Paige smiled as she picked up the sleeping little girl, and walked over to the bed, putting her on it. She tucked her in, then kissed her forehead. "Night Kenzie." She told her, then walked over to the small table, checking both of the phones.
She had been texting Jeff all night, and they had currently lost Jeannie. The last time they saw her, she was standing with John and Dave sharing old memories. And now, Jeff had lost all three of them, and that had scared Paige a little bit. She had to admit she was a little excited to leave a message for her mother. She knew that her mother would be extremely happy about it.
Paige was brought out of her thoughts when her cell phone started ringing. She quickly went to grab it, but stopped. She looked to see what phone it was, and noticed it was her old cell phone. Paige bit her lip. She was confused, and not sure if she should answer it or not. What if it was Jeff? What if it was someone else? Paige took a deep breath as she picked up the phone and pressed the answer button. "Hello?" She asked, hesitantly.
Jeannie froze as she heard the sound of her daughters voice coming from the phone. She looked at John and Dave who were as just as shocked as her. John then made a motion, telling Jeannie to speak, but Jeannie shook her head, she couldn't get the words out of her mouth. "Hello? Anyone there?" Came from the phone.
John and Dave exchanged looks. "Paigey?" John asked. He could hear the gasp come from the other line. "Please.. Don't hang up. Talk to me." John pleaded.
"I'm sorry.. You have the wrong number." Paige muttered, trying to change the sound of her voice.
"Paige! Will you grow up?" Dave Batista ordered.
Paige went silent for a minute. "What do you want?" She practically growled.
Dave looked at Jeannie. "Talk to her." He mouthed.
"Paige? Baby girl?" was the only thing Jeannie was able to come out with.
Paige froze at the sound of Jeannie's voice. She hadn't heard it in so long, and missed it. "Mum?" Paige paused, "Happy Birthday."
Jeannie grinned at the two boys. "Thanks Hun. How are you? Is everything good? Are you good? Are you taking care of yourself? Where are you?" Jeannie asked her.
Paige smiled, "I'm doing good. And yes, I'm taking care of myself." She responded, not wanting to answer the last question.
"Paige. Answer her. Where are you? Come back." John begged.
Paige quickly frowned, "Look, I love you guys. But I just can't.. tell you. Alright? I can't do this."
Jeannie frowned and looked at John and Dave. She then glanced to the door as Jade, her other daughter, popped her head in, "Mom, Dad's here."
John immediately grinned, and turned to Jade, "Tell him to come here, Quickly!" He mouthed to her. Jade nodded, and ran out of the room.
Paige sat on the couch, her phone still to her ear. She wanted to very badly to hang up, but she just couldn't find the strength to.
"Paige.. Why are you doing this to us?" Jeannie asked her, and Paige sighed.
"Mum.. I'm not trying to hurt you! I.. you.. you won't understand." She stated, but heard someone scoff.
"That's a load of crap. You probably don't even understand yourself. " Dave spat. "But of course, Little miss Paige has to run away from everything. What happened to facing your fears, huh?" He asked her.
Paige narrowed her eyes, "You know what Dave? Shut up! I'm doing what's best for us? Okay!" She yelled, but then quickly froze. She had said us. Meaning her and Kenzie. She cursed, hoping that they didn't catch it, but of course, it never went how she wanted.
"Us? Who the hell is us?' John pushed, "Is that what happened? Did you run off with someone?" John questioned, his voice sharp.
"John Calm down." Jeannie told him, but Paige just laughed.
"That's what you think? I left all you guys to run off with some guy? Thanks for the confidence Johnny." She remarked.
John rolled his eyes, "I'm sorry. I wasn't aware that I was supposed to have confidence in you after you ran away from us." He snapped.
Paige frowned, "You make it sound so much worse then it really was." she said quietly.
"No Paige. That's exactly how it seems to us." Dave told her.

Jeff sighed as he leaned against a wall. He had been looking for Jeannie everywhere and couldn't seem to find her.
"Jeff! Oh my god, Jeff!" Ashley yelled while running over to him.
Jeff laughed, "Ash, Calm down. What's up?"
Ashley grinned as she jumped up and down, "They got a hold of Paige! Jeannie, Dave and John are talking to her now!" Ashley exclaimed.
Jeff's smile fell ,"Are you serious?" He asked her, then quickly ran off looking for Steph and Hunter. Finally, Jeff found Steph and ran after to her. "Please tell me you've heard..." Jeff pleaded.
Steph nodded, "They just got her dad to go up there. You need to go back to the hotel, and get her out of here right away." She told him.
Jeff nodded, "I know.. But how? I got a ride here with Matt and Shan." Jeff told her.
"Here. Take the keys to our car. We'll just say that Lexi needed you." Hunter told Jeff, as he walked up to them, he then turned to Steph.
"You talk to your dad. I don't care what you tell him, but Lexi, needs to take some time off." He told her. Jeff sighed, as he grabbed the keys. "Tell Jeannie I said Happy birthday." He told Steph, as he then ran out the door.
Steph nodded at him, then turned to her husband. "Do you think she'll finally come back.. As Paige?" She asked him.
Hunter shook his head, "No.. Steph. I really don't."

Jeannie grinned as Paige's dad came into the room. "Hey Jean, What's so important?" He asked her.
"Do me a favour, answer this phone." She told him.
He looked at her weird as he picked up the phone. "Hello, Steve Austin here.."
Paige froze as she heard the voice, and the name. "Daddy.." She said, quietly. Paige covered her mouth with her other hand in shocker. She blinked back the tears as there was silence on the other line.
Steve looked at Jeannie, John, and Dave shocked, "Is this some sort of sick joke?" He asked them.
John quickly shook his head, "No.. it's her." He assured him.
Steve looked at the phone, then put it back to his ear. "Paige Alexa Williams!" Steven said loudly, making everyone, including Paige go quiet. "Where the hell are you? And why aren't you home?" He asked her, his voice quieter.
Paige took a deep breath. "I miss you to, Daddy." She told him, while smiling.
Her dad couldn't help but smile. "Are you ready to come home yet?" He asked her, and Paige was silent for a minute.
"I'm sorry Dad." She quietly muttered to him.
Steve sighed, "I know Paige. I know."
Paige closed her eyes, "I.. I have to go." she told them, not being able hold the tears any longer. She heard multiple sighs from the other end of the phone.
"Momma? Why are you crying?" Kenzie asked Paige.
Paige froze as she heard Kenzie, then quickly turned towards her. "Go back to sleep baby." Paige told her, covering the speaker part of the phone.
"Paige? Who was that? Did I just hear a little girl?" Jeannie asked her, confused.
"Momma! Don't be sad!" Kenzie said louder. Paige panicked and hung up the phone, hoping that they didn't catch on.
Jeannie dropped the phone as Paige hung up, and quickly turned towards the others, "Please tell me that I was hearing things!" She asked them, in shock.
"Not unless we're both hearing things.." Dave told her.
John shook his head, "She never told me anything about being pregnant.. And she would have told me. John stated, a little unsure.
Jeannie looked up at her ex husband, "Steve? Are you okay?" She asked him.
Steve nodded, "Yeah.. Just shocked." He looked at John. "You sure no one said anything about it?" He asked him, and John shook his head.
"Hey guys! Am I to late?" Trish asked as she ran into the room.
Dave nodded, "Yeah, She ended up hanging up after we heard a little girl in the background." He told her, then continued to explain the rest of the conversation to her.
Trish frowned. "That can't be right.. I mean.." She paused then looked at everyone, "She was pregnant.."
Jeannie, Dave, John and Steve went quiet, and turned to Trish, shocked. "Are you serious? Why didn't anyone tell us?" Jeannie snapped.
Trish frowned, "She told us she miscarried and lost the baby.." She explained to them.
John looked at Trish, "Us? Who's us?"
Trish paused for a minute, "Me, Jeff, and Amy." She said, while sighing, "And we believed her."
Dave shook his head, "But would Paige actually lie about something like that and keep the baby from Randy?" He asked them, just as confused as everyone else.

Paige grabbed Kenzie as she let the phone dropped and hugged her. "Don't worry baby, I'm alright." She told her, trying to make it sound believable. Paige quickly jumped up as she heard some angrily banging at the door. She ran over to it, looking through the peep hole and opening it as she saw Jeff.
She quickly threw herself into his arms as he came inside, and shut the door behind him. Jeff wrapped his arms around Paige, "It'll be alright. I booked flights for us already, and we're getting out of here." He told her. "I'm taking you back to Emily and Lissa."
Paige pulled away from the hug, and looked at Jeff. She wanted to argue, and knew for a fact that Jeff expected her to argue the point, but instead, she nodded. She knew going back to them was the safest thing that she could probably do. She then looked at Jeff with a confused face, "What about the contract? I'm supposed to stay for a couple years."
Jeff sighed, "Steph and Hunter will take care of it. If anything, You'll have to tell him. Technically, Alexa Riley doesn't exist." He explained, 'Now start packing. We have an hour then we need to leave in order to catch the flight." He then picked up Kenzie as she ran over to him, 'Hey baby girl." He said, as he tickled her, smiling.
I know I know, Its mostly likely extremely rushed.
