Lita lay motionless, like she had for the past 3 days. Matt was perched beside her bed, a death grip on her hand. Jeff was pacing back and forth, chewing his nails all the while, a nervous habit he had yet to get rid of. Suddenly, Jeff stopped pacing. Her walked over to her bad and took her by the shoulders. Matt was watching him all the while, a little confused and dizzy from watching Jeff pacing. Jeff took her by the shoulders, and gently shook her.
"Lita, Lita, can you hear me? Please wake up or something"Jeff pleaded. Matt looked at him, his brother was tearing up again. Matt's eyes were blood-red from the tears and lack of sleep. The medicine that the doctor had given Lita to relax had not worn off, like it was supposed to do 48 hours ago. Matt had every intention to sue the doctor for malpractice if...if...well, Matt didn't even want to think about it. Jeff was still shaking Lita, to no avail. Matt stood up and took his brother in his arms. He held the embrace, gently swaying back and forth, stroking his hair, something he hadn't done in a while. Jeff cried on his shoulder, and hugged his older brother tightly.
"I wish she would wake up, she will wake up, right Matt?"
"I hope so, Jeff, I hope so." Matt responded. The two were still in the embrace when the hospital door opened, revealing Chris Jericho. He had been coming by everyday, along with Trish.
"Oh, I'm sorry to interrupt, I'll be outside waiting." Y2J said. As he shut the door.
"No, come on in Chris. We just we're having a "brother 2 brother" moment." Jeff said.
"So, does that mean that the little "Hardy feud" is over?" Jeff looked at Matt, who was looking at his feet, a little ashamed that the "Hardy feud", as it had been named in the locker room, escalated as far as it did.
"Yeah, I think that the feud went a little too far anyway. So, do ya forgive me bro?" Matt asked looking at his brother with sincerity in his chocolate brown eyes.
"Well, I don't know...." Jeff laughed, " you did try to destroy my stuffed lion! Of course I forgive you!" The brothers laughed and hugged again.
"Aw geez, I started a hug fest!! Well, I'm gonna tell Red the good news while you two go get something to eat, Lord knows you need it. Now, GO!!" Matt and Jeff listened to Chris and were walking to the door, it swung open. The doctor walked in and Matt and Jeff froze. Chris noticed how both the brothers had their fists closed, using all of their strength not to beat the fire out of the doctor. After all, it was his fault that Lita had not woken up yet. The doctor walked over to Lita's bed and checked all of the machines that were hooked up to her. He then walked back over to the trio.
"Well, everything is about the same. She just hasn't woken up yet..."
"Whose fault is that?" Jeff interrupted.
"Well, we did give her a little too much of the medication, but it should wear off soon. When it does, we will put her in surgery, and then begin chemo treatments. We should be able to remove the tumor without causing any damage. This should take care of the problem of her sight. The chemo treatments will make her weak, but it will help. She will have to continue treatments for a while after the tumor is removed, to make sure that the cancer does not return. We are estimating that she will be cancer free, if she is lucky, in about 3 years. But, she first has to wake up. Do you understand everything so far?"
"Well, doc, if she doesn't wake up, and you can't get that tumor out, I will sue you for malpractice, and take away your license and everything you have. Do you understand me?" Matt said, Jeff and Chris nodding their heads in agreement. The doctor just looked at the three and walked back out of the room.
"Jerk, why do I get a bad feeling about him?" Jeff asked
"I don't know, but I get it too. Why does he talk in the third person? Anyway, let me talk to Red, while you two go get some food and exercise! Now, go!!!" Chris said as he pushed the brothers out of the door. He walked over to Lita's bed and sat down in the chair beside it. "Geez, Red, how do you put up with those two as much as you do? It's really amazing! Well, you'll be happy to know that your two boys are back together. No more fighting for the Hardys, unless you count that idiot doctor. But, you gotta wake up girl! Everybody's praying for ya! When you wake up, you going to have your surgery, and get all better. You'll be able to see again, and then you can go back and kick Trish's butt and get the Women's title back!" Chris sat there for awhile, deciding to give the brothers all the time alone that they could handle. As Chris was going to the door, Lita started to stir. She let out a groan and rolled over. Chris ran to her bedside. "Lita, can you hear me? Say something!"
"Chris.....Whats...Whats going on?" Lita mumbled.
"Lita, don't move, I'm going to go get Matt and Jeff, and maybe a doctor. Just wait a second, k?" Chris ran to the door and flung it opened. He ran down the hall to the cafeteria. "MATT, JEFF!! Guys, she woke up!! She woke up!!" The guys looked up, dropped their sandwiches and ran past Chris towards Lita's room. They were met at the door by a nurse and a doctor. At first they weren't going to let them in at first, but they pushed their way through. Soon the doctors moved away, letting the brothers by. The doctor pulled Matt aside while Jeff talked to Lita.
"Her sight is, as we thought, still gone. Now that she woke up, I think that it would be best if we start surgery as soon as possible. We will probably begin to prepare her for surgery in a couple of hours." The doctor explained. Matt looked at him sternly.
"If you give her too much medicine, or screw up during surgery or anything, not only will I sue the heck out of you, but, well, let's just say I wouldn't walk down any dark alleys if anything goes wrong. You better go get ready for surgery, doc!" He said as he patted him on the shoulder, and walked back to Lita's bedside. Jeff was holding her hand, telling her how the brothers made up.
"Is it true Matt? Are ya'll not fighting anymore?"
"Yeah babe, no more fighting. We can all be together again." Matt replied as he took her hand and gently kissed it. As they were explaining everything that had happened in the federation for the last week, a nurse walked in. She asked the guys to leave while she prepared Lita for surgery. Jeff kissed Lita on the hand, told her he would see her after the surgery, and that he loved her. Lita smiled at him, and told him that she loved him to. He walked out of the room and left his brother in the room to say his piece. Matt took both of her hands, and she smiled at him.
"Lita, I'm sorry for everything that I did to you. I hope that you will be able to forgive me. When you collapsed, my life literally crumbled. On the ambulance drive all I could do was pray that you would make it and that you knew that I loved you and was sorry. I love you, babe." Matt chuckled. "I love you in a little different way then Jeff does, a little different."
"I love you too Matt. In a little different way then I do Jeff. Matt, will I have to loose my hair?" Lita laughed.
"Probably so, hey, it won't be that bad, we can always use Miracle Grow, and if that doesn't work, we could always use a bald female wrestler. I'm sure Stacey and Torrie would be so jealous!" Matt joked. Lita responded with a laugh and a swat to the arm.
"I'll see you later babe.!" Matt said as he kissed her forehead, then left, letting the nurse get Lita ready. He ran off to find Jeff and Chris. They all needed to take a trip to the hospital chapel.
