"Do you mind if I come in?" Trish asked quietly as she opened the door to the room. The last thing she wanted was to see him all beaten and then bother him on top of it.
"Yeah of course. I mean I did tell you to stay here with me didn't I?"
"You did, but I didn't know that it would be alright. I thought I better check to be sure."
"No matter what our relationship now Trish, you are always welcome in my hospital room. Hell for that matter, any room that I happen to be in."
"Always the charmer aren't you? Even when you're beaten to hell."
Jeff threw her a questioning look. He would have assumed she would have stayed around and asked the doctor about his condition.
"You mean you don't know how I am?"
"No, I figured that when you wanted to have me come in to see you, that you could tell me. I mean I am not your girlfriend anymore Jeff, and because of that it isn't my place to just start acting like I am."
"Good point."
"So how are you anyway?"
"The doctor says that I might be in here for a few days and I might need time at home to relax a little bit as well, because most of the force was too my head, neck and spine. He told me that I should really think about getting a nurse and staying as far away from the ring as I can right now."
"So you can't wrestle? How long are you going to be out for?"
"About three months at the most he said, from the way my spine looked when he did x rays on it."
"But that's a lot of time. What the hell does he expect you to do?"
Jeff threw her a smile and watched her face turn from that of non caring to one of utter concern. That was the thing he remembered most about his time with Trish, that no matter what happened she was always there and to his defence when it was his job on the line. She understood what it was like to be forced out of the ring due to injury.
"Probably the same darn thing I did when I was off for my own idiocy I would assume. Trish, it's not his job to care about what I am doing once I am out of his care."
"What are you saying?"
"I'm saying that I am going to spend the time I need to here, but then when the time comes for me to get out of this cell, then I fully intend to come back to the ring and find out who the hell did this to me."
"I think I might know who did it Jeff. I'm not sure but there is only one person that seems to want you out of my life right now. I hate to think it would be this person, but there isn't anyone else."
"Who Trish? Who would set me up to go out there and save you, and then take me down?"
"Didn't you hear me? I said you had better explain what the hell is going on here right now!" Kurt said, pushing John down to where he was sitting before, and throwing a look of complete disgust in Torrie's direction.
"It wasn't what you thought. She came on to me man that's it. Tell me that you haven't once slipped when a female fan comes on to you."
"Actually John, I have what most people look at as a damn happy marriage, and I wouldn't even think about it. I thought that was what you had with Trish as well. I guess I was wrong and so was she."
"It wasn't intentional man, can't you see. She came back here to turn me on and get me in shit. She probably knew you were coming to get me and planned the whole damn thing."
Kurt listened to what John was telling him and suddenly turned toward Torrie. He had told her some pretty important information earlier, and had thought for a split second he could trust her. But there might be a slight chance that he couldn't. He had to face that John might be right.
"Well Torrie, what's the story here, and I want the truth."
"I came out here to find John. I had seen Trish and him here earlier and thought he might just have come back here to be with her. I found him alone. I told him I knew about him and Trish, which I am sorry about, and then well one thing led to another and we kissed."
"Is that how it happened John?" Kurt yelled looking back at his friend.
"Not exactly, but close enough. I find it odd that you're all pissed off at me when in actual fact we trusted you not to tell anyone about Trish and I and you did just that."
"Yeah I did, and I know I did something wrong, but damn man, I didn't come out here when my girlfriend is off with her ex and just kiss someone else."
John thought about what Kurt was saying and knew that it made total sense. He should have been already on his way to the hospital and checking in to make sure that Hardy wasn't using this incident to his advantage. But instead, he was caught red handed with someone that he shouldn't have even been close too.
"She's with Jeff then?"
"Yeah she is, and man it didn't look all that good when they left here alright. Jeff was taken out pretty bad and I have to wonder if maybe you didn't set him up for the fall tonight."
"You really think I did it?"
"I do, and unless you tell me right now that you didn't want that to happen and that you had nothing to do with it, then I am going to take what I think happened and go right to Vince and Stephanie and also take it to Trish. Along with what I know now, this is pretty damaging stuff John."
"Who do you think did it Trish?" Jeff repeating, knowing who she was thinking of but wanting to be sure that it wasn't someone else.
"I think it was John damn it. Are you happy now? I think that John's hatred for you and what we had a long time ago. I think it made him lose it and he hit you."
"Are you so sure it was John?" Jeff asked.
"No, I don't have a clue but for Christ's sake Jeff, who the hell else could want to do this to you as soon as you come back?"
"I don't know, but for once, I want to think about it logically before I go around throwing things down and making people think it was someone who it wasn't."
"So you think it could be someone other then John?"
"I do, and I think you need to get the hell out of here now and go find John. When you told me that you didn't want me anymore, it hurt and I wanted to fight for you just as much as John did."
"But now?"
"But now I see the conviction in your eyes when you have to even think that he had something to do with it, and I respect it. I love you, and I will always be there for you and take you back when the time does come, but I won't sit there and stand in your way anymore."
"Are you kicking me out Jeff Hardy?"
As the bright smile came across her face and lit up his room, Jeff couldn't help but smile and chuckle with her. Here he was giving away the girl of his dreams, the girl that he wanted to fight forever for, to the guy that might have taken him out, and he was smiling.
"Yeah, as a matter of fact doll face, I am. Now get out of here before I have to act like I want to throw you out. Just do me one favour in between all the kissing and hugging and reuniting would ya?"
"Anything."
"Find out who really did do this to me and who I need to get revenge on when I get back would ya?"
"Sure, and do me a favour and get better for me would you?"
"Will do. Goodbye Trish."
