After they had set up the nursery at her parents place. They went over to Roman's parents house to set up one there. His sisters each had a free crib from when his niece and nephew were babies. They gave it to them for twenty dollars. They hadn't asked for money, but Roman couldn't just take them.
Diana was sitting in the middle of the floor watching him set up the crib. Dean walked in with two sodas and a water for Diana.
"Thank you", she said.
He nodded.
"So, am I going to be like uncle Dean or something?", Dean asked.
Diana smiled at him.
"Of course", she said.
Roman winked at her.
"Okay, all done", Roman said.
"Looks great", she said.
Dean nodded.
"Well, I have to get to work. Don't you crazy kids do anything I wouldn't do", Dean said, winking.
"Like what, get pregnant at a young age? Please", Diana joked.
They laughed. Dean kissed her cheek before walking out. Diana held her hands up so Roman could help her stand. He took her hands and helped her up carefully.
"Are we going to paint the nurseries?", he asked.
"I don't know. I kinda want to wait till baby is a little older to decide", she said.
He nodded.
"Hopefully by then, I'll have my own place and not relying on my parents. I love them for helping us, but its time I take care of my family", he said.
"Well, I have money saved up from working at the diner", she said.
"Diana, I am not taking your money", he said.
"I was just throwing it out there, if you need help", Diana said.
He kissed the top of her head.
"I need help alright, just not with money", he said.
She caught on.
"Are your parents home?", she asked.
He shook his head no. He leaned down and kissed her.
It was their baby shower/gender reveal. They had already picked names. They had gotten a lot of great gifts, a lot of things they still needed. Victor brought out the cake and set it in front of the soon to be parents.
"Alright, did everyone vote?", Patricia asked.
"Yes", everyone called out.
She looked at her son and Diana.
"Go ahead", she said.
Roman placed his hand over Diana's and they cut the cake together. Pulling out the piece, it was blue in the middle.
"It's a boy. I get my boy", Roman said excitedly.
Diana loved how happy he was about this. Everyone congratulated them.
"So, we know you two picked names. Do we get to know?", her dad asked.
"Yes. His name will be, Roman if you can please do the honors", Diana said.
Roman looked at his mom and dad.
"Noah Matthew Reigns", he said.
His mom went over to him and hugged him, then hugging Diana.
"Thank you", she said.
"No need. As soon as Roman mentioned it, Noah kicked and that was it", Diana said.
Roman nodded and rubbed her bump. After everyone left, she and Roman walked to the park. She sat on the swing and he pushed her gently.
"Are you nervous?", he asked.
"A little bit", she admitted.
"Me too. What if I'm not a good dad? I don't want to let you and Noah down", he said.
"You've done a great job so far", she said.
He smiled.
"Did you have fun today?", he asked.
She nodded.
"We got a lot of things we still needed", she said.
"What about school? When the baby comes, I mean", Roman said.
"Summer school. I talked to my counselor and she agrees summer school would be the best option. That way I don't have to take them during my senior year, hopefully", she said.
"Good", he said.
"You think you can watch Noah while I'm at school?", she asked.
"I don't see why not, well, when I'm not working", he said.
She nodded.
"Oh, and AJ offered me a part time job at the diner, you know when I'm ready to come back", she said.
"That's great", he said.
"How's school?", she asked.
"A bit hard, long nights, but I get it done. Professor Cole helps me out a lot", he said.
"That's great. You are going to be one of the best architects out there, I know it", she said.
He loved how much she believed in him.
"Can I ask you something?", she asked.
"Sure", he said.
"Do you plan to date once the baby comes?", she asked.
"What do you mean?", he asked.
"Like, do you plan to have a girlfriend some time in the future", she said.
"No. Like I said, I am too busy with you, Noah, and school, work. No time", he said.
"What about after school is done? You'll have more free time", she said.
"No, D.", he said.
She was a little relieved at that. They were having sex and if he planned to date, she wanted to end that.
"What about you?", he asked softly.
"No way. I want all of my time and focus to be on Noah.", she said.
He was relieved too. He didn't want anyone else to touch what was his, even if she didn't know it.
"I invited Seth's mom to the party", she suddenly said.
He stopped the swing.
"I just, I feel bad that she doesn't know this is her grandson. I thought inviting her would make me feel better about keeping it from them, you know", she said softly.
"I didn't see her", he replied.
"I didn't either. Maybe she felt it would be too weird", Diana said.
"Maybe", he said.
He stepped in her line of sight, holding his hand out to her.
"We should get you home", he said.
She nodded and stood. She held his arm as they walked back to her house. Once they got there, she kissed his cheek.
"You still coming over tomorrow for my brother's last day with us?", she asked.
He nodded. Victor and Brie were going on some Humanitarian trip. Their parents were worried, but understood their need to do this.
"Yes, I will see you tomorrow", he said.
She nodded. He waited till she got inside before leaving.
The next day they had all gathered to say goodbye to Brie and Victor. They would be gone for a full year or longer. Her brother was going to miss the birth of his nephew, which he did feel bad about.
"Tell Roman to video chat me in when Noah is here. I still want to see what the little guy is going to look like", her brother said.
Diana nodded. Victor went over to Roman.
"Take care of my sister and nephew, I'm counting on you man", Victor said.
"You know I will", Roman said.
They waved to Brie and Roman as the car drove away. Diana's dad was driving them to the airport. Roman sat with Diana on the couch. He rubbed her bump and feeling Noah kick. She laughed softly.
"Valentine's Day is his due date. Anything you want to do before that?", he asked.
"If I'm really exhausted now, I don't think I will be up for anything then", she said.
"You sure? If we aren't doing anything, I want to put in overtime on weekends before his date", Roman said.
Diana nodded.
"Maybe just dinner", she said.
"We could do that", he said.
Seth was working on his second album. His mom had tried to tell him about Diana, but he would shut her down. He didn't want to hear about his ex and their baby. Honestly, he couldn't believe she actually kept it.
"Hey, Ziggler wants to know if you are about done with those songs he told you about?", Drew asked.
"Just need to finish this last one", Seth said.
Drew nodded.
"Don't forget, tomorrow you have to meet Justin Bieber for that collab on his song", Drew said.
"Do I really need to work with him?", Seth asked.
"Yes. Dolph said this will get his fans on board with you and this new album will do way better than your last. We always need to do better than your last. Besides, he's a big fan of yours. This will work well for your career", Drew said.
Seth nodded.
"Need anything?", Drew asked.
"No, I'm good", Seth said.
Drew nodded before leaving. Once he was gone, Seth went over to his bag and pulled out the small box that held his drug of choice. He set some down in a line and snorted it. After a few months, he went to a party and met some people who swore it helped them relax and concentrate.
He wasn't going to lie, they were right.
It has been two weeks since her brother and Brie had left. She missed them around the house. Her parents were going to visit her dad's sister for her birthday. She lived a few hours away. They figured since Roman spent so much time with Diana, that she would be okay staying home till he got off work.
"If you need anything, call me", her mom said.
Diana nodded.
"Roman will be here soon. He knows you guys are leaving, so he won't leave me alone", Diana said.
Her mom cupped her face and nodded.
"Okay", her mom said.
She waved to them as they drove away. Yes it was true, Roman knew her parents were going out of town, but he didn't know they were leaving now. His boss had given him a day off since he had been working nonstop. She told him to stay home and sleep it off.
He agreed. As long as she promised that if she needed him, she would call. She agreed to it. She felt a pain on her lower back and took a deep breath. She sat down to relax. She had been feeling them on and off since early morning.
"Maybe mommy needs a nap too huh", she said, rubbing her bump.
She laid down on the couch, but couldn't seem to find her spot. Again she kept feeling the pain, stronger now. She couldn't take it anymore. She stood and locked up her house. Walking to Roman's while she tried to call him. He didn't answer.
Half way to his house, she stopped. Feeling wet between her legs. She looked down.
"Shit", she sighed.
She just need to turn onto his block. She kept having to stop. His truck wasn't in the driveway and she hoped he just let one of his sisters borrow his car. Getting to his porch.
"Roman", she yelled.
She pounded on his front door.
"Roman, please", she cried.
What if no one was home? She would have to give birth to her son right here. No way could she make it to a neighbors house now and what if they weren't home either. She barely made it here.
"Roman", she screamed, pounding on the door.
She took a deep breath.
"Help me", she yelled.
Her hand reached for the doorbell, pushing it repeatedly.
"Please", she begged.
