Title: How Did I Fall In Love With You? Author: Amanda Rating: R Content: m/m slash, a few bad words lol Characters: Jeff Hardy and Adam Copeland (Edge) Summary: Jeff has been hiding a secret from his friend. He is amazed to find out Adam has a little secret of his own. Which one gets their say? Disclaimer: I don’t own these characters but I do own this story so don’t steal it! “You got your stuff?” Asked Adam throwing his sports bag over his shoulder and turning to look at his friend. “I think I got everything.” The youngest Hardy Boy replied scratching his head and scanning the locker room for any remnants of his possessions Adam chuckled, “We don’t want another escapade like last week!” It had been only a month since Jeff jumped ship onto Smackdown and teaming up with his old buddy Adam. He’d finally pulled himself out of the rut he’d been in, but he didn’t do it alone. Adam was amazing. He was always where he said he’d be and on time to! He always had a shoulder for Jeff to cry on and endless weekends to spend with him, just chillin. This was to be another one of their weekends, this one longer than most. They’d finished Smackdown and seeing as how they had to meetings or autograph signings they were free men. To explain Adam’s reminder to Jeff to remember his belongings, it was a week ago that Jeff had left half of his clothes there having to borrow Adam’s for the whole weekend. It wasn’t so bad though. The two were friends, they shared. The only problem left in Jeff’s mind was his mad crush on his buddy. It had been around for almost two years but suddenly sprang back to life when the two teamed up again recently. Every move Adam made sent sparks of electricity down Jeff’s spine. He desperately wanted to just tackle Adam to the ground and grope his body, but no. He couldn’t. Adam would hate him. He’d die if he lost another friend to his idiotic ways. “Well,” Jeff shrugged , “It’s not so bad being in your pants all weekend.” His mouth spoke without his mind reading the context into his words. He immediately smacked himself in the forehead and began grumbling scornful phrases at himself. Adam smirked before patting his friend on the shoulder, trying to ignore what he’d just heard. “Lets go Jeff, we gotta stop by the store and pick up some beer. We drank all we had left at the hotel last night.” The two then made their way out of the emptying building, Adam with his arm around Jeff, and Jeff with his heart in his throat. He prayed that he didn’t get plastered later. That could be fatal to his cover up operation. His feelings felt like some stunt double for a James Bond flick; always hiding, being slick, being secretive and mysterious not to mention seductive. After getting lost in the parking garage, finding the wrong rental car twice, and finally stopping to ask a security guard where the hell their car was… the two found their way to the bland vehicle. None of the cars were ever any different. They were all the same even though the make and model might be different. Adam and Jeff had seen thousands of rental cars over their years in wrestling as they did with hotels. Nothing had a meaning anymore, well almost nothing. One thing still held a special place in Jeff’s heart and that was his love, his crush, his lust for Adam. “I guess we should just throw our stuff in the trunk.” Adam said trying to balance his bag on his knee while holding another bag in his hand. “Umm… Adam..” Jeff snickered at his crush’s adorable situation. He had that distressed look on his face but his smile still remained. His hair had fallen partially into his face when he paused to look the young high flyer. “Hey… Ummm,” Adam grinned supressing a giggle , “could you get my keys out of my pocket? They’re on this side.” When Jeff’s mind registered what his ears just heard his heart skipped two beats and melted like a candle under a flame torch. His green eyes slowly dropped from Adam’s eyes to his slightly baggy leather pants. “Umm,” He swallowed hard, “sure thing.” He nervously extended his arm and stuck his shakey hand into his friends pocket. He felt a sudden tightness in his thighs and mentally cursed himself for being so sexually driven. He didn’t feel the keys immediately but felt around under his middle finger brushed against a cool metal object. He frowned, hoping it wasn’t noticeable. He didn’t wanna take his hand away from Adam’s body, but not wanting to ruin his friendship, did. He pulled the keys out and stuck them in the trunk, popping it open. “Good work Jeffry.” Teased Adam lifting his bags into the trunk at the same time as Jeff. Their hands brushed as both went to close the top. “Sorry.” Jeff blushed and immediately slid his hand out from under Adam’s and turned away. “Its cool. Lets get goin.” Adam pulled the keys from the trunk and got into the drivers seat. Jeff went around and plopped down on the passenger side and buckled himself in. “Whatsa matter Hardy? Don’t trust my driving?” Asked the blonde as he turned the key bringing the car to life. He smiled over at Jeff who looked right back with the same smile. “Of course I don’t!” He Teased. Adam placed a hand over his chest and pretended to be offended. “I never.” He whispered pulling the car into reverse. The drive to the store was rather short seeing as there was a store strait across the street from the hotel they stayed at. The black Kia stopped in front of the brightly lit market. “You wanna go in?” Adam asked removing his seatbelt. Jeff, staring out the window into the starry nothingness didn’t even hear him. “Jeff! Hello?!?” Adam smack Jeff’s knee bringing him back down to planet earth and off of planet Adam Copeland. “Huh? What?” Adam sighed, “You okay?” His usually comical look changed to a more serious one. His hand now rested on the young daredevils knee. “I’m fine. I was just thinking.” “You’re lying too. Somethings bothering you.” He stated in a matter of factly tone. “You go ahead and get the drinks. I’ll be fine. I think I just need a pick me up or somethin.” Jeff did lie, Adam was right. He covered his ass well, but not well enough. “Aiight, suit yourself.” And with those words the blonde exited the car and disappeared inside the small market. Jeff banged his head against the window wishing he were someone else, or dead. He wanted Adam so bad that he’d do anything to have him. He didn’t care about sex or money or things like that. He just wanted a kiss. One loving kiss was all he asked for and compared to some of the things he’d heard Shannon and Matt discussing…. That wasn’t a lot! A few minutes passed by and Adam reappeared carrying a bag with a 6 pack of beer inside. He opened the door and handed the bag in to Jeff who looked inside just out of curiosity. “Why do you always do that?” Adam asked smiling. Jeff eyed him. “What?” Shrugged the multicolored one. “That… that little snooping through the bag thing when you know exactly what I went in for.” “I dunno,” Jeff looked up to lock his eyes with Adam’s, “Just a habit I guess.” Adam nodded. “You have a lot of habits I’ve noticed.” The blonde turned the key and the car headed out toward their hotel just across the street. They parked the little black Kia close to the building and turned off the engine and lights. Jeff went for the door handle but a hand on his knee told him to wait. The North Carolinian turned and looked at Adam with a questioning look on his face. Their eyes locked once again. Jeff soon found himself lost on planet Adam again but this time Adam was wandering around on Planet Jeff Hardy. Suddenly the blonde’s hand jerked away from Jeff’s knee and his head snapped to the side. “Lets get our stuff.” He voiced hastily grabbing the keys and the bag containing their drinks. Jeff sighed, so close yet so very far away was he. Adam had the trunk open by the time Jeff got around to the back. “Can you hand me my bag please?” Jeff pointed at his purple gym bag. Adam dropped his head as though in deep concentration before answering. “No.” He simply stated. “Umm… okay.” Jeff eyed him strangely leaning past him to grab the shoulder strap to his bag. “No, put the bag down. If I don’t say this now, I’ll say it the wrong way when I’m drunk.” Adam’s eyes met Jeff’s for the third time as his hand gripped the younger mans preventing him from grabbing his bag and running. “Say what?” Asked Jeff, slowly moving his hand from the trunk. Adam look toward the direction of the hotel and then back to Jeff. He took a step closer bringing their bodies only inches apart. This gave Jeff an amazing feeling. He loved being close to Adam and right now his heart was on fire. Could this really be happening? Adam linked his fingers with Jeff’s at his side and used his free hand to place at the back of Jeff’s neck. With one slow, careful movement Adam pulled Jeff in for an amazing embrace. His lips brushed gently against the younger mans as if asking permission to go farther. Jeff was more than happy to allow more contact to ensue! He pressed forward and before he knew it their lips were pressed together , their fingers linked, and the fingers on Adam’s free hand were tangled in the multicolored locks that he liked so much. Adam’s tongue brushed against Jeffs top lip, begging for entry which was granted. Their tongues did battle for almost a minute. Jeff’s body was reacting very quickly. The small tightness in his thighs turned into a huge hard-on. Adam apparently noticed the bulge through Jeff’s baggy black pants seeing as his hand moved from his hair and down to his crotch. The young freak moaned into Adam’s mouth, biting his bottom lip gently. “Jeff,” Adam voiced out of breath after breaking their harmonious embrace, “I’m in love with you.” Jeff could have touched the sky in that instant. He could’ve done four back flips, a somersault, and a headstand for the Olympics and have his own gold medals like Kurt’s! The situation was all but funny, but he found himself laughing. “I love you too Adam. You don’t know how bad I’ve wanted to say that!” Jeff leaned down and kissed Adam once again. “Yes I do.” “Yes you do what?” Jeff inquired brushing Adams hair with his fingers. “Know how bad you’ve wanted to tell me that.” Adam smiled secretively and grabbed his two bags from the trunk. “And how do you know this?” Jeff stressed the word how. “I read your journal.” Adam snickered stopping as Jeff stepped in front of him. The two smiled before engaging in another heart pounding, passion filled kiss from the stars. Finally planet Adam and planet Jeff had gotten into orbit. No more hiding, no more pain. “How did I fall in love with you?” Jeff asked with a grin grabbing his lover and kissing him with every ounce of love and affection his small body contained.
