Chapter 6

"I think we should. Just to give her a little more happiness," he said shrugging.

Amy happily agreed. When they walked over to Bailey she had a humoungus smile on her face. "We'll do it for you Bailey," Matt said smiling. They both looked at eachother nervously. Matt shrugged one more time and wrapped his arms around her. When their mouths finally pressed together, Bailey started jumping up and down. Matt and Amy were so deep into the kiss. After one minute, Bailey was surprised they hadn't "come up for air". "Um...ok, you can stop," Bailey said laughing. They didn't though. They just kept on. "Ok before you guys like make out heavily, I'm going back to my toys," she said meanly. They broke off when they heard her. They both were panting and at the same time smiling. "You are very smart for a 5 year old. Where do you get all of these words from," Amy asked Bailey curiously. She shrugged. "I just hear them," she said walking to her toys. "You think we got her satisfied?" Matt asked laughing.

"I would think so," Amy said laughing along with him. He hugged her tightly. "Thank you Amy. Thank you for everything," he said kissing her forehead.

Today was their court date. Matt and Amy were extremely nervous. "I'm going to lose her, I'm going to lose her," Matt said as a tear came down his eye. "Matt, relax. They can't give a sweet child like Bailey, to a bitch like Samantha," Amy said trying to make him feel better. Before he could respond, Bailey came in. "Mommy, Daddy, there is a police dude at the front door," she said. Matt shot up from where he was sitting. "What does he want?" Amy asked. "He said he wanted to talk to Daddy," she said sadly.

Matt nodded and walked downstairs. "Hello officer, what can I do for you?" Matt asked.

"We are here to take Bailey Saxe to court. Court rule says that neither parent can bring a child, because it can take offense to one another," he said. Matt rolled his eyes and decided not to argue. "Bailey, come down here!" he yelled. She walked down in her little strawberry dress she got when she and Amy went shopping. "Sweetie, you're going to go to court with this nice police officer, but Amy and I will see you there, k?" Matt asked trying not to cry. "Ok." The police officer took her hand and walked her out to the car. Matt watched as the car drove away. "I know I'm going to lose her," he said walking up the stairs.

"Matt, don't say that. You're making it harder than you need too," Amy said rolling her eyes. He sat on the bed and rolled his head back and forth. "Here let me help you," Amy said as she got behind him. She started to give him a shoulder massage that really did take some of the stress away. "Thanks Amy, that feel good," he said smiling. He turned to her and hugged her. "Let's go get custody of Bailey," Matt said reassuringly. Amy smiled as she and Matt walked out the door.

Everything was going well, until the question that could hurt everything was asked.

"Mr. Hardy, what is your job?" Samantha's lawyer asked. He hesitated for a second but then answered. "I'm a professional wrestler," he said nervously. "Ok, and when do you get home?" the man asked.

"Not very much, but I can ask my boss to give me time off," Matt said. The lawyer nodded and then asked him what was Amy's job. "She's also a professional wrestler," he said.

"So that means both of you won't be home very much. How is this young girl going to live?" the man asked. "I have my father and Amy has her mother. When we come home we can gladly take care of her," Matt said angrily. "Very well, I'm done your honor," the lawyer said as Matt stepped out of the box.

Next up was Samantha. She sat in the box as Matt's lawyer approached her. "My first question is, why did Mr. Hardy and Ms. Dumas find your daughter bruised and beat up in a locker room closet?" he asked sternly. "Well, as me and Bailey were walking to the arena, a guy attacked us and started beating on her. He then took her and I didn't see her again, until I got to the hospital when she was with Matt. So I believe Matt was the one who attacked us, cause he was jealous," Samantha screamed.

Matt and Amy both shook their heads. That was the biggest lie they had ever heard. Pretty much everything she said was all lies. After 8 questions, the judge left and would soon return to make her decision. Matt was nervous when the judge walked back in with a file in her hand. "Today has been very hectic. Both of their stories are hard to believe, but I have come to my conclusion." "The state of North Carolina is giving Bailey Saxe to...
