Matt fumbled around in the bed, immediately waking up when he heard what sounded like a phone ringing. He tried not to wake Lita up, deciding to let the phone ring until the other end hung up and groaned when he realized these people weren't giving up. He gently entangled himself from Lita, praying that she wouldn't wake up. He rummaged around in the dark and finally found the cell phone that was ringing. He sighed tiredly when he put the phone to his ear.
"Hello," he whispered tiredly. He quickly grabbed a pair of boxers and went to the bathroom.
"Um...Mr. Matt Hardy?" asked the voice and Matt frowned. 'Who is this? Why are they calling so late?'
"Yeah, this is him," he said, trying to rub the sleep out of his eyes. He wanted to know who the hell was calling him so late.
"This is the Pennsylvania Police department. We have some news we think you might want to hear," said the officer and again Matt frowned. 'Police department? Why would they...-' then it hit him.
Lucas.
"Sir?" asked the officer and Matt swallowed hard.
Maybe this was it. Maybe Lucas was found. But what if...what if Lucas was...no! He couldn't think like that. He knew it wasn't true. It couldn't be true.
"Mr. Hardy? Are you still there?" asked the officer again and Matt nodded even though the officer couldn't see him.
"Yeah, I'm here. My...my son, Lucas! Is...did you...was he found?" asked Matt anxiously. Could this be it? Could Lucas finally be found? He couldn't help the smile that made its way to his lips. 'Oh please, let him be found, alive.'
The officer stayed silent for a moment. He could almost see the smile that he knew was on this young man's face. It was so rare, and yet when it did happen, well he had always enjoyed making these sorts of calls.
"Mr. Hardy, I'm happy to tell you that your son, Lucas James Hardy was found alive and well 3 days ago," said the officer and Matt's eyes widened in joy.
Oh, God. He, he was found and....oh, God. He had to tell Lita! He quickly picked up the phone but realized the officer had hung up. 'He must've known I wanted to go,' thought Matt happily. He couldn't believe it; his dream was finally coming true!
Matt quickly walked out into the room and flipped the light switch on. Lita groaned a bit then slowly opened one eye. She turned towards Matt and frowned.
"Matt? Is everything okay?" she asked tiredly. 'What's so important that Matt has to wake me up? And at this hour!'
"They found him!" said Matt quickly, his grin widening. Tears of joy were down his face and he didn't care. Lita looked confused for a moment then her eyes widened in realization.
"Lucas? They found him!" she screamed and Matt walked over to her and placed his lips onto hers. She pulled back and looked him in the eye.
"Matt..." she asked, her hazel eyes sparkling with tears and Matt nodded. She squealed and threw her arms around Matt.
"They found him! We have to go! Where is he?! Oh my God, is he okay?" she asked, her words coming out at rapid speed.
Matt placed his hands on her lips and she swallowed. He...her son had been found! Her baby boy was back!
"Shh. We have to be quiet. The...the Arizona police called and...we're going to Arizona," he said simply and she nodded eagerly.
"Is he okay?" she asked and he nodded. God, this was the best night of their lives. He wanted to leave right now and just hop on a plane and see Lucas. God, this was the moment he had been waiting for, for so long. Now, it was finally there.
Lita nodded in agreement. They were finally going to get their son back!
