Abandoned Baby
Chapter 110
When the guys got home, they were happy to see Sam, Bless, and Catherine.
"Hey welcome home." They greeted the guys.
"How was the travel to the house?" Bless asked Randy.
"Pretty good and tiring at the same time. I made a story up to Stu that I was staying with John and Liz to get your stuff and he totally bought it. I have most all of yours and Catherine's belongings in the back that you could possibly need and the rest we could keep in in the attic if you want if you don't plan on using them for the mean time." Randy explained what they did as he kissed his wife and daughter before kissing Bless on the cheek hello.
"I can sort through some stuff when we get inside and get everything situated. Any way how are Stu and the guys?" She wondered how they were doing since she missed them.
"They're on the road again going to Philly from what Stu told me. Drew wouldn't go out with the guys. I think he's depressed and missing you and Cat and the baby. Bless, do you think you should stop this hiding charade and sort things out with Drew before this gets out of hand?" The Viper asked her if they should fix things between them instead of her hiding from her ex.
"Why should I Randy, He's the ONE that kissed a random girl and he was DRUNK. He hurt me and I don't know how to fix it." Bless still felt bitter that Drew would betray her and cheat on her. She felt cheated on and she trusted him and she felt her trust had been broken.
"I love him...He promised me forever and this happens. I just don't want to talk to him yet nor ready to face him." Bless sniffled trying to keep her tears at bay and she felt her heart shatter again reliving that night Stu called her to tell her what happened with Drew.
"Randy, Bless is right. You can't fix things between them right now. Let Bless figure this out on her own. She's been hurt enough and she needs us." Samantha defended Bless' private space and felt the need to protect her best friend.
"I'm sorry for making you cry again baby girl. I just hate to see two of my friends hurting and especially yourself. Come here." The Viper out stretched his arms for her as she walked into them and cried upon his shoulder.
"I'm sorry sweetheart. I really am." He apologized to her softly stroking her hair as he felt her tears seep into his skin from his wet t-shirt.
"I just don't want to get hurt again. I still love him...I just need more time in able to forgive him." Bless sniffled holding onto her best friend.
"I know sweetheart. Everything is going to be okay." He whispered kissing her head softly as he embraced her close.
"I just wish I knew how to talk to Drew and I don't want anything happening to our baby if we end up confronting each other. It'd be too soon and I just want protect my baby." She told him about her unborn baby how she wanted to protect him or her.
After unpacking Bless' things from Randy's car, she started to sort through some stuff to see what things she wanted to keep downstairs in the room and what other things she could keep up in the attic for the mean time just until she could find her own place to stay once she moved back to Florida again but just in another location not close to Tampa for sure the guys and Drew would find her.
Only Randy and John were her closest contacts including Samantha so they wouldn't tattle on her where her whereabouts were till things settled down after the move.
Bless was still keeping her name under a name alias that way she wouldn't be found and as if she were still gone but only Randy,Sam,and John knew what was going on till she found the right time to confront the rest of the road family.
"Bless, lunch will be ready soon. Are you hungry?" Sam asked coming into the bedroom to see Catherine was on the bed sucking on her pacifier while watching cartoons contently while her mom was sitting on the floor fixing and sorting through the boxes Randy and John brought in.
"Yeah sure. Baby, you want to come with mommy and Aunt Sam to go eat?" Bless turned to Catherine on the bed as Catherine squeaked against her binky with a big smile out stretching her arms for her to hold her.
"Honey,soon mommy has to stop carrying you since mommy's stomach is getting bigger with the baby that means you have to walk now okay?" Her mom suggested to her as she tilted up her daughter's chin gently.
"Otay momma." Catherine understood her as she climbed up on her mommy's arms carrying the small child before turning off the tv as Sam smiled at the interaction between daughter and mother.
She could see Bless was a great mother to her daughter and reminded her of her and Alanna.
"Come on baby. Let's go eat." Bless smiled at her baby girl as the trio walked out to the dining room where Randy was sitting Alanna in her chair.
"Honey, do you want to sit next to Lanna?" The young mom asked her daughter.
"Yeah." Catherine mumbled against her binky as Bless sat her daughter with the three year old.
"Here honey, give me your binky that way I can feed you your food." Her mom instructed her as Catherine took out the pacifier out of her mouth to give it to her mom to wash out.
Bless walked into the kitchen to see Sam was almost done making lunch for all of them.
She walked over to the sink and started washing out Cat's binky before putting it away.
"Need some help?" The raven haired mom asked her friend.
"I got it thanks." Sam reassured she was okay as she was about to turn off the stove.
"You go sit down and relax sweetie. I got things here." The brunette was okay with doing things on her own and wanted Bless to rest since she was pregnant.
The soon to be mom walked out to the dining room with the guys sitting down with the kids as she sat down next to her daughter.
As soon as Sam got done with lunch, Randy decided to help her set up the table and everything else they were going to eat.
Sam had made mac and cheese for the kids while they had lasagna, salad, garlic bread, fish, and carrot cake for dessert.
"Mmmmm...all this looks great." John spoke up with a smile.
"Well thank you John. That's sweet of you to say." Sam smiled at the Raw wrestler as she put the food on the table.
"John is right. This looks great." Bless added in her two cents.
"You're so sweet." The brunette gushed at the sweet comments from her friends.
"The two are right baby. Everything looks great and we made a great team setting everything up." Randy added kissing his wife.
"We sure do." His wife agreed as he hugged her close.
"Mommy, I want juice." Alanna told her mommy.
"I'll get it sweetie pie." Randy let Alanna know standing up from his seat to go get her something to drink.
"Baby, make sure you finish all your food." Bless let Catherine know as she fed her.
"Otay momma." The little girl obeyed her mom like a good girl as Bless sat the toddler on her lap feeding her.
Once the girls were fed, they went off to play with each other in the living room while watching cartoons while the adults had their time to eat dinner.
After dinner time, they knew it was time to put the girls down to sleep.
"Honey, can you do mommy a favor and get your jammies, undies, towel, a face cloth, and toothbrush and toothpaste that way you can get ready for bed?" Bless instructed her daughter what she would need.
"Yeah."The little girl knew what to get as she toddled back to the room to get what her mother asked her too.
"Good girl." Her mother smiled kissing her forehead as they walked to the counter as Bless put Catherine's stuff down on the counter before stripping the little girls diaper and old pajamas off before turning on the water and putting Catherine's favorite bubbles in the water.
"In you go kiddo."
Bless reached for Cat and put her in the water and gave Cat her toys to keep her contended while washing her hair as the little girl splashed around.
Bless giggled as the baby splashed around and had fun.
A few minutes later John walked in and stood at the door frame watching them. They just looked so happy and content and Catherine didn't have a care in the world as long as her mom was there with her.
"Hey you two." The Tampa native greeted them with his dimpled smile.
"Hey John. I thought you went to bed." Bless spoke up when she seen the Raw wrestler at the door.
"Couldn't really sleep. I heard you and Cat and thought of checking up on you two."
"That's sweet of you John."
"Couldn't hurt to check up on my favorite girl and my favorite munchkin." He shrugged as he watched Catherine splash around and giggle like any normal child while Bless was shampooing her hair.
"So...when is the move back to Florida?"The former champion was curious.
"Maybe in two weeks time. I found a few houses that I want to see so we'll see once we enter that hurdle and once Cat and I are settled in, we should be good to go from there and start our new life together." Bless explained when the move was and what she was planning to do.
"What about Drew and the guys, you do know they'll find out eventually you and Catherine are back. There won't be stopping Drew from finding out himself you know." John speculated that Drew would do anything to find her and Catherine.
"Let him know then. I'm not hard to find if the guy wants to apologize to me or not." Bless sarcastically mentioned as John brought up the subject of Drew which she didn't want to hear about though John was sort of right that Drew would do anything to find them but that didn't mean he would really find them if she had a new alias and went incognito that he wouldn't recognize her.
"Bless, when are you going to stop this charade and stop hiding from him?" John asked her.
"John, I love you and all but I don't even care about Drew right now. I don't even want you mentioning his name around me or the baby. We're totally fine without him."
"Bless, the guy is sorry and made a mistake and he's worried about you, Cat, and the unborn baby. I think you should make it up to him to apologize. I mean after all Drew too is my friend too and hate to see him suffer. He really wants you back."
"If he wants me back then he has to be the one to crawl on his hands and knees for forgiveness other than that I don't even care. He can suffer all he wants. I'm fine without him and I'm sure Cat would be fine without her father too. I'm taking full responsibility of the children thank you very much and all by myself too. Now if you excuse me, I have a little girl to put to bed."
"Bless, I think you should hear Drew out..."John tried reasoning out with her.
"John, I'm NOT having this conversation with you right now. Just go to bed." Bless told him with a sigh since she was tired of hearing about Drew and all she wanted was to be left alone.
John sighed as he made his way out of the room to see Randy as he was just turning on the security alarm before going to bed.
"What's crawled up your ass all of a sudden?" Randy asked as he saw his best friend not in a good mood.
"Why don't you ask your best friend Bless, she's acting all high and mighty whenever I mention about Drew and she's ignoring Drew like a plague when the guy is sorry and it's not like she cares anymore. Those two were so tight like you couldn't break them apart and she got sarcastic on me when all I told her is maybe she should be the one to stop playing charades and talk to the guy." John sighed as he sat on the couch.
"Well, do you blame her after what he did, I wouldn't give exactly give the guy a second chance either after he broke her heart. I hope you didn't upset her because if you did, I promised I wouldn't be afraid to hurt you if you hurt that girl in there including our beautiful niece." The Viper warned his best friend about upsetting Bless and Catherine.
"I think I did upset her again because I'm looking out for her and Drew at the same time. Drew's my friend too and I think he's suffered enough Randy. I think it's time for Bless to stop hiding from him and talk to him once and for all. I hate it she's hurting Catherine and their unborn baby by hiding them too and isn't doing any good for them." John told him how he felt she was hurting the kids by not letting them see their father.
"You know Bless is doing a great thing for the kids. She's looking out for her best interest including the kids. If I were her, I wouldn't want to be near Drew either. He deserves that karma and look what she's doing and raising Cat by herself and I'm sure she's going to do a great job with the second baby once he or she gets here in a few months. When Bless does come to her senses and the time is right, she'll talk with Drew. I just don't want to see her get hurt again and run off again if something happens between them. Give her some time alright and stop bugging her so much about Drew. You're only going to make things worse. I know you love her and I do too and we gotta be the one's to look out for them. They're our family. If Drew wants be be the bigger man then he has to realize he put this all on himself and apologize to Bless and the kids not the other way around. For now please John leave the subject of Drew alone alright, this won't do any good for Bless and the babies if you stress her out. They'll work things out eventually. All we can do is be there to support them." Randy sighed telling John to leave things to Drew and Bless to work things out and for him to not get involved.
"Ugh...fine whatever you say Randy." John groaned listening to his best friends advice.
"I mean it John. Leave Bless alone and stop meddling in her affairs. She doesn't need the stress right now." Randy warned him a second time to leave things alone and let the couple work things out on their own.
"Good night John." Randy told John as he was heading up to bed to check on Bless and Catherine before checking on Alanna and joining Sam in bed.
"Night." John sighed as he watched his friend ascend the stair case.
After Bless gave Catherine her bath, she gave Cat her bottle she had made earlier and gave the toddler her stuffed puppy after laying the sleeping child on the bed and covering her up.
"I love you baby." Bless sniffled softly as she stroked her daughter's hair.
"I'm sorry anak (Child)...I'm just trying to protect you from daddy. Mommy doesn't know if she should daddy a second chance. Mommy doesn't want to get hurt and I don't want to see you get hurt either." The soon to be mom sniffled as she tried to fight her tears back as she watched her angelic daughter sleep.
"Hey...you okay?" A familiar voice asked as Bless turned around to see Randy.
"Oh hey." Bless greeted him as she wiped away her tears.
"Hey now. Don't cry baby girl. I'm sorry about John back there. Right now he's being a jerk and shouldn't be meddling in your affair. This is between you and Drew." Randy apologized for Bless after what John did ton confront her in an awkward situation.
"Don't be. I...Rand, am I really doing the right thing, I mean is John right that I should stop hiding and just talk to Drew myself or what...My mind says I should but my heart is telling me another thing. I don't want to be a bad mother and keep the kids away from him..."Bless sniffled not knowing what to do as he embraced her close feeling so bad wishing he could take her pain away.
"Baby girl, don't rush it plus don't stress yourself out. It isn't good for you and the baby right now. You need to relax and forget Drew for a while. When you feel the time is right to confront Drew, talk to him. Right now your priority should be taking care of yourself, Cat,and the baby."
"I feel like a really bad mother keeping the kids away from Drew. It breaks my heart whenever I see Catherine cry or ask for him." Bless started to cry as she looked at her sleeping daughter before looking at the baby blue eyed man who sat beside her.
"Hey, I don't want to hear that kind of talk. You're doing a great job raising Cat and the baby by yourself and I know you're looking our for your best interest including the kids. You got me and Sam to help you if you need anything and I do mean anything because we care for you, Cat, and the unborn baby in there. You're just going through a tough time right now but you will pass that hurdle and get through everything sweetie. It'll take one day at a time. Just don't let this get the best of you okay, everything will work itself out." Randy comforted Bless as he cupped her face and wiped away her tears with his thumbs.
"Thanks Randy. I really needed to hear that." The sixth month pregnant girl sniffled a little embracing him.
"It's no problem baby girl. Now why don't you try and get some shut eye and we'll talk more in the morning. Right now you need your rest." Randy knew Bless had to be tired after a long day.
"Okay. Good night Rands. I love you." Bless smiled a little kissing his cheek and embracing him.
"Love you too kiddo. Good night." The tattooed Viper smiled embracing Bless before kissing Catherine on her forehead as he walked out of the room.
The sixth month pregnant woman sighed as she laid in bed wrapping an arm around her baby daughter kissing her cheek before she let sleep take over her.
