Abandoned Baby
Chapter 107
Previously...
"John's here..." Bless told Sam as she seen John's car up the driveway.
"Come on Bless. Let's go inside." Samantha suggested that they had to go inside since she needed to put Alanna down for her nap and Catherine needed her nap as well.
Bless knew she had to face the music one time or another whether she liked it or not and had to stop hiding.
"Hi honey." Samantha greeted her husband with a kiss after putting Alanna down on the couch.
"Hey baby. How was your day shopping?" He asked her.
"Pretty good day. Nothing to really complain about." She told him with a warm smile.
"Hey there Mrs. Orton. Nice seeing you again." John greeted her with his warm smile and dimples.
"Hey you. How are you?" Sam asked as he greeted her with open arms embracing her and giving her a kiss on the cheek.
"Pretty good. Just got home from shopping with a friend." She explained with a smile.
"Who's the friend you went out with?"He was curious to know as the door suddenly opened and he stood there with a shocked look on his face.
"Hi John..." Bless greeted him.
Present:
"Hi John." Bless greeted the Boston man.
"Bless, what are you doing here, where were you, you had us all worried sick looking all over for you." The Tampa native asked as he came up to hug her relieved just to see her.
"It's a long story but I'm here now is all that matters and Catherine is with me. She's napping in the livingroom in her playpen." She explained to John that she was just happy to be back with her daughter.
"I'm sorry I worried all of you. I just had to leave on my own but I'm home." She said hugging the tall man with a smile.
"I'm just happy to see you sweetie. It's been far too long and just happy to see you safe and sound." He sighed of relieve holding the girl close.
"I know. I...I didn't want to keep Catherine away from anybody plus I was pretty home sick and needed my friends to keep me grounded." The soon to be mom explained how happy she was just to be home with her loved one's.
"Just don't ever scare us like that ever again. Nearly worried everybody half to death including myself." John sighed relieved that Bless was home safe and sound.
"I promise."She swore hugging him close.
"How long have you been here by the way?" The Raw wrestler asked her.
"Just since yesterday. Sam and Randy said Catherine and I could stay here as long as we want just until I find myself settled somewhere where I could raise her and the baby." Bless explained what was happening with her situation and where she was going to live.
"Aren't you coming back to Tampa?" He asked her since he knew that's where she and Drew used to live together.
"To be honest John, I don't know...I don't know if I'm ready to go back home yet or face Drew. It's still hard to forget plus I don't want to put my baby in danger. I need time just until I have the baby." She said as she rubbed her stomach which was now getting bigger.
"Woah...how far apart are you already?" The Raw Superstar asked her as he saw how big her stomach had gotten.
"Nearly six months and this kid has been kicking me nonstop. It's like he or she is doing flip flops inside my stomach." She told him with a smile.
"You still don't know the sex of the baby?"He was curious to know.
"No...Drew and I promised each other before we weren't going to find out the sex of the baby until the end of the nine months. I still want to keep this baby a surprise." She explained that she wanted it that way and hoped either for a healthy baby boy or girl.
"You do know Drew deserves to be there for the birth of the baby and he will find out eventually you are here." The tall wrestler pointed out the obvious about the baby.
"Well thank you captain obvious. I plan on keeping the baby a secret from Drew and I don't want him there at the birth of my baby. It may be our baby together but for now it's MY baby. I'm gonna raise him or her the right way. I just don't want Drew around me or the children after he betrayed me by kissing another woman DRUNK. I'm doing great right now as a single parent and I could do it on MY own if I have too. We don't need him in our lives." Bless expressed how she felt about not wanting Drew in her lives including their children after the incident.
"Bless, don't you think you should give the guy another chance, after all ...all he did was make a mistake and wants you back." John tried reasoning out with her that she should give Drew another chance after that small incident back at the club and that was a mistake he seemed to regret and wanted his family back.
"I don't want to give him another chance John. He DOESN'T deserve it. Now if you'll excuse me." She glared at him angrily making her upset as she stormed out leaving the Orton's and John in her wake.
"Way to go John. You just upset her. I'm going after her." Sam glared at the superstar too as she made her way to go to Bless to comfort her.
"Man. Sometimes you need to learn to keep your mouth shut." Randy told his best friend sighing that he should leave things alone. This was Drew and Bless' mess to sort out and John felt like he needed to get in the middle of it which wasn't his business.
"I'm just trying to see it from Drew's side Randy. I've listened to Drew and he regrets everyday that mistake and wants to fix things to get his family back. You should see him backstage. He isn't himself anymore and keeps to himself most of the time. I feel bad for the kid and Bless is already ignoring him like a plague."
"Do you blame her, It's HIS fault everything triggered her leaving including Catherine and he HURT them. If it wasn't for his big ego and getting drunk and kissing another woman than maybe this wouldn't of happened. He hurt OUR best friend John and she is like a sister to US and we should've been protecting her and Cat. Why should we give him another chance as well when he's the one that messed everything up in the first place?" Randy retorted to his best friend that reason that it was Drew's fault that he hurt the love of his life and their daughter and didn't deserve a second chance with them or Bless.
"Gosh John, think with your head for once. We should be PROTECTING Bless and Catherine. They're OUR family. I don't want to see her get hurt. NOT again...Bless doesn't deserve it and anything happens to her, OUR niece, and OUR future niece or nephew, Drew's DEAD meat, I swear!" Randy yelled at John angrily as his eyes flared angrily and disappointed at Drew for hurting his family that he cared about so much. He didn't want to see HIS family get hurt if Drew messed up again and triggered Bless and Catherine to leave again.
"Her and Catherine leaving was the best thing ever just to get away from him and Drew deserved what happened. That was his karma but now that WE have her back, we should be the one's looking out for her and OUR family. I don't want to see her leave again John. If he thinks of wanting to see Bless and Cat, then he's got another thing coming." The Viper promised he would hurt Drew if he ever thought of hurting Bless, Catherine, and his future niece or nephew.
"If you tell a soul including Drew that Bless is here, I wouldn't b afraid to hurt you either. Capiche?" Randy told him bluntly.
"Yeah...I promise but I hope Bless knows what she's doing. I'm just looking out for her and Drew at the same time." John was just trying to look out for both of them since they were both his friends.
"I know you are John and right now is NOT the best time. Our main focus should just be on Bless,Catherine,and the baby right now. Drew can wait a little longer till she's ready to see him." His fellow Superstar told him things would work out on their own.
"Let them work this out on their own in the right time. Bless has been through so much and she needs US right now." He tried reasoning with the Boston man that eventually one day things would be back to normal but just not right now. She needed them and this was the only time they could be there for her,Catherine, and the unborn baby.
John sighed and nodded knowing Randy was sort of right about the situation.
"I think I'm gonna go see the kiddo is alright." He felt bad for hurting Bless and thought apologizing to her would be the best thing.
"Just keep things calm and don't add to her stress now that she's pregnant John." Randy warned him.
"I won't." John reassured leaving the room to go to the guest room knowing Bless was there with Sam.
He knocked softly on the door as he heard feet shuffling on the other side to see Sam.
"What?" Sam asked the Tampa native.
"Can I...see Bless...I need to talk to her and apologize." John requested scratching the back of his neck.
The brunette sighed and asked Bless if it was okay for the superstar to enter.
"It's fine Sam. Let him in." Bless sighed as she wiped away her tears.
"You upset her again, I'm sicking Randy on you." Samantha swore to the blonde haired man.
"I won't. I just need to talk to apologize to her." He promised as she left the room hoping the two would work things out as she went to tend to Alanna to put her upstairs for her nap.
"So...go ahead, talk." Bless said looking up at the Raw superstar.
"Bless, I'm sorry for upsetting you shorty. I didn't mean too. I'm just trying to look out for you and Drew since both of you are my friends and I guess a part of me just feels bad for Drew what he's going through." The superstar sat next to her and explained the situation.
"I know you are but I'm fine on my own. I just need some time apart from Drew right now. I'm also looking out for my best interest including my children. I don't want to subject them to getting hurt by Drew after what he did to me. Eventually I know Cat is going to find out sooner or later but she just has to accept why me and her daddy don't get along anymore or don't love each other. It's going to be tough for myself,Catherine,and this baby but we're gonna try our best to move on without Drew. We don't need him when my children have me. I'm going to explain the situation with Cat when she gets a little older but right now is not the best time since she's still too young to understand." Bless sniffled explaining how she was going to move on with the children without Drew's help at all.
"Bless, you know you still love Drew and he's head over heels for you. He made one tiny mistake and you're already turning your back on him. At least give him some credit to come clean and apologize for that mistake. He misses you everyday including the children and you should see him miserable backstage and sulks backstage all the time nor goes out with us boys anymore and coops himself in the hotel or at home looking through pictures of you two and Cat. All he talks is about you,Cat,and the baby non-stop." John told her that Drew was thinking about her and the children.
"He does?" Bless asked curiously.
"He does. He misses you and the kids. I think you should talk to him." John sighed telling Bless the truth about Drew and how he felt for her.
"I will when the time is right." Bless sighed telling her fellow friend she would talk to the Scot when she was fully ready.
"Alright, I won't push you but one day you'll have to confront Drew." John half smiled and hugged her.
"Thanks. I needed a hug." Bless appreciated John's embrace.
"No prob shorty. I'm sure Sam and Rand are wondering what happened to us so I guess we better go see them." The former rapper suggested.
"Yeah I guess so." She agreed as they walked out of the room to see Sam and Randy talking with each other.
"Hey. How did the talk go?" Randy asked seeing the two civilized.
"Fine. Everything went okay and we're okay with each other." John squeezed the pregnant woman next to him joining their friends.
"Good to hear. Any way we're gonna have dinner soon so John do you want to join us?" The Viper suggested to his best friend.
"Sure if you want me too." His fellow superstar shrugged agreeing.
"Bless, do you want to come and help me put some stuff on the table?" Sam asked if the pregnant woman wanted to help her.
"Sure I can help." Bless didn't mind helping the brunette putting some food on the table and set up before they all ate.
