunter said.

"Like father like daughter," LC quipped.

"Just give her here Lisa," Hunter said and LC reluctantly passed Aurora to her father, as soon as she did Aurora caused it to start raining on the inside of the DX Machine.

"What on Earth is going on?" the driver asked.

"Daddy give her back," LC said but Hunter refused.

"No she's not crying because of me she's crying because of Jeff Hardy," Hunter said and the ARK Angels rolled their eyes and sank into the leather seats fatigued with yet another rant on Jeff Hardy, a rant that lasted all the way to the airport. It rained all the way there; it also rained in the airport, on the airplane and at the arena when they finally got to Jacksonville.

Meanwhile back at the Sandbox Shawn and Amy were about to call Trish and Randy and find out what was going on in Cameron's dream. The sound of Chyna crying in the Rebecca Michelle's nursery got their attention and they went to see what was wrong.

"I've had it with all this bull-crap about Jeff and Steph, even Aurora is fed up with Hunter," Joanie said as Shawn and Amy comforted her and handed her a tissue to wipe her tears. Together they picked Joanie off the floor and escorted her to their room which had become a sanctuary over the last few months for the broken-hearted.

"We sympathize, really we do," Shawn said.

"I heard him yelling at you for wanting to sleep in, all week long all he could do was bitch and moan about how Steph and Jeff showed us up at the ARK Angels party. He's creating this tension between Steph, Jeff and us that just isn't there. Its only there because he wants it to be, its just like the Helmsley-McMahon feud all over again and I don't want any part of it," Chyna cried in frustration.

"Whoa let's not go overboard, that's not what this is Joanie," Shawn said.

"Yeah back during the Helmsley-McMahon era Hunter was a totally different person," Amy said.

"If you ask me nothing's changed since I came back into his life, he was obsessed with Stephanie then and he's obsessed with her now. What do I have to do to get this man to devote all his attention to LC and me? Its like we're in second place," Chyna said.

"You are NOT in second place Joanie you and LC and Aurora are the most important people in Hunter's life. Just calm down we'll talk to him don't let your imagination run away with you, remember the wedding is only a month away," Shawn said but Chyna's face fell at the mention of the wedding.

"I don't think there's gonna be a wedding," she said and she broke down in tears while Shawn and Amy tried to pick their jaws from off their bedroom floor.

"We're having one Hell of a morning aren't we?" Amy said to Shawn who nodded, as soon as he got to work he was gonna make sure the only thing on Hunter's mind was his wedding and he figured he'd need Amy's help to make sure that Jeff was no longer gonna cause problems for The Game.

"This is why I wanted you to come back to work with me," Shawn said as they comforted Joanie.

"Yeah, you're so busy looking after your best friend you don't have time to lead the locker room," Amy said.

"So will you step up and be my Second in Command while I take care of Hunter and Joanie?" Shawn asked.

"I thought I already was your Second in Command," Amy said with a smile and Shawn kissed her thankful that she was always at his side before Kissing Joanie back to life, the First Lady of DX sure needed it.

"Thank God you convinced him to stay home," Joanie said to Amy, "I don't know what I'd do without you guys,"

Shawn and Amy hugged Chyna grateful for their support, it was more love than she'd got from Hunter ever since Jeff and Steph announced their engagement and if she was going to finally take Hunter's last name that's something that was going to have to change after tonight.
