Reason 3
Chapter 9: Past, Present, and Future
Armageddon was long gone and now everyone was back to their normal life's in the WWE. Jeff Hardy's title shot was gone and that proved to be true when on the following Raw Triple H was rewarded with the opportunity for the WWE Championship.
Yea that sucked.
Now normally Jeff Hardy would just be in a bad mood and be thinking about that.... but not today. Jeff was thinking the complete opposite of the WWE Championship, he was thinking about a certain blonde Canadian.... Trish Stratus.
Ever since she's returned, he just couldn't help himself, all of his thoughts lately were on his ex-girlfriend. Yea, that wasn't good.
And today his Trish thoughts were on their past together. After all they did have a 5 year relationship together.
Jeff sighed and looked around the hotel room. He was alone again, and of course his girlfriend Candice was out with her friends. That's what she did all the time now. But whatever. It just left him time to think about things...
"Oh my god, about time!" Jeff Hardy yelled getting off the arena floor to greet his girlfriend.
"Well hello to you to Jeffy." Trish giggled leaning in to kiss Jeff. "I wasn't that long-"
"That long!" Jeff cut her off. "Trish even the janitors left!"
"Well you could of waited with Matt-"
"Trish, he left with Amy 2 hours ago!" Jeff rolled his eyes.
"Oops....my bad." Trish giggled but stopped seeing Jeff's bad mood. "Jeff, I'm sorry I honestly didn't think I was that long...do you hate me?" Trish asked while giving him a sad face, the puppy dog eyes.
"Don't look at me like that, you know I hate it when you do your puppy dog eyes!" Jeff sighed and eventually gave in. "No...I don't hate you."
"Yay! The puppy dog eyes always work!" Trish giggled while clapping her hands.
"Yea yea. I guess I'll have to keep waiting for you every time after every show." Jeff said making his voice over dramatic. "I guess that's the price I have to pay for loving you..."
Trish stopped dead in her tracks. Jeff noticed this and was confused. "What?"
Trish had a huge smirk on her face. "Did you not hear what you just said?"
"I.... oh no! No I did not say that-"
"Yes you did! You love me!" Trish giggled.
"No..." Jeff replied slowly.
"Jeff, admit it you love me." Trish smiled.
"Maybe..."
Trish giggled. "Well Jeff Hardy I 'maybe' love you too."
Jeff laughed and they kissed after finally saying they love each other for the first time.
X-O-X-O
While Jeff was thinking about the past....Trish was living in the present.
Trish always loved going to meet her fans at autograph signings but today she was totally hating it. Cause who else would be at this autograph signing with her?
Ashley, of course.
Trish sighed and got out of her rental car, and entered the Best Buy that would be holding the event.
"Just two hours and then I can leave." Trish said to herself. Entering the room where she would be spending the next 2 hours, she was glad to realize Ashley hadn't arrived yet.
But that was short lived cause in walked the Dirty Diva, two minutes later. Taking her place next to Trish at the table, both girls stared at the clock in silence waiting for the fans to be let in.
"I'm sorry."
Making sure she wasn't hearing things Trish leaned forward.
"Um...excuse me?" Trish asked.
"Trish don't make me say it again." Ashley said softly. "I'm sorry."
"Why are you sorry?" Trish asked.
"I shouldn't of yelled at you like that. I was just frustrated with everything and I just snapped."
"Ashley it's my fault. I'm the crappy friend who doesn't tell her best friends anything." Trish argued.
"Yea, but It's still my fault. I'm just sorry for what I said to you. Do you except my apology?" Ashley asked.
Trish nodded. "Yes. And do you forgive me for just abandoning you?" Trish asked.
Ashley sighed. "It's kind of hard to forgive you for that. I wish I could, I really do but it's just going to take some time."
Trish nodded. "Can we still be friends?"
"I'll think about it." Ashley replied.
And with that said the signing began and in walked a ton of fans just waiting to meet the divas.
X-O-X-O
"And you flashback to when we said forever and always...." Jeff sang along with the Taylor Swift music that was blasting from the radio. It was odd he was listening to that kind of music but he liked the song. The lyrics spoke to him, it's as if he wrote them himself. "Cause I was there when you said forever and always.....you didn't mean it baby!"
The song soon ended so the flashback started....
"Jeffy....wakey wakey!"
Opening his eyes slowly Jeff was rather surprised to see his girlfriend sitting on top of him.
"Trish? What time is it?" Jeff said in between yawns.
"Late." Trish giggled. "Is it ok if I sleep here with you tonight?"
"Of course, but what's wrong with your room?" Jeff asked.
"Matt showed up and like usual Amy and Matt are yelling at each other." Trish replied with a roll of the eyes.
"It's still that bad?" Jeff sighed. "I don't know if they will ever get past this."
"I know." Trish said while getting under the covers to lie next to Jeff. "Can I ask you a question?"
"You can ask me anything." Jeff replied.
"Right....do you think we'll ever end up like them, Amy and Matt I mean. You know....have problems and eventually brake up?"
Jeff took a few moments before answering the question.
"Trish, I honestly don't know what's going to happen in the future, but if something does happen then I'll fight like hell to save us. Cause I know that I'm going to spend forever with you..."
Trish smiled. "Forever and always."
Jeff nodded" Forever and always."
"I love you Jeff."
"I love you too Trish."
Holding his girlfriend closer to him, Jeff closed his eyes and the couple soon fell asleep.
Forever and always....
X-O-X-O
"Here you go!" Trish said sweetly handing the teenage girl her autograph.
"Thank you and I just wanted to tell you that you and Randy make a cute couple." The girl smiled and left. Trish rolled her eyes. Out of all the fans that was probably the 10th fan to tell her that.
Two hours had passed and there was just a few fans left, Trish was rather grateful for that. Trish and Ashely only spoke to each other if a fan asked both of them a question together. That was it.
And now with the final fan gone Trish got up and gathered her stuff. Saying goodbye to the employee's at the Best Buy, Trish stopped and waited for Ashley to get off her phone.
"But Matt the signing just ended, I don't have a car can you please pick me up?" Ashley asked on the phone. "Alright fine, no I understand. I love you.....Bye."
Now Trish could of done two things. 1) laugh at Ashley and drive away in her car, or 2) been the nice person that she is and offer her a ride.
"Ashley do you need a ride?"
Yea, she chose plan 2.
Ashley sighed and smiled weakly. "Yea..."
"Come on, let's go." Trish replied, and the two divas left together.
Five minutes into the ride, no words were said. The two divas sat in silence and listened to the radio.
"Can I ask you a question?" Ashley asked breaking the silence.
Turning down the music Trish replied, "Go ahead."
"How do you know Jeff and you will be together again?" Ashley asked. "Your so confident that it will eventually happen but yet he has a girlfriend. I just don't understand how you can be so confident."
Trish twisted her lips in thought. "I'm not sure, I guess I'm just a believer. I believe in the most impossible things. And I know eventually everything will be ok. I know I could be wrong. I know that Jeff and I might happen again but still there's a huge chance that we might not." Trish smiled." I don't know but I know one thing.....we said forever and always."
Not exactly knowing what she meant Ashley just nodded and changed the subject.
"Since our fight, um I haven't really seen Torrie and Maria....how are they?" Ashley asked with a small smile.
"Well Maria.....she's the same Maria. Very ditsy but you gotta love her. And Torrie....I'm lucky if I see her cause she's with John basically 24/7." Trish giggled.
Ashley giggled too. "Those two really do love each other."
"Yea." Trish agreed. "They give me hope."
Ashley nodded. "Me too."
Well for now it looked like Trish and Ashley's relationship was a little better but of course they weren't exactly going to best friends anytime soon....
X-O-X-O
"Matt, open up!" Jeff yelled while pounding on Matt's door repeatedly. "Matt!"
"Whoa, calm down Jeff. Sorry, but I'm getting ready for my date with Ash..." Matt said after he opened the door, seeing Jeff's upset expression he knew something was wrong. "Jeff, what's wrong?"
"It's.... It's over." Jeff whispered entering the hotel room.
"What! What are you talking about? What's over?" Matt asked confused.
"Trish.... it's over.... she broke up with me." Jeff whispered.
"What, are you serious!" Matt exclaimed. "That's impossible, your guys relationship is fine. Wait what did she say?"
"She told me she loved me and she cares about me, but we can't be together. Our relationship.... is over." Jeff said still in shock over the event that just happened.
"I'm so confused... But you were going to pro-"
"I know! She didn't even let me do it. I had no time." Jeff sighed and dug through his jean pockets to take out a small box. "She didn't even see it..."
"Ok well, I'm going to call Ashley and cancel our date. You need me more then she does right now. Jeff it's going to be ok."
"Matt, I really don't think it will be." Jeff whispered while staring at the small box he had in his hands.
Jeff rolled his eyes at that memory. It wasn't one of his favorites. Rethinking about that he just had to get up and go to his suitcase. He knew exactly what he was looking for - something he bought a few years ago. He bought it for Trish and was going to give it to her that night but before he could Trish broke up with him. With no reason...
Unzipping his suitcase Jeff had a small smile when he found the small black box. Picking it up and sitting on the floor he opened it to reveal...
The diamond ring..... An engagement ring.
Jeff sighed. "Will you marry me?' 'Oh my god! Yes I will, Jeff!" He laughed after trying to do his best girl voice.
Jeff was so busy looking at the ring... he didn't even notice the door open...
"Oh....wow!"
Jeff was so surprised hearing a voice enter the room he forgot he was holding the ring.
"Yes..." Candice replied with her hands on her heart.
"What?" Jeff asked confused.
"YES!" Candice screamed, jumping towards Jeff. "Yes Jeff...I'll marry you!"
Jeff slowly looked at the ring in his hands and then towards Candice.
Uh oh...
DON'T HATE ME!
Please review :D
