Chapter 35;
Matt’s POV;
I had heard the front doorbell ringing as I had lay down on my bed ready to give in to the sleep and let it drag away this God awful day with it.
Getting up, I moved out to the hallway where Jeff and Cameron were stood talking to the police officers who had just closed the door behind them.
“We believe it was started intentionally. Mr Hardy there was someone in your house…and unfortunately they didn’t make it out,” The taller of the 2 officers informed my brother and his girl.
Cameron gasped as Jeff seemed to crumble once again. I quickly moved forward and placed a hand on my brother’s shoulder as I wrapped my arm around Cameron pulling her close to me.
“There shouldn’t have been anyone in the house! It was empty save for Jeff’s dog,” I said looking at the officer.
“Obviously the body is pretty badly burned, but we are confident that we will be able to identify them through dental records,” The officer informed me. “Is there anyone who you can think of that would do this?”
Jeff looked at Cameron at the same time as I looked at her, which in turn caused the 2 men in front of us to look at her also.
Cameron looked from me to Jeff and we both nodded our heads, she sighed and informed the officers to follow her in to the living room as I offered to make coffee. This was going to be a long day and we would all need something to get through it.
Jeff followed me in to the kitchen and watched me as I moved around the kitchen.
”What?” I asked filling the kettle and placing it in to its rack then turning it on.
“You think it was Steven?” He asked and I could feel my heart returning to normal. Whenever Jeff looked at me like this I was always worried that he had figured out how I felt about Cameron; his girlfriend.
Mentally slapping myself for letting myself fall for the girl who was with my brother but I couldn’t help the way I felt about her, she was just this amazing woman who made everyone around her feel calm and collected. It wasn’t hard to see why I had fallen for her.
“I think it is a very strong possibility,” I admitted placing sugar in the right mugs then milk in to everyone’s except for Jeff and Cameron’s.
“Damn it!” He growled angrily. “Why can’t he just let her go? Why can’t he just let her live her life the way she wants? Why can’t he just accept that they are over?”
“Because Cam is right…he is unhinged Jeff; he doesn’t think like we all do! He can’t see that when she says she doesn’t want to be with him she means it. To him she is still his property…”
”She was never his property!” He growled as he began pacing determinedly. “Cameron isn’t…she doesn’t belong to anyone…not even me! Why can’t he see that?”
I knew this had to be frustrating for him; especially when Jeff didn’t think like most people, when he was with someone he loved them whole heartedly but he didn’t control people; preferring the people in his life to be their own person. It was just the way my little brother was and I knew that Cam appreciated it; after everything that she had been through I knew it must feel like a breath of fresh hair for her.
THE FOLLOWING DAY;
High Ridge; Missouri;
Randy’s POV;
I knew that I had done the wrong thing from the minute that Jeff had gotten Cameron out of the ring that night I humiliated her 2 months or so ago.
From the minute that I had laid eyes on Cameron I had been drowning in her beauty. The thought of her being my manager had just built the thoughts that maybe one day we could be together.
When I had seen her hanging out with the Hardy boys I had seen the attraction to Jeff and vice versa. And somehow I had seen him as being the one in my way of having the girl I wanted so when I couldn’t find anything on her with the name that she had given me, I had dug around and found out about her past.
My stupid ego had caused me to loose any chance of having her in my life at all when I had gotten in touch with Steven and placed him in front of her. Now she couldn’t even bare to talk to me.
Turning on my computer, I loaded up the news page and saw an alert with Jeff Hardy’s name on it. Please God no; don’t have let anything happened to him at the hands of Steven! I wasn’t the type of person who dealt with feeling remorse but Cameron had me feelings that were completely new to me.
WWE star Jeff Hardy's home in Cameron, North Carolina burned to the ground last night. He lost all his possessions, and his dog perished in the blaze.
According to legendary wrestling commentator Jim Ross' website, Hardy and his girlfriend were not home at the time. Jeff's brother, Matt, saw smoke coming from the home, but was too late to do anything about it. Jeff lived in a double-wide trailer.
The WWE has not yet released a statement.
Without thought I picked up my phone and dialed Cameron’s number and began pacing while I waited for her to answer.
“Come on Cameron!” I muttered to myself as I moved in to the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge.
“Hello?” Her sweet soft voice answered but it was masked with tears and an unhappiness that I knew I was the cause of.
“Cam?”
“Randy?” She asked as the sound of coughing and retching filtered down the line.
“Yeah it’s me…”
”What do you want?” She chocked but the coughing and retching wasn’t coming from her; it was too deep…Jeff?
I knew that I wasn’t going to get a warm welcome when I called but I had to know that she was ok; I had to know that the article had been right and she and Jeff hadn’t been in the fire.
“I just heard the news and I wanted to check how you are,” I said softly.
“How do you think I am?” She demanded angrily. “Why are you calling me?”
“I-I…”
”Look I don’t understand why you are calling me; I don’t know if you think that somehow we are friends or whatever but we’re not ok? You burned me…you brought that monster back in to my life and I can’t just forget about that Randy…I just can’t!” She said as the retching and coughing continued.
“Is that Jeff?” I asked blocking out what she had just said as the words burned through me like a hot prod marking me; telling me that I had ruined any chance of having her as my friend.
“Yeah he’s sick…”
”Sick?”
”Yeah!” She replied in disbelief. “He has lost his home; he lost Jack and everything that he has worked so hard for…so you can understand why he is sick surely,”
“I’m sorry I didn’t…”
”Didn’t what? Think? No you didn’t but that seems to be something that you are good at!” She spat at me angrily. “I can’t…I’m going to go, I need to look after Jeff!”
“Sure!” I sighed. I never thought that I was going to get a warm reception but I was sure as hell going to make sure that I made it up to her any way that I could. “For what it’s worth…I’m sorry!”
“Whatever!” She replied and hung up leaving the dial tone ringing in my ear yet again.
Hanging up, I placed my phone on the table and thought about how I could maybe at least try to make this better but as of yet nothing was making much sense in my head as I thought about what I had done.
I couldn’t blame her for being mad at me; hell I would have shot me down in flames if I were her. They had lost everything and why? Because I couldn’t handle loosing!
Cameron, North Carolina;
Cameron’s POV;
Jeff was so stressed that he was making himself ill, sickness had seemed to take over his body from the minute that he had heard that someone had been in the house as it burned to the ground.
I knew that he was worried that it had been someone he knew, or a fan had somehow managed to get inside his home. I could feel my own panic at the thought of that but I was trying to remain strong for him, to help him through this because as much as I felt like I had lost something too; it was in actual fact Jeff’s house and his stuff that he had lost.
But Jeff was such a huge part of me that I felt his loss weighing me down too, but I had Matt, he has been great since this whole thing. My big brother as he had dubbed himself had drove over to the house yesterday after the police had been, packed up some of CT’s things and taken him back to his house where he said we could stay for as long as we needed.
Which of course gave Shifty and Amber the time alone that they needed; their relationship was still relatively new, which meant that it was all about sex and spending as much time together as possible and I hated invading on that.
I think that the time had come that I began looking for somewhere on my own for me and CT. But for now with the uncertainty of where Steven was, being in Matt’s house, secluded and surrounded by the private grounds I felt safe and out of harms reach.
“What…did-he-want?” Jeff panted looking up at me as I pulled his hair from his handsome features.
“Just to say sorry,” I whispered reaching my free hand to the washbasin and began to pour some cold water in to it.
“Sorry!?” He asked in disbelief before turning back to the toilet where he continued to empty the entire contents of his stomach in to it.
“Mmhmm! Seems to be a bit late in the fucking game for sorry if you ask me,” I ranted angrily feeling my blood boil at Randy’s nerve of calling me.
“I’m sorry…ba-baby!” He stuttered as the retching began to subside again while I placed a flannel in to the cold water and placed it to the back of his neck.
“What are you sorry for?” I asked confused.
“Not being able to su…”
”Will you stop!?” I said brushing the hair from his face as I pressed the cold flannel harder against his neck to cool him down. “After all the times that you have supported me and been there holding my hair back when I have been sick at the thought of Steven being back…this is the least I can do! So I want you to push the thought of not supporting me to the back of your head ok?”
“Y-You’re…the…be-best!” He stuttered as a fresh string of retching started up again; making his body almost convulse uncontrollably.
“Mmm so I’ve been told,” I smiled as he glanced up at me.
I was more than worried about him; his eyes had lost their natural sexy sparkle, his face was so white that it was almost grey in color, he was loosing weight rapidly at the amount he was being sick; it was almost like he couldn’t keep anything done, his long dark multi colored hair was limp and lifeless as he seemed to sink further and further in to this funk.
Jeff’s POV;
I couldn’t stop the smile from coming to my face at her words; it was good to hear her taking a compliment for a change rather than denying what I was complimenting her for.
The minute the smile formed on my face; I instantly felt guilty about it. Someone had died in my house as it burned, someone had been inside and I was more than worried that somehow a fan had managed to get inside; it wouldn’t have been the first time.
Then at the same time, I was grateful that it hadn’t been Ron, CT and me in that fire, there was no way that we would be here if it had. There was no getting out of that fire: it was just too fierce and wild.
“Oooh…and-mod-modest too,” I chuckled painfully as my stomach twisted in knots and made the retching turn more violent in the process.
“I try my best handsome,” She smiled placing her lips to my cheek as she held the cold flannel behind my neck, which I had to admit was cooling down the temperature that seemed to run through me.
“I-I…I-lo-love-y-you…R-Ron!” I stumbled as finally the retching stopped and I slumped to the floor of the ensuite that was in our room.
I had to admit that Matt had been great; without thought he had offered us his home, and had gone to collect CT who loved it at his Uncle Matt’s house; he had room to run around and Cameron didn’t seem to worry so much about him being outside alone here.
“I love you too baby,” Ron whispered as she helped me to my feet.
Ushering me slowly to the bedroom and in to the bed where I had pretty much spent the past day.
“S-stay…w-with me!?” I pleaded grabbing her hand with more strength than I thought I possessed. “Just…u-until I-I…f-fall asleep!”
“You got it baby,” She smiled as she climbed on to the bed with me and wrapped me up in to her amazingly warm and comforting embrace.
Resting my head against her chest, I wrapped my own arms around her and held her as close to me as possible. I didn’t know how long it would take the police to get an ID on the body that had been found in my house but I just wished that I could get some kind of closure on it already.
“I-I…I-I’m sorry that I h-haven’t b-been much c-company…”
”Stop it Jeffrey Nero Hardy!” She scolded me and it wasn’t hard to tell that she was a Mother from the tone in her voice. Gently she pulled my head back from her chest. “I don’t want to hear that from you ok? You have just lost everything…you lost…J-Jack…” Instantly her own voice began to break. “I don’t expect you to be the man that…just don’t feel like you have to apologize to me ok?”
Nodding my head, I let it fall back against her chest and listened to the steady calming beat of her heart and slowly could feel my eyes closing; as sleep circled around me; slowly closing in until I was slipping slowly out of this nightmare that I had been forced in to.
Just as the sleep was getting ready to grip me completely; a knock at the bedroom door tore through it and forced me back in to reality where I didn’t want to be for now.
“Yeah?” Ron said softly as my head lifted from her chest and caused her to talk normally. “Come in,”
”Hey kids,” Matt said pushing the door open slightly. “Are you decent?”
”Of course,” Ron giggled softly as the smile formed in the corners of my mouth.
“The police are downstairs; they want to talk to you Jeff,” My big brother informed us.
“Ok,” I sighed releasing myself reluctantly from my girls embrace and shakily got to my feet.
Because of all the sickness I didn’t have anything in my system so normal and natural movements seemed to be more of an effort. Ron must have sensed it as she slid off the bed next to me and supported me as we moved out of the bedroom towards the stairs.
Walking in to the living room leaning on Ron we both saw the same police officers from the previous morning as they looked up at us and stood to their feet.
“Miss Reid, Mr Hardy we have the results from the dental records,” The taller of the 2 officers said softly.
”Yes?” Ron asked looking at them cautiously as both of them seemed to focus on her. “Who was it?”

Chapter 36;
AN HOUR LATER;
Cameron’s POV;
Jeff wrapped me up in to his arms as Matt showed the police to the door after they had delivered the news, they had asked me a bunch of questions; contact details, next of kin that kind of questions that I had answered to the best of my ability.
Caving in to his solid, powerful embrace, I clung to him tightly as he gently ran his hand through my hair whispering softly in to my ear.
“I-I…I need to talk t-to CT…w-where is h-he?” I asked feeling the shock setting in.
“He’s out back; I’ll go get him honey!” Matt said sympathetically as he moved through the living room towards the kitchen.
“T-Thanks M-Mat-Mattitude,” I said trying to get my head around what the police officers had just told me.
“Do you want me to stay beautiful?” Jeff asked ushering me in to the sofa and sitting next to me.
“I-I…I-I d-don’t think I can do it if you’re here babe…I’m sorry!”
“No sorry’s remember,” He whispered supportively as he kissed my forehead and slowly stood to his feet just as CT came rushing in to the living room from the kitchen.
“Mom what’s wrong? Uncle Matt said you need to talk to me,” He said stopping as Jeff ruffled his hair softly before heading out to the kitchen where Matt was making a noise of moving around.
“Yeah baby, I need to talk to you…come sit next to me,” I said patting the space next to me, where Jeff had just been sat.
Turning my man smiled at me before disappearing out of view, leaving me alone with CT as I requested. Turning my attention to CT who was looking at me expectantly.
How was I meant to do this?
How would CT take it?
Taking a deep breath I reached for my son’s hand and watched him closely as I prepared to deliver the news.
Jeff’s POV;
Standing in the kitchen I watched Matt busying himself tidying up the breakfast bowls and mugs from his breakfast with CT.
Turning he looked at me as I listened from where I was stood. It wasn’t that I wanted to intrude on the moment that Mother and son were having, I just wanted to make sure that Ron was ok. It had been a huge blow to her; I knew that; I had seen it in her eyes, and the way her body had all but crumbled.
“CT you know that Jeff’s house burned down right?” She started her voice soft and even.
Flashes of my home burning, the smoke rising high in the air seemed to blink before my eyes taking me back 2 nights to when I had lost everything in one fell swoop.
“Yeah I know,” CT replied sounding confused.
“Well the police found that there was someone inside the house…”
”Inside? But that would mean that…”
”They died yes,” Ron said softly. “The only way they were able to ID the person was by dental records,”
“Do they know who it was? It wasn’t someone we know was it?” CT asked as his voice shock.
“I am afraid it was baby…”
”Who?” He asked his Mom desperately as Matt stepped up next to me and listened with me.
“It was…Ste…it was your Dad baby,” She said softly and instantly I could hear CT gasp and everything turned quiet.
Matt and I stood there for a few moments listening to the silence eclipse everything in the house.
“It’s really over?” CT asked hopefully causing Matt and I to both smile.
“Yeah baby it’s really over,” Ron replied.
“Can I go back to school now?” CT asked being a typical 10 year old it was more important to be with his friends than grieve for his Dad.
“I…uhm I don’t see why not!” Ron replied obviously unprepared for her son’s reaction.
“Awesome! And does this mean that Jeff is really my Dad now?”
Matt chuckled softly as he placed his hand on my shoulder and moving back to cleaning up the kitchen leaving me stood here listening as Cameron stumbled over what the say to her boy.
I didn’t want her stumbling like that, so I slowly stepped out from where I was stood and looked at CT wrapped up in his Mom’s arms who was clinging to him tightly, her eyes shining with tears.
”If you’ll have me big man,” I said standing next to the sofa where they were sat.
“I want you to be my Dad; I wish you really were my Dad but now that he is really gone then I am more than happy to pretend that you are my Dad,” CT looked up at me and removed himself from Ron’s embrace and moved to me and hugged me so tight that I swore he crushed bone.
“Well I am more than happy to be kiddo; but would you mind if I talked to your Mom for a little bit?” I asked him as a thought popped in to my head.
”Sure! Can I go back outside to play with Lucas?” CT asked looking at his Mom expectantly.
“Sure baby…don’t go too far,” Ron told him as I took the seat where he had been sat moments earlier.
Nodding his head he raced off out of the house, happy and carefree which hadn’t been something that he had been able to be with Steven lurking in the shadows. My eyes landed on my girl; my Marvel t-shirt drowning her frame and the skin tight faded and ripped jeans accenting her long legs; her dark hair pulled in to a messy bun with strands hanging out of it her beautiful face devoid of make up; hands down she was still the most beautiful woman I had ever seen.
“What did you want to talk to me about then?” She asked me resting her hand on my leg and looking deep in to my eyes.
“I was just thinking…me and you…”
”Yes?” She asked suspiciously as her eyes watched me closely.
“What we have…?”
”Are you trying to tell me that you don’t want me…?”
”What? No! No way baby; I love you more than I ever did; that was never…is never going to be a question ok?” I pressed firmly and she nodded her head. “What I am trying to say is that…this is forever right?”
“For me yeah,” She admitted nodding her head.
“Me too and I was thinking that what if…I mean say no if you don’t think that this is a good idea,” I started as the front doorbell rang again. “God damn it,”
”I’ll get it!” Matt said moving through to the hallway and pulling the door open to reveal Amber and Shifty stood waiting to be let in.
“We’ll talk about this later ok?” I whispered as her brother and best friend came rushing in to the living room.
We had told Matt to tell them to just stay away yesterday because we needed to get our heads straight after what had happened. It wasn’t that we wanted to push them away but we needed time to assess what had happened and what we were going to do.
It had been harder when we hadn’t known who had caused the fire but when the police officers told us that the dead body had been Steven they had said that he had, had a Molotov cocktail bottle in his hands and it had been a safe bet that he had caused the fire.
So now we knew who had done it and why, it was that little bit easier to deal with especially for me knowing that it hadn’t been someone close to me or a fan that had gotten in to the house. I glanced up as Shannon and Shane came crashing through the front door behind Amber and Shifty. Great there would be no time to talk to Cameron until later.
Amber’s POV;
Seeing my best friend sat on the sofa with her man, I felt the relief wash over me; she was ok, they were both ok…both looked tired but at least they were still alive, I dreaded to think what would have happened had they stayed at Jeff’s as planned that night.
I made to go to her but Shannon and Shane beat me to the post and bombarded both Jeff and Cameron in to a tight death defying hug that had my friends laughing as they struggled to remove themselves from the embrace from both huge men.
“Thank God you’re ok,” Shan said kissing Cameron on the head. “Oh hey Jeff,” He smiled devilishly causing Cameron to laugh and it seemed that she was calmer and more relaxed than she had been in weeks.
“Funny reject!” Jeff chuckled as he flipped his friend the bird.
”Hey ouch! I’m hurt,” Shannon said squeezing in between the 2 of them and wrapping his arm around Cameron who fell in to his embrace while looking at me and smiling.
Shifty wrapped his arm around my neck and kissed my head softly before disappearing in to the kitchen with Shane to talk to Matt probably to find out how they were really doing.
Shannon reached his hand for me and pulled me down on to his lap so that I was facing my best friend, then he turned his attention to Jeff and engaged him in conversation leaving me to talk to my friend.
”How you holding up sweetie?” I asked reaching for her hand and giving her an extra squeeze as she smiled at me.
”I’m good…really good! I have something that I need to talk to you about though,” She said removing herself from Shannon’s embrace and standing up.
”You’re leaving us!?” Shannon asked looking up as I stood to my feet.
“Mmhmm! I need to talk to Amber,” Cameron said leaning down and kissing his cheek. “Will that keep you going?”
“Awe damn it Skittles you got some major competition on your hands,” Shannon smiled at his friend who slapped his arm and groaned as Cameron turned her attention to her man and kissed him fully on the lips. “I want one of those!” Shannon complained.
I swear my friend could cheer up the most depressed person on the planet; he was full of energy and he seemed to just get more and more full of life every time I saw him.
“So not going to happen,” Cam smiled as she moved away from her man and friend leading me in to the kitchen where Matt, Shane and Shifty were stood talking about wrestling, which I instantly recognized wasn’t what they had been talking about really. “Wow you guys are smooth,” Cam giggled softly turning on the kettle.
”What?” Matt asked innocently.
“I know that you guys were talking about what has happened,”
”Cam we have much better things to talk about than you,” Shifty ribbed his little sister as he reached for her and pulled her close; kissing her head softly.
Ever since we had gotten together, the things I had been feeling for my best friends brother had seemed to just intensify to the point where I felt like I was constantly distracted and there seemed to be nothing I could do to stop it from happening.
Even when Leland and I had first gotten together; it hadn’t been as passionate or as intense as it was with Seth. My eyes moved over his frame and could feel my hunger for him building to the point where I felt my face flush with heat.
As if he sensed it he looked at me and smiled brightly causing my insides to turn to goo, my knees to turn wobbly and my heart to race off at twice it’s normal speed.
Cameron made us coffee and led me out on to the balcony where the hot tub was situated right at the patio doors, which she closed and handed me a cigarette.
“Steven is dead!” She blurted out.
”WHAT? How do you know that?” I asked lighting up and watching her closely; that would certainly explain her calm and collected posture.
“He uhm…he was the one who started the fire and he didn’t make it out!”
“Wow! Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy huh?” I couldn’t stop the venom seeping in to my voice.
That psycho had made my best friends life hell for most of her life and now that he wasn’t a problem anymore I couldn’t be happier for her. After all that he had done, all the things that he had done to her, she deserved the peace that it would now afford.
“You’re preaching to the choir honey,” She laughed softly as she sipped at her coffee and took a seat on the chairs that Matt had set out here around a large dining like table. “But enough of me and my drama; how are things with you and my big brother?”
“Never been better…I wanted to talk to you actually,”
”About?” She asked resting her feet on a free chair as I took the one next to her and leaned back staring out in to the woods that encompassed the property where CT was playing with Lucas. “You’re not getting bored of him already are you?” She giggled and it was good to hear that sound again.
“What? No are you kidding me?” I giggled softly turning to look at her and smiled. “I just wanted to ask what it was like with you and Jeff when you first got together.”
“What do you mean?” She asked confused.
“Well I mean with Shifty I feel like I am being completely consumed by what I am feeling for him…it’s intense and it’s more passionate than it ‘ever’ was with Leland,”
“Yeah that’s what it was like with Jeff and I; hell it’s still like that with us! It’s just so consuming that you feel like you’re loosing yourself completely but in a good way you know what I mean?”
“That’s it exactly, I feel like I can’t breathe when he isn’t near me, its like he has this power over me…”
”The best I can figure is that; that is how you know they are the right one you know what I mean?”
“I think so! I mean it hasn’t exactly been long…”
”But when it’s right; it’s right and there is nothing that you can do to fight it hon; I mean sure you can try and you can deny it all you want but you can’t make the feeling go away…at least that was how it was for me,” She admitted sipping at her drink again as she flicked her cigarette in to the ashtray that Matt had placed out here.
“I guess you’re right! But seriously you’re ok with us being together right?”
“Why wouldn’t I be? Honey I think that you are probably the best thing that has ever happened to my brother and I know that you guys are going to be together for a long time…hell anyone just needs to look at you to know that you are meant to be,”
“Thanks honey; that means a lot that we have your blessing, I mean I know how much Shifty cares about what you think,”
It was true, my man had explained how close he and Cameron had been growing up and that he now had her back in his life he wanted to get that relationship back on track.
”Well I care about what he thinks of me too, it’s just the way we are you know?”
I went to reply when the patio doors opened and the guys came piling out on to the decking; their presence piercing through the quiet and calm that Cameron and I had been enjoying by sitting out here.
My eyes found him almost automatically and I felt the familiar jolt of weakness raking through me as he moved towards me and sat down on to my lap and kissed me softly earning retching noises from the others as Jeff moved to Cameron and wrapped her up in to his arms.
I really don’t think that life could get much better than this moment right now.

Chapter 37
A FEW HOURS LATER;
Jeff’s POV;
Once our friends had heard the news of Steven being dead, they had suggested that we go out to celebrate but I wasn’t in any frame of mind or any state fit to go out clubbing but I had seen the excitement on Cameron’s face at the thought of having a night out, so I told her to go without me.
At first she had been reluctant to leave me; but I told her that me and CT would have fun together; just the 2 of us it had been a long time since it had been just me and him hanging out and I looked forward to it.
I looked at that boy as if he really was my own and the thought of spending the rest of my life with Ron and CT wasn’t as scary as I had thought it would be. Ron was everything that I had ever wanted in a woman; she was individual, she was spunky, she was firey and she didn’t take shit from anyone; least of all me or my brother or our friends.
Lying on the bed in my brother’s spare room; I watched Ron as she got changed in to her cloths for the night; a short black tighter than tight skirt that clung to her hips in a way that could distract the most concentrated male; a long black skirt was placed over the shorter one; with a slit up her right leg it was more like a sarong than a skirt but it went with the rest of her outfit. A black, figure hugging mid-riff top that accented her frame to the point where I wished that she would just stay in.
But I wasn’t the man who told his girlfriend what to do and it had been more than obvious that she had wanted to go out tonight and there was no way that I was going to stop her from having fun. After all the years of looking over her shoulder, and basically living in shadows; she was finally free and she had every right to enjoy that.
Black chunky heeled shoes adorned her feet and the ribbon style ties wrapped around her legs right up to her thighs, which seemed to just highlight her satin smooth flesh that felt so good wrapped around me.
Since the fire and loss of everything that I had owned; this was the first time I had felt a stirring for her but it was there and as always it was undeniable as I watched her teasing her hair until it was fuller than normal. Then she turned her attention to applying her eye make up; dark grey charcoal eyeliner masked and also highlighted her beautiful brown eyes that were looking at me through the mirror.
“What?” She asked reaching for her favorite perfume; Hypnotic Poison and I swore it fitted her personality perfectly because it always felt like I was hypnotized when I was around her.
“Do you have to go out?” I grumped softly knowing that I wanted her to stay but there was no way that I would make her stay when I knew how much she wanted to go out.
“If you want me to stay then…”
”As much as I want you to stay beautiful; you are going out and you are going to enjoy yourself,” I informed her firmly as she slowly stood to her full height and smiled at me.
“Do I look ok?” She asked me wrapping her arms around her waist self consciously.
“Are you kidding me? You look gorgeous baby girl,” I admitted honestly reaching my hand out for her. “But there was something that I wanted to talk to you about remember?” I asked as her face blushed from the compliment. I knew better than to push her to accept what I was saying; again after all the things that Steven had done to her it was hard for her to accept people saying nice things about her but given time I would make sure that she believed it.
“I remember,” She nodded her head as I pulled myself closer to her until my hands were holding on to her hips and I was drowning in her dark beautiful eyes.
“Well the thing is that I wanted…I have been thinking about you and me and the things that we could have…” I started as there came a thundering knock at the door.
”You good to go baby girl?” Matt’s voice filtered through the door.
“Damn it!” I muttered.
”Yeah big bear; I will be there in a few yeah?”
”Well hurry the cab is here, and the meter is running,” My brother offered before the sound of him heading downstairs filtered in to the room.
“I’m sorry baby but I really should go,” She said turning back to look at me and it was like I had completely forgotten what I wanted to talk to her about anyways.
“Ok we’ll talk when you come home if you’re sober,” I smiled patting her ass as she stood.
”I will be sober,” She replied wiggling her ass at me as she began to move to the door and pulled it open while throwing her handbag around her shoulder.
“Mmm we’ll see…you’re going out with my brother and Shan after all,” I chuckled and it was the first time that I had really laughed since I had lost everything and it felt good.
“I will be sober,” She informed me firmly as we descended the stairs and walked in to the living room where Matt was stood in front of the false fire place and had his hands stuffed in his pockets.
The minute we walked in to the room his eyes looked up from the computer game that CT was playing and I was more than certain that I could see a flash of hunger in his eyes as he looked at Ron.
What was that?
Was he in to my girl?
No he couldn’t be; Matt had never been in to any of the girls that I had dated. Sure he had gotten along with them but he had never been interested in them in any way other than his little brother’s girlfriend.
When he had taken to Ron and gotten along with her as well as he did; it had surprised me but that was down to Ron; and the woman that she had become now that she was away from her over zealous ex boyfriend.
Pushing the thoughts of my brother being in to my girl to the back of my head because it really was just ridiculous. I watched Ron move to CT’s side and kiss his head and when she got no response she ruffled his hair playfully.
“Corey Taylor Reid!” She said firmly causing her son to look up at her accusingly. “I am going; and I don’t think I need to remind you of the rules do I?”
“Go to bed when Jeff tells me, no back chat, be good and do everything that he tells me!” CT sighed reciting his Mother’s rules as if they were second nature but I knew that the boy knew he had it good.
Ron wasn’t an over protective Mother and asked very little of her son. As long as he was polite and did as was asked of him he was pretty much free to do as he wanted, which I would have loved to have when I had been growing up.
“You’re sure you don’t want to come baby? Gil said that he would baby-sit CT…” Ron asked moving to my arms and wrapping her own around my neck, bringing her face to within inches of my own.
“Are you kidding? CT and I are gonna have a blast; pizza, computer games and peace and quiet…it really couldn’t get much better!” I smiled pressing my lips to her forehead which, with the high heels, came level to my lips causing her to be a little taller than she really was. “Just you go and have fun ok?”
“Thanks baby,” She leaned in and kissed me so softly that I was sure that I was drowning; getting lost in the kiss and in her beautiful eyes until Matt cleared his throat. “Subtle big man!” Ron giggled pulling away from me.
”Meter!” Matt chuckled softly as he moved to her as she pulled completely away from me; leaving my entire body cold and trembling from the lack of her presence. Matt slowly slipped his hand in to hers and began to lead her out of the house and away from me for the time being.
Cameron’s POV;
I didn’t really want to go out without Jeff; it felt like I was betraying him in some way; like I should be with him when he was still going through this whole thing. But I had heard him loud and clear; I was to have fun tonight and let my hair down.
It just didn’t seem to be right doing it without him. I climbed in to the back seat of the cab that had parked out front of Matt’s front door and my big brother; as he had dubbed himself, climbed in next to me.
“You ok baby girl?” He asked as the cab began to pull away from his house and out on to the long strip of private road that ran through the property.
“Mmhmm; it just feels weird going out without him you know?” I sighed settling back in to the seat preparing myself for the 40 minute drive in to City Limit’s.
“I can imagine but you know that we will look after you right?”
“I know you will big bear; thank you!” I smiled at him and turned to look out the window. “So…”
”Yes?” He asked watching me as I turned back to look at him.
“You out on the pull tonight?” I smiled at him.
“Mmmm maybe but you’re my first…”
”Hey you don’t get to use me as an excuse,” I punched his arm softly as the cab thundered through the night.
“Excuse me?”
“I know you Matthew Moore Hardy; you are ‘so’ picky when it comes to women…”
“This is true,” He chuckled softly looking away from me and out the window on his side of the cab causing the atmosphere to turn quiet and still, which wasn’t anything new between us; it was comfortable and easy.
From the minute I had met Matt; it had been like we had slipped in to an easy friendship and I knew in my heart that he meant a lot to me; his opinion meant a lot to me and if I didn’t have Amber in my life, Matt would be my best friend easily.
Matt’s POV;
What the hell was she trying to do to me?
Dressed the way she was; it wasn’t hard to see why I was attracted to her; why I couldn’t think about anything other than the woman that she was after all that she had been through it was amazing to see how assured she was but deep down I knew that for the most part she was that but sometimes I could see her questioning things around her, and the things that people said when they complimented her.
By the time we got to the bar, I was shifting around uncomfortably in my side of the back seat. I watched as she rooted in her bag for some money to pay the fee, but I quickly handed the driver the money and told him to keep the change.
“Hey thanks man,” He said turning and smiling at me as I climbed out and nodded at him; holding my hand out for Cam who took it readily and climbed out next to me.
Walking in to the busy bar that was almost at bursting point; causing her to step in front of me so I placed both hands on her shoulders as we wondered through the crowds looking for our friends.
Almost instantly Cam was waving her hands in the air and I followed her gaze to see Shannon, Shane, Amber and Shifty waving at us from the very back of the bar.
Letting Cameron lead the way until we were stood in front of them, Amber and Shifty both embraced Cameron at the same time causing her to laugh but give in to the hug and embrace them both back at the same time.
“Shan,” She giggled as he wrapped her up tightly in to his arms. “Shane,” She said when she was released from Shannon’s grip to only be pulled in to Shane’s arms.
Looking around the bar, my eyes moved to the bar then I leaned down to Cam.
”Can I get you a drink sweetie?” I asked.
”Sure a JD would be awesome babe,” She smiled up at me as her hips began to sway from the sexy beat of the song that had come on through the speakers. “Oooohhh I ‘love’ this song; will someone dance with me?”
“Come on then beautiful lady,” Shannon said offering her his hand and leading her on to the dance floor as I sighed heavily and moved towards the bar.
This was going to be a ‘very’ long night!
Shannon’s POV;
Wrapping her up in to my arms, we slowly began to dance sexily against each other to the beat of the song that was playing.
“Wow!” Cam said wrapping one arm around my neck as her other hand rested on my arm that was wrapped around her tiny waist, as my leg snaked in between hers and we began to grind together.
“What?” I asked looking in to her eyes as I slowly dipped her backwards.
“You’re surprisingly good at this,” She smiled.
”Hey!” I objected but finding myself chuckling as she laughed out loud.
I loved Cameron; she was an awesome girl who was loads of fun to hang out with although lately she hadn’t really been much company considering all the shit that had happened because of Randy Orton and what he had done.
But it seemed that she was coming back from where Steven had managed to take her and I couldn’t be happier about that. I loved her but not the way that Jeff did. I looked at her more like a little sister and a best friend. I knew that I could talk to her about absolutely anything and I hoped that she felt the same way and knew that she could lean on me if need be.
“So how you doing really sweetie?” I asked her softly; as we continued to move to the sexy beat of the music.
“I’m much better now that he is dead…it’s like I have been given a new lease on life you know?”
“Well I have to say that you are looking great,”
”Awe you charmer,”
”Sssshhhh don’t tell anyone,” I smiled causing her to giggle softly. “Seriously though baby girl; if you need to talk about anything at all…you know where I am right?”
“I do and thank you Shan; that means more than I can ever…” Her voice trailed off as her eyes began to swim with tears.
“Hey, hey no crying!” I said hoping that she really wasn’t about to start crying; I couldn’t stand to see women cry especially Cam or Amber who were as close to me as the other guys in the core group. “I take it back; I didn’t mean it!” I said causing her to laugh and gently wipe at the tears before they spilled on to her face.
“You…you can’t take it back!” She laughed loudly.
”Hell yeah I can…if it makes you cry then I can take it back!” I smiled flicking her chin softly. “But seriously honey; I never liked Bethany, or any of the girls that Jeff dated before her so I had been prepared not to like you too much when Jeff told me that he liked you but I couldn’t not like you…you’re just everything that his other girlfriend’s have never been,”
”Well thanks,” She blushed heavily resting her head on to my shoulder as the song finished and another started.
Happy to just hold her as we danced until she gathered her composure; which I knew she was doing because she refused to look in to my eyes which was a sure fire sign that she was trying to remain calm and collected.
Twirling her around the dance floor, until I felt a hand on my shoulder. Turning round to see Matt stood behind me and smiling.
”Do you mind?” He asked as Cam looked up and smiled at her brother in law; sure she and Jeff weren’t married and I knew that neither believed in marriage much but they may as well be married because there was no doubt that they were going to be together for the rest of their lives.
“Hey big bear,” Cam smiled at him as she sniffed.
Handing her over to Matt, I moved back to where Shane was stood alone, Amber and Shifty were dancing on the dance floor not far from where Matt had claimed Cam in to his arms.
As I watched them dance, I thought about all the things that my friend Jeff had been through from Bethany to Randy refusing Cam to hang out with him, to Steven coming back and to the point of loosing his home a couple of days ago. I just hoped that he realized that this had happened for a reason; maybe we didn’t know what that reason was right now but I had no doubt that it would become clear in time.

Chapter 38;
BACK AT MATT’S HOUSE;
An hour later;
Jeff’s POV;
CT had turned off his Xbox and was glancing through his Uncle Matt’s DVD’s while I grabbed the plates from the kitchen for the pizzas that had just arrived and grabbed 2 glasses for the cola.
“So big man,” I started thinking that it might be a good idea to talk to CT about my plans before talking to Ron.
“Yeah?” He turned to look at me just as his eyes landed on the DVD that was one of his Mom’s favorites. “Can we watch this?” He asked me holding it out to me. “Please?”
“Your Mom said…”
”Mom isn’t here,” He objected me.
Looking at him, I knew there would be no deterring him from his goal in getting to watch this movie. Nodding my head; he smiled and moved to the DVD player and placed it in to the player then moved back towards me and sat down.
“Before we watch it big man…”
”Yeah?”
“I wanted to talk to you about some things…”
”Sure,” He said putting a slice of pizza on to his plate while I did the same and then poured some cola in to the glasses that I had taken through.
“Well you know that I lost my home right?” I asked watching as he bit in to his pizza.
“Yeah I do,” He replied. “I’m real sorry about that Dad,”
Every time this kid called me Dad made the pride swell up inside me to the point where I was left truly wishing that he really was my son. Having a child had always been something that I wanted and I just hoped that one day Cameron would want to have more children.
“Thanks kid! But I have been thinking today…”
”What about?”
“Well what would you say if I asked your Mom to move in with me?”
“Here?”
“No…I am going to build my own house!”
”Am I invited?” He asked me.
”What? Of course you are kid…I love you as much as I love your Mom, there is no where else I want to be rather than with you and your Mom,”
“So when are you going to build this house and where?” He asked me reaching for his cola while watching me closely as the DVD menu continued to play its theme.
“I was thinking that I would build it right on the same spot as my old home; what do you think?” I asked and was rewarded to the sight of him looking at me in shock. “What is it big man?”
“I don’t really remember much about Steven but I know that he never asked me or my Mom’s opinion on anything,”
“Well I ain’t nothing like Steven kiddo,” I said placing my pizza on the table suddenly not feeling very hungry at all.
I had been so sick lately that the thought of pizza had seemed like a good idea but now I was worried about eating it in case it set me off again.
“I know that and I love you for it Dad. I know that you love my Mom in a way that Steven never did!” He informed me before looking to the screen. “Can we watch the movie now?”
“Sure big man,” I smiled.
There was no point in talking to him about my other plans until I had talked to Ron about it. I knew that if I told him what I was thinking he would just become more excited than what he would be able to contain and I ran the risk of pissing Ron off and I didn’t want that.
“You don’t tell your Mom that I let you watch this ok kiddo?” I said as the screen turned black as the movie slowly began to start.
“Ok Dad!” He smiled at me happily.
Settling in to the sofa with his legs drawn to his chest, he watched the TV as the old song that was the intro to Heather’s; one of not only Ron’s favorite’s movies but mine and Matt’s too.
Half way through the movie the doorbell rang, chuckling to myself as I figured that Ron was indeed drunk and couldn’t find her key.
“Turn off that movie big man!” I said getting to my feet.
”But I…”
”What did I say? Your Mom isn’t to know that I let you watch it; check the chapter and you can watch the rest later,” I said moving slowly to the door as he did as I said and turned it off and moved back to the sofa and skipped to a music channel.
Much like his Mother; CT loved music, when Ron was around there was always music playing either on the stereo or on the telly she loved to have music playing and she had explained to me that it was mostly because when she had been with Steven he had picked what she could listen too and it didn’t include the music that she liked now.
“Is someone a little drun…?” I started as I pulled the door open; my face fell as my eyes met the cold dead eyes that I hadn’t expected to see.
Cameron’s POV;
Matt and I had talked about Jeff and how well we figured that he was really doing and how worried we were about his constant sickness and retching. Matt was as worried as I was, having listened outside our door as Jeff retched, coughed and was sick as the stress of all that had happened the past few days.
We both agreed that we would do whatever we could to ensure that Jeff didn’t get any more stressed than he already was.
Matt was at the bar watching me as he talked to a pretty blond girl who seemed happy to give him all the attention that she could. Motioning him to pay the girl some more attention, I turned back to Shannon who I was talking to about coming in to get another tattoo done at his shop.
”What do you want to get done?” He asked as my eyes landed on Shifty and Amber on the dance floor where they had hardly left since I had arrived.
“A butterfly…”
”Why a butterfly?” Shannon asked as I gulped at my 4th JD and lit a cigarette.
“They are the symbol of freedom…now that Steven is dead; I finally feel like I am free you know?”
“Sounds like a good idea to me sweetie; how about getting the date tattooed underneath it?”
“Oooohhhh that is an awesome idea,” I hugged my friend tightly. “You know there is a reason that I love you mate,” I smiled as I pulled back from my friend.
“Awe you need to stop with the charm baby girl or Jeff is gonna have some major competition on his hands,”
“Too bad it wouldn’t work,” I smiled.
“Ouch; you giveth with one hand and taketh away with the other!” He let out a low rumble of laughter as I was tapped on the shoulder.
Turning my eyes fell on a girl who was looking from me to Shannon.
”Yes?” I asked confused as to why she was looking mostly at me which indicated that it was me that she wanted to talk too.
“You’re Cameron right?”
“Yes,”
”Jeff Hardy’s girlfriend right?”
“Yes,” I replied cautiously as my eyes landed on Matt who began to move towards me but I shook my head no and he nodded and stopped but did not once bring his eyes away from me.
“I read about Jeff’s house. I am so sorry to hear about it…”
”Thank you,” I nodded.
It wasn’t the first time I had, had a fan approach me but I was always conscious about talking with fans because I had, had some of them scream insults at me, some had told me that I wasn’t good enough for Jeff and one had even spat in my face.
“I was wondering if there was anything that I could do…does he need anything at all?” She asked me and it was obvious that all she really wanted was to help Jeff.
My man seemed to instill things in people that made them either love or hate him. I knew that without a doubt I was one of the luckiest women in the world to have the love and support of Jeff and I just hoped that he realized just how much I loved and would support him no matter what.
“Uhm…I don’t think so; I mean he has lost a lot of things but no I don’t think that he needs anything at the moment…”
”Well if there is anything at all…”
”Thank you I really appreciate that and I know that he will be touched by your concern and offer,” I smiled at her softly.
”I just wanted to say that I think you and him look good together,” She offered as Shannon stood watching closely.
“Thank you; that means a lot to me,” I smiled at her.
There seemed to be a divide between the fans; some liked me and accepted me as Jeff’s girl and the others hated me and were forever predicting that we wouldn’t last.
Jeff always told me not to worry about that; that what other people thought didn’t matter because what we had was something that was more than special and we knew that it was right and forever and that was all that mattered.
Mostly I knew that he was right and I agreed with him but sometimes the sound of them saying hurtful things did get to me. In a way it felt like that listening to them seemed to echo Steven’s words in my head.
That I was ugly!
That I was worthless!
That I didn’t deserve to be happy!
That I couldn’t sustain anything worthwhile.
Maybe he had been right; maybe I just wasn’t meant to have something good in my life. Maybe I was destined to end up going through relationships and never being able to have the kind of love that most people took for granted.
“Cam!” Shan said softly placing his hand to the small of my back and moving so that he was in front of me. “I think maybe you should just leave,” He turned to the girl who nodded and looked to me.
“I didn’t mean to upset you,” She said her voice full of remorse.
“You didn’t! It’s just been a hard time lately is all,” I smiled at her reassuringly as Matt approached alone. “Thank you for taking the time, I will be sure to let Jeff know that you were asking for him; what’s your name?” I asked reaching past Shannon to her.
“I’m Sarah!” She said softly.
“Well Sarah it was really nice to meet you and I appreciate the offer for Jeff and I know that he will appreciate it too so thank you,”
“Not a problem,” She smiled and began to move away leaving me staring at the spot where she disappeared.
“You ok?” Matt asked wrapping me up in to his arms. “What did she do to you?”
“Nothing Mattitude!” I smiled looking up at my big brother and smiling happily. “I just…it doesn’t matter,” I said shifting my game face back in to place and looked to the table where my drink was.
I tried to reach for it but Matt had me all but pinned in to his arms in a tight and solid embrace.
“I…need…my-drink!” I said giggling up at him as he smiled and let me go but reached for my hand and excused us from Shannon and led me outside where the cold air rushed in to my lungs so quickly that I was gasping for air. “What?”
“Talk to me Cam,”
”About what? World events?” I asked smiling at him.
“You have been hanging out with Shan way too much you know that?” He asked leading the way to the picnic tables that were placed around the perimeter of the bar. “I mean what came over you in there?”
“Nothing…” I said looking away from him.
“Lie! Beautiful lady lying!” He said moving so that he was in my vision. “Cam I can tell when you are lying,”
“I just…I was thinking about how much some of Jeff’s fans hate me…”
”You know that it means nothing right?”
“I know! I really do but it just sometimes brings back the echo of some of the things that Steven used to say to me,”
“Honey you need to talk to someone about this…”
”No…I really don’t!” I said lighting another cigarette and inhaling deeply; feeling it calming me down more than I had been prepared for.
“Yes…you do! You have been through something really bad baby girl and you need to get it off your chest; you can’t just keep bottling it up,”
“I’m fine Matty; please just let it go?” I pleaded with him.
“I can’t Cam; not when I know what he did…I have heard of people breaking over less and you…”
”I am not most people Matty; I have dealt with this for so long that it is second nature; some days I have bad moments and some days I don’t even think about it; and now that Steven is dead…it can only get better,”
“Promise me that if you need to talk you will come to me?”
“I love you dude, I really do but you can’t control everything. When I have moments like in there the last thing I want to do is talk about it, but if there ever comes a time when I do want to talk then you will be my first port of call ok?” I said touching his arm lightly.
“Good! ‘Cos you mean a lot to me…to us, we all love you and want you to be in our lives for a while to come yet…”
”Well I don’t plan on going no where,” I said looking at my empty glass. “Except to the bar,”
“Come on then baby girl,” He replied wrapping his arm around my shoulder and leading the way back in to the bar where Shannon and Shane were waiting near the entrance for us, Amber and my brother were still out on the dance floor happily lost in each other and the things that were growing between them.
I couldn’t help thinking that they were for keeps; and if they were that would mean that eventually Amber would be my sister; something that I knew both of us would be happy about.
I was glad that I liked Amber because I had hated Seth’s girlfriend Melissa whom he had been dating when I had been in LA and still with Steven.
She had hated me too and it had planted Seth firmly in the middle of his girlfriend and his sister. So I was more than glad that he had gotten together with Amber at least I knew that he wasn’t fighting over who he should spend his time with and it was obvious that my friend was falling for him and they really were good together.
Shannon moved to my side and wrapped his arm around me while Shane took my other side and led the way to the bar; successfully pushing Matt out of the way but he followed behind us.
I ordered the drinks with the thought of having this drink and heading home to my man; I had been gone too long and I was missing him as well as worrying that I had been a little hasty about leaving him alone especially after all the stress that he had been under lately and how sick he had been.

Chapter 39;
Jeff’s POV;
Staring in to the dead cold eyes I couldn’t believe it. I hadn’t expected this at all. I had been sure that it had been Ron unable to find her keys; especially after all she was out with Matt and my friends; it wouldn’t be a stretch for them to get her rip roaring drunk.
What was he even doing here?
“What are you doing here?” I asked not taking my eyes off him.
“I wanted to come and…I needed to try and…”
”You had better come in,” I said pulling the door further open and he stepped inside giving me a smile in the process.
It suddenly occurred to me that I had never truly seen him smile before but here he was smiling and I would be lying if I said that I wasn’t slightly unnerved by it.
”Thanks,” He said as I closed and locked the door back up.
Cameron had gotten me in to the habit when Steven had been around and it seemed that it had just stuck with me.
“What’s he doing here?” CT asked looking up as we moved in to the living room.
“CT go on up to your room; take that movie with you,” I said motioning my guest to take a seat.
“But I don’t…”
”CT!” I said firmly and instantly he relented and moved to the DVD player taking out the movie and heading up the stairs to his room without even looking at the man.
“He’s growing quick,”
“Mmhmm,” I admitted sitting down where I had been sat moments earlier and stared at him.
What did he want?
What did he think coming here would accomplish?
“What can I do for you?” I asked watching as he picked at his fingers without looking at me.
“I want to help Jeff,” He said finally looking up at me and for some reason I figured that he was telling the truth.
He had never been one to say anything that he didn’t mean but what was his angle because there had to be an angle; with him there always was.
“I don’t know that you can…”
”I can if you would just give me a chance,” He interrupted me.
”I don’t know that Ron will be too happy with that,” I admitted.
There was nothing that told me he had learned his lesson and my main priority was Ron and making sure that she was happy, now that Steven was gone there was nothing I wanted more than to make her more happy than she had ever been and with him being here I wasn’t overly sure that, that was plausible.
CITY LIMIT’S;
Shifty’s POV;
Dancing with Amber in my arms all night; we were both lost in the passion that seemed to just be getting stronger and stronger with every passing day.
Nothing around us drew our attention away from one another and I knew that we hadn’t been much company for Cameron and the others but I wasn’t worried, my little sister was very much a huge part of the Core group as Shannon liked to call it.
So there was no need for me to worry about leaving her with them. After all that she and Jeff had been through the past couple of days I figured that she would be fed up of being smothered by people wanting to ensure that she and Jeff were ok and tonight was about her letting her hair down and just enjoying herself.
“W-Why d-don’t we go outside for some air baby?” I suggested as Amber rubbed suggestively against me.
“Mmm sounds like a plan,” She purred turning so that her back was pressed hard against me and continued to sway her hips to the beat of the song we had been dancing to.
Guiding her with my hands on her hips, we moved through the crowds seeing Cam, Shannon, Shane and Matt at the bar doing shots completely unaware of the passion that was growing between me and Amber.
I had never felt this way about anyone, the things that this girl had me feeling were completely foreign to me and more than a little scary but I couldn’t fight it, I couldn’t do nothing but accept my fate of loosing myself to her completely.
Once we were outside, she seemed to take control and led me around the side of the building and slammed me against the old brick wall that surrounded the bar.
Instantly her lips were on mine; kissing me powerfully and unforgivingly as she pressed her body hard against me and without warning my body reacted to her in ways that I had never experienced before.
Whirling her around until we were hidden in the shadows and she was backed against the cold brick wall; I inched my leg in between her legs to ensure that she stayed vertical my hands roamed over her beautiful defined curves.
Our lips seemed to be turning hotter as we kissed with a fever that sparked the desire between us as her hands reached for my jeans and tore at the buttons until her hand was sliding inside and taking me gently in to her soft grip and began pumping up and down.
“Mmmm Amber,” I growled dragging my lips across her face until I was kissing down her soft smooth neck.
“Mmmm Seth,” She purred back resting her head against the wall as her hand continued to stimulate me to the point where I was feeling desperation kicking in.
Bringing my hands to her legs that were barely covered by the short skirt that she had chosen to wear to drive me crazy with desire and hunger. Sliding to the inside of her thighs; my fingers nipped tenderly at her flesh causing her breath to race away from her.
Grazing against her thong I could feel the heat radiating from her and instantly she was turning wet from the force that I was slowly building as I tore the thin material to the side and gently lifted her from the ground and thrust up as she pushed down on to my cock hard.
Engulfing me entirely had me instantly breathless and weak at the same time. Holding still inside her giving her pussy the chance to mold around me I watched the passion and pleasure etch on to her beautiful features and there was nothing I could do but feel myself getting lost in her.
“Seth…you feel so good!” She panted breathlessly and it seemed that she only ever called me Seth when we came together like this.
I found it a huge turn on and couldn’t stop myself from starting to withdraw from her only to slam back in to her forcefully as her legs tightened around my waist giving me a tighter thrust and I could feel everything slipping away from reality until I was drowning in the things that flowed so easily between us.
Amber’s POV;
The feel of his cock dragging out of me only to power back in so forcefully was almost too much to bear and I could feel myself drowning in the things that flowed between us.
It was like we just couldn’t get enough of each other and Cameron’s words echoed in my head; to just go with it that the more you fought it the harder it got to deny.
Almost instantly my entire body surrendered to him and the things that he was doing to me. As if he felt it his eyes moved back up to mine and he smiled sexily at me causing my entire body to shudder from pleasure and desire.
Slowly his head moved to my breasts and bit down roughly on the nipples that were jutting through the thin material of my top and caused a wave of ecstasy to race through me to the point of no return.
My back hurt from the sheer force of desire that had erupted between us; as he continued to slam me back against the hard cold brick wall behind me but I was too far gone in the pleasure between us that I didn’t complain as moan after moan escaped through my lips.
Curling his soft smooth hands around my ass he held me closer to him; literally stopping me from pumping on him as he hammered away at me desperately, grunting out his pleasure as he took me closer and closer to release until I felt his own body shuddering from the force raking through him and it seemed that my body had been waiting for that moment only and I erupted around him violently.
Wave upon wave hit down on me; coursing through my veins to the point of no return and I was biting on my bottom lip to stop from screaming out as his cock slammed against my g spot so deep inside me that my clit tightened more and released more than I ever had before.
Cuming in long violent waves of pleasure as he continued to ram in to me with brut force that I knew it was going to be a struggle to walk when this was over but still we powered against each other until we had finally stopped but stayed connected in every way.
His hands came to my face and cupped me gently as his eyes searched my own.
“You’re…amazing!” He growled softly as he wiped the hair from my face tenderly.
“You’re not too bad yourself there baby,” I smiled resting my forehead against his own and feeling myself getting lost in his eyes.
“Mmmm I’ve never had…”
”Me either,” Even after the short period of time being together it was like we were already in tune with one another and knew what we were thinking and where that had once scared me I wasn’t scared anymore.
In fact after my talk with Cam earlier in the day I found that I welcomed the feeling; she had been right; when it was right, it was right and there was no point in trying to deny it.
My entire body tingled desperately as he slowly withdrew from inside me and slowly lowered me back down on to the ground and my feet.
“You ok to head back inside?” He asked me as he brushed his lips over my own.
“Mmhmm!” I nodded in agreement as I was sure that actual words were completely beyond my capability right in this moment.
We both straightened out our clothing, then he interlocked his hand with mine and led the way back in to the bar where we had spent the majority of the night lost in each others arms; dancing close and sexy until it had led to what had just erupted between us.
“Hey guys where did you go…” Shannon started to ask as we approached and Cameron looked up at us and smiled.
”My God don’t you ever stop?” She asked causing me to flush a deeper shade of crimson.
“Do you and Jeff?” Shifty asked.
“Oooohhhh touché,” My friend laughed refusing to feel embarrassed about the sex life she had with her man. “Shot?” She asked holding up her glass to me and Shifty.
”Sure why not,” Shifty replied holding his hand out for a shot glass.
“Amber?” Shannon asked looking at me as Cameron grabbed the bottle that had been laid out on the bar and poured a healthy shot in to her brother’s glass.
”Sure,” I smiled taking a glass and letting my friend pour another healthy shot in to mine.
“You guys have some catching up to do,” Matt said leaning against the counter with Cameron stood in front of him; almost leaning back against his frame as she swayed from the sheer amount that she had drank.
Shifty and I both downed our shot and almost straight away Cameron was refilling us up as I felt the burn of the shot sliding down my throat.
By the time we had caught up to the others, half the bottle had been devoured and Cameron was laughing heavily as Matt complained about not wanting anymore.
”Light weight,” She giggled swaying on the spot as she reached for her smokes and placed it in to her mouth and tried to light it.
“It might help if it were the right way round sweetie,” Shan chuckled as she became increasingly frustrated at the fact it wouldn’t light.
“Mmm you’re right,” She laughed finally turning it around and lit up and inhaling deeply until her body seemed to relax and Matt wrapped his arm around her neck to steady her before she fell over. “I really should get home,”
“Already?” Shane asked his southern accent creeping in to his voice as he stood against the bar also swaying from side to side.
“I think y’all should go home too…y’all are as in as bad a shape as I am,” Cameron laughed flicking her cigarette in to the ashtray on the bar.
Looking up at Shifty as he placed his shot glass on the bar satisfied that no one was paying attention to the fact that he wasn’t doing anymore shots. I quickly followed his lead and let my body rest against his.
Cameron’s POV;
I had drank way too much; I had told Jeff that I wouldn’t be drunk and here I was half way to being completely mortal. My eyes were struggling to remain focused on things in front of me and I was beginning to wonder where I actually was.
I hated being drunk; Shannon had once said that it was because I was a control freak; like I always had to be in control of myself and I knew in a small way that it was but I just didn’t like the feeling of being drunk but after the past few days I figured that I needed it.
“Don’t think I didn’t notice y’all putting your glasses down on the bar,” Shannon said to my brother and best friend.
“Awe you guys chickening out?” I asked stumbling as I pulled myself away from Matty’s embrace, and instantly wished that I hadn’t as I felt the world beginning to spin.
“Mmm just like you are,” Shifty said flicking my chin playfully.
”I’m not chickening out…I just told Skittles that I wouldn’t be long and I wouldn’t be too drunk,” I said swaying again.
“Then you lied on both counts then huh?” Shan chuckled as he pulled me close to him.
“Y’all are a bad influence on me,” I smiled resting my head against his huge chest until I remembered that I was supposed to be going home. “I really need to go,”
”You’re already late what is another hour or 2?” Shane asked pouring another round of shots in to the glasses around the bar.
“One more drink and then I am gone,” I said grabbing my glass and downing the liquid in one go and slamming my glass back on to the bar before the others. “Right I will see y’all tomorrow at some point,” I said grabbing up my things and kissing the guys then hugging my best friend. “You all have fun without me,”
“Bye!” They all chorused as Matt fell in to step with me and wrapped his arm around my shoulder.
“You don’t have to come Mattitude,”
”No I just want to make sure you get a cab ok?” He smiled down at me and walked to the curb, sticking his hand out and hailed a cab. “I will see you in the morning beautiful,”
Leaning in to the front he gave the cab driver the address and stood back as the cab pulled away from the sidewalk and we were on our way home.
My thoughts turned to Jeff; I hope he isn’t going to be mad at the state of me when I get in. I know that I had said that I wouldn’t be too drunk but damn it when those guys started; it was hard not to get sucked in to it too.
Finally the cab pulled up outside the house where Matt lived and I leaned forward to pay the driver but he informed me that Matt had already paid the fee. So I said goodnight and stumbled out of the cab.
Fumbling in my bag for the keys, I slipped them in the door and pushed it open; crashing inside a little too loudly.
”Ok I hope CT is in bed ‘cos you are about to get so lucky Jeffrey Nero Hardy!” I said giggling as I stumbled in to the living room and my eyes landed on the man sat on the sofa opposite Jeff. “What the hell is he doing here?” I demanded as I quickly began to sober up.

Forbidden;
Chapter 40;
Jeff’s POV;
I had sat here and listened to Randy tell me what he felt, how he felt like he was falling for Cameron, and that how he thought if he could just keep her away from me then he would have a shot with her.
It wasn’t that I forgave him for what he had done but I felt bad about how he was feeling for her; because in all honesty if I had been in his shoes, I think I may have gone a little crazy too; it was just the kind of reaction that Cameron instilled in you.
“Baby…” I said getting up and seeing her stumbling as she tried to stay in position; she was drunk and I couldn’t stop the humor rising in me.
I loved drunk Cameron; she had absolutely no inhibitions when she was drunk; it was like she let go of all the bad stuff that had been inflicted on her and became the fun loving woman that I had always known that she could be.
“I asked what he was doing here?” She repeated herself as she grabbed on to me to stop herself from falling over. “What are you doing here?” She glared at Randy angrily.
“I-I…I just…I wanted to come and…”
”What? Rub salt in the wounds? Haven’t you done enough to me?” Her voice was bordering on yelling and I could see that Randy was instantly regretting coming here.
But the truth of the matter was that there was nothing else that he could do to us; we had beat what he had done to us and Steven was now dead…gone forever and that meant Ron and I were free to just enjoy each other. There truly was nothing else that Randy could do to us.
“Ron baby; calm down please,” I whispered holding her close to me and looking in to her eyes, which were almost closed in her drunken state.
“Calm down?” She asked whirling her head to me and looking in to my eyes with her own springing open a little wider.
“Yeah just…” There really wasn’t much point in trying to get her to listen when she was this drunk because once she made up her mind when she was drunk usually meant that there was no changing it. “Come on; let’s get you to bed,” I said looking to Randy as he stood up. “Just take one of the spare rooms upstairs Randy,” I said pulling Ron against me and moving towards the stairs.
”He’s not staying here the night,” Ron spat angrily.
“Come on princess; it’s time to get you to bed,” I said moving up the stairs to the second floor where Matt had given us pretty much free rain of.
Without fighting she all but collapsed against my frame so I gently lifted her up in to my arms and was surprised when I managed to carry her up to the second floor considering I didn’t have anything in my system and until recently I had been taking all the comfort from her and the support to even move let alone carry her.
“Mmm someone is feeling better,” She whispered resting her head against mine and obviously forgetting all about Randy Orton following behind us.
“Oh it’s all you baby girl,” I chuckled softly feeling my body trembling from the way she was running her hands through my hair and blowing in to my ear seductively. “Damn it Ron; stop!” I growled kicking the bedroom, that we had taken over, door open and stepped over the threshold.
Looking back to Randy, I nodded my head to the room at the further end of the hall.
”That room at the end is completely empty,” I said.
”Thanks Jeff,” He said watching as I moved in to the room with Ron, who had fallen asleep in the space of a few seconds, in my arms. “Goodnight,”
”Night,” I said not overly sure that I was doing the right thing but I couldn’t put him out on the street in the middle of the night, especially if he were being honest with me.
I kicked the door closed and moved to the bed where I gently placed her down and she fluttered her eyes open.
”I’m sorry Skittles,”
“For?” I asked confused as I sat down facing her.
“Coming home late and drunk…Shan thought it would be a good idea to do shots…and I just got sucked in to it…”
”Baby it is more than ok,” I chuckled softly as I leaned down and brushed my lips over hers and she smiled as she let out a little moan.
Closing her eyes she slipped away from me in to sleep, so I slowly pulled the covers up over her body and moved out of the bedroom thinking about Randy being here and what he wanted.
I had listened as he had told me that he wanted to help; that he would do anything, help clean up at the site where my house had been, he would run around after Ron if he had too; he just wanted the chance to make it up to us.
For the first time ever I felt like I could believe what he was saying but trusting him was another thing completely considering all that he had done to us or tried to do to us.
But I was the one who had won; I had the girl, we had began to build a life together and now that Steven was completely out of the picture; it was going to be a lot easier to do all the things that we wanted to do.
So for the time being I was prepared to give Randy the benefit of the doubt and once I was satisfied that I had everything turned off and locked up, I turned off the lights and made my way back to Ron who was fast asleep; the covers pulled up over her body.
Stripping out of my cloths, I crawled in to the bed next to her and gently pulled her towards me knowing that this night hadn’t ended in the way that either of us had envisioned.
THE FOLLOWING MORNING;
Cameron’s POV;
Oh God I am dying; my entire body is screaming in protest to the things that I had inflicted on it the previous night. The sun was piercing through my eyelids forcing me to wake up and face the world.
“Mmmm!” I groaned as it truly felt like my head was about to burst from the pain that was hammering hard against my skull.
“Morning my little drunken gorgeous baby,” Jeff’s voice tore through me at a thousand watts a second causing me to shake my head no. “No what?” He asked the amusement evident in his loud chuckle.
”No talking…just whisper please!” I moaned refusing to open my eyes. “Or my head is going to pop like a zit,”
“Oh really?” He let out a loud rumble of laughter causing my eyes to roll back in my head and my hands to cover my ears.
“Are you trying to kill me?” I demanded in a whisper.
“No baby,” He gently leaned down and pulled my hands away from my ears and placing his lips to mine softly.
“Mmmm,” I purred wrapping my now free hands around his body and pulled him close to me. “I do believe that you have just gone up a stock in my book,”
”I have huh?” He chuckled as he pulled his lips away from mine as I nodded my head yes. “But you have horrendous drunk breath, damn baby girl I could get drunk just from the fumes coming out of that mouth,”
“Hey!” I said finally opening my eyes and drowning in the natural green of his own. “I resent that…it’s all Shan’s fault,”
”Oh you remember that huh?” He laughed wiping the hair from my face and moving so that he was lying to the side of me.
“Mmm I remember him suggesting doing shots and I said that I would have a couple before I came home but anything after that…it’s a bit hazy!” I admitted resting my head further in to the pillow under me; the softness seemed to wrap around my head and left it feeling less sore.
Knocking on the bedroom door tore through the moment that we were sharing.
”Yeah!?” Jeff called out causing my head to almost spasm out of control and again my eyes were rolling back in my head causing him to chuckle once again.
”Can I come in?” Matt’s voice grumped through the door.
”Sure,” Jeff replied.
The door pushed open and my adopted big brother stepped inside closing the door behind him; damn he looked worse than I felt.
”Hey Mattitude!” I said.
“Hey baby girl! Jeff can you tell me why Randy Orton is sitting in my kitchen drinking my coffee and eating my cinnamon cereal?”
”WHAT!?” I all but screamed out of me and instantly was rewarded to my eyes once again rolling back in my head and a wave of sickness rising in me.
Pushing the covers back not caring what I looked like and was surprised to see that I was still in my cloths from the previous night I raced for the bathroom where I threw up violently.
“Baby!” Jeff raced in to the ensuite after me and sank to his knees wiping the hair back from my face.
“What the hell is going on Jeff? Why is Randy here? And why the hell did you let him stay here?” Matt asked standing in the doorway of the ensuite watching his little brother trying to comfort me.
“Just give me a second damn it,” Jeff snapped turning to look at Matt who instantly put his hands up and backed off.
Finally the sickness stopped and I moved to the sink and splashed my face with cold water feeling it cooling me down thankfully.
Moving in to the bedroom, I looked at Jeff questioningly as he sat down next to me and looked from me to his brother who was waiting patiently for the answers to the questions he had asked moments previously.
“Look I don’t for one second forgive him for what he has done, there is absolutely no way that I could but he apologized and I have a feeling that he is truly sorry…he just wants to help!”
”Help!? Help!? After what he did he ain’t fit to lick Cam’s shoes let alone help us brother,” Matt scolded as he paced back and forth in front of us.
”I know that Matt; do you think that I don’t remember what he did to her…and to you?” Jeff asked jumping to his feet.
”Guys!” I said as they both pushed hard against each other angrily; neither one listening to me. “GUYS!?” I jumped to my feet and squeezed my way in between them, not really needing this right now as my head protested to the noise, to the movements that my body was making and to my own voice.
“Stay out of this Cam!” Matt said his eyes burning in to Jeff’s angrily.
“Don’t you fucking talk to her like that!” Jeff growled angrily.
”ENOUGH!” I screamed just as angrily. “Don’t you guys see that this is what he wants? You guys are brother’s you shouldn’t be fighting…just quit it! I don’t like my voice like this!” I scolded them both with all but a shriek in my voice.
The minute it was out I fell down on to the bed and placed my head in my hands and sighed heavily.
“Matt I trust Jeff’s instincts if he says that Randy wants to help then I think that we should let him help,” I said finally looking up at Matt who looked at me in disbelief.
“But he…”
”I know what he did Matty; I was there remember…I was in the ring and I was backstage when he kicked you but what is that old saying…? Keep your friends close but your enemies closer!”
Watching him closely I knew that he wasn’t buying it, his eyes were still masked with disbelief and there was a tension in his posture.
“Listen to me Matty; Jeff hasn’t forgiven him, I sure as hell ain’t forgiving him and I know that you won’t forgive him but I think having him around…is a good thing!” I said getting up and moving to him as Jeff paced determinedly.
“I’m telling you Matt I don’t for one second forgive him for what he did and I don’t believe for a second that he has changed but I do think that he feels remorse for what he did,” Jeff said moving to where I was holding on to Matt and I could feel his body relaxing slowly.
Matt’s POV;
This was crazy; they were both acting like Randy hadn’t burned them; like he hadn’t sold Cam up the river because he couldn’t get his way.
But the minute I looked at Cameron I knew that she was the one who had been burned the worst and if she trusted Jeff’s judgment on this then I could trust him too.
”All right! I am going on the record as saying that this is a bad idea but ok,” I sighed looking from Cam to Jeff and back again.
“I know that you aren’t happy about this dude, but Ron is right…keep your friends close and your enemies closer!” Jeff said as Ron grabbed up a fresh set of cloths and excused herself to go have a shower and freshen up before having to go and face Randy.
Jeff and I moved out of the bedroom and headed down to the kitchen where Randy was washing up his dishes and CT was sat at the dining table eating his cereal and glaring at the man who had burned his Mother by bringing the monster that she had left behind.
“Dad!” CT said getting up and moving to my little brother’s side and hugging him tightly causing Randy to turn and look across.
“Morning big man,” Jeff said ruffling his hair and moved to the kettle.
CT looked at me and I shrugged unsure of what else to do. I didn’t like this idea; it had disaster written all over it. But there was obviously no talking to either Jeff or Cameron.
“Randy I was thinking of heading over to the…to my house today to start cleaning up, are you ok to come with?” Jeff asked pulling out 3 mugs from the cupboard.
Randy’s POV;
Looking from Jeff to his brother to CT I knew that all of them didn’t trust me for as far as they could throw me but I was here to make sure that I started to at least try to make this right.
“Yeah sure man, just tell me what you need me to do,” I replied Jeff’s question.
“I want you to start by moving all the stuff we are going to need over to Jeff’s house,” Cameron said walking in to the kitchen looking refreshed but tired none the less. Her long hair hung limp and wet down her back, her beautiful features devoid of make up.
“Sure anything at all,” I replied watching as she moved to Jeff and kissed him passionately; it stung to see how good they were together but if I could have her as a friend then I would settle for that.
Glancing across at Matt I knew that he was going to be the hardest one to convince that I wanted to make this right but as I looked at him I could see the same jealousy that I felt mirrored on his face.
Was it possible that Matt was in love with his brother’s girlfriend?
“Fine well all the things that we will need is in the garage; CT will show you where it all is…” Cameron said pulling away from Jeff.
“But Mom…” CT objected quickly.
I knew that he wouldn’t be overly happy about me being here either, especially when I saw how attached to Jeff he obviously was.
“Do as I say Corey Taylor Reid!” Cameron scolded her boy who turned and glared at me and began to lead the way out of the house through the door that led to the garage.
Glancing back I caught the look between Cameron, Jeff and Matt; and I knew they were suspicious of why I was here and what my motives were but in all honesty the only motive I had was having Cameron as a part of my life as a friend.
