Chapter 3: I wouldn't wanna be in your shoes

As she looked over at her fiancé, she smiled to herself. It had taken a long time for them to get here and the road had not been an easy one. She thought back to her life before she had met Shawn and sighed. . As Riley sits in her secret room wondering where her life took such a wonderful turn to a man who treats her like a queen, she smiles sadly as she goes through the photo album of them together.

Riley is a shy but sometimes outspoken women. She is very loyal to her family and friends. She met Aubree in high school and the two of them became friends quickly. And then there was Cody. Aubree introduced them and she felt like she was flying. She dated Cody for two years and things seemed to be going fine until she found out she was pregnant. Cody was thrilled and they even talked about marriage. But he was beginning his wrestling career and was enjoying it. And all the perks that came along with it. Most especially the girls. By the time she found out, she was almost 7 months pregnant. She moved out of Cody's house and rarely talked to him after that unless it had something to do with the baby. While Riley had done her best to move on from Cody and concentrate on her relationship with Shawn there would always be a connection because of their son Sebastian. Her mind flashed back to the day she found him with the girl in his locker room, the one she had seen at the bar with John Morrison a little earlier that evening.

****************FlashBack***************************

She walked down the hallway toward Cody's locker room and smiled as she carried the bag in her hands. She had just come from talking to Aubree and Stephanie and they had bought her the cutest things for the baby. She looked down lovingly at the baby bump that now was very evident under her clothes.

"Let's go show Daddy what Aunt Steph and Aunt Aubree bought for you." She said rubbing her hands over it slightly. She threw the locker room door open and the gift bag she held fell to the floor and tears began to well up in the corners of her eyes. Cody sat there looking at her, shocked and saddened. Maria on the other hand, showed no signs of guilt and smirked at her as she looked up from the couch where she was sitting.

"Riles, I can explain this." Cody began as he looked from his girlfriend to the woman who sat behind him on the couch.

"Can you? Can you really? I would love to hear this. I would love to hear why she is sitting in you locker room with her shirt off and her hands all over your junk. You know we are having a baby in a few months. We talked about getting married. But I guess none of that matters to you does it?"

"It does matter. I love you and I love our son. You have to know that. Riley please just give me a chance to explain. A chance to make this up to you. We can get past this. We can move on."

"Stop pretending it matters to you, you had your chance and you blew it." Was her only reply as she picked up her bags and left the room. She had run into Shawn in the hallway. There had always been an attraction there but she had been with Cody and was having his baby. He saw her tears and felt his heart break.

********************************End of Flashback******************************

Riley sighed to herself as she went into the room and looked at her son sleeping so soundly. He was an exact replica of his father. The same dark hair and eyes. The same half smile that made her heart melt a little more each time he showed it. Her hand fluttered over her stomach for a brief second and she walked back into the other room and grabbed her cell phone off the table. She flipped it open and read the text message again.

It's done.

She sighed again and went back to bed with Shawn. She carried a secret that only one person knew. And she had to keep that person happy until the time was right.
