A/N: I don't opwn anyone from TNA/WWE

CenaCandiceFan4Life- Thank you, I really appreciate you and how you always review. You are the reason I am writing this story.

Merci POV

I was so tired that night; I didn't get up for school in the morning. My mom didn't want me going to school, until I healed a little more. I had a lot of bruises and a few cracked ribs. I was laying on the couch when my mom came back home.

"Merci?" she called.

"Couch." I said and she walked over and sat beside me.

"They caught him; he is in jail on the naval base." She said and I nodded. I was glad that he had been caught; it was an island and there is only so far you can go. I just wanted him out of our lives.

"You feel like going anywhere?" she asked me and I shrugged.

"I don't want to drive." I said.

"What if I drove you?" a voice said and I sat up, too quickly to see Phil standing by my mom. I laid back over in pain and groaned.

"Don't get to excited." Phil said and laughed at me.

"Shut up." I mumbled and he smiled at me.

"Come on, let's go to the diner to eat." He said and I looked at my mom.

"It would be good for you, plus Kelly and Dave are working; they asked about you." She said and I nodded.

I slowly walked upstairs and changed. I came down in some track pants and a t-shirt; I was going to be comfy.

We slowly walked outside to the truck and I got in; I was moving slow.

"Sorry that I am moving slow." I said.

"Shut up." He said and I smiled at him.

Phil POV

I was trying to get Merci out of the house and her mom saw me at the diner. She told me to come take Merci out. I offered to let Jeff do it, but apparently Merci's mother heard them outside the other day. She doesn't want Jeff hurting Merci.

We got there and I helped her out of the truck. She was so fragile, but didn't want help. I held the door and Kelly squealed as soon as she walked inside. She carefully hugged her and Dave hugged her.

"I can't believe you are out." Kelly told her.

"My mom and Phil conspired against me." She said and I smiled at her.

We ate and talked with Kelly and Dave; John came in a joined us after we ate. He was glad to see her up as well.

"You want to go sit on the beach?" I asked her after we left the diner and she nodded.

"Sure." She said and we headed to my house; I didn't want the Hardy's to bother us while we were on the beach. We pulled up and walked into the house. I ended up carrying her outside and placed her in the hammock.

"Lay with me?" she asked me and I wanted to, but I didn't want to hurt her.

"You won't hurt me." She said and I smiled, because it was like she read my mind.

I carefully lay behind her in the hammock and wrapped my arms around her; I liked having her in my arms. I was holding her as we watched the sun set.

"Thanks, for getting me out of the house." She said.

"You checked on me when I got hurt, so I wanted to do the same." I said and she smiled.

"I was the one who got you hurt." she said and I laughed.

"You did not." I said and she looked back at me.

"Right." She said and she was tracing my hand that was laying over her hip.

"Can I ask you something?" she asked me.

"Sure." I said.

"Are you really a player?" she asked me and I sighed.

"No, I got that because I wouldn't date anyone longer than a month." I said and she nodded.

"Why not?" she asked me.

"I was un happy." I said.

"Oh." She said.

"I mean, we are in high school; I used to think that I wouldn't find anyone that was worth even think of having a long term relationship. I thought most of the girls were shallow." I said.

"What changed your mind?" she asked me and I sighed… I didn't want to tell her the truth.

"A lot of things." I said and she nodded.

We laid outside for a while, before I carried her back to the truck and took her home. I walked her to the door and she hugged me.

"I had fun." She said and kissed my cheek.

"Good, I will see you later." I said and left.

Merci POV

I walked inside and my mom was smiling. I walked into the house and there were flowers on the table. I gave her a questioning look.

"Jeff and Matt brought those for you." She said and I nodded.

"Good night." I said and walked upstairs.

Jeff POV

I was in my room and drawing; Merci walked up to her room and opened the window.

"Thank you." She said and I looked at her; I smiled at her.

"You're welcome, how was dinner with Phil?" I asked her; I was a little jealous.

"Fine, he just got me out of the house; I'm pretty sure my mom paid him too." She said and tried to laugh.

"How about tomorrow you go with us to the beach?" I asked her and she nodded.

I talked to Merci a little longer before she fell asleep. I was glad that we were still talking and friends. I just didn't want her dating Phil; Dave would be better for her.
