Nikki Bella sighed as she let her feet dangle gently off the doctor examining table. All she could feel was the amount of anxiety that was beating at her chest. The idea of her being a mother was making her want to pass out, and just believe this was all a dream. How could a WWE diva, that is the face of the division, become pregnant at the prime of her career? All these questions were knocking at her brain as if they were waiting for answers.
The minutes went by as slow as they could as she awaited for Dr. Jenni. She placed a hand over her now flat stomach as if she was trying to find a way to feel something, but that was scientifically impossible due to the fact that if she was pregnant, she wouldn't feel anything for a few more months in. She looked down to her stomach that was adorned with a light pink sundress. She exhaled as she tried to focus on calming her breathing down, but that did not really help.
"Sorry to keep you waiting Nicole. I had to deal with some paperwork for a new client." Dr. Jenni said as she smiled warmly at her patient that she has been taking care of since she was a young adult consulting for birth control.
"Its fine. I don't have anywhere to be anytime soon." She said as she tried to keep a cool and collective face, but her mind was running wild with so much to think of. She studied as Dr. Jenni placed a clipboard that had Nicole's test results on it. She reviewed it a couple of times before flipping to the next page to make sure all the results looked affirmative.
"What does it say?" She dared to ask as she looked at the doctor who smiled looking up toward the twin.
"Congratulations Nicole! You are pregnant! The test came back positive, and you are a month and half in on your pregnancy journey!" She said as she handed a copy of the results over to Nicole who held a shocked expression. It was like the world stopped for a brief moment, and all she could hear was the last few words that was spoken to her ring over and over again as if in a constant loop.
She looked down to the paper, and saw the bold faced letters reading "positive" right next to her government name. She ran a hand shakily through her highlighted hair as she rubbed her nude glossed lips together.
"I will have one of the nurses set you up with premarital vitamins along with the next ultrasound schedule. I don't know if your going to continue on the road are you?" She asked as she was filling out some paper work about Nicole.
She thought about the idea of her continuing to be on the road since she was still very much young in her pregnancy, so working was not a problem, as long as she did not get in the ring. "I don't know if I will be yet. Can I call you with an answer tomorrow?" She asked hoping she could ask Brie, her twin sister, for some advice on what to do because she was on the verge of loosing her mind. It was too much to take in by herself, and she needed a helping hand as soon as possible.
"Not a problem! I will see you soon! Once again congratulations, and make sure to make your next appointment so I can run over some of your diet habits, and also speak on what to do on your road to motherhood. You can bring the father with you as well." She said with a warm smile as she clearly was unaware of Nikki's situation. The father was not even romantically involved with Nicole let alone someone she could call a friend anymore.
"Okay, thank you.." She said softly as she still tried to wrap her head around the idea of a fetus living inside of her stomach walls. She instantly got up from the table, and grabbed her phone from her Louis Vuitton bag. She dialed her sister quickly before exiting the doctor's room.
"I was in the middle of watching a-"
"I need to see you right now! I don't care if you are missing a few minutes of your stupid lifetime movie!" Nicole shouted as she sped walked to her Range Rover that her ex boyfriend, John Cena, bought for her as a birthday gift. They may not be together anymore, but there was no way she was giving back a car that was customized for her personal liking.
"Are you okay? You sound like your going slightly crazy." Brie said as she got up from her couch to place a bowl in the sink that she was eating ice cream from.
"You are right Brie! I am loosing it. Now please be a dear sister, and keep your door unlocked. I will be by your house in ten." She said before hanging up the phone, and starting up the ignition for her car. She leaned back in the front seat as she looked up to the roof of the car. Her eyes on the verge of tears as she tried to comprehend her life as it was. She felt a hot tear stream down her olive skin as she closed her eyes. She had no idea what to do, and did not know who to turn to. They ended things, and he was happy with his wife. How could she just pop up out of the blue and admit "I am having your kid." when he is probably planning to have a family on his own. Her heart ached as she remembered the night she conceived this baby. It was the most beautiful love making, and the most erotic night she has ever had in all her life.
She quickly wiped her tear away as she heard someone honk in the parking lot as they awaited for her to leave to take her spot. She let out a shaky sigh as she put the car on reverse. All she could do at this moment was listen to the sound of the radio as her heart beat continued to race.
Nikki entered her sister's vintage styled home making the alarm system go off in the house indicating someone stepped in.
"Its just me!" Nicole said giving her sister a sigh of relief as she walked toward her.
"Are you okay Nicole? You had me worried sick when you called me." Brie said as she engulfed her twin into a warm embrace. She could tell by just the look in her dewy brown orbs that her twin was beyond stressed out.
"Brie.. we need to talk.." She said as she looked at her sister seriously as she released her from her embrace.
"Yeah of course… do you want some tea?" Brie offered as she walked her sister over to the living room. She was clearly oblivious to how serious the topic of discussion was, but Nicole really did need something to calm her nerves.
"Decaf please.." Nicole interjected making Brie arch an eyebrow. Nikki didn't know if caffeine was bad for the baby, but she wasn't going to take her chances.
Brie nodded as she walked over to the kitchen that was near the living room. Nicole decided to stretch herself out to make herself comfortable. Her neck was killing her with extreme tension from all the stress that was accumulating. She rummaged through her handbag once again, and pulled out the note that he wrote for her the last time they saw each other. She reread all the words that the black ink marks spelled out. Her heart ached as she realized just how bad the predicament she was in. Here she was bearing this man's child, and they no longer have any connection with one another at all. She shook her head as she started to beat herself up for even getting herself involved in this situation, but it wasn't like her getting upset with herself was going to make the child she was bearing disappear.
"What you reading?" Brie asked as she placed two teacups on the coffee table in between the two couches.
Nicole dodged her sister's question as she straightened her body language up to take a sip of the hot beverage. She thought about how to say it. She could just spill it out, or beat around the bush. She pressed her lips together before placing the small white cup back on the mini dish it came with.
"Nicole? Are you in there?" Brie asked as she looked at her twin with a concerned face. She has never seen her sister so out of it. Normally Nikki is full of vibrant energy, and always had a mouthful to say, but here she was quiet as a mouse.
"Brie.. I have a confession to make.." She said as she tried to think of how to put the fact that she was having an affair with a man for the past year, but ended it a month and a half ago. The whole fact that she was carrying something so secretive and never told her twin was enough to hurt her sister. They told each other everything, and this was probably the first thing that was hidden from each other.
"Your scaring me Nicole.." Brie stated as she looked at her sister's expression change to sadness. Her eyes looking much more wet with tears forming in the corner of her brown chocolate orbs that matched her own.
Nicole wiped the side of her eyes before proceeding. She took a deep breath, and exhaled before placing a protective hand on her stomach. The action making Brie's eyes bulge out of her head a little.
"I'm pregnant..." She said as she looked her sister in the eyes to see Brie gasp aloud as she covered her mouth. The news being a total shocker as she got up, and squealed aloud.
"Oh my gosh! Nikki! This is great news! Although it would have been better if John was still in the picture, but I mean this won't be the first child to be brought up with a single parent. Gosh! I am so happy!" She said as she jumped up and down before rushing over to her sister. She hugged her gently before realizing Nicole was not returning the motion of affection.
"Nikki.. I thought you would be happy about this? You always dreamed of being a mother ever since we were little girls." She said as she looked Nikki in the eyes, but could see that there was something more to the story that she was hiding. The twin connection being a tool for her to see this.
"John isn't the father." She stated making Brie take her hand off her sister as she was taken back by the forbidden news.
"What do you mean he isn't the father Nicole?" Brie said as she got up and gave her sister a look of disbelief. Nikki refused to be victim of her judging eye as she got up, and walked past her sister to the giant window.
"Nicole… who is the father?" Brie dared to ask as she looked at the tears falling down her twin's face. She slowly walked up to Nikki as she kept a good distance between them. The sun shining through the window making Nicole's facial expressions easier to define.
Nikki looked down to her stomach as she let out yet another shaky breath. She didn't know what to do other than cry. This wasn't the life she expected when she was younger. When she pictured herself being pregnant, she expected the cookie cutter house, the husband, and the retired wrestling career, but here she was single, living in a house for herself alone, and reaching the peak of her career. Everything was all so confusing, and messed up.
"I'm sorry I just need some air." She said as she dismissed herself from the presence of her sister to escape to the backdoor of the house. The garden that Brie and Daniel grew being a part of her surrounding as she breathed in the crisp air. The relief of all the built up anxiety in her chest slowly being released.
Nikki took a seat down on the edge of the steps as she began to fidget with her dress. The sound of Josie, Brie's puppy, running over to Nikki's feet as it took a seat offering some comfort. She smiled to the animal before petting the top of its head causing it to wag its tail.
"Nikki.. you know I am not going to judge you.." Brie's voice spoke from behind Nicole making her turn around. The twin took a seat next to her as she looked at Nicole.
"I'm sorry for walking out on you… it's just a lot to take it..." She said as she smiled softly to Brie. Her eyes meeting her sister's similar ones. She can easily pinpoint the worry in Brie's eyes, and felt bad for leaving her in the dark for the past year. If anything, Brie should of been the one person she should of trusted about the affair.
"It's fine.. You don't have to tell me who the father is if you don't feel comfortable. We can talk about it when you are ready." She spoke softly as the wind slowly breezed through both of their hair. The sun kissing their shared olive skin tone as they heard the soft whispers in the air of the breeze. Nikki swallowed hard before speaking, before she knew it, she blurted out the answer to the big question.
"It's Roman… Roman Reigns..."
