A/N: Alright, I still have the writer's block bug. Sorry ya'll. I'm gonna try my best though. Man, I had to go to the hospital to see my grandmother. Not good for me. I felt weak the whole time I sat there. And I practically ran out of the damn place. And it doesn't make it any better that it's a Catholic hospital so you see all these crosses and shit all over the place. Religion isn't something I'm into. lol Good news though, I just watched my Yankees kick the Mets asses! 5-0, total shut out thanks to my Andy Pettitte! Gotta love that man! Mmmhmmm Dudes!! The new Harry Potter book is comin out!!! I'm all happy! I love that book. One of only a few books I can finish reading. So, depending on how long it takes me to read this book, I may not be writing for a bit. lol Anyways, here's the next chapter! Oh and to who ever asked, no that wasn't the last chapter and neither is this one. I'll let ya'll know when it's the last one and that won't be happenin for awhile from what I can see.

****************

A couple months had passed since that incident in the elevator. Shane and I hardly speak, except to discuss matches. It was rather difficult for me, but that's just the way it had to be. But with the bad comes the good. Jeff and I were closer than ever, if that was possible. And Randy and I were friends, saying hello to each other whenever we saw each other. Christmas and Thanksgiving had both passed and we were gearing up for Royal Rumble. It was the pay per view to joining belts together. Chris and Chris were having a match to decide who was going to be the Intercontinental champion because they're combining the US and IC belts together. And Mark and Paul were having a match to see who would end up being the Undisputed champion, I was personally pulling for Mark of course. Then there's the Tag Team Championship match. That was a little more difficult. RAW had three members to that championship, Shane, Jeff, and myself. Where as Smackdown only has two, Adam and John. It was early in the morning the day before the pay per view when I woke up, realizing that I didn't have Jeff's arms wrapped around me. Waking up with a start, I looked around and he wasn't there. I scrunched up my face and decided he probably was out with Shannon so I went back to sleep.

"Okay, we're all up at 7 in the morning for your little announcement Jeffrey, it better be good," Matt groaned as his room was crowded by close friends such as Shane, Shannon, Rob, and Chris. Amy sat on the bed wrapped in Matt's arms as Jeff faced everyone.

He took a deep breath and spoke. "I asked you all here for an announcement."

"Obviously. Would, you please get to it so I can get back to my sleep?" Chris whined.

"Yeah, and why isn't Case here?" Shane asked with a large yawn.

"I haven't told her and nor do I know how. I would also like you all to keep this hushed. I'll tell her on my own time."

"Jeff, what's goin on. This isn't like you to keep something from her," Amy said worriedly.

"I know. But I feel as though I have to this one time." Jeff shook his head nervously as he blurted out his news. "I'm quitting."

"Quitting what?" Shannon asked rubbing the back of his head.

"When the time comes for me to sign my contract again, I will not be doing so. I'm quitting the WWE to work on my music," Jeff sighed.

"Are you fuckin shitting me?!" Matt exclaimed angrily.

"No Matt. I have to quit. My body and mind just isn't in this anymore. I can't continue doing something I don't love anymore. Or love as much as I once did. Matt, I'm not like you. Wrestling isn't my life. It's not the only thing I'm interested in," Jeff tried to explain to his angry brother.

"And you haven't told Casey any of this?!" he yelled standing.

"No, I just can't yet."

"Jeff, she's gonna be devastated!"

"She'll have you guys!"

"She won't have you! You don't know how she was that short amount of time she was on Smackdown while you were on Raw. That killed her! She needs you Jeff. You are the only thing that's right in her life. You know that!" Matt yelled as he closed in on his little brother.

"Listen, I can't deal with this anymore. My body kills. What else am I supposed to do?! Wait it out until my fuckin body just dies on me?! Hell no!" Jeff yelled back.

"Do whatever the hell you want Jeff. You'll do it anyways," Matt growled storming out of the room, no doubt going down into the lobby for the continental breakfast.

"What do you guys think about this?" Jeff asked scratching his head.

"Jeff, it doesn't matter what we think. It's all up to you. We can't do anything about it," Amy shrugged as she followed after Matt.

"All I know is that you need to tell Case. And when you do, be prepared for the consequences. She does need you Jeff. You are her life. And I hope that she doesn't hate you for this," Shane said angrily as he left.

"Shannon?" Jeff asked with a sigh.

"Dude, I personally think you should have discussed this all with Casey first. I hope you can deal with the outcome," Shannon said patting Jeff's shoulder and leaving.

"So obviously I've just fucked up again, huh?" Jeff exclaimed throwing his hands down at his side.

"Well, it's not that I don't agree with what they're saying, but I also know where you're coming from," Chris said.

"I get how your body is killing you man. Really I do, but you definitely should have discussed this with Casey. She's definitely not gonna agree with this," Rob said as he and Chris left Jeff alone in the room.

*****************

"So this is how it's going to work. You and Gail are going to have an impromptu match tonite against each other for the Women's belt. In which you're going to lose it Case," Vince said as the he, Gail, and I sat in his office.

"So basically I'm going to belt less?" I asked.

"Yeah, sorry, we need to give some other people pushes. Don't worry, it's not like I'm going to push you to the back," he laughed as I sipped my Frap.

"I can't wait to finally get some gold! You hog it all up!" Gail laughed slapping my shoulder playfully.

"I'm trying to get some new story lines for you Case. So hopefully by WrestleMania, you'll have something new going on," Vince said as he took a seat behind his desk. "You two can go."

"Well, good luck tonite, Gail. You're gonna need it. I intend to make that whole 10 minutes the best possible." I nodded at her and walked down the hall, slipping my hand into the pocket on the front of my sweatshirt. I had a felt a sort of sadness all day, and couldn't figure out why. Something bad was gonna happen to me, but unfortunately, that's all I knew. I just hoped that Paul would be pulling out one of his tricks. But for some reason I knew better than that.

"Hey Case," Shane said stopping me in the hall.

"Hey," I replied giving him a half smile.

"How are you doing?"

"Fine, why?" I asked snottily.

"Because I know that this is gonna be really rough on you," he smiled placing a hand on my shoulder. "I know that we haven't been the closest of friends lately, but just know that I am here if you need me."

"What the hell are you talking about?" I exclaimed shrugging his hand off my shoulder.

His face fell as he shook his head and walked off. "Shane! Get your ass back here and tell me what's goin on!" I yelled to him as he quickly walked away.

"Casey, I need to talk to you," Jeff spoke to me as he pulled me into a deserted locker room. I reached up, trying to kiss him but he pushed me away.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I've decided to quit the WWE," he replied.

I burst out laughing, figuring it was all a joke. "That's a good one," I said.

"Case, it's not a joke. I'm being completely serious. When my contract comes up to be resigned, I'm not going to sign it."

"What the hell are you thinking?!" I yelled.

"You have to listen to me!" Jeff argued.

"No, you know what? I don't have to do anything. I can't believe this! You're leaving me!" I cried.

"No, Casey, I'm not. You don't understand!" he said as I ran out of the room. "Casey! Please get back here and listen to me!" he called after me but I just ran straight to the Diva's locker room.

"Trish, can I stay with you tonite?" I cried wiping tears off my cheeks.

"Yeah, why? Casey, what's wrong?" she asked curiously.

"I'm pissed off with Jeff. He just fuckin told me that he's quitting," I said sitting on the bench.

"Oh Jesus! He told you tonite?! What an asshole!" Trish yelled.

"You knew?!"

"Yeah, he told a bunch of us. He wasn't ready to tell you yet."

"Great, shouldn't he have discussed this all with me first?!"

"That's what we all said. I'm sorry," she said squeezing my shoulder gently.

"I hate him so much right now."

"You don't mean that."

"Yes, Trish, I do. I can't stand him. I'm glad I don't have to be with him tonite. Because I don't know how I can look at him right now. God! Out of all the stupid things he's done, this definitely takes the fuckin cake!"

"Don't worry about. Tonite you'll stay with me and it'll be like old times. And then tomorrow this whole thing will have blown over," Trish smiled.

What Trish had said gave me hope. But it didn't happen. I was still as pissed off with him the next day as I was before. It was to the point where I could barely look at him. Many times he tried to come up to me, but I shoved him away each time only to receive dirty looks by people who thought I should give a chance. Matt seemed to be the only one that was just as mad at him as I was. It was a good thing that I just had to walk out with him and Shane, especially since I wasn't on very good terms with either one at the moment, instead of having a match with the two of them.

"Trish, it can I share with you again tonite?" I asked as I walked through the locker room door after the match that the guys had lost.

"You know that I would love to have you, but I'm actually flying home right after the show to have my knee looked at. Sorry," she smiled.

"That's okay, thanks anyways," I replied shrugging my shoulders at her. "Do you happen to know someone I could stay with?"

"No, sorry," she said skipping out of the room with her cowboy hat in hand.

'Okay, so I can't stay with Shane, he's an asshole and because of Kim. I definitely don't want to stay with Jeff. John's probably sharing with that new chick from wardrobe,' I thought sorting out all my options as Nora came out from the showers. "Nora!"

"Um, yeah?" she asked sweetly with an almost nervous tone.

"Can I share a room with you tonite?" I asked hopefully.

"Sorry, I'm stayin with Trish," she answered shaking her head.

'Guess it's single nite,' I concluded as I gathered my gear and left the room.

"Case!" I stopped right before I hit the door out of the arena. I sighed and turned around slowly, as if I weighed 800 lbs.

"What Jeff?" I asked irritably.

"I know you're pissed at me, but I think you should listen to what I have to say about all this. You and Matt have like totally pushed me a side because of all this. You're both two of the most important people in my life. I hate it that I've pissed you guys off like this. Now Matt's heard my explanation, however you haven't. You never gave me a chance to explain myself," he said. "Where are you headed anyways?"

"To the hotel in hopes that they'll have a single room left," I replied placing my hand on the handle.

"Casey, please stay with me tonite. I got little to no sleep last nite because I didn't have you in my arms. Please baby. And then maybe you'll let me explain myself," he pleaded.

"Fine," I said in a huff. He smiled at me as he shouldered his bag and opened the door for me. I pushed him as I walked out the door. I waited for him so I could follow him to the car.

"First off, I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I didn't discuss this all with you first. But you have to understand that this was a hard decision for myself to make. Second, I don't have the heart for wrestling anymore. You more than anyone knows that. Third, and most importantly, my body just can't do this any longer. My back is continually killing me. My neck is always sore. I just can't handle it anymore and I need to quit before my body gives out on me for good. I've done so much stupid shit in the past that I wish I hadn't done. But I can't take that all back now, as much as I may wish I could. If I don't get out now, while I can walk, I may never be able to. Do you understand?" Jeff asked as we drove towards the hotel.

"Jeff, you have to look at this from my point of view. From day one you have always been there for me. I mean Matt and I were close, but from the moment you walked into that locker room, there was an instant spark. I can't bear to think that I'm going to lose you now!" I exclaimed.

"Casey, you're not losing me. I'm still going to love you and be your ever loving boyfriend. I'll just be at home watching you instead of here," he smiled.

"Jeff, to be honest with you, I don't know if I can handle that," I said softly.

"What do you mean by that?"

"I don't know if I can handle that kind of long distance relationship."

"Are you shitting me?!"

"No, I'm not Jeff."

"Casey, you are not breaking up with me! We've been through too much shit for this to all end like this!"

"I'm not saying that I'm breaking up with you right now."

"Right now?!"

"What I'm saying is that don't be surprised when I tell you in the future that this whole long distance thing sucks."

"I can't believe this. Casey, I'm going to be a phone call away. I'm going to be at home!"

"Except when your music career takes off and you're off touring. Then God only know where you'll be," I said looking over at him as we pulled into the hotel parking lot.

"Case, ya know, this sucks!"

"Yeah, tell me about it."

"I love you!"

"I know, and I love you too. But Jeff, you dropped a bomb on me! A large one! Nuclear sized!" I slammed the car door shut and grabbed my stuff before storming off ahead of him. Tonite I'd be spending the nite with Jeff, but I was most um-impressed about it.

***************

A/N: I apologize for this short chapter, but I was just don't have any thing to write at the moment. And now I've got Harry Potter to read, so God only knows when I'll update either stories at the moment. Sorry. I'll try my hardest to gather some inspiration.
