"Are you ready for today?" Alexis asked as she and Randy carried the babies and their things inside the arena that the WWE was doing their show at that night. It was the night Evolution would officially be reforming on the show and Randy had been having mixed feelings about it ever since he had been informed by Shane that it was happening.
"I guess I have to be" Randy said not sounding a bit enthused like he usually did "I mean I know that its a different time now than it was back then and that I can block out all of the bullcrap that went on back then but I'm still not fully enthused about it".
"Well at least Dave will be there with you" Alexis told Randy, trying to be at least a bit helpful. Randy smiled faintly at her and simply nodded his head. The rest of the trip to the locker room was made in silence with both in their own thoughts about Evolution and what it being reformed would bring to them not only individually but as a couple.
"So what have you got to do tonight?" Trish asked John as they were sitting in the locker room. They were alone at the moment seeing as Jessie had went off with Maven seeing as she 'hadn't spent much time with him in a while'. Trish was sitting between John's legs, laying against his chest.
"Well I got that promo with you and then I got a promo with Randy and Dave. Apparently me, Maven, Mark, and Shawn have a feud starting with them" John looked less than happy about feuding with Evolution even though he was friends with Randy and Dave. Trish rubbed his arms that were circled around his waist.
"I hate that" Trish spoke up "I mean I know Randy and Dave are great guys and all but Ric is such a creepy old man and Paul just has way too much power. I mean I wouldn't put it past him to do something not in the script and you know he wouldn't get in trouble for it since he's boinking Stephanie".
"I know honey" John said understandingly "and it doesn't help that Paul doesn't like me either. If anything he'd take some kind of liberty with me".
"Well I don't care who he is or who he's boinking" Trish exclaimed hotly "if he even thinks of trying to actually injure you or breaks script to do something to you he'll have a pissed off Canadian on his ass".
"Aww" John cooed hugging tightly "my finacee would beat up an overgrown ape man for me". Trish laughed and looked back at John.
"Who said I was talking about me?" she kidded John "I was planning on paying Jay to beat him up" John laughed at Trish and tickled her sides lightly.
Alexis was sitting in Randy's locker room alone with Matty and Syd. Randy had left earlier to go do his promo's and go over his match that night and she had been alone ever since. There was a knock on the door that brought Alexis out of her thoughts. She went over to it and saw a backstage worker standing there "yes?" she asked, wondering what he wanted.
"I was given a note by Mr. Orton to give to you" the worker said handing Alexis a small piece of paper. She thanked him and closed the door. She walked back over to the couch she had been sitting on and sat down before unfolding the piece of paper. Randy's messy writing greeted her.
Alexis,
Hey honey. Listen I'm sorry but they just told me that they want us to go do some shots at a club and a few other places tonight. I dunno what time I'm gonna be back to the hotel. I'm SO sorry. Listen I talked to John after all of us planned out our match and he told me he, Trish and Jessie hadn't checked in to a hotel yet and he'd get a suite so you and the kids can stay with them tonight so you won't be alone if you want to. If not that's fine but he also said he'd give you a ride to the hotel also. Just find him or Trish after the show. Once again I'm sorry, you have no idea how bad I feel about this. It was a last minute thing though, I had no control over it. Nature of the beast I'm afraid. Anyway I love you alot honey, kiss my babies for me and tell them daddy loves them. I'll see you first thing at the arena tomorrow.
Randy
Alexis was a bit upset after she read Randy's note but she reasoned that it was, how'd Randy put it, 'the nature of the beast'. Alexis crumbled up the note and threw it in the trash, she walked over and put her sleeping babies in their carseats and gathered their things up. No use in staying alone if Randy wasn't coming back. She walked down the hall and found the women's locker room. She knocked on the door and waited for someone to answer. "Hey" Trish said opening the door "what are you doing here? I figured you'd be with your man".
"My man" Alexis said coming in with her things, Trish grabbing one of the carseats from her to help "is gonna be away for most of the night. Apparently they have him and the rest of Evolution taping promos and crap tonight all over town. He won't be back til late and told me to get a ride from John and you. Also he said something about rooming with you, John and Jessie in a suite or something. I dunno about that though".
"Why not?" Trish asked from where she was sitting on the bench, playing with Matty who had woken up from sleeping. Alexis took Syd from her carseat, even though she was still asleep, and sighed loudly before answering.
"Well I don't wanna be in the way" she said looking over at Trish "I mean I don't want to keep you and John from anything".
Trish laughed loudly and looked at Alexis with a 'yeah right' look "honey if you haven't remembered I'm pregnant. John and I can't do much hanky panky right now, and anyway Jessie rooms with us anyway and we can't do anything with her there. So come on, room with us it'll be fun. Plus I don't like the thought of you all alone in a hotel room".
"Well ok" Alexis agreed hesitantly "if you're sure".
"I so am" Trish said "we'll have a girls night in with Jessie and Syd, except John and Matty will be there. But we might can get them to watch a ballgame in the other room or something" Alexis giggled and agreed. The girls stayed there for a bit and chatted while the rest of the show went on. Jessie came in at some point and joined them in their talk. After they had chatted for about an hour the show was over. Trish helped Alexis gather up the babies things and they made their way back to John's locker room.
"Hey honey" Trish said going up to John and kissing him. He was coming outside his locker room, bags in hand. He kissed her back and when they broke apart Trish gestured to Alexis and the babies "we have company".
"Yeah" John said smiling at Alexis "Randy asked me earlier about giving her a ride and sharing a condo or suite or something".
"Thanks for the ride" Alexis said, bending her head down shyly. No matter how much she was told that she wasn't she still felt like a bit of a burden to the couple.
"No problem at all" John said, not sounding bothered in the slightest.
"Yeah and us girls are having a girls night in" Trish said "so you and Matty will have to find something to do".
"Ooooh" John said, his eyes lighting up "Patriots game on tonight" he bent down to where Matty was sitting in his carseat chewing on his fingers "Matty we're gonna give you a lesson in your first sports game". Matty looked at John and smiled widely "that's my nephew" John said rubbing his bald head lightly.
"Oh Lord" Alexis moaned comically "that's all I need is my son growing up to be a beer guzzling, skirt, chasing, hellraiser".
"Only if he's raised right" John kidded her, taking Matty's carseat from her and walking down the hall. All three girls rolled their eyes at him before following.
On the way to the hotel John stopped by the store and got snacks and all for the girls and himself. The girls sat in the car while he went in, he also took Jessie with him so she could help him carry the bags.
"Daddy what all can I get?" Jessie asked John as she looked at the rows and rows of candy. He was stooped down getting a few bags of lollipops.
"Whatever you want" John said standing back up "Trish just said get alot of junk food".
"Ok" Jessie grabbed various bags and put them in the cart John had.
"See Matty" John said quietly to the infant who was laying in his arms "what the quarterback just did was bootlegging. It's the sign of a smart player" Matty looked up at him with a smile. "Oh" John exclaimed quietly when the ref called a foul on the team he was rooting for "see that's a cheap shot Matty. Those are only legal when no one sees you do it. Which the ref didn't so no harm no foul" John chuckled slightly at his joke before turning back to the game. The Vikings scored a touch down and John almost screamed until he remembered the child in his arms "the Vikings are bad Matty, really bad don't ever root for them ok. You ask me or your daddy who to root for we'll tell ya the good teams". The rest of the game went by with John explaining a few things to Matty as the infant listened quietly to John's quiet, soothing voice.
"I love this movie" Jessie said as the girls were sitting in the living room watching How to Lose A Guy in 10 Days. They were stuffing their faces with the junk food and knocking back sodas. Alexis had been very hesitant about spending the night in a suite with them, feeling as if she would be intruding, but she had to admit to herself that she had been having fun since they had got there.
"Me too" Trish said "Matthew McConaughey is so hot". She acted like she was fanning herself and Jessie and Alexis laughed at her antics.
"Don't let daddy hear you say that" Jessie said to Trish with a giggle "he might get jealous".
"Aww" Trish said looking back toward the room John and Matty were in "no matter who I see on tv or in movies there is only one man for me, John is that man. He has made me happier than I've been in a long time. He has no reason to be jealous because no matter how many guys I think are hot or cute I'll never feel for then the way I feel for John".
"Aww" Jessie and Alexis cooed. The girls watched the rest of the movie before deciding to go to bed. Alexis stood up with Syd in her arms and followed Trish to her and John's bedroom so she could get Matty.
"Oh that's so cute" Trish squealed quietly as they walked into the room. John was laying on the bed asleep with Matty laying on his bare chest also asleep.
"How am I gonna get Matty without waking John?" Alexis asked.
"Why don't you just leave him?" Trish asked her "it'll be good practice for John to get up with him tonight for when our baby comes" Trish put a hand to her stomach and smiled.
"Ok" Alexis agreed before telling Trish goodnight and going to her own room with Sydney. Trish went and changed into a night gown before getting in the bed beside John, she covered them up, making sure Matty's head was above the covers before putting her head on John's arm and falling asleep.
