Disclaimer: Still remains the same. I do not own any of the actual WWE
superstars in this story, but I'm still planning on it. I do own Hayley
Peterson - Gowen and I do own Ariel the best friend. Other then that, it's
all up for grabs folks.
A/N: Now I stated on my other account why I haven't been updating like usual but for those of you that don't tend to cross over to that one I will state it here. I know a lot of you that read these stories are also fellow writers and you will understand it. I have what we call shitty writing block. LOL What I mean by that of course is that I can write well but what looks good at the time turns out to be shit and it stops me from posting it. So basically what I am saying is that I am sorry that I haven't been my normal machine self but that's the reason and after writing my John/Trish fiction this morning I am attempting to write this one tonight. Wish me luck and hell review and tell me how much it did or did not suck!

"What kind of dress were you looking for Ariel?" Hayley asked, as they sat on her couch flipping through the mountain of wedding magazines that she had bought on her way home from the doctor's office.
"Something white." Ariel stated her mind completely somewhere else. Hayley wanted to help her with the wedding but if her friend was going to space out when she needed to voice her input the most, she was going to give up and call it a night.
"Ariel there is more to a dress then just having it be white!"
"Well you choose you were always better at all that girly stuff anyway."
"Do you want me to marry Randy too? I mean I could do that and then you could come in and do the role of wife for me. Seem fair enough for you?"
"You want to be with Randy?"
Hayley laughed and buried her face back in the magazine she was flipping through. Leave it to Ariel to listen to the part about marrying Randy for her and not the whole speech about the dress. It was obvious that something was on her mind; Hayley just wished she would come out with it so they could get some work done.
"I don't want to be with Randy but at least I got your attention. What's eating you girl?"
"Nothing. Well nothing serious anyway."
"Why don't you just tell me and then let me decide how serious or not serious it is."
"I took a test this morning Hay, and as glad as I am about it, I don't think Randy is going to be too pleased."
"What kind of test are we talking about here Ariel? Like a written or a pregnancy?"
Ariel laughed and smacked Hayley over the head with her magazine. She had to admit that bringing this out in the open and getting her best friend's perspective was actually a load off. She knew she was leaving Hayley in a spot about all the wedding preparations but she couldn't get the test results off her mind.
"That would be the latter Professor Gowen."
"You're kidding me right?"
"I wish I was. I felt sick a couple of weeks ago, but I blew it off because of all the shit that has been going down with your family and your sick father. It got to me today when I was shopping so I picked up a test."
"And?"
"And what? What do you think happened? You've been there Hayley so don't even think of playing stupid."
"You're pregnant and now you are scared out of your mind to tell Randy because he's on a roll with his career and you would never think of asking him to quit because of you or a baby. Is that close enough?"
"You know I hate when you use that weird shit on me, but yes in a nutshell that is exactly what I am talking about here. It's not rocket science or anything. I love Randy and I know he loves me, but a baby at this stage could make things a lot more complicated then they need to be."
"Remember when I was pregnant with Carioca? I was raped by Brock, I slept with Brian and Zach and I weren't together but I still made love to him. I had a huge decision with that one. I know what you're going through because all the words and feelings that you feel and think are all ones that I have had myself at some point."
"How did you deal with it?"
"Well it was easy to get tested to see the paternity of the baby and all of that. The medical world has come a long way in determining before the baby's birth. In terms of telling Zach that hey you're going to be a dad, well that was really hard for me. I knew that I loved him with everything in me, and that I wanted to be with him, but I didn't know what he felt anymore and I didn't want to ruin his career."
"Then what made you tell him?"
"Can you imagine growing up not knowing that you have a dad out there, one that is possibly the best man to know in the entire world and then when you do find out, you're 26 and on your second divorce? I guess what I am trying to say is that you never know, but you never want to have your child resent you for keeping something like that a secret."
"Can I ask you something serious Hayley?"
"Yeah of course, I mean all of this is a big huge joke so I guess I can handle something semi serious."
Ariel laughed when she saw the smile develop on Hayley's face and almost forgot what she was going to ask.
"If it had been Brock's baby, what would you have done?"
"The same thing I did now. I would have told Zach I loved him, I wanted to marry him and that I was pregnant and it was Brock's. Ariel I was raped, that's hard all in itself but at the same time, a baby didn't ask to be grown inside of me. It had no choice. I'm strange because even though it could have been Brock's baby I still would have kept it."
"Even though you know now that he was your brother?"
"I didn't know he was my brother until very recently so I don't know what I would have done. I don't think a situation like that would have been healthy but then who's to say what would have happened. I can't go back and decide that now."
"So you think I need to suck up all of this issue and tell Randy the truth?"
"No. What I think you need to do first is go to your OBGYN and talk to her about getting a real test done to see if you really are pregnant, those things can be wrong ya know."
"Then tell Randy."
"If it turns out you are pregnant then I would say tell him because he has a right to be involved in whatever you choose, you two being a couple and all. Listen to your gut here Ariel. It wouldn't lead you too far from what you need to do. You might be surprised; Randy might be thrilled about this."
"Thanks Hayley, for talking to me about all of this stuff. I know it can't be easy."
"It's not easy and it's not all that hard either, so what do you say we get back to reading these magazines and figuring out what frock you are going to wear down the aisle?"
****************************************************
"So how did her appointment go?"
"As well as I thought it would given the circumstances. She has to go back in a week and see her again, but for the most part she seems better then when she went."
"So she's not extremely pissed off at me for suggesting it?"
"If you want to know if she's going to tell Ariel to dump your sorry ass, I think the answer would be no. She won't do anything to ruin her friend's happiness, but for the time being I don't think she looks at you like she did before."
"I kind of figured that when I opened my mouth, but you have to admit it was the right thing."
"It was, and you're still my best friend. Now this is the first time that she let me out of the damn house to drink with you, so why don't we enjoy it?"
Randy laughed and signaled the waitress around for another round of beers. Zach had a point. It seemed that Hayley didn't want him leaving the house much anymore for fear of something happening, but she had been the one that had suggested the two of them going out tonight and having a good time. Maybe the doctor issue was helping her in ways she didn't even know.
"So have you and Ariel decided on a wedding date?"
"No, and to be honest, asking her was hard enough for me. I don't know if I can deal with sitting down right now and choosing a day out of the year to say, hell let's become man and wife."
"Do you want to marry her?"
"Zach dude, do you always have to ask the questions that I find so hard to answer?"
"So I take that to mean you don't want to marry her?"
"No, I do, but at this point Zach, I don't know if I am ready to walk down the aisle with her. It's been happening recently where I notice women more then I ever did and it's starting to freak me out."
"Have you talked to your girlfriend about this?"
"Would you talk to Hayley if you had this issue?"
"Yes, and I already have. When we first got married and she was pregnant with Carioca there was this one girl, I guess you could say she was like a ring rat. Anyway to make a long story short, she came on to me one night in my hotel room, and being a guy, I was aroused by it."
"So you went home and told Hayley all about it?"
"Not exactly."
'What does that mean Zach?" Randy asked quietly, getting the feeling there was a whole lot more Zach was going to open up with tonight.
"I talked to Hayley about how it made me feel, being an object of another woman's lust but in terms of telling her everything, no I didn't."
'What didn't you tell her?"
"Randy I swear to God if this ever gets out to anyone other then the two of us I will kill you, but I slept with this girl. I know there was no excuse but I wanted to know what it felt like to be with someone else and not be tied down. It should have happened before I married Hayley and before I even got back together with her but it didn't. I learned from it though and that's why I'm telling you to talk to your girlfriend before this happens to you too."
"I can't believe you cheated on her Zach, what the hell were you thinking? I was talking about being interested in looking at other women, but not actually sleeping with them. Dude if she ever finds out your marriage is over."
"Don't I know it? Which is why if I have my way she never will, right Randy?"
