Chapter 49
The very next day, Colby and I went to my doctor. I was only six weeks. However, a few weeks later when I was eight weeks, we told the news to certain family members and certain friends. Colby and I also told Paul and Stephanie. Everyone was excited just like they had been with Jackson.
I was not the only one who was pregnant. Becky revealed to me that she was pregnant herself. We were on the same sequence of being pregnant. Her due date was my due date: October 18. It was funny and exciting. Both of us had had great nights with our husbands after Royal Rumble.
There was excitement with my pregnancy, but there was also WrestleMania to get ready for. Colby was busy like usual. It was the big lead up to the event where he would win the Universal Champion. It was early in my pregnancy as well. I would be exactly twelve weeks pregnant the day of Mania.
I had my in-laws to check in on me and Jackson while Colby was on the road. We were all able to get through the next month all the way to the week of WrestleMania. My in-laws and my mom headed to the festivities of WrestleMania with Jackson, Colby, and myself. WWE had scheduled me for an appearance at WrestleMania Axxess. Not everyone knew I was pregnant. Stephanie had asked if I wanted to be booked for an appearance. I said yes. I wanted to see my fans. Plus, I was starting to show with being pregnant.
My appearance took place on Friday first thing in the morning. Hall of Fame was that night and I didn't want to miss that with my husband. I loved the Hall of Fame.
"There she is," I heard a fan say as I walked up to my table with a security guard for my appearance.
I smiled and waved to my fans as they clapped, cheered, screamed, and/or shouted at my appearance. It was a very long line of fans like usual. But I never got tired of my fans at appearances. I hated being bothered sometimes outside of them. It depended on where I was when I was being bothered by fans. I definitely disliked being bothered a lot of the time when I was at the airport.
"Hey, everyone," I said.
The outfit I had decided to wear for Axxess was the latest Seth Rollins T-shirt in the Women's size with jeans and high heeled shoes. I wore my Legit Boss necklace and rings as well. That would never change. Even when I was eighty years old. The Legit Boss, Sasha Banks, grey and wrinkly would have her Legit Boss necklace and rings. Plus, some form of the glasses.
I had a lot of fun with fans. I had fun taking pictures, signing autographs and talking with them. I ended up crying a couple times, because some fans were crying. They were so happy to meet me. My emotions were too much for it. It always touched my heart when I could make the dreams of my fans come true as mine had.
"I loved seeing you at Royal Rumble," A fan commented.
"Thank you," I replied.
"Will you be getting into the ring again soon? Say on Sunday?"
"Nope, not on Sunday. I have to stay out of the ring just for a little bit. But I will be in it again, definitely. I hope you have fun on Sunday anyway, though."
"Thanks. Tell Seth I said good luck for Sunday."
"I sure will," I smiled.
The fan smiled and walked away.
Colby and I were going to tell the whole world about my pregnancy. Everyone who already didn't know was going to know. Colby had wanted to reveal it in an interview he did after he won the Universal Title at Mania.
"Can we tell everyone on the Red Carpet tonight?" I asked as we got ready for the Hall of Fame.
"Yeah, we can reveal you're pregnant tonight," Colby replied.
"Yay."
Colby laughed.
An hour later, we were at the venue for the Hall of Fame and being interviewed on the Red Carpet.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm standing here with the 2020 Royal Rumble and Number One Contender for the Universal Championship, Seth Rollins as well as his beautiful wife, the Legit Boss, Sasha Banks," Cathy Kelley said.
"Hi Cathy," Colby said.
"Hi. And very nice to see you, Sasha."
"Thanks, you too, Cathy," I said.
"How have you been?"
"I've been great. I've been enjoying motherhood."
"That's right you two are the proud parents of a son named Jackson," Cathy said.
"We are," I replied.
"Yep," Colby smiled.
"How old is he now?" Cathy asked.
"He'll be one-year old next month on the 28th," I replied.
"May 28th," Colby commented. "Which is also my birthday."
"I bet that'll be fun," Cathy said.
"It was great when he was born last year. But it'll be even better when we welcome our second child in October! Sasha is currently pregnant with our second child."
"Congratulations!"
"Thank you," I smiled. "I will be exactly twelve weeks pregnant on Sunday, in fact."
"And I will be walking out of WrestleMania with the Universal Title on Sunday as well," Colby said.
"Congratulations again and good luck to you this Sunday, Seth," Cathy said.
Colby and I headed to our seats after that.
"My phone's a buzzing," Colby said.
"I bet you its Twitter or social media with fans very excited about our announcement," I replied.
"I wouldn't be surprised." Colby reached into his suit jacket pocket and pulled his cell phone out. "Yep. Its Twitter. It's the fans congratulating us on baby number two. I need to turn my alerts off now. I only need my phone going off in case it's something about Jackson."
"He's in good hands with his grandparents. But I know what you mean."
Colby messed with his phone for a few seconds and placed it back in his jacket pocket.
"Hey, Mercedes and Colby," A voice called.
The two of us looked to see who it was. It was a photographer.
"How about a couple pictures?"
"Of course," I said.
"Do you want us sitting or standing?" Colby asked.
"Stand up."
The two of us stood up. Colby wrapped his arm around me.
"All right, there we go."
The photographer took a couple pictures.
"Here's something for the fans," Colby said. He placed his hand on my stomach. I laughed. I placed both my hands on his.
"There you go," The photographer said. He took a few more pictures and then Colby and myself sat back down.
A few hours later after the Hall of Fame Ceremony was over, Colby and I hung around a bit to talk with people. People were congratulating us on baby number two. Those who didn't know were congratulating us. Everyone already knew Becky and Fergal were expecting. But they knew of me and Colby now and they also now knew Becky and I also had the same due date
"Team B.A.E. is pregnant together," Becky commented.
"And we're both due on the same day too," I added.
"Like I said, Team B.A.E."
"What does that make you and me, Fergal?" Colby asked.
"Husbands of Team B.A.E.," Fergal replied. "However, after Sunday you'll be the Universal Champion and I'll be the WWE World Heavyweight Champion."
"Then that makes me, Mrs. WWE World Heavyweight Champion," Becky said.
"And me, Mrs. Universal Champion," I said.
Colby and Fergal laughed.
An hour later, Colby and I were lying in bed in our hotel room.
"I love Becky being pregnant too," I said.
"I do too," Colby said. "Fergal is so excited to become a dad."
"And she's excited to become a mom."
"Fergal wants the baby to be a little girl."
"So, does Becky. And I want ours to be a girl too!"
"Me too," Colby said.
I smiled. "If the baby is a girl can we name her Serena?"
"Serena?"
"No, can we name her Serenity? But we'll call her Serena for short."
Colby laughed. "Serenity and Serena as in Sailor Moon, right?"
"Yes! And if it's a boy…"
"Darien?"
"Yes!"
Colby laughed. "I'm saying no to the name Darien. But I'm not saying no to the name Serenity or Serena."
"Fair enough."
"I love you so much," He laughed again, kissing me.
"Remember the first time you told me you loved me?" I asked.
"I do. It was after the WWE Hall of Fame in 2016 and I was saying you looked great from being all dressed up, because you looked absolutely beautiful. Then you were saying you would like to get undressed and that you wanted me to be the one to do it."
"Still very true. You're the one I want to undress me."
Colby chuckled.
"And by the way," I said.
"What?"
"I love you so much too."
Colby smiled and kissed me.
