Finally finished this chapter! I couldn't find a point of where I wanted to end things so sorry if it sounds like it ended abruptly. Remember I do love reviews
Paige and Lana walked out of the trainer's room not saying a word to each other. Paige was trying to hold back tears as she could feel her hands shaking in fear. She had to tell Dean which was something she was more afraid of than ever. The two of them had only been in an actual relationship for 4 weeks and she was already pregnant with his child. She slowly walked through the hall before hearing a voice behind her.
"Paige! Hey!" she heard before turning around seeing Seth running up to her with Roman following.
"Hey guys" she said with a deep breath trying to hide the fact that she had tears in her eyes.
"Is everything okay? Dean wanted us to check on you. He said you hadn't answered in awhile" Seth said as Paige nodded still trying to hide the tears.
"Yeah, I just was sick and went to see the trainer. I think I forgot my phone in my bag" she said as Roman looked at her strangely.
"Are you feeling okay?" Seth asked as Paige looked down biting her lip trying not to look either of them in the eye.
"Yeah it's just a stomach bug" Paige said shrugging it off as Seth looked relieved
"Well go tell your lunatic that, he's worried" Seth said turning around to leave as Roman leaned in whispering in her ear.
"If you need to talk, you know where our locker room is" he whispered before following Seth back to the locker rooms. Paige walked into the locker room where all of the divas were standing around getting ready.
"Are you okay Paige?" Bayley asked as Paige nodded with a broken smile as Lana touched her shoulder softly.
"Yeah I'm not feeling great, I'm gonna try to get some rest" She said grabbing her phone and instantly seeing the picture of her and Dean that was her lock screen. She felt tears start to roll down her cheeks before sending Dean a text.
"Sorry darling, I'm not feeling the greatest. I have a stomach bug according to the trainers. They want to keep me out of the ring since I'm puking and all of that" She texted before locking her phone again.
Once Raw started, Paige walked down the hall in the areas where she knew there was not any filming going on and went into Roman's locker room where he and Seth were sitting.
"Paige hey" Roman said as Seth looked up at her seeing how red her eyes were.
"What's wrong? Have you been crying?" Seth asked as Paige nodded before taking a deep breath.
"I need advice... " she said her voice shaking some as she felt the tears filling her eyes again.
"What up?" Roman said instantly as Seth nodded listening intently to what Paige had to say.
"You know how Dean and I are together?" She started out with knowing the only way she could say this is if she built up to it.
"Of course, that's all he ever talks about" Seth said before Roman could even get anything out.
"Well… the stomach bug I was telling you guys about… I...I" Paige started as Seth's face turned into shock and Roman's followed shortly after.
"I'm pregnant…. I just found out and I think he's gonna…. He's gonna leave" Paige said as she burst into tears sitting on the chair. They all sat in silence as Roman was the first to speak up.
"Did he say he was going to leave you?" Roman asked as Paige looked up shaking her head.
"I haven't told him yet but he can't possibly want this" She said as Roman's eyes softened.
"Paige you don't know that, you need to tell him and let him decide before you decide for him. He's probably not going to be overjoyed but are you?" Roman said rationally as Paige shook her head.
"This was a huge mistake, I'm not overjoyed but I'm keeping it. I'm going to try to do this" She said finally admitting that she was going to be a parent to this child.
"I think Dean will be okay… I think he'll be more worried about you and the baby Paige" Seth said knowing that Dean would never leave Paige because of this. It would take a lot of adjusting but they would be able to make it work.
"Exactly, it wasn't just you who did this Paige, you and Dean did this together and he knows that. He will be okay if you tell him and soon. This is his child, it's Baby Ambrose" Roman said as Paige instantly smiled to herself through the tears. Baby Ambrose was inside of her, a little bit of her and Dean was growing inside of her.
"You need to tell him in person too" Seth chimed in as Paige nodded taking a deep breath to collect herself.
"You are right, I need to tell him when I see him next" She said as Roman looked over at Seth and then back at Paige.
"We are actually driving up to Smackdown if you want to come with us" Roman offered as Paige just nodded
"I would love to if it's okay with you guys" She said as Roman got up to hug her tightly.
"It's gonna be okay, just remember you have Dean and everyone on your side. You and Baby Ambrose will be just fine" Roman said as Seth stood up pulling Paige into a tight hug.
"Congratulations Mama" Seth said as Paige took another deep breath wiping what was left of the stray tears from her eyes.
"This is the weirdest feeling in the world" she said laughing softly as Roman grinned.
"Just wait until the kid is here" He joked as Paige elbowed him playfully. She left the room feeling happier than when she walked in. The guys were right, She and the baby would be just fine & she needed to tell Dean that way he would react. She was walking in the hall when she saw Stephanie by her office.
"Paige can I talk to you in my office?" She said as Paige stopped suddenly in her tracks. She was so worried about Dean that she totally didn't think about what the company would do. They wouldn't fire her because she's pregnant but storylines needed to be changed obviously. Paige walked into Stephanie's office with a deep breath. Once the door was shut, Stephanie walked over hugging Paige tightly.
"The trainers let me know the news, congratulations" Stephanie said sitting on the edge of her desk as Paige sat down.
"Thank you, I'm still trying to take it all in right now. This was totally not planned at all" Paige said as Stephanie grinned.
"Well sometimes you can't plan these things, they just happen when the time seems totally wrong" she said the smile not once leaving her face.
"Does Dean know yet?" Stephanie added as Paige shook her head
"No, not yet. I'm going to ride up to Smackdown with Roman and Seth tomorrow to tell him. I hope that's okay" Paige said not knowing where the conversation would be going from here. She was more worried that it wouldn't be okay if she went to see Dean.
"Of course it's fine, especially since you are on our staff and the mother of his child" Stephanie said as Paige gave her a smile.
"So you are on maternity leave from here on out. Once you tell Dean, we can decide how we can play your absence in the story line. Once the baby is born, we can have you start training at the performance center and then we can decide what your schedule will be at that time" Stephanie explained as Paige nodded taking all of the information in.
"It is possible that we could have you as an announcer or as a co-host to Talking Smack or a pre-show. We will see what we can work out and go from there" Stephanie added as Paige looked down at her hands.
"Stephanie, I'm sorry if I messed up any plans. This really was not planned at all" Paige said quietly as Stephanie smiled softly.
"Paige, it's going to be just fine, now get some rest then I'll get back to you on what we'll do" Stephanie said as she hugged Paige.
Paige stayed through the rest of Raw knowing that Roman and Seth would be leaving for Smackdown once Raw was over. Once it ended, she grabbed her bags, said bye to everyone and walked down to Roman's locker room where the guys already had their stuff together.
"Ready to go?" Seth asked with a smile as Paige nodded keeping her bags close but Roman shook his head.
"Let us help you" He said as they each took one of her bags and they started talking towards the SUV. Once they got in and started driving, Paige pulled out her phone with a smile looking at the picture of Dean and herself before seeing a text from him come through.
"Are you feeling any better? I can try to stop by your hotel tonight to check on you" he texted as Paige smiled knowing she was on her way to him.
"It's fine Dean, I'm going to get some rest soon anyway. Let me know when you get to your hotel" she texted him back as Seth laughed.
"He just asked us to check on you, should we ruin the surprise?" he asked as Roman laughed shaking his head.
"I was thinking I just climb into bed with him and see what he says" Paige said as Roman laughed.
"Make sure you don't scare him" he joked as Paige's phone vibrated in her hand.
"I'm gonna have Roman or Seth check on you, I'm worried about you baby doll" he texted back as Paige grinned down at her phone
"He said to check on me" she said smirking before looking back down at her phone and texting Dean
"I love that you are worried about me, we'll see each other again soon and I'll feel better by then" she texted before feeling her stomach start to turn again.
"Roman... pull over" she said between breaths as Roman's eyes widened and he pulled off the road. The second the car was at a stop, Paige opened the door and stumbled out before starting to throw up. Seth rushed over from the passenger side of the car, holding Paige's hair back as Roman grabbed napkins and a bottle of water that they had gotten before they left.
"It's okay Paige, it's okay" Roman said calmly as she stopped throwing up and Seth helped her hand up straight once again. She took the water, sipping it slowly as she wiped her lips.
"Sorry guys, morning sickness… well all day sickness" Paige said with a deep breath as Roman smiled over at her.
"It's cool, Galina's was pretty bad when she was pregnant with Joelle" Roman said as Seth smiled over at her making sure she was okay before he helped her back into the back of the car.
They made it to the hotel for Smackdown and Paige hugged them each thanking them for getting her there. Seth gave her Dean's room number and she made her way up to his room knocking softly as she took a deep breath. The door opened slowly as Dean saw her and his eyes went wide.
"Baby doll! What are you doing here?!" he said excitedly opening the door wider as he pulled her into a hug before kissing her deeply.
"I wanted to come see you, I missed you" she said as Dean brought her bags into the room and smiled at her before kissing her again.
"I missed you too" He said softly in her ear as pulled back softly and held on to his hand.
"I need to tell you something…." She said sitting back on the bed and Dean looked at her strangely.
"What's going on?" He said sitting next to her as Paige took a deep breath and looked over at him.
"I went to the trainer today… you know I'm not feeling well" Paige started taking another deep breath.
"Oh you did?" Dean said as he could see the nervousness in Paige's eyes and the fact that her hands were shaking.
"Paige, what's wrong?" Dean added starting to think something was very wrong with his girlfriend.
"Well… I… I'm pregnant. I took two tests and they were positive" She said feeling the tears reaching her eyes again. Dean sat there in shock feeling his own breathing start to get shallow. It took him a few moments to think everything over before he leaned over kissing Paige gently
"It's okay baby, don't cry" He said lowly as he pulled Paige into his arms as she started to cry.
"Are you mad?" Paige asked between tears as Dean shook his head with a soft smile.
"Baby I'm not mad, shocked but not mad at all" He said as Paige looked up at him and Dean carefully wiped her tears as Paige cuddled close to him.
"Baby Doll, we are going to have a baby" Dean said this time with more happiness in his voice as Paige kissed his cheek.
"You know Roman… he actually called it Baby Ambrose earlier" Paige said as Dean smiled at the thought.
"Did Stephanie…. Was she angry?" Dean asked as Paige shook her head holding on to Dean still.
"She was actually okay with it. They are trying to figure out what to do with the storylines and everything but I'm officially on maternity leave" Paige said as Dean moved his hands to her flat stomach. He couldn't help but smile as he listened to Paige knowing that his child was in there.
"I love you" Dean whispered into her ear as Paige looked up at him with a smile. She put her hand on top of Dean's and kissed him.
"I love you too" she whispered before she and Dean decided it was time to get ready for bed.
The next morning, Dean woke up looking at Paige who was laying in his arms. He hadn't moved his hand from her flat stomach all night. Paige had slept all night but Dean stayed up part of the night thinking about the future. He wanted Paige to move in, to give the baby a real home with two parents who loved him or her, something he really didn't have. His whole life he knew that his mom loved him and his sister but his dad he knew really didn't. Dean knew he didn't have the best example as a father but he wanted to be the best father he could to this baby. He leaned down kissing Paige's cheek as she started to stir.
"It's okay baby, get some rest" He whispered as Paige groaned shaking her head and cuddling close.
"I'm nauseous" she whispered as Dean started rubbing her stomach hoping in some way it would help her.
"If you need to get up, let me know" he said quietly making sure that she would be comfortable. They stayed like that for a few minutes before Paige sat up quickly and started running into the bathroom. Dean followed her into the hotel bathroom tying her hair back and wetting a cool washcloth putting it on her neck. He hated to see her like this but knew that morning sickness was completely normal. He waited for her to stop before helping her up slowly and getting another cool washcloth for her head.
"Thank you" Paige said quietly as he rubbed her back gently and she cleaned herself up. Dean moved out of the bathroom to give her space once he knew that she was alright. The two of them got ready for the day before Paige's phone went off. She walked over grabbing the phone seeing a text from Stephanie.
"Hey, the trainers would like you to get checked to make sure everything is okay with the baby. I know you had a couple of matches and we really don't know how far along you are" the text said as Stephanie gave her the information to get an ultrasound done.
"Darling, the trainers want me to get an ultrasound done to see if the baby is okay. When do you want to go?" Paige said as she put her leggings on and Dean looked over buttoning his jeans.
"We can go before Smackdown, you know I want to be there" Dean said smiling over before walking over to kiss her. They finished getting ready and made their way to Dean's rental car.
They made their way to the imaging place as Dean held her hand the entire time. He could tell Paige was nervous about the whole thing just by her fidgeting in the chair.
"It's going to be okay beautiful" he whispered as they called Paige's name and they walked into the back.
Once in the room, Paige changed into a paper gown and Dean watched her the whole time.
"You make that paper gown look sexy beautiful" he said as Paige playfully posed before getting back on the table and putting her feet into the stirrups. Dean smiled over at her as he held his hand. The ultrasound tech walked in the room and she smiled at the two of them
"Hello you two, now I understand we are doing an ultrasound to check on the little baby" she said as she looked down at the file entering the information into the computer as she turned the machine on and flipped the lights off.
"Is this the first ultrasound you are having?" she asked as Paige nodded squeezing Dean's hand.
"Yes, we actually just found out that we are pregnant" Paige said as the tech started the ultrasound as Paige squirmed a bit.
"It's uncomfortable I know" the tech said as Dean kept Paige's hand in his but his eyes never left the screen.
"Alright, I have found the little one" the tech said using her free hand to press some buttons and taking a picture of the small blob on the screen.
"All I'm seeing is one, so it's not twins. You look to be about 6 weeks pregnant" the tech said as Paige smiled over at Dean kissing him gently.
"Do you see the flickering right there? That is the baby's heartbeat. It looks very strong" The tech said as she took another picture and pressing another button as a loud thumping filled the room.
"The heartbeat is so fast" Dean said as the tech smiled looking back at the screen taking a couple more measurements.
"The baby's heartbeat is at 123 beats per minute which is totally normal for 6 weeks along" the tech said as Paige started to tear up looking over at Dean.
"I can't believe this is real" she whispered as Dean kissed her head. They finished the ultrasound and gave Paige the pictures of the blob that would be their baby.
