Roman felt sick again. He stood under the hot water, crying. He kept giving in to Valerie because he felt terrible for denying her. He promised himself to give her the best few days he could before ending it.
"Roman? Are you still in the shower?", Valerie called.
They were getting ready to head out to dinner.
"Almost done", he called.
He turned off the water and grabbed the towel. Drying himself inside the stall, before drying his hair. He stepped out and into the room. Valerie was fixing her makeup. She was already dressed.
"I can't believe I'm actually done before you", she said, smiling in the mirror.
He nodded. He got dressed quickly, before putting his hair into a bun. Valerie walked up to him and kissed him.
"I love you", she said.
He couldn't reply with those same words, so he kissed her. She didn't miss it.
"We should go", he said, before walking passed her.
She nodded and followed him.
Dean and Nikki had finished eating and had rented a movie on their tv. They were cuddled up on the couch. His arms wrapped around her tight.
"When do you have to leave?", he asked.
"I'm yours till Monday", she said, smiling.
"Should I get use to this? I'm getting comfortable here and I need...", she kissed him.
He smiled against her lips.
"Don't think okay. Just be here, with me", she said softly.
He nodded.
"So, if say, I were to have a girlfriend, would you be okay with that?", he asked.
She sat up more.
"What?", she asked.
"You have John, why can't I have a woman", he said.
"So then this isn't going somewhere? This is just an affair?", she asked.
"Of course not, but do you really expect me to sit here and wait till you don't have John for the weekend to see you", he said.
She sighed.
"John's in Florida. He's preparing for WrestleMania", she said.
"He does know WrestleMania is still a month away right?", Dean asked.
Nikki nodded.
"Does he do this often around holidays?", he asked.
"Sometimes", she said softly.
He was angry at John now. He had her and he choose to stay away from her.
"I would never do that to you, ever.", he said.
She smiled and took his hand in hers.
"I know. That's why I came to you", she said.
He kissed her.
Roman was sitting across from Valerie. She was looking over her menu.
"Can I start you two off with something to drink?", their waiter asked.
"I'll take a glass of red wine. Val want some?", he asked.
"I actually can't drink", she said.
He looked at her confused. She ordered a water for herself. The waiter left and she looked at Roman. Smiling.
"I guess I should fill you in on your second surprise", she said.
He sat quietly and waited.
"I'm pregnant, Roman", she said, smiling.
Roman felt like his heart was going to jump out of his chest. This couldn't be happening.
"What?", he asked.
"We're having a baby", she said.
He sat up more.
"No, this, no", he said quickly.
"Well, I have to do a test but I'm sure I am", she said.
He calmed down just a bit.
"You can't just drop a bomb like that Val. Not unless you are absolutely sure", he said angry.
"I thought you would be happy. We always talked about a second child, we said we would wait till a little more money was coming in and now that it is, well", she said.
He sighed.
"We'll have to postpone the wedding but it's okay, a second baby is so much better", Valerie said.
Roman swallowed.
"We don't even know for sure if you are pregnant. Don't get ahead of yourself Val", Roman said.
"Why don't you sound happy?", she asked.
He opened his mouth to answer her, when his phone rang. He pulled it out and saw that it was Hunter calling.
"I have to get this", he said.
She nodded. He stood and walked towards the bathroom hall.
"Hello", he answered.
"Hey, I know I gave you and the guys off this weekend, but we added a last minute match. John Cena asked for it for some reason. So pack your bags and get your butts to New Orleans", he said.
"We have a match?", Roman asked excited.
He and the guys were beginning to think their time was up.
"Yes. I've already informed Seth, but I'm having a hard time getting in contact with Ambrose", he said.
"I'm here in Vegas with him, I'll let him know", he said.
"Okay good, see you this Sunday", Hunter said, before hanging up.
Roman quickly dialed Amaya's number. She answered, sounding half asleep. Time difference, he had forgotten.
"Hello", she answered.
"Baby, I'm sorry I woke you, but guess what", he said.
"It's okay. What's up?", she asked.
"We have a match at Elimination Chamber and I know we had that trip planned...", she stopped him.
"No, it's okay, this is great. How exciting and you were worried they had forgotten about you guys", she said.
He smiled.
"John actually requested it", Roman said.
"Really?", she asked.
"Why does it sound like it's completely shocking to you", he said.
"Its just, when John requests a match it's because one of you did something to piss him off. Its sort of like a punishment", she said.
"You don't think he knows about Dean and Nikki, do you?", he asked.
"That could be it. Unless Seth did something, but my money is on Dean", she said.
"Mine too", he said.
He sighed and rubbed his eyes.
"Well, I'll let you get back to sleep and that trip to Hawaii is still on. Right after SmackDown, we are flying straight there. Promise", he said.
She smiled.
"Sounds like a good plan. I love you", she said.
"I love you too", he replied.
He didn't want to worry her about the possible baby till he knew for sure that Valerie was in fact pregnant. Even if she was, he wasn't giving up Amaya. He tried that once and he couldn't do it. He had to be more careful when it came to Valerie.
Dean had heard his phone ring a few times, but he was too busy making sure Nikki was completely satisfied. Her phone rang too. She tried to reach for it, but he pushed it off the nightstand and it fell to the floor.
"Dean", she moaned.
"You're mine right now, no interruptions", he groaned.
After they both came down. Each reached for their phones. She had a missed called from John and he had two, one from Hunter and the other from Roman. He decided on calling Roman first.
"Hey, finally", Roman said as he answered his phone.
"Yeah, sorry, I was a little busy", Dean said.
"I bet. Anyway, Hunter called, it looks like we have a match this Sunday. John requested it", Roman said.
"You did what?", Nikki asked whoever she was on the phone with her.
"Why us?", Dean asked.
"According to Amaya, he doesn't request a match unless someone pissed him off.", Roman said.
"You think he knows?", Dean asked.
"Amaya and I think so", Roman said.
Dean sighed.
"Alright, I'll talk to you later", Dean said.
He hung up with Roman and looked at Nikki. She was getting dressed.
"What's going on?", he asked, standing.
"I have to go", she said.
"Why? Did he say something to you?", Dean asked.
She stopped and faced him.
"I told him that I was going to see my mom in Arizona. He's flying out there later today. I have to be there before him.", she said.
He nodded. She went over to him and kissed him passionately. They both felt sparks all over.
"I love you", he whispered.
She met his eyes.
"I love you", she replied.
"Text me when you get there so I know you're safe", he said.
She nodded. She grabbed her bags before leaving. Stopping at the door, she grabbed her roses and sent him one last smile.
