Chapter Nine: Confessions
Falon's POV
I am starting to give up on this whole trip, nothing is going as planned. Bailey is out looking for John, for me. Because I am so tired, I feel like I have no energy. Grams says its just part of being pregnant, and the stress I am going through isn't helping much. It's been two weeks since the first time I seen him. We have managed to follow his lead on where he was going to be and what time he was going to be there. I had him in my reach a few times, but the fans managed to over crowd him and he left. Bailey has been insisting on staying at certain hotels, but every one of them except for this one was booked. It's strange that she knows where John is at every second of the day. It is kind of creepy, but hopefully we will eventually run into him.
John's POV
Bailey has been meeting up with me everyday. Still no sight of Falon, I hope she can talk her into coming today. I really want to see her. I am just about ready to say fuck it and go to her hotel room. But Bailey insists we play it like this, however this is not working either. I have an idea if she doesn't come with her friend today. I was looking around at my surroundings until someone smacked my arm. I turned around to see Bailey looking at me with a, "what you gonna do?" look.
"Better be careful hitting people that are bigger than you. You might get hurt the next time."
She shook her head. "No I won't, I can handle myself."
I rolled my eyes. She appeared to be a tough girl, but I had never actually seen if she could hold her own. "She bailed again, didn't she?" I said as I looked around.
"Yes. I am sorry, I really tried, but she won't come."
"I have an idea."
"Okay big guy. Let's hear it!"
"Go back upstairs and bust into the room, then tell her you spotted me down here."
"That might work. I will try."
"I will be waiting here in the bar."
I watched as she walked away, hoping this goes as well as it did in my mind. I went and took a seat then waited as patiently as I could.
Falon's POV
Just as I hung up my cell, from having a conversation with my dad, Bailey barged in and scared the crap out of me. "What are you doing? You fucking scared me." I watched her grab my shoes and put them next to me on the bed. "Where are we going?"
"I seen John downstairs, if you hurry we can catch him. He was in the bar when I left to come get you."
I sighed. "He probably won't be there when I get down there, just like the last few times I rushed to see him." I am in complete doubt that this will work out for me.
"Get your ass up and let's go, right now!" She demanded.
"Fine." I scoffed as I put my shoes on.
We went downstairs and walked into the bar area. To my suprise he was sitting off by himself. My chance had finally come, the only thing to do now is confess that he is going to be a father. "B, I don't think I can do this."
"What the hell, Falon. He is right there, in reaching distance. No one is around, you might not have the chance to do this again. Get over there and talk to him!" She pushed me a little not hurting me, just enough to get me walking in his direction. I looked down to the floor and watched my feet take a step, one after another.
"Okay, okay." I looked up and noticed he wasn't sitting there anymore. "B, he is gone. See I told you." I turned around and our eyes locked. I didn't know when or if that was going to happen again, so I just stared at him. "Falon?" He said as his smile made me have butterflies in my stomach. "I am sorry for not returning your call. You must think I am a jackass."
"Actually I don't. I just thought you didn't want to talk to me anymore, or had better things to do."
He smiled then took my hand in his and led me over to the table he was at just moments ago. He pulled two chairs close to each other and we sat down. "Your number was deleted. I am truly sorry." He kissed my hands. "As for not wanting to talk to you anymore, that's never gonna happen, you mean to much to me."
I felt my eyes welling up, I wiped them before the tears broke loose. "Really?" Damn hormones!
He leaned in closer to me. "Absolutely. Now, what was you needing to talk to me about?"
"How did you know I needed to talk to you?" I asked curious to know.
He laughed. "You left a message for me to return your call, something about it being important that you talk with me as soon as possible."
I laughed, I was still processing that I meant something to him, I wasn't thinking clearly. "Oh right. Yeah, it is very important..." I started to hesitate.
"What is it?" I began to panic, my body was shaking in fits, and tears fell from my eyes. "Falon, are you okay?" He asked with worry on his face.
"I can't breath." I barely got it out in a whisper. He pulled me into him and began rubbing my back.
"Darlin, calm down. Just take deep breaths. Your okay!" He assured me.
I raised my head from his shoulder. "John... I'm pregnant." I had to blurt it out. It was the only way I was going to be able to tell him.
"Are you sure?" He asked with curious eyes.
I nodded as tears were flowing steadily down my cheeks. "I went to the doctor, and he gave me a test."
"I wore a condom." He looked to be confused.
I was feeling even more nervous now. "It broke."
He pulled me back into him and held me tight. "Okay, were going to get through this. I promise!"
I wrapped my arms around his neck, holding onto him. "I want to keep the baby, but you don't have to be apart of it, if you dont want to. You have the option to back out. I understand if it's too much for you!" I was serious, just because he is the father of my baby, doesn't mean he had to be apart of it. I was giving him a free pass, even though inside I was secretly hoping he would stick around.
John's POV
Is she serious? Some guys would probably run like a scared little bitch, but not me. I have never been the type to run from anything. Even though this isn't the first time I have been in this kind of situation. Considering who it is with, I have no complaints. I don't know much about her, but something is telling me I could do a hell of alot worse. "Darlin, what kind of guy do you take me for? We made a life together, there is no way I am going to turn you or our baby away. I am in this until my last breath."
A smile crept along her lips, causing her dimples to show. I didn't know she had dimples. They weren't as deep as mine. They were barely visible, unless you were observing her features, as I am at this moment.
Since we hooked up, I hadn't really been myself. But now that I see her face to face. I am me again. We talked for another twenty minutes then it was time for me to go to the arena. Falon and Bailey said they would hang out at the hotel until I got back. Before I left she took my cell from me. "Now you have my number stored, so you can call me back!" She cheesed. I gave her a quick hug, kissed her forehead, then she walked away.
Shortly after I arrived at the arena, we had the usual meeting. The second it was over I headed down the hall to get ready for my match tonight. I sat down in the locker room lost in my thoughts. I never thought of myself as the father type. I was the worst candidate for the roll. I had alot of growing up to do before this kid comes into the world. I need to make sure that my priorities are in order. I can't let Falon raise our baby on her own. The more I think about it, the more I smile. I am going to be a dad, never thought I would say those words before. I said it out loud to try it on. "I'm going to be a dad." I looked up to check the time, I was caught off guard by Randy walking by me, with a shocked expression.
"What did you say?" He asked as his body froze in place.
I took a deep breath then repeated myself. "I am going to be a dad."
Randy took a seat and slumped in his chair. "Damn, who is claiming that you knocked them up this time?" He asked with curious eyes.
I almost smiled. "Falon!"
Randy ran his hand over the top of his head, and let out a sigh. "What are you going to do?"
"Take responsibilty of the baby... our baby!"
"I don't know man... I think Falon is okay and all, but if it was me, I would get a test done, just to make sure. You only slept with her once and really don't know her that well." Of course Randy would tell a girl he wanted a paternity test done. But I don't feel like there is any need for one. We had sex, it was only one time, but that is all it takes. Not to mention I was her first, and she doesn't seem like the type of person to lie about something like this.
I shook my head. "I don't know her that well, but I am going to. Besides I have her number now." I showed him my phone and chuckled. "I feel like I can trust her, man."
Randy looked like he was worried. "Alright, if you are sure then congrats!"
I grinned. "Thanks, your the first person that I have told, so keep it quiet. I don't want everyone to know just yet. Gotta tell the family first." Damn, I am gonna get shit over this. My mom won't be that bad, but my dad and brothers are another story. No matter how I tell them it will still come off as a shock. Oh well, I made my bed, now I have to lay in it, whether I am ready or not.
I was really pumped when I hit the ramp. The fans were extra loud tonight, and I loved it. I was unbelievably happy, it almost seemed unreal. After the show, Randy was waiting on me at the rental car to give him a ride back to the hotel. He said he didn't feel upto going out with the guys tonight, and knew I was going back to my room as soon as the show was over.
As soon as we parked, Randy jumped out of the car and walked faster than normal toward the entrance of the building. I grabbed my bag, locked the doors, and hurried to catch upto him. He had been acting strange ever since I told him Falon was pregnant. I was going to find out what was with him. "Randy... man hold the elevator." I seen his hand stop the door from closing. "Thanks. You okay, your acting like something is up?"
"I'm fine Cena, leave it alone!" Something is definitely up with him. He doesn't call me Cena to often.
I looked at him, he was turning red in the face, like he was thinking about something that was making him angrier by the minute. "Man, I don't know what is going on, but I am here if you need to talk. Your like a brother to me, I hate seeing you like this!"
He closed his eyes and put his head against the wall of the elevator. "Sam is pregnant!" He mumbled but just loud enough for me to hear.
"Your pissed cause your girl is pregnant?" I questioned.
He growled. "No, I am pissed cause she is pregnant by someone other than me." He stated and the elevator doors opened. He walked out and the doors closed again. Now I know why he was telling me to have a test done.
Falon's POV
I have been waiting for John to knock for awhile now. I wasn't for sure what time he would be getting here. I got bored and decided to take a hot bath to relax. I felt myself drifting off to sleep until I heard someone knock in a rythm on the door. That must be him, hopefully he will wait until I finish in the tub. I heard Bailey talking and a few minutes later the bathroom door opened. I popped my head up to see who it was. I blushed, he was standing there in the doorway with a smirk on his face looking me up and down. It had been two months since he had seen me without any clothes on, my heart pounded faster, just thinking about the last time I was in the nude with him.
John's POV
"Damn baby, you getting all wet for me?" She looked at me then turned her head as she blushed. I could tell she was embarassed, she covered herself up with her hands the best she could.
I heard Bailey laughing. "Shutup B... John, I am taking a bath. Do you mind closing the door?"
I smiled. "Not at all." I stepped in then closed it shut." She raised a brow at me. "What?"
She shook her head. "Nothing."
"Did you want me to stay out there until you finished?" She nodded. "Oops my bad. Well it's not the first time I have seen you like this, and I am sure it won't be the last." I moved my brows up and down excitedly.
"I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you then. Because it isn't gonna happen!" She grinned as she spoke.
Yeah right, I know better. She won't be able to resist me for long. Just from the way she looks at me, I know she wants it. I grabbed my chest for a dramatic effect. "Ouch, darlin that hurt."
She rolled her light blue orbs at me. "If your not going out, then could you grab that towel for me?" I looked around until I spotted the towel. It was neatly folded on the sink. I picked it up then in one swift movement gave it a shake, letting it unfold and held it open for her.
When she stepped out she reached for it but I shook my head. "Come on, I got you." She turned around and I wrapped it around her small frame. Instead of backing away, I put my arms over the towel and pulled her into me. I knew she wasn't expecting that when she nervously took a deep breath. Not thinking of anything but her, caused me to kiss her neck. "Don't you know how bad I want you right now?" I looked down to see her face. She closed her eyes and bit her lip.
Falon's POV
This man is gonna be the death of me. "John we can't. Bailey is in the other room, and to be honest it really isn't the right time!" I can't believe I am turning him down. I would like nothing more than to say, I want him too. But I don't know what we are, or if we are anything at all. I needed to clear some things up with him, before we gave ourselves to one another again. I needed to know if I could let the feelings go, or keep them hidden. "I think we should talk about things first."
He sighed then kissed my shoulder. "Okay." He let me go then smacked my ass. "Get dressed and we will go to my room so we can talk in private." I nodded, and smiled gently.
"I won't take long." As soon as he shut the door behind him, I finished drying off then put on my lotion. I grabbed my comfy black sweat pants, and white tank top, slipping them on with ease. After I put my socks on and then the matching jacket, I stepped out of the bathroom. I walked over to the bed and sat down. Since Bailey was out for the night, I knew she would be okay until I returned. I reached for my shoes and sat them next to me on the bed. I didn't really want to put them on. "Ugh".
He looked at me with a questioning look. "You okay?"
I nodded. "Yes, but I don't really want to put on my shoes!" I half laughed, cause I sounded like I was whining.
I seen his lips curve into a small smile. "Baby you don't have to wear your shoes, I am more than happy to carry you."
I cocked my head. "Are you sure, cause you will be carrying two!" He raised his brow then looked me up and down.
"Darlin, I bench more than you weigh, pregnant or not!" He swooped me up without breaking a sweat. One arm was around my waist and the other was under my knees. I have to admit I was going to enjoy this, probably more than I should. I loved when a guy could pick me up without shaking or struggling. He was definitely the biggest that had ever carried me. My ex complained that I was hurting his back from my weight. He even hinted I needed to lose a few pounds. I have gained around five pounds since I found out I am with child. Adding that in with what I normally weigh equals upto 125 pounds.
We made it to his room just moments later. He reached to get the key from his shorts pocket. "You can put me down if you need to."
He shook his head. "Hell no." Once he had readjusted his hold on me, he pulled the key card out and unlocked the door. He kicked the door shut behind him then proceeded to carry me to the bed. He gently laid me down and then took the vacant space next to me. I felt him wrap me up in his arms. I turned to face him.
His smile made me smile and I blushed a bit too! "Whatever your thinking, you can forget about it." I stated, knowing any thought he was having at that moment wasn't exactly gentleman like.
"Don't worry baby, your in good hands. I won't do anything unless you want me too!" He cheesed. "Now what do you want to talk about?"
I hesitated to think about what I was going to say. "Well... I need to know what we are exactly!" He gave me a gentle smile.
"I'm going to be straight with you, I don't date unless I get to know everything about someone. As of right now, I consider you a friend." It felt like a knife stabbed me in the heart with those words. Even though I undertood that is just how he is, I couldn't help feeling like a complete fool for even thinking this could have been something more. If friends was the only thing that came out of this, I am gonna take it. I can't stand the thought of not having him in my life at all.
John's POV
That look she has, is killing me. I care alot for her, no doubt about it. But I need time to make sure this is what's best for both of us. We need to get to know each other before we get together. She is young, and hasn't had as much experience as I have. I don't want either of us to get hurt. I know I probably hurt her with my words, cause I seen a little bit of hope in her eyes before I answered her question. "Don't take that in a bad way. I really do care for you." I placed her hand on my heart. "You have a special place right here, that is yours and yours alone."
She half smiled. "Okay, that's fair enough." We finished talking things through. We were going to remain friends for the time being. The rest of the conversation ended up being about the baby. She dozed off mumbling about something involving sleep and muscles. I was happy to be holding her in my arms again. I had a feeling she was going to be my best friend. After watching her sleep a bit longer, I gave in, calling it a night, and drifted off.
The next morning was priceless. I woke up to the warmth of her smile. I kissed her cheek then headed for the shower. I finished as fast as I could. I came out in a towel, and she blushed. Damn either she is really into me, or she is embarassed again, maybe even both. I don't know which, but I like seeing her turn red. "You coming with me to the next show, darlin?"
She shook her head no, and I pouted. "Don't do that. I'm sorry but I really need to get back." She stood up and hugged me, she pressed her lips against my jawline. "Muah." She smiled and placed her hands on each of my hips. "I need to find a job and get a place of my own. I have bills to pay and my bank account is starting to get low on funds."
"Aight, if you have to then I guess I will let you go."
Her eyes were full of surprise. "You guess you will let me go? I don't think so Johnny boy, no man will ever have that kind of control over me." She was getting cocky, which surprised me.
"Chill little bit, no need to get testy. I was just playin'. Don't be hatin'!" She laughed cause I tried to sound gangsta.
"Baby boy you have alot to learn about me." She cracked up laughing. We hugged and kissed each others cheek once more before she left to pack. We met at the airport and clinged onto one another before she had to board her flight. Bailey sat back laughing at Randy cause he was bitching at anyone that tried to talk to him. Moments later I was watching the two females walking away, Falon blew me a kiss, and I winked at her. I don't know when I will get to see her next, but I can't wait until she is in my arms again.
There's chapter 9, hope you liked it. There is still alot more in store for John and Falon. I have ideas, still trying to figure out where I want to put them into the story. Hopefully it comes together nicely, and I don't disappoint. As always r&r. Until next time, take it easy!
