Three months gone and Michelle was already showing. It was a small bump but it was there and noticeable. She really couldn't believe that in six months she'd be giving birth to a child. Her child. And it was her child with John. She never failed to remind herself that anytime her mind tried to go elsewhere. She and Randy were finished. Done. They'd had minimal contact within these three months which was better for both parties. Rumor was that the woman she'd met that night when they'd run into each other was there to stay. John told her that even some of the Divas had heard about Randy proposing. None of the Divas liked her. She knew because John told her and she'd seen first hand whenever she was around them at the arenas. Whatever. That's Randy's choice and if he wants to marry the women that's his prerogative. Hating to admit it Michelle felt that little twinge of jealousy knowing that he was finally moving on. What could she do? They'd always have that love for each other but with everything that had happened between them she knew that it wasn't meant to be.

"Even if he is the father." She spoke softly to herself as she rubbed her belly.

John heard her mumble to herself as he walked inside the room. "You okay baby?" He asked when he saw the look on her face.

Michelle turned hearing his voice. "Oh yeah. I'm fine. Didn't even hear you come in." She assured with a polite smile.

John made his way over to her and placed his hand on her belly. "You just seemed a little distant."

Michelle placed her hand over his. "Just been thinking a lot lately. Nothing to worry about." She assured again as she let him embrace her into a hug.

John wanted to pry but decided against it. He didn't want to stress her out. But it was just her solemn mood lately. He didn't know if it was already the hormones taking affect but it was something. Every time he'd tried to talk to her she'd just come up with her assurances that she was fine. He made a point to call Dave, knowing that he was probably the only that could get something from her.

"I'm sorry I've been in and out these days. I hate doing that to you." He said with nothing but guilt behind it.

Michelle heard it too. She knew he probably blamed himself for her mood but he had absolutely nothing with it. She hating coming with excuses every time he asked what was wrong but she wasn't going to say anything. Especially if had to deal with Randy. That was just too much heartbreak for both of them.

"Baby don't say that. I know my mood hasn't been up lately but it has nothing to with you. It's just me being an emotional pregnant woman. And ten times worse since I was already too emotional before this pregnancy." Michelle said giving a slight smile at the end.

I hope that's all it is. "Yeah. But I want to be there for you while you go through this. I hate the fact that I might be gone and something would happen."

Michelle felt her heart jump. He was like the man every woman hoped for and here she was sulking over someone who'd hurt her one too many times. She needed to get over it and soon.

"I love you so much John. And I promise I'll try not to sulk too much." Michelle said as she reached up to give him a soft kiss.

John ran his thumb over her cheek. "I love you too baby. And please do I hate to see you without a smile on your face."

Michelle smiled for him as she turned into his touch. "I know. You have nothing going on today do you?" She asked wrapping her arms around his neck.

John shook his head. "No. Thank God. You want to do lunch?"

Michelle gave him a 'Are you kidding' look. "John. I'm pregnant. What do you think?"

John's lips curved into a smile. "I have to keep reminding myself that. Lunch it is then." He said as he tucked her arm under his.

Michelle placed her hand over his arm as he lead her out of the hotel room.

Dave had just walked into the hotel lobby when he spotted Randy and his 'Girl' Heather. He grimaced as he heard her laugh. He'd spent little time with the two but when he did it was just … weird. Randy may have been known as a Playboy but Dave knew he had better taste than what he had. Michelle had been proof. He plastered a smile on his face when he saw the two make their way over to him.

"Big man. How's it going?" Randy greeted giving Dave a handshake.

Dave could see Heather with a big smile on her face. It was like it was plastered there permanently. "Ugh. I'm doing good. Just got back from a work-out." He answered flicking his eyes back at Randy.

Randy just nodded his head. He looked down at he and Heather's hand joined together. "Well. Yeah. I haven't talked to you in while. We should get together and have a drink or something."

"Yeah. That'd be so fun. We could have like a cocktail party or something." Heather chimed in.

Dave just 'looked' at her and then back at Randy. "Yeah. Sure. Sometime." Dave answered as he cleared his throat.

Randy knew Dave didn't favor Heather. Or anyone he knew for that matter. It'd been a lonely road without any friends to hang out with but he liked her. He liked Heather. He liked her company, he liked her beauty … And why was he using the word liked so much?

"So um. John. How are he and Michelle doing?" It hurt to even speak her name at times.

Dave saw the hurt flash in his eyes. He went to answer but looked ahead of him when he spotted Michelle and John step out of the elevator. He smiled seeing her little belly showing off for everyone. He really hadn't seen or talked to her unless she'd go with John to work.

Randy followed Dave's stare and found himself looking at Michelle and John making their way through the hotel lobby. He swallowed hard seeing her now showing a pregnant belly. Pregnant and Beautiful. If it was even possible pregnancy made her more beautiful then she already was. It still hurt. Too much sometimes. Especially whenever he saw the reminder of why they'd never be together again. The reminder that he'd messed everything up. That one mistake. That one mistake had cost him everything.

"She looks a little on the heavy side these days." Heather piped out as she followed everyone's gaze.

Dave rolled his eyes. How sad for her. And how sad for Randy. What in the hell was he thinking? Dave shook his head and plastered a smile on his face when Randy looked back at him.

"She's pregnant Heather." Randy informed her. He'd have to inform her of something new everyday. It's like she had lived in a cave or something as a child. Or just a sad poor rich girl experience.

"Oh." She grimaced. "I don't think I want to do that anytime soon. Look how big they get. So not chancing that." She said while she twirled her hair.

Randy let out a silent breath that only he could hear. And the rumor was that he was going to marry this woman? Wow …

X-x-x-X

Michelle didn't even have to look to know that he was there. All she had to do was feel his eyes on her and she knew. A forced smile spread across her face as she and John stopped to greet Dave.

"Dave. My man. Haven't talked to you in while." John greeted as he patted the big man's back.

Dave let out a small laugh. "I know. I miss talking to my favorite girl." He said wrapping his big arm around Michelle's shoulders.

Michelle patted his chest. "Well Cena over here won't let me out no where. He thinks I'll trip and fall everywhere I go." She joked.

John frowned. "You could you know. I'm just being a cautious. I'm a first time dad for God's sake." He sent her a 'look' in which she only smiled in return.

Dave squeezed her closer. "We'll have to get in some time together."

"We're actually going to lunch right now. Join us." Michelle suggested.

John nodded his head. "Yeah man. Join us."

"I just got back from a work-out. You two mind that?" Dave questioned.

Michelle waved a hand in front of her face. "That's what smells." She joked as she looked up at Dave who glared at her. "I'm just kidding big man. You can take a shower when you get back. Plus, you don't smell … yet."

"Ha. You're lucky you're pregnant little one. But yeah lunch sounds good." He said while just remembering that Randy and Heather were standing close by.

"Randy. We'll have to call each other to see about hanging out. You have my number right?" Dave asked as he turned with Michelle still under is arm.

Randy just nodded. "Yeah. I do. We'll do it soon." He said as he could see Heather staring down Michelle. They had just shut him out like he was just an acquaintance to them. What happened to he and Dave's friendship? They used to hang out all the time. Day and night. They even rode together from show to show. Now. Now it was just like they all tried to ignore him anyway possible. Damn it. It was his fault for everything. Why did he even exist? He looked up to meet the eyes that stared at him. Those brown eyes that he'd dream about at night. She just stared at him as if trying to read his mind. He missed her the most. Their friendship had been strong. Their love even stronger. He saw her eyes flicker over to rest on Heather. If he wasn't mistaken he saw them sadden a little. When she looked back at him she gave a polite smile.

"I'll talk to you later Orton. I'll call you." Dave announced as John was already leading the way out.

Randy just put his hand up before he watched them walk away. Michelle looked back once before grabbing on to Dave's arm and walking out. They could just be friends couldn't they? Of course they couldn't. But he missed her so damn much. He needed her in his life. In some way or capacity.

"Want to go back up to the room and get room service?" Heather suggested speaking her first words in a while.

Yeah. Just because I'm the one paying for it. "Yeah sure. Sounds good."

Heather smiled before reaching up to give him a quick kiss. Randy looked back at the hotel entrance as if Michelle would still be there. He sighed when he knew she wasn't. Hanging on to Heather's hand Randy lead them into the elevator.
