Randy from an area backstage watched on a television his boyfriend's tag match against the Dudleys inside of a cage. The older Hardy had already escaped the cage and was waiting outside it for Jeff to get the chance to climb out. Only Jeff didn't climb out when he got to the top of the cage and instead did a swanton that sent him through the table after Devon moved out of the way. This cost the Hardys the match and Randy knew his boyfriend was hurt by the fact he hasn't really moved after putting himself through the table. Once Jeff had been brought backstage, Randy moved to slip his arm under Jeff's legs and carry him to where he'd be checked out by the medics. In the room, Randy was instructed to set Jeff on the table as the medics began to look him over. Holding Jeff's hand during the whole check over, Randy realized Matt hasn't at all come to see how his brother is doing and that is unusual. Adam, Jay, Chris, and Amy make their way into the room almost jamming the doorway in their rush to see if Jeff was okay.

"How is he?" Jay asked.

"Just a small concussion and looks like his back is irritated. Have him ice it up for a few days and keep from any strenuous activities. I'm going to prescribe you some pain meds to take that will help dull the pain."

"No pain meds." Jeff whispered as he tried to sit up only to be in pain.

"Easy. They will help with the pain." Randy slipped a hand behind his boyfriend to keep him steady as he sat up.

"Jeff, you need to take them." Adam backed up Orton.

"Okay." Jeff agreed.

Slowly Jeff was helped to change out of his ring gear and was about to move to stand when his legs gave out. Everyone immediately was right to him to prevent him from hitting the floor and possibly hurting himself more. Randy was tempted to just carry his boyfriend, but Jeff didn't want to be carried and just got led through the hallway.

"You take him back to the hotel room and have him rest." Adam instructed Randy who had no problem with that.

"Okay."

"Amy, have you seen Matt?" Jay asked.

"No. He disappeared when I was focused on Jeff and him getting to the medics' office." Amy explained.

"You would think he'd want to be here while his brother is hurt." Chris felt like something did not make sense.

"Really. I'm fine." Jeff assured as he continued to be led down the hallway towards the exit.

"Get some rest." Amy instructed as they got outside.

Chris opened the passenger's door of Randy's car for Jeff to sit down and then Randy rushed to the driver's side. He gave a wave to the others before pulling out of the parking lot and heading to the hotel. When stopped at a red light, Randy glanced to Jeff who looked to be a little depressed and he reached over to take his boyfriend's hand.

"What's bothering you?" Randy asked. "I know you have been bothered by something other than the pain."

"It's nothing." Jeff assured his boyfriend.

"Jeff."

"I think Matt is going to be mad at me. Tonight I had a chance for us to win the belts and instead did something stupid for us to fail."

"You don't know that you would have made it off the cage. The Dudleys could have somehow prevented you from making it." Randy wanted to try helping his boyfriend.

"Matt was telling me to come down and I just ignored him." Jeff whispered as his eyes focused on out the window.

"Jeff." Randy wanted his boyfriend to look at him. "You can't beat yourself up over this."

Knowing that Randy was right on the match and that it wouldn't have been guaranteed he had escaped down the cage. A nod came from Jeff as he turned to look at his boyfriend who began to pull into a drive thru that had the smaller a little confused.

"You shouldn't take pain meds with an empty stomach." Randy told him as he pulled up to the speaker and rolled his window down.

"What can I get you?"

"I need one double burger. One chicken sandwich. Two coke colas." Randy ordered for himself and Jeff.

Once they had gotten the food, Randy drove to in the direction of the hotel while him and Jeff shared some fries. They got stuck in some traffic, but didn't really care since both had some alone time together without anyone getting between them. Randy knew due to injury him and Jeff had to take somethings slow to not make Jeff worse. When Jeff looked to be enjoying the fries, Randy couldn't stop himself from laughing over the fact his boyfriend usually refused to eat junk like those.

"Are you going to eat a salad tomorrow to balance out those?" Randy asked with a smirk.

"No. I think some excepts can be made while I rest." Jeff answered as he took a sip of his soda.

"Why did you think Matt deserved to be mad at you?"

"Ever since me and Matt were kids, things weren't easy for him because of me. He had to take up the role of protecting me when others would make fun of the fact I was different from normal boys. I made his life hard growing up and then Taker came after our mom passed away for me to start being watched by him. Matt finally had some time to not have to be watching after me. Now I can see he's noticing the things fans say about our wrestling."

"I'm confused."

"Fans think I'm better at wrestling than Matt, but I don't think so."

"Jeff, you should ignore things like that. If Matt does believe them, then it's his problem and not yours. You are a very talented wrestler Jeff. Never think you aren't." Randy told his boyfriend.

Pulling into the hotel parking lot, Randy grabbed the food while Jeff got the drinks to slowly get out without hurting himself. He watched Randy grabbed his gear bag for him and together they headed to the elevator that took them up to Jeff's floor. Once off the elevator, Jeff opened his room's door and they entered to set their dinner on a small table.

"I'm going to just change into pajamas." Jeff told the taller as he began heading to his suitcase.

"Want me to help you?" Randy asked with a smile.

"I can get dressed on my own." Jeff rolled his eyes and grabbed a t-shirt and pajama pants.

Jeff entered the bathroom to come out a few minutes later changed and sat on his bed to be passed his meal by Randy who sat seconds after with his own. The two of them ate with talking about their recent matches and Randy noticed as they were close to finished eating that Jeff looked ready to fall asleep. He threw out the trash for his boyfriend to then pull the blanket over him when he lied down. A hand grabbed his own for Randy to look down at Jeff and knew what the smaller wanted him to do. Slipping under the blanket beside him, Randy felt Jeff lay his head on his chest and soon both of them were asleep. Hours later had Mark entering the room to see the couple and he looked around his nephew's bed to see no scattered clothes. Over knowing they hadn't done anything, he allowed the two to stay asleep and would just scare Orton out in the morning.
