Chapter 67
One year later…
KC and Jeff sat on their couch on one of their rare day's home. Since leaving the ring and becoming GM, KC swore she was working harder. She was involved in so many story lines making sure everything was running smoothly. She let out a sigh as she leaned back onto Jeff's shoulder.
"What are you thinking about Kace," Jeff asked playing with her hair.
"Just about how crazy everything has been lately," KC said with another sigh.
"It hasn't been all bed," he said. "Seeing Chris settle down with Steph tomorrow is going to be cool. Moore is just a growing boy with Xander working hard on trying to keep up with him. Sure we've been traveling a lot but it's not all crazy."
"I'm worried about Shannon."
"Why?" Jeff looked at his wife confused. As far as he knew everything was fine with his friend.
"Have you not noticed how secretive he's been lately? He's always scampering off somewhere away from the group. I asked him what he has been doing and the standard answer is 'nothing,' I know something is going on."
"Kace," Jeff turned KC to look at him. "He's a big boy. Let him be. When he wants to let us know what's going on, he will. Let's change the subject."
"What do you want to talk about then Nero?"
"How about," Jeff leaned over and began nibbling her ear. "How Daddy has Moore for the night and we," he began kissing down her neck causing her to shiver. "Are all alone," he licked back up her neck.
KC looked at Jeff and saw the passion in his eyes. "How come I feel like we've had this conversation before?"
Jeff leaned in and nipped her lips. "Because we have it every time Daddy takes your son."
"My son," KC said with a raised brow. Jeff got up from the couch pulling her with him.
"Yes, your son." Jeff ran his hands up and down her back, cupping her bottom, pulling her in closer. She could feel how turned on he was. "How about we finish this conversation upstairs? I suddenly feel like it's time for bed."
KC leaned in and brushed her lips across his. "I think that's a great idea." Hand in hand the two Hardy's approached the stairs ready for bed.
The Next Day…
"Nero," KC yelled. "You have ten minutes to get your rainbow haired ass down here. I have to meet Chris in 20 minutes."
Chris and Stephanie decided to hold their wedding on Hardy land. It had become a second home to them since they began dating. It only seemed fitting that they exchange their vows on the land that Chris purchased from Gil. He wanted to build a house to be nearer to his "family."
"I'm coming Kace, you need to chill," Jeff yelled from the top of the stairs.
"Damn Hardy," KC said with an appreciative whistle. "I forgot how hot you look in a tux."
"Why thank you Mrs. Hardy," he said taking a bow. "Might I add you look positively radiant in that little black dress?"
KC smiled and blushed. Chris insisted that she be his best person. She refused to wear a tux or a regular bridesmaid dress. She wanted a simple classic black formal dress and she found one. Shane was Steph's best personas well. He got to wear a tux because, as Chris had said, no one needed to see Shane O'Mac in a dress.
Jeff grabbed KC's hand and they left their house headed to the ceremony and reception sight. Luckily for them, they could walk there.
Ten minutes later, KC spotted Chris pacing nervously in the grooms area. "Where the hell have you been," he yelled grabbing her into a hug.
"Why hello to you too Christopher," she said wryly once he set her down. "We were getting ready. Did Gil bring Moore?"
"He's sitting in the front row waiting for Unca Foz to get 'mawwied.'" Chris looked at KC with a smirk as Jeff left to check on their son. "Isn't it about time your son learned to say married right?"
"Why would he need to," she asked back. "He sounds adorable the way he is. Now shut up and let me take a look at you." KC's eyes misted as Chris did the obligatory spin.
"What's with the waterworks?"
"You're getting married," KC said with a smile. "This is a really important day and I am sharing it with you."
"Now do you see why I was pissed with you and Jeff," he said with another smirk.
"It's been over a year Fozzy, get over it."
"Bite me Skeeter."
Suddenly a voice called 10 minutes and Chris began fidgeting.
"Come on Fozzy," KC said looping her arm through his. "Let's get you married."
After the ceremony…
KC was standing to the side holding Moore's hand in hers. She had her eyes trained on Shannon who was dancing with that red headed Diva. In fact he had been dancing with her the whole night.
"Son of a bitch," she said lowly causing Jeff to look at her in confusion.
"What's up," he asked.
"I know what's up with Shannon," she said almost amazed. "Why didn't I see it before?"
"What?" Jeff was still puzzled but followed his wife's eyes to where their friend was dancing with a Diva. Suddenly a light bulb went off over his head. "You don't think…"
KC just nodded her head as she continued to stare. She didn't even notice her father-in-law come over.
"KC," Gil said snapping her into attention. "I'm a bit tired. I am going to take Moore Christopher back to my house so we both can get some sleep." He took Moore's hand from hers. "I want you two to enjoy yourselves."
KC leaned up and gave her father-in-law a kiss on the cheek. "You are the best, you know that right."
"Of course I am," Gil said with a smile. "Only the best could have the best daughter."
Jeff and KC watched as Gil left with their little boy. A slow song came over the speakers.
"Care to dance Mrs. Hardy?"
"Why I would love Mr. Hardy."
Hand in hand they walked to the dance floor. KC looked around and saw Chris and Stephanie kissing at their seats. Matt and Amy were snuggled up on the dance floor as well as Shannon and his Diva. She turned and looked up and Jeff who was staring into her eyes and decided it was the perfect time to let him in on a little secret.
"Jeff," she asked quietly. "How many times have I told you I'm pregnant?"
"Zero," he said with a chuckle. "However, she did show me once." KC grabbed his hand and slid it down between their bodies so it was resting on her stomach. He looked at her with a question and answer in his eyes.
"Make that twice," she said into his ear.
"Are you really," he asked without moving his hand from where she placed it.
"Yes sir," KC said in her best Southern accent. "You done knocked me up again paw."
Jeff leaned down and kissed her tenderly on the lips. "How far?"
"Six weeks," she responded kissing him back. "I went to the road doctor on Monday. I just wanted to figure out the best way to tell you."
"Tell him what," Matt asked as he and Amy danced closer to the other couple.
"Telling who what," Chris asked as he and Stephanie joined the other two.
Jeff looked at KC and smiled with his hand still on her stomach. KC blushed and looked down. Amy and Stephanie followed her line of vision and suddenly screamed causing the whole place to go still.
Matt and Chris just looked at each other cluelessly and shrugged their shoulders.
Shannon came running over. "What the hell is wrong?"
"Nothing," Jeff and KC replied.
Steph and Amy looked at each other. "Nothing my ass," Stephanie said with that famous smirk of hers. "You couldn't just keep your hands off of her, could you?"
"Dimmit," Amy said with a pout. "I hate that bus."
"But Ames," KC said softly. "We won't need the bus for at least another four months if not longer that's if someone's dad will still let me be on TV all fat."
"Could someone please tell us what the hell is going on," Chris yelled causing everyone to look at them again. While Matt still was puzzled, Shannon just looked at KC.
"Awww," he said wiping a fake tear from his eye. "My baby's having a baby."
Amy turned to Matt and Chris who stood there with their mouths hanging open as the rest of the group laughed. "Close your mouths guys." She turned to Stephanie. "It's a sad day when Reject figures something out before our husbands."
"Sis is going to have a baby," Matt said picking KC up and hugging her.
"You just had to but in on my," Chris winced as Stephanie coughed. "Our ," he corrected, "big day. You just had to top us by getting knocked up." KC laughed as he too grabbed her into a hug.
"So, we're having another baby," Shannon said.
"Yes we are," Jeff said wrapping his arms around KC again.
KC looked at Shannon hard causing him to squirm. "Hey Reject, do you have anything you need to tell us?" Everyone turned to him as he started blushing knowing KC figured him out too.
"Um," he began. "I really am having a good time at this wedding." He looked at KC his stare was still on him. "The cake was awesome." He shook his head. "I have a girlfriend."
"Bingo," KC said. "Give the man a prize. Now, care to tell the group, or actually show us who this mystery girl is?" KC smiled as Shannon walked away from the group.
"So is this why he keeps ditching us," Amy asked.
"Yup," KC replied and smiled as Shannon came back holding his girl's hand.
"So," he said putting one hand in his pocket.
"Introduce her Reject," KC said with a grin. Everyone looked at her.
"But you know who she is," Shannon whined.
"Do it," KC said a little sterner trying to keep the mirth out of her eyes.
"Hey everyone," Shannon said in a mock happy manner. "This is my girlfriend Natalya. Natalya, these are my friends." Shannon groaned as KC coughed. "Natalya," he began again. "These fine, upstanding nuts in front of you are my family."
"No Shannon," KC said as everyone, including Natalya laughed. "Was that really that hard?"
"I hate you," he said dragging his laughing girlfriend with him.
"You can't hate me," KC called out to him with a wave to which she received the finger.
"Skeeter that was wrong," Chris said wiping his eyes. "But damn, it was funny."
"Serves him right," KC said laughing as well. "Wait till I get a hold of him tomorrow. I knew something strange was going on with that boy."
"How could you tell?" Matt, Chris and Jeff looked at each other as they all asked the same question.
"I know my Reject," KC leaned back against Jeff and plotted on how best to get Shannon back tomorrow.
