Chapter 14: Spring Break X

~Matt's POV~

Sam and I went into my room and found Jeff sitting on his bed, writing in his journal. Sam had told me what had happened between Paul, Jeff and her. I may not have understood the whole situation, but I knew that Jeff would be able to fix things especially when someone he loves is in an emotional situation. I looked at Sam, who was sitting on my bed, not looking at Jeff. We made eye contact and I could tell that she wanted to cry. "Jeff, what are you writing about?"

"Right now, I'm just writing down my feelings about a certain person that I care about and how she betrayed me," replied Jeff.

I looked at Sam and she had tears in her eyes. I could tell that Jeff and her were meant to be. Personally, I think that Paul and her kissed because there was so much confusion for her and she didn't know what to do. If there is one thing I know about Jeff it's that he knows how to fix problems that come up in his life. A knock interrupted my thoughts. "Sam, why don't you get the door? I need to pack up a few things," I replied as I got my things together.

"Sure, no problem. Who is it?"

"It's Andrew."



~Sam's POV~

I opened the door and allowed Andrew to come into the room. Andrew and I sat by the table and talked for a little bit. In a way, he could always tell if I was crying. He stroked my hand. It was his way that I could lean on him whenever I needed someone. I was pretty much an 'open book' person. A lot of the Superstars could read me like a book. Then out of nowhere, Jeff came up to me. I was wondering why he came up to me. He leaned down until we were nose to nose and said, "I'm sorry for how I behaved this morning. You don't deserve any pain right now. I'm just really sorry for what I did. Please forgive me. I love you so much. I really want us to try again. I know that you're confused and wasn't sure of what's been going on. I'm willing to put what happened behind us. I just want us to try a relationship. I really appreciate the fact that you were honest with me in the beginning." Then he gave me the softest kiss on my lips.

I had tears in my eyes and I looked into Jeff's eyes and knew that he was talking from the heart. I knew that deep down in my heart that I love Jeff and I want to stay with him. I decided right there and then about my relationship. "Jeff, I love you so much. I do forgive you. Please forgive me for what I did. I do want us to try again. Thank you so much for understanding," I replied as Jeff and I embraced.

"I do forgive you, angel," Jeff whispered in my ear.



~Matt's POV~

When I saw them embrace, I was thrilled because I knew that once Jeff had expressed his feelings, he changes and realizes what his problem is. He always tried to fix whatever problem comes his way. Jeff and Sam make the cutest couple. I'm sure that Paul would understand how much love they have for each other. I looked over to Drew and I could tell that he was happy for Jeff and Sam. Drew walked over to where I was standing. "Hey, man. You knew that they would go back to each other, didn't you?"

"Yeah, I knew that. They have a once in a lifetime true love between them. It's obvious, Drew that they belong together," I replied with a grin on my face.

"Why don't we leave and give them time alone?"

"Yeah, that's a good idea. Let's go," I responded. Then Drew and I left the room to give them privacy.



~Sam's POV~

Jeff and I just stayed in the room, just holding each other. Deep down in my heart, I knew that I couldn't love Paul the same way that I loved Jeff. I loved Paul as a father. I knew that I needed to face Paul at the arena, but I knew what to do when we got to the arena. I looked into Jeff's green eyes and knew that he truly loved me. For the first time, I became clear. I knew what to do and I felt happy too. Jeff leaned down and gave me a passionate kiss. He kissed me more tenderly and with more love. He broke off the kiss and I asked, "What's that for?"

"That's for forgiving me for hurting you like that. What's going to happen with you and Paul?"

"Well, I'm going to talk with Paul when we go to the arena. I realize that I love you so much and that you're the one that I want to be with. Paul is too much like a father to me. I still want him to be my father."

"Have I told you that I loved you lately?"

"No, you haven't."

"I love you, angel."

"I love you, too, Jeff." We stood there, holding each other without realizing that Matt and Andrew left.

Then Jeff had an idea, "How about dance?"

"Jeff, there's no music to dance to," I replied.

"We have music. It's in our hearts. There's music playing in our hearts. How about if I sing to you? Would that make you feel better?"

I grinned like an idiot, "Yeah, I would feel better if you did. But what you said was beautiful, Jeff. I love you." He sang to me as we danced.



Can this be true?

Tell me can this be real?

How can I put into words what I feel?

My life was complete

I thought I was whole

Then why do I feel like I'm losing control?

Never thought that love could feel like this

And you changed my world with just one kiss

How can this be that right here with me there's an angel?

It's a miracle

Your love is like a river

Peaceful and deep

Your soul is like a secret that I never could keep

When I look into your eyes

I know that it's true

God must have spent a little more time on you

In all creations

All things great and small

You are the one that surpasses them all

More precious than any diamond or pearl

They broke the mold when you came in this world

And I'm trying hard to figure out

Just how I ever did without

The warmth of your smile

The heart of a child

That's deep inside

Leaves me purified

Your love is like a river

Peaceful and deep

Your soul is like a secret that I never could keep

When I look into your eyes

I know that it's true

God must have spent a little more time on you

Never thought that love could feel like this

You changed my world with just one kiss

How can this be that right here with me there's an angel?

It's a miracle

Your love is like a river

Peaceful and deep

Your soul is like a secret that I never could keep

When I look into your eyes

I know that it's true

God must have spent a little more time on you

God must have spent a little more time on you



Jeff and I still danced even after he sang the song. It had taken the phone's annoying ringing to wake us out of our thoughts. Jeff went to answer the phone and cursed under his breath when he said that Matt was on the phone saying that we needed to go to the arena for practice. That was when we realized that we were actually alone for quite some time. We got our things together and headed for the arena for Raw Is War. We got the arena in 10 minutes and ran to where the practice ring was set up. Jeff came in hand in hand. For those who weren't there the other night but heard about it came to congratulate us. I looked for Paul after everyone resumed what they were doing before. I found Paul sitting in the about 7 rows back behind the announcers table. He looked like he was deep in his thoughts. "Paul, would it be possible that we can talk?"

"Yeah, sure. Let me guess, it's about us, right?"

"Yeah, it is, Paul."

"Look before you say anything, I just want to let you know that I do love you. And I don't want what happened between us to ever change," Paul replied.

"Paul, I understand what you're saying. I do love you, Paul. But there's something that you need to understand is that I need you as a father now. I will always cherish what we have together. The kisses between us taught me some things and it really helped me clear some issues that I have in my heart."

"Baby girl, I would be more than happy to be your father now. I'm sure that your father would be proud of you for handling the things the way you have. I cherish you with all my heart. But I do need to ask you to forgive me for what I did."

"Why? Paul, think of it this way. Because of the kisses, it helped our relationship become stronger. But if it helps you be less burdened, then yes I do forgive you, Paul."

"Thank you, baby girl. Now give me a big hug," replied Paul as he grinned. I jumped into his arms and squealed as he was tickling me."
