Chapter 28
I stood there in my room just staring into the mirror. I think I look so weird in a dress but it is my wedding day so I kinda have to. I only wear dresses on special occasions. Last I remember wearing a dress was for Mom and Johns wedding and for Dad and Beths wedding. But I will admit that the girls did a great job on me. I look like a princess. I never thought this day would come.
"Honey, you look beautiful" mom said as she came up behind me and looked into the mirror over my shoulder and smiled at me.
"She's right ya know. Jeff's a very lucky man" dad added as he did the same but on the other side.
"That may be" I turned around to face them "But I'm the luckiest one" I held my hand up "Let me explain before you argue dad" I eyed him "I'm lucky that you guys just happened to be driving down the road we were on. If you guys didn't pick us up then who knows who would have. We could have ended up getting taken back to our biological mother and would have gotten absolutely nowhere in life. But look at me now. I'm 21 and getting married to the most amazing man alive, besides you dad" I smiled at him "I've become a professional wrestler and have been the Women's Champion for a little over a year and I've been in the last 2 Royal Rumble matches. I've actually made something of myself because it was you guys that took us in as your kids when you didn't have to. You gave us everything my real dad would have if he was still alive. I know I am and I'm sure he is too. I'm very proud of the way I turned out and I have no doubt that you guys will do a great job of raising Chad too. I know its just kindergarten but he's the smartest kid in his class" I explained to them
"I'm just glad I decided to retire when I had Neveah so he could go to a public school. I really wanted him to have that experience. And I know you thank us but we thank you too. Just accept it. There's a lot of things that wouldn't be the way they are now if it wasn't for you" Mom gave me a hug
"Cause you know that Beth and I wouldn't have even gotten together if it wasn't for you" Dad gave me a hug
I smiled "Well I do take credit for that one. And Randy and Sarah, I take credit for that marriage and also the 3 month old fetus" I laughed
"And I can tell you're working on Mike and Nattie. They would be a cute couple" Mom gushed
"Why not? My match making has worked 2 times already. Why not try 3 for 3?" Dad just smiled at me "What?" I asked
"That's why Jeff is so lucky. Why we're all so lucky to have you around. You care more about other peoples happiness than you do your own"
"Well ever since I've even been just friends with Jeff, I've always been happy so I didn't have to worry about my happiness. That's why we're getting married in his back yard under some of his sculptures. Cause I know how much it means to him. As long as I'm his wife by the end of it then I don't care how we get there. I love his artwork anyways"
Mom just smiled again and gave me another hug "I love you"
"I love you too mom" I hugged her back "Dad?" I held out my arms and he came over and gave me another hug as well "I love you dad"
"I love you too Kat"
"Now nothing against you guys but I have an hour left before I become Mrs. Hardy. I'd like some time to myself" I asked
"Of course you can honey. It's your day, you can have anything you want" mom said as she gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
"I'll come get you when it's time" dad gave me a hug as well
"Thanks" I said then sat on the bed as the door shut. I just sat there and thought about all the stuff Jeff and I have been through in the last 6 years. I still remember our biggest fight. We almost broke up. It was when dad and Shawn Michaels were feuding and Cameron and I had been put in a romantic storyline. At the time Jeff and I had been dating for 3 years and I was 18...
Flashback
I had just got done filming a little make out session with Cameron and was on my way back to Jeff and I's locker room. "Hey Baby" I said as I walked in and sat next to Jeff on the couch.
"I don't know how much more of this I can take" he simply said
"I know work has been rough lately but please stay in WWE with me. Besides, you've said before that the only time that you're truly happy is when you're with me" I offered cause I know he's been thinking about leaving WWE and going to TNA.
"No, works fine. That's not what I'm talking about" he looked straight at me with that look. I looked at him for a minute and I realized what he was talking about.
"Really Jeff? Really?"
"Didn't know I was talking to Mike" he cocked off
"Fuck you. Will you please explain to me exactly what your problem is?" I raised my voice a little as I stood there with my arms crossed. I'm getting really sick of this argument.
"Do you ever watch video of you and Cameron's segments?" he asked ridiculously
"All the time. That's why they look so good. It's called perfecting your craft!" I yelled
"What the fuck ever Katherine. You wanna know what it looks like?"
"You're gonna tell me anyways" I rolled my eyes
"You guys look more in love than you and I do. You have any idea how heartbreaking it is to watch that? And to see all the videos and everything? That should be you and me not you and him"
"Really?" I asked and he just looked at me "Ok ok, I hang out with Mike too much but really Jeff? Why do you think I'd leave you?" I asked incredulously
"Well Cameron is a lot closer to your age" he offered
"Which is SUPPOSED to make you more mature than him" I countered
"But we can't act like a couple out in public cause of the age difference" he's gonna get out every excuse he can think of as to why I'd choose Cameron over him so I'll let him.
"Yes we can. I turned 18 last week remember?"
"But I'm the only person you've loved. Do you have any idea how many relationships end when its your first one?"
"Atleast a fourth of them make it. I'd consider myself part of the 25%" I smiled
"But what about when it comes to kids?"
"What about it?"
"I'm gonna be ready to settle down here within 10 years and 10 years from now you're still gonna be younger than what I am right now"
"It's called compromise Jeff" I said obviously
"And what if I'm not willing to compromise?" he asked with attitude
"Then I'd call bullshit cause for the past 3 years, 3 YEARS! you've been keeping our relationship a secret from the public. 3 years for a professional wrestler in the WWE to keep a relationship secret is amazing. If that's not a compromise then I don't know what is" I tried to comfort him
"No Katherine! You can say whatever you want to make me feel better but it's not gonna happen. I know you'll leave me for Cameron so I might as well end our relationship before I have anymore heartache" he said and turned to walk to the door.
"OH HELL NO! You turn around and walk your ass back over here and listen to what the fuck I have to say. After telling you this like a million times, this is the LAST, you hear me? LAST time that I'm gonna tell you this…I know we're older now and know more but there is NOTHING I mean NOTHING between Cameron and I. Besides he's been with his girlfriend for 2 years and we've been together for 3. Cameron started being around a lot more 2 years ago. If I was gonna leave you for him then I would have done it a long time ago Jeff. I know I haven't experienced other love besides you and you think that makes me more prone to leave you well let me tell you this" I stopped yelling and walked up to him and put my arms around his neck and looked into his eyes "From the moment I met you I knew there was something special about you. Of course because of the age difference I didn't think much but I still felt more comfortable with you than I have anybody else in my entire life. So that would make you my best friend and they say you're supposed to end up with your best friend. We were meant to be Jeff. And nothing, I repeat, NOTHING will pull us apart. I love you Jeffrey Nero Hardy" I said and gave him the most passionate kiss I could muster up. With all the love I have for this man, there is no way that I'm gonna let him walk away. Besides, I know he got everybody's ok to ask me to marry him like 2 years ago. Not much has changed in our relationship since then. So I had to make him believe me. "Do you believe me now?" I had to ask
He just stared into my eyes, then smiled "I love you so much Kitty"
"Now that sounds better" I smiled "I probably would have thrown up if you called me Katherine one more time. Nobody calls me that except for if they're mad at me so I really hate hearing you say it. Its like the worst sound I've ever heard"
"Over-exaggerator" he laughed
"Only by a little, that's the crazy thing" I laughed and gave him a kiss
End Flashback
I know it wasn't much but that was the worst fight we've ever had. I looked back into the mirror and remembered the best night I ever had with Jeff. It was my 20th birthday…
Flashback
We didn't have to work today, which is good since its my birthday so yesterday we had my birthday party at mom and John's house with everybody there. We all had such a blast, they actually let me drink with them all the time now, so yes I had a blast too. But today Jeff was actually able to make it just me and him all day. First we got up at the butt crack of dawn and went to Extreme World in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin. That place is such an adrenaline rush and both me and Jeff are like adrenaline junkies so once we heard about that place, we made it a point to go. We already said that we were going atleast once every year now. Since we had gotten up so early, we were done there by 1. So Jeff took me to the Smithsonian. I have a thing with museums, I just find them so fascinating. We left around 9 and didn't have enough time to see everything but I didn't care. I was already having the best day of my life so far. I don't know how it can get any better. Then we flew to New York and went to Central Park and had a moonlight picnic. It was so romantic. I was looking up at the stars and I could feel Jeff staring at me. So I looked at him and he was "What?" I giggled
He just looked at me with that charming smile of his and sighed "There's just no words" and continued smiling.
I couldn't help but smile back at him. I looked around and had a thought "And how are you supposed to show what words can't say?" I smirked at him, giving him that look. I've been feeling spontaneous all day. But today was spontaneous, for me. Jeff had it all planned but didn't tell me what we were doing. I actually thought my birthday party at mom and Johns was gonna be today but they moved it to last night, which I liked a whole hell of a lot better. He smirked back so I closed my eyes and leaned in for a kiss but my lips didn't touch his. I couldn't tell what is was so I opened my eyes and Jeff was sitting there holding out my dream wedding ring in a blue velvet box. I didn't know what to say. I was speechless.
"I'm glad that you're speechless cause I actually had a little speech planned" he smiled as I just sat there with my mouth open "Kitty, you have no idea how much you mean to me. In all honesty, I knew the moment I laid eyes on you that you were the one. But because of the age I tried to resist, see where that got me" he laughed "It didn't take me too long to realize that I shouldn't resist and I'm glad I didn't. You are just my everything, you really are. I've never felt more alive in my entire life than when I'm with you. I can't even imagine my life with out you anymore and I can't even live in this world anymore if it didn't have you in it. I need you in my life. Katherine Marie Henigan will you make the happiest man alive and be my wife?" he said and smiled at me with that smile that I can't help but smile back at.
"Nothing would me make me happier than to become your wife" I just couldn't stop smiling as he put the ring on my finger, then we kissed and went on to do what I originally had in my mind.
End Flashback
That was the best day of my life to date. Until today, despite what a lot of people say about weddings being stressful, ours hasn't been. Ya there's like 350 people out there but it wasn't a real big hassle since its at our house (I moved in with Jeff when I turned 18 and people were able to know about us) we have a huge yard, I don't even know how many acres so the wedding and reception both are gonna be here. We did all the decorations and we just hired a catering service for all the food and we used all the tables and chairs from Vince and from family and friends, we had plenty of people that helped out. I'm so appreciate for our family and friends. Just then there was a knock on the door "Come in" I shouted.
"It's time" dad said as he walked in "Are you ready?"
I took a deep breath "As ready as I'll ever be" I smiled and linked my arm with his. I walk out there in time to see Chad in his little tux half way up the walkway carrying our rings on a little blue pillow and my little sister (Mom and Johns daughter) Nevaeh spreading the flowers behind her. They both looked so cute. I look up at the alter and see my bridesmaids; Lisa, Nattie, Beth and Sarah and my mom was my maid of honor. They looked so beautiful in their dresses. I let them wear whatever dress they wanted. The guys looked handsome in their tuxes too. Jeff's groomsmen were John, Mike, Dad (which was a little weird but we all are) and Randy. His best man was Matt. The bridal march started (which was actually a remix, Jeff put a little spin on it) and everybody stood up and Jeff turned around. I hope the cameraman got a picture of the look on Jeff's face when he saw me. It was priceless. I wanted to bust out laughing. I was able to contain it a little bit.
"You saw the look on Jeff's face too?" dad asked as he laughed a little too
"Sure did. It's already burned into my head for anytime I need a good laugh"
"You do look very beautiful you know" dad commented
"I know. The girls did an amazing job. I've never looked so beautiful" I gushed
"And you probably won't ever again will you?" he asked
"Hell no, you know me dad. It's so not me"
He laughed "I know, I had to ask" he said as we got up to the alter and took mine and Jeff's hands "You have and I know you will but I have to say it. You better treat my daughter right or I'll kill ya man" dad said to Jeff
"You don't have to worry about that" Jeff smiled at me as dad placed our hands together and walked over to his spot between Mike and Randy.
"You look absolutely stunning" Jeff beamed at me as we took the couple of steps to the pastor and Jeff pulled my vail off and I handed my bouquet to mom.
"You don't look bad yourself" I smiled back and the pastor started the ceremony and it went on without a hitch. We had written our own vows and Jeff''s actually made me cry. I should have had him write mine too. But I was happy with them and so was Jeff. He actually said mine was better. I'll let him think that cause he wouldn't believe me that his were better.
I know we're gonna have a wonderful life together. And it starts with our honeymoon, we decided to take a months vacation around the world hitting all the good haunted places, historical sites and landmarks. Jeff had been suspended cause of a 2nd warning on the wellness policy and they had me out on 'injury' for a month. They said that storyline wise, you have to defend your title atleast once every 30 days. They insisted I take the whole month off so we took advantage of the month. We had the best time of our lives. It was so much fun. I'm very happy to be living the rest of my life as Katherine Marie Hardy.
A/N: SO THAT WAS THE ENDING FOR THIS ONE. HONESTY, WHAT DID YOU GUYS THINK? THAT'S HOW I'M GONNA DO THE OTHERS TOO. AGAIN I APOLOGIZE FOR NOT FINISHING THIS LIKE IT SHOULD RIGHTFULLY BE DONE BUT I JUST WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO DO IT MUCH JUSTICE. THIS IS THE BEST I COULD DO. AND AGAIN, THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR READING :D
