Chapter 35
A few months later…
Jeff looked over at Jordan as they were sitting in the dressing room at the next taping of RAW. Jeff could tell that she was worried about the script that he was going to be dealing with, especially considering everything that had happened in the past few months. Ever since finding out Jordan was pregnant and all the things that went down with her family and the cops in that one city, their lives had been nothing but hectic and stressful. Jordan was rubbing her swollen belly and Jeff let a smile appear on his face as he walked over and knelt in front of her, placing his own hand on her swollen belly.
"You know, we still need a name." Jeff reminded her as his eyes met hers.
"Yes, I know this." Jordan said nodding as she looked at the baby name book that they had been reading and going through for a while. They had yet to find out if it was a boy or a girl, and not because the doctor couldn't see, but because they weren't sure yet if they wanted to know. So they had started making a list of both boys names and girls names, and Jeff was getting anxious for them to hurry up and choose one.
"I think it's about time we give in and find out what we are having. I think it would make the whole baby name thing easier as well as give us a clue on what we should decorate the nursery in our new house to look like." Jeff said softly. Jordan and Jeff had recently bought a new house and the whole thing was being remolded to look the way Jordan really wanted it to look. They were putting in hardwood floors in certain areas, while brand new carpet in other areas. The backyard was being landscaped the right way, the pool was being put in and a fence built around it to protect the baby once it was old to walk. They had a swing set and a sandbox that were going to be installed, a patio and a lawn. The whole inside was being painted, and that included the nursery, as soon as they choose a color. The nursery was going to be painted last.
The house was getting all new furniture that was going to be delivered and installed throughout the house when the place was ready for furniture. The kitchen was also being remolded and all new appliances were being put in. They had an island with granite countertops on the island and all over the kitchen. The cupboards were being redone and everything else was being done the right way.
"I guess you're right." Jordan said nodding her head. "I have an appointment tomorrow morning." Jordan informed him and Jeff smiled, getting even more excited over the thought that they would soon know whether they were having a son or a daughter.
Jordan was nervous as she stared at the monitor, knowing that Jeff was getting ready to wrestle his match. Jordan hadn't told Jeff but she had heard rumors and things going around the backstage area that something was going to happen to one of the Team Extreme members. Jordan wasn't sure who it was going to be, and the thought that it might be Matt or Jeff that would be hurt or something worse, was really stressing her out and making her sweat. She rubbed her belly as the baby started kicking her, sensing her distress as she couldn't take her eyes away from the monitor that was showing the match as it started. Jeff was currently wrestling against Shamus, which was making her really nervous.
"Come on Jeff, please be careful." She whispered to herself, rubbing her belly and wondering if Matt was keeping an eye on things in case his baby brother needed him out there.
Jordan was so into the match and so worried about Jeff's safety that she hadn't even thought that she was still considered a member of Team Extreme, despite the fact that she only left the dressing room if they were doing an interview and she only went to the ring when they did intro's or in the ring commentary. Occasionally she was allowed to sit ring side with King and help with comments on whatever match was going on in front of her, but she didn't wrestle or get physical at all, she wouldn't do that pregnant. That was the reason she wasn't on guard for anyone to come into the dressing room to go after her, it never occurred to her that she was the member they were talking about backstage.
Suddenly she felt a blow to her head and then she knew no more.
Jeff was nearly jumping off the walls as he walked with his brother and Jillian back towards the Team Extreme dressing room. He had just wiped the ring floor with Shamus, it was one of his best matches yet and all because he couldn't wait until tomorrow's appointment where he and Jordan were going to finally find out what the sex of their baby was. Matt and Jillian were also excited, and they were talking about how after the appointment they could go pick out things for the baby. Jeff knew Matt was excited about becoming an uncle and that Jillian was excited to be an honorary aunt. They figured they could go and pick out the colors for the nursery, and anything to decorate the walls with it. They would pick out the main furniture and stuff and then the guys would break off and go their own way while the women could shop for clothes and toys and anything else that they would want to get. They weren't going to get a ton of things, mainly because Jordan would still get a baby shower, something Jillian said she wanted to be responsible to throw. Jeff knew Jordan was touched that the diva was so into throwing a baby shower for her, it was something that made her feel really happy and relieved.
"Do you think Jordan saw my win?" Jeff asked them, knowing his wife would still check him over for injuries, like she did after every single match. Jeff knew it was driving her nuts to not be allowed to be ringside for his matches and to not be allowed to wrestle at all, it was really causing her to become tense.
"She always watches your matches." Jillian said with a grin.
The three members of the team entered the dressing room, and stopped dead in their tracks. Jordan was nowhere to be seen, but all her things were there, including her shoes and purse. They also noticed it was apparent something had happened in there, there was blood on the carpet and it looked like someone had come in and jumped Jordan and then took off. They looked around, hoping she had just skinned her knee or something. They couldn't find her anywhere in the dressing room and since her cell was inside her purse, there was no way to track her. Jillian ran out to get the people in charge and they looked all over, but she had not left and no one saw her. The whole arena was searched but there was no sign of Jordan Hardy anywhere.
"Where is my wife?" Jeff whispered shakily. "Who would hurt my wife?" He looked around to everyone, hoping for an answer but there was no one around that could answer that question.
They called the police and because Jordan was pregnant and there was blood in the dressing room and all her things were left there, a missing persons report was taken and the police assured Jeff she had probably just walked off to take a walk or maybe headed back to the hotel and forgot her purse. The hotel was checked but there was still no sign of Jordan. The cops put an APB out on her and the search was on, now all anyone could do was wait and hope that she turned up, alive and unharmed.
