CHAPTER 10: New insight

Over the next few weeks, Dean continued staying at Paige's house as his relationships between his former shield brothers and AJ continued deteriorating. It was now March 10th when Dean sat downstairs at the table eating his breakfast when Paige entered. "Good morning" he said. "Aren't you running late? It's already after 7:30 and you're appointment is at 9." "Well I'm sorry I had morning sickness" Paige said as she entered the kitchen to fix herself a plate of bacon, hash browns and a banana. "Weird combination you have there" Dean said as he cocked an eyebrow.

"Well I hate those shit smelling eggs you're shoving in your face right now" Paige bitterly said she took a seat. "There's no need to be harsh" said Dean. Paige ignored his words as she continued her meal. Dean was starting to slowly get used to her various moods as her pregnancy continued progressing. Glancing at the time on his phone, he again urged for Paige to finish up her plate, causing her to in return give him an icy glare.

"S-sorry" stammered as he excused himself from the table to sit the dishes in the sink. After another long and torturous 20 minutes, Paige emerged from the living room and into to the kitchen where she again took her time to rinse off her ditches until she heard the sound of Dean impatiently clearing his throat.

"If we don't leave now, we're going to be late" he said. "Please, let's go. I want to see the baby today and-"

"Is that the only reason why you're choosing to stay with me?" Paige asked. "Because of the baby?" Dean let out an annoyed sighed as he walked away. "Where are you going?" she called out. "To get your car keys so I can drive you to your doctor's appointment" said Dean. Paige rolled her eyes as she grabbed her jacket and followed Dean outside. "I can lock my own house" she said. "Believe me I don't need any of your help." "You know, just because you're pregnant, does not mean that you have to be such a bitch to me" said Dean. "I've been trying to help you all month and ever since your family left, you've been treating me like I am nothing and I am tired of it. Now I have nowhere else to go and I would appreciate it, really appreciate it if you would just stop your attitudes towards me, ok?"

"I'll meet you in the car" Paige said sarcastically as she walked to her car. Dean sighed as he quickly locked the door and followed behind her.

The drive to the clinic was long and silent. Dean was becoming increasingly tired of Paige's mood swings as she was becoming agitated by the sight of him. As the two sat waiting for her doctor to get them, Dean finally broke their silence. "I don't understand why in the world do you hate me so much?" he asked. "I mean I may not be the best person out here, but still I am human and I am entitled to make mistakes."

"I think like everyone else Jonathan, I've grown tired of your little "mistakes" you ca them" said Paige. "What you want from me is something that I cannot give you" said Dean. "And I'm sorry about that. Now that's up to you to decide on whether or not you take that." Paige remained quiet until her doctor approached them. "Hello Saraya, how's everything going with you lately?" she asked. "I'm great Dr. Ibanez" said Paige. "Well alright then, let's take a look" said Dr. Ibanez as she led the two into the examining room.

"So who have you brought with you today?" she asked. "This is Jonathan. He's the father" said Paige. "Well it's nice to finally meet you. I'm Dr. Georgina Ibanez" said Dr. Ibanez. "Likewise" said Dean. Paige got up onto the table where her doctor approached her and began to probe her stomach. "You're gaining weight I see" she said. "That's really good." "Yes the nurse said that I've gained another 4lbs since I've last seen you" said Paige. "Excellent" said Dr. Ibanez. "I've also heard that you've began feeling their first kicks."

"Yes doctor I did" said Paige. "The last time they've kicked was earlier this morning before I got up." "That's good" said Dr. Ibanez. "Are you two ready to see what they look like?" Paige nodded as Dean watched the doctor apply gel onto her stomach which peaked his curiosity. The lights were dimmed as the image of their baby became visible on a screen to Dean for the very first time.

"Whoa are they supposed to look like that?" he asked. "Yes Jonathan they are" said Dr. Ibanez. "It's gotten so much bigger since the last time" said Paige. "Of course Saraya" said Dr. Ibanez as she pressed a button so that the two could hear their baby's strong heartbeat. "Would you two like to know the gender?" asked Dr. Ibanez. "No" Paige abruptly said before Dean could have a chance to answer. "Maybe next time. Besides I'm in no mood to go out shopping for any baby stuff." "Speaking of mood" said Dean. "Is it normal for her to be…snippy?" Paige's eyes immediately glared at Dean. "Yes Mr.-"

"Good" said Dean. "Good. It is normal for Saraya to experience a wide range of emotions throughout her pregnancy and after delivery" said Dr. Ibanez. "Oh and doctor…I'd like to know the gender of the baby now" said Dean. "If it's ok with Saraya, I could tell you in private" said Dr. Ibanez. "No it's not" said Paige. "I want it to be a surprise for the two of us." Dr. Ibanez briefly expressed confusion before continuing the ultrasound.

"We going to have a lot of stuff to talk about when we get home" said Paige. "We most certainly are" said dean.

An hour later, the two arrived back at Paige's house and no sooner after setting their feet inside of the door, the two began to argue. "How the hell could to do something like that at my doctor's appointment!?" Paige yelled. "Yelling is not good for the baby" said Dean. "Besides I really wanted to know what we were having. I mean it is part of me too you know?"

"Yes how on Earth could I ever forget that?" Paige said sarcastically as she took a seat on her couch. "Saraya I keep fucking you to let that shit go already" said Dean. "Do you know what it's like to not be able to wrestle anymore and for me to not tell my fans what's really been going on with me lately?" asked Paige. "No" said Dean. "But I know what it's like to be homeless…it's just too damn bad that I am again at the age of 34 after I promised my teenaged self that it would never happen again."

"You don't have to stay with me if you don't want to" said Paige. "Saraya, I told you that I'm not leaving you" said Dean. "But you're not happy being here" said Paige. "You'd much rather be with Colby and I get it. You still love him." Dean became quiet as he abruptly walked out of the room, leaving Paige confused. Sighing, she slowly got up from the couch while placing her hand over her growing stomach and made her way after him.

"Now you want to be in here?" she asked as she entered into her room. "I don't care about anything anymore" said Dean. "I'm doing a lot for you and I'm trying to make you happy while being here and supporting you and your pregnancy all while working my hectic work schedule." "What do you want?" asked Paige. "I want my life back" said Dean. "I want my fiancé back. I want my friends back. I want everybody to stop hating me." "What do you think I want?" asked Paige. Dean shook his head as he removed his jacket and lied down on the bed. "I'm going to take a nap" he said.

"No. Not until we talk about this" said Paige. "There's nothing left to talk about" said Dean. "Let's face it Jon" said Paige. "There's nobody else left out there that would want to be with either one of us so we might as well-"

"What? Be together?" Dean asked. "Yes Jonathan. Be together. Again" Paige said. "It's not that simple" said Dean. "You're asking for the impossible." "Yeah and I-" Paige said before getting interrupted by the sound of her iPhone ringing. "Hello?" she answered. "Oh yes Paul. I'm alright….wait you're what? But…but you guys can't do that. How did you guys even find that out? What do you mean that-yes I know that I haven't been answering your phone calls for the past few weeks but still I-. Yes Paul I…I understand and I will. Have a nice day too." Paige held onto her phone tightly as a shocked expression dawned upon her face.

"What is it Saraya?" asked Dean as he sat up. "What happened?" "I've been released from the company" Paige said. "Fired? How!?" asked Dean. "Because someone told them that the reason why I haven't been in the ring since December was because I am pregnant" said Paige. "But how in the fuck could they find that shit out?" asked Dean. "That secret's been airtight since well…since forever."

"Colby had to been the one to have told them this" said Paige. "He's the only one with the motive to do so." Dean couldn't believe what he was being told. "I'm…sorry Saraya" he said sincerely. "No don't be" said Paige. "It wasn't your fault. It was mine. It was all mine." "I'm going back to New York" said Dean. "I have to. I must confront him about all of this-"

But before Dean could finish, he too was interrupted by the sound of shattering class. "What on Earth was that!?" Dean shouted as he raced past Paige and towards the living room. Paige followed as he peaked through the blinds to discover a mirage of press camps setting outside on the front lawn. "Is…is that a rock?" Paige said as she reached down to pick it up. "Oh my God…someone threw a fucking rock through my window!?"

"Saraya…I'm afraid that things are about to get far worse than somebody tossing a rock through your window" Dean said. "What…do you mean?" Paige asked concernedly. Dean calmly closed the blinds and took a step back and turned to face her. "Jonathan…your silence is scaring me" Paige said. "Please tell me what's going on." "Now Saraya I don't want to alarm you or anything but…there's a whole score of press people setting their camps outside on your front lawn and across the street" said Dean.

"What?! Why!?" asked Paige. "I have not a clue" said Dean as the doorbell rang. "I'll answer it" said Paige. "Saraya I don't think that's such a good idea" said Dean as he quickly ran after her but he was too late as she had already answered the door and was greeted by the rapid flash of cameras and several reporters attempting to jam their way inside. "Ms. Bevis!" one called out. "Paige! Paige! Is it true that you slept with WWE Superstar Dean Ambrose and is pregnant with his love child!?" another one asked. "What?" Paige asked. "Dean! Is it true that you and the current WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins are involved!?" a third reporter asked. "Get outta here!" Dean angrily said as he slammed the door in the faces, locking it. "Jonathan, where are you going!?" Paige called out.

"I'm calling the cops. What this people are doing is illegal! They shouldn't be on your property like this" Dean said as he made his way into the bedroom and proceeded to call for help over. "This is insane" Paige said as she took a seat down on her couch. "I can't believe that this is happening." She sat like that until she heard the sound of another rock crashing through her window, prompting her to scream as she ran into the back room and into Dean's arms. "Oh my God Jonathan! Will they just hurry up and come get these people!?" she while terrified. "Soon Saraya I promise" said Dean. "I promise."

That night, Dean sat next to Paige as she slept and as he did, he was filled with rage towards Seth for putting her through this. Sure he was the one to have cheated on him but because Paige was pregnant with their child and he knew that the stress was effecting them, he was angered. He got up to use her laptop. Luckily for him her password of "Dean1985" was still the same and he had instantly booked himself a one-way ticket to New York. After shutting off the laptop, he quickly got himself ready for his flight and left Paige but as he did, he realized that it wasn't safe for him to leave her all alone. Sighing, he dropped his duffle bag at the front of the door and made his way back into the room and began to gently shake her awake.

"Saraya" he said softly. "Saraya." "Mm what?" Paige said tiredly. "Come on Saraya. We've gotta go" said Dean. "Where are we supposed to go it's after midnight" said Paige. "New York" said Dean. "Specifically Battery Park City." "Why?" Paige asked. "I need to see Colby" said Dean. "It's important." "And you're dragging me with you?" asked Paige. "I have to for your safety" said Dean. "Now let's go. Get your stuff and let's get outta here."

Paige said up and gave Dean a confused look. "Jon I'm 4 and a half months pregnant and I need my rest" she said. "I cannot just up and go with you on a 3 hour flight to New York City at this time of night." "Well the flight's leaving for me at 2:45am but if we hurry I can add you along with me so let's go" said Dean. "Jonathan…you were never this pushy when we were dating" said Paige as she slowly got up from her bed.

"I can't believe that I'm agreeing to do this with you." "Yeah well thank me later" said Dean. "Trust me I won't" said Paige as she quickly tied her hair into a messy bun. "I won't…."
