Chapter 3
*A Few Months Later*
Matt and Jeff were standing at the entrance way to the Titan Tron getting ready to do RAW is War from Richmond, Va when Matt saw someone signaling him over. Looking over at Jeff and shrugging, Matt walked over to the side and asked what was going on. They too shrugged before handing him a phone without an explanation.
Yeah Matt, this is Carrie. You and Jeff need to get your skinny extreme asses on the next plane because I am taking Tabitha to the emergency room, you're having a baby. Carrie said before hanging up.
Jeff looked over towards his brother and saw him standing there with his mouth hanging open in shock and a glazed look in his eyes.
Matt bro, are you ok? He asked as he waved a hand back and forth in front of his face.
We gotta get out of here, Tabitha's having the baby. Matt said as he grabbed Jeff and started dragging him out.
Hey you guys you're ready to go on. A stagehand said to them as they were leaving.
Matt looked around, quickly looking for a replacement for the two. Spotting Kaientai, he grabbed them each by the back of the neck and placed them in the entranceway.
You guys are fighting for Jeff and I tonight, please don't get killed. He said as he and Jeff started walking away.
Kaientai looked at one another with huge eyes and shook their heads frantically muttering only one word.
The two tried to sneak away when Vince McMahon stepped in front of them.
Where do you two think you're going? Matt's wife is having a baby and you guys are the closest ones in uniform. Go on, get out there. He said while the others in the back laughed.
*************************
Carrie, please tell me he's going to be here soon. Tabitha said a bit breathless after the last contraction.
Tabs, you know that Matt wouldn't miss this for the world. You know how much he loves you and this baby, you are his pride a joy. Nothing short of his death would keep him away from this. Carrie said smiling as she wiped the sweat from Tabitha's brow.
*******************
Matt and Jeff burst through the hospital doors and ran to the front desk, impatiently waiting their turns to be waited on.
Can I help you sir? A kind old lady, who looked to be about 60 or so, asked as she smiled up at him.
Always being gentlemen, the two took the time to smile before asking their question.
Yeah you can, my wife is having a baby and I need to know what floor that's on. Matt said in a rush.
Smiling at the anxiousness in his voice, the lady at the desk checked a few records before looking up.
Your wife is in room 320 Mr. Hardy. She said while Matt looked at her a little funky.
How did you know who I am?
I may be old, but that doesn't mean that I'm not hip young man. I know exactly who you two are and may I say Matt, you are very handsome. She said smiling sweetly at him.
He smiled back and kissed her on the cheek before running to find an elevator with Jeff on his heels.
The two made it up to the fourth floor and found the room before knocking on the door and quietly going in.
*******************
Tabitha looked up from the bed as she heard the door quietly open. Her face lit up as she saw Matt peak his head in the door way before walking over and kissing her on the forehead.
How are you doing sweetheart? He asked as he took the seat that Carrie had vacated.
I've defiantly been better, but I'm glad you're here. She said as she grabbed his hand as a contraction hit her.
He helped her breath through it, seeing as how they had taken Lamaze class together, all the while running a hand through her hair and keeping her calm.
Doctor Thomas walked into the room and smiled at the couple before setting his clipboard at the foot of the bed.
Are you two ready to have this baby? He asked as he got prepped and put Matt, Jeff, and Carrie in scrubs.
Aww man, come on do I have to wear this over my hair? Jeff asked as the nurse put a cap on his head.
It's not like you're going to a beauty contest Jeff. Would you just do it? Tabitha said a bit testy.
Jeff raised an eyebrow as they all headed out the door.
***********
Come on baby, you're doing great. Just push a little bit more for me baby girl. Matt said as he tried to help Tabitha through the pushing part.
Looking at her, he wiped her face with a cool cloth before putting an arm around her back and holding her up while she pushed again.
Ok, Tabitha, I can see the head, one more push and you and Matt will be parents. Doctor Thomas said smiling.
Tabitha looked ahead with a look of concentration on her face and sucked it up as she pushed as hard as she could, screaming as the baby came out. Tears ran down her face as she heard the cries of her son. Looking up at Matt, she could see he was crying too.
Carrie and Jeff smiled as they looked on. The baby had a hair full of black, curly, hair just like Matt's and eyes as blue as the sea, just like Tabitha's.
Matt reached down and kissed Tabitha on the cheek.
He's beautiful Matt look at him. She said as she held his head and ran a finger over his cheek.
I know baby, he is just as beautiful as you are. Matt said as he kissed her and the baby on the forehead before laughing when he grabbed his finger.
Carrie and Jeff chose that moment to take a picture, causing the others to look up in shock before laughing with happiness. Jeff walked over to the two and asked to hold the baby.
Jeff was oohhing and awwing when a thought struck him.
Hey, he would look awesome with pink hair. Jeff said as he headed for the door.
A room full of people yelled at him as he turned around with a sheepish smile on his face.
Geez, I was just kidding. Sorry. He said holding a hand up to ward them all off.
