A/N: Hey guys! Thank you so much for all the love that this story has already received! Truly means a lot to have you guys reading and reviewing this story. I am really enjoying writing this story at the moment. It's nice to take a break from the corporate world of 'Live for the Moment' and write a sweet more relaxed fanfic. Of course whenever Jay is around, there's always some drama that follows. Hehe. Anyway, I have found my spark once again and to thank you for all the love that you give both of my stories, I thought I would post Chapter 2 a little earlier than planned. So without further ado, here is Chapter 2. I hope you enjoy and continue to share your thoughts in the reviews. As always happy reading! =)

Chapter Two

The ride to the destination was long, they had been driving for about two hours. Matt and Amy kept themselves entertained at the front singing along to the random tunes that Amy had pieced together for the road trip. Trish found comfort looking out of the window and watching as the scenery changed from city to country. She looked over her shoulder and took a moment to study the younger Hardy who was sleeping soundly. His head rested against the window, his headphones no longer around his ears, but resting around his neck. She noticed unique features on him that she hadn't noticed before. The intricate designs shaved into the sides of his head, the detailed roots that was tattooed on his right arm, wrapping itself around his chiselled muscles. He wasn't as muscular as Matt was, but he was still very well built. Trish had never come across anyone like Jeff before. Looks alone, he was different - unique was the perfect word to describe him , she had to admit, she was a little curious.

Another hour of driving and the group had finally arrived at their destination. The car pulled up to a large cabin hidden in the middle of the woods, surrounded by many large trees. You couldn't see another cabin anywhere nearby.

Trish felt herself being nudged before coming to the realisation that she had fallen asleep.

"Hey…uh…we're here." Came the soft and soothing voice of Jeff.

Stepping out of the car, Trish took in the scenery. It was amazingly beautiful, tall evergreen trees encircled them, the air was cool and fresh with that distinct woodland scent. It was the perfect place to escape, she couldn't have asked for anything more beautiful.

"Amazing isn't it?" Jeff said as he stood next to her, taking it all in just as she was.

"Have you been here before?" Trish asked quietly.

"No I haven't, but it reminds me of home."

Silence fell upon them as they simply stood and took in their surroundings. This was going to be their home for the next two weeks and they had no clue what was going to be in store for them. Trish turned her head slightly to catch a short glimpse at the blue haired being standing next to her, trying to be as inconspicuous as she could. In that same moment, Jeff had the same idea and their eyes met causing the two of them to smile slightly to themselves.

"Hey you guys going to help us or what?" Matt called out as he and Amy began to unload the bags from the car.

Trish and Jeff looked over their shoulders and watched as Matt struggled with one of the bags.

"This guy can't do anything without me." Jeff teased throwing a small smile Trish's way before turning and walking over to his brother to help unload the bags.

Trish smiled to herself before she took another look at her surroundings. She silently wished to herself that this would be the clean slate she needed. That this little escape would be the healing that her heart so desperately needed. She knew it wasn't going to be easy, particularly having her ex around, but she needed to try and move on and if it wasn't going to be now then it was going to be never.

The cabin was huge, much bigger than it looked on the outside. It was a double story wooden cabin fit for A-List celebrities. It reminded her of a ski-lodge she used to vacation at with her family back home in Canada. She instantly felt comfortable.

"Matt and I are taking this room!" Amy's voice could be heard from the top floor. Clearly she had found the best room in the cabin. Her quick footsteps could be heard coming down the stairs as Jeff and Matt brought the final bags inside, closing the door behind them.

"Matt, let's put our bags in our room before anyone else comes." Amy giggled with excitement before stopping and turning towards Jeff and Trish. "Uhh…what are you guys going to do about sleeping arrangements?" She questioned.

"I hadn't really thought of that." Trish replied as she glanced over at Jeff.

"What's the chances of me getting my own room?" Jeff asked, adjusting his bandana.

"Unlikely." Matt replied. "There's only five bedrooms and well there's myself and Amy, you and Trish, Randy and Stacy and Adam and Ja…" Matt wasn't able to finish his sentence as his attention turned to Trish.

"Matt it's fine. You can say his name. He's going to be here. There's not much we can do about it. I knew it was going to happen, so it's fine. Really. I'm fine." Trish reassured, knowing full well that she was lying to herself and everyone else. Jeff, who was clueless about Trish's history with Jason, had a confused expression across his face before he turned his attention back to Matt.

"Well I might not be the strongest in maths but I believe there is a spare room. If you and Amy bunk up, Randy and Stace room together and Adam and Jay share a room that leaves two rooms for Trish and I to have to ourselves…am I right?"

Matt thought for a moment, calculating in his head before coming to the realization that his brother was right. "Well…yeah, I guess it works out then."

"Great!" Jeff grinned as he grabbed his backpack and threw it over his shoulder. I shall go and find my room then. "Did you need a hand with your bags?" Jeff politely asked Trish, causing Trish to snap out of her thoughts.

"Um…no, thanks. I'm okay." Trish replied, forcing a small smile before watching as Jeff bounced up the stairs.

"Trish are you going to be okay rooming on your own?" Matt asked as Amy stood next to him equally concerned for the blonde.

"Guys, I've been on my own for the past two months. I'm sure I can handle two weeks in a room by myself inside a house full of people." Trish tried to laugh off.

Matt and Amy exchanged a glance at each other before looking back their blonde friend. Before they could continue to question her, they heard a car pull up and doors slam before voices could be heard.

The front door suddenly opened and in walked the remaining parties of the group.

Randy and Stacy were the first to walk in surprised to see Matt, Amy and Trish standing at the entrance.

"Hey! When did you guys get here?" Randy asked, greeting Matt and Amy before Trish caught his sight.

"Hey stranger! It's good to see you again. You're looking well." Randy complimented as he brought Trish into an embrace. "It's been a long time."

"Yeah it has. You're still just as charming as ever." Trish replied with a smile as she reciprocated his hug.

"Trish! I'm so glad you're here!" Stacy beamed, hugging Trish tightly. Trish was happy to see the leggy blonde. She had missed her and their girly chats they use to have on the regular.

Adam was the next to walk in dropping his bags to the floor by the door before adjusting his coat.

"Hey! You guys made it here before us!" Adam remarked, greeting Matt and Amy first before he spotted a familiar face, one he hadn't seen in months.

"Well if it isn't the princess herself. She finally greets us with her presence." Adam teased.

Seeing Adam again brought a wave of guilt rush through her body. They were the best of friends for the longest time and after everything that happened with Jason and her, it was just easier to avoid Adam all together so that she didn't have any chance of bumping into Jason or be reminded of him through his brother. She knew she was wrong to do that, but it was the right thing for her to do at the time. Besides, she didn't want to come between brothers and there was no way that she was going to make Adam to choose sides either.

"Hey Adam" Trish greeted in an uncertain tone. She didn't know whether Adam was still on good terms with her or if he hated her for avoiding him.

"Hey Adam? I don't see you for two months and all I get is a 'Hey Adam?' Come here you little turd! I should totally give you the cold shoulder for avoiding me like the plague, but I've missed you too much." Adam smiled pulling Trish into a bear like hug. Trish was like a little sister to him and when Jason broke her heart, all he wanted to do was help her pick up the pieces for his brother's stupid mistake. He never forgave Jason for what he did to Trish, but a part of him knew that Trish was better off with someone else. She was too good for Jason.

Trish couldn't help but smile as she hugged the ruggedly handsome blonde man. She had missed Adam dearly and to be in his embrace once again, she felt comfort. She felt like she was home again.

"There's still more bags in the trunk if any of you care to help." Came an annoyed voice, followed by a thud of a heavy bag on the ground. "Nice to see you all just standing around being helpless fools while I grab the rest of the bags."

"Nice to see you to Jay." Matt acknowledged rolling his eyes as Jason took a moment to look around the room at the group of people gathered by the entrance way. His blue eyes glancing at a familiar pair of hazel eyes he hadn't seen in a while.

Trish felt chills run down her spine as she stood in front of the man that had broken her heart, mind and soul. The man that ripped her heart completely out of her chest and stomped on it before throwing it in the trash like she was meaningless. The man that had shattered all her hopes, dreams and beliefs that true love actually existed in real life. The man that simply had broken her entire being.

•••••

"I absolutely love movie night. Just snuggling down and watching a flick with the man I love!" Trish beamed as she placed the bowl of popcorn down on the table before snuggling up to her boyfriend on the couch, making herself comfortable.

"I'm just happy that I don't have to sit through The Notebook again. That was complete and utter torture." Jason whined.

"Oh it wasn't that bad. It was beautiful. I get teary-eyed every time at the ending. I hope that will be us when we grow old Jay."

"What? Dead?" Jason poked fun before acting out his last dying breath.

"No!" She exclaimed as she slapped Jason playfully in the chest. "In love. I hope that we are just as much in love with each other when we are old and grey as we are right now in this very moment."

"Pfft" Jason scoffed. "That kind of love only exists in movies and fairy tales." He added before reaching over Trish and grabbing a handful of popcorn, not realizing Trish's beaming smile start to fade.

Jason's phone began to vibrate loudly on the glass top of the coffee table which caught Trish's attention. His phone had been vibrating constantly since he arrived home from the gym this afternoon. It continued to vibrate but it didn't seem to bother Jason as he completely ignored it.

"Aren't you going to get that?" Trish asked looking at him curiously.

Jason took a moment to look at the phone. It looked as though he contemplated picking it up but he then turned his attention to Trish.

"And ruin my amazing movie night with my hot and sexy girlfriend? Now why would I do that?" He laid a salty kiss on Trish's forehead before shovelling the rest of the popcorn into his mouth, dropping a few pieces on Trish.

Halfway through the movie, Jason had fallen into a deep sleep as Trish was immersed in the movie. She loved her romantic comedies. She was a hopeless romantic and always believed that true love would prevail against all odds. She was brought back to reality when she heard Jason's phone vibrate once again. Like most of the night, she tried to ignore it and continue to focus on the movie, but something was telling her that the vibrating alerts were just asking her to take a look. She glanced over at Jason who was fast asleep, his mouth wide open as he snored loudly. Exactly like his brother. She thought. In slow movements, she reached over and grabbed his phone, being sure to look over her shoulder in case any sudden movements caused him to stir and wake. Taking a deep breath she flipped over his phone and took a moment to study the notifications on the screen. Her hands began to shake, taking just about all of her energy to prevent herself from not throwing the phone at Jason's face. Message notification after message notification from…Candice.

"That skanky little…" Trish whispered through gritted teeth. She looked over her shoulder once again at the man who she once saw as a stunningly handsome, loving and devoted boyfriend, but now all she could see was a slimy, dirty, lying, cheating dirtbag. Before she was going to unleash her anger on him, she had to make sure that the gut feeling in her stomach that she had had for a while was true. She unlocked his phone for this first time since they started dating. She had seen his pin code early on in their relationship but she never felt the need to look through his phone, until now. Gaining access into his phone, she paused and took a deep breath, unsure as to whether she wanted to see the contents of the messages or not.

As she scrolled through the messages her heartbeat started to accelerate, it was like venom had filled her entire body and she was becoming paralysed. Her eyes began to fill with tears as she read through message after message of inappropriate sexual messages, secret meeting arrangements and explicit photographs. All those times that she thought he was studying in the library or at the gym, he was having secret sexual rendezvous with Candice, a woman who hated Trish simply out of pure jealousy. Trish happened to be the most popular girl in their year (mostly because she was a sweetheart to everyone and not a bitch like many other girls). However unfortunately it seemed that Jason took her kindness for ignorance and was purely using her as a trophy girlfriend and nothing more. Trish couldn't handle reading any more messages as she got up from off of the couch and threw Jason's cell at him, hitting his chest hard and causing his body to jump as he woke from his sleep.

"What's going on? Trish? What the hell was that for?" A confused Jason stuttered as he picked up his cell from his chest and slowly sat himself up.

Trish began to pace back and forth as she shook her head, trying her hardest not to completely breakdown as she tried to fight off her tears.

"How could you Jay?" She said glaring at Jason, heartbreak written all over her face.

"What the hell are you talking about?" Jason asked, still in a state of complete confusion.

"You know for about a month now I had my suspicions about you. I had my doubts, I had the little voice inside my head telling me that something was wrong and yet, I stupidly continued to give you the benefit of the doubt. I kept telling myself that you loved me, you truly loved me like you said you did." She was losing her battle against her tears as they started to slowly drop one after the other down her cheeks. "Here I was, a loyal devoted girlfriend, talking up how wonderful my boyfriend is and how lucky I am to have met such a wonderful person so early in my life and yet here you were fucking Candice behind my back every opportunity you could." She snapped, a bitter taste left in her mouth after mentioning her name.

Her last line caused Jason to immediately stand as he took a moment to look at his cell phone.

"You went through my messages?"

"Yes! I went through your messages Jay! You were constantly getting messages since you got here and were trying your hardest to ignore them. Jason, you're on your phone 24/7 – you don't think I would find it a bit weird that somehow you are able to tear yourself away from your phone for more than two minutes all of a sudden? You left me no choice!

"You went through my personal messages!" Jason yelled. His anger was just his defense mechanism whilst he had to think how he was going to get out of this one. But the more he stared at the heartbroken face of the woman in front of him, it was dawning on him that his jig was up.

•••••

She looked at him the same way she looked at him the night she found out about his infidelity. Her face causing flashbacks to race through his mind. He wasn't prepared to see her, not since she had avoided him for the last couple of months. It caught him off guard and he wasn't quite sure what to do. She was in the same position, she stood paralysis as she came face to face with the man that tore her whole world inside out and upside down and destroyed everything she believed about true love. Everyone else in the room could feel the tension between the two as they glance back and forth from Jason to Trish.

"Well…this was unexpected." Jason finally said, breaking the silence that had filled the room as he continued to stare at the girl he once called his.
