Disclaimer and AN: Don't own em other than Becky, I don't know if I mentioned that they are back in the US.
That morning the RAW roster got a 3 day vacation. Becky and Taker decided to go back to Kentucky where Becky lived so they could relax and so she could visit her family and friends. Becky was thankful because she needed some time to think about the ever present dreams she was having and what they meant, also she needed a rest. All Becky knew was she needed to go to her thinking spot and sort everything out. Growing up Becky lived on a large farm, equipped with cows, chickens the whole nine yards! There was a spot deep in the woods, her spot was surrounded by a small creek and tall green grass, standing in the middle of a field was a tall lone oak tree. The low hanging branches were wide, perfect for sitting on, and the inside was almost hallow. That was were Becky went when something was bothering her ever since she could remember, it seemed to calm her soul and ease her mind. Going to that spot was on her mind ever since she left for the UK.
Once they landed in North Carolina everyone promised after their vacation, they were going to get back together and go to dinner. Thankfully it was summer so Becky had the treat of riding on the back of Taker's bike all the way to Kentucky. It wasn't as bad as Becky thought it would be, the free feeling she got from the wind blowing in her face was exhilarating Many hours later they arrived at Becky's farm in Kentucky. Carefully Becky climbed off the bike and stretched her cramped legs.
"Next time, we take a plane or drive." Becky joked. Taker chuckled and climbed off the bike as well, then took a good look around. The wide fields framed by the green forest contrasted greatly to his home state of Texas.
"I love your home baby girl." Taker said hugging Becky from behind.
"Thanks, I've lived here all my life right over there in that white house," She pointed across one of the fields to a small house, "and when I was able to I build my own home I built it here. I have a close connection here." Taker could see the love for her home shining in her brown eyes. "Now if you don't mind Im sure you wanted to figure out what that noise on your bike was, feel free to use whatever you need in my garage, Im going to my spot. Im takin my cell with me so call if ya need anything." Taker kissed her on her cheek then pushed his bike to the inside of the garage. Becky sighed and went inside her home and set her backpack by the door only pausing to grab her Catherine Anderson book and her cell phone. It wasn't a far walk to her thinking tree, the trip was the best part, crossing the shallow creek, walking the field filled with tall grass, and talking to the cows that were eating there. Finally she arrived, it was exactly like she remembered it. Sighing continently she climbed up on one of the lower hanging branches and leaned back on the thick tree trunk, she opened up her newest romance novel and started reading. She hadn't even gotten 3 words read when her cell phone rang, already she was regretting taking it. Looking at the caller ID she saw it was Taker's cell.
"Why would he call me already?" Becky asked herself sitting up, "Hello?"
"Hey babe, I've got bad news. Vince just called and I have to leave for a autograph signing in Alabama." Becky's face fell in sadness.
"Awww, but we were supposed to be on vacation!"
"I know baby girl, but I've gotta do this. I've gotta be there in the morning so Im gonna leave now." Becky sighed deeply and said,
"All right, I'll see ya in 2 days."
"Bye baby girl."
"Bye babe." Becky hung up and leaned against the tree once again. She closed her eyes and listened to the birds singing, the creek flowing and the cows munching on their grass, it was music to her ears. Once again her solitude was broken by the annoying ring of her phone. This time it was Matt. Becky smiled wide and answered.
"Hey Mattitude!!!" She greeted.
"Hey! What's goin on?"
"Oh nuttin much tryin to get a little readin done."
"Whatcha readin?" He asked.
"A great romance novel called 'Phantom Waltz'."
"You actually read those cheesy things?" Matt asked.
"It's not cheesy! If more men read more of them then they would learn a few things about romancin a woman!" Matt just scoffed, "Anyway, what are you doin?"
"Nuttin much just bein bored out of my gord!!" Becky then got an idea.
"Why don't you come up here for your break!"
"Naw, besides I don't wanna intrude on you and Taker."
"You wont be, Vince called him up and now he's on his way to Alabama to do a autograph session so I'll be here all by myself." Becky sounded a bit upset about the whole situation and she knew Matt would probably pick up on it.
"Well, if your sure."
"Hell yeah!!! I need someone to talk to and you know your more than welcome here anytime."
"All right, I should be there in about an hour or two." Matt sounded more up beat now.
"Okie dokie, see ya then, be careful!"
"Bye for now B!" Then Matt hung up, Becky was really excited about seeing Matt even thought it hadn't even been a day since she saw him last. Something inside her felt empty when they were away. Hopping out of her spot she went back to her house to clean up and make dinner.
Walking back to her house she heard something move in the bushes behind her, quickly she turned around and saw her orange cat, Pickle, leapt out at her feet.
"BABY!!" She shouted and picked up the purring cat. "I've missed you." She laughed carrying the cat into the house with her. Two hours later Becky gathered her purse and keys and drove her PT Cruiser to the Lexington airport. To her surprise Matt was waiting outside sitting on his luggage.
"Why didn't you call me and tell me you were here you big duh!" Becky said through her rolled down window, when Matt got in she punched him in the arm.
"Hey! What was that for?" He asked rubbing his sore arm.
"For not callin me you igit!!!" As they drove home Becky caught Matt staring at her on more than one occasion.
"Do I have somethin on my face?" She asked pulling into her gravel driveway.
"No."
"Then what's wrong?" Becky asked getting out of her car.
"Nothin, this sure is a nice spread ya got here." Matt said in his best country accent. Becky knew he was avoiding her question but she didn't press the issue just yet.
"Come on Tex, let's get your shit inside then I wanna show ya somethin." Becky helped Matt take his things inside then immediately took him to her tree. If anyone would appreciate the simplicity and beauty of her tree, Matt would be it. All the way there she felt Matt's eyes on her at all times, it was starting to get on her nerves. Once they got there she extended her hands out and said. "TA-DA!"
"Wow, I've never seen a tree like this before." He was in awe as he slowly ran is hand across the smooth wood.
"Yeah, they don't have trees like this in North Carolina do they?" Becky climbed up on one of the branches and let her feet dangle. Matt just stared at the tree, like he was trying to see through it, now was the best time for Becky to ask Matt what was bothering him. "Matt, somethin's wrong, why wont you tell me?"
"Becky its nuttin ok so just drop it." He snipped.
"All right geeze, but I remember a certain someone getting really mad at me for hiding something from him once before, I thought that we had gotten past hiding things from each other. I guess I thought wrong." Becky hopped off her branch and stomped off towards the house. Before she got three feet Matt yanked her back against him, pressing her close to his body.
"You wanna know what's wrong? I'll tell ya what's wrong, for the past couple of weeks your all I've been able to think about. I can't sleep at night, I have trouble focusing on anything but you. After all those times I've helped you, held you in my arms when Taker wasn't there to help you, I feel like we should be together. Nothin against Taker, but I don't think he can love you like I know I can!" After Matt's mini speech, Becky had trouble breathing, he had feelings for her? She couldn't think, so she acted on impulse, pulling his face to hers and planting a large kiss on his mouth which shocked Matt in return. The strange thing about the kiss was while she was in the act her half yin yang tattoo started burning like it was on fire.
"Oh god." Becky gasped when she pulled away, quickly running back to her house. **I did NOT just kiss Matt Hardy! What am I supposed to do? What am I gonna tell Taker if he finds out??** Her mind shouted, causing a dull ache to start pulsing in between her eyes. This was a fine mess she had gotten herself into and she didn't know how in hell she was going to get out of it.
