Accidents happen...
A few days had passed since my drunken mess. I still felt confused and a little upset, but i was determined to make things right. Jeff had a match tonight against the miracle, but i was given the night off. My plan was to watch the match and meet up with him for a drink after. There i would attempt to talk him round to giving things with Beth another try. But it didn't exactly go to plan. I was sat on the edge of my seat, watching Jeff's match. My eyes were firmly glued to the tv watching him fly through the air, until he began climbing up the main entrance. My eyes went wide as i realised how high he was and just what his plans were. I couldn't watch! My hands come up to my face as i shielded away from what was about to happen. And then i heard it. The sound of Jeff's body hitting the cold, hard floor of the arena as the miracle moves out the way.
The fans all gasp at the same time. Slowly my fingers part, revealing the image of Jeff's lifeless body, as he gets pinned. As the bell rings, paramedics run to the scene followed by Matt and Reby. I couldn't believe my eyes! How could he be so stupid? Jeff was now barely visable through the wall of paramedics. I could just about make out Matt holding his brothers hand. My heart sank as i watched it all. My first reaction was to find out if he was alright, but i knew i should get in touch with Beth. She needs to be the one who comforts him, not me. I took to Twitter and sent her a direct message. It didn't take her long to reply. She genuinely seemed saddened by the news and promised me she would be there by his side.
I had sat around my home, nervously awaiting any news on his condition. Luckily Jodie had seen it all happen and made her way to mine. Her hand fell on my shoulder as i stared blankly into space "Lex, call him. You need to find out what has happened, you're only torturing yourself sitting here not knowing" i couldn't bring myself to react. I needed to let it play out, i needed Jeff to have Beth bring him through this. A loud sigh left my mouth as i turned to face Jodie "i can't Jo. Beth needs to be the one to comfort him, not me. A lot has happened between me and Jeff, but i need to put it right." without hesitation, she pulls me in for a hug. I can feel the tears threatening to fall from my eyes. All i wanted was to know if he was alright.
Several hours had passed and i had been cuddled up to Jodie for most of it. We were watching a movie, when my phone rang. I sat up to check the caller ID, it was Matt. My eyes widen as i answer "is he alright?" Matt's voice sounded low and tired "he's damaged his neck and collar bone. He'll make a full recovery, but he will be out of action for a year minimum. The doctors say it could take up to two years for him to be fully healed." my heart sank hearing his words. I just wanted to hold Jeff and tell him everything would be alright, but i knew i couldn't "did Beth make it?" there was a slight pause before he replied "yeah she did. Said she was notified by you, Lex." i took in a deep breath and let out a sigh "she needs to be there for him Matt. You and me both know it's for the best" there was another awkward silence "but, he asked for you. The first thing he said when we were getting him out of the arena was, where's Lexi" my heart sank, but i managed to hold it together "i'll see him when he returns. Wish him well from me please."
It had been a week since Jeff's accident. I had been in touch with Beth every day making sure they were both ok. It was nice to have started a friendship with her. Maybe now she will trust me finally. Jeff had been written out of the TNA script for a year and a half, but i was going to keep his name alive. Dixie wanted me to keep promoting team xtreme. I was due to work with Matt and Reby a fair bit while Jeff was inactive. My relationship with the Hardy's had to be maintained so Jeff could jump back where he left off. Tonight me and Reby had a match against Rosemary and Maria. I had just finished getting myself ready. Wearing my holed arm bands, black hot pants, pink and black zebra crop top and my face was painted like Jeff's. I was stretching in the locker room when the door flies open "you're up Lex" it was Dixie making sure i was ready. I gave her a warm smile and jumped "i'm ready" once i reached the entrance, Reby was stood waiting. Matt was stood next to her wishing her luck.
My theme started to play and the fans began to scream. The roof to the arena was officially blown off by their enthusiasm. I made my way to the entrance, throwing the Hardy guns, causing the fans to scream more. As i made myself to the ring, i slapped fans hands along the ramp. They made everything better. Hearing the fans scream and call your name is enough to boost anyones confidence. When everyone was in the ring, we all stood there staring at each other until the bell rings. It was all very one sided. Me and Reby owned the whole ring, and it felt great! Once Reby got the pin, the crowd began to go wild once more as the ref held up our hands. We watched and laughed as Rosemary and Maria limped up the ramp. Adrenaline was pumping through my body as i jumped to the turnbuckle, throwing the Hardy guns once again. It always felt so good to win a match!
