The News
A.N. I'm going to update to kind of lift my mood, but I don't think this will do anything. My prayers and thoughts go out to the victims and the families of the Boston Bombings. May the perpetrators be brought to justice as soon as they are found.
It had been about a week since the night AJ and Dean had been in bed together and she was already not feeling well. She was feeling sick by now just after she woke up, luckily Dean hadn't been there; he had been pulled away by Seth and Roman earlier that morning. Kaitlyn, however, had stopped by with the test, thinking that by now AJ would need it.
AJ was leaning over the toilet, vomiting more than she thought she could handle. Her stomach was in so much unbearable pain and she was letting out everything she had had from the day before and the little bit of food she had before the sickness occurred.
Kaitlyn barged into the bathroom and saw AJ. She went over to her best friend, held AJ's hair back and rubbed her back. When AJ was finally finished emptying her stomach of its contents, she flushed the toilet, rinsed her mouth out and brushed her teeth. Kaitlyn held out a small box to the tiny diva.
"I think it's time to use this." AJ nodded and read the box instructions before pulling out the test and using it. The test said to wait for three minutes; it was the longest three minutes of AJ's life. Kaitlyn sat on the tiled floor beside AJ and grabbed her friend's hand for support. AJ heaved out a heavy sigh after a long wait.
"I think it's time, April." Kaitlyn said and AJ swallowed as she picked up the test which had been placed in front of her.
"It has a plus sign, its positive; I'm pregnant." AJ shed a tear but quickly wiped it away.
"Are you going to tell Dean today?"
"I don't really have a choice; he'll get suspicious when I am vomiting every morning, getting mood swings and strange cravings." AJ said as she stood up and made her way to the door back into the hotel bedroom. She was holding the test behind her leg up the sleeve of her jacket. She found Dean outside the door smiling.
"Hey, beautiful." He kissed her softly and then turned his attention to Kaitlyn who was still sitting cross-legged on the floor.
"I just came by to see April; she said she wasn't feeling well." Dean looked down at AJ and held his grip tighter on her waist.
"I'm feeling better, honey, relax; I think I may have just had some bad food or something." AJ smiled and Dean rubbed her back gently. He was still concerned when he saw Kaitlyn narrow her eyes at the back of AJ's head.
"I should go, I hope you feel better about everything, AJ, everything." Kaitlyn said as she stood up and walked out of the bathroom and hotel room. Dean looked down at AJ.
"What did she mean by that, April?" AJ sighed and made her way over to the Queen sized bed. She laid her head on the pillow as Dean pulled her legs on to his lap. AJ wasn't ready for telling him but knew she'd have to at some; getting it over with would be better.
"I have something to tell you; and it's really big." Dean moved so he was lying on his side next to AJ.
"I want you to tell me, please?" He asked and rubbed AJ's cheek with his thumb. AJ let a tear roll down her other cheek where Dean couldn't feel it.
"I don't know how to say this. I-I'm pregnant." AJ didn't even look at Dean, she couldn't bring herself to. She felt Dean kiss her cheek, lay his face against hers and wrap his arm around her waist tightly.
"Really?" He turned AJ over on her back, bringing his hand to her cheek to move her face towards his. He kissed her gently.
"So, when Kaitlyn was here…?" AJ nodded and AJ pulled the positive test from her jacket sleeve.
"It's a positive result, see the plus?" Dean nodded and put the test on the bedside table.
"You're okay with… this?" She put her hand to her stomach even though there wasn't any bump there yet.
"Yeah, but this means you can't wrestle anymore for a while. We have to tell Vince about you so you can get leave." AJ nodded and put her head into Dean's chest. She began to cry uncontrollably.
"Honey, don't cry; you know I won't leave." Dean said and AJ kissed his shirt covered chest before sobbing herself to sleep. She had exhausted herself with worrying but Dean didn't complain, he thought that she would have been upset anyway.
