Matt Hardy stepped into the shower of the men's locker room the water poured down his back landing on the hard blue tiled floor. He stood there for a moment letting to water touch his skin cooling his warm skin and almost cleansing the sweat from the match he had earlier with Edge. He rolled his shoulders back trying not to wince at the pain that rippled down his lower body. Edge had really done a number on him, pulling out all the stops, he'd worked mostly on Matt's back. Matt ,still recovering from yet another reccent attack by Brock Lesner, had given his best in the undecided win match. Near the end he lost after recieveing the Edgucator. Matt Hardy shook his head his long brown locks falling around his face. He ran his fingers down his face and grabbed the soap. After washing himself he stepped from the shower with a fresh red towel around his lap. He didn't hear the door opening but had however heard the door slamming shut.
"Hello?" Matt looked around the corner his hand clutching his towel his body still dripping wet from the shower. There had been an ongoing prank going along the locker rooms. The imfamous towel snatcher had yet to be found. Deciding he was just hearing things he changed into a pair of boxers and a pair of gray shorts. He ran lotion up and down his arms and went to apply some deodorent when a pair of hands ran up his abs. A small body pressed against his and he almost assumed that it was Lita. The hands traveled up his chest circling around his shoulders and the nape of his neck. They traced over a brand-new tattoo, the symbol spelling out Lita. He gripped the hands and pulled them off of him. Turning around he was at first shocked at who he saw.
"Stephanie?" He felt a vauge recognition fill him. No his brother's wife had blonde hair not brown, atleast not anymore. "Desire."
"In the flesh and mhm so are you." She trailed a finger down the center of his chest only to have it smacked away. "You know nobody has to find out if we did something about this.." She flipped her hair and pressed herself to him. "Attraction right here and now."
"MMMHMMM" He mumbled hiding a smirk. She rotated her hips against his and pulled herself to his ear.
"No one.." He laughed softly, gruffly. He ran his hands up her arms tightening when he reached the upper flesh. He shoved her backwards, hard, he still had a grip on her arms and he peered coldly into her face which displayed fear. Funny he thought McMahons knew no fear.
"You feel this?" He pulled her hands to his chest. "You'll never get this.. you want to know why?"
"Why?" She regained a small bit of confidence hoping that this was just a game he was playing.
"Because." He pulled her fingers to the tattoo not even flinching when the hands brushed lightly over the red flesh. "I belong to her..Heart, body, soul, and mind. And nobody, not you, not anyone is going to change that."
"B..but.." She stuttered which only maddend him more. His grin was cocky and almost sinister.
"Get out you trashbag ho.. before I tell my wife and your sister what you've been up to." Her eyes widened in fear and she stumbled out of the room. Matt laughed and pulled on a t-shirt. Jeff opened the door and looked at his brother very confused.
"Matt did I miss something?" Jeff began stretching for his match that would be taking place 30 minutes after Lita and Stephanie's.
"Nope…your wife's sister just tried to play a head game…"Matt shoved his foot into a sneaker and laced it up. He started on the other one. "Don't know what she's up to.. she know's Lita would squash her like a bug if she ever found her within ten feet of me.
"You got that right!" Jeff finished his strectching and nodded at his brother. I'm gonna go see Steph before my match you know I gotta get the goodluck kiss."
"I'll come to I want to see Lita and wish her luck on her match tonight." Matt pulled his hair back into a loose ponytail and walked out the door with Jeff.
"Steph are you ready?" Lita put the finishing touches to her outfit. She was wearing a pair of baby blue jeans similar to the pants that the Hardyz wore in the ring. She wore one of her graffiti shirts. Her red hair was out and pooling around her shoulders. Drumming her fingers on the sink she looked towards the back area of the locker room. Stephanie stepped out confidently. She wore an identical pair of pants with a WWF women's division top. Stephanie stretched a bit before actually looking at Lita.
"What's that smell?" Lita sniffed the air opening the door to walk out. She looked at Stephanie a questioning glare stifling her expression.
"It smells like cigarette smoke!" Lita gripped Stephanie's arm. "Steph! I thought you were over this stuff!"
"Well I…" Stephanie began just before she was knocked out of the way. A whisp of light brown hair flashing by her. Stephanie landed on one of the couches where her championship belt lay. She looked up to see who had rudely knocked her over and was met by ice blue eyes similar to her own.
"Oh excuse me…" Desire fanned herself and leaned her head back. On her neck was a reddening mark. Stephanie's fists balled up. "A certain Hardy just can't keep his lips or his teeth to himself." She smirked at the angered pair. "And I'm sure that he kept my hotel key card especially for tonight."
"No Hardy would touch you with a ten foot pole Desire." Stephanie said through gritted teeth. Lita helped her sister in law up from the ground. Lita then stepped to Stephanie's twin her eyes blazing with anger.
"Just make sure that you remember that they are married to us.. you so much as look in their direction ever again and we'll make you felt the side effect of messing with the Hardyz." Her voice was deathly quiet. Desire stayed her ground. Lita made a lunging gesture that sent her fleeing to the back of the locker room.
"Lets go Li." Stephanie pulled on her friends arm. She picked up the women's tag team belts and placed Lita's belt over her shoulder. The fiery red head nodded and followed the bleached blonde out of the locker room only to run straight into Matt and Jeff.
"hey baby what's wrong?" Matt enclosed Lita in his arms.
"My sister in law claims to have had a little fun with you." Matt's eyes widened and took in his wife's anger. "Now that wouldn't be true would it." She knew it wasn't but she needed to hear it.
"Well.. Lita she was in the men's locker room about 10 minutes ago and she came on to me. I told her to get lost." Lita balled her fist up and punched the wall only making a small dent thankfully. Stephanie leaned into Jeff and sighed.
"What are we going to do about her?" Stephanie said fingering the mesh shirt her husband was wearing. She felt this heedy feeling take over her and she smiled. She felt content. She'd never felt this way before. Not even when she was in Georgia getting over her addiction or trying to. It never did go away and she was trying to curb it by smoking ciggaretes. It worked but now she was addicted to tobacco. It killed her every second to lie to her family. But she had to get over it on her own or else it would never happen.
"Lita?" Jeff caught an impish grin on his face. "Well we can't really do anythin' darlin' but Matt on the other hand…"
"Not Lita…" She elbowed him lightly. "I mean Desire."
"Well she hasn't really done anything noteworthy yet." Jeff concluded. "So I mean why bother wasting our energy and time trying to get rid of her if we have nothing to go by. Besides she's not worth the trouble."
"Not worth the trouble?!" Desire seethed at the two happy couples. Matt had calmed Lita down by gently pressing his lips to hers. And Jeff and Stephanie were having a meaningful moment. She let the door close again with out very little noise and picked up her cellphone.
She dialed the number urgently. "Hello? Shane I need you to hurry up with this plan." She paced the locker room her gucci shoes clicking impateintly back and forth. "I don't care how you do it but they need to pay… put this plan in motion now Shane… yeah you better." She hung up and went to the crack in the door. The couple's were walking down the hall. Stephanie was no doubt accompanying Jeff to the ring and Lita and Matt would be waiting for Lita's Match that was coming up within the hour. Her blue eyes stared daggers into the back's of her so-called extended family. Oh she'd get what she wanted sooner or later.
"C'mon JEFF!" Stephanie pounded the mat as her husband struggled to stand up. RVD was about to go for the five star frog splash when Jeff got up and threw RVD down on the hard canvass. She cheered loudly for him and smiled. She should have noticed or heard her brother coming down the ramp. Shane lept into the ring and drop kicked the referee out.
Shane speared Jeff to the mat he then pulled out a pair of brass knucks, that he got from god knew where, and began to pummel him. Stephanie went up top and the crowd heated up giving Shane the signal to stand up and turn around. She dove at him gripping him around the neck and swinging him up in the air. He stuggled and she shoved him forward causing him to land face first on the canvass. She shoved him out of the ring as Jeff began to climb the ropes and pulled a swanton bomb rolling up RVD for the pin. The referee climbed back in the ring seconds later and counted to three his hand slamming weakly on the mat. Stephanie climbed into the ring to check on Jeff who gripped the ropes in an attempt to stand up. He vaugely remembered Shane getting into the ring and raised his head in a panic.
"Steph?" He gripped his stomach from the rolling thunder he received earlier in the match from RVD. He looked around and didn't see her. Instead he felt arms go around his waist. He instinctively wrapped an arm around the shoulders of who he hoped was Stephanie.
"Jeff?" Stephanie helped him out of the ring and up the ramp. The tension in his body quwelled and he allowed her to pull him backstage where he tried to stand up straight. "Baby are you alright?"
"Yeah I'm fine..you worry too much." Jeff grabbed an ice pack that a trainer handed to him. He looked at the match card for the next show and got a pissed off expression on his face. "Who keeps on booking these undecided matches for me and Matt?"
"I'm taking a guess that it would be Shane and Desire and ugh Rose." She grabbed the ice back from him and placed in carefully on his side that had taken most of the Rolling Thunder that RVD had administered. He placed his hands on the wall and hung his head sighing at the cold resolve washing over his pained side.
"They need to stop doing this." Stephanie knew the hazzards of Jeff wrestling when Desire and Shane booked half the matches. She had to get control. She needed to talk to Lina. "I'm going to stop this once and for all."
"Hey..I'm ok alright?" He leaned in and kissed her forehead.
"You always are." She kissed his lips lightly and helped him to the Men's locker room. She had a match in 15 minutes.
"Hey Steph did you hear about the change?" Lita came rushing up Matt in tow.
"Jesus Jeff.. you know in those undecided matches it's a good idea to tak it easy." Matt helped his brother sit while Lita gave the unpleasent news to Stephanie about their match change. Stephanie's hands were burried in her baby blue pant pockets in an attempt to stop herself from hitting something.
"We have to face her and Torrie?" Stephanie ground out. "Something's up."
"What do you mean?" Lita said a perplexed expression masking her features.
"No offense but who would put Desire and Torrie instead of Jazz and Ivory for a tag team title match?" Stephanie said hands on her hips. "They're going to pull something… Shane had those brass knucks tonight.." Her eyes drifted to Jeff's surfacing bruises.
"Stephanie I'm fine stop looking at me like I'm a run over dog." Jeff smiled at her. She looked cute when she worried. But when she worried something was definitely wrong he knew that above all.
"Regal has been kissing ass again no doubt." Matt concluded.
"We need to leave." Stephanie nodded and looked at the guys.
"Are you guys really that worried." Jeff stood up and Stephanie walked to him checking him over.
"Yes!" both Lita and Stephanie replied.
"Alright alright we'll go." Matt grabbed his bag and Jeff picked up his. "Lets go get your stuff."
They walked down the hallway to the women's locker room and opened the door. Lita breathed a sigh of relief. Stephanie grabbed her bag as did Lita. They walked out of the room unaware of the camera that moved with them.
"They can't leave!" Desire yelled at Shane her mouth gaping open that her "family" had just left right before the match.
"Hey it's not my fault!" Shane yelled back. Desire rolled her eyes and got an idea.
"Shane I'm not going to be in a match tonight… but Trish and Molly are.." An evil scowl crept upon her face. "And they'll get the same treatment Stephanie and Lita were going to get…only worse."
WHEW!!! Finally got this chapter out now I can write "Panic"!!!
