Chapter 4

It was about four hours later before Matt and Amy pulled into Jeff's driveway.

"Hey Matt...whose car is that?" Amy asked curiously when they saw the lime green VW beetle.

"Holy shit..." Matt said when he remembered whom Jeff had bought a car just like that for.

"No...It can't be." Amy said and was shocked when they saw the license plate that read "LUV831J"

"What the hell is she doing here?" Matt said as he parked the car and got out of it, following an enraged Amy into the house. He didn't even bother to stop her as she began pounding on the door.

........................... Jeff held his pounding head groggily in his hands as he sat up from the bed. It took a few minutes for him to realize that the pounding was coming from the door and not from his head. Beth turned over as Jeff stood up from the bed unsteadily and headed for the door. Slyly she wrapped a sheet around her naked form and smiled as Jeff opened the door butt naked. She smirked when she heard Amy and Matt's outraged voices.

"Holy shit Jeff!" Amy yelled as she turned into Matt's arms when she realized he was naked.

"Jeff...for fucks sake would you get some clothes on!"

"What?" Jeff looked down dazedly and then realized he had no clothes on. "Oh shit!"

"Jeff, who's out there?" Beth called out, then walked to the door with the sheet clinging to her body. Jeff's mouth dropped open when he surveyed the situation. He looked at the clothes strewn everywhere then his eyes rested on a barely covered Beth.

"Fuck."

"You bitch...what are you doing here?" Amy yelled.

"Aims calm down." Matt said trying to make some sense out of the situation.

"Fuck." Jeff said again. They all looked up when the shrill ring of the phone shocked them all. Beth who was the closest to the phone and the least upset by the situation picked it up.

"Hello?" She answered.

"Hello?" Corinne asked in shock when she heard a woman's voice.

"I'm sorry, I was trying to reach...ummm sorry I must have the wrong number."

"Jeff Hardy? Oh no...he's right here. Hang on a sec...oh by the way who is this?"

"Umm...tell him its Corinne." She said shakily.

"Jeff, it's Corinne." Beth said.

"Shit!" Jeff said stupidly then ran to get the phone.

"Hello? Corinne?" He said.

"Jeff? Who was that?"

"Uh...that was...that was...ummm...that was..." Jeff said nervously.

"Jeff...what's wrong with you? It's me...Beth remember?" Beth said innocently as she flopped down on the couch.

"Beth?" Corinne said, realizing who was at his house, picking up the phone at this time in the morning.

"Uh...Corinne listen to..." Jeff began.

"Right. Well that was quick...Bye Jeff." Corinne said sadly. She put the phone down and slammed the picture she had been holding into an empty drawer.

"Wait...Corinne! Corinne...FUCK!" Jeff yelled into the phone when he heard the dull sound of the dial tone.

"You are a fucking asshole Jeff." Amy yelled as she turned around and stormed back to the car. Matt looked at her quickly retreating back, then at Beth who was holding the sheet up trying her damnedest to look innocent, and then at his brother who was once again holding his head in his hands.

"Um...I'll talk to you later Jeff." He said, then followed Amy. The door closed dully, leaving Jeff and Beth alone again.

"Jeff...I'm..." Beth began.

"Beth get the hell out of here." Jeff rasped out.

"But Jeff...I'm so sorry, I didn't realize..."

"Bullshit...how the hell did you end up down here? You were supposed to be sleeping in my bed upstairs."

"I know Jeff...I came down to see if you were okay and I just...we lost control..."

"We lost control? I was drunk...you took advantage of me."

"How the hell would you know? You were drunk. How do you know you didn't take advantage of me?" Beth huffed unable to comprehend that Jeff didn't believe her.

"Because I know that there was no way in hell I would have been willing to touch you without you in someway instigating it first. Hell I thought you were Corinne...shit..." Jeff said when he realized that while he had been dreaming the night before of having Corinne with him, he had ended up making love...no...having sex with Beth while imagining she was Corinne.

"Fuck...you know what last night meant nothing...get the hell out of here." Jeff said angrily.

"Fine...fuck you too Jeff...oh wait...I just did." Beth laughed as a loud growl emanated from Jeff. She walked upstairs knowing that she had succeeded what she had set out to do.

"Oh God...what the hell am I going to do?" Jeff thought to himself. He tried to calm down and tried to tell himself that there was a way he could explain to Corinne what had happened, after all she had called him for a reason. He felt his heart sinking when he realized that Amy was pissed off at him and there was no way in hell he could make Corinne believe him if Amy didn't at first. He grabbed his phone and dialed Amy's cell phone number.

"Hello?" Matt said.

"Matt...give the phone to Amy."

"I don't think that's a good idea Jeff." Matt said trying to concentrate on the road while trying to talk to Jeff.

"Wait a minute I'm pulling over...okay no I won't..." he said when Amy held out her hand for the phone.

"Jeff I have nothing to say to you...don't you dare try to talk me into getting Corinne to come back to you cause any chance of that happening just died." She said angrily.

"Amy I was so drunk last night I thought Beth was...Get the fuck out of here Beth," He said when he saw her approaching him.

"What? No goodbye kiss?"

"Go!" Jeff yelled, "Amy you have to believe me..."

"Jeff no! I don't care if you had a gun held to your head, you should have never slept with her. For one thing she should never have been inside your house in the first place...you know what I'm not dealing with this right now, I'm supposed to be happy right now and I'm not thanks to you."

"What are you talking about?" Jeff asked cantankerously

"I just got engaged to your brother. Bye Jeff." She said hanging up the phone.

"I'm sorry Matt." She said regretfully as she glanced at him worriedly. She knew how intensely loyal Matt was to Jeff.

"What for?" He said softly, not taking his eyes off the road.

"I know how Jeff and you are..."

"Aims...I know that I may seem blindly loyal to my brother...but I'm not so blind as to not realize that he has just about made the biggest mistake of his life. I also know where you are coming from to see one of your best friends barely ex boyfriend sleeping with another girl. If it's all the same to you though, I'd prefer not to take sides with this alright Aims?" He said honestly.

"Okay...by the way I love you and even though I may not seem it right now, I am really really happy..." She said grasping his right hand and pressing a kiss on his palm before holding it to her cheek.

"I love you too. And I'm sorry that you had to see that today of all days."

"I just...I don't know what I'm going to tell Corinne..." Amy said worriedly.
