Chapter 2
Matt Hardy sat in his locker room in a state of confusion and awe. His ex-girlfriend's little sister liked him! Terra liked him. What was he going to do? He'd already told her that there was no way that the two of them could be together, and that was the truth in his mind. He was still crazy about her sister. She had to know that.
He sighed, then reached for his cell phone and called his brother.
"Hello?" Jeff Hardy answered.
"Jeff, man, I've got a problem," Matt said right away.
"Took you long enough to realize it. Now when are you gonna get laser surgery to get that thing removed? It's gross!"
"What? What are you talking about?"
"Sorry, I thought you were Randy calling back."
"Randy Orton?" Matt raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah, he's got this nasty ass wart right on his... What are you doing calling right now?"
"I have a problem, dude. A girl problem."
"Lord knows you've had enough girl problems lately. Is it her again?"
"Worse. It's her sister."
"Terra? What's up with her?"
"We were, like, talking a few minutes ago and then she admitted that she's had this crush on me for years."
"And what'd you tell her?"
"I told her there was no way we could be together."
"In those exact words?"
"Basically."
"Way to go, Matt. Real smooth. I bet she ran out crying."
"Yeah," Matt admitted. "And I feel really bad about it. What should I do to make it up to her?"
"You should totally take her out on a date," Jeff said decidedly. "A romantic date."
"Are you stupid? I'm still crazy about her sister!"
"So? You could make Terra happy temporarily and get back at Amy for what she did."
"Do you know what that would do to Terra? That would make her hate me forever! And she's a good friend. I could never use a friend like that or play with anyone's emotions that way."
"Oh, think about it, Matt. The possibilities!"
"What possibilities? You know I don't like people playing with my heart. Why would I play with Terra's heart?"
"Dude, just be quiet and listen for a minute."
"Fine, Jeff. Talk," Matt said, lying down on the couch and closing his eyes.
"Picture this. You go out with Terra. You do Terra. You have fun with Terra." Jeff paused for effect. "And you get back at her sister in the process. Now what's so wrong with that?"
"Everything," Matt said. "Everything is wrong with that, Jeff. It's so juvenile."
"Whatever, dude. You must get with Terra. Do her for me, for us guys that have no chance."
"Now you're just being crazy."
"Dude, screw her for America. If you don't hook up with that girl, you'll be pulling a Benedict Arnold. You'll be a traitor to all the men in the entire country."
"I can't."
"You can at least kiss her once." Jeff paused. "Then see how you feel after that."
"You're a loser, Jeff," Matt said, sitting up. "I gotta go."
"If you don't hit that, Matt, you will be the loser," Jeff retorted.
"I'll call you sometime soon."
"Ok. Later, bro."
"Later."
Matt hung up the phone feeling more confused than he'd felt before he'd talked to Jeff. Jeff's just being crazy. I could never pretend to like Terra just to get back at Amy, he thought. Could I?
He shook his head. Damn, Jeff had him actually considering it!
"No way," Matt said aloud, just to reassure himself. "There's no way I'm gonna do that to Terra." But he stood up, all the same, and headed for the door.
I've got to go and make things right, he thought, then left his locker room and headed for Adam's locker room, where he was sure Terra would be.
