Chapter 10

Edge frantically threw his ring gear into his duffle bag. Lita sat on the couch watching him intently. His eyes shot up to face her. "Why are you getting ready?!" he yelled.

She raised an eyebrow and shot him a cavalier look. "Why are you packing like someone's going to come through the door at any moment?"

Edge's eyes shot up to face the red-head. "I think we went too far. I really think we made the wrong choice. Hazel has a lot of allies and we just painted huge bulls eyes on ourselves." He snapped.

Lita rolled her eyes. "So what? I doubt that little bitch will be back for a while…."

Edge looked at her. "I felt her body feel like it cracked with each spear… then you bring in a chair… Taker or Kane could be here any minute." He said as his eyes shot towards the door. "And now, Jeff's back…."

"Oh yeah but he's fired remember?" Lita laughed.

"Still… We have to watch out for a number of people now. Jericho, the Hardyz, Hazel's brothers… not to mention Shannon Moore, Shane Helms, and probably others in the locker room…." Edge stated as he realized the extent of his actions.

Lita smirked. "Sounds like that's your problem… not mine."

Edge narrowed his eyes to her. "Trish Stratus and Jazz…. Remember? Even so, Jeff gave you the Twist of Fate. You're not safe. We're in this together…."

Lita's eyes widened at the reminder of Trish and Jazz.

Jeff felt like he'd been sitting in the hospital waiting room for hours. In actuality, it'd only been about half an hour since Hazel was brought in. His mind raced about a million different things as he sat alone in the uncomfortable chair. He silently prayed for Hazel. He'd never seen her look so bad and he'd seen her take some nasty falls. He didn't even think Hazel knew he was at the show; he hadn't even talked to her and his mind raced to that dark place he tried not to think about. 'What if I never get to tell her I love her?' he asked himself. He knew he wouldn't be able to live with himself if he couldn't apologize to her. Once he knew what the situation was with Hazel, he'd begin planning his attack on Edge. Jeff had gone easy on him on the past, but now it was beyond turning the other cheek. One spear could be chocked up to being an accident… but to spear her once, pulled her to her feet by her hair, spear her again when she couldn't even stand on her own, then to attack her with chairs. That was unforgivable. Lita, the woman he'd loved as a big sister and Hazel's best friend, had completely destroyed any chance of remorse from Jeff. She was just as guilty. Jeff heard a commotion coming from the hallway and he looked at the door. WWE superstars filled the waiting area. Jeff let a small smile cross his lips as he was surrounded by people who cared about Hazel.

"Any word yet, Jeff?" Matt asked as he sat next to his brother.

Jeff shrugged. "Nothing…"

"Oh, I hope she's ok!" Trish exclaimed. "She never deserved anything like this!"

"Tell me about it…" Rey Mysterio interjected. "Hazel never did anything to anyone!"

"I mean, if it happened to me, it'd make more sense. I'm a bitch." Trish said trying to break the tensions in the room. Jeff smiled at Trish as she laughed nervously. "Sorry, I just hate hospitals and I'm having some anxiety."

Jeff saw Hazel's brothers enter the waiting room. They both gave him a nod as they sat by the door. Jericho and Christian raced into the room a few minutes later. Everyone sat quietly wishing for some news. Jeff realized that while he was away, Hazel had transformed herself from the loner she used to be, and now she was a girl who could bring half of the roster to the hospital just to make sure she was ok. A small smile crossed his face. Jericho sat across from Jeff and stared at him.

"Did Hazel even know you were here?" he asked.

Jeff shook his head.

"Well it's good to have you back…" Jericho stated. "But the big question is what are we going to do about Edge and Lita?"

"I'll go after Lita…" Trish offered.

"I think we need to find out about Hazel, and then we can plot." Matt stated noticing the increased tension in the room. "We all have reasons to go after them…"

"She's our sister. It should be one of us." Taker injected.

"But Jeff loves her… and it's because of Edge that they aren't together." Trish said softly.

"No," Kane began. "It's his fault they aren't together. She told you and you didn't believe her!"

Matt placed his hand in the air. "Guys, this isn't the time or the place!"

"Why do you have to remind me and make me feel worse?!" Jeff screamed.

"Guys!" Shannon called trying to aid Matt in regaining order.

"You broke my sister's heart!" Kane yelled.

"Guys! Hey! Stop!" Matt called.

Taker looked at Jeff. "I know you have a strong fight in you but I don't know if Vince will let you handle this. Especially since you're fired and you were in the ring. He might be an ass about it… I have no problem letting you handle this, if Vince lets you. I know what happened with you and Hazel and I can't blame either of you. Just was unfortunate that it happened."

Jeff looked at Taker, who smiled at him, and he felt a weight lifted from his shoulders, if Taker could forgive him for his stupidity that was half the battle. Jeff's attention was shifted quickly to the doorway as he saw a doctor come into the waiting area. He nervously walked over towards the group of Hazel's friends and family. He glanced at his chart then to the group. Everyone stood there anxious for an update. "Are you Hazel Harper's family?" he asked.

"Yes," Matt said as they stood staring at the doctor.

"We've admitted her for observations. She has some bruising and swelling. We've given her medicine for pain and to help her sleep. We'll be running tests and hopefully she'll be discharged tomorrow afternoon. "

A sigh of relief fell on everyone. 'She's ok…' Jeff thought in his head.

"Can we see her?" Shannon asked.

The doctor glanced at the group and replied, "Well, she needs her rest… "

Taker glanced at Jeff, who looked relieved that she was ok. "Can her fiancé be with her?"

Jeff's head shot up as Taker began pushing him towards the doctor. Jeff understood what Taker was trying to do. First of all, he wanted the two former lovers to reconnect, and secondly, the hospital probably had a policy about visitors. Fiance was as close to husband as you could get. The doctor nodded his head and led Jeff towards the room where Hazel was. Matt looked at Taker oddly.

"I know they love each other and they need to get over this pride thing. I'll talk to Vince about getting Jeff back on the roster." Taker shrugged staring at Matt. "My sister taught me a few things about doing the right thing…"

"We might be family sooner than you think…."
