"We need to talk." Aimee said as her and Jeff walked through the steel doors where Catie was waiting.
"You got this." Jeff grinned as he patted Aimee's back just before he walked away from the girls.
Catie arched her brow watching the multi-color haired man walk away. She turned her glance back to her friend smiling slightly.
"Cate, I… umm….", She stuttered as the tears threatened to fall.
"Ames, what's wrong sweetie?" Catie asked bringing her friend in for a reassuring embrace.
"It's Windham. You were right… everyone was right about him." She said as the emotions came pouring out.
"I didn't want to be, Ames." Catie hugged her a little tighter.
The two stood there for a few minutes not uttering a word. Catie just held her best friend and let her cry the tears she needed to cry. Aimee thought this part was over but if anyone could make her let go of all the emotions she was burying inside, it would be Catie.
"JoJo is having a baby and…" Aimee paused, pulling back from her friend and sitting in a nearby chair, "and it's his."
Catie's jaw dropped as the words ran through her head. She thought nothing Windham could have done would've shocked her but here he proved her wrong. She never seen this coming.
"I ended it. I felt as if he threw me out with the trash. I am so hurt and so betrayed." She exhaled wiping the tears from her eyes.
"I feel so broken but I know I will rise and I'll put the pieces back together. I will rise so high that I will make him a fool for ever making me second best."
Catie sat down beside her and wrapped her arm around her neck laying her head against her friend. She hated to see Aimee go through this and all she wanted to do was find Windham and give him a thing or two but she knew Aimee didn't need that added drama. Catie was exactly where she needed to be.
"And I will be there every step of the way. I got you, Ames."
The girls continued to sit and talk about everything that had transpired the past few days and Catie managed to get Aimee to laugh a time or two while she was ranting about Allen and his gaming. They both looked up when they heard a husky voice clear his throat.
"Hey John." Aimee smiled sweetly. "Well I better go find Paul and Steph. I'll find you later, Cate."
"Nice seeing you kiddo." John nodded as she walked down the hall.
"Is she ok?" He asked bringing his attention back towards his sister.
"No." Catie shook her head watching her friend fade in the distance, "No she's not. John I want to hurt Windham so bad right now."
John raised his eyebrows as his sister told him everything from the affair to the baby. He couldn't imagine anyone wanting to hurt Aimee like that. She was like a sister to him and just the thought of her in that much pain angered him.
"Don't worry about him sis, let big brother take care of that In the ring." He said kissing her forehead.
"Show him that Cena beating he has owed to him." She smiled slyly before they parted ways.
Aimee had gave Stephanie the news and requested time off for a few weeks once she got back home. Paul and Stephanie told her to take all the time she needed and even though Aimee knew they frowned upon what happened that they still run a business and Windham's career wouldn't be affected.
She watched the show from Allan's locker room with Catie and they still enjoyed every moment despite the situation. They cheered so loud during Allen's match against the Phenom that some of the crew had to tell them to quiet down.
"Sounds like you beautiful ladies are enjoying the show." A voice came from the doorway startling the girls.
"Hey Jeff." Aimee smiled.
"It's good to see that smile back on that exquisite face." He winked.
"You seem to do that quite often to her." Catie giggled nudging Aimee's side. "It must be that Southern Charm."
"Must be." Jeff chuckled, "Aimee has that same effect on me as well."
"Well if you are done for the night, why don't you join us." Catie said scooting to the side of the couch more.
"Man I wish I could but I actually have an interview I was headed too." He frowned, "Maybe I can catch y'all after the show."
"Yea, of course." Aimee grinned, "We would like that."
"It's a date then." He smirked just as he grabbed her hand and kissed it softly before he headed out the door.
"See Ames, you are going to have guys lined up now. Windham is going to realize real quick at what a mistake he made for ever letting you go." Catie smiled.
"I know but right now I just want to get through tonight and get back home to my kids. Maybe eventually I'll venture out in the world. Jeff is a great guy and he would be an option but could you please try not to be match maker tonight. I just need my friends and Jeff is one of those right now." Aimee sighed hoping Catie would understand.
"Yeah, I'll stop and hey who knows what a friendship could spark. Look at me and Allen." She winked.
