I arrived at Raleigh- Durham international airport at 9:50pm; the plane had been delayed a couple hours due to weather conditions or something I wasn't quite sure, one thing I was sure of though was the how much I couldn't wait to be with Jeff. I missed him so much and couldn't wait to tell him all about the meeting with Vince.
I had collected my bags and had been through customs and everything all that was left to do was find Jeff, he was supposed to be waiting for me just at the main entrance. And surely enough there he was, god I'd missed him. I'd been looking out for his hair, if ever you lose Jeff Hardy all you have to do is look for his hair, the reason why it took me ages to spot him this time was of course because he was wearing a hat. I had noticed that Jeff did tend to cover himself up when he went out to majorly populated places.
"Oh God baby I'm so happy to see you," he told me quietly as we gently embraced, "I have missed you so bad."
"I missed you too," I replied holding him tightly.
"Was your flight alright?" Jeff asked as he took my bag from me with one hand and took my hand with the other.
"Not too bad, I was glad to get on it after the delay, and I'm even more glad to see you. I'm so excited to see where you live baby; does it take long to get there?"
"About 40 minutes or so, don't worry baby I'll get you there." He smiled as we made our way out of the airport. I stepped outside and breathed in the beautiful North Carolina air, I had loved it here when I had travelled and was really happy about being back here.
"So what do you have planned for me for tonight Mr Enigma?" I asked on our journey to Jeff's house.
"Well tonight I hope you don't mind but we're going out to dinner at my brothers place, is that okay? I know you've had a busy day and everything and you just wanna crash, but Matt really needs company right now."
"Jeff you don't have to justify your self, I'd love to have dinner with your brother. Is he going to cook?"
"Yup Matt's a great cook…"
"And he doesn't mind me coming along?"
"No not at all!"
"Does he know about us?"
"Yeah, I've told everyone about us and that you're coming. My Dad especially is looking forward to meeting you."
I looked over at Jeff driving and smiled, I was so happy to be here with him, "that's good them, I'm real nervous though, what if they think I'm not good enough for you or something?"
"What? Don't be stupid why would anyone ever think that! Hey look there, that's my house…"
"That's you're house?" I asked.
"Yeah…"
Jeff parked his car in his driveway and we got out and headed inside. It was amazing; I could believe it there were models and artwork everywhere, totally not how I'd expected… but then again looking at Jeff I guess that nothing can be assumed when it comes to him.
"Do you want to change or anything before we go?" he asked, watching me as I looked around, examining everything, making sure I looked at every detail.
"Oh yes please…" I smiled back.
"Want any help?" he asked me with a grin.
"In your dreams Hardy boy…" I teased. The two of us went up stairs and I changed, it wasn't long before we had to be at Matt's house for dinner.
"Hey Matt, you remember Riley right? You went her at that party months ago…"
"Oh yeah I remember you, how could I forget such a pretty face! How are you?" Matt asked looking at me with a smile on his face.
"Hi Matt…" I smiled as we shook hands. "I'm really good thanks, how are you?"
"Not too bad thanks…" I could tell by his face that he really wasn't alright. Matt was still getting over that fact that his girlfriend of 6 years had been having an affair, Jeff had told me al about it and had said how worried he was for his bother. "So are you hungry Riley? You had better be I've like cooked enough food for a thousand people."
"Ha, seriously I could most probably eat that all to myself I think, I haven't eaten since breakfast."
"Oh yeah of course Jeff told me you've been meeting with Vince today. Did it go okay?" Matt asked putting his big, strong arm around my shoulders and guiding the way to the kitchen. I quickly turned my head and looked behind to see where Jeff was. He was following giving me a smile of approval.
"It went really well! I signed a contract for a development deal." I told him.
"That's great news, so is that what you wanted?"
"God yes definitely, I am so excited about this!"
"Right you two just take a seat and I'll start dishing up, Jeffro are you hungry?" Matt asked his brother.
Jeff took a seat at the table next to me "Oh yeah man starving."
The three of us ate dinner together and chatted for hours, it was so much fun getting to know Matt, he was real funny, I liked him a lot. It was so strange to be sitting with both Hardy brothers at the same table, there both so different its difficult some times to tell that there brothers, well that is until they talk at least, once they show their compassion for one another then you definitely know. Jeff and I stayed there for the rest of the evening, I think that Matt was grateful of the company to be honest; he seemed to be enjoying himself at least.
