Summary: Amy is distraught upon receiving a call learning of her husband, Matt Hardy's death. When a new man senses her sorrow and steps in to save her, will it be to late? Or can she find real lasting love again?
A/N: All I have to say here is thank you, which in a few more chapters I can get the chance to say properly, and also I wanted to let you all in on the fact that this story will be wrapping in the next 5 chapters, so that I may start posting the next one which has already undergone production of a first chapter. There will also be two more song chapters in this saga so bear with me when they come. I seem to have a ton of obscure love songs I want you all to know because they fit the story. When you listen to all kinds of music I suppose that is supposed to happen huh? LOL Also, sorry about killing Jeff off, but I thought since he was a fallen angel, he could do better helping out people from above. If you want to see him though, I suggest getting together with me for a road trip to Carolina I'm always up for that. LOL
He stood outside the door to the hospital room, fear and anger running through his veins at an unstoppable pace. He knew that the two people behind this nightmare were now lying dead in the morgue, but it didn't make him feel any better. They had tried and almost succeeded at killing the only woman he had actually loved. There was also a third body lying cold in the morgue now, and it had been a senseless killing, a senseless death by any means. Jeff had been the target and as much as he wished it weren't true, they had succeeded in their goal of killing him.
"They didn't kill me Chris; I killed myself for the better good."
It was the voice, but it wasn't the voice he had heard for the last few weeks, it was a new voice, a softer more gentle voice. A voice that could only belong to one man, that man being Jeffrey Nero Hardy. Was it possible that he was in the same place as Matt?
"Why did you kill yourself Jeff?"
"I did it to save the woman that you love Chris. I had no other choice but pull her out for the medical people to get to her. I couldn't let your love for her die like my brother had."
Chris was almost taken aback by the words that Jeff was telling him now. He had thought the medical personnel had walked into that fire and brought her out of it. The entire time it had been Jeff, the target, a real friend that had made things right. Matt might have healed his wound, but Jeff had healed his wounded heart.
"Thank you Jeff, I just hope that she pulls through."
"My effort wasn't for nothing Chris. I have done what was needed and now she lies awake in the hospital room, waiting for you to meet her on the other side of the door."
Amy was awake and alive? Could Jeff be telling him the truth and know something that he didn't?
"I need to find out what the hell happened out there before I can go to her Jeff."
"I know that, and I have told her as much. She will be waiting for you when you are ready."
As much as he wanted to admit he was ready now, he knew that what Jeff had just said was right. He couldn't walk into that room now and have things be the way they were four years ago. He had to talk to Mark, sort his heart and mind out, and then he could give himself back to her the way she needed him too.
"Tell Matt thank you, and have a peaceful existence."
"I will once I have a little bit of heavenly fun with our friend Jeff Jarrett. Mark is eagerly awaiting you Chris, I think it is time."
Pushing the door open and taking one last look into the empty hallway, he took a breath and walked in. It was now time to sort all of this mess out and figure out why Jeff had mentioned Jarrett.
"I love him you know."
"I know Ames, you always have."
"So what happens to you now? I mean you have aided us in getting rid of the evil that stalked us, so what do you do now?"
"I join my brother in paradise my pet. I was sent to watch you and aid you in the direction of Chris, and now that I have, I want to be with my family."
"I was your family at one point wasn't I Matt?"
"Yes you were, and in my heart you always will be, but you are no longer mine to have and to hold. I will never stop loving you Amy Dumas, but I will find it in my heart to be there for you and your new husband."
"Chris and I aren't married Matt, you don't need to worry about that. I don't even know if he feels the same."
"Open your mind and your heart Amy and then ask yourself again how Chris feels. You fought your injuries and came back. What do you think you came back for?"
She thought about it for a minute, her mind a maze of words said and spoken before and after the accident and she realized what Matt meant.
"He declared his love for me before I came here. I wasn't awake but for some reason my heart can remember it happening."
"Then you have your answer. Be well Ames, I will never forget you."
He was gone then and she knew it. She might not be able to see her husband, but he was gone. He left her something before he had vanished from the room and as she looked at the piece of paper lying in front of her on the bed, she knew what he had given her.
Matt Hardy had given her something that would help her move on quickly, to let her heart be free of him. Matt Hardy had left his death certificate behind.
"I wondered how long your blonde ass was going to stand outside that door. Thanks for coming to see me."
Chris smiled weakly and looked at his wounded friend in the bed. There had been so much damage as a result of the war and standing there and looking at Mark now, he looked like he had finished fighting a war and as badly as he was injured, he looked like gold.
"I don't know if they told you but Jeff died in the explosion."
"I know he was the one that told me actually. He saved Amy and me and then he let himself be taken to the other side."
"What happened in there Mark?"
"Kevin and AJ were working for someone. Jeff Jarrett spent a lot of money to get Jeff to come over there when his heart was with the WWE. I guess when Jeff starting showing up late, Jarrett knew he was going to lose out with Vince again and he just took it a little too far."
Chris laughed then, a loud one that seemed to echo through the room. So if it was Jarrett that wanted Jeff dead then he was going to get the shock of his life when Jeff used the heavenly power he was talking about. He breathed a sigh of relief then, knowing that he wouldn't have to go after Jarrett himself, and he looked up at Mark again, the smile slow to fade off his face.
"He told you he was going to rain heaven down on Jarrett didn't he? Is that what you are laughing at?"
"So you know all about it too? I never figured Jeff for a man that would do anything evil, but whatever he does to Jarrett will equal the hell that man put through all of us. He even got two good men who made a wrong decision killed. I hope Jeff fries him." Chris said, realizing at that moment that his hands were wrapped into a tight fist.
"Knowing how spiteful Matt could be, I think it might be a Hardy trait. I wouldn't think it would be pretty."
"I hope not."
The door to the room opened then, and a pretty nurse came in to add a new bag to the IV. Following close behind was Sarah, Mark's wife and their little girl.
"Well it seems this room is getting full now. Mark, I will talk to you later."
Mark looked up and it looked like his eyes were shining with pride and love. He was really a man that valued his family and friends and it seemed that now Chris was a part of that small family. His heart seemed to be getting fuller by the second.
"Give Amy my best."
Nodding his head he headed out of the room and straight for Amy's room. It was now time to confess all and hope that she would love him back this time. He loved her more then any living thing on earth, and although he let her get away four years ago, he wasn't so quick to give up now.
