June 25th 2018, 30 minutes earlier...
Finn opened his eyes, the 36 year old seeing 28 year old Amanda looking out the window of their room at Bayley's home… and he stood up, walking over and wrapping his arms around her shoulders.
"Couldn't sleep?" Finn asked.
"I wish we didn't have to hold Raw tonight, on this date… 11 years, it's been since…" Amanda replied.
And Finn held onto her, helping her sit down on the bed… not because she had trailed off but because she looked like she was going to be sick.
Finn grabbed the mini trash can and Amanda threw up into it, Finn lightly rubbing her back even after she stopped.
Finn went and flushed it before washing his hands and returning to Amanda, who was still sitting up.
"I'm sorry, I don't know what's gotten into me lately." Amanda responded as Finn helped her lie down, tucking her into the bed.
"You were feeling like this yesterday, Darlin'." Finn replied.
"Not for long, it stopped at around 1 in the afternoon." Amanda responded. "Finn, don't give me that look, we've been careful." She replied after he looked at her, knowing she was trying to deny it out of shock alone.
"Well…" Finn replied nervously.
"The protection we used… it backfired, didn't it?" Amanda questioned, Finn nodding… and Amanda lightly swatting his left shoulder.
"I know, Mandy, we agreed that it would be planned… but sometimes things just don't go to plan." Finn responded.
"They don't… so what do we do now? The last time we slept together was April 30th." Amanda replied, counting the weeks. "Which puts me at almost 2 months." She responded.
"First thing we do is go to the doctor's office to make sure… and try not to wake Bayley's friends." Finn explained.
"Max and Chloe was what she said their names are, right? Did Bayley say how she met them?" Amanda questioned as Finn helped her sit up so they could get ready for the day.
"They had met after Max and Chloe's hometown was abandoned after a tornado in 2013…" Finn responded, helping Amanda stand up and helping her lean against him. "Are you gonna be sick again, Love?" He asked.
Amanda rushed off to the restroom and Finn followed after her, crouching down and rubbing her back as she threw up.
Max opened her eyes, concerned at the noises and lightly shaking Chloe… and Chloe opened her eyes.
"What's going on?" Chloe asked sleepily before she heard the noises. "Ah, looks like you were right." She responded.
"Yep. Life throws surprises at people, theirs is a child." Max replied.
"Now to just make sure their little family stays safe." Chloe responded.
"You don't trust their co-worker?" Max asked.
"That bald headed Cujo unnerves me. And not much unnerves me." Chloe explained, Max knowing that she meant Baron.
"For some reason, he disapproves of Finn and Mandy being together." Max replied.
"Baron's not right in the head." Chloe responded.
"Hell yeah he's not." Max replied before they kissed…
Present time…
Amanda and Finn waited nervously… and Finn entwined his right hand with her left one as they waited for Cali to return.
"Hey, we're gonna be okay, Darlin'. Don't stress." Finn responded.
"I'm just wondering what's taking so long. Unless Cali had to stall someone from walking into the room, something tells me that Max and Chloe got curious and followed us. Can't really hold it against them though." Amanda replied.
Max and Chloe waited in the waiting room, looking at each other.
"I bet they're having twins." Max replied.
"You sure you didn't just rewind after seeing the result already?" Chloe asked in response, Max just looking back towards the wall with a smile at Chloe's humour. There were very few people who knew what Max could do, she'd kept it that way.
"After rewinding a few times caused a tornado to take out an entire town?" Max replied.
Chloe looked at Max again after that. "That was because you stopped me and a dozen others from dying when we were supposed to. Taking a sneak peek at the future doesn't change anyone's fate."
"No it doesn't but it doesn't hurt." Max replied.
"So?" Chloe asked.
"I was only there for a few minutes but I saw the little one." Max replied quietly, Chloe smiling.
"Through the scan? Does it look okay?" Chloe asked.
"Nothing bad that I could see. They weren't too happy I barged in mind you but luckily…" Max help up her hand, which Chloe could see shining an amber-red for a split second. "...it never happened."
In the examination room, the heartbeat echoed… and Amanda and Finn smiled.
"Hard to believe a human life starts out that tiny…" Amanda responded as Finn held her right hand.
"It is… but that's our little miracle, Love." Finn replied before they kissed.
At the SAP Center, Amanda, Finn, Max and Chloe heard Baron arguing with Vince.
"I am not putting her in that ring until further notice. As for why, it's a personal matter between her and her fiance." Vince explained.
"She's not getting out of it! You protect her too much, old man!" Baron responded angrily, Amanda about to go slap him but Finn stopped her and Chloe and Max turned to them.
"We've got this, you two." Chloe replied before she and Max found Baron, Amanda brushing a stray hair off of her oversized Balor Club For Everyone shirt.
"What do you twerps want?!" Baron asked.
"For you to stop putting Mandy and Finn through hell when they didn't do a damn thing to you!" Chloe responded.
"She's right, what's your problem with a couple who fit perfectly together?!" Max replied.
"Fit perfectly together? No, me and Rochelle fit perfectly together. Finn and Mandy are a match made in Hell." Baron responded.
"I don't know what your wife sees in you but it's clearly not there. Not genuinely there, at least, does she know the real you? That you have no tolerance for either Finn and Mandy or me and Chloe? Maybe I should tell her what you're really like when you're away from her." Max replied, Baron turning incensed.
"You don't know who the fuck I am or what I'm like!" Baron responded, stepping towards Max which caused Chloe to subtly move her hand towards her right pocket.
"Maybe not… but you'll show me without ever knowing it." Max looked at him with narrowed eyes, Baron confused as to what she meant. He looked towards Amanda and Finn for only a moment… then when he looked back at Max, became startled. Suddenly she was looking at him in a mix of anger and shock, her left hand on that side of her face.
She lowered her hand, exposing a quickly forming dark mark to the side and below her eye, looking down at her hand for a moment before turning towards Amanda and Finn. "Don't you ever let him near what you have." She spoke through gritted teeth before quickly heading for the bathrooms to get some cold water soaked tissues for her rapidly bruising cheek.
The thing that Amanda, Finn and Baron found strangest was that the mark almost exactly matched the size of Baron's hand yet they all hadn't seen him even touch her.
Finn guided Amanda away from Baron as he tried to apologize.
