Chapter 11

Jeff waited a few moments before he reached for the phone and asked to be connected to Tasha and Lita's room. "Just a warning...Mood swing Jami is back." Jeff told Tasha when she answered the phone. "Oh no! What happened this time?" Tasha asked.

"I'm not all that sure. When I came in tonight she was curled up in a ball on the bed, crying. My first thought was the night she had the miscarriage. It turns out that she had been watching Patch Adams, a movie on TV. A sad movie. She went into the bathroom and I picked up Diva and asked what was wrong with Jami. Jami heard that and went off on me about people talking behind her back and etc. She was pretty pissed. She said that no one had even bothered to ask her what was wrong. So I asked and she said it was to late. then she left. So she might go to your room when she calms down. Or she may come here. I don't know. I just wanted to give you a heads up." Jeff said.

Jeff waited for a few minutes before going to bed. Before he had fallen completely asleep, he heard Jami come in. She went to the dresser and took two pills with water. Then she slipped into bed next to Jeff. Jeff feigned sleep and rolled over and put his arm around her. His hand was resting on his stomache when he could have sworn he felt something move

The next morning Jami was up before Jeff, all packed and ready for the trip home. The kittens were in their pet carriers. Jami placed a kiss on Jeff's forehead and gently brushed his hair back from his face. She watched him sleep for a moment before going to her suitcase and getting two more pills to take. Then she left the room to meet Tasha and Lita.

As teh girls piled into the car Tasha and Lita noticed the subtle bruises on her arms. "where did those come from?" Lita asked. "I think they came from last nights match." Jami guessed.

"Okay...well, Danny is going to meet us at your place later this afternoon to shoot the laid back photos and tomorrow we will do some other shots." Tasha explained.

"that'll work for me." Jami said as she climbed into the backseat. "wake me when we get there." she said. Tasha and Lita just looked at each other, knowing better than to say anything now.

Finally they arrived at Jami's house. They gently woke her up by telling her to get her ass out of the car. Jami grabbed her suitcase and unlocked the door to her house. The first thing she did was let the kittens out of their carrier. They ran around exploring their new surroundings.

Jami quickly checked her fridge to see if Jeff's dad had restocked it like he often did when he knew they were coming home. Yep, it was full of every kind of food and drink you could think of. She loved her father-in-law. He was always looking out for them. Especially Jami. She was the little girl he had never had.

While Tasha and Lita settled into their rooms, Jami checked the mail, not finding much of anything to interest her. She listened to her messages, not finding anything there that required her immediate attention either. She made her way up to her room, throwing her suitcase on the floor.

Jami laid down on the bed, inhaling deeply. It smelled like Jeff. It always smelled like Jeff. She could swear the Gilbert Hardy sprayed his cologne on there when he knew they were coming home, especially when SHE was coming here without him. Jami giggled at the thought.

Then she reached for the phone to call her father-in-law to let him know that they were there. "So, when am I going to get a grandbaby?" Was one of the first things out of his mouth. Jami smiled, Gilbert wanted a granddaughter to spoil. "Whenever one decides to pop out." she told him. "So, you two ain't doing anything to prevent it?" Gilbert asked in his rough voice. "Nope, no prevention here." Jami said, trying not to laugh. This was as close as they would ever get to a sex talk.

"Don't think I dont' know that you are over there trying not to laugh, little missy. But I'm just going to tell you this. You dont' get a grandbaby for me to spoil soon, I'm going to spoil Jeff. Then he'll be hell-on-wheels after that!" Gilbert threatened. Jami giggled, "Anything but that. he's already spoiled enough as it is." Jami teased back.

"Now listen here girlie. That ain't all my fault. You are the one that let him build a volacano in your yard. So you be doing a little spoilin' too!" Gilbert reminded her. "yes sir." Jami said. After a few more moments of conversation she hung up the phone, after convincing him to come over later and let Danny get a few shots of him with the girls.

Jami went down to the kitchen where she could hear Tasha and Lita moving around. "Hey women, Gilbert is going to come over later to take a few shots with us." Jami said, grabbing a water out of the fridge.

"Okay, but if he tells me to go to my room AGAIN! I'm not going to be very happy." tasha said. "All you have to do is give him a teary eyed look and bat your eyelashes at him. He'll be putty in your hands. Ask Jami!" Lita laughed. Jami nodded. It was true. Gilbert was a sucker for what he called, "Gilberts Girls."
