Chapter 27: Delancey's Birthday
A week before Summerslam, John and Nicole along with Shelton were in Chesterfield, Missouri for Delancey's birthday party. Tomorrow was actually her birthday but Nicole and Shelton planned to have it a day early since RAW was on Delancey's birthday.
At Delancey and her parents' house, John and Nicole, along with Dave, Rochelle, Christy, and Stacy Keibler who they invited, were helping setting up for the party. Delancey's parents even invited some of her friends from high school and college. Everything was almost ready and Nicole had the balloons set up on the table where the food was. John, Dave, and Rochelle came out with pizza, chips, and drinks in the cooler.
"Well, everything is almost ready," Rochelle said.
"Yep. Now all we need is Stacy to bring out the cake and we're good to go," Dave said as he and Rochelle sat the food on the table and John sat the cooler next to the table.
"I gotta tell you," John said, "Delancey is gonna be so surprised, I hope this plan works."
Delancey, along with Shelton, was running some errands for her parents as a plan to keep her busy for everyone to set up for the party.
"Hey, you pulled off an early surprise birthday party for me," Nicole said. "I'm sure this will work."
Then Delancey's mom, Chantelle, came forward.
"Hello, everyone," Chantelle said.
"Hello," John, Nicole, Dave, and Rochelle said.
"How's everything?"
"It's great," Rochelle said.
"I just want to say thank you for helping me along with this party."
"No problem," Nicole said.
"We're happy to help, Chantelle," John said.
Then Chantelle walked away and Christy came forward with the punch.
"I got the punch, everyone," Christy said sitting the bowl on the table.
"Good, now we still need Stacy to bring the cake before Shelton and Delancey get here," Dave said.
"They could be on their way right now," Rochelle said. "Did Shelton texted you yet, Nicole?"
"No, he didn't," Nicole said.
"Well, here are the burgers and hot dogs," Delancey's dad, Steven, said bringing the pan to the table.
"Good, we're almost set," Christy said.
"Now you are," Stacy said arriving with the cake.
"Alright, it's finally here," Rochelle said.
"Is it the cake Chantelle ordered?" Steven said.
"Yep. Chocolate cake, indeed," Stacy said opening the box.
The cake was chocolate with chocolate icing, sprinkles, and purple writing that said "Happy Birthday Delancey."
"Well, it looks like everything is ready," Steven said. "Now all we have to do is wait for Shelton and Delancey. Thanks for helping with the party.
"You're welcome," everyone else said as Steven walked away.
"At least Delancey has a dad who can be there for her," Rochelle said.
"I know that's right," Nicole said.
Before Delancey was born, her grandparents to moved to Missouri from Mexico and a few years later, Chantelle was born. When Chantelle was in her junior year of college, her parents died in a car accident. Six years later, Delancey's biological father, who was Italian-American, died of a heart attack when she was three. Three years later, Chantelle married Steven. Delancey may not have met her grandparents from Mexico, but she still keep contact with her grandparents from Italy. And Delancey may not have known her biological father too well, but at least she had a father who was always there to take care of her.
Nicole's cell phone vibrated and she took it out to see that Shelton had texted her to let Nicole know that he and Delancey were almost at the house.
"Oh, my god. Shelton and Delancey are a block away from the house," Nicole said. "We gotta get everyone together."
"Alright," John said. "Hey, everyone, can I have your attention, please? Shelton and Delancey are about to walk inside the house. So let's get everyone together to surprise Delancey."
They did that and a few minutes later, Shelton and Delancey came out through the door.
"Okay, open your eyes," Shelton said.
Delancey opened her eyes and then...
"SURPRISE!"
Delancey stood there in shock and amazement seeing John, Nicole, Dave, Rochelle, Christy, Stacy, and some of her old friends from high school and college.
"What is this?" Delancey asked.
"It's your surprise birthday party," Shelton said. "I know that your birthday is tomorrow and just like what John did for Nicole's birthday, I wanted everyone here to celebrate it with me."
"Shelton, I can't believe you did this for me. I love you."
"I love you."
Delancey grabbed Shelton's face and kissed him. Then she walked through the crowd saying hello to her old friends from high school and college. She then came across John, Nicole, Dave, Rochelle, Christy, Stacy.
"Hey, you guys," Delancey said.
"Hey," everyone said.
"Thank you guys so much. I don't know what to say."
"Well, at least you can still be the Women's Champion on your birthday tomorrow," Nicole said.
"I know that's right."
An hour later...
"Nicole, can we talk?" Delancey said walking up to Nicole who was talking to John.
"Yeah, sure," Nicole said.
She and Delancey walked inside the house to the living room and sat on the couch.
"Look, I want you to know that no matter what happens at Summerslam, no matter who the Women's Champion is, I hope that we can still be best friends," Delancey said.
"We will, Delancey," Nicole said. "It's Lita who happens to be the problem. She's got the nerve to put us in a Women's Championship match at Summerslam after everything she's done to us. I'm telling you the moment Matt Hardy beats Edge, we are going to kick the slut's ass ourselves."
"Definitely. I mean, what we did to her at Vengeance after Edge's match against Kane, man, that felt good."
"It sure did."
"Come on. Let's party."
Nicole and Delancey got up from the couch and walked to the backyard to hear "Don't Cha" by the Pussycat Dolls playing.
"Hey, they're playing my song," Delancey said.
"Let's grab our guys and bust a move," Nicole said.
"Let's go."

"Okay, everyone," Steven said. "It's time for Delancey to blow out the candles."
Then everyone gathered around the table as Chantelle lighted up the candles for Delancey to blow them.
"Okay, everyone, on three," Chantelle said. "One, two, three."
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday, dear Delancey
Happy birthday to you
Everyone cheered as Delancey made her wish and blew out the candles.
