Hello everyone,
Here is another chapter for you. We are almost done with this storyline and moving on to the next one for this story.
Thank you for the reviews. I appreciate them all.
Enjoy.
Chapter Thirteen:
Jeff heads to his hotel room to rest for tomorrow. They are starting the new storyline with just him against Lita and Edge on Smackdown. He opens the door and lights to see his brother on his bed.
"Matt you scared me. I thought you left for North Carolina already." He holds his chest.
"I was going, but something caught my attention." Matt stands up.
"Oh what happen?" Jeff doesn't think that it has to do with him.
"I have a feeling that you did the Whisper of the Wind on me on purpose." He walks towards his brother.
"What do you mean?" He gulps.
"I mean that you want to save Lita besides her being a woman." He walks around Jeff making him nervous.
"Of course there is another reason. Remember we made a bet with Edge. I have to get Lita to fall for me by Summerslam." He offers hoping it gets him off his case.
"Yeah I remember. So you saving her and me being fired is part of the plan?" He questions almost buying his excuse.
"Of course it is. I need Lita to trust me. What better way is to save her from you? Now that I have her trust, I can use it to make her fall for me."
"How about me getting fired, is that part of the plan too?" Matt inquires thinking this all legit.
"It is to make it seem to Edge that he is winning. If he thinks you are out of the picture then he thinks he has won already. He doesn't expect me to do it by myself." He explains, even though he is.
"Oh well you could need the evidence I've collected. It is mostly sound bites that you can use to get Lita to fall for you." He goes to his bag to get the tapes.
"Great, we are going catch him by surprise at Summerslam." Jeff grins taking the tapes from him.
"I am proud of you little brother. I thought you did what you did because you like her." Matt laughs as it the silliest think he has ever heard.
"Why would you think that?" Jeff nervous on maybe him knows the truth.
"It is just I saw you with Lita backstage. I saw you two talking and she kissed your cheek. You felt your cheek like you like it. I was mad that you would actually fall for her instead of the other way around. Now I get that it is just to trick her and it worked. She is going to be so surprise at Summerslam." Matt is happy that Lita will finally get what is coming to her.
"Yeah, that was part of the plan." He is relieved that it is only that part he knows. "Did anyone else see it too?" Jeff asks seriously not wanting everyone to know.
"I don't man. I wasn't paying attention to my surroundings."
"Okay, thanks." He hugs his older brother.
"You're welcome. I will be watching." Matt leaves to catch his flight. Jeff lays on his bed overwhelmed with everything.
Lita is on her way to the hotel until Edge stops her.
"What do you want Edge?" She says trying to move out of his way.
"I just want to give you a message to your boyfriend." He smirks.
She gulps on if he knows. "What are you talking about?"
"I saw you with Jeff. You were all cute with him giving him a kiss on the cheek." He reveals to her.
"I was thanking him for saving me." She explains. "He actually did what is right and helped me."
"So when I called before he wasn't the one who answered." He asks.
"What are you talking about? I need this right now." Lita confused.
"I am talking about you cheating on with another guy. I saw you at the hotel front as you pecked another man. I even heard a guy answer your cell phone. You even said 'hang up and come to bed'. Who is he, Lita? Is it Jeff you have being screwing behind my back?" He yells out.
This gets Lita streamed. "First, you don't ever talk to me like that again. Second, yes I do have a new man in my life. He is a man who treats me with respect. He is a better man than you. Lastly, we are done, so you don't have permission to know my life. After this storyline, I don't want to talk to you again." She walks away.
Edge is astonished at Lita's confidence. He didn't know that she had that in her. However, she didn't answer his question if it is Jeff who she is screwing. This intrigues him that the mystery man and Jeff could be the same person.
Lita checks into her hotel room to find a bouquet of red roses on the bed. She checks the note. 'Meet me in Room 472.' –Mystery Man. She smells the roses before she gets dressed or undressed for the activity. After her confrontation with Edge, she needs his comfort.
She knocks on the door in just a bathrobe. The door is answered after the first knock. As she enters, all she sees is candles lit all over the room. She awes at the effort he put into it; very romantic. She starts to walk ahead until the mystery man wraps his arms around her.
"Hello there sexy. I have been here waiting for you." He whispers in her ear. This makes her blush as they head towards the bed. There is a mirror to her left, across their path, as she sees he is completely naked expose for her to see. However, she can't see his face because it hidden by her neck.
"Someone is ready for me." She feels, for the first time, his naked body.
"I want to show you that I do love you. I may not be ready to tell you who I am, but I want to show you everything else." He starts to kiss her neck.
"Well I love you too. I have a surprise for you." She unhooks his arms as she unravels her robe. The mystery guy gulps to see her naked body. She blows some of the candles out to still create the illusion of mystery. This time she likes the mystery of who he is. "Come here baby." She brings him close. Lita pushes him onto the bed as they make love again.
"Just wait a week baby." He tells her as he pierces inside of her again.
"I can't wait." She kisses him before he starts to move in and out.
Smackdown:
Edge comes out with Lita of course to confront Jeff. He has a plan to expose who they mystery man is. "Hello everyone, I have come out here to expose a secret. I have figured out who the mystery man is." Lita is surprise as this is not part of the promo. "Now the mystery man has a minute to come out here before I expose him." He warns as Lita is nervous.
The mystery man comes out to the Smackdown theme song. He grabs a microphone to have a conversation with Edge. "What do you want, Edge? What is your obsession with me?" He questions as he winks at Lita.
"I want to expose you. I want everyone, including Lita, to know who you really are. After reviewing everything that has happen, I've notice something." He grins at Lita who has a scared expression for her man.
"And what is that?" He is still very confident on keeping his identity.
"First, I want to ask you, are you friends with Jeff Hardy?"
"Yes I am, but I am friends with a lot of people." He responds perfectly.
"So you wouldn't mind me bringing him out?" Edge smirks knowing he got him.
"Nope, bring him out."
"Okay, Jeff, please come out here." Edge invites.
Jeff comes out to his entrance music. However, he doesn't come out alone Stephanie is with him. "Edge, you seem to have your memory loose. I told you that the mystery man will reveal himself in a week at Summerslam." She restated to him never liking to repeat herself.
"What do you have on her, Jeff that she lets your friend come here?" He yells at Jeff with both of them entering the ring.
"He has nothing on me, Edge. I need you to get ready for your match. It will be a handicap match agains Jeff and the mystery guy next." She announces really getting tired of Edge's actions.
The match starts with the mystery guy square off against Edge. Lita is sitting on a chair with Stephanie beside her. Edge gets the upper hand as the mystery guy is a bit rusty. Not being in the ring for awhile. Finally Jeff gets a tag when the mystery guy chick kicks Edge in the temple. They go back and forth before Jeff sets him up for the Swanton Bomb. They mystery man holds Edge in place to pick up the victory. Lita gets into the ring with a microphone to kiss the mystery guy to everyone's astonishment.
"Edge we are done. I have my new man now. When he finally reveals himself, we will leave you in the dust." She drops the microphone. They all walk off as Edge is in the ring furious.
Backstage:
Stephanie calls Jeff and the mystery guy into her office.
"You two need to expose yourself before Lita does anything else." She orders them not expecting Lita to break off from Edge so soon.
"Sorry Stephanie, I didn't know she would kiss me." The mystery guy says.
"Well you both need to stay clear of her until Summerslam. I don't want her to be too hurt. Can you two do that?" She orders. They nod. "Dismiss." Stephanie shoos them off.
Lita is behind the door having heard what Stephanie said. She walks to the Women's Locker room in tears.
Summerslam:
Today is the event where they mystery man will get revealed. Lita enters the arena all sad and upset. Her hood is up as she rolls her suitcase to her personal room. Stephanie called her this morning to inform her that she will have a private room. To what she overheard, the mystery guy and Jeff both kept their word to Stephanie. Even when she calls the mystery man, he won't pick up.
Jeff enters the arena nervous on how everything will go. He knows it kills they mystery guy to stay away from Lita.
"Jeff, Stephanie wants you in her office." One of the stage hands tells him. He sulks as he heads that way.
"Stephanie you wanted to see me." Jeff enters the office.
"Yes, please take a seat."
The door opens again to have Lita enter. "Hello Stephanie, you-" She looks to see Jeff seated. "Oh, I can come back later."
"Wait Lita, I need the both of you here." She directs her.
"Sure." Lita takes the chair and moves it away from Jeff.
Stephanie feels bad for all three of them. "So I called both of you here to talk about the revelation today. As you know the mystery guy will reveal himself tonight." She restates.
"Yah, what are we doing for that?" Lita questions.
"That is why I brought you two in here. There is no script for this promo. Everything is up to your guys to deliver." She offers. They are both surprise that she would give them free reign.
"Thank you Stephanie." Jeff thanks her for the opportunity.
"You're welcome. Go entertain the crowd." She advises.
"Umm Jeff." Lita taps his shoulder when they are in the hallway.
"Yes Lita, what do you want?" He looks over to see her upset.
"I just want to ask how the mystery man is doing. He is not returning my phone calls." She whispers very sad.
"He is doing well. He is missing his girl." Jeff smiles as it makes Lita smile as well. "He was given an order, so he has to follow it. There is one thing, a message he wants to give to you." Jeff discloses.
"What is it?" Jeff goes up to her to give her a peck on the lips. "What are you doing?" She pushes him away.
"That is the message. He wanted me to kiss you. It was supposes to be a longer kiss, but I feel awkward giving the kiss." He rubs his neck.
"What kind of kiss did he want to give me?" She inquires recognizing the peck.
"I don't know. I feel awkward even talking about this. How about you ask him about it later." He continues to rub his neck.
"No, you can come to my dressing room to let me figure out the kiss." She flirts.
"Sorry Lita, the mystery guy is waiting for me." Jeff excuses.
"Come on Jeff." She guides him to her private room. When they get inside the room, Lita leads him into the room before locking the door.
"Why did you-" Jeff is interrupted by Lita's lips on his.
