addicted. I never thought that I would be able to do that! It's so
totally awesome to hear all that good stuff! MUCHAS GRACIAS!!
"Thank you for watching over me." My blue gray eyes connected with his bright green ones. He smiled through his pain and touched my bruised cheek lightly.
"You're awake," I smiled happily.
"Yeah, I am."
"It's about time! We were all worried about you!"
"I love you Case," he blurted out.
"I know. Me too," I said as he kissed the top of my head. "How are you feeling?"
"Well, aside from this massive concussion and my broken rib, I would say I'm doin pretty damn well," he laughed hurting himself.
"Yeah, I know the feeling. I'd like to introduce you to my dislocated arm," I said pointing to my arm that hung in a sling.
"BRO!! You're up!" Matt ran into the room and hugged Jeff carefully. Amy, Shane, Adam, Chris, and Mark followed.
"Yeah, thanks to Case," Jeff answered smiling down at me.
"How are you doing Angel?" Shane asked taking my hand in his and placing a soft kiss on my forehead.
"Alright, I suppose," I replied as Mark walked over to me.
"Darlin, Vince wanted me to tell you both to get better, but also that you'll have the time off to get better. You and Jeff will be leaving tonite for home," Mark explained.
"I get to go home?" I questioned.
"Yeah, kiddo, you do," Adam smiled. I looked at Shane and kissed him softly.
"You just get back to me and now I have to leave you," I said.
"Yeah, but to get yourself better. You need the time off," Shane said with a smile.
"I'm gonna miss you," I said.
"Well, I'll call you all the time and IM you. You can call me anytime you want! Day or nite," Shane said.
"I know. How long do ya think I'll be out for?" I asked looking around at everyone.
"Oh, about a month," Chris responded. "Your injuries are pretty bad."
"You'll be back before me," Jeff added. "I'm out for at least 2 months, I would say."
"Wow, that's a lot of time away from you all," I said smiling slightly.
"Well, Adam, we best be leaving if we're going to make it to the house show tonite," Mark said.
"Yeah, true. Take care kid. I love ya. Call me if you need me. I'll be there in a second!" Adam said kissing my cheek carefully.
"I love you Case. Get better!" Mark demanded with a laugh. I nodded as he kissed the top of my head. I watched them leave the room and my eyes drifted over to Amy who stood back with her arms crossed over her chest, hugging herself tightly.
"Ames, you can come closer," I said.
"I, I, I'm gonna get some coffee," she stuttered as she turned around as fast as possible and left the room.
"Matt, is she alright?" I asked.
"She's blaming herself for you guys being in here," he responded.
"Why?" I asked shaking my head.
"Because they were the reason you guys fell off the ladder," Chris answered.
"Huh?" I said with a baffled look on my face.
"Amy and I, well, we're the ones invading RAW tonite. And to make our comeback really mean something, we lost the belts for ya," Matt said. "We pushed the ladder over while you two were climbing up to get the belts. We never expected you guys to get this injured. We're so sorry."
"Well, shit happens. It's definitely not Amy's fault," Jeff said.
"Chris, how are you and Rob doin?" I asked.
"We're in so much better shape than the two of you! We got out of there with a bruised shoulder and a swollen knee," Chris smiled as Amy entered the room.
"I'm so sorry!" She burst out in tears just as the words escaped her mouth.
"Ames, it's not your fault. You did what you had to do. Don't be sorry about anything," I said.
"Yeah, we'll live through this. We're strong!" Jeff smiled.
"I can't help but apologize. You both are in here because of me!" she said walking towards the bed.
"Amy, listen to us. It's okay! They're not that bad of injuries! We'll be back in that ring in no time!" I said.
"Well, your flight leaves in 2 hours. We should get your release papers and prescriptions so we can get you two to the airport," Shane said with a slight tone of sadness in his voice. I smiled at him as Matt got up to get the nurse.
Matt, Amy, and Shane took us to the airport. The ride was silent except for the sobs that came from Amy. I put both mine and Jeff's carry on bag over my shoulder and helped him into the terminal. The others carried our other bags. We checked our bags just in time to hear our plane being called. I kissed Amy's cheek softly as she continued to cry. Matt hugged Jeff carefully and walked over to me.
"Casey, Jeff's still not in the best shape ever. Watch him carefully. And make sure he rests! I love you Kiddo," Matt said hugging me loosely. I sighed in his ear as he kissed my cheek. He walked over to Amy and tried to comfort her as Shane wrapped his arms around me.
"I love you Shane. Be careful," I said with tears beginning to roll down my cheeks. He kissed one away and smiled at me.
"Hey, no tears. Okay beautiful? You can see me tonite on RAW and I'll call you after the show. I love you so rest up," he said kissing my lips tenderly.
"Alright. Make sure Amy gets over this thing. Get it into her brain that she didn't cause this!" I said with a laugh.
"Easier said than done babe," he laughed. "You'd better go. I'll call you."
"Okay! I love you guys!" I said as I walked over to Jeff to help him walk.
"OH!!! CRYSTAL WILL BE PICKING YOU UP!!!" Matt yelled to us. I waved back at him before we boarded the plane.
"Wow, look at us. We're a mess," Jeff joked.
"I know. How do we always get these things to happen to us?" I laughed. Jeff shrugged before he leaned over and kissed my cheek. "What was that for?"
"Just for watching over me last nite and for forgiving me," he smiled.
"You were awake?!" I exclaimed shocked.
"Yeah, I was awake," he laughed.
"Why didn't you let me know?"
"I thought you needed the sleep. Plus you just looked so peaceful. Like a real angel," he said looking out the window.
"Well, I guess that kiss proved that nothing can split us up, huh?" I said softly.
"Case, I always knew nothing could split us up. We're the inseparable duo!" he laughed.
"I guess we really are. Even when we get injured!" I joked. "It'll be good to go home for awhile, won't it?"
"Yeah, I've kinda been craving to go home," he said.
"Me too. It's weird. I've never wanted to go home like this before. It's almost like I'm home sick. But then again, with the way my old home was, why would I have been home sick?!" I laughed.
"True. Maybe I'll see about stayin in Matt and Amy's room while I'm there. Just so I can have some company and you can have some company when Dad goes out," he said looking into my eyes.
"Yeah, that'd be nice," I smiled before slipping on my headphones. He nudged my shoulder lightly and I looked over at him with a questioning look.
"Whattcha listenin to?" he asked.
"Our Lady Peace," I answered slipping then down around my neck.
"Can I listen with you?" he asked. I nodded as we rested our heads together on the back of the seats. He pulled his side of the headphones over his head and we began to listen to the music together.
"Oh my God! Shannon told me it was pretty bad but he didn't tell me it was this bad!" Crystal said running up to us in the airport. I smiled at her as she kissed Jeff cheek and hugged me carefully. We walked over to luggage claim and grabbed our bags before she drove us home.
"Thanks for getting us," I said breaking the silence in the car.
"No problem. Are you guys doin alright? Do we need to stop and get anything?" she asked.
"Nope, we're good. We just wanna go home," Jeff said placing his hand on my stomach softly as I rested my head on his lap.
"Gil's pretty worried about you guys," she said.
"I'm not surprised. That's Dad for ya," Jeff said letting out a quiet chuckle.
"He would have picked you two up if it wasn't for the fact that he had to pick Luna up from the vets," she said. My eyes shot open as I looked at Jeff with concern in my eyes.
"What happened to her?" Jeff asked calmly for me.
"She got her foot caught in a hole and he was afraid that something happened to it cause she was limping. But she's fine, nothing serious. Just a bruise," she answered.
I relaxed and closed my eyes again, drifting into a light sleep. I slept the rest of the way home and it felt as though Jeff did the same. I woke up just as we began driving up the driveway. I sat up to see the house come into view. Crystal turned off the car as Gil ran out to greet us with Luna and Liger right on his heels. I slowly and carefully got out of the car as he rushed up to me.
"Go right on inside the house and up to your room. Crystal and I will carry in your stuff. Bring Jeff with you. He'll stay in your room for the time being so you two won't be lonely. Now go!" Gil demanded as he hugged me. I laughed quietly at his demands before wrapping my arm carefully around Jeff's waist and helped him into the house and up the stairs to my room. We sat on the bed and waited for our stuff to be brought up to us.
"I just wanna change into some comfy clothes, lie down, and watch RAW," I said with a sigh.
"I'm right there with ya babe," Jeff laughed as Gil and Crystal brought our stuff in.
"I already got some of your clothes Jeff. Do you need me to help you change?" Gil asked holding out a pair of sweats and a faded black wife- beater. Jeff shook his head and took them from his father.
"Casey, do you need any help?" Crystal asked as I took out a pair of lounge pants and a loose short tank top. I shook my head no and she smiled before walking out with Gil following her. I shut the door behind them and tried to change my shirt.
"Ow!" I exclaimed getting my dislocated arm caught. Jeff walked over to me and smiled as he carefully worked my shirt over my head and helped me put my other one on. He kissed my shoulder softly and I smiled. "Thanks."
"No problem. Can you get your pants?" he asked as I fought with the buttons on my jeans. I shook my head as he chuckled and carefully undid them. I slipped out of them and pulled up my lounge pants. He tied the strings and then worked on his own clothes. He got it done himself without much problem and we relaxed on my bed. I turned on RAW as Gil knocked on the door.
"Come in," Jeff and I announced. Gil came in with a laugh carrying a try with cookies and two glasses of chocolate milk.
"I thought you might want a snack," he said setting the try between us.
"Thanks," we said in unison causing him to laugh again.
"I'm going to say goodnite now. If you need anything just holla," he said shutting the door behind him.
"Well King, it was definitely an amazing nite last nite at Wrestlemania!" JR said as RAW began.
"Yes it was JR. A lot of things happened last nite. Including an incredible but brutal ladder match," King responded as Shane's music began. "But we'll get to that a little later. Right now we're setting up for action on what promises to be an eventful RAW!"
"Well lookie here! You're boyfriend is on!" Jeff teased. I focused my attention on Shane and his match against Sean O'Haire, blocking out Jeff's jokes. In the end, Sean was victorious, but that was okay cause I got to see my Shaney from the block!
"Well King, let's talk about the brutal ladder match that took place last nite and put two very talented superstars in the hospital. Let's take a look at what happened last nite," JR said as they went to a clip of the match. The whole time they replayed the match, sharp pains went through my stomach. I just couldn't watch it. I looked away for most of it until I heard that thunderous roar come from the crowd like I heard last nite. I looked up at the tv in time to see Jeff and I fly through the air and land with a painful thud, lying on the floor pretty much motionless. I watched as Chris grabbed the belts and as Matt and Lita stood over us with smug smiles on their faces.
"Hey bro! Guess who's back!!" Matt laughed. I watched as I slowly looked up at him and mouthed 'Matt?' before blacking out again. "I know you can't properly welcome Lita and I back because of your unfortunate twist of fate. But don't worry, we'll be back tomorrow nite! That's right! We're invading RAW tomorrow!" Matt threw down the mic and exited up the ramp with Lita wrapped in his arms tightly. Jeff and I were put on stretchers and carried to the trainer's room.
"Oh my God," Jeff and I said together.
"That was the most horrible thing I've ever seen," I said covering my mouth with my hand.
"That was, that was, hell I don't know what that was!" Jeff said.
"Scary Jeff. That was fuckin scary!" I exclaimed as the clip ended.
"Wow JR. Can you believe what the eldest Hardy brother did to his baby brother and his once Mfer?" King asked.
"And to add Lita into that mix. She was Angel's best friend and was like a sister to young Jeff. It was definitely a shock!" JR said.
"And now they have both invaded RAW! Who next?! Stone Cold Steve Austin's return?!" King joked.
"Well folks. To give you an update on what happened later last nite, Angel and Jeff were sent to the hospital where Angel woke up shortly after she arrived there, but Jeff was out for most of the nite. Both received major concussions. Angel had a dislocated shoulder and bruised ribs. Jeff received a broken rib. We just got word that they were released from the hospital this morning and sent home. So, if you're watching, we wish you two a fast recovery!" JR said.
"JR it sounds like Terri is with the people that caused this to happen. Let's go to her," King said.
"That's right King. I'm standing here with Matt Hardy and Lita. Now, what caused you to do that to your brother and best friend?" she asked curiously. Matt's mouth formed an evil grin as Lita stood next to him with a blank look on her face.
"Well Terri, it's like this. If my brother Jeff had just a little bit more Mattitude then he wouldn't have suffered such an unfortunate twist of fate. As for Angel, well, that was revenge for leaving me like she did to come to RAW with her then boyfriend the Hurricane. If she had stayed with me, I know she would have been my number one Mfer," he replied.
"But Matt, you sent them to the hospital for what you did. Aren't you sorry just a little bit?"
"Not at all! They deserved it. They should have been practicing some Mattitude, Terri. Now they'll know better!" Matt said as RVD and Jericho walked up to them.
"Matt, thanks for the help last nite man," Rob said holding out his hand to Matt. Matt just looked at it and smugly nodded it off.
"I didn't help you guys. I helped myself! This was all to tell people that they should all practice Mattitude!" Matt said.
"Whatever man. All I know is that you two were the reason we won last nite!" Rob said as Jericho patted the belt that hung off his shoulder.
"Yeah, even though we could have done it without your help! We had them right where we wanted them," Jericho said egotistically.
"Anyways, we just wanted to welcome you and Lita back to RAW," Rob said as he and Jericho walked off. Matt smiled before putting his arm around Lita and leading her off.
"Can you believe how bad of a heel Matt is?!" I said.
"He's a good heel Case," Jeff responded.
"Yeah, I meant bad as in evil. Not bad as in not good," I said as he laughed.
"Just think, I get to spend my time sorting out your sentences!" Jeff laughed.
"What's that supposed to mean?!" I asked slightly offended.
"You just say simple things in complex ways. That's all," he said.
"UGH! Whateva," I said.
"Oh don't get started on that word! I said that to Matt the other day and he called me on it!"
"Well, excuse me!" I said.
"Your accent is really starting to rub off on some of us. Like me and Amy," Jeff laughed.
"Well, have you listened to me lately?! I sound as if I should be on He Ha!" I laughed.
"What's that supposed to mean? You raggin on our accents?!"
"No, not at all. They're great if you're a Tennessee livin, cousin lovin, redneck, hick!"
"Oh no you didn't! Most women happen to love our accents!" Jeff argued playfully.
"Whose most women? The only people I can think of that would love your accents are the same Tennessee livin, cousin lovin, redneck, hicks!" I laughed.
"If it wouldn't cause me pain, I'd kick your ass right now!" Jeff yelled.
"Sucks to be you then don't it!" I said as tears started streaming down my face from laughter.
"Just wait until I get all healed up! Then your ass is grass!" Jeff laughed. I rolled my eyes and rested my head on his chest. "Do you honestly not like our accent?"
"No, I'm playin wittcha. I think they're adorable! I mean look who I'm goin out with. Shane must have the thickest southern accent ever!" I laughed.
"He does have a thick accent, doesn't he?" Jeff laughed as I nodded. We sighed together as we finished watching RAW. I didn't stay awake long enough to talk to Shane on the phone. The events of the past couple of days just wore me out. But I knew he would understand. Jeff and I just slept together in each other's arms like we had in the hospital the nite before.
"Thank you for watching over me." My blue gray eyes connected with his bright green ones. He smiled through his pain and touched my bruised cheek lightly.
"You're awake," I smiled happily.
"Yeah, I am."
"It's about time! We were all worried about you!"
"I love you Case," he blurted out.
"I know. Me too," I said as he kissed the top of my head. "How are you feeling?"
"Well, aside from this massive concussion and my broken rib, I would say I'm doin pretty damn well," he laughed hurting himself.
"Yeah, I know the feeling. I'd like to introduce you to my dislocated arm," I said pointing to my arm that hung in a sling.
"BRO!! You're up!" Matt ran into the room and hugged Jeff carefully. Amy, Shane, Adam, Chris, and Mark followed.
"Yeah, thanks to Case," Jeff answered smiling down at me.
"How are you doing Angel?" Shane asked taking my hand in his and placing a soft kiss on my forehead.
"Alright, I suppose," I replied as Mark walked over to me.
"Darlin, Vince wanted me to tell you both to get better, but also that you'll have the time off to get better. You and Jeff will be leaving tonite for home," Mark explained.

"Yeah, kiddo, you do," Adam smiled. I looked at Shane and kissed him softly.

"Oh, about a month," Chris responded. "Your injuries are pretty bad."

"Wow, that's a lot of time away from you all," I said smiling slightly.

"Well Terri, it's like this. If my brother Jeff had just a little bit more Mattitude then he wouldn't have suffered such an unfortunate twist of fate. As for Angel, well, that was revenge for leaving me like she did to come to RAW with her then boyfriend the Hurricane. If she had stayed with me, I know she would have been my number one Mfer," he replied.
"But Matt, you sent them to the hospital for what you did. Aren't you sorry just a little bit?"
"Not at all! They deserved it. They should have been practicing some Mattitude, Terri. Now they'll know better!" Matt said as RVD and Jericho walked up to them.
"Matt, thanks for the help last nite man," Rob said holding out his hand to Matt. Matt just looked at it and smugly nodded it off.
"I didn't help you guys. I helped myself! This was all to tell people that they should all practice Mattitude!" Matt said.
"Whatever man. All I know is that you two were the reason we won last nite!" Rob said as Jericho patted the belt that hung off his shoulder.
"Yeah, even though we could have done it without your help! We had them right where we wanted them," Jericho said egotistically.
"Anyways, we just wanted to welcome you and Lita back to RAW," Rob said as he and Jericho walked off. Matt smiled before putting his arm around Lita and leading her off.
"Can you believe how bad of a heel Matt is?!" I said.
"He's a good heel Case," Jeff responded.
"Yeah, I meant bad as in evil. Not bad as in not good," I said as he laughed.
"Just think, I get to spend my time sorting out your sentences!" Jeff laughed.
"What's that supposed to mean?!" I asked slightly offended.
"You just say simple things in complex ways. That's all," he said.
"UGH! Whateva," I said.
"Oh don't get started on that word! I said that to Matt the other day and he called me on it!"
"Well, excuse me!" I said.
"Your accent is really starting to rub off on some of us. Like me and Amy," Jeff laughed.
"Well, have you listened to me lately?! I sound as if I should be on He Ha!" I laughed.
"What's that supposed to mean? You raggin on our accents?!"
"No, not at all. They're great if you're a Tennessee livin, cousin lovin, redneck, hick!"
"Oh no you didn't! Most women happen to love our accents!" Jeff argued playfully.
"Whose most women? The only people I can think of that would love your accents are the same Tennessee livin, cousin lovin, redneck, hicks!" I laughed.
"If it wouldn't cause me pain, I'd kick your ass right now!" Jeff yelled.
"Sucks to be you then don't it!" I said as tears started streaming down my face from laughter.
"Just wait until I get all healed up! Then your ass is grass!" Jeff laughed. I rolled my eyes and rested my head on his chest. "Do you honestly not like our accent?"
"No, I'm playin wittcha. I think they're adorable! I mean look who I'm goin out with. Shane must have the thickest southern accent ever!" I laughed.
"He does have a thick accent, doesn't he?" Jeff laughed as I nodded. We sighed together as we finished watching RAW. I didn't stay awake long enough to talk to Shane on the phone. The events of the past couple of days just wore me out. But I knew he would understand. Jeff and I just slept together in each other's arms like we had in the hospital the nite before.
