Chapter 10

"Have you seen Jessica." Kevin asked.

"Not since early today." Josh answered.

"If you see her have her call home." Kevin said.

Kevin walked away and Josh knew exactly where to look. So he went to her thinking space and walked inside.

"Hey, you okay." Josh asked.

"Yes and no." Jessica answered.

"Kevin told me to tell you to call home." Josh said.

"Crap, I knew I forgot to do something." Jessica replied.

"Jess, I'm around if you want to talk." Josh said.

"I know." Jessica replied.

"You gonna stay in here all night." Josh asked.

"I thought about it." Jessica answered.

"Well, make your call and then come out and do what you have to do." Josh said.

Josh left Jessica alone and Jessica called home to let her uncle know everything was fine. Jessica hung up with her uncle and left her space. She walked through the halls and was stopped by Kevin.

"I called home so don't ask." Jessica said.

"Honey, what's wrong?" Kevin asked.

"No one tells me anything." Jessica answered.

"So what exactly do they tell you." Kevin asked.

"That's just it, they don't so I don't know what Jeff has decided." Jessica answered.

"I would guess it's for the best." Kevin said.

"Why do you say that?" Jessica asked.

"Kurt was gonna use you against Jeff." Kevin answered.

"Does Kurt know about Uncle Page." Jessica asked.

"He hasn't a clue, but you need to tell Jeff about him." Kevin answered.

"What have you told him." Jessica asked.

"I had to tell him about your uncle and I mentioned your dad as well." Kevin answered.

"Uncle Kev, that was for me to tell." Jessica said.

"I know baby girl but it's done." Kevin replied.

"I better find Jeff so we can start." Jessica said.

"I'll try to keep Kurt away from you." Kevin replied.

Jessica gave him a quick hug before walking to Jeff's office. Once there, she knocked before she entered. Jessica saw Jeff behind his desk. She walked to him and he got up and hugged her.

"How long do we have before we start." Jessica asked.

"About five minutes or so." Jeff answered.

"Good, now you can tell me what you've been trying to tell me all day." Jessica said.

"Before we get interrupted again. I've been trying to ask you out to dinner. That's why the dress." Jeff replied.

"Were you scared I'd say no?" Jessica asked.

"I know you wouldn't have." Jeff answered.

"Don't ever keep from telling me how you feel or what you have to tell me." Jessica said.

"I want to tell you I made a decision about the Main Even Mafia and I didn't tell you so they couldn't use you against me." Jeff replied.

"Kevin said Kurt was planning on it if I knew something." Jessica said.

"I want to keep it that way for now so he can't use you. I know it's hard for you not to have all the details but it's for the best." Jeff replied.

"I know it is." Jessica said.

"You never did answer me." Jeff replied.

"Jeff, dinner with you sounds wonderful." Jessica said.

"Really, you will." Jeff asked.

"Yes." Jessica answered.

Mick walked in and sat down.

"Got everything ready." Mick asked.

"Yeah. We just got to get Jess down to the front row." Jeff answered.

"Jeff, just get LAX to do it. They go first if I'm correct." Jessica said.

"You want to walk down with them." Jeff asked.

"Not that, Hernandez gave me a ticket and he can show me my seat." Jessica answered.

"She thinks of everything." Jeff said.

"I'll go get Hernandez." Mick replied.

Mick got up and left the office again.

"Try to stay safe when you're down there." Jeff said.

"You worry to much." Jessica replied.

"I have more reason to worry with you being out there and not back here." Jeff said.

Mick walked back with Hernandez following behind.

"Baby girl, ready." Hernandez asked.

"Yeah." Jessica answered.

"You're gonna have to explain that whole baby girl thing to me." Jeff said.

"Later, I promise." Jessica replied.

Jeff let her go. Jessica and Hernandez left the office. They walked down the hallway and down to the ring.

"You gonna be okay." Hernandez asked.

"Yeah besides you and Homicide are out first." Jessica answered.

Hernandez left and Jessica sat down in her seat and waited for the rest of the IMPACT Zone to fill with fans. Not even ten minutes later, the show started. Jessica did her job and acted like the rest of the fans and just like she said, LAX was first out. They walked past her and winked. They got into the ring and waited for Beer Money. Jessica wondered how the hell Jeff managed to get all her friends out here. This was good. She was protected for sure no matter what happened. The match went on as planned. LAX beat Beer Money. LAX left the ring and so did Beer Money. Next came Jeff and Jessica was thankful. Jeff got into the ring and Jeff made the announcement about what Kurt wanted under conditions to be decided later.

"Next I'm gonna pick a lucky later from the audience and bring her in this ring with me." Jeff said.

Jeff walked to the ropes and a guard was standing there and Jeff whispered to the guard. The next thing was Jessica was being helped over the barrier and into the ring. Jeff helped her in and she just looked at him as he lead her to the middle.

"What's your name, darlin'." Jeff asked.

"Jessica."

"So Jessica have you ever dreamed of being in the ring with The King of the Mountain and founder of TNA." Jeff asked.

Jessica rolled her eyes and answered, "No, I never have."

"Then it's your lucky day." Jeff said.

Jeff kissed her cheek and whispered something in her ear. He then helped her out of the ring and back to her seat. Jeff only reminded her about later on. Jeff left and headed to the back.

The show continued on like nothing happened. Jessica just knew the show was coming to an end when the Main Event Mafia's music started and they all walked down the ramp. Kurt told Scott to grab Jessica and bring her into the ring.

"Be careful with her." Kevin said.

Scott set her down and Kurt started talking smack about Jeff and calling him out. Jeff's music started and he walked out. He walked down and cautiously got into the ring. Jessica walked over to him and he put her behind him so he was between her and Kurt.

"Go on get out and start backstage." Jeff said.

Jessica carefully got out and started up but stopped. She just watched what was going on in the ring. Next thing Jessica knew, MMG came out and forced her halfway up the ramp.

"Not so rough, Chris." Jessica whispered.

"Sorry but you have to get out of here." Chris whispered back.

"I know but I don't want to." Jessica whispered.

"Jess, we are to get you back to the office no matter what." Alex whispered to her.

"Who told you that?" Jessica asked.

"The man in the ring." Chris answered.

If Jeff wanted her backstage and out of the way she wouldn't argue with him. But Jessica had a plan of her own and no one was gonna like it. Jessica let MMG walk her backstage and to Jeff's office. MMG left and Jessica started working on her plan. First she wrote Jeff a note and left it where he could find it. Then Jessica left the office and headed out of the arena.

"Where are you going." Christy asked.

"Don't worry about it and if Jeff asks you don't know anything." Jessica answered.

"I won't lie Jess, if you're in trouble he's got a right to know." Christy said.

"I don't want you to lie. I didn't tell you where I'm headed and I'm not in trouble." Jessica replied.

Jessica walked out of the arena and to her car. She got in and followed through with her plan. She first needed to head home to change out of the dress she had on for something different. Then she would fix something special just for Jeff and herself. She knew the second he saw the note, he'd be on his way. He may be a little angry with her for leaving, but would forgive her.
