"She doesn't want to see you right now Shane." Amy said and went to
shut the woman's locker room door.
"Can I just go in? Somehow get her to the door." Shane begged and pushed the door back open. Amy stepped outside and shut the door behind her.
"Shane, you're my friend and I love you. I don't want to hurt you but you really hurt Angel. You pushed her over; she's just keeping her distance because she doesn't know what you're capable of or what you'll do."
"But Amy you know what I will and will not do! Can you please tell her?"
"Shane I really don't want to get involved in your business."
"But I'm asking you to!"
"Shane sometimes you just need to learn to let go." Amy said and walked back into the locker room. Shane leaned against the wall and sighed.

A woman with electric blue hair, baggy black pants and a Hurricane t- shirt on walked around backstage. She stopped at the men's locker room and knocked. Matt opened it.
"Destiny!" He exclaimed. They both hugged each other tightly.
"What brings you here?" Matt asked. Destiny drew away.
"Where's Shane?" She asked.
"Around somewhere."
"I really need to talk to him."
"Before shows Jeff sits alone on a staircase in the halls. Everyone knows that. Maybe Shane's with Jeff, or he's doing the same thing."
"Oh maybe. Can you show me where Jeff is? Or at least where the staircases are?"
"Sure. Follow me." Matt said and they began walking down a hall.
~~~~~
"He's down there." Matt said when he heard someone playing the guitar and singing lowly. Destiny smiled.
"He's still a rock star?" She asked.
"Yes in his mind he's a rock star." Matt said and they both cracked up laughing. When they got to the staircase they saw Jeff sitting on the stairs singing and playing the guitar. Shane stood near him bobbing his head. Jeff stopped playing and ran up to Destiny to hug her.
"Oh my god Destiny! How you been?" Jeff exclaimed.
"You would know if you called once in awhile!" Destiny joked. Shane nodded to signify that he said hello.
"I have got to talk to you Shane. It's important." Destiny said Shane nodded.
"Go on."
"In front of Matt and Jeff?" She asked. Matt and Jeff pretended to be offended.
"Yeah I don't care. It's only the Hardy's." Shane said. Again Matt and Jeff pretended to be offended.
"Ok. Modesty's out of the mental ward." Destiny blurted out. Shane, Matt and Jeff's mouths dropped.
"When?" Matt recovered first. Destiny paused.
"I'm not sure. I seen her two days ago walking around and she wouldn't give me a straight answer."
"What color is her hair?" Shane finally recovered. Destiny paused again and looked around nervously.
"It's black." She answered. Shane let out a sigh of relief. Angel wasn't Modesty. But now he had screwed up with Angel and he had to make it right.
~~~~~~
"You don't need Shane anyway. You're too good for him." Angel said. Nidia was upset because Shane hadn't really talked to her lately. Angel didn't dare tell Nidia about the other night.
"I don't think so. Shane was perfect." Nidia said pitifully and looked at the floor. Angel nervously played with her hair. ' "He wasn't Nidia. Trust me."
"I don't know."
"Please Nidia trust me. He's an asshole. You don't need him."
"How do you know?" Nidia asked. Angel paused to think.
"Can you just trust me on this? Please?"
"What do you know about him that I don't know?" Nidia was getting offensive. She was also getting too close with what had happened the other night.
"I have a really good people sense. You were really nice to me since I first got here and you always went out of your way for me. I don't want you to get hurt," Angel said, talking a lot and fast to either make Nidia agree with her or confuse her. It worked. Nidia just sat there.
"Well you do know no matter what you say I'm going to be bummed because I really like him." Nidia said. Angel sighed.
"Yeah."
~~~~~
Do you think she's dangerous or anything?" Matt asked. Shane couldn't help but smile. Everything that was happening to him seemed fake, like it belonged in a move or in a book. But that was real life. It really was happening.
"Well she did attack him before." Jeff pointed out.
"Yeah I don't think she's lethal. I don't think she'd kill anyone." Destiny said.
"Do you have any thoughts about this at all Shane?" Matt asked.
"Of course I do. I'm just thinking." Shane answered.
"I don't think Modesty would kill anyone either." Jeff agreed with Destiny.
"Aw so the armed forces can't protect me?" Shane asked sarcastically getting edgy. Everyone caught it.
"Don't snap at us, we're trying to help you." Matt was never one to be walked all over.
"Yeah." Shane wasn't ready to admit he was wrong yet. He was still to busy thinking about Angel and how to get things just right between them. He had completely forgotten about Nidia.
~~~~~~
The Hurricane's music hit. Angel ran out of the women's locker room, down the hall and walked down the ramp next to Shane. She was continue to accompany him down to the ring but she wouldn't stand there and wait with him. She didn't fully trust him.
During the match Angel jumped on the apron to tell the referee something. Shane was being suplexed by The Rock. The Rock was too close to the ropes and as he was bringing Shane down, Shane accidentally kicked Angel in the head. Angel fell off the apron and whacked her head off the steal steps. She laid there unconscious.
The last thing she remembered before everything got dark was Shane holding her and crying repeating "I'm sorry".
"Can I just go in? Somehow get her to the door." Shane begged and pushed the door back open. Amy stepped outside and shut the door behind her.
"Shane, you're my friend and I love you. I don't want to hurt you but you really hurt Angel. You pushed her over; she's just keeping her distance because she doesn't know what you're capable of or what you'll do."
"But Amy you know what I will and will not do! Can you please tell her?"
"Shane I really don't want to get involved in your business."
"But I'm asking you to!"
"Shane sometimes you just need to learn to let go." Amy said and walked back into the locker room. Shane leaned against the wall and sighed.
