Ch. 10

McKenna was sitting backstage with CM Punk when she saw Jeff walking with Kelly Kelly. He could tell by the adoring looks that she was shooting in his direction that Kelly had the hots for Jeff and he was playing on that. McKenna wasn't sure why she was feeling so upset about it but she wasn't about to let Jeff know he was getting to her. Groaning silently to herself McKenna turned her attention to CM Punk so that she wouldn't catch Jeff's eye just as CM leaned in and kissed her smack on the lips. McKenna was shocked but was even more shocked when she felt someone grab him and yank him away from her.

"Who do you think you are?" Jeff asked as he glared at CM.

"What's your deal? It's not like you have any connections with her, well at least not anymore since she is probably going to be my girl from now on." CM said with a laugh.

McKenna didn't know what to say as she noticed Jeff getting angrier and angrier. Then out of nowhere he slammed CM to the ground and pounded on him. When he got up he turned towards her and grabbed her hand and practically dragged her down the hallway.

"So is that what your game is now? To get even with me by going out with him?" Jeff asked clearly upset.

McKenna wasn't sure what to say when Jeff pulled her towards him and kissed her on the lips, passionately. He was gripping her head and holding her to him when CM decided to get even and found them, slamming into both of them causing McKenna to go down and get trapped in between the two men who clearly weren't happy with each other at the moment.

"Knock it off." McKenna shouted as someone missed the other and hit her instead. "If you wanna kill each other at least let me get out of the way." She said when she felt CM being pulled off. She looked up and saw Matt holding CM back and Jillian holding her hand out for her.

"You okay?" Jillian asked noticing the bloody lip McKenna was now sporting.

"No I'm not." McKenna said unsure how to respond.

Jeff looked over and noticed the look on McKenna's face and the blood dripping from her lip and winced. He walked over and touched her shoulder, forcing her to fully face him.

"I don't know what it is about you that makes me crazy, but there is something there." Jeff said softly.

"This isn't healthy." McKenna said shaking her head. "Jeff you aren't my boyfriend, you haven't wanted anything to do with me romantically since you believed Annabelle."

"I know, and I also know that I am a complete and total moron." Jeff said getting slightly upset.

"I agree." McKenna said.

"It doesn't matter. McKenna is my girlfriend and she is going to be with me." CM said sneering at Jeff and shaking loose of Matt. CM reached out and grabbed McKenna by the arm and started to attempt to pull her towards the door.

"I don't think so." Jeff said simply. "She isn't a piece of property, maybe you should ask her what she wants. Maybe she doesn't want to be with either of us."

McKenna could tell how hard it was for Jeff to admit that there was a possibility that she wouldn't want anything to do with him either. She glanced over at CM and knew immediately that this whole thing was planned out with him. Someone had told CM to act this way and she had a feeling she knew what this was about.

"Is this some sort of plan? Are you supposed to be causing problems?" McKenna asked glaring at CM Punk.

CM studied McKenna and then must have decided that it would be better if he fessed up to what was going on. "Vince has a new assistant who asked for a favor. Since Vince isn't fond of you he decided it would probably worked to his benefit."

"Annabelle?" McKenna asked with a warning tone.

"Yeah, her name is Annabelle. How did you guess?" CM asked confused.

McKenna slowly turned towards Jeff and then slowly let a grin spread across her face. "Look both of us have been focused on revenge. We have wanted to get even with each other when maybe we should team up and get even with other people. Vince is getting on my last nerve and now that Annabelle is most likely back in the picture I say we get even."

"What do you have in mind?" Jeff asked with a smirk on his face.

"Well I am sure we can come up with something. But at the moment we need to go along with the whole CM Punk thing, especially with the match tonight. It's important that you pretend you are as angry as ever at me for my 'relationship' with him." McKenna said nodding slowly to herself.

Matt and Jeff were walking down the hallway of ECW later on. The plan had been hatched and it was very elaborate. Although the steps that it was going to take to get even with the other people were going to be painful. Jeff knew it was going to take a lot for him to pretend to hate McKenna now that he knew what the truth was when it came to her.

"Hey man, just pretend that you don't know anything." Matt whispered and then winced as he noticed that Vince was walking towards them with a woman who was smirking.

"Jeffery Hardy." The woman said with a slight giggle. "Long time no see."

"Annabelle?" Jeff asked pretending to be surprised although CM had given them a heads up.

"I see you remember me." Annabelle said with a flirtatious smile. "I heard McKenna is around and once again she has hurt you. Don't you ever learn?" She asked with a smile on her face.

"Can't help what your heart wants." Jeff said softly. He glanced behind him and noticed CM and McKenna walking up the hallway. He could tell by the look on her face that CM had told her that it was Annabelle they were talking to.

"Annabelle? Well look at you, still the same ugly piece of crap you were back home aren't you?" McKenna asked with a sneer. They had agreed that McKenna should treat Annabelle the same as always so that she wouldn't get suspicious.

"McKenna still the same, well you know what you are." Annabelle said with a dark look.

"Annabelle is the special guest referee for your match tonight McKenna." Vince said with a smirk. "Did I mention it was a no holds barred, anything goes match. I mean this is ECW, it wouldn't be right not letting weapons be allowed in the match."

McKenna could already tell that it was going to be a painful match for her. As much as she wanted to get even with people she wasn't sure she wanted to risk her health, however it was out of her hands at this point and she could only hope that in the end their revenge was worth the pain the plan was going to cause. Because it wasn't only physical pain that was going to be caused by the plan, McKenna knew that with how fragile her and Jeff were the plan was going to really test whether or not they were going to end up together in the end.
