Trish Stratus received a text from one of her best-friends brother telling her that he, along with three others, were standing outside her door waiting for her to open the door so they could go inside and surprise a certain red-head for her birthday. It was 11:50 pm on April 13, only a couple of more minutes until her best-friend's 29th birthday. The red-head had already went to bed an hour ealier but that wasn't going to stop her friends from surprising her. They would just wake her up.

Trish opened the door quietly to the house she was living in with her best-friend, Lita Dumas. The house belonged to Lita's grandmother who passed away a couple years ago. She left the house to her and her brother, who agreed to let Lita have it since she had loans to pay for school. It was easier for her to pay her loans off without having to worry about paying for rent. It was a four bedroom house so Lita invited her two best-friends to move in with her so it would make it easier for the three of them and they wouldn't have to find a living area else where. Trish moved in while her other best-friend was now married to her brother. Funny how things work sometimes.

"Okay. Try and be quiet." Trish whispered as she let the three males and female in to the house.

"We're gonna wake her up soon anyways so why does it matter if we're quiet or not?" The loud mouth of the group asked.

"Because idiot," Lita's brother began to say, "We want to wake her up at exactly 12 o'clock."

"Dave's right John, so shut up." Victoria said to John Cena as she, along with John, Randy Orton, and Lita's half-brother, her husband, Dave Batista, made their way to the living room.

"Vicki, you have the cake?" Trish asked her friend.

"Yup. Dave has it." Victoria said pointing to the cake in her husband's hands. "I have candles too but I think that's just going to make her upset. She was getting depressed about turning 29. I'm 31, I don't know why she's getting upset."

Trish snorted. "You're actually married so your age doesn't matter all that much."

"Hey. I told her I'd marry her in a second." Randy replied.

"No you won't." Dave responded smacking Randy on the back of her head.

"Uh you guys, John's not here. I think he took a head start. He went already. Let's go before he wakes her up without us and ruins this." Victoria said making her way to the red-heads room with the others in tow.

"What are you doing?" Trish asked John when they were all finally in Lita's bedroom. He was on his phone on the bed besides a sleeping Lita, looking for something.

"I'm gonna turn on that Eminem song I know she loves so much and put the phone against her ear. That should wake her up."

Dave smirked at John. "You know she's going to kill you right?"

John found the song he was looking for her and did as he told the others. He put the phone speakers against Lita's ear who woke up jumping out of her bed. She saw the person who had the phone in his hand and started to hit him. "What the hell is wrong with you Cena?! I'm trying to sleep. And if you were going to wake me up that way, you should have found a better song." Everyone ignored her as they started to sing 'Happy Birthday' to her. "This couldn't wait until the morning?"

"Stop being so grumpy. It's your birthday. Now blow out the candles and make a wish." Victoria was holding the cake in front of Lita. She opted to go with the candles. Everyone in the room did know how old the red-head was turning so she didn't think Lita would mind.

"I wish you guys would leave."

"Not until we get cake. I was promised cake and I'm not leaving without it." Randy replied.

"Eat your cake and leave. I actually have an important day at work tomorrow." She turned to look at her sister-in-law. "You do too Vicki. We're working on the same case." Victoria and Lita worked at the same law firm,McMahon & Associates. They were both paralegals. Lita never wanted to go to law school, but the legal world was interesting to her. Victoria went for a semester and hated it and realized she didn't like it and like Lita, she liked the legal world.

"We'll be fine. Plus, we're not the only ones who have work. Let's just enjoy the next few minutes, let Randy eat his cake and you can go back to sleep."

Lita rolled her eyes. "Fine, give me a knife." She took out her hand waiting for someone to give her a knife.

"First you have to promise you won't stab someone with it." Dave joked.

Lita stuck her tongue out at her older brother. "Shut up Dave and just give me the damn knife." She just wanted to go back to sleep. The longer she stayed awake, the more she wanted to talk to someone but she didn't want to talk to him until later.

"O yea," John snorted, "that's gonna make us to give you the knife now."

"First make a wish and blow out the candles." Trish said, Lita rolling her eyes but complying. Trish handed her the knife. "So, what did you wish for?"

"That you guys would leave and let me go to sleep." Lita cut the cake. "Okay, one of you can just cut the rest and hand out the cake."


They all ate their cake and talked about what Lita wanted to do for her birthday. She didn't want to do anything but since her birthday fell on a Friday, Trish insisted they all go out that night. They finalized their plans for later that night saying their goodbyes to the red-head, who thought that since she was already awake and since the person she wanted to talk to was already there, she would just talk to him now.

"Wait a minute John." Lita grabbed John's arm as he was about to get up from beside her on the bed and make his way out. "I want to talk to you about something. Please." That made Dave stop right in his tracks turning around to look at his sister and her best guy friend. "Chill out Dave, he's not going to do anything."

"I won't." John promised.

"If you do I'll kick your ass." Dave threatened.

"Trust me, I know that so I won't."

"Fine. Bye Li. See you later." Dave looked back at John again. "Do anything and I'll kill you." Victoria and him left the room and left the house going back to their own house a couple of minutes away.

"Uh. John, you just want me to wait for you downstairs then?" Randy asked his best-friend who was also his roommate.

"Duh. Unless you want to walk 10 miles back to the apartment."

Randy rolled his eyes. "I guess I'll be waiting downstairs then."

"Close the door." Lita replied. Randy was confused why she wanted to close the door but he obeyed.

"I thought you had work in the morning?"

"I do, but you idiots decided to wake me up and I wanted to talk to you and you're already here."

"Couldn't wait until the morning?"

"Like I said, you're already here and it's going to keep bugging me." She wasn't avoiding looking at John while she thought of what she was going to say.

"Okay."

She took a few moments before she jumped into what she was going to say. She had a whole speech planned out but she forgot all about it right then. So instead, she just blurted it out, finally looking back up at him. "I want to get married and I want to have a baby."


To say John was shocked would be an understatement. It took him a while to process what the red-head next to him just said. "Can you repeat that?" He wanted to make sure he heard her correctly before he said anything.

"Okay so I had a whole speech planned out and I just blurted that out. Not the right way but I was watching 'Friends' this on-"

"Oh yes." John interrupted her. "Every plan should start with that. An episode of 'Friends'."

"Just let me finish before you freak out."

"Too late."

"Please." Lita pleaded.

"Go ahead."

"Like I said. I was watching 'Friends', the episode where Monica and Chandler get engaged and Phoebe tells Rachel how she has a back up plan with Joey. If neither of them is married until they're 40, they'll just marry one another. So I thought, I'm hopeless when it comes to men, for example, Christian. So anyways I thought it would be so much easier if I could just marry my best guy friend. I thought 40 would be too old to get married because my ovaries would be dried up by then and I wouldn't be able to have children so I thought, why not 35. But at 35 that's still a bit difficult for me to get pregnant and have a healthy pregnancy and delivery and my baby and I could have health problems so I thought that I would ask you to be my back up when we turn 35 if neither of us are married yet and you could, I don't know, lend me your sperm when I'm 30 and still have no kids." Lita finally took a breath after she let out her plan, biting her nails which she did a lot of when she was nervous. Hoping John wouldn't think she was too crazy and would agree to be her back up.

John took a minute to let that all sink in before he spoke up again. "Let me get this straight. You want to get married if neither of us is married by the time we're 35?" He continue when Lita nodded in response. "And you want me to give you my sperm when you turn 30 if you haven't found someone by then?" She nodded once more. "What if I'm in a relationship, you know me and Maria have been talking again. What if she doesn't want me to have a baby with you?"

Lita rolled her eyes. She never liked his on again off again girlfriend. She wished she would permanently become his off again forever. "You wouldn't have to tell her. We could keep this a secret. You wouldn't even have to be in the baby's life."

John looked hurt when she said he wouldn't have to be in the baby's life if he did end up having a baby with her. "If I did end up having a baby with you, I would be in that child's life no matter what. I wouldn't just abandon either of you. Plus, I'm your best-friend, you're kind of stuck with me."

"So was this weird of me asking you?"

"Just a little." John answered truthfully.

"You can think about it because I know I thought a lot about this. Please don't immediately say 'no'. Just think about it. Please."

"Just a few questions."

"Okay."

"Why me?" He wanted to know why she was asking him and why not someone else.

"Because I want to have a baby. I know I'm about to turn 30 next year and I know I won't be able to find someone by then. I don't want to find someone random at a sperm bank. It would be easier to ask you because that way I know about your family background and your family's health background as well. You're my best-friend. I didn't want to ask Randy because I don't think he would take this seriously. I mean, I'm sure he would make a great father one day, even though you don't have to be in the child's life, but I trust you more for something like this."

"You're 29. You said if you don't find someone by 30, then you would want to have a baby with me. Why not now then? Do you think you'll find someone in one year to have a baby with?"

"I know I won't find someone in one year but I'm not totally prepared right now. I thought it might take a while to convince you. I'm giving you time to think as well as time for me to find out more information and stuff about this process. You know, if you're ready and willing, this can happen in like a few months. It also gives me plenty of more time to establish myself and be able to provide for my baby."

John started to rub the back of his neck which he did a lot of when he was nervous. "Looks like you already researched a lot."

"Yea. I'm totally serious about this. I'm giving yo..."

"Okay." He interrupted her.

"What?" Was he agreeing to her proposal?

"I'll do it."

"Which one?"

"Both, but most likely the baby. I'm sure we both will find someone in six years and don't have to settle for one another."

"Seriously?!" She was so excited he agreed. She was so worried he would laugh in her face and say 'no'.

He smiled at how happy she looked. "Seriously."

"OHMYGOD! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!" She hugged him.

"This is what you wished for isn't it?" He asked her hugging her back.

"Yea." She started laughing. "Just don't change your mind. Please"

"I won't." He ended the hug and looked her straight in the eye. "But I do want to be in the child's life and I want to act like the father as well."

"Yea, that's only fair."

"But how are we going to tell everyone? Your parents? My parents? What if they don't agree with this?"

"I thought about that but I'm an adult. I can make my own decisions. So can you. I think they'll all be reluctant to support us at first, but they'll get over it and they'll just want us to be happy."

"What about Dave? He might want to kill me." He actually worried the most of what Dave would say. He scared him sometimes especially where Lita was concerned.

"I can deal with him." She reassured him. She really hoped she could in fact handle her brother.


Lita is 29. Dave is 34. Victoria is 31. John, Randy, and Trish are 28. Randy is going to be a year younger so he just turned 28 and John would be turning 29 later that month. Same with Trish, she would be turning 29 later that year.

Review and tell me what you think. Thanks for reading. =)
