Chapter 3

It was a Monday night, which could only mean one thing: Time for RAW.

Sasha nervously paced backstage; Stephanie had asked her to cut a promo to explain why she'd be out of action for the next year and a half.

"Maybe lead off with how much you love the fans," Sasha thought to herself, still pacing around. "No, start out with telling them how much you love wrestling."

Sasha groaned in frustration and sat on a production cart.

"Just breathe, Sash." Sasha whispered to herself.

Sasha leaned her head against the wall and shut her eyes.

"Say it from the heart, people like that." Sasha thought. "Tell them about your life long dream of being a wrestler is being halted by another life long dream..." Sasha gently rubbed her belly. "Being a mom."

Sasha smiled to herself as she imagined holding her baby for the first time.

The last two days had been stressful to say the least. But the feeling of becoming a mother soon, almost made the feeling go away.

"It doesn't matter who the daddy is," Sasha whispered, rubbing her belly. "I will love you unconditionally."

Sasha opened her eyes and smiled to herself. She hopped off of the crate and headed towards Gorilla.

"Oh, great." Sasha thought, seeing Roman waiting by Gorilla also.

Sasha glared at Roman as she sat down.

Roman gave Sasha a sheepish smile. "Hi." He muttered.

Sasha rolled her eyes. "Don't talk to me right now." She snapped.

Roman sighed. "I don't know what you want me to say, Sasha. I'm Universal Champion, I gotta deal with a lot of shit right now. I can't be bothered with a baby, ok?" He said.

"Dude, what the hell?" Dean asked, approaching Roman. "You can't bail out on Sasha."

Roman crossed his arms. "I don't get why we're supposed to be all worked up about this. It might not even be mine or yours, Dean." He said.

Dean shrugged. "What if it is, huh? What if she's carrying a little Roman baby?" He asked.

Roman shrugged. "Regardless, it's not my problem." He sneered.

"What's not your problem?" Seth asked, rounding the corner.

"Roman says it's not his problem if Sasha is having his kid." Dean said.

Seth glared at Roman. "The hell it ain't."

Roman chuckled. "I think it's best if you two just settle down before anyone gets hurt." He threatened.

Sasha clutched at her stomach and began to sob quietly.

"Fuck you, Roman." Seth said. He turned around and noticed Sasha crying. "Ah, shit."

Dean and Seth rushed over to Sasha.

"Everything ok, do you need anything?" Dean asked.

Seth wrapped Sasha in a tight hug. "Hey, it's gonna be ok, babe." He whispered.

"If you need anything, I'm here for you." Dean said.

Seth shot Dean a curious look. Dean quickly looked away from Seth.

"We done now? I got a match to wait for." Roman said.

Suddenly, Alexa Bliss appeared behind Roman and kicked him dead center between the legs.

"Oh, Jesus Christ." Roman groaned, falling to his knees and clutching at his groin.

"That's what you get, asshole." Alexa stated.

Alexa hurried over to Sasha. "You ok, sister?" She asked.

Sasha nodded. "I just don't want everyone at each other's throats about this." She said.

Seth shook his head. "We're fine, it's Roman you need to worry about." He said.

"Fuck you." Roman groaned.

"One minute, Ms. Banks." A producer reminded Sasha.

Sasha groaned. "I don't want to." She complained.

"Do you want me to come with you?" Seth asked Sasha.

Sasha shook her head. "No, I'll do it." She muttered.

Sasha waited by the curtain. Not before long her music played.

"Wish me luck." She said to Alexa, Dean, and Seth.

Sasha skipped on stage as the fans cheered for her. She felt how loud the ovation was in her chest. Sasha knew she was going to miss this feeling of joy and pride. Sasha smiled at the crowd and walked to the ring. Sasha entered the ring and took a microphone.

"What's up, Seattle?" Sasha yelled, making the crowd cheer louder.

Sasha sighed. "Now some of you may know that it's my life long dream to be a WWE Superstar; And for the past three years, that dream has been possible." Sasha paused and pointed at the crowd. "Mostly because of all of you."

The crowd continued cheering as Sasha gave them a big smile.

"Sadly though, I need to take some time off." Sasha said.

The crowd began to boo.

"That's because I'm going to be able to achieve another life long dream: becoming a mom."

The crowd roared in cheers and applause, making Sasha tear up.

"You guys are so awesome."

"Who's the daddy? Who's the daddy?" The crowd chanted.

Sasha's smile faded from her face.

"I... uh..." Sasha mumbled.

Sasha thought about the possible baby daddies; she honestly didn't know what to say.

Sasha cleared her throat. "Seth freaking Rollins that's who." Sasha said, laughing and making the crowd erupt.

"In a year and a half I will be back; and I'm bringing Seth Jr. with me." Sasha dropped the mic and laughed at the cheering crowd.

Sasha's music played again as Sasha made her way back through the curtain again.

Seth ran up to Sasha and wrapped her in a hug. "I love you so much." He whispered.

Sasha nervously glanced at Dean.

"I would've loved it if you said you didn't know." Dean chuckled.

Sasha smiled. "Technically, I was right; Seth is the dad regardless."

Sasha noticed Dean's expression change from joy to sadness.

"Right, no, I was just saying, cause there's the possibility of... Me being the dad." Dean muttered.

Dean scratched the back of his head and shuffled away. Sasha watched as Dean left.

Seth kissed Sasha on the cheek, snapping Sasha back to reality.

"Do you want to go out after my match?" Seth asked. "Or we could stay in."

Sasha nodded. "Yeah, I'd like a date." She chuckled.

Seth kissed Sasha. "Ok, I'll see you later." Seth said, walking away.

Sasha took a deep breath and started walking down the hall. Sasha looked around the corner and found Dean leaning against the wall.

"Hey," Sasha said, approaching Dean. "Everything ok?"

Dean simply nodded his head.

Sasha crossed her arms. "I don't believe you at all." She said.

Dean shrugged. "Who cares? It's not like you consider my feelings anyway." He said.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"There's just as good as chance that it's my kid and not Seth's."

"There's also Finn and Roman."

"Yeah, but they don't care about you like I do."

Sasha furrowed her eyebrows. "You just gotta chill out, Dean."

"But I can't, ok? I want this baby to be mine so fucking bad, Sasha. I want to raise this baby with you, not as a distant uncle or "family friend." I want me to be the dad, you to be the mom. I cannot fathom a life without you Sasha."

Sasha's eyes went wide. "What are you saying?"

"I just... I just want us to be together if this kid is mine."

Sasha sighed. "Dean..."

"I know, just forget it, ok?"

Dean adjusted his leather jacket, then walked away from Sasha.

"Sasha there you are, listen I was..." Alexa said. "Are you ok?"

Sasha realized she was crying, and wiped her tears.

"No, Lex, I'm not fine." Sasha sighed.

"Baby daddy drama?" Alexa asked.

Sasha chuckled and nodded her head.

"Was Roman being an asshole again?"

"No, Dean. I think he just told me he was in love with me."

Alexa gasped. "Oh shit."

"Oh shit's right."

"Why don't you come out with me and Finn tonight? You could use a night off."

Sasha shook her head. "I already promised Seth."

"Bring him along, we could have a double date."

Sasha chuckled, making Alexa smile.

"Sure, Lex. That sounds like fun." Sasha said.

Alexa squealed in delight and hugged Sasha.

"I'm so excited, I'll see you later." Alexa said, leaving Sasha.

The sudden thoughts of Dean crept back into Sasha's brain.

Sasha sighed. "I can't deal with this right now." Sasha thought.

Sasha pulled out her phone and texted Dean.

Sasha: I like you, but I'm with Seth right now. I can't have you two killing each other over me.

After a few minutes Sasha's phone dinged.

Dean: Ok.

Sasha sighed at the text.

Obviously Dean was suppressing his feelings, but Sasha didn't know what to tell him. Seth was already her boyfriend, but it was clear Dean liked her also.

Sasha nervously rubbed her belly. "Baby, help me." She whispered.
