Chapter 23
Mercedes called Paul later that evening and the two talked for a good while. It had been a while since they had, had a heart-to-heart/serious chat. She told him everything she had told Colby earlier that evening: everything about getting back in the ring and everything about an update interview with Michael Cole. Paul was happy to do it all.
A few weeks later, Colby was headed back on the road. He had taken the last few months off to be home with Mercedes and Evelyn. Now it was time for him to get back to work. But Mercedes was going with him. That was when they were going to do the interview with Michael Cole.
"I'm going to miss Evie so much," Mercedes said as she and Colby were on their plane.
"I know," Colby said. "My parents will take great care of her, though."
"That I know. I will just miss her. I haven't been away from her longer than a few hours."
"Same here. But you're the one that wanted to do the interview."
"Very true. But I am going to have to leave Evie eventually. Not forever. But if I want to go on trips with her daddy or whatever, I'll have to leave her behind. The struggle is real."
"Yes, I'm feeling that too. Daddy leaving his baby girl behind."
Mercedes smiled. "We can miss her together, baby."
"Yes, but I have you next to me which is just as great," Colby said.
Mercedes leaned forward and kissed him. "I love you so much," She said.
"I love you too, beautiful."
When they arrived at the arena for the event that night with the Raw roster, everyone was happy to see them. Mercedes was happy to see everyone as well. When she entered the women's locker room, they all went crazy. Mercedes was happy to hug all of them. But of course, Pam and Ashley got the bear hugs. However, Mercedes went to Stephanie McMahon's office, because it was asked that she did. Mercedes wondered if it was about the interview with Michael Cole that she wished to do. But it was something different.
"Come in," Stephanie shouted as Mercedes knocked on the door.
Mercedes opened the door and walked in.
"Mercedes!" Squealed Aurora, Murphy, and Vaughn Levesque.
"Oh, my Gosh," Mercedes said. "Hi!"
The three all quickly went over to her. Mercedes smiled as she hugged each of them.
"It's great to see all three of you," She said.
"Mom and Dad let us come with them for the weekend so we could see you," Aurora said.
Mercedes smiled looking over toward both Stephanie and Paul. "That's so sweet of them. Thank you. And thank you for wanting to see me, girls."
"Every time we are here," Murphy said.
Mercedes smiled. She hugged all of them again. She then turned her attention to Stephanie and Paul.
"Hi," She said.
"Hello," Stephanie said, hugging her.
"Hello sweetheart," Paul said, hugging her after his wife. "You look great."
"Thank you," Mercedes said. "I feel great! I am so happy to be here!"
"Where's Colby?" Stephanie asked.
"In catering catching up with everyone, bragging about our daughter and showing pictures of her," Mercedes smiled.
"Yep," Paul smiled. "I know the feeling. And got all my girls right here." He kneeled down, holding his arms open. All three of his daughters went into his arms, group hugging him.
Mercedes smiled and looked at Stephanie. Stephanie smiled back. "How are you doing since leaving Evelyn?" Stephanie asked.
"Missing her a lot!" Mercedes replied with a smile. "But she is in good hands and I wanted to come. Sasha Banks has stuff to do."
"We wanted to talk to you about some of that?" Stephanie said.
"Yes," Paul said, standing up.
"What about it?" Mercedes asked with a smile still.
"The interview is still scheduled!"
"Yes," Stephanie said. "We just wonder if you want to make an appearance on Raw."
"Yes!" Mercedes exclaimed.
"We were thinking of having one of the other girls or a few coming out to cause some controversy, but we wanted to run it by you first.
"I'm listening."
"How about you go to the ring and just talk about being away because of being pregnant and maybe a little bit about your assault."
"Yes," Mercedes replied. "I'm okay with that."
"We then thought of one or two of the other girls coming out and messing with you, talking smack about it, getting very personal about all of it. You then lash out at them, doing your thing with an attack, and giving the Banks Statement. Then you get on the mike again and say something about telling the girl to watch her back because when you come back she might be the first one you go after."
"I'm cool with that."
"We were also thinking we might have you be in the ring and have a superstar come out saying something, but then Colby come out, pissed," Paul said.
Mercedes shrugged. "I like both ideas. How personal were we thinking in all honesty?"
"Maybe talk about Evelyn."
"I like the idea with Colby coming out more."
Paul nodded his head.
"But I would also love to have one of the girls come up to me and I would love to slap her for saying something offensive," Mercedes said with a grin.
"I'd love that one," Stephanie said.
"Yes, let Mercedes slap one of the girls," Vaugh suggested.
"Yes, those are always great," Aurora agreed.
Mercedes, Stephanie and Paul laughed.
"Well, we'll work everything out.," Stephanie said.
"Great," Mercedes smiled.
"Mom, can we hang out with Mercedes for a bit?" Aurora asked.
"Yeah, yeah!" Vaughn said.
"Can we, please?!" Murphy added.
"I'll make sure they're okay," Mercedes said.
Stephanie and Paul smiled.
"Sure," Stephanie said.
"Yay!" The three girls all shouted.
"But stay with Mercedes," Paul said.
"I'll make sure of it," Mercedes said. "A little practice for when Evelyn gets a sibling."
"Oh, thinking of more kids?"
"Yes," Mercedes smiled. "Let's give me some years here and then maybe two more babies. Definitely one more."
"Have you always wanted kids?" Stephanie asked. "Sorry if I'm getting too personal."
"It's okay. And yes. But you know it really wasn't planned with Evelyn. Obviously, with how she was conceived."
"Yes."
"But yes, I have wanted kids. Hearing Evelyn's heartbeat for the first time and seeing her as a little tiny thing made me instantly want to keep her," Mercedes said. "And now she's here and I know how my mother felt when I was born. And taking care of me as a baby. It's amazing when you hold this little life in your arms."
"It is," Stephanie said. "I loved holding all my girls for the first time." She looked at her daughters.
"I loved it when I met Murphy and Vaughn for the first time," Aurora said. "I love my little sisters!" She wrapped her arms around both of them hugging them.
"We love you too, Aurora!" Murphy said.
"Yep," Vaughn said.
"All right, girls, let's go have some fun," Mercedes said. "You can tell me how school is going."
"Okay," Vaughn said.
The girls led the way out of Stephanie's office.
Mercedes enjoyed the time with Aurora, Murphy and Vaughn. And they enjoyed it too.
"It was great seeing everyone today," Colby said when he and Mercedes were in their hotel room later that night.
Mercedes was in the bathroom. The door slightly a jar.
"It was," She shouted back. She opened the door to the bathroom, walking out in a sexy revealing spaghetti strap nightgown.
Colby smirked when he saw her.
Mercedes smirked herself. She walked over to the bed. She climbed on top of it, moving toward her fiancée. "But let's forget about everyone else and focus on us."
"What did you have in mind?" Colby asked.
Mercedes smiled. She climbed on top of him, straddling his body. Colby moved forward as he had been lying back on the bed. Mercedes kissed him passionately. Colby happily kissed back.
Their kissing started off slow, but soon they both grew hungrily for each other. Colby moved Mercedes onto her back. He quickly grabbed onto his T-shirt pulling it off. He then moved so he could take off his sweats. He then quickly grabbed onto her nightgown revealing her naked body to him.
"You're so fucking beautiful," He said. He was then quickly kissing her. Mercedes moaned against his lips.
Colby's hand went between her legs. He slipped two fingers inside her, making her moan. He slightly pulled his lips. "You wet for me already, baby?" He asked with smirked.
"Always," Mercedes replied.
Colby smirked. He kissed her again. His hands were on her legs. Mercedes spread them open. Colby grabbed onto his manhood and slipped inside his fiancée. They both moaned. Colby slowly began moving.
Colby moved his mouth to her neck. Mercedes moaned with every movement of him inside her.
"Faster, please, baby," She begged.
Colby happily obliged. He moved faster and harder.
"Yes, just like that," She moaned.
Colby chuckled. "I know exactly what you like, baby."
Mercedes chuckled herself.
Colby moved a little harder and faster. Mercedes wrapped her arms and legs around him, getting him as tight to her body as she could.
Minutes later…
"I honestly wasn't expecting that," Colby said as he tried catching his breathe.
Mercedes grinned. "I'm always full of surprises," She replied.
"But I'm glad you did," He said. He turned to her, kissing her. He then slightly pulled away from her lips. "I love you," He said.
"I love you too," Mercedes replied, kissing him. "Are you excited for wrestling at the event tonight?"
"Very. I can't wait to get in the ring with Mr. Samoa Joe again," Colby replied.
"And I can't wait to watch backstage. I loved going to Black and Brave with you and seeing you in the ring with the kids. I actually love watching you in the ring no matter what."
"That I know. I know I love watching you in the ring. And it'll be fun to do a little thing on Monday."
"Oh, yes. And I get to slap Jessie (Billie Kay). She is looking forward to it too."
Colby chuckled. "Come on, let's get some sleep."
"Sounds good to me," Mercedes replied.
Colby smiled. He moved toward the light on his side of the bed. He turned it off and moved back toward his fiancée. He gave her a kiss and moved, wanting to wrap his arms around her. Mercedes moved around so he could. The two both got situated.
"Good night, baby," He said.
"Good night, my love," Mercedes replied.
Colby kissed her cheek.
The two then both closed their eyes and went to sleep.
