Chapter 5:
It was Saturday before Stephanie knew it and her mom was suppose to bring Emily up to see her.
Stephanie was in her office talking to Chris. The two of them had decided to try and have a relationship.
Stephanie and Chris were kissing when Linda walked in holding sleeping Emily.
"Mom hi, I uh didn't know you were here." Stephanie says pulling back from Chris.
"It's no problem Stephanie. Here take your daughter please she is sleeping." Linda says handing her to Stephanie.
"Maybe I should leave." Chris says getting up to leave.
"You don't have to but you can if you want." Stephanie says before she kisses Emily on her forehead.
"I think I should." Chris says grabbing his jacket and walking out of the room.
"When did you start a thing with him Steph?" Linda asks sitting at stephanie's desk.
"Like three days ago." Stephanie says laying Emily on the couch. Emily opened her eyes as soon as Stephanie layed her down.
"Mommy!" Emily screamed
"Hi Em, I missed you so much baby." Stephanie says picking her up off the couch.
"I stay at work with mommy now." Emily says hugging Stephanie.
"I don't think so sweetheart." Linda says
"Mom could we have some time alone with each other." Stephanie says.
"Sure I'll see you later." Linda says and leaves.
Stephanie is playing on the floor with Emily when Paul walks in.
"Mommy man walking in." Emily says pointing to Paul.
Stephanie turns around and looks and is really worried when she see's Paul.
"Hey Steph sorry for just walking in but I wanted to talk to you." Paul says.
"I'm busy Paul." Stephanie says worrying he will ask who Emily is.
"Who's this?" Paul asks pointing to Emily
"Her names Emily."
"You babysitting?"
"We will talk later alright." Stephanie says
"Fine, see you later. Bye Emily." Paul says smiling at her
"Bye Mr. Triple H" Emily says
Paul left then Stephanie sat on the floor with Emily.
"Mommy how come I don't have a daddy like Declan?" Emily asks looking upset and confused
Stephanie looked down at her. She knew this day was going to happen but she didn't know it would happen so soon.
"Listen Em you have a daddy like Declan but your dad..." Stephanie says but then doesn't know what to say and she see's Chris walking in.
"But my dad what?" Emily asks
"Hey Steph, I'm sorry for walking out like I did earlier." Chris says sitting on the floor next to Stephanie.
"It's alright I didn't mean for you to find out about Emily like you did." Stephanie says
"It's alright Steph. She looks a lot like you." Chris says
"MOMMY!" Emily screams
"What sweetie?" Stephanie asks turning towards her
"Play with me." Emily demands
"Alright let mommy finish talking to Chris then I'll play with you."
"Ok I'll jump on the couch while I wait." Emily says running towards the couch
"Emily Christine don't you even think about jumping on that couch." Stephanie says
"Please mommy." Emily says giving the puppy lip
"Alright but be careful."
"Yay." Emily says and starts jumping up and down.
"What did you need Chris?" Stephanie asks
"I didn't want you to get the wrong idea when I just left. I still want to be with you Steph. So what do you say if I take you and Emily out to dinner tonight?" Chris asks grabbing her hand
"I'll talk to Emily about it and see what she thinks." Stephanie says and then smiles
"I'll ask her myself." Chris says
"Emily how would you like it if I took you and your mom out to dinner tonight?" Chris asks
"Yeah. I finally get to come on one of mommy's dates. Yay!" Emily shouts excited.
"I'll see you later Chris." Stephanie says and hugs him. He kisses her cheek.
"Bye Chris" Emily waves from the couch
"Bye Emily."
"Emily your gonna come and meet a very good friend of mommy's alright." Stephanie says picking her up and walking out of the room.
Stephanie walks to Amy's locker room and knocks on the door.
"Hey steph come in." Amy says
"Hi Amy, Matt." Stephanie says sitting down
"Who is this little cutie?" Amy asks pointing to Emily
"This is Emily my daughter." Stephanie says
"Your daughter when did you? Why didn't I know about her." Amy asks shocked.
"I found out I was pregnant about a month after Paul said he wanted the divorce." Stephanie says putting Emily on the floor.
"Does he know?" Amy asks
"No, and he can't ever know he will try to take her off of me." Stephanie says
"Alright I ain't saying nothing and neither is Matt." Amy says and smiles to reassure Stephanie.
"Hello Emily I'm your aunt Amy and this is your uncle Matt." Amy says to her.
"Hi Aunt Amy, mommy told me all stories about you." Emily says
"Well now you won't have to hear the stories and will get to know the real thing." Amy says
"Could you watch her while I go talk to someone real fast?" Stephanie asks
"Sure." Amy says
"Thanks you're the best." Stephanie says before she leaves.
Stephanie goes to Paul's locker room.
"Steph I was just coming to talk to you again. Where you babysitting earlier?" Paul asks
"Yeah sure." Stephanie says
"Look Paul nothing against you but we can't be friends I would rather you leave me alone lets stop talking it isn't any good for either one of us." Stephanie says
"Why do you feel this way now is it that punk Chris?" Paul asks getting red in the face
"Before you start getting mad listen to me. It isn't like we have any kids to be civil for." Stephanie says
"Your right. Bye then Ms. McMahon." Paul says before Stephanie leaves the locker room.
