A/N: this whole thing takes less than a week from Wrestlemania 18; where Triple h takes on Chris Jericho for the undisputed champion.
The title of the song is Broken by Lindsey Haun... I don't own anything, blah blah blah.
Enjoy and review!
Thursday
Stephanie walked in through the plain white doors, and registered with the receptionist.
"If you just wait their and Doctor Greene will be with you in a tick" Said the lady.
A few minutes later, she was called and sat down on the chair.
"So Stephanie, you're about 4 months along." said Doctor Greene, she continued "now Stephanie if you would like to lay down here we'll be able to see your baby" she smiled.
Stephanie did as she's told. Doctor Greene lifted her shirt up. "Now Stephanie this is going to be cold" she warned
Stephanie closed her eyes, because she's afraid that the result could be wrong and doesn't want to get her hopes high, but then her thoughts were interrupted by a heart beating. It's real. She's not dreaming. Stephanie dared herself to open her eyes, she did and she saw a foetus.
Stephanie covered her mouth, "I can't believe it" she said in a whisper.
"Now Stephanie, your baby is healthy and you're at your 14th week of pregnancy. I'll give you sometime to yourself to get ready. Congratulations" smiled Doctor Greene
"uhh, doctor, is it ok if I have a picture of my own and maybe the video tape?" asked Stephanie
"Yes definitely! But it'll take a couple of days, is Saturday ok for you?" answered Doctor Greene
"Yeah sure, but can you email it to my work address?" said Stephanie, Doctor Greene agreed and left the room.
Stephanie got herself together, headed out and shook hands with Doctor Greene.
She drove to her best friend's house, Amanda. Stephanie rang the buzzer.
"Hello?"
"Mandy it's Steph"
"Oh hey come in!" she replied and buzzed Stephanie in
"Gosh I haven't seen you in a long time!" Amanda told Steph, both women relaxed on the rich coloured sofa.
"Umm, well, how do I begin this... I'm pregnant"
Amanda spat out her water, obviously shocked.
"WHAT?!"
"I know right, 3 days ago I got a phone call from my GP and the woman said I'm pregnant" she explained then Stephanie paused as her eyes glossed with tears. "God, how am I gonna raise a baby, by myself?"
"Steph, you won't be alone, I'll be here for you." Replied her dutiful friend
With that the two women continued on with their conversation.
"So Paul, how are you doing?" asked the woman at his locker room door. Paul turned around and saw non other than Trish Stratus.
"I'm doing well, and what business is it that prompts you to be here?" asked Paul as he suspiciously eyed the blonde woman
"Look this Saturday, Vince is holding a party before Wrestlemania in WWE Headquarter; it's kinda like a good luck party thing. AND I'm wondering if you would like to go..." she said hopefully
"Give me one good reason why I should go with you?" paul said causually, folding his arms across his chest
"Because you want to show Stephanie that you're over her?" replied Trish
"What makes you think that?" Paul retorted quickly
"So you're not over her?" Trish challenged, narrowing her eyes at Paul
Paul was left silenced. "Anyway the offer stands, just give me a call" she said, and left the room.
"So, are you gonna tell Paul?" asked Amanda
"He won't listen to me, God, not even a word. He can't even look at" she said sadly "So this Saturday my dad is holding a party in the headquarters, wanna come? I know that Jenny is gonna meet me there, I just didn't have the time to call up on you and ask"
"Yup! I'm there! Since there will be hot men!" Amanda giggled, Stephanie then joined her. The two women continued to catch up with each other.
Wake up to a sunny day, not a cloud up in the sky When you're broken in a million little pieces Little girl don't be so blue When you're broken in a million little pieces Better days are gonna find you once again When you're broken, when you're broken When you're broken in a million little pieces
Then it starts to rain, my defences hit the ground
And they shatter all around, so open and exposed
I found strength in the struggle
Face to face with my trouble
And you're trying but you can't hold on anymore
Every tear falls down for a reason
Don't you stop believing in yourself
When you're broken
I know what you're going through
Don't let it beat you up
Hitting walls and getting scars
Only makes you who you are
Only makes you who you are
No matter how much your heart is aching
There is beauty in the breaking
Yeah
And you're trying but you can't hold on anymore
Every tear falls down for a reason
Don't you stop believing in yourself
When you're broken
Every piece will find its place
And you're trying but you can't hold on anymore
Every tear falls down for a reason
Don't you stop believing in yourself
When you're broken
Oh, when you're broken
When you're broken
When you're broken
"I'm gonna give you everything in the world, little 'un..." she sighed
Saturday
Paul was sitting on the bar with Kevin Nash; he did not have a clue what Kevin was talking about as he was busy scanning the room looking for someone and it certainly was not Trish.
That's when he saw her, walking in with her friends, Amanda and Jenny. She glowed in that golden dress that she was currently in. She looked radiant and pure beauty. "God, she's so beautiful" he thought to himself. As she greeted people, she can feel a pair of eyes on her. And that's when their eyes connected. She cut her eye at him before looking away. "What was her problem?" he thought. Paul was startled by a hand slapping his shoulder; he turned around to see his long-term friend Scott Hall holding cigars.
"Paul, how about we light these up, like good ole times!"
"Yeah alright"
The three men headed to a room.
"So, how've you been buddy?" Scott asked Paul, who seems to be in his own world
"Ok, I guess" Paul replied as he puffed on his cigar
"Paul what's up with you and Trish? Are you two dating or something?"
"No, we just came as friends nothing more..." Paul
"Paul, let me ask you one question, do you still love Stephanie?" asked Scott
The three women entered Vince's office.
"Oh my gosh, Trish and Paul? Really, that is sooo out of the blue? And why does it smell like cigar in here?" said Jen
"I know and I don't know" said Steph and Amanda in unison
"Steph, aren't you bothered about this?"
"Yes, no, should I be. I mean in a few months time, Paul and I are divorced he'll date on and find the woman of his dreams..." Stephanie stopped as her eyes glossed with tears. Amanda and Jen looked at each other and hugged Stephanie. Stephanie ran across the room to the bin and vomited.
"Do I smell that bad?" laughed Jen
Amanda handed a glass of water to Stephanie. "Oh gosh. Why is it called morning sickness when it's every hour?!" Stephanie asked, as she rinsed her mouth.
"Aww, steph it'll be alright!" said Amanda
"Yeah and steph, I don't think you should be at ringside tomorrow" Jen told Stephanie
"And why not?"
"Well, it was only a few weeks ago, when Paul showed he had no problem pedigreeing you through the announcing table, or did you forget about that?"
"Look, Paul maybe everything under the sun lately, but I know he'll never hurt me intentionally. It's the anger taking over" Stephanie defended
"Okay, well the only way to be safe is to tell him. Steph, if it's the anger and what caused that, is you lying about the most important thing in his life then, obviously he'll still be angry with you. You need to tell him Steph!"
"He's not going to listen to me! Hell, he won't even look at me let alone talk to me!"
"Err, Steph he did look at you genuinely but you cut your eye at him" Amanda reminded Stephanie
Stephanie blushed. "You saw that?"
"I think everyone did, but they can understand. Hell hath no fury over a woman scorned, right?"
"I don't know..."
Stephanie took out a video and inserted it on the video player.
The screen was dark but it started to get lighter, there was it. The heart beat. The three women gushed over the image and sound. Jen and Amanda were left teary-eyed. "That is beautiful" they both whispered. "I know" gushed Stephanie.
"Steph, there is only one question that is left un-answered. Do you still love Paul?" asked Jen
