Chapter 1
Vince McMahon sighed as he walked into the meeting room to find all his wrestlers waiting impatiently. "Will all of you please calm down? You aren't in here because you are in trouble. You are in here because I have some bad news. Sapphire has suffered another death in her family and she will be out for at least one or two weeks," he said, as they all shook their heads sadly. She had already suffered two deaths before; now the third. "Does she need anyone to be by her side?" Jeff Hardy asked, as Vince nodded. "Yes, as a matter of fact, she requested that you and Trish go be with her. That means you two will be given time off, but I'll let you know right now, it's not a problem that you take time off," he answered, as Trish and Jeff both nodded. "When should we leave?" she asked, as Vince looked at his watch. "Just go to the front office. They'll give you the information," he answered, as they thanked him and then walked out. As they were walking to the desk, Jeff blew out a breath. "I feel so bad for her. First her sister, then her Dad, and now another family member. Do you know who passed?" he asked Trish. "No, I know just as much as you do on what happened," she answered, shrugging. They approached the desk and immediately the secretary smiled sweetly. "Mr. McMahon told me to give you these," she said, handing them both a ticket. "Your flight leaves in four hours, so you better go to the hotel and pack your bags," she added on happily. They thanked her and as they were walking out of the building, Sapphires worst enemy and ex-best friend showed up. "Well where are you going, Mr. Hottie?" she asked, trailing a finger down his cheek. "No where you need to know about Allex. We just really need to go, so if you'll excuse us," he answered, as he grabbed Trish's hand and walked rapidly down the stairs. She turned around and watched as they got in his rental car. "I'll get you in my arms Jeff and when I do, that bitch will never touch you again," she said to herself, referring to Sapphire. She smiled evilly, and walked inside the building.

Once they reached their hotel in Coronado, California, they immediately went to the concierge to find out what Sapphire's room number was. "I'm sorry sir, I cant give you that information," the man said, as Jeff rolled his eyes. "Yes you can. She's our best friend and we need to see her," he replied. "It's okay guys, I'm right here," a voice said from behind. They turned around and couldn't help but gasp when they saw Sapphire. She looked awful. It was obvious she had been crying a lot. "Oh my God honey, come here," Jeff said, as he opened his arms. She walked over to him and hugged him. She then hugged Trish. "Thanks for coming," she said, as tears started falling down her cheeks. "Let's go upstairs," Trish suggested, as she wrapped an arm around her best friend. "We're here for you, okay?" she asked, as Sapphire nodded. "Thank you," she whispered sadly, as they pressed the button for the elevator. "So, if you don't mind me asking, who passed away?" Jeff asked, as they walked into the elevator. "My mother is the one who died. I don't know why she did this to me," she answered, burying her face into her hands, as she started crying. He sighed and pulled her close to him. "She didn't do it on purpose. She loved you. Remember, I lost my mother and she's still watching down on me. Same goes for you," he said, as they walked out. "I guess you're right. I just wish she would have stayed a little longer," she replied, as they approached her hotel suite. She pulled out her key and opened the door. "There are two bedrooms. Either I can sleep with one of you, or I can sleep alone or vice versa," she said, as Trish whispered something into Jeff's ear. "Don't you start your secrets," Sapphire said, trying to smile. "Don't worry, it wasn't a secret. I just said maybe it's better for Jeff to sleep with you. You'll have someone there to hold on to," Trish replied, as Sapphire nodded. "I'd like that, unless you mind," she said, as Jeff shook his head. "No, not at all," he replied, as he picked up his bag. "Well Trish, your bedroom is on the left and I'll show you to mine," Sapphire said, as Jeff followed her to the room. Once inside, he set his bag down and watched as she took off her jacket. It was true he had a physical attraction to her and not only that, he was in love with her. But, he had to remember, he wasn't here for that. "What side do you sleep on?' she asked, as he smiled. "We're best friends, you should know that by now," he answered, as she pretended to think. "Left?" she asked, as he nodded. "Good, because I sleep on the right," she answered, as he put his bag in the closet. "I'm so hungry," Trish complained, entering the room. "You're always hungry," Jeff and Sapphire said in unison. "Now don't you two start ganging up on me," she replied, giving them a mean look. "Oh stop that. How 'bout we all go out to eat? My treat," Jeff said, as they nodded. "Okay, that's cool with me," Sapphire replied. "It's definitely cool with me too!" Trish exclaimed, running out of the room to the front door. Jeff rolled his eyes and smiled. "That girl has got serious problems," he said, as they walked out.
