The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

I walked into the kitchen to pick up the ringing phone. When I answered I heard elevator music in the background and thought nothing else of it so I started to hang up when I heard, "Hey Stacey this is Vince McMahon from the WWE, I was wondering if you could somehow make it up to the office today."

I knew I couldn't refuse the boss so I sighed, "Uh yeah I will be there in about five hours do you mind if Matt were to accompany me?"

He came back on shortly, "Sure I don't mind if you were to. Is there something going on between you and Matt Hardy, Stacey, something you want to tell your adopted father about?"

So now you know that Vince McMahon is my adopted father and he watched my every move. I sighed, "Well I suppose Daddy since you are asking me about it. He is my new boyfriend."

Daddy let out a long sigh and came back on, "Stacey what have I told you? I once asked you not to disappoint me like your sister did. Yeah I do love her and you know I respect her discisions but you are all I have left connected to this whole world that I care about. You know I had my eyes on you dating and eventually marrying Dave Bautista."

I gulped knowing I might be literally battling my own father, "Daddy you know that I love you unconditionally. Dave is married and he has three beautiful daughters. He loves his wife very much. You can't break up true love, Daddy. You should know that by now."

He acted as if he were crying, "And all I wanted was the very best for you,Stacey. Dating Matt Hardy is dating death. He will lead you nowhere but down a path that can't help support you for the rest of your life. But if that is what you want then so be it. You will leave me no other choice but to give your portion of the company over to Stephanie and Paul once I die. I admit Paul is not what I wanted your sister to marry but he is better than Matt Hardy."

I was not the least bit surprised. Dare I play the role he wanted me to, or would I play my own role of the disobedient daughter and continue my own path in life? I loved Matt and would I be willing to sacrifice my whole world for him? Would it be worth the sacrifice? I sighed, "Daddy you know what? I have been doing everything for you and Momma all my life and nothing for me. I am dating Matt Hardy because it's what my heart has led me to do. Its something that I want to do. And for once you are not going to use your little decoy to lead me back to you. Give the company to Stephanie and Paul if that is what you wish to do.From now on I am your employee not your daughter."

I hung up the phone and felt my heart plummet to the bottom of my chest. Matt came over at one o' clock to get me for practice. Two days left and I would go back to the company. Matt saw the look on my face and asked, "What is wrong?"

I gulped not wanting to really tell him but knew I must, "Daddy and I got into it over me dating you but I told him it was my life and I would date who I wanted to. My consequence was that my portion of the company will be given over to Stephanie and Paul."

Matt sighed and ran a hand through his hair, "Are you disappointed with your decision?"

I looked into his eyes, "No and I clearly would make a million sacrifices to be with you one more time if I had to. I love you and no one will make that go away, Matt. Are you disappointed with the decision?"

He slowly shook his head, "No and how could I be? I am clearly in love with you, Stacey. I didn't get together with you because you are McMahon's daughter."

My Sacrifice was this...thing called love...

Matt looked into my eyes at dinner. Nothing was on my mind except the kiss and words we had shared the night before. Matt's dad passed the steak and I was trying to listen to him talk about his job but listen to Matt's eyes at the same time. After dinner Jeff and I volunteered to do the dishes while Matt and his father sat out on the back porch.

Jeff turned to me, "You are in love again aren't you? I hope it isn't with someone like Shawn Michaels. Boy he treated you like trash and you let him. I still haven't gotten over that."

I laughed, "And to my knowledge you won't ever either. I thought the night he revealed all that he did to me that you were going to beat the hell out of him. You are right I am in love with someone and he is very special to me."

He studied me a moment longer and sighed, "Ok I give up and must know who it is. Your killing me with the suspense."

I gulped knowing I was risking something big by telling him but went on, "It is your brother, Jeff. First before you get over protective, just know that I would never do to him what Amy did."

Instead of the reaction I thought he would give he nodded. He smiled, "That is good to know someone will give him the attention he craves and needs. I think you and him are actually good for each other and you both have my blessings on the relationship."

I smiled and threw myself in his arms. After we talked with the rest of the family Matt asked me if I wanted to take a walk. Of course I couldn't deny him anything. We walked the edges of the woods and he turned to me, "I want to thank you for coming here tonight and dad said we both have his blessings. He likes you a whole lot more than Amy. And Jeff said you and he talked during the dishes. I am glad they approve of us Stacey. That means a lot to me."

I looked up at him, "You mean a lot to me, Matt Hardy. More so than I think that you know. I am not sure what tomorrow will bring but I do know my feelings for you are real..."

I woke up one evening thinking of my past. I had come so far with my life I thought. I had made a name for myself in professional wrestling and had a nice car and a pretty big house. My trainers were the Hardy Brothers and they lived about thirty miles from me in the small town of Cameron, North Carolina.

Lately Matt Hardy the eldest of the brothers had a gruesome break up with his girlfriend Amy Dumas. Up until this point I had not had a problem with her and then she had just cheated on Matt with another guy from wrestling also one of our best friends Adam Copeland. Jeff had looked at Amy and said that he was sorry he had trusted her. I shook my head at her and walked away from her. Truth be told I felt very sorry for her.

She had given someone up that had been very good to her. I would have killed to have the relationship that she had had with Matt. As I gazed down out at the lake, I let a tear fall. My own relationship had gone down the drain. I had dated Shawn Michaels for two years without knowing he was married and had two kids. As I went to light a candle the phone rang. It was my friend Matt. He asked, "What are you doing the rest of the day?"

I laughed, "Nothing really I was just sitting here feeling sorry for myself again. What did you have in mind?"

He answered, "Nothing really just that maybe you would like to come to a workout with me. Maybe we could catch dinner and a movie later tonight."

Of course I agreed and went with him to Gold's Gym and worked out. After that we headed to Crystal Palace and ate Chinese for dinner. We went to the theater in the mall in Cary and watched the sequeal to the Blade movies. At three minutes till one in the morning we finally made it back to my house. We had had a great time and I felt the need to sleep.

He immediately hugged me and I admitted that it felt different this time. Yeah there had been past times when he had hugged me that it felt ok but this time something in my heart jittered and my heart began to flutter. I looked at him in the partial moonlight and his long dark hair silhoetted his face. His dark eyes were shinning and I felt at peace...then memories flooded back.

I saw myself sitting on the mat during breaks when I was training. Matt and I were laughing and I had actually smiled not forcibly but because I had wanted to. Then there had been the time at White Water in Atlanta when he and Amy had actually been a couple but Matt had ended up spending the majority of the day with me since Amy had a autograph session to do with the hospital.

Two nights ago I had had dreams that he and I had been together as boyfriend and girlfriend. I remembered how caring and romantic he had actually been towards me. I began to consider that maybe this was fate trying to bring Matt and I together. Then again I had vowed that I would never get involved with another wrestler again as long as I lived. How could this be any different?

Matt leaned towards me and I allowed him to lay a tiny kiss on my cheek. I wanted so much more but dare not take it. I smiled up at him and said, "I really had fun tonight and I must say Matt, you are the perfect date."

He smiled slightly, "Same here Stace. I had tons of fun tonight. The Chinese was great and the movie was not bad either. Would you like to come over to Dad's for dinner tomorrow night after practice?"

I knew we had practice tomorrow but I never imagined him inviting me to his house for dinner. I had only met his dad once but he had seemed like a very nice guy. I nodded, "Yeah I would like that a lot."

The prolonged silence fluttered out again and then it surprised me when he grabbed me up in his arms and began to kiss me on the mouth. He brought me so close to him that I could smell the after shave he wore. Instead of fighting him off I did the unthinkable. I returned the kiss and when he let go I gulped. I was speechless and didn't know what to say.

He was the first one to speek which I was thankful. He said, "I think that that was meant to happen and I don't want you to think that I was coming off wrong on that. I cannot say what you mean to me Stacey. There is something between us that wasn't there between me and Amy."

I knew my heart was racing because I could feel it, "Matt please don't take this to be offensive and I don't want you to think I am trying to be like Amy. I think that I am in love with you."

He pulled me in his arms, "How could I ever think you are anything like Amy? You and her are so different Stacey. I know you would never break my heart and I know how much you despise what she did to me. I am in love with you too."

From that moment I wasn't sure at what would happen but I was sure that I would always love Matt Hardy.

"Is it possible to love two people you think?" Matt Hardy asked me. I shrugged, "No I don't think so. I mean well I have before. One was a guy off the internet that I met on this website called Vampire Rave. He fucked me over."

Matt's response was this, "I am terribly sorry about your heart break and trust me I can relate. I have been so out of luck in the love department but I have been talking to one chick. Her name is Lori."

I smiled, "Well she is very lucky to have met someone as neat and fun to be around. Your a great guy, Matt Hardy no matter who says otherwise. I am so sorry about what happened to you and Lita."

He nodded, "So am I but I believe that everything happens for a reason. Maybe it was luck that I met her."

I knew that I also had a friend in Matthew Moore Hardy.
