I dont really even know about that address, I just chose an address and went with it for this lol.
And here we go, Chapter Four.
And theres times in life when it's okay to be scared to death. This was Maddie's turn. There were a dozen doctors and nurses in the room with her and they had shoved Alex and Randy out of the room. They were checking the heartbeat, to see if her water had broken, everything.
She closed her eyes and tried to ignore the sharp pain but nothing was helping. She was begging anybody close to her to make the pain stop and she would never go near a man again. It felt like a thousand knives were stabbing her in the stomach.
Randy sat across the room from Alex. She was on her phone talking to somebody about Maddie, probably one of Maddie's friends. He didn't know what to do. If he should call his parents and tell them he was gonna be a dad to a kid he was probably never gonna see anyway. He decided to call John, who was probably at home getting ready to go out.
It rang twice before John answered, "Hello?"
"Hey."
"What's up?"
"Long story but what are you doing tonight?"
"Why?"
"Because Maddie is in labor from what we've heard from the doctors and I can't stay here. It will drive me nuts seeing my son born and knowing that Alex will keep them from me."
"Wait, You and Alex talking and Maddie?" Randy could only imagine his face.
"Can you get a plane ticket, I'll explain it when you get here."
"Whatever man." With that, he hung up the phone and Randy could hear the dial tone.
Alex had heard the part about him not being able to stay there and see his son. "So what are you gonna do now Randy, run away from your problems again because you don't even want to fight to see your children?"
"It's a useless battle Alex. I will love my kids but like you said, they would call me daddy but would I really be their dad?" He felt like dirt for walking away but it had to be done. He had messed it up with her anyway, why try to get into his kids lives. "I don't want to Alex, but when it comes down to this, what can you do? I'm on the road four days of the week, leaving three days to spend time with family. I'd have jetlag so I'd sleep in, get so see them for half the day before they had to go to bed."
Why did he even have to do this? "I just want to see my kids, and be able to have them wake me up in the morning. I wouldn't do that. They'd wonder why mommy and daddy don't live together. It'd be like a divorce and we weren't even married. Having them grow up in seperate homes isn't worth it." He wanted to break down, but he wouldn't infront of Alex.
She sat there, taking it all in. She understood what he said. "I understand, I really do. You can come with John to their birthday parties or whatever if you want to see them." She looked away, she couldn't face him.
"Can I have one last hug?" He needed this. They both did. To feel eachothers touch one more time. Maybe Randy was being retarded but Alex looked beautiful pregnant with his child. Her faced glowed with happiness being pregnant. She stood up and smiled at him. She was going to break down after this. She walked over to him and wrapped her arms around his neck, the tears were falling now. He wapped his arms around her waist and rubbed her lower back.
"I still don't have the babies room set up. Can you do that for me and I'll mail you pictures of the babies when their finally together?" She whispered into his neck before looking up at him.
"Yeah. Where do you live and I got to have keys to get in."
"2326 Hazel Ave." Alex said as she dug threw her purse for the house keys. "Have John bring them back."
An hour passed before Alex heard anything from the doctors. "She's ready to to in for the c-section. We really don't know why he's early, he just is. You can come in if you want."
Alex nodded. She wouldn't miss this for the world.
Seeing him there now was overwhelming for Alex. He was three pounds but he looked tinier. She was scared. He wasn't breathing. What was wrong with her baby? He basically was her baby although she hadn't talked to Maddie about what she was going to do now that he had came so early. Was she going to move out right away? That would be best wouldn't it?
Starring at him through the incubator with iv's and the breathing machine hooked up to him made Alex want to run away from the whole entire thing. She couldn't though. She couldn't run away from him. Aaden Jonathan was going to be her life from now on, inbetween working and hoping that Leah made it to full term before making her apperance.
--------------------------
Maddie woke up, seeing all the balloons saying "Congrats on the baby boy." She looked at her stomach and noticed it was smaller. She was scared. What happened to him? Was he okay? She didn't want to leave Alex with a baby that wasn't going to live. She didn't even see that there was a guy sitting on the chair when she pressed for the nurses.
"You know the thing with nurses is that they will stand around and chit chat for ten more minutes before they come to see you." The voice was calm and Maddie jumped when she heard it.
"Wh - Who are you and where's Alex?"
"John." He pulled his baseball cap off before running his hand through his hair with his free hand, "She's in the nursery with Aaden."
"John? You mean, Randy's bestfriend?" He nodded. "Nice to meet you. I've heard a lot about you."
"Good I hope?" He looked at her questionly. It was her turn to nodd. She looked around the room to see if Randy had stuck around, which he didn't appear to be there. "Randy ran away again. I guess he says that Alex won't ever let him around Aaden or Leah once she's born, so why try."
"That man will regret walking away. Yeah I'm giving Aaden to Alex but I'm in a different boat. Randy has money coming out of his ass, I'm sure if he wasn't fucking somebody else by now and didn't want to break the news to her that he's a dad, that he would be here."
Randy stared at the picture of his son on his cell phone. Thanks to John and the technology, he had a picture of his son. He was sitting on his couch feeling sorry for himself. He knew he probably would regret walking away from his blood. He didn't want to put them through what he had went through as a kid. He only saw his dad one or two days of the week.
Randy didn't have a normal lifestyle. If he went anywhere with his dad, he couldn't have a normal talk with him without fans coming up to his dad. It happened all the time. So he was giving them a normal life. Away from the crazy fans, away from everything Randy was put into.
And before he knew it, he was crying. He should be in there, praying his son would be okay. Not looking at him through some stupid cell phone screen. He snapped his phone shut and shoved it in his pockets, not caring if he ruined his phone. It could be replaced. But his relationship with Alex, and his son's life couldn't.
He understood where Alex was going with him not being there for his son and his daughter, when she would be born, but he wouldn't let some other man raise them. When he was home, he wanted to wake up at the crack of dawn to take care of his kids. He wanted them to call him "dada" when they could first talk. He wanted to be there like a father should be.
He wiped away the tears and slipped on his Rams hoodie and slipped out the door. He was going to fix everything he had ruined even if it took all night long.
Alex sat down in one of the chairs in the nursery, waiting for them to hand Aaden over to her. They said he was big enough where he could be held. She smiled over at John. Maddie was sleeping again. She was sore from the c-section and was scared that if she had saw him while she was still in the hospital, she would back out of giving him to Alex.
He was wrapped up in a green blanket with a blue hat on. His hands were curled up into a fist, and he has the most beautiful little blue eyes. I wish Randy was here to see him, Alex thought to herself. They placed him in her arms and he yawned while stretching one arm over his head.
"Just like Randy." John said, peeking over her shoulder to look over at him.
"I was just thinking the same thing."
"So why did you pick Jonathan for his middle name?"
"I think it's cute together. Randy's names don't match well with Aaden."
"There's another reason Alex, spill it."
She looked around the room to see that most of the nurses were dealing with other babies. "You'll probably the only father figure in his life, although you'll probably be Uncle Johnny."
"You know if anything happens to the little man, I would be here in a heartbeat. Vince can fire me for not showing up."
"Like he would really fire one of his hottest men out there."
John laughed. "True, but you know what I'm talking about."
John locked eyes with Aaden and smiled down on him. Aaden made a little face at John before he started to cry.
"Look what you did John." Alex stuck her tongue out at John as she tried to calm him but nothing was working.
"Let me try." John said as Alex questioned him. "Your all bundled up, He might want to feel that human contact or whatever it's called."
Alex noticed that she did have on a hoodie while John had on a short sleve shirt. She got up from the chair and let John sit down before handing him over.
He got quiet and he smiled over at Alex. "Told ya."
The door to opened and Alex looked up and saw Randy. Her heart skipped a beat and she got teary eyed. She looked away. Did god just answer my wish? Is he really here or is this just a dream?
He walked closer to her and looked over at John. "Can I talk to you somewhere else, Alex?" He put his hand out for her to take. She took it and felt the spark. Her legs began to shake and it's a good thing that Randy had a hold of her because she would have fell over.
He led her to the cafeteria area and they sat down at the table, side by side.
"What are you doing here?" She looked up at him, her eyes full of hope that he had atleast changed his mind about being there for his son at the moment.
He stared into her eyes and knew that everything would be okay as long as he kept his hopes high. "I changed my mind. I can't even look myself in the mirror withouth knowing I'm fucking up."
"What do you mean?" She let a few tears slip as she stared at the table now.
"Don't cry, please?" He grabbed her hand and she slowly looked up at him. "I love you Alex. I know you probably hate me for everything I've done wrong. Hell, I hate myself for it all. But I can't walk out of your life or our kids lives. I want to be the one that they call "dada" when they first start talking. I want to be there for them Alex. I know right now my storylines and me being champ is making me busy but they can cut it down."
Every word that man said was the truth. Alex knew it and she couldn't deny it. "I was hoping you would change your mind. Part of me would always hold onto you and I would probably wait until the day you came back to get with another man. I love you Randy, but do you really want this?"
"I do. I really do."
"I don't want to jump into anything because were doing this for the kids right now. But to be honest with you, I don't want to see you or hear about you being with any other woman. It would be to confusing for the kids as they grew up to see mommy single and daddy with a new woman every time they see him."
He slowly looked down at her and smiled. "Don't worry, I haven't been with any woman since you left."
She smirked up at him before pulling him into a long, passionate kiss. "Don't be expecting anymore. But after the long months, we both needed that."
"Lets go see Maddie and our son." They got up and hugged before walking back to Maddie's room.
Kay, sorry this chapter is short. And no, the story isn't like going to end in a couple of chapters now that it all seems to be happy. And I'm an aunt again! I actually just now realized that this actually happened to my sister. She had my nephew almost three months early. She was due in early April. And Maddie went into labor early. And yes, I had that written before she had the baby. Weird, eh?
