Chapter 20
Sally sat on the sofa watching Cammie run around looking for a pair of shoes.
"So where are you going?" Sal asked while Cammie pulled her up to look under the cushions.
"Me, Faye and Clara are going clubbing, that's ok with you isn't it you don't mind?" Cam stopped searching to look at her sister.
"Course I don't mind! Why would I?"
"Just thought you might need me or something, you know with you being upset earlier"
Sally hugged her sister "Cam I'm fine plus I can tell you really wanna go so go"
Cammie smiled from ear to ear "Love you Sally, do you know where my shoes are?"
"Try your bedroom its normally where I chuck your things when I fall over them!!"
"I'm not that bad!!" Cammie pouted
"Y'are now go"
With that Cammie ran up the stairs found her shoes, ran back down, kissed her sister goodbye, grabbed her bag and coat and was out the door.
Sally sat in the living room with the lights out and the tv on though she wasn't watching it, she was thinking back to earlier when she kissed Jeff but heard her sister arriving with Matt and Amy so she had walked away from Jeff before they walked in. Sal smiled when she remembered the look on his face when he realized what she had done, he looked so lost but yet so adorable, then when he worked out why she had done it he just looked happy and no one knew anything had gone on.

"Jeff do you know where Matt is?" Amy shouted down the hall of the hotel they were staying in.
"Nah, he said he was going out but I don't know where"
"Ok see ya later skittles!"
Jeff watched as the red head disappeared down the hall, then let himself into his hotel room which he shared with his brother. Once in the room he flicked on the tv and lay down on his bed.
Sally kissed him! He wasn't quite sure if he had imagined it, he put his fingers to his lips and remembered how soft her lips felt on his own. He wanted her, wanted to know everything about her, hold her, kiss her, make love to her! But he didn't know if that would ever be possible. Jeff knew Sally liked him after all she had kissed him, but how could she be with him if she wouldn't leave Mark because of wanting to stay with her sister. 'Maybe Matt can charm Cammie into leaving Bryan' he thought but then hit himself on the head for thinking such thoughts.
"Well if I can't have her, I can at least talk to her!! God Jeff you're talking to yourself again!!" He walked over to the table and picked up the phone.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sally was dragged out of her thoughts by the sound of the telephone ringing. Groaning she pulled herself out of her comfy chair and walked over to the phone.
"Hello"
"Hey Sally its Jeff"
"I knew that, Hey"
"What how did you know it was me? You got caller id or something? but then you still wouldn't know it was me?" Jeff hit himself on the head again for sounding so stupid!
Sally giggled " No I knew it was you when you said hey"
"Oh right sorry well I....."
"Hang on let me move the phone"
Jeff heard movement on the other end and wondered what Sally was doing.
Sally fought with the phone line, telling herself to make Cammie give the cordless phone she had hidden in her room back, and made her way back to her comfy chair with the phone.
"Sorry wanted to sit in my comfy chair so I moved you! What were you saying?"
Jeff had forgotten he was too busy thinking about how cute Sally must look sat in the big old chair Cammie had snuggled into when Sally was asleep on him a few months ago.
"Oh erm just felt like talking to you, if you're not busy"
"Nope I'm all alone Cammie's gone clubbing with some girls from work and the lads don't come home till tomorrow morning! So what you been doing?"
"Well earlier today I got my hair done by this beautiful girl, you may know her!"
Sally smiled and Jeff could hear the smile in her voice, "Oh really, what was her name?"
"You know I can't actually remember!"
"That's a shame then, I can't tell you if I know her or not"
"Oh I think you do, you say hello to her every time you look in a mirror!"
"Actually I tend to go 'yuk' when I look in a mirror"
"At what? the person standing behind you?"
"You're sweet"
" I know! I'm made of sugar! Ugh I sound like Shane! That's not good!"
"Why I think Shane's kinda hot!!"
"I'm insulted you prefer the dork with the face paint to me!"
"Look who's talking! I seem to remember a younger Mr. Jeff Hardy on a home movie! or in a magazine called extreme!!"
"Yeah but I can pull it off!"
"uh huh! keep telling yourself that! besides I never said I preferred Shane"
"So do you prefer me then??"
"No I prefer Shannon!!"
"Really?" Jeff tried to hide the disappointment in his voice
Sally laughed " No, the guy my teddy is named after!"
"What's your teddy called?"
"Guess"
"Mark?" Jeff gave what he thought was the obvious answer
"um no" Sally was shocked with herself for not feeling guilty about talking to and kissing Jeff, and Jeff saying Mark didn't even phase her.
"Erm...... Jeff?"
"Congratulations you got the right answer"
Jeff was now jumping round the room, Sally really did like him!
"Do I get a prize?"
"Dunno I'll think about it"
Sally and Jeff continued to talk about anything and everything they could think of for hours until Sally yawned loudly.
"You sound tired, wow its 3 already, where did the time go?"
"Time flies when your having fun" Sally stated
"Sure does, you best get some sleep, give me a call when you can ok?"
" I'll call you soon, I promise"
"Good! Night Sally, sweet dreams"
"Night Jeff"
Sally hung up the phone and crawled up the stairs to her bed, she didn't want to sleep in Cammies' bed cos no doubt when Cammie got home she would be rather drunk and Sally wouldn't get any peace. So Sally climbed into her bed and for the first time in what seemed like forever got a proper nights sleep, and yet again she had Jeff Hardy to thank.
Sally sat on the sofa watching Cammie run around looking for a pair of shoes.
"So where are you going?" Sal asked while Cammie pulled her up to look under the cushions.
"Me, Faye and Clara are going clubbing, that's ok with you isn't it you don't mind?" Cam stopped searching to look at her sister.
"Course I don't mind! Why would I?"
"Just thought you might need me or something, you know with you being upset earlier"
Sally hugged her sister "Cam I'm fine plus I can tell you really wanna go so go"
Cammie smiled from ear to ear "Love you Sally, do you know where my shoes are?"
"Try your bedroom its normally where I chuck your things when I fall over them!!"
"I'm not that bad!!" Cammie pouted
"Y'are now go"
