Chapter 2: Mackenzi Anne
I looked down at the little girl in my arms. She looked like she was about to cry, I felt sorry for the little one.
"John, what is that thing?" Mike asked hesitantly.
"A kid, what the hell does it look like?" I replied with a raised eyebrow.
Mackenzi looked up at me with a glare hinting in her eyes.
I looked down at her, "What?"
"John, she's made because you said hell," Randy told me.
I looked over at him, "What are you talking about?" I asked him.
Randy gave a small smile. "I know the look, John. Alanna give me it whenever I swear," he chuckled lightly.
"You telling me I can't swear around her?" I bounced the small girl in my arms.
Randy shrugged, "You can, I guess, but you shouldn't…"
"God, I'm gonna die," I smacked my forehead with my hand.
I felt Mackenzi squirming in my arms and I looked down at her. Her face was set as a pout as she noticed everyone was staring at her. Her eyes soon glazed over, tears filling them.
"Ashley…"
She burst out in tears and I held her away. "Come take her!" I exclaimed.
Ashley stood up and rushed over, taking the screaming girl from my arms. "Shh, baby, don't cry," she whispered and bounced her slowly up and down.
"John, she's your kid!" Randy told me.
"And it's her responsibility," I pointed to Ashley and ran out of the room.
"John!" I heard Ashley's high voice call after me.
I heard footsteps running after me and I was soon jumped on. As soon as I turned, the person pinned my arms above my head. It was Randy.
"You are gonna get your ass back in there and see your child," he warned.
"What are you gonna do if I don't?" I asked him.
Randy gave me a look, "John."
"Ah, fine, now get the hell off of me," I pushed him aside and sat up. "Randy… I don't think I can do this…"
"Why not?" Randy asked me.
"Could you ever imagine, Cena 54 being a dad?" I asked him.
Randy shook his head, "No…" He wondered where I was going with it.
"Then why the hell should you think Never Give Up Cena should be?" I turned to him.
"John, you can fail at a lot of things in life, but being a dad is something you can't," Randy whispered. "When we had Alanna, remember how I didn't even wanna go near her?"
I nodded. "But Randy… it's different for you! You've known Alanna since the minute she was born. I just found out about her and she's almost four and I know nothing about her," I shook my head, "Unbelievable."
"John, this happened for a reason. Just because you haven't known her since the day she was born doesn't mean you can't start now," Randy told me.
"What if she doesn't like me, what if-"
"John, she's three," Randy stated.
"Almost four," I held up four fingers.
Randy shook his head and stood; he pulled me with him and looked me in the eyes. "I can guarantee she'll like you," he said.
I took in a breath and followed the younger man down the hallway. As we got back to my locker room, Randy opened it and held it for me. I took a deep breath and walked in the room.
"John, there's something wrong with you," Randy mumbled from behind me.
"Oh thanks, that's the nicest thing anybody has ever heard of me!" I exclaimed sarcastically.
"John, dude, I have to go," Ashley told me while staring at the sleeping baby in her arms. "Leah and Emily have an appointment and-"
"Go, whatever," I shook my head with a small smile.
Ashley smiled, "I love you, Johnny."
"I love you too, Ash," I kissed her cheek as she hugged me, careful not to wake Emily. "Bye."
"See ya," after Ashley had left with the girls I looked over to the couch and saw Mackenzi was sleeping on it.
"Well, I'm gonna go," Torrie stood up as did Melina and Maria. "I'll see you tomorrow, John."
"No, tor, don't leave," I whined quietly.
"You act so much like a baby," Torrie shook her head with a smile.
"Which makes people love me more," I pointed out.
"Because it's so damn cute," Torrie added.
I nodded, "That's what I go for," I winked at her, seeing as a blush appeared on her cheeks.
Paulie, Paul and Shawn stood up and walked to the door.
"What, you guys are leaving too?" I asked.
Shawn nodded, "I'm tired, y'know when you're my age you need to take a nap once in a while."
"Shawn, this is usually the time everyone goes to bed," Paul pointed out.
Shawn looked up at the clock showing that is was 10:00. "Oh, I see, well, night everyone!"
"Night Shawn!" Everyone called back.
After everyone had left beside Torrie and Randy I looked over to Mackenzi who was still asleep on the couch. I walked over and sat beside her and noticed she was starting to get up.
Torrie and Randy were quietly talking by the TV, not noticing what was happening. I bent over to look at Mackenzi's face and noticed her eyes were wide open. They were the exact same sparkling blue eyes I had, which made me feel good.
She sat up and rubbed her eyes sleepily. She looked around and opened her lips slowly, "Mommy?"
I bent over so she could see my face, "Mommy's not here, but I am. Do you know who I am?" I asked her.
"You John Cena," she answered.
"And I'm also your daddy," I told her.
"I no have daddy," Mackenzi shook her head.
"You do now, no mommy, just daddy," I whispered.
"Where mommy go?" She asked me.
"Mommy had to go somewhere, so she left you with daddy, are you ok with that?" I asked her.
Mackenzi nodded, "I ok," she replied sweetly.
I smiled at her, "Good. So…" I looked around the room and picked up her bag. "This is your bag right?" I asked her while motioning to the princess suitcase.
"Uh huh, see, has pwincess," she smiled proudly.
"Princess? Which one is this?" I asked her while pointing to one with a bright yellow dress.
"Bell, she's my favowite," Mackenzi grinned.
"She's your favourite? Why is that?" I asked.
"Yellow," she pointed to the dress.
"I take it you like yellow?"
Mackenzi nodded. "And this is my favowite toy," she held up an action figure I recognized as Spider-Man.
"You like Spider-Man, I never thought I would meet a girl who loved Spider-Man," I shook my head with a smile.
"I wove Spidey," Mackenzi told me.
"You do? Who else do you love?" I inquired.
Mackenzi reached into the suitcase and pulled out a very recognizable toy. "Him," she grinned.
"Me, you love me?" I laughed a little, "How many wrestlers do you have?"
Mackenzi unzipped the bag and opened it, revealing a whole bag of wrestlers and action figures. Half of the suitcase was toys, the other half was clothes.
"Ok, Miss Mackenzi, you need to go to sleep," I told her after she showed me some more toys.
"I no tired," she mumbled sleepily with a yawn.
I laughed, "Mackenzi, you are just like me, I know you're tired," I picked her up and noticed Torrie was asleep on the couch beside Randy who was watching Tough Enough.
Mackenzi shook her head. "No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"No!" Mackenzi shouted, making Torrie jolt awake.
"Mackenzi Anne," I warned.
Mackenzi looked up at me with tears in her eyes. "I no bad, daddy, I good."
When she said daddy I felt my heart warm, it felt so good to hear her call me that.
"I didn't say you were bad, Kenz, I was just giving you a warning," I said quietly.
"I no bad, I good girl, I no do anyting wong," she mumbled and started to cry.
"Randal Keith Orton, get your ass over here!" I yelled at him.
Randy ran over and scooped Mackenzi in his arms. "Baby girl, please stop crying. You're not bad; you're a good girl, ok?" Mackenzi didn't stop crying, she just whined and whined. "John, take her. She won't believe me, you have to tell her!"
I took Mackenzi from his arms and cradled her carefully. I bounced her up and down lightly. "Baby, don't cry. I didn't mean it. I love you, babes, please stop crying," I prayed silently.
Mackenzi still cried and I took in a deep breath. "Mackenzi, please stop," I whispered in her ear. Her cries soon became shuddered breaths and I let out a breath I hadn't known I was holding.
I cradled her in my arms and sat down on the couch, relieved she was done crying. "Oh thank the Lord," I mumbled as she fell asleep.
Torrie smiled. "I have to go, bye Randy," she gave him a hug and walked over. "See ya, John," she kissed my cheek and walked out. I smiled lightly.
As soon as she was gone, Randy sang loudly, "John and Torrie sittin' in a tree! K-I-S-S-I-N-G!"
"Will you shut up, Mackenzi just fell asleep, and don't gimme ay of that shit, Randal," I warned him and picked up my gym bag and Mackenzi's suitcase.
Randy rolled his eyes with a smile and grabbed his bag. As we walked out of the arena, I noticed every light was off and we were using Randy's phone light, how did I not notice that before?
As we got to the parking lot, I saw that there were still a few people here and a crowd of fans.
"Draw no attention to us," I warned Randy.
"Hey everyone, it's John Cena!" I heard JoMo's voice.
"Dammit, John!" I screamed.
Mackenzi jolted awake and began to cry. Randy and I looked up to see a whole bunch of people running towards us. "Run!" I yelled and held Mackenzi close to me as we booked it to Randy's rental car. We jumped in and locked the doors quickly, making Mackenzi start to cry again.
"Mackenzi," I groaned and rubbed her back as she cried into my sweater. "I'm here, babe, don't cry." I kissed her cheek and forehead and nose, making her giggle.
I smiled.
"Looks like someone's gettin' the hang of somethin'," Randy smirked as he started the car, causing people to back away, scared The Viper would run over them, which I bet he would.
"Daddy, where we going?" She asked me.
"Back to the hotel and then we're gonna get you to bed, missy," I tapped her nose.
Mackenzi giggled again and I saw Randy smile lightly.
"She has the most adorable laugh," I grinned at him.
"All little girls do, dude," he laughed.
"But this is my little girl," I whispered and looked down at her while she had her face pressed against the window of the car.
Randy let out another laugh. "Remember when you did that on the plane window?"
I laughed at the memory. "Good times buddy," I smiled widely.
"Daddy, who dat man?" Mackenzi asked while pointing to a guy walking on the side of the street.
"That, my girl… is a hobo," I replied.
"Why he dere?" Mackenzi looked up at me with big questioning eyes.
"Because he has nowhere else to go," I told her.
"Why?"
"I don't know, I guess he… didn't have a good life," I shrugged.
"Why?"
I looked down at Mackenzi and she had he hand pressed against the glass.
"I don't know," I stressed on the words.
Mackenzi looked up before giggling, "Why?"
I smiled and shook my head. "Ah, Mackenzi Anne Cena, I can tell I'm going to like you, kid," I ruffled her hair.
"Yeah, Bug, everyone's gonna love you," Randy reached over and tickled her stomach.
Mackenzi giggled and moved away from him.
I looked over, "Bug?"
Randy shrugged, "I think it suits her," he replied.
I shrugged too, "Try it out, see where it goes, Imma try Mack…"
"You're planning on changing her from a girly little girl to a tough little boy, aren't you?" Randy asked me.
"You, my friend, know me all too well," I grinned and played with Mackenzi's soft brown hair.
Randy shook his head with a small smile and continued onto the hotel, I could tell this was gonna be a good week.
I know, pointless chapter, but whatever, right? Just a filler, you'll get more and it'll be more interesting, don't worry. I just needed to get Miss Mackenzi Anne in there! :) So I hope you all enjoyed and please, please review!
