Chapter 8

"Whoa!" Chris leans back, blinking. I'm biting my lip again-it's a nervous habit that I've been trying to rid myself of, but at the present time, it's not exactly the first thing on my mind. "You're pregnant," he repeats slowly, as if trying to get used to the fact. But damn, that sounded weird out of his mouth. I'm pregnant… Jeez, I'm not even used to it. "And its Matt's," he says, confirming the facts. He lets out a long breath. "How far along are you, Amy?"

"About a month," I admit. A long silence hangs over us.

"Are you sure I can't kick his ass?" Chris asks earnestly. I laugh, but shake my head 'no'. He sighs in defeat, and glances down to my stomach. "You're not showing yet," he points out and I nod. He meets my eyes. "People are going to talk when you do start showing, Lita," he tells me, and I nod.

"I know… I intend on telling everyone soon." Okay, so I do. I'm not looking forward to it, or making any plans, but I will…later.

"You're procrastinating," Chris informs me.

"Me? Procrastinate?" I try and look innocent, but he just shakes his head.

"Are you really, really sure I can't kick Matt's ass because I could, you know, and just get him out of the way so—" he says.

"No," I say firmly, cutting him off.

"Okay, okay. I just have a few questions." I raise an eyebrow.

"Go on."

"A little birdy told me you kicked Trish's ass today," he started, but didn't finish, hesitating.

Yep, and I'm darn well proud of it. Not the fact that Jeff saw it, mind you. But Trish deserved it. "Yeah, and? She's a bitch."

"She's dating Jeff."

"She broke up with him."

"You two are supposed to be friends," Chris continues, and I can see the surprise in his eyes at my comment earlier.

"She cheated on Jeff with Matt!" I explode, and Chris suddenly scowls, freezing.

Crap.

"Chris-"

"He cheated on you with your brother's girlfriend?" Chris repeats, and I can see the anger building in him. "I'm going to kick his ass," he growled.

"Listen to me, Chris! I'm all for kicking his ass, but you know he'd start a vendetta. I want him out of my life, not constantly in it," I look him in the eye. "I promise that when I go on maternity leave, you can kick his ass. Hell, have fun kicking his ass. Put in a few punches for me."

Chris took a moment to calm himself down, and then looked me in the eye. "What is going on between you and Adam?" he asks seriously. I pause, lost for words.

"I…I…"

Jericho leans back, looking suspiciously satisfied. "So have you do done the dirty yet?" he wiggles his eyebrows, and I swat him with one hand. "Ow! I was just kidding!" he rubs his arm. "Darn pregnant women and their mood swings," he mutters, and I roll my eyes.

Suddenly, it didn't seem so bad, telling everyone about this. I mean, Matt and I were together when it happened, so it's not like it was cheating or anything. It's just…bad timing. I smile at Chris, thankful that he was there to listen and he didn't seem bothered by it. I know I have to tell Adam now, and I'm not really that concerned anymore. I know he, like Jericho, is going to want to attack Matt, but I don't really care.

I'm starting to get attached to that idea myself.
