Whilst Shannon slept, over the other side of America it was very different Jeff and Matt were wide awake and partying like usual. Matt sat with the boys at the bar moaning about his younger brother as Jeff consequtivly flirted with every person he could find, drunk as anything the young Hardy at one point was even trying his luck on a door. Matt shakes his head drinking a beer whilst talking to the others.

'Man what the fuck is it with Jeff, he used to be so sweet now all he is, is drunk or high all day long?'

'When you find out come tell me, I dunno what goes through his head anymore, this all started like a month after we came, he was fine till then.'

'I remember him like that, sweet as anything, he was always talking bout some chick was that his problem?'

'Chick?'

'Yeah, Shan summit.'

Matt laughs at this while Jeff continues flirting and kissing all the girls on the other side of the club. After looking at his younger brother he then looks back at the group of guys.

'You lot are idiots, Shan ain't no chick, he's Jeff's best friend.'

'Oh well the dude has a chick name.'

They all laugh including Matt, as Jeff caught what they said and walked...well kinda over to the guys.

'Shut it you fags, Shan is cool you...you fucking leave him alri.'

'Hey chill Jeff they were mucking.'

'Shut it Caveman and shut it bout Shan he he he doesn't need to be fucking talked about.'

'Woah chill we were having a laugh..'

'Hmpt.'

Jeff storms out of the club and goes back to the hotel leaving his brother and the boys in confusment, Jeff had slumped onto his bed now pissed off...

'All my fault...'

Then passes out to drink. Over the other side of America Shannon wakes up hungry like normal, but looks around and see's he has nobody to raid a fridge with and turns onto his stomach screaming something muffled by the pillow before going back to sleep. Back where the Hardy's were Matt had finally arrived back at the hotel to find a now wide awake Jeff lying on his back, as he lays in the bed next to Jeff's he watches before speaking.

'They were jus talking bout the past man, chill.'

'Yeah well they shouldn't.'

'Why won't you tell me what happened?'

'No I don't wanna talk about it.'

Jeff turns his back to his brother and closes his eyes, Matt however has other ideas and climbs in the bed next to his baby brother pulling him in and cuddling him.

'Come on Jeff, you were best friends then all of a sudden neither you talk and he leaves NC?'

'I said I don't wanna...'

'I know but I do an you need to tell me.'

'Matt just leave it.'

'Jeff.'

'No!'

Getting up off the bed Jeff huffs before grabbing his black jecket and walking out of the door, down the stairs and out the hotel. Walking around for what must have been fifteen or so minutes Jeff reaches a bench, sitting down on it he starts mubbling to himself.

'Shanny I sorry, if I...This is all my fault damnit.'

Flinging his head into his hands Jeff screams at himself, he knew it was all his fault, the reason Shannon hated them, what happened, why Shannon left, why Jeff was so flirtatious, why he himself did the drugs and drunk the days away. All because of one stupid damn night...
