See what driving yourself
through a table causes you? A date with the Trish herself. Man, I wish I never
did that senton. And I wish I never 'saved' Trish from Big Show. I also wish
that I never said yes to her about our date. Now I have Matt and Amy up my back
about it. What friends they are. I'm in the middle of a crisis and their busy
making fun of me. And it just so happens that Scooby doo is cool! What's wrong
with that? Anyways, when is this damn date huh?
"Jeff, you okay? You seem dreamy
today." Said Matt across the table. "What's wrong?
Jeff shook his head and spoke,
"Nothing, just thinking about tonight."
"Your date?"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah you don't have to
rub it in.," said Jeff bitterly. He rested his elbows on the kitchen table and
let his hands rest on his fists. "How did I get myself into this."
"I think I can answer that one for
you."
"I know how, I was talking to
myself, not you."
"Geeze, I was only trying to help."
"Well apparently your not." A moment of silence filled the room, until
Matt broke it. "I know why you're miserable. You like Trish so much, that you
don't want to make an ass of yourself on your date. That's why your bicthen
today. Right?" Jeff looked up at his brother.
"Me. Me like Trish? Are you out of
your mind?" Jeff gave a little laugh, trying to sound convincing, but that
did'nt work.
"No, but I think you are. You like
her do you? All those times you denied it. All lies. You like her." Jeff
couldn't believe what he was hearing.
"Okay! You caught me. But if word gets
out, I will sure murder you. Got it?" admitted Jeff. Matt chuckled. "I can't
believe it. You have a thing for Trish. Wait till Aims here about this."
Jeff stood up from his seat. "You
can't tell her! This is only between you and me! We made a deal." Matt got up
and leaned over the table to his bro. "Deal? We never shook hands did we?" Jeff
moaned in frustration. "But, Matt, you can't!" Matt was ready to reach for the
phone, but Jeff grabbed his hand.
"Matt, don't." Matt rolled his eyes.
"Fine. I won't. But you have to do me a favor."
"Anything."
"Give me all the dibs on your date
tonight."
"B-b-but…"
"No buts Pal." Said Matt slapping
Jeff's back hard, not even acknowledging his brother's injury.
"But that's personal, right?"
uttered Jeff finally.
"I think I hear Amy's phone
ringing…" started Matt in a singsong voice, grabbing the phone. Jeff snatched
the phone away. "Okay! I'll do it." Matt grinned. "Good. Now you should start
getting ready. Don't let that back kill ya."
"I won't. You made it worsen." Said
Jeff underneath his breath, as he felt that slap on his back take effect.
"Amy, I don't know what to do. I
mean I never gone out in a very long time. I'm totally scared." Said Trish. Amy
grinned. "Don't worry. Jeff is a nice guy."
"I know that."
"Well why are you so worried then?"
"Well…."
"If you want tips. Here's a little
tip I want to share with ya. He's very sensitive about his feelings and what
not. Don't break his heart. And make sure you watch his back. He can get a
little grumpy at times if you touch it."
"I know that, but I sort of like
him." Amy raised her eyebrows.
"Okay I really like him." Amy nodded
at that approvingly.
"I give up! I'm uncontrollably in
love with him. If it wasn't for that table bump, I wouldn't be here, worrying
about a date!" Trish let her hand brush back her hair and she laid flat on
Amy's bed. "I can't believe I'm talking like this."
God, and I thought it was only a
crush. Man! Don't tell me, I have majorly real feelings for Jeff. Please don't
tell me.
Trish squeezed her eyes shut and
tried to find where she was at, at the moment.
I'm here at Amy's house, on her bed,
and screaming my love for Jeff Hardy. Okay, this is not a dream. Why isn't it a
dream?! I'm going insane!
"Trish." She heard Amy's voice
faintly.
"Yes."
"Trish! Open your eyes!" said Amy a
little louder, breaking into Trish's thoughts.
"What?"
Amy let out a small smirk and
crossed her arms and said, "My O My. If it isn't Miss Stratus here, spilling
your heart out to Mr. Xtreme himself. Don't tell me I'm dreaming. This is
totally insane."
"You've read my mind." Said Trish to
herself. "More like a Nightmare." She sat up on her elbows. "Any advice?"
"Good luck. Does that help?"
"Sure, but Aims." She began. "Swear
not to tell?" Amy lowered her eyes for a moment and a thoughtful expression
appeared on her face.
"Well?"
"Maybe…. But I was willing to tell
Matt the wonderful news…."
"No way!" Cut off Trish. "Promise
not to tell!"
"What do I get out of this?"
"What do you want?"
"The scoop. That's all."
"You mean the date?"
"Yeah…"
"B-b-but that's personal right?"
Trish gave her Amy a questionable look. Amy reached for her cell. "I hear
Matt's phone ringing…" She started.
"Alright. Fine."
"Good."
"Is he okay?" asked Rob in a concerned
tone. "I mean was it that bad?"
"No, but he's not okay. He's going
on a date." Said Matt. "Anyway, why you care?" It was a long pause and then Rob
spoke up. "Well, it scared me too ya know. I mean, I've got to know Jeff a bit
and well he seems pretty cool and watching his old matches. You know TLC's; he
seems risk taking, but talented. I don't want to see this young athlete end his
career like this. I mean come on; you have to agree with me on that. He needs
to tone it down, just like you have."
"Well, your right about that."
Agreed Matt. "And thanks for your concern, I think."
"No problem." said Rob.
"Anything else?"
"So, is Jeff having any regrets?"
"No duh, I talked him down two days
ago at Smackdown. I think I got through his head real good. I forgave him."
"Oh, good. I hate to see brother
relationships fall apart."
"Me too, I guess." Said Matt
unsurely.
"Well, I better get going. Nice
talking with ya. Tell Jeff I said hi and good luck on that date."
"I will." Matt clicked off and turned
to his brother who gave him a, 'who was it?" look.
"It was…um…uh..Rob." Matt sat the
phone down.
"Really? What did he want?"
"Said he was worried and sorry
and…who cares, let's worry about your date." Said Matt trying to change the
subject.
"What did he want?"
"Nothing, he said hi."
"Why?"
"Like I care, come on." Matt pushed
his brother gently towards the steps.
"Why in the hurry." Asked said Jeff
trying to get his grip on the rail. Matt stared down at his watch. "Look at the
time, you are going to be late. Let's get a move on."
"Alright, alright I'm moving."
"Really? What else?"
"Matt's been having weird dreams
lately. Like Nightmares and it's really bothering me. He dreams about his
brother dying and stuff. He told me. Well sort of…" Amy trailed off and tried
to think what Matt said in his dream. "He yelled it I guess." She shook the
thought off and continued brushing through Trish's blond hair.
"Hmmmm…Must be frightful."
"Like, last night, Matt awoke and
called me, thinking Jeff was dead. I told him it was all a dream, so I went
over to his place and comforted him and slept over. You shoulda have heard his
voice. I just knew something was wrong."
"Wow…. Too bad you guys don't live
together."
"We will." Amy pulled Trish's hair
in a bun and let a few of her hairs dangle on the sides of her face. "You look
like a princess."
"I do? "
"Yup, Jeff will die, once he sees
you."
"Now back to the scary dreams." Said
Trish, who was now interested in the subject. "Does their father know about
it?"
"Maybe…" Just then the doorbell
ringed. "I'll be right back." Amy headed out the bedroom.
Trish stood up and headed over to
the mirror. She smiled at herself. I do look like a princess. I hope
Jeff would see that tonight.
She sighed wearily and plopped herself
onto the bed.
