"Uh oh" Hunter said, looking up as I walked into the office backstage at Raw. I grinned and sat down, making myself comfortable. "What have I done this time?" he asked warily. I grinned, sliding his diary out from under his arm. "Nothing" I said, thumbing through it to find the dates I wanted. "Pen?" he asked, holding one out. I took it from him and grinned. "Floyd is due here" I said, circling the due date. "Which means I'm gonna need to borrow your new intercontinental champion for a week, maybe more." "He told you" Hunter said quietly. I nodded, sliding his diary back to him. "He did" I said, looking him in the eye. "He's my husband Paul, it's what we do. He gets told he's going over, he tells me so I get him time off. Teamwork. Look, please don't think we don't appreciate what you're doing for us, we do. I mean, champ means more money, right? But, it couldn't have come at a worse time for us. Champ also means more interviews and travelling. With the baby due, it's gonna be hard on Jon. I've already told him I'm not travelling anymore after this week. I physically can't." He looked at me quickly. "As of when?" he asked. I shrugged. "Smackdown taping tomorrow is my last" I said. "I'm exhausted Hunter. I need to rest and get things sorted at home ready for Floyd." He nodded. "I guess not knowing what state you're gonna have your first baby in is kinda wrong" he said. I frowned at him. "Floyd will be born in Nevada" I said simply. "We're having a home birth. I gotta go find Jon. Can I leave this all with you to sort?" He nodded. "Leave it with me kid" he grinned. "Ambrose will get the time to be with you, and be there for the birth, no matter what. You have my word." I smiled. "I knew I would" I said, getting up and walking to the door. "I owe you one Paul." He waved me away with a grin and I went to go find Jon.
"Man you're still sexy even when you're carrying a baby elephant" Nick groaned as I walked towards him in the corridor. I smiled. "It's a baby lunatic actually" I said, rubbing my bump absently. "What's up Nick?" "Nothing Jord" he said hugging me gently as soon as I was close enough. "How you feeling?" "Like I'm carrying a baby elephant" I said, laughing as I linked my arm through his. "You headed to catering? Good, I'll tag along. I, uh, want you to hear this from me." "Hear what?" he asked quickly. "Tomorrow night is my last one" I said, not looking at him as we walked. "Time to prepare for Floyd. I can't travel anymore Nick, it's too tiring." "And Ambrose is ok travelling without you?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. "Nope" Jon said, linking his arm through mine. "But Ambrose knows what's best for his wife, and travelling constantly isn't it. Love you." He kissed me on the head and disappeared again. "So not a lunatic" Nick groaned as we walked into catering.
"Hey beautiful!" Paige grinned as I pulled out a seat next to her. I grinned and kissed her cheek before sitting down. "What's happening Paige?" I asked as she went back to picking at her food. She shrugged. "Same shit, different day" she said. "What's up with you?" "She's leaving tomorrow!" Nick yelled from across the room. I groaned. "Way to let me break it to my best friend Nicholas!" I yelled back. "You're welcome!" he yelled, grinning as he carried on piling a plate with food. "Leaving?" Paige spluttered. "As in, forever?" I shook my head quickly. "As in, maternity leave" I said, pointing at the bump. "Travelling is too much now, I just can't do it. I don't have ankles anymore Paige!" She grinned. "As long as it's not forever" she said. "And auntie Paige can have baby cuddles, then we're good." I nodded. "Course you can" I said hugging her. "I'd better go find Jon..." "Corridor" Colby said walking in. "Push-ups. His segment is first. Get out there momma!" I smiled. "Thank Colby" I said, kissing him on my way past.
"Oh man" I groaned, leaning against the wall as I watched Jon go through his pre-match warm up. Push ups. Fingertip push ups. Joe caught me swooning and grinned. "It's moves like those that got you in that mess Goodie" he said, walking over to me. "Nuh uh" Jon said, standing up and pushing him out of the way. He picked me up and pinned me against the wall, wrapping my legs around him. "I bet it was this one. What do you reckon Jord?" he asked, winking as Joe pretended to be sick. "I reckon you're gonna break your back if you keep picking me up" I said kissing him softly. He moaned and kissed me back hungrily. "Don't care" he whispered. "How did your meeting with Hunter go?" "Jordan!" Hunter yelled down the corridor. I groaned. "Guess I'm gonna go find out" I said as Jon put me down. "Love you." "Love you too" he said, kissing me before letting me go to Hunter.
