Trish stormed into Jeff's dressing room. He was sitting in a chair talking on the phone. He seen Trish. "I got to go." He said and hung up. YOU WORTHLESS FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!" Trish screamed at him. She hauled back and slapped him in the face. "Trish you need to back off. This is between Shelby and me." He said. "DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'VE DONE TO HER.? SHE IS THE SWEETEST GENTLEST SOUL IN THE WORLD AND YOU RIPPED HER HEART OUT. DON'T TELL ME IT'S NOT MY BUISNESS SHE'S MY BEST FRIEND. WHY THE HELL DID YOU DO THIS SHIT TO HER.CHEATING ON HER WITH THAT WHORE AND THEN MARRYING HER!" Trish yelled. "Don't talk about Stacey like that I love her. I'm sorry I hurt Shelby. I'm hurting too." Jeff said. "DON'T TELL ME HOW TO TALK THAT BITCH IS A WHORE! OH YOUR HURTING HUH, WELL DID YOU THROW UP 4 TIMES OVER THIS SHIT? I DON'T THINK SO.DONT TELL ME ABOUT HOW YOU'RE HURTING YOU LITTLE BITCH. IM GOING TO MAKE SURE TAKER AND BROCK GET YOU LEGALLY IN A MATCH AND WHEN THEY GET THROUGH WITH YOU THERE WONT BE NOTHING LEFT FOR THAT LITTLE SLUT OF YOURS! YOU LOVE STACEY HUH? YOU DON'T KNOW A DAMN THING ABOUT LOVE YOU LITTLE PUNK! DON'T YOU GO NEAR SHELBY AGAIN OR I WILL KILL YOU MYSELF!" Trish screamed at him. Jeff didn't say anything else he just hung his head. Trish spun around and left the room. God she hated him.
Trish went to Taker's dressing room. Shelby was sitting between Brock and Taker. She looked horrible. "Come on sweetie. I'm taking you back to our room. You can stay with us." Trish said. "You have a match." Shelby said. "Darlin to hell with our matches. We want to take ya home." Taker said. "I'll wait here with Brock. I'll be fine." She said. Trish looked at her she looked like she could fall apart any second. "Really guys. I'll wait here with Brock till the shows over." She said. Her voice was hoarse from crying. Trish wanted to cry herself to see her friend like that. "Well if you're sure?" Trish said. "I'm up next and then Taker. We'll leave after that." She said. Shelby nodded. Trish came over to her and hugged her. "I'll be back in a while." Trish said. Shelby stood up and went into the bathroom and shut the door. She dialed Vince on her cell phone. "Hello." Vince said. "Hi Vince, its Shelby." Shelby said. "What can I do for you?" Vince said. "I need a 6 months leave of absence." She said. "What's wrong Shelby?" Vince asked. Shelby told him what had happened with Jeff. "Shelby I'm so sorry." Vince said. "I just can't face seeing him everyday right now." She said. "Take all the time you need Shelby, your job will be waiting when you come back." He said. "Thanks Vince." She said. They said bye and she hung up and walked back to Taker's dressing room. Taker had left to get ready for his match. "Are you okay Shelby?" Brock asked. "Yea." She said and sat down staring into space. All she could think about was Jeff the way he touched her and loved her the way his hair was always falling in his eyes. She remembered the first time they had made love and how wonderful it was. God how could she still love him yet hate him at the same time. Brock saw the pain in her eyes. "Shelby come here baby girl." Brock said. She looked at him like she just realized he was there. She walked over to him and he pulled her in his lap and wrapped his arms around her. "Brock I'm broke inside and I don't think I'll ever feel right again." She said in a quite voice. "Shelby I now right now your hurting bad, but I promise you it will get better. It's just going to take time." He said. Shelby didn't say anything she felt like she would never feel normal again.
Trish insisted that she stay with her and Brock. She sent Brock and Taker to get Shelby's stuff out of her room. There was a knock at the door. Trish opened it and about had a cow. "What the fuck are you doing here?" she asked Jeff. "I want to see Shelby." He said. "Fuck you." Trish said. "Trish let him in." Shelby said. Jeff came in. "Shelby I'm sorry I hurt you I never meant for this to happen." He said. "Jeff nothing you can say will make this right. You should have told me months ago how you felt. What you did was cruel." She said. "Do you remember the first night we made love?" she asked. "Yes." He said. "You told me I could trust you, that you wanted me forever, that you wouldn't hurt me." She said. "Shelby I'm sorry." Jeff said again. "The thing is Jeff you have been lying to me for months, telling me you loved me while you were fucking Stacey. How do I know if everything you ever told me was a lie. Our whole relationship from start to finish was a lie. The truth is you probably just wanted to fuck me so you told me what I wanted to hear." Shelby said. "That's not true." Jeff said. "Jeff leave and don't come near me again." She said turning away from him. Jeff looked at her and turned and left. Trish came over and hugged her. "It's going to be okay." She said. Taker and Brock came in with her things. Taker came over and hugged her. "I'll see ya in the morning." He said. "Okay." She said. He left and Brock asked her was she hungry. "No, I'm going to take a shower." She said. Shelby took a shower and threw on a t-shirt and boxers. She went out and laid down on the couch. "Shelby you take the bed with Trish, I'll sleep on the couch." Brock said. "Brock I'm fine your to big to sleep on this couch." She said. Brock was about to argue but she didn't look up to it, so he just handed her a pillow and a blanket. She pulled the blanket over her and promptly dropped off to sleep. "I just want to kill Jeff." Brock said. "Get in line. I called Vince earlier and so did Taker. "He's got a match with Jeff next week on raw. You get him the next week." Trish said. "Good I can't wait." Brock said.
Shelby awoke several time in the middle of the night. She would lay there and think about Jeff and the tears would come again. She wondered how much a person could cry. Brock heard her and got up and sat beside the couch on the floor just holding her hand while she cried. Shelby knew she had to get away from here. She was just bringing her friends down and they had there on lives to live.
