A/N : I am officially an idiot,I knew the date of Smackdown in the last chapter was suppose to be 04-10-2001 but I forgot to change it,I am hereby doing so.

Smackdown (continuation) : 04-10-2001.

Smackdown night and Valerie was nervous as hell.She had only been out there once before and though the attention had been on her,she hadn’t noticed because she was too busy trying to help her father but this time was different,this time she was coming out at the same time as Matt,Lita and Jeff, this time everyone would know who she was and what she was doing there from the start.

She was in her father’s dressingroom along with her father and her uncle,pacing,checking her hair in the mirror and then pacing some more.She kept doing that until her father had had enough.Taker was sitting down and watching her along with Kane,who had just had his match against Albert,and said:

"Joyful,you’re making your old man nervous as hell.Sit down and relax"

"I can’t sit down and relax,I’m nervous and tense"

"There’s nothing to be tense about" Taker said.

Taker raised his eyebrows and said:

"Unless you’re considering interfering in the match"

Valerie turned to him and frowned.

"Why would I do that?"

"I know you Joyful,if something happens to them boys you’re not gonna sit around and watch it happen, you’re gonna do something about it,I need you to promise me you wont"

"I wont"

"Promise me"

"Alright I promise"

Taker felt a little better after that.

"And don’t feel nervous,you’re gonna be fine"

Valerie nodded and turned to her uncle.

"What about you uncle Kane?.Do you think I’m gonna be alright?"

"You’ll be fine as long as you DON’T interfere"

"I know,it’s been rubbed in by now,I wont"

Valerie started pacing again and said:

"I’m so tense I feel like I’m about to explode"

"What do you think Kane?.Think I oughta sell her to the circus"

"WHAT?" Valerie screeched.

"Well if you’re gonna explode,there might be some people wanting to see it"

Valerie failed to notice that it was a joke because of her nervous state and she stormed to the room shaking with rage.

"Joyful,come one it was a…"

The door slammed shut.

"…joke"

Kane shook his head and said:

"Way to go bro"

Taker sighed and got up.

"I better go after her before she throws herself in the arms of that Hardy Boy"

He left the room and went after his daughter to talk to her.He found her standing in the hall with none other then Jeff Hardy,she wasn’t in his arms but they were standing awfully close.Taker thought about going over there and knocking the snot out of Jeff Hardy but then changed his mind.It was hard enough to calm his daughter when she was angry,he didn’t need to be calming her down when she was pissed off.He calmly walked back to his dressingroom and looked back one more time,Jeff was leaning against the wall carefully listening to what Valerie was saying,he kept his eyes on Valerie’s the whole time and he seemed to really care.Yep,the boy was interested in Val,now let’s hope he’s smart enough to back off.Taker walked back into the dressingroom and Kane said:

"So?.Was she wrapped in any Hardy arms?"

Taker grumbled something that sounded alot like "Damn boy better back off" and Kane chuckled and Taker turned to him.

"What are you laughing at?"

"It’s young kids in love bro,there’s nothing you’d be able to do about it anyway"

"Watch me,besides my little girl is not in love with that…that…"

"That boy?.That man?"

"Jeff Hardy is not worthy of my daughter"

Kane got up with a slight smirk on his face.

"Look bro,I don’t find Jeff Hardy all that appealing myself but you gotta look at it from her point of view, maybe she does"

"You’re pissing me off,you know that don’t you?"

"Maybe but if you can’t accept the thought of Jeff Hardy being with your daughter,how are you gonna accept the fact?"

"That’s awfully philosophical"

"Getting knocked on the head tends to do that to me.All I’m saying is that maybe you should let your daughter make her own decisions on this one"

Taker though this over for a second and said:

"Maybe…"

Kane nodded and said:

"I’m gonna take a shower,tell me when those Hardy Boys start their match"

Taker nodded absently and sat down.He grabbed the remote control and turned the tv on.He saw his daughter walking next to Jeff in conversation.They were on their way to the ring and Lita and Matt walked right behind them with smiles on their faces.

"Maybe not" Taker said while leaning back and thinking.
