A/N: I know that this is a short post, but it's leading up to the next part in the story, so bear with me. The next post will be (hopefully) a lot longer.

R&R guys, and look out for some of the short fics I've been writing lately (when I post them).

Samantha

"How have you been?" Matt asked her as they walked out towards the parking lot.

"I think I've just been trying to hold it all together, stay strong for my baby, and for Rey, and Trish, and Jeff and everyone." She answered, glad that he was there with her.

"I wanted to be closer to you, to help out, but I didn't know whether or not you wanted me there, or if you wanted some space. From the way Jeff was acting I thought you might be feeling suffocated." He told her. "I didn't want to make you feel boxed in with nowhere to run and hide."

"I know that this will sound strange, but thank you for doing that. Ever since Evolution... took me I've been trying to put my life back together, make a good life for my baby, and just trying to stand up on my own feet, and be in control of me again. Thank you for staying away."

"That does sound strange." Matt told her.

"But I am glad to see you again, and to be able to hang out with you. I've missed that a lot over time."

"And I missed you." Matt stopped. "I know it might be hard for us both, but I want us to be friends at least. Maybe when you're ready, if you want to, we can try again."

She smiled. "How does that song go? Heads we win, tails we'll try again. It sounds good, Matt. But I still need to get my life under control. Let me work out what I want, and what I need, then you'll be the first person to know."

"I can wait for that." He told her, a gentle smile on his face.

In the parking lot, Lita led him over to a late model 4x4.

"Where's Rey and the baby?" Matt asked her, looking around.

"They'll already be home. We each took separate cars tonight in case one of us needed to leave in a hurry, or he needed to provide a decoy so that Zane and I could get away safely."

"Zane?"

"My son's name." Lita told him. "People don't use it much. I didn't want Evolution to find it out in case they tried to come after him."

"Luchadora? Is that you?" Rey called from the lounge room as Lita opened the front door.

"Yeah, it's just me Rey." She answered, ushering Matt inside. "Is everything okay?" She walked into the lounge room with Matt in tow.

"Our little luchador is just fine." He reassured her, cradling Zane against his chest and looking up at Matt. "How are you Matt?"

"Not bad." He answered, watching as Lita took the baby from Rey's arms. "You know, he's pretty cute. Everyone was saying how much he looks like you."

She smiled. "I think he's the one good thing that's happened to me in the last year or more." Lita cooed softly to her son, then looked back up at her ex-boyfriend. "Would you like to hold him?"

"Am I seeing things, or did Lita just leave here with Matt Hardy?" Hunter asked aloud.

"If he..." The Undertaker turned to Jeff.

"If he hurts her again, I'll be the first one to smack him in the face." Jeff told him. "Hopefully with a ladder. He hates that."

"If he makes her happy, let her go." Trish told them. "God knows she could use someone to love her."

"We all love her." Christian told her.

"But do you love her in the way Matt does, or can?" She asked softly.
