Thanks for the reviews, here's the next chapter
Disclaimer: I own none of these people
Jeff was in his new locker room and he sat on one of the small couches. He looked around and took it all in. He was back in business and he had Lita as a friend again. Life was going great… then there was a knock on the door.
"Hardy" Coach said
Jeff frowned when he saw him "Yeah?" Jeff said, not paying him any attention at all
"You have your first match tonight" Coach said
"Uh hu" Jeff said, still not paying attention
"It's a mixed tag team match. You and Trish Stratus against Edge and Lita" Coach stated proudly.
"WHAT!" Jeff yelled. Now he defiantly was paying attention "You made that match?"
"No, Edge requested it and Mr. McMahon granted it" Coach said and he walked off
Jeff closed the door and went and sat on the couch and he looked around again, suddenly things weren't so great. Jeff got up and he went to the women's locker room and he knocked on the door
Victoria opened the door
Jeff faked a smile at her "Hey um is Trish or Lita in there?"
"Please, Lita in here…we are not up to her so called standards apparently. I don't understand why you would even want to be back for her. She will do what she does to everyone, she will use you and then she will just move on" Victoria said with a smirk on her face
"No, see you don't know Lita like I do anyway is Trish in there?" Jeff said getting impatient
"Nope, she's probably with Carlito" Victoria said
Jeff nodded in thanks and he walked off to try and find one of the two. Sure enough he saw his best friend first
"Li!" Jeff called out as he jogged to her
Lita turned around and she smiled at him and she waved
"Hey Jeff, what's up?" Lita asked
"Did you know about the match Edge requested?" Jeff asked wanting to get an answer
"What match?" Lita said
"The mixed tag match, You and Edge Vs. Me and Trish" Jeff said
"Are you just being funny or what?" Lita asked
"I'm not making this up. That's what match Edge requested and I wanted to know if you knew about it" Jeff said
"Jeff I had nothing to do with that at all. I just found out then… you have to…you just have to trust me on that one." Lita practically begged Jeff to believe her
"No I believe you; I have to go talk to Trish and see what we are going to do" Jeff said as he ran a hand through his hair
"Well okay, I will see you out there I guess" Lita managed to say
"Yeah, cya" Jeff mumbled and he rushed off to find Trish
In Trish's locker room
"So Edge thought of this match?" Trish said
"Yeah he did and I'm so mad. I mean why would he put Lita in danger like that!" Jeff growled
"Jeff, Edge knows that you would not even think about touching Lita. She's your kryptonite and Edge know that" Trish said
"She's not safe! What happens if I go to hit Edge but he moves and I get her! Him being the man he is will probably do that" Jeff said
"Yeah but he has her in the match for insurance basically" Trish said and Jeff seemed confused by that
Trish went and sat next to Jeff and she took his hand as a comforting gesture
"Look Jeffy, he wants her in the match so that if he is getting beaten up by you he will just tag in Lita and you will have no choice but to back up and tag me in" Trish said softly
Jeff looked down and then he looked back at Trish
"We have to win this match tonight" Jeff said
"We will, just stay focused on Edge and don't worry about Lita. She will be fine" Trish said and she released his hand and Trish stood up and she went to her bag
"So, you know that Lita came and asked me about what happened when you and I were standing outside the hotel" Trish said with a small smile on her face
"Yeah, she tried to get it out of me but she just said that she would ask you" Jeff said and Trish nodded "Well I'm going to go get ready, I'll see you out there"
Trish smiled at Jeff and he walked out and he went back to his locker room and he got ready
During the match
Edge and Jeff were in the ring and Jeff had complete control of the match until Edge raked Jeff in the eyes and Jeff leaned against the ropes and he had his hand on his face. Edge went to spear Jeff but he got the ref instead and it was in fact on purpose.
"He's making a habit of knocking down the Ref" King said
"Yeah but lets see where this is going to go because I don't think Lita will want to hurt Jeff at all" JR said
Jeff opened his eyes again and he went to tackle Edge but Edge shoved Lita to Jeff and Jeff caught her. Edge quickly got out of the ring while Jeff checked on Lita
"I'm sorry are you okay!" Jeff said
"I'm fine" Lita replied "It wasn't your fault"
Jeff held onto Lita for all it was worth because he wanted her to be okay and it kind of scared him that he almost hit her.
After a few seconds Jeff let go of Lita and he turned around only to be smashed over the head with a steel chair. Lita screamed as she saw what happened to her best friend
Trish was out of the ring and on the floor after she was knocked down there by Edge. Jeff was just about to check on her before he was raked in the eyes
Lita looked terrified at Edge and then she looked down at Jeff who a second ago was holding onto her, making sure she was okay. Lita knelt down quickly and she tried to wake Jeff up. Edge grabbed her by the arm and pulled her up
"Cover him now!" Edge ordered
"No way! What the hell were you thinking Edge!" Lita yelled at him
"Cover him NOW!" Edge said as he tightened his grip on her arm
"Okay! You're hurting me!" Lita said
Edge let go of Lita and he pushed her towards Jeff who didn't move. Lita was really upset and she was almost crying at the fact that she was about to cover him and she couldn't even help him.
Lita knelt down again and she covered him. She leaned over his chest and she whispered "Sorry" to Jeff tearfully
The Ref counted 3 and Lita got up straight away and Edge raised his and Lita's arms and all Lita did was look at Jeff. Lita then realised that Edge had taken her hand; she ripped it away from him. Edge looked at Lita and she shook her head and backed out the ring and started to go up the ramp. Edge asked her to come back but she just kept walking. Edge got out and hurried to her but she just kept going backstage.
Lita and Edge disappeared behind the curtain and then Carlito ran down the ramp and ran to the side of the ring and he went to check on Trish. Carlito made sure she was okay and then she sat up and she looked in the ring and she saw Jeff with a cut on his head, lying in the ring.
"OH MY GOSH!" Trish said
Trish got up and she rushed in the ring and she put a hand on his cheek and she looked up at Carlito
"What happened?" Trish asked
"Edge knocked the ref down and Jeff went to tackle Edge but he shoved Lita at Jeff and Jeff made sure she was okay. He turned around and then he was knocked out by the steel chair shot Edge gave him and then Edge forced Lita to cover him. She stormed out after and he followed her" Carlito told her
Trish nodded and she lightly tapped Jeff's cheek and he began to stir
"Jeff, wake up" Trish said
Jeff sat up and he held his head in pain
"You okay?" Trish asked
"Yeah, are you?" Jeff asked back
"I'm fine. Come on, lets get you to a medic so you can get stitches" Trish said
Jeff nodded and he stood up and they walked backstage and Jeff held the back of his head.
Jeff sat there and got stitches and when the medic was finished, Trish sat next to Jeff
"So, you okay?" Trish asked
"I'm sore but that's okay" Jeff said
"Lita didn't want to pin you" Trish said
"I know. I don't blame her for anything. In fact I'm sure I said that she said she was sorry" Jeff said and Trish nodded
