Author's note: Hello, it's me Rhyno's girl. (Like it would be anybody else?) This is a continuation of my story "Inside us all". Nik gave me the idea, and I just finally got a good enough idea in my head to actually write it. If you didn't read "Inside us all" it's no biggie, it's not really all that connected, just using the same names and whatnot. Thanks!! ~R.G.~
I heard a familiar wail come from the monitor beside the bed. I put the pillow back over my head and tried to go back to sleep.
" Terry, your son is hungry." Gwen said beside me. Damn it, it was my turn. I rolled over and out of our warm bed. I put my feet down on the cold hardwood floor and shivered. I made a mental note to get some carpet before Will started to walk. I'd hate to see the bruises he'd get on this hardwood.
I went to the nursery and picked him up out of his crib. I changed his diaper and then we walked out to the kitchen. I went to the fridge, got one of his bottles out and put it in the pan of water on the stove and turned it on low. I sat down at the table with my son in my arms, wide-awake, little brown eyes staring up at me.
" Poor kid, you look just like me." I said smiling. I kissed his forehead and he playfully grabbed my nose. " Five months old and already a trouble maker. Go figure." I said laughing. I checked his bottle and turned the water off. I sat back down and began to feed him. As he sucked on his bottle I sat there and thought about everything that has happened to me lately. It's been amazing. First Gwen and my wedding, then the birth of our son, and the day after we get back on the road, taking Will with us wherever we go, knowing that everyone loves him to death, I find out that I'm going to be King of the Ring. I felt bad that it had to be over three of my good friends Jay, Adam and Kurt, but they understood. Will was soon fast asleep and I went to put him back in his crib then go back to bed.
I got settled back down into the sheets and Gwen put her arms around me and I fell back asleep quickly.
I awoke the next morning to a baby on my chest, bouncing up and down on all fours.
" Good morning to you too Will." I said smiling at my son who giggled. "Where's mommy at?" I asked him, laughing along with him. I must say he is the happiest baby I had ever seen. He probably knew how many people absolutely adored him. I saw Gwen come out of the bathroom and smile at us.
" Good morning men." She said happily. Tonight was the King of the Ring pay per view and we were all pretty excited.
" Good morning." I said as she came over and kissed Will and I.
" You ready for tonight?" she asked.
" A bit nervous, but I'm ready." I said. Gwen took Will of my chest and he pouted.
" No Will, if you beat daddy you won't be King of the Ring." She said smiling. I laughed and got up, getting ready to get in the shower.
" You want me to just take him with me in the shower?" I asked, knowing that she probably hadn't given him his bath yet.
" If you want." She said. I took him back and he started bouncing up and down in my arms. He was a total daddy's boy.
" He wants to, so I guess I will." I said laughing. Gwen kissed me and smiled.
" Next time I get a girl." She said laughing and I smiled, walking into the bathroom. We wanted another baby, but we didn't know when we would be able to have it. She was busy with her newfound Diva hood plus taking Will on photo shoots and everything, so that kept her pretty busy. But all the girls backstage just loved little Will. Amy even started asking Matt when they could have a baby; Matt said he wanted to kick my ass. Jay's wife Denise was pregnant and Adam and Alanah were trying also. Vince called it the big baby boom. Vince and Linda were just like Grandparents to him, since Shane and Steph didn't have any children of their own yet.
Before I knew it we had to be at the arena and ready for the first match against Adam. He knocked on the dressing room door and came in. Will rolled over on the floor to look up and see Adam as he picked him up.
" Hello young William." He said in a mock English accent. " Danger Will Gerin, Danger." He said mocking Lost in Space.
" Let's hope he doesn't pick up your sense of humor Adam." Gwen said, giggling.
" So you ready for me to kick your ass?" I asked Adam.
" As I'll ever be." He said, flashing his famous grin.
" Your too funny Adam." Gwen said.
" Good, I'm paid to be funny." He said laughing.
" So are you and Jay headed for splits Ville after this, or is it gonna be okay?" Gwen asked.
" Splits Ville unfortunately. Jay's turning heel."
" Jay's a good heel, he gets to big of kick out of being called an asshole by half a million people to be a babyface." I said laughing, remembering the first time he got the 'asshole' chant, he was so happy.
" Yeah, I guess you've got a good point there." Adam said smiling. He looked at the monitor in our room.
" Our match is next Terry, we better get going." Adam said.
" Okay. We've got to drop Will off in Matt and Amy's dressing room. They're watching him for us." I said. Gwen grabbed his diaper bag and we headed to their dressing room. Once we got him all settled in with Matt and Amy we headed to the Gorilla position (spot just behind the curtain) and waited for the prior match to be over. We heard the bell ring and saw Scott (Raven) and Paul (Big Show) come back behind the curtain and wish us luck. Adam's music came on first and he walked out, not being accompanied by Jay, seeing as how Edge and Christian fought backstage earlier.
Our music hit and Gwen and I headed towards the ring, just like any other match. I got in the ring and soon Adam and I locked up. The match was going well, the fans were responding well and whatnot when Adam went for a DDT. After that I was supposed to get up and clothesline him, but after he hit the DDT I just lay there on the mat, staring up at the lights. I heard Gwen yelling and pounding on the matt, and I saw Adam go over and start pushing the ref around, just like we had talked about. I went to get up, but I couldn't move my arms or legs. I looked over at Gwen and she got up into the ring. She knew that I was hurt as soon as I didn't get back up.
" Terry, what happened?" she asked softly.
" I can't feel my arms or legs." I said, as everything began to fade to black.
I heard a familiar wail come from the monitor beside the bed. I put the pillow back over my head and tried to go back to sleep.
