Paul stuck the key card in the door and pushed it open with his shoulder. He sighed heavily as he dumped his bags on the floor and collapsed on the bed. He lay staring a the ceiling for a while, wondering what his wife would be up to right now. She was at home in Connecticut with their two precious daughters Aurora and Murphy while he had just finished a show here in Cleveland. This was the worst part about being a father, being away from home and not seeing them everyday. It hurt like crazy. Not only did he miss the kids but he missed his wife terribly. Although she was at most shows and worked pretty much 24/7 during her pregnancies, since they had their second baby she decided to slow down a bit and take each day as it comes and enjoy being a mother for a while. He missed her smile, her laugh, waking up next to her in the morning. It was crazy. This used to be the best part of his job, travelling the world, seeing different places and cultures, all that withstanding, wrestling was his passion, he loved it and wouldn't give it up until he knew he had too but since becoming a father, he would much rather be at home with his beautiful wife and children. He glanced at the digital clock at his bedside. The red lights made up the numbers 7.45.
'Time for a quick shower' he thought, picking himself off the bed and grabbing a towel and heading for the bathroom.
He called her on the road
From a lonely cold hotel room
Just to hear her say I love you one more time
But when he heard the sound
Of the kids laughing in the background
He had to wipe away a tear from his eye
A little voice came on the phone
Said daddy when you coming home
He said the first thing that came to his mind
Dressed in sweatpants and one of his old DX t-shirts Paul sat on his bed and took another glance at the clock. 8.15
Bedtime, was the first word that sprang to his mind. Always a fun time in the Levesque household.
He battled with himself, phone now or phone later. He picked up his cellphone and dialled the all to familiar numbers. He heard four rings and the a shuffle of bodies and words and a clatter and then...
"Daddy!"
"Well hello there."
He heard that laugh, one of his favourite sounds.
"Daddy! Its me!"
"Who's me? I don't know anyone called me…" this conversation could go on and on sometimes but he knew she loved it.
"Rora! Its Rora daddy!" he laughed to himself, Aurora couldn't quite say her name perfect yet but she was getting there.
"Ah, Aurora Rose, how are you princess? Are you being a good girl for mama?"
"Yes daddy, I being a a good girl and Murphy is too."
"Well that's good, im glad to hear it. Shouldn't you girls be in bed now?"
"Yep but mama said we could stay up until you phoned but we haves to go to bed now because mama is giving me 'the look'" he heard her voice quieting near the end as if it was a secret.
Paul laughed, she was one smart kid. At only 5 years old she could read her mother like a book.
"Uh oh, you better go to bed then darling, we don't want mama getting mad do we?"
"Nope….I miss you daddy. Murphy does too and mama! When you come home?" this is the worst part of phoning home, every week he has this conversation with Aurora or Steph and it breaks his heart.
"Baby, I miss you too and Murphy and mama, I'll be home soon okay?"
"Kay, but you're already here right? In my heart, like you said last time? Right?"
"That's right baby, im already there."
"Good, but I gots to go to bed now, mama is still giving me the look and I fink she wants to talk to you."
"Okay Princess, night night. Sweet dreams."
"Night daddy. I love you."
"Love you too baby."
He heard more shuffling of the phone and a quiet voice came on "hold on baby."
"Okay."
Im already there
Take a look around
Im the sunshine in your hair
Im the shadow on the ground
Im the whisper in the wind
Im your imaginary friend
And I know Im in your prayers
Oh Im already there
She got back on the phone
Said I really miss you darling
Don't worry about the kids they'll be alright
Wish I was in your arms
Lying right there beside you
But I know that Ill be in your dreams tonight
And Ill gently kiss your lips
Touch you with my fingertips
So turn out the light and close your eyes
She had the phone in her hand while she was ushering the girls into their beds, he could hear every word and every movement which made him miss home so much more. Aurora was kicking up a fuss saying she wasn't tired all the while barely keeping her eyes open, while Murphy would go down without an argument.
He heard the click of two doors closing and then the sound of her voice danced through the phone.
"I miss you."
"I miss you more."
"Somehow I doubt that."
"I don't." he replied softly.
"How are you feeling? Is everything okay?"
"Everything is fine, don't worry. The girls are being good and junior is kicking up hell." she giggled.
"That's what I like to hear." he laughed.
"Not when im trying to sleep though, it seems he is nocturnal. He'll sleep though the day and kick up holy hell at night." she complained as she tried to get comfortable in her bed.
"Put the phone to your stomach…"
"Paul what…"
"Just do it honey."
When he couldn't hear her breathing he knew she had.
"Hey junior, its daddy, stop giving your mama a hard time alright?" he said softly "easy on the kicking, she needs her rest."
Stephanie smiled to herself, he knew just what to say and the baby isn't ever born yet. This pregnancy was more of a shock than the second one, both she and Paul had decided to hold off having more kids for a while, they felt two girls was enough and then along comes junior. That was his name for now, they had both decided to find out the sex of the baby as soon as possible and much to their excitement they had conceived a baby boy. She laid her hand on her 5 month pregnant stomach as her husband spoke to their unborn child through the phone.
She felt the tears brim in her eyes, she missed him so much at night time. During the day wasn't as bad because the girls always kept her busy but at night, in their bed, she missed him the most. She missed his scent, the sound of his soft breathing as he slept or if they had just had an argument, the way his arms would slowly slip around her waist and pull her close to him, whispering how he was a jerk and didn't mean to get angry when it was her that was angry and did all the shouting. He would take the blame. She missed how he would tell her she was the most beautiful woman in the world and how he loved her more than words could say.
She put the phone back to her ear and spoke through the tears.
"He stopped kicking" she smiled
"That's good, you should get some rest while you can. I'll call again tomorrow okay?"
"Don't go, not yet. I miss your voice."
"Stephy, honey you need your rest. I promise I'll call you tomorrow morning and I'll come straight home tomorrow night."
"I miss you" she said as the tears started falling. "Stupid hormones." she whispered
Paul laughed, this was definitely her most emotional pregnancy.
"I love you Stephanie. And the kids. I'll see you tomorrow. Sweet dreams."
"I love you too Paul. See you tomorrow."
Im already there
Don't make a sound
Im the beat in your heart
Im the moonlight shining down
Im the whisper in the wind
And Ill be there until the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh Im already there
We may be a thousand miles apart
But Ill be with you wherever you are
Im already there
Take a look around
Im the sunshine in your hair
Im the shadow on the ground
Im the whisper in the wind
And Ill be there until the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh Im already there
Oh Im already
There
