Seth rollins babe: Thank you! I hope you like it : )

CiCix3: So you disliked me before? Oh, the shock! (falls down on the floor) It sounds just like you to be fussing about it. Tell him your welcome ; )

Daken's sister: Ooh, lucky you! Says the girl who was eating ice cream herself just yesterday, lol. Can't imagine how painful it must be : )

Jade: Damn it! I'm gonna have to try something else (thinks to self) Just kidding, before you unleash on me! It does doesn't it? The crazy weirdos dream team duo!
Yes, now that would be an interesting read : )
I decided to keep the weirdness down to a minimum. At first I was gonna have us laughing for no reason because Iris was thanking them for doing their job but then I thought that wasn't entirely normal and I better not.
Yes well not all Mother's are like Andrea now are they? Not all asses!
Yes! I got you to get emotional, mission accomplished!
Are you talking about yourself as being the guarding angel? ; ) Lol, I know you mean Seth.
The gang is back, for sure! Yeah he does and I think baby's can sense that kind of thing.
Same here! Giving me anything with sugar in is not a good idea. I've had times where I've just been laughing for an hour like a maniac and my family wonder what the hell is up with me. I liked us too! And you're welcome, I really enjoyed writing it and I'm glad you liked it. Had to do something special for someone's who's reviewed every single chapter, I've never known anyone like that.
And don't worry, no spoiler will be on this page! Although its really hard not to put them on. Have a nice busy time? Nope, that sounds wrong. Enjoy hell! : )

Ayesha: Thank you, I love me too! Ha ha ha, I'll buy you a new one! ; )

Calwitch: Your welcome! I couldn't keep her out for too long, I love writing her! Plus, everyone on here was so eager for her to wake up. But I guess you can sense she is so nervous because she did act selfishly by keeping the two apart and not telling anyone the truth. Thanks for reviewing! : )

Wolfgirl2013: I bet he was! : )

AmbroseLover726: I love you too! I know, I know, I'm amazing. Lol : )

PunkShieldGirl: Wait no longer! : )

Shaq Gaddy: Lazy, lazy, lazy! Glad you cleared it up though cause I was like 'What was supposed to be written after that?!' Nearly went crazy! I hate when things don't get finished. Says the girl who keeps writing cliffhangers, lol. Uh, no, that doesn't work for me. I'll be busy at that time! : )

Paisley2: Too right, lol. Was this close to doing that but then I thought I don't want others calling us creepy stalkers ; ) Phew, no battering. Aw, you're so sweet : )

Bianca3: Why do I get the impression that maybe, just maybe, you might be bouncing up and down? If you are, I'd like to join : )

Becky: Thanks love! Yes I did enjoy it! Liked the ending except for one little detail which we all know what it was. No spoilers on here unfortunately, its explained why above! Right now I'm enjoying Monday Night Raw! Glad Natalya is back! : )


CHAPTER 55:

"Um, ok," I say, looking at him with smile. "What about? Because I'm really tired," I say, rubbing the back of my head and faking a yawn, doing anything to get out of this. That's how desperate I am not to talk about this. Especially since I know how wrong I was to even think about keeping Seth and Evan apart for their whole lives.

"You know what about," says Seth and I can't detect any signs of anger on his face. Which is surprising because its something so serious. Most people would demand an answer but maybe Seth knows how guilty I feel and is trying to take it easy.

"Seth, I just came back from the hospital, do we really have to do this right now?" I question, hoping that'll get me out of this.

"No," says Seth as relief washes over me. "But we will. Soon," he promises me before lying down on the couch. I go to my room and close the door, I can't do this. I can't have that talk with him, I feel so guilty about everything I've done but at the same time I do owe him an explanation. I shake my head and lie down in bed. It's weird how I still feel tired, despite having been asleep in a coma all this time.


I stir awake as I hear crying and realize it's Evan. On natural instincts I immediately pull down the covers and get up, steadying myself as I feel dizzy for a second. I then walk over to nursery but don't hear the crying anymore. I stand in the doorway and there's Seth, standing next to the cot with Evan in his arms. I lean against the doorframe and watch him.

"See? It's ok," coos Seth which I find extremely adorable. They look really good together which makes what I did so much more worse. "I told you I'd get him," he then says.

"I know," I say with a smile on my face as he looks up at me. "You're a natural Seth," I then compliment him and can tell that means a lot to him.

"That may be true but I still can't make up for him being hungry," says Seth and I walk over to them. Seth gestures for me to sit down in the rocking chair and hands Evan over to me.

"Hey baby," I say, still finding this whole thing surreal.

"Call me when you're done," says Seth and leaves. I take down my top and start to feed Evan, my gaze staying on the door from which Seth left. Seth has been taking such good care of Evan whilst I've been in a coma, I was so wrong to keep Evan away from him in the first place. Ariana has been telling me everything he's been doing and I'm honestly amazed. He's such a good Father and Evan looks like he's been treated like royalty. I have to apologize to Seth. I have to tell him I'm sorry about what I did because…Evan would have done just fine with only his Father.

"Seth?" I call him as I pull my top back up. I then stand up and put Evan down. I don't trust myself alone with Evan because of the dizzy spells I've been having, what if I fall again and Evan is in my hands? I walk out to he living room and move to see Seth has dozed off on the couch. I notice his blanket is on the floor and bend down, gently placing it over Seth. I brush some of his hair back from his face and smile. I then go back to my bedroom and get into bed.


"A month?" I question in disbelief as Ariana nods her head and I stand over Evan changing his nappy in the nursery. "I've been in a coma for a month?" I questions and she nods her head again.

"Worst month of my life," comments Ariana and I smile at her. "Seriously, I'm so accustomed to your stupid nattering that it was weird you were so quiet for so long," she tells me as I chuckle. "You know, you may have been in a coma but you're doing this mother thing as if you've done it for years," she says as I get Evan dressed and then pick him up.

"I don't know, it just comes to me," I tell her. "The same will happen when you have your own," I then tell her which actually makes her go slightly red.

"About that," starts Ariana and then puts her hands on my shoulders. "I was honored that you chose me and Dean to look after Evan but I'm glad we didn't get the chance to," she tells me and I nod my head. She doesn't push to ask anything about Seth being the Father, the one thing I know they all want to know.

"What's taking so long?" asks Dean, coming into the room and taking Evan off of me. He then leaves as I stand there in shock.

"Come on, before he comes in and grabs me next," jokes Ariana and we both head out. I sit down on the couch next to Roman and watch Dean play with Evan on the other couch with Ariana next to him.

"Isn't she a hot one? Don't worry, Uncle Dean will teach you all about the ladies," Dean talks to Evan.

"You most certainly will not!" I tell him off. "I'm teaching Evan to respect women," I then say.

"Baby, don't I respect you?" Dean directs his question at Ariana.

"Only when it suits you," comments Ariana and Dean fakes being hurt.

"See? You put your heart on the line and they stomp all over it," Dean continues talking to Evan. I look around and see everyone's here and then look at Seth who's sat on the recliner, keeping his eyes on Evan and Dean. He's probably making sure Dean doesn't drop him.

"Guys," I say, getting everyone's attention. "I know the last few weeks have been hard on everyone, especially Seth," I point out and I see that his full attention is on me now. "And I guess I owe you and everyone an explanation," I say, looking at him.

"Iris, you don't have to," starts Seth but I shake my head.

"Everyone deserves to know why," I say, knowing Seth deserves an apology in front of everyone. "I, um, when I found out I was pregnant I knew it was Seth's. But because I'd slept with Rick not long after, I sort of went into denial I guess. I told myself the baby couldn't be Seth's and…I didn't want to accept it because that meant there was a possibility he'd reject the baby like he did me," I explain, getting up and walking over to the window. "I know it sounds ridiculous now but at that time Seth was a different person and…when I first got here I did for a second consider telling the truth but then, Seth came asking questions and, he called Evan a…you know," I say and glance at Seth to see him close his eye for a second.

"I didn't mean it," says Seth looking over at me and standing up. Seth calling Evan a mistake was the worst thing he could have done at the moment but we've gotten past all that now.

"I know," I tell him. "But it hurt me so I figured if I believed Rick was the Father the you'd all think the same thing. And it was all ok till Rick came to the baby shower and tried to win me and the baby back. I couldn't live a life like a lie and I thought I was going to die anyway so I just lied the whole time. I thought no one would ever find out after I'd died and given the baby to Dean and Ari," I tell them all as tears go down my eyes. I then walk over to Seth and bend down, taking his hands in mine. "I am so sorry for everything that I've done," I start and see surprise in his eyes. "You are the best Father Evan could ever have and I'm…I'm really sorry for trying to take that away from you. I was wrong," I say and the let go of him, get back up and disappear into my room. There, I did it.


SETH POV

"Go after her," says Ariana, placing a hand on my shoulder and without another word I go over to Iris's bedroom, I don't bother knocking and just go in, we need to talk amongst ourselves about all of this. Iris looks up from where she's sat on her bed.

"I'm so sorry," says Iris and I walk over and take a seat next to her.

"No, I'm sorry," I tell her, placing a hand on her knee. "I shouldn't have called him a mistake and should have handled it better. I was relieved at first but as time went on I realized that I would have loved to be the Father to the baby you're carrying," I explain to her.

"Really?" she asks me, looking at me with those big beautiful eyes.

"Yeah," I tell her the truth.

"I'm sorry for trying to keep you guys apart and…looking at you both now, I realize just how wrong I was," Iris explains to me and I can clearly see the regret in her eyes. "I guess when I made the decision I still couldn't get past your betrayal and everything you did. Maybe a part of me thought you didn't deserve to have our kid in your life because of all the awful things you did to me, I dunno," she goes on to explain as I just sit there and listen. "I should have known it was wrong to do that, it was wrong to punish you both. You were already making up for everything and Evan? He wasn't to blame for any of this. I can't believe I nearly succeeded in punishing him for life. What kind of a Mother am I?" she goes on to question, her hand over her mouth.

"A good one," I answer, putting an arm around her to comfort her. "Iris, I've never known anyone to love their kid so much that they were willing to give up their life. Yes, you made a stupid decision but completely understand. I've done shit like that too," I explain to her.

"I should have tried harder to get past everything," admits Iris, nodding her head. "I should have tried harder to forgive you cause Evan is yours," she says.

"No, you can't just force someone to forgive you. You have to earn it and that's what I've learnt throughout this whole thing," I tell her, looking into her eyes. "There would never have been any point in us trying to move forward if you were forcing yourself to get over what I did or if you forgave me but didn't really…feel it. Because then it wouldn't be real". After a brief pause I say, "All this time I just wanted the answer to why you didn't tell me about me being the Father but I understand, I'm not happy about it but I'll try and get past it. I mean, you've had to get past a lot of things and…it's only fair I do the same".

"That's very generous of you," says Iris but I shake my head. She was generous for having forgiven me in the first place. "I shouldn't have been so selfish," I comment.

"Let's forget about it all and…take care of our son," I say and she nods her head. I'm surprised when she moves forward and takes me in her arms, I hold her close getting lost in her scent. Peaches. She never uses any shampoo or anything that I know of that has peaches in it but she always has this same scent.


IRIS POV

I'm happy that Seth is trying to get past what I did but I still feel guilty about it. But he is right, we have to focus on our son. That's where our priority lies and that's what we both need to focus on. Seth's been doing it all since I was in a coma but now its time we both did our jobs.

"We still can't believe you're awake!" exclaims Nikki as I keep the phone on loudspeaker whilst I go around the living room cleaning things. I had to all but force Seth to go back to work part time at least whilst I recovered. He was so adamant on being around here all the time to help me with Evan. In the end I had to ask Roman who managed to convince Seth to go back to work. Even if it is part time.

"Seriously, when Ariana called out and told us, it was the greatest news ever!" says Natalya.

"But how are you feeling? I mean, you've been in a coma for such a long time," says Brie. I wondered what they'd do if I was actually in a room with them. I think I'd probably get mauled.

"Alright I guess," I answer the question. "Some people need a lot of help recovering but others don't, like me. I have had a few dizzy spells and it was difficult to walk around at first but its all better now. Seth has been so supportive and helpful," I go on to say, a smile automatically coming onto my face because as soon as I think about Seth I think about the kiss he gave me. I just can't seem to get it out of my head. He hasn't mentioned it and I'm not going to force it out of him but I would like to know what it meant. Why did he do it? I keep telling myself he was just happy to see me and got carried away but my heart won't believe that. It feels that there's something more.

"Yeah, what have you done to him? He barely was able to look after himself when he'd get sick and now suddenly he's Superman by taking care of you guys?" asks AJ and I can tell how it probably looks weird to other people.

"What can I tell you AJ? Seth is changed man, he doesn't shy away from responsibilities anymore," I tell her, continuing to clean the coffee table with a cloth.

"That's a good thing, it means you can depend on him now," comments Naomi which is true I guess. "I still can't believe you kept it quiet about him being the Father," she goes on to say. I had to tell them about Seth being the Father. I'm planning on taking Evan to work and seeing everyone again. Its only fair they all knew the truth that way when I go there with Seth they won't look at him with their mouths wide open.

"Well things were difficult I guess," I say, still disliking this particular topic. But I have to face the consequences of my actions. Seth did and now its my turn.

"Well we have to go but you take care of yourself," says Natalya.

"I will do, you guys better as well and I'll see you all real soon!" I say, a smile on my face at the thought of seeing them all again. Everyone has just been so friendly and they've not been questioning me about things I don't really want to answer or talk about.

"Bye!" they all say in unison before hanging up. I get up when I hear Evan crying and go over to the nursery, taking him in my arms. He's not much of a crier when compared to other babies but he does have a set of lungs. I wonder if me, Seth and Evan are ever going to be a proper family. I know we are a family now but I always imagined actually being with the Father of my baby if I ever had one. But I also don't want to be the one to bring it up to Seth. In that elevator I was this close to telling Seth I loved him but didn't get the chance. Now that I do have that chance, I'm scared to take it. Because it'll change everything. I bet he thinks I got over him ages ago and he'll be hit with it like a ton of bricks. I look down at Evan and that gives me my answer. Unless Seth ever brings it up, I won't mention it in fear of embarrassing myself or Seth. If he wanted to talk about it he would have brought it up by now.


"You ready?" asks Seth, popping his head into the nursery as I put the rest of Evan's stuff in a bag. It had been four weeks since I got out of a coma and Darren said it was ok for me to travel, he even checked me out and said I should be fine but if there any problems then we should call him.

"Yeah," I say to Seth and he comes cover taking the bags with Evan's stuff in it. We were going to where RAW was being taped this week and then staying in an apartment that we rented so we can invite our friends over for dinner to celebrate. It is a great opportunity to see everyone and a chance to show Evan off. From there me and Seth are going to travel to his hometown and staying with his parents for a couple of weeks since apparently his Mother has been badgering him to see Evan. It's safe to say I'm a little nervous, I've never met his parents. Seth would always avoid it when we were together and we did fight about it sometimes but eventually I realized he'll take me when he was ready. It's actually kind of funny how he's only taking me when he has to.

"The guys said they'll meet us at the airport," Seth tells me as I gather some remaining items.

"Great," I say and then look to see everything is ready. I watch Seth tie Evan up in the baby seat. "He all tied up?" I ask him and he nods his head with a smile. He then starts taking the bags downstairs to the cab that's waiting for us. I bring Evan down and we get him inside.

"I can't wait to show him off," says Seth and then looks up at me. I smile at him and I know he's probably nervous about everyone knowing he's the Father but I told the girls and Ariana's taking care of the rest. I told her to let everyone know because we have nothing to hide and it'll make things less awkward for Seth. Once at the airport we meet everyone else and get onto the flight. After arriving we go to the apartment and from there everyone goes to work, I tell them I'll bring Evan later on when I know they're less busy.

"Oh my gosh, Iris!" I hear Nikki squeal and am immediately enveloped in a great big hug by her.

"No way!" I then hear and the next thing I know Brie is on top of me too. "How are you?" she asks.

"We are both alright," I say and it's just then that they notice the stroller.

"Evan!" they exclaim together and bend down to get a look at him as I just laugh.

"He's so much more cuter than in the pictures," comments Nikki.

"Totally," agrees Brie. We chat a bit and then they take me to the Divas locker room. I'm instantly jumped on by most of them and then they all start cooing over Evan.

"Aw look, he likes me," comments Nikki as she holds Evan in her arms and is sat down. He's eating her nose because it's so close to his mouth.

"So are you coming back to work?" asks Natalya, something which I hadn't thought about before.

"Um, I dunno," I tell her. "To be honest, everything has just been like a rollercoaster and I haven't had the time to think about what I'm going to do next," she then says.

"She doesn't need to work, she has Seth to rely on for money right," comments Summer from the other side of the room. "She can just sponge off of him," she the then says.

"Says the girl who whined and got her boyfriend to gift her a 24 carat diamond necklace, looks like someone else is doing the leeching," comments Paige, not having really been a part of our conversation till now.

"How did you…" Summer trails off.

"Know?" finishes Paige. "Even the walls have ears Summer, maybe you shouldn't brag about it too much. Your head will pop like a wart," she says which makes everyone burst out in laughter. Summer leaves in frustration.

"That was a good one," comments Naomi.

"Well she shouldn't act like such a cow," says Paige.

"And she has been getting on Paige's nerves for the past few weeks, especially since she hit her 'Accidentally on Purpose' during RAW 2 weeks ago," explains AJ. "If she tries doing the same to me then I swear I'll bring out a kendo stick!" she says with conviction, making everyone chuckle.

"How did you really know about that?" asks Brie in curiosity.

"She left her phone lying around and I went through her messages," says Paige as I gasp. "What? It was there so why not," she says, shrugging her shoulders.

"You need a little bit of self control Paige, that's not very nice," I then reprimand her.

"Sorry Mom (!)" mutters Paige.

"Come on Iris, loosen up," says Naomi. "Summer totally deserved it, she thinks she's better than all of us," she then says.

"Still," I say.

"She basically called you a gold digger," Nikki then says. "Who gave her that right?" she questions with a scoff, disliking what was said about me.

"But she's right though isn't she?" I ask them all. "Right now, I am living off of Seth. He's paying for everything," I then say, shaking my head. I should be paying for some of the stuff too but I'm not.

"Its your right though, you did just give birth to his kid," says Natalya. "He does have a duty to take care of you both till you get back onto your feet and don't you let her tell you otherwise," she explains, pointing a finger in my direction.

"I guess," I say, shrugging my shoulders.

"We have a Divas battle royal so we better get going," says AJ, getting up and leaving.

"Nice to have you back Iris," says Paige as she follows AJ. I smile at them and walk out with the rest of the girls. They say they'll see me soon and I walk down the hallway but end up bumping into Stephanie.

"Iris!" exclaims Stephanie and hugs me. "How are you?" she asks me.

"Alright I guess," I tell her.

"Aw, he's beautiful," says Stephanie, bending down and getting a good look at Evan. "Evan right?" she asks me and I nod my head with a big smile. "Suits him," she comments.

"Ooh, I think he's hungry," I say, seeing him smacking his lips together.

"I have to get going but just use my office if you need to," says Stephanie and I nod my head thanking her. I make my way to her office and take a seat. I frown when I realize there's no more milk left in his bottle, he's been so hungry today I should have seen it coming. But I guess luck was on my side since Stephanie allowed me to use her office. I pick up Evan and take down my top, I'm always making sure to wear shirts with a stretchy material so they're easy to just pull down. Just as Evan is about done the door opens and in walks Randy Orton.

"Ah!" I scream and get up and turn around. I push back up my shoulder quickly.

"What are you doing in here?" questions Randy as I turn back around with my face all red.

"Stephanie said I could use her office to feed Evan," I explain and then ask, "What are you doing in here?" I hadn't seen Randy much after I told him he wasn't the Father. But I still can't believe he was helping Kane the night when the Shield finally got him for everything he did. Kane was still with the company but lets just say his role is more pivotal now.

"I needed to talk to Stephanie but apparently a great surprise waited for me," says Randy as I roll my eyes and keep a good hold onto Evan.

"I don't know what you're up to Randy but I thought after Ariana made it clear that you were an ass you'd stopped acting like one," I comment, disliking the way he was looking at me.

"Ariana is a hot piece of ass," states Randy. "But you're nothing less," he says, throwing a wink my way. Is he…is he hitting on me? Eugh, I bet he's just doing it to get under my skin but I can't let that happen.

"But just like her I'd rather you'd leave," I say, putting Evan on my shoulder as I bounce him up and down whilst gently patting his back to try and get him to burp.

"No, I think I'll wait here for Stephanie to get back," says Randy, taking a seat opposite me. Evan lets out a burp and I put him into the stroller. There is no way I'm staying alone with Randy Orton out of all people.

"And I'll leave," I then say, pushing the stroller towards the door.

"Whoa, wait a second," says Randy, getting up and putting an arm out in front of me.

"Get out of my way," I say, looking at him but he just gives me a scary look. If he thinks that'll scare me then he's wrong. I've received death glares from Ariana that are much more terrifying.

"Why? Scared that you'll give in?" questions Randy as I roll my eyes at what he says.

"Let me go," I state, not ready to mess around. He gives me a smug smile, enjoying this.

"She said to let her go," I look up and see Seth standing at the door, not looking too happy.

"What? I was just wanting to get to know little Evan here and see Iris again, she's been gone for so long," says Randy and Seth walks up to us, pushing me behind him and grabbing a hold of the stroller.

"But they don't want to talk to you so stay away from my family," Seth warns him before putting his hand on my back and getting me to walk ahead. I do so instantly and he pushes Evan out and we leave, I sigh as I do. He had the same look in his eye as Kane and that makes me feel very uneasy. "What happened?" Seth instantly questions me, glaring in the direction of the office.

"Um," I start, thinking its not a good idea to tell Seth about Randy walking in on me when I was feeding Evan. "Stephanie said to go to her office, I thought Evan might be hungry. Randy came in and then he wouldn't let me leave," I explains quickly.

"That's it?" asks Seth and I nod my head. He looks suspicious so I decide to change the topic.

"Come on, lets show off Evan some more!" I exclaim and move the stroller along sighing when I realize Seth is following us. I can't let Seth know anything more. This is supposed to be a happy time for us. I refuse to allow anything to ruin it.
