Chapter 21

"Confusion and More Pain"

A/N: Another chapter here for you guys! KK this chapter is getting to something! And it's going to uncover some things from the past! John's past that is, (The thing with Kimmy's past will be in another chapter, iunno which one yet since there's so much drama building up!) but yeah pay close attention coz there will be some uncovering going on, I think. Well this chapter is a continuation from the last one, when they're all at the resturant, enjoy:


John sat there, next to Persephanie, watching to see if Reanna would come any closer. She was near the entryway signing autographs for some fans.

"I can't believe people want her autograph!" Md laughed, "She's heel for God's sakesl!"

"Yeah but everyone gotta love the wwe divas!" John laughed.

Persephanie eyed him, "Everyone?"

John couldn't help but laugh, "Well I'm not part of it, I don't like any of them."

"I like Trish though, she's cool!" Md smiled.

"Yeah so do I" Persephanie agreed.

"Hmm…iunno about that one, her outfits are getting a bit too... I don't know. It's just not my type." John shook his head.

"What do you mean her outfits aren't you're type? I dress similar as her!" Persephanie whined, laughing.

"No you don't, you're clothes don't peek out like hers do!" John argued.

Md started laughing, "Peek out? Don't you mean cleavage? Johnny."

"Oh whatever how am I suppose to know? But still, Sephie's outfits aren't remotely similar." John took a long sigh. So did Persephanie, after seeing Reanna inch away from the fans and closer to them.

"Do you guys think she's coming over to us? Coz I don't want her to." Md looked on, shaking her head, once Reanna approached their table.

"Oh hey, funny seeing you guys here!" She smiled.

"Oh is it?" Persephanie rolled her eyes but John nudged her. "What?" she just continued eating not paying any more attention to her.

"Yeah so…" John didn't know what to say.

"Well…I don't want to take anymore time away from you three so I'll leave you guys now." She smiled, trying to play the innocent role.

"Fine by me." Md said quietly.

"Ok… I'll just catch up with you later, John, I guess." Reanna said.

"Uh- yeah, yeah," John smiled, watching her leave and go onto a different table. "You know you guys don't have to be so mean to her! I mean she's trying to be nice and-"

"It's just an act, baby don't tell me you're falling for that shit she's playing! I can see right through her, and I don't know why you cant!" Persephanie continued eating.

"Hey look maybe it's not an act, I mean I've know her for so long, she's hung out with me a lot before I met you-"

"And what is you're point exactly? That she's had first dibs on you, and that you guys get each other more?" Persephanie couldn't help but be defensive. She wasn't so comfortable with this conversation; it was making her insecure for some reason and she didn't like it.

"No baby! It's just that she use to be so different before I met you, then all of a sudden she changed once I came back from that break I took. And you know, don't take this the wrong way, but I want my old Reanna back."

"Oh wow, I'm sorry, ok you said that she changed once you met me right?" John nodded his head, "Ok and you said that you want the old her back, and the way I see it is that, she'd change back if you get rid of me. So is that what you're trying to say, or?"

"No, oh my god, baby I didn't say that! I meant that I miss the old her, and I'd rather have the old her than how she is now! I didn't say anything about getting rid of you! C'mon! I'm just trying to make my way around, to get that old Reanna back. With me and her as friends and nothing more." John reasoned.

"Yeah well with you guys having a child, it's definitely not going to be on the just friends side of things." Persephanie quietly said, pulling in the slight bit of attitude she hasn't pulled in a while.

John didn't want to talk about it anymore, afraid he might say something to trigger any of their insecurities. He just draped his arms over her, resting his head lightly on her neck, "I love you."

"Ha, that's a nice cover-up." Persephanie took a sip of her drink, "I love you too."

"I love you both!" Md hated being left out.

John laughed, pulling his head up, "I love you too little Angel." He winked at her, "What do you want to do next?"

"Go back to the hotel and watch a movie with Kimmy, Randy and you two." Md took a sip of her own drink.

"Ok, done deal then. You guys ready?" John asked.

"Yeah… now I am." D-Marie got up.

"Wait for me," Persephanie said in a hyped up tone of voice, she got up with John's help, "Ok lets go!"

John let both girls walk in front of him, holding Persephanie's hand. He looked back at Reanna. Meeting her eyes, he smiled back at her, giving it warmth and himself confusion all around. For some reason she's been roaming around in his mind. He wanted to make things all right with her, for things to be back the way they were. Back to when they were friends, real good friends. But John also had a feeling that Persephanie was right. That she would have to be gone in order for Reanna to bloom back. He didn't know what to do…

--------- During the Movies in Persephanie's and John's Hotel Room ---------

"Baby are you alright?" Persephanie looked on to John.

"Yep I'm fine," John said softly.

Persephanie wasn't so convinced so she tried to boost up his spirits by being affectionate. She snaked her hand down his arm capturing his hand and playing with it. Making her way up to his neck, she gave it a soft kiss.

"Whoa, Sephie wait stop, stop." John lightly pushed her off of him.

"Hmm… what's wrong?" Persephanie sat up, seconds later she ran her hand down his neck but he just pushed it away, this time not so lightly.

"Whoa baby what is going on? Why are you pushing me away from you?" Persephanie gulped seeing John slip out of the bed. He stood against the wall avoiding her eyes.

The trio stopped the movie and opened the lights, thinking a problem was going on, "You guys alright?"

"I don't know John are we?" Persephanie's voice was shaky, but it also showed somewhat of frustration at the character that John was portraying.

"No guys, you go ahead with the movie, I just need some thinking to do. I'll be right back," By the time anyone knew it he was out the door, leaving Persephanie in complete confusion.

"What is going on with that boy?" Persephanie made herself more comfortable in bed. She knew John Cena's temper and wasn't willing to play with it at this point, even though she had no idea what was going on.

"Well did anything happen when you guys went out to dinner earlier?" Kimmy asked, sitting next to her best friend for comfort.

"No everything was fine, at least I think it was, I don't know." Persephanie once again, felt like crying but she had to stay strong. She let her head reston Kim's shoulders.

"Well Reanna did pass by and then yeah…" Md said. She sat closer to her sister as well.

Randy got up from the couch and sat on the bed with the ladies feeling isolated, "Well the stress is getting to him. Sephie don't worry, he's just wanting things to be perfect for the two of you and that's not exactly the case now with the baby coming. He's being extra hard on himself now; so just let him cool off. He's fine, and you guys will be all right don't worry. He loves you too much, so with all the problems passing by, you know…"

Persephanie nodded in some relief, but she still wasn't completely ok with what was happening to John. She was starting to think that Reanna was having an effect on him, after the conversation they had earlier about wanting the old her back, was taking a toll on both Persephanie and John.

------------------------------------------------

"Damn it!" John groaned in frustration. He banged his fist against the elevator wall and leaned against it crossing his arms, leaning his head back as well he thought, and thought. "Just like the old days…" he muttered to himself. He remembered when him and Reanna would just fool around backstage in a playful but flirting way. He remembered it crystal clear, though being with Persephanie, he almost forgot about it. Now it is coming back to him. Thoughts of the advice she gave him, thoughts of how she was his back bone, thoughts of how they were the best of friends before. But now she changed, he changed and he fell in love with Persephanie. She hid her feeling throughout their friendship. So in panic to wanting him, and hating the lost when she found out he was taken, she turned to being the bitch. And he can see it now.

Making him in so much confusion, after the elevator door opened up, he walked out, searching for the room to find the advice he needs. Once he got there, he struggled to bring his hand to the door for a knock. He sucked it up, knocking, the door finally opened up, "John?"

John stood there, in front of the woman he needed to desperately talk to, "Reanna can we talk?"

"Oh – uh," She looked back, "Yeah sure just give me a second ok?"

John nodded and smiled, waiting patiently.

She came back seconds later, closing the door behind her, "Sorry I just had to make sure Kurt was asleep."

John frowned, "Oh I almost forgot you two were dating."

Reanna chuckled, "As if it makes a difference to you. But yeah well with the busy schedule, me and him find it hard to be together in public, but we try."

The two began to walk down the hall, "Well are you sure it's just the busy schedule?" John asked pressing the down button on the elevator.

Reanna eyed him curiously, "What's that suppose to mean?"

He laughed stepping into the elevator with her, "Nothing. I just don't feel that love is up between you two."

Reanna shrugged, "It takes time."

"Yeah well a girl like you doesn't deserve to wait, you should be someone you love instead of wasting your time with that jerk." John said without thinking…much.

"Yeah well I wish I can be with the person I love, but he's already taken." Reanna blurted out.

This caught John's attention, he knew almost for sure, that she meant him. And his response? Well it definitely wasn't something he should've have said, it just gave in more confusion, "Well then why don't go after him? You love him, who knows all the fight might pay off soon."

Reanna smiled, "I hope so, I'm working hard to get him back."

John was now the one with curiosity, "Get him back? You've had him before?"

"Well, sort of, I mean we were friends before but now he has this girl on his back and now we don't even seem to be friends at all." Reanna said.

John was a 99.9 percent sure that it was him now, and it was making him question his feelings. What if he had some for Reanna? For some reason, Persephanie never once crossed his mind through that time him and Reanna talked. The two talked and talked about random things in the catering. By the time they knew it, it was pass midnight, pass 2 a.m. That was when they decided to go back to bed. Reanna back to Kurt, and John back to Persephanie. But with him being a gentleman he walked her back to her room first, "I'll just see you tomorrow I guess."

"Yeah, thanks for talking to me." Reanna smiled.

"You're welcome, anytime." John smiled back and said goodbye.

------------------------------------------------

Walking in, John once again found Persephanie sleeping peacefully in bed. Not wanting to wake her up, he changed, and went straight to bed, just like the other night. Though waking up wasn't the same.

"John wake up." Persephanie wrapped her arm around his shoulders, "The doctors called and they said we can come up and get the results."

John groaned, "Now?"

Persephanie nodded, giving his shoulder a kiss, "Yeah."

"Ah, I'm sleepy though." He said in an annoyed tone of voice.

"Awe, what time did you get back last night?" Persephanie asked.

"I don't know, 2:30ish." John answered lamely.

"2:30? Dang what were you doing all night?" Persephanie asked trying not to get sulky, like John already was.

"Talking to Reanna." John answered slipping his shoulder off of Persephanie's arm.

"Oh…" Persephanie's mood went straight down. She tried to be reasonable with John and give him his space, not wanting him to get anymore mad that he seemed to be already. "Ok well if you don't want to go, I can go by myself it'll be fine. You can get your sleep."

John didn't answer, but just went back to sleep.

Persephanie got up and out the door almost in tears, but she stayed strong. By this time in her life, staying strong was something she mastered. More pain was something she was use to dealing with. Mmm I hope he's not loosing interest in me now. I need him; I can't possibly go on without him in my life. A single tear escaped her eye; she couldn't hold it any longer. Just thinking about everything made her want to leave and finally just give up. But Give-Up wasn't part of her book, she never gave up on anything and she wouldn't dare start now. Its all right Sephie John is just going through a lot, it's ok. Besides as I like to say, "There is not one true love that never went rough."

------------------------------------------------

Persephanie nervously took a seat in front of the doctor's desk. He began to talk about the test and it's results. He started with what was fine and what were ok, this and that. "Nothing seems to be wrong,but we did find something. We ran it multiple times and well…" The doctor told her what was up, making Persephaniein complete denial, she couldn't believe it.She didn't know what to do now, "Oh my god you cant be serious…."
