Amelia groaned a little as she woke up and headed to the bathroom in the hotel room she shared with Brett. The baby had decided to play soccer with her bladder again. But she smiled anyway as she rubbed her belly and calmed down the little boy growing inside. She wasn't surprised to find the room empty. It was like that most days now. Brett would be up and gone before she woke up working out with the guys or whatever. She'd always shrug it off and usually one of the girls would come and check on her. She had just two months left until the baby was born and then she'd be at home for a little while. Stephanie had agreed that she could do what Missy had been doing and work from home until the baby was old enough to travel. Right on cue, there was a knock on the door and she finished in the bathroom and waddled to the door to find Cody and Kara standing there with breakfast in hand.
"We brought breakfast. I hope you're hungry." Kara said walking in.
"I'm starving." Amelia laughed.
"Good. Where's Brett?" Cody asked.
"He is probably working out." She said sitting down.
"Okay. Well, Missy called. Emma is sick so she is staying home."
"Again? Poor Em has been so sick lately." Amelia said as she ate three of the donuts looking up at them. "What?"
"Nothing. I almost forgot how much pregnant women eat." Cody said. "But I must say, you've been the least crazy out of all the pregnant ladies I've had to deal with. Well, you and the other Mrs. DiBiase over here. There must be something mellowing in the DiBiase gene pool." Amelia laughed sadly.
"Is everything really okay?"
"Yeah, I…just wish Brett and I spent more time together is all."
"I'm sure things will settle down once little DiBiase comes." Kara added. "It did with Ted."
"I hope so."
Missy sat in the nursery with Emma in her arms. She had been running a temperature of 102.4 and was finally asleep. The doctor said it was another double ear infection. It seemed that Emma had had at least ten to fifteen double ear infections over the last year and half. She had had bruising after play group when the teacher said she didn't fall or anything. The doctor said it was just the ear infections causing her to bruise easily. Missy had told John that she thought it was more because Emma shouldn't be having that many ear infections but he said the doctor would know if it was something serious. He told her that she was just overreacting because of the hormones with the pregnancy. She was two months from her due date with their son.
She felt her phone vibrate and saw it was John. "Hey, baby." She said softly as to not wake up her daughter.
"Hey, how's Emma?" He said.
"She has a fever of 102.4. The doctor said it's another ear infection. He gave her some antibiotics." She said as she gently placed Emma in her crib.
"I'm sure they will help." He said trying to make her feel better. He knew how worried she was about Emma.
"They haven't been. She keeps getting them." She said walking out of the nursery.
"Baby, she will be fine. How are you feeling?"
"I'm fine and so is our son. I'm just worried about Emma."
"She is going to fine." He said soothingly. "I will be back soon. Try not to worry so much. Emma will be fine."
"I hope so. I miss you so much."
"I know baby. But just a few more weeks and I will be home to help when Noah is born. I love you Missy."
"I love you too."
"I will see you soon. I love you and Emma."
"I love you too. See you soon." She said before hanging up. She wished she could be as sure that Emma would be okay as he was. She just was certain it was more than ear infections.
Janessa smiled as she stood watching Nola, and the newest addition to their family, Claudia playing. She and Adam had fallen in love with the now 11 month old little girl six months before and the adoption had just been finalized. She smiled as Cody and Ricardo's daughter walked over to them too. She was watching the girls and waiting for Adam to come back from his meeting with Stephanie. He'd been complaining of numbness is his arms and pain in his back so Stephanie had insisted that he go see the doctor after Wrestlemania. He was meeting with Stephanie and the doctors to go over the results. She hoped everything would be alright.
Lauren walked into the locker room with Sophie. She smiled when she saw Nola, Claudia, and Lily playing. She put Sophie down with them and walked over to Janessa.
"How are things?" She asked.
"Pretty good. Adam is having a meeting with Stephanie and the doctors. I hope everything is alright."
"I'm sure it will be." Lauren smiled.
"I hope so."
"Aren't we missing someone? Like Emma Cena? The girls are inseparable." Lauren laughed. All of the girls were close. You rarely saw them without each other.
"Missy called. Emma is sick and she didn't want to bring her."
"Poor Emma. But that's probably good. We don't want the others sick if Emma is contagious."
"I agree." Janessa said. "So where's Randy?"
"Petitioning John for us to be Noah's Godparents." Lauren said laughing. "He wants more babies."
"Yeah?" Lauren nodded. "And for the look on your face you don't want anymore?"
"I don't know. I mean…He's so busy and I've got work and Sophie. We hardly get any time alone together as it is. I told him we would talk about it again." Janessa nodded. "Did you and Adam have any trouble deciding to adopt?"
"No. It was never a question with us. We always knew we wanted more babies." Lauren nodded.
"I just don't know if I do. We have so much going on right now. I'm not Missy, who gets pregnant just by being near John." Janessa had to laugh at that. "I just think we need to wait longer. Sophie is only a little over a year."
"You just have to talk to Randy about this. Be honest and open with him about things."
"Thanks." She hugged her friend.
Missy got up and headed to the nursery to check on Emma. She hoped her temperature was down. She walked in and saw Emma was awake.
"Why are you awake, sweet girl?" She said picking up her daughter. She felt her and could feel the fever in her. She got the thermometer and placed it in her ear. "104.5!" She panicked a little. "Okay, we need to get to the hospital."
She put Emma back in the crib and rushed to get dressed. Once she was, she grabbed Emma and headed to her SUV. She secured Emma in her car seat and headed to the hospital. She called John's cell on the way and got voicemail. "John, please call me. I'm taking Emma to the hospital. Her temperature is 104." She hung up and continued to the hospital. She hoped John would call.
She rushed into the ER with Emma in her arms. "I need to see a doctor. My daughter's temperature is 104." She told the receptionist.
"One moment." The receptionist began putting Emma's information into the computer. "Please take a seat and someone will be with you soon."
"No! You don't understand! I want to see a doctor right now!" Missy said walking toward the door that had opened when someone came out.
"You have to wait." The receptionist said to her.
"No! I will not wait. My daughter is sick and she is seeing a doctor now!" Missy ignored her as she walked back to where the nurses and doctors were.
"Ma'am, have you been triaged?" The nurse asked her.
"No but I'm not waiting out in that waiting room. My daughter is sick with a 104 temperature and I want her to see a doctor now!"
"I'll see her." One of the doctors said walking around the desk. "Please come this way. Nurse, can you come and get Miss?"
"Cena. Emma Cena." Missy said to him.
"Miss Emma registered."
"Of course." The nurse said following.
