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: Fear not superhero fans, I am not upset that you didn't review. I believe you took me wrong with that last chapter. I was having a hard enough time getting in to post it, and then you guys couldn't review it. I get that, it is a trippy system, but none the less you have taken me over the mark of 100 I wanted to hit with this story much like the other one, and well I thank you for that. Never fear Hardy fans, I will pick you up all over the world, LOL and we shall go together to Carolina. Nah, it was a joke anyway, I can't afford that anymore, not with two men to feed already and a good chance another one on the way. Have girls!!! Never get an overabundance of testosterone in your home. I just wanted to let you all know that as much as I wanted to drag this sucker on more, I am going to end it in two chapters from this one, so look for that in two days, and the start of the next story that same day. The song used here is I Love The Way You Love Me by John Michael Montgomery.


I like the feel of your name on my lips
And I like the sound of your sweet gentle kiss
The way that your fingers run through my hair
And how your scent lingers even when your not there

The knock came then, startling her, making her throw down the certificate and wiping the last of the tears she would cry for her dead husband away. She knew who was on the other side of the door of course, and she also knew what it would mean once she let him in.

She would had to admit how she felt and about what she had done to him over four years ago. Now wasn't the time to relive the past, but with Chris and the way she had always felt about him there never would be a good time, so now was better then nothing.

Shifting herself in the bed, making sure she felt as comfortable for this conversation as she could, she motioned him through the glass pane to come into the room.

"I don't mean to bother you; I just wanted to see for myself that you were alright."

She smiled then, amazed that despite how he felt about her and what he had said to her, he was still acting as if he was there in a friendly capacity.

"As you can see there are no ill effects from the explosion or the gunshot. The doctor did tell me your story though when he came to check on me earlier."

"What story would that be?" Chris asked, wondering what she was talking about and if it was making any sense.

"He told me the story about how you were shot by the sniper like Mark said, but that you told him that you had an angel heal it so that you could get to me in time."

Chris blushed then, embarrassed that someone had told her how he was feeling about her before he had the chance to do it himself. He must have sounded like a lunatic to that doctor and to Amy now.

And I like the way your eyes dance when you laugh
and how you enjoy your two hour bath
and how you convinced me to dance in the rain
with everyone watching like we were insane

"Would this have something to do with our resident Angel Matt Hardy? Chris did he look at your wound and put me ahead of his own feelings and heal you?"

All Chris could do was nod then, afraid that he was in for another speech about how much she loved him and how perfect he was even as an angel now. That happened to be the last thing that he wanted to hear. "Yes he healed me."

"Well good, for once he did the right thing where someone else is concerned. Listen Chris, I know you think I am going to sit here and preach about how wonderful Matt was, and for the most part he was a great husband, but he wasn't the man that I was totally in love with. We fooled each other in thinking that we were."

"What are you saying here Amy?" Chris prodded, not sure what she was meaning by any of this. "Are you telling me that you and Matt married without sharing love?"

She smiled then, the grin widening her eyes and her face. "You did it didn't you? I mean you married your ex because you wanted to get back at me didn't you?"

But I love the way you love me
Strong and wild
Slow and easy
Heart and soul
so completely
I love the way you love me

Now it was Chris's turn to smile. As much as he didn't want to admit it, she had caught him red handed. He had married only because of what had happened so many years ago between the two of them. He had assumed then that if Amy could do it, he would do it even better then her. Thinking back now, he knew it was wrong. He should have taken her in his arms then and never let her go, not to Matt, not to anyone.

"So are you going to answer me?"

"I didn't marry for love no. I had the woman I would forever love, and she had chosen another man to enter her life. I wanted to be good enough but I guess no matter what I did, I couldn't beat a Carolina heartthrob."

She felt the tears fall before she could get a chance to stop them. She hadn't wanted to talk about the past, just the future, and now here she was face to face with how he felt so long ago and she couldn't handle it. She couldn't bear to know that she had been the one that had done him that harsh reality.

"Chris, no matter happened in our past, I have forever loved you and I won't ever stop loving you. There was some reason all of this had to happen. I know that now, Matt showed me that. I know you don't want to me to sit here and talk about him but the truth of the matter is, he had to die to show the both of us what we were doing wrong."

He felt his heart start to pick up in beating and knew that what she was saying was the truth. She had admitted it to him now, both of them wide awake and able to understand what it meant. She loved him now just as she had always loved him then and where they went from there it didn't matter as long as they went together.

I like to imitate old jerry lee
and watch you roll your eyes when I'm slightly off key
and I like the innocent way that you cry
at sappy old movies you've seen hundreds of times

"Well I guess there is only one thing left to say now." Chris stated, not taking his eyes off the woman before him for anything in the world. He always wanted to remember the way she looked this day, the day that they both finally admitted how they felt.

"What would that be?"

"I told you in the ambulance on the way here how I felt about you, and I will say it again now. I loved you then and I love you now, possibly even more then before. The only real thing I need to know is Amy Dumas Hardy; will you take a big leap with me and marry me?"

And I could list a million things
I love to like about you
but they all come down to one reason
I could never live without you

"Just try stopping me Chris Irvine, just try stopping me."

I love the way you love me
Strong and wild
Slow and easy
Heart and soul
so completely
I love the way you love me
Oh baby I love the way you love me
