Two months had passed. Casey could use crutches now. She was five months pregnant and had a baby bump. Randy still had no idea she was pregnant. Casey knew it would be better this way. She didn't want to create any more stress for him then he already had. He could devote all of his time to the baby she knew she his already. She knew there was a better chance it was John's anyway. They already had two to support her theory. She and John had been getting along really good. The kids still stayed at John's parents but came over almost every day. John was gone. Casey was sitting in the living room talking to Eve on the phone.
"So how are you feeling?" Eve asked.
"I'm feeling ok." "I don't think I can stand five more months in this cast."
"I know it's gotta be tough and on top of that you're pregnant." "When do you find out what it is?"
"Today right after John gets back from the store we're going to the doctor."
"I'm just glad the baby came out of the accident ok."
"Me to." "I don't think I could handle it if something happened to another baby."
"How are you and John getting along?"
"Great." "It's been nice spending time with him."
"From the way you're talking it sounds like you might take him back." "You'd never do that though." "Would you?"
"I might."
"What?"
"People deserve a second chance."
"I can't believe what I'm hearing."
"We've been talking a lot, he's changed I know it." "It's been great especially with the kids." "They love us in the same house."
"What about that thing that happened with Kelly?"
"I still haven't forgotten that but the past is the past." "We've talked about it, he feels really bad especially for the whole abortion situation." "He says if he could take it back he would." "Besides Kelly isn't around anymore."
"So you're willing to forgive John but not Randy?"
"I've forgiven Randy more times then I can count." She heard the front door open. "I have to go John's here." She hung up.
"Hey." John said going into the kitchen.
"Hey I'll help you." She got her crutches and got up. She walked into the kitchen. "What did you get?"
"All kinds of good stuff." "Fruits, vegetables, yogurt, junk food for the kids."
"Good."
"I'm thinking about buying a new place."
"Why?"
"With the new baby on the way I'll need more room." "I've been meaning to ask you, since we're not married anymore whose last name is the baby taking?"
"Yours." "It might as well."
"Thanks."
"Uh-oh."
"What?"
"We'd better get going or we're gonna be late."
They were in the waiting room.
"So what do you want this time?" John asked.
"I want another girl."
"We do make beautiful girls together."
"Boys to."
"Yes we do." "I wanted to ask you in two months is the Wrestlemania Hall Of Fame ceremony." "Do you wanna come with me?"
"I'm supposed to stay off my foot remember?"
"You still can we'll just rent a wheelchair for the night."
"I don't know I hate those things."
"Please I don't wanna go alone."
"Ok."
"Good."
"Casey Connor." A nurse said.
They went into a examination room.
"Hello again Casey, John."
"Hi doctor Calvin." Casey said.
"How are Todd and Grace?"
"Great."
"Ok Casey you know the drill lay down." She got hooked the machine.
"Why does that jelly always have to be so cold?"
"You figure you'd be used to it by now." John said.
"Well I'm not."
"Congratulations." Doctor Calvin said. "It looks like you're having another baby girl."
"That's great." She said.
"I guess we should have kept some of Grace's things." John said.
After they left the doctor. John dropped Casey off and went to get the kids. They were all sitting in the living room.
"Guys we have great news." John said.
"Mama have the baby?" Grace said.
"No sweetie." Casey said. "Mommy still has a big belly, see?"
"Yeah."
"We found out what the baby is." "It's a girl." "You're gonna be a big sister Grace."
"I be big like Todd."
"Yeah."
"We can play all the games I used to play with Grace when she was little." Todd said. "Daddy?"
"What?"
"Can we stay here tonight?"
"Ask mommy." He went over to Casey.
"Mommy we wanna stay here tonight." "Don't we Grace."
"Yeah." Grace said.
"Ok." Casey said. "Daddy's gonna have to put you in bed though because mommy can't."
"Why?" Grace asked.
"Because of mommy's booboo."
"Mama have that booboo a long time."
"I know but after your sister gets here it'll be just about healed."
After a few hours John put the kids to bed. He came back downstairs. Casey was sitting on the couch.
"What's wrong?" He asked noticing she was uncomfortable.
"My back's sore."
"Can you lean up at all?" She did. He sat behind her and started rubbing her back. "That feel better at all?"
"Yeah thanks." "John I really wanna thank you for taking care of me." "If it wasn't for you I don't know how I would've taken care of the kids or anything."
"I don't mind." "I've enjoyed it." "I really missed talking to you like we've been talking the last couple months."
"Me to." "I'm glad we've had this time to talk about things." "When I first came to stay here I really didn't wanna be here but over the past couple months it still feels like it used to be, before everything went wrong."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels that way."
"Sometimes I don't know if I should feel that way."
"Why?"
"You know why, because of everything that happened."
"I know I hurt you, I know." "I'd never do anything like that again." "Think about it, we wouldn't be feeling like this if there wasn't still something there." "All I know is you're all I think about and I don't want that to stop." She looked at him.
"John, you're gonna make me cry." Very hesitantly he kissed her, making sure that's what she wanted. When she kissed him back he knew for sure. It grew passionate very quickly. He carried her upstairs. When they got to his bedroom she broke the kiss. "John be careful, my foot."
"It's alright baby I got it." He kissed her and laid her on the bed making sure she was comfortable. He carefully got on the bed. They kissed. He broke the kiss and looked down at her. "Are you sure you wanna do this?" "We don't have to." "I want you to be sure about this."
"I'm sure." She kissed him. He kissed her back.
When they finished they were laying there.
"John since we don't know where this is going yet let's not say anything to the kids." "I don't wanna get there hopes up."
"Yeah, we should wait."
"Goodnight."
"Goodnight."
John was just about asleep when Casey's cell phone started to ring. He got out of bed to silence it so it wouldn't wake her up. When he saw the number he recognized it. It was Randy's number. He hit the silence button. A few minutes later the tone went off that said Casey had a voicemail. John took Casey's phone went into the bathroom and shut the door. He hit the number one for voicemail.
"Please enter your password."
"Fuck I don't know the password." He thought.
He put in the numbers, eight, six, three, three, those numbers spelled out Todd.
"Sorry that password is incorrect." "Please enter your password."
"Fuck."
Then he put in the numbers, four, six, two, two three, those numbers spelled out Grace.
"You have one unheard message."
"Hi Casey, it's Randy." "I just heard about your accident." "Call me back I wanna make sure you're ok." "Bye."
John deleted the message and the call.
"I don't think so asshole." John thought. "I've almost got her back and you're not fucking it up, not this time." "Have fun raising another guy's kid, you dumb fucker." He smiled.
