A/N: I'm back with another update. I wasn't able to update as much this month or last because I was preparing for finals. I finally took them, so now I can get back to the story. Thanks for reviewing the last chapter Trishrocks, jcott3, and Ainat.
Adam unzipped his bag and searched through until he found some aspirin. The headache had gotten even worse in a matter of a few seconds.
He made his way into the kitchen and grabbed a bottled water out of the fridge. He gulped the asiprin down with the water and sat the bottled water down on the nightstand. Adam kicked off his shoes and lied in bed for about an hour until his headache passed over.
An hour later he woke up. Seconds later a knock came the door. Adam crawled out of bed and answered the door. When he opened it, there was Trish standing there with a smile on her face.
''Hey, Amy, Jay, and I were going out for breakfast did you want to join us or are you still not feeling too well?'' Trish asked.
''I'm fine now,'' he said with a smile. ''Yeah, I'd like to join you guys. What restuarant were we going to?'' Adam asked leaning against the door.
''Its called, "The Blue Moon Cafe". Stace recommended it to us. I don't really know what its about.''
''She's not going?''
''No, she decided to go visit her family for awhile until the signing, so now its just the four of us going. Are you hungry?''
''Starved. I may just order the whole menu.'' He said smiling as he stuffed his hands in his jean pockets.
''You said that last time when you ordered room service in Chicago.''
''Yeah, I did, so what time should I be ready?''
''In about thirty minutes. Meet us down in the lobby.''
''Okay, are you driving?''
''I was, why were you gonna offer to drive me there?'' Trish asked smiling back at him.
''Maybe...'' Adam said scoping his surroundings. ''Yes.'' He said finally meeting his eyes with Trish's.
''Took you long enough to answer. You don't having a problem with me riding with you, do you, Copeland?''
''Of course not, Stratigias.'' He said adding emphasis to her last name.
Trish smiled, cocking her head slightly. ''Well it sure seemed like one. I'll be ready in thirty minutes. Don't wait up for me. I'll be down in the lobby before you.'' Trish said putting her hand on on her hip and turning on her heel.
As she made her way across the hall to her room, Adam blushed with a half smile on his face, that revealed a dimple on his right cheek. She didn't even have try, she made him crazy for her just by saying a few words. He loved hearing her voice as well as seeing her beautiful face. He was still kicking himself in the gut for not kissing her as soon as he did when they were lying on his couch together in Tampa. If only Jay hadn't knocked on the door. Talk about bad timing.
Adam quitely chuckled and closed his door once he saw Trish enter her room. He wished he was the one sharing a room with her. Although she didn't need a pair of strong arms to keep her warm at night, Adam was sure she wouldn't have complained if a oh-so familiar pair did. He knew how some hotels could be drafty at night and she knew how much she loved the rain. He could keep her warm in his arms all night and day as the rain hit the window. All she had to do was say the word and he would be there.
Snapping out of his thoughts about he and Trish, Adam finally closed and locked the door. He returned back to his blue duffle bag to figure out what he we was going to wear for his morning out with his best friends as well as the autograph signing in the afternoon. After debating for about ten minutes, Adam finally decided to just wear a pair of jeans, a grey slong sleeved shirt, his leather jacket, and a grey beanie cap, since it was chilly out.
Twenty minutes later Adam was out the door putting his beanie on his blonde head. He caught the elevator. Once the elevator reached the lobby, Adam decided to sit on the couch to wait for the others. A few minutes had passed and there was Jay coming out of the elevator. Adam waved at his friend as he walked over to the couch to greet him also.
''Hey, bro, you waiting on someone?'' Jason asked. He must not have known that he was going also, of course he didn't. He still didn't know about he and Trish's reconciliation either.
''I was actually waiting for Trish. She didn't tell you that I was joining you guys?''
''No, she didn't. I didn't even know you two settled your differences,'' Taking a seat next to Adam, Jason asked, ''What made you two settle them anyway?''
''Like a fool, I came to her room drunk last night. I don't remember much of what happened last night, but I do know that she took care of me while I was out of it...despite our problems. We had made up this morning when I finally got over myself and let her explain the real reason as to why she did lie to me. The real reason was because she wanted to protect me from Chris. She went back to him, so she could protect me.''
''Now you know why she did what she did.'' Jason said.
''Yeah, I do,'' Adam said quietly, looking up to see who stepped off the elevator this time. ''Speaking of her...there she is.'' Adam said as a smile appeared on his face. ''Gosh, she's beautiful.''
Jason just looked at his friend, then Trish as a smile formed on his face also. He too could see how crazy he was about her.
Trish was not alone as she and Amy walked over to the two men. Jay and Adam stood to their feet and greeted the women.
''Didn't I tell you not to wait up on me?'' Trish asked playfully as she, stepped closer to Adam, making him nervous. He stepped back slightly before he ended up making an even bigger fool out of himself than last night.
''A guy can't wait up on his best friend?'' Adam said carrying on he and Trish's game. ''My mistake.'' He said holding his hand up in defense.
''Enough joking around you two, we have places to go and people to see.'' Jay interjected.
''He's right, you ready to go, Ms. Stratigias?'' Adam asked putting his arm out for Trish and waiting for her to link her arm with his.
''As I'll ever be.'' Trish giggled and linked her arm with Adam's.
The four walked into the rlestaurant together. The restaurant wasn't as crowded as usual since it was a weekday, so it was rather easy to find a seat. The four found a booth and took a seat. As they waited for someone to serve them, Adam started up a conversation among his friends.
''I forgot how cold Baltimore could. Its chilly out there.'' Adam stated.
''I know, right? When yoy live in such hot climate you forget.'' Jason said with a smile. ''I don't know if I'm going to be doing anything else after the signing.''
''You're not going to visit Steph and the baby?'' Trish asked, tucking some loose hairs behind her ear.
''I forgot about that. Amy were you going?'' He asked the redhead.
''Yeah, I was. Did you wanna come with me? We could just drive to the signing from here and go to the hospital afterwards. Its up to you.''
''I can do that,'' He then turned away from Amy and looked back at Trish. ''I guess am. What about you guys?''
''Were you still going?'' Trish asked Adam.
''Yeah, you wanna ride with me. I don't mind.''
''Sure. Well looks like all four of us are going.'' Trish said.
Then their waiter came over.
''Hey, you guys, welcome to "Blue Moon Cafe". I'm your waiter, Cole, I'll be serving you this morning.'' The young waiter said, handing the four their menus. ''Would guys like to start off the morning with something to drink?'' He asked pulling a notepad and pen out of his apron.
Trish looked into her menu, and looked back up a few seconds later at the waiter. ''I think I'll have a glass of orange, please.'' She said.
''Two, please.'' Adam said looking up from his menu as well.
''Make that three.'' Jason said.
The waiter chuckled. ''And you, miss?'' He asked Amy.
''An orange juice for me too.'' The redheaded Diva laughed.
''Okay, so that's four orange juices. Do you guys need time to order or do you already know what you want?''
''I don't exactly know what to get, what are you getting?'' Trish whispered to Adam as she looked over his shoulder to see what he was looking at on the menu.
''I was thinking about getting some french toast with powdered sugar on top. Maybe fresh fruit on the side.''
''Is that what you want, sir?'' The waiter asked holding the pen down on the notepad.
''...Yeah.'' He said. He then turned back to Trish. ''Do you still like stuffed french toast, they have that on the menu.'' Adam suggested.
''I do, but I think I'm going to get the steak omelet instead,'' She looked up from her menu and smiled at him. ''Thanks for the suggestion.'' She said kindly.
''Aw, your welcome.''
The waiter took Amy and Jay's orders and went to the back to place the four wrestlers' orders.
An hour later the wrestlers headed to the autograph signing at Best Buy to sign autographs as well as promoting the latest SVR. After signing over a hundred autographs, some Superstars and Divas that were featured at the signing left while others stuck around to take more pictures with the fans. Trish and Adam were the two of some wrestlers who did stick around. Ten minutes later Adam and Trish exited the electronics store to visit the newest addition to the McMahon family.
Trish sat in the front seat of Adam's black F-150 rental with a bright smile on her face. After shutting her door, he walked over to his side of the truck and hopped inside the driver's seat. He noticed Trish was smiling.
''What are you smiling about?'' He asked smiling as he shut the door of the truck.
''Well finally we get to see the new Levesque baby. I can't wait to see her. She seemed so adorable from the picture the girls and I saw on Torrie's phone.'' Trish said.
''Paul says she's still known as the Levesque baby, let's hope she has a name by the time we see her.''
''Yes indeed.'' Trish giggled.
Adam put the key in the ignition and two were off to the hospital. The drive from Best Buy took about fifteen minutes. Adam checked the time on his watch to see if they still had some time to visit Steph and the baby. The watch read 4:45, so they still had some time to see the little one.
The two arrived in the hospital and went to the front desk in the lobby to see where the labor and delivery floor was.
''Its just on the fourth floor. The elevators are right down that hall, guys.'' The receptionist with gray hair said as she pointed to the elevators located not too far from the front desk.
Adam and Trish thanked the older woman and went to the elevators. As they waited for a free elevator Trish thought of something.
''You think we should get the baby a gift from the gift shop? Like a balloon and some kind of useful item for the baby or at least something cute?'' Trish asked.
''That's a good idea. Wasn't the gift shop right by the entrance?''
''Mhm. Come on.''
Looking through the gift for almost an hour, the two finally found a few gifts that was just right for the baby to go along with her balloon. They bought her a pink first piggy bank and a pair of pink booties and hat set. Adam had to pull Trish out of the gift shop before she decided to buy anything else for the baby. They still needed to see her and were never going to do that as long as Trish kept trying to buy gifts after gifts.
''I understand this is special to you, but we have to get going. We're going to miss our visiting hours.'' Adam said as he and Trish walked pass the gift shop.
''I know, but it just so many, cute adorable little things in there. I'd buy the whole gift shop if I could.''
Adam smiled, ''I'm sure you would, Trish.'' He said and kissed the top of her head softly.
The two got onto the elevator and went up to the labor and delivery floor. Trish saw a nurse's station further down from the elevators and walked over to the desk with Adam.
''Good evening, is there someone you're looking for?'' A nurse asked she pushed her glasses up from the bridge of her nose.
''Yes, we are, we're looking for Stephanie and Paul Levesque. The mother should still be here.'' Trish said.
''Adam, Trish?'' Paul said coming from a room across from the station.
''Hey.'' Adam and Trish said unision.
''Do you know these people, sir?'' The nurse asked.
''Yes, I do. They're friends of ours. I'm Paul Levesque.''
''Yes, Mr. Levesque. Your friends were looking for you. Okay, if its alright with you, then they can visit the baby, do you want them to?''
''Of course.'' Paul said.
''Great. There is a sink right over there,'' The nurse pointed to a sink located on the wall. ''Please wash your hands thoroughly, and you'll be one step closer to seeing the baby right after I hand you these visitor stickers.'' She said with a warm smile.
Adam and Trish did what they were required to do and received the tags from the nurse. They followed Paul to a small hospital room.
''Steph, sweetie, we have visitors.'' Paul said knocking on the door gently as he entered the room.
Stephanie turned over from her side and opened her blue eyes. She smiled when she saw who her visitors were.
''Adam. Trish, you came.'' The Billion Dollar Princess said.
Paul walked over to the bed to help his wife sit up straight.
''Thank you, sweetie.'' She said. ''Would you guys like to hold her?''
''Yeah, sure.'' Adam and Trish agreed together.
Paul took the baby out of the clear bassinet and handed her over to Trish once she took a seat in the rocking chair sitting across from Stephanie's bed. The baby whined for a few seconds before she warmed up to Trish, her blonde hair sticking up. Trish stroked the baby's hair and looked up at Paul and Steph.
''What's her name?'' She asked.
''Emma,'' Paul said.
''Emma Noelle Levesque.'' Stephanie said finishing the sentence.
''Aww. Hello, Emma, its very nice to meet you.'' Trish said as she held the baby's small hand in hers.
''We got the baby some gifts.'' Adam said. ''Do you mind?'' He asked wondering if it was alright to put the bags on the bed.
''Of course not.'' Stephanie said.
Adam sat the bag of gifts down on the bed. He dug his hand in the bag and first started off with the baby's first piggy bank, which Steph, and surprisingly Paul cooed over. He then showed them the pink booties and hat set. Steph loved that even more. Out of all the gifts that she received for her baby shower she yet to get a pair of booties for Emma. There were a couple more presents that Adam showed. The last one was a card that said, "Baby's First Dollar". Stephanie cooed over that as well.
''She's going to be a millionaire like her grandfather.'' Trish said laughing at the card.
''I know, right?'' Stephanie said placing the card back in the bag. ''Thank you so much, guys. Those gifts mean alot to us.''
''Yeah, they do. Thanks, guys.'' Paul said snuggling his face with Steph's.
''Adam, would you like to hold her?'' Trish asked.
''...Uh...yeah, sure.''
Trish rose to her feet with the baby still in her arms. Adam sat in the rocking chair and held out his arms waiting to receive the baby. He couldn't remember how to correctly hold a newborn, so he needed Trish's help to show him how. The moment was so cute.
