Throughout the whole trip, Valerie kept talking about the baby. Asking him to come up with names and hoping it was a boy this time. All Roman could think about was Amaya. He knew that once he told her, she would break up with him again. If she did that he would pack his bags and show up at her door. He would sleep in front of it till she let him in.
"Are you excited?", Valerie asked, as they got to New Orleans.
"Yeah, it's a pay per view match, of course I'm excited", Roman said.
"Not about your match, about the baby", she said.
Roman sighed. He had to remind himself that this was still his child, if there was one. He would love this baby no matter what. He would be there for him or her like he would be there for Autumn.
"Of course I'm excited. This is my child", Roman said.
Valerie smiled.
"I can't wait to tell all the girls. Naomi asked me last time when I was getting pregnant again", Valerie said.
"No", he shouted.
Valerie jumped a bit at his loud tone.
"Its just, you don't even know if you are yet. Don't get your hopes up", Roman said.
She nodded.
"True", she sighed.
Amaya and AJ didn't have a match, but came to support Punk. Also AJ had to walk out with Dolph.
"I hate that they keep sticking me with men instead of giving me a chance at the Divas title.", April said.
"I thought you and Dolph were friends", Amaya said, watching her sister put her Converse on.
"We are, but I would like my own storyline, without a man attached to it. Now they have you with The Shield. It's like they think we can't make a name for ourselves without a man's name attached to us", April said.
"I am woman, hear me roar", Amaya said.
April glared at her little sister and Amaya laughed.
"Sorry. I get what you're saying and you will have your chance April, it might not be now but you'll get it", Amaya said.
April nodded. Kaitlyn walked in and hugged them.
"Oh, Yaya, Hunter is looking for you", she said.
Amaya nodded and walked out. Finding Hunter's office and knocking. The Shield joined her, Roman's tall frame behind her. Feeling his fingers on her hips.
"Hey babe", he said.
She smiled. He could call her babe in front of Seth and Dean, because they each had a nickname for her.
"What do you think this is about?", Seth asked, fixing his vest.
"Not sure if I'm here", Amaya said.
The door opened and Hunter smiled. John, Ryback, and Sheamus were already inside.
"Come on in", Hunter said.
They did.
"I know you guys had this weekend off, but it was a last minute match we needed to add. John said it would be a good idea for you guys", Hunter said.
"A match that they're going to have to lose right?", Amaya asked.
She hadn't known John Cena that long, but Punk had filled her in on the way John works.
"Of course, John, Ryback, and Sheamus will be the Hero team", Hunter said.
"The fans seem taken with The Shield, even as bad guys. Why can't they win?", Amaya asked.
Hunter seemed to be thinking about it.
"I mean, I am their like manager right. They helped me against my match with AJ. Dolph and Big E helped my sister. Why can't I help them win?", Amaya said.
"You make a good point", Hunter said, nodding.
"But we've already come up with the match. We can't just change it last second", John said standing, hands on his hips.
"Why not? You added a whole match last minute", Amaya said.
"She makes a good point", Vince said, walking into the room.
John rolled his eyes.
"I like this idea of Amaya going out there and helping out The Shield. The fans won't be expecting it.", Vince said.
"Great. If this meeting is over with, I need to go get ready", John said.
Vince and Hunter nodded. John glanced at Dean before rolling his eyes and walking out.
"Now that we've settled this match. Amaya, we need to discuss your next title run", Vince said.
"Really?", Amaya said excited.
Vince nodded.
"Kaitlyn is doing a fantastic job, but the fans don't seem taken with her the way they were with you", Vince said.
Seth nudged Amaya.
"It will be you and Kaitlyn in a feud starting Monday", Vince said.
Amaya smiled, but remembered her sister.
"Can I make a suggestion?", she asked.
"Your ideas haven't been bad so far. Go for it", Vince said.
"Add my sister to it. She and I have been going back and forth right now. I attack Kaitlyn and AJ attacks me", Amaya said.
Vince nodded.
"Let me talk to the writers and if they agree, it's a go", Vince said.
Amaya nodded. She walked out of the office with The Shield.
"You made a point about Cena. I think he knows", Dean whispered to her.
"I saw the look too", she whispered back.
"I should go find Nikki, try to talk to her", Dean said.
Amaya nodded. Dean left towards catering. Seth was fixing his gloves.
"Baby", Roman sighed.
Valerie came over and wrapped her arms around his neck. Kissing his cheek.
"Good luck tonight. I'm going to find my seat and your parents.", Valerie said.
Roman nodded. Amaya looked away from them, she couldn't take it.
"Did they bring Autumn?", Roman asked.
Valerie nodded.
"See if my dad can bring her to me. There's someone I want to introduce to her", Roman said, smiling.
Amaya blushed. She knew he meant her. Valerie's smile fell.
"Who?", she asked.
"You know what, I'll go get her", Roman said.
He left them and Valerie turned to look at her. She was in conversation with Seth.
"Maya", Valerie said.
Amaya looked at her and plastered a fake smile on her face.
"Hey, Valerie. Its nice to see you again", Amaya said.
"Yeah", Valerie said.
Amaya put her attention back on Seth.
"How was your Valentine's Day Seth?", Amaya asked him.
Maybe Valerie would get a clue and walk away.
"Fantastic, Brie loved it. We are already planning to go back", Seth said.
"My Valentine's Day was great too. I mean it was mostly spent in the hotel room, but hey, when my man wants me", Valerie said.
Amaya's blood was boiling. Seth was completely uncomfortable with this conversation.
"Can I tell you guys a secret?", Valerie asked.
Before either Amaya or Seth could tell her no.
"I think I might be pregnant. I actually knew before Valentine's Day. Roman wants to wait till we get home to find out.", Valerie said, smiling.
Amaya's heart almost stopped.
"That's great. If you are congrats", Seth said, completely oblivious to Amaya and her feelings.
It wasn't his fault, he didn't know about her and Roman.
"Yeah, congrats", Amaya said softly.
Valerie knew she hurt Amaya and she was okay with that. She shouldn't have thought that she could take Roman.
"But don't tell Roman I told you guys okay. He doesn't want to get his hopes up and excited till we know. He really wants another baby and he kept asking", Valerie said.
"Roman's a great dad. Autumn is a sweet little girl", Seth said.
"Excuse me, I should go find my sister and fill her in on the idea Vince agreed on", Amaya said.
She needed to get away from Valerie. Amaya knew she had no right to be angry at the woman. She was still his fiancée and the mother of his child. Maybe her past kept Roman from wanting a family with her.
Would she have to settle for being just a step mom? Amaya stopped a hall away from the Divas locker room.
Roman was going to leave her. If Valerie was pregnant, that was it. It was over. Amaya couldn't compete with a brand new baby and she wouldn't let him abandon his family. She didn't want his baby thinking he or she wasn't wanted by their father.
"Amaya", she turned at the sound of Roman's voice calling her.
She smiled. He held his daughter in his arms and she saw the way he looked at his baby girl.
"Autumn, this is daddy's best friend, Amaya", Roman said, introducing them.
Amaya smiled at the little girl.
"Hi sweetie. Its so nice to meet you, your daddy talks about you all the time. He loves you so much", Amaya said.
The little girl smiled.
"Daddy talks about you too. He said you're a nice person. You're my favorite wrestler", Autumn said.
"She's my favorite too", Roman said.
Amaya smiled.
"Autumn", they all turned to see Valerie.
"The shows about to start, we should go take our seats", Valerie said.
Autumn hugged Amaya before going over to her mom. Valerie glared at Roman and Amaya before following the security to her seats. Valerie needed to go the extra mile. She knew she wasn't pregnant, but his parents didn't know that. Just like they didn't know their son was cheating on her. She needed proof and she was going to get it.
He locked his phone now, so if she was going to try to unlock it, it has to be when he was asleep.
"Is he nervous?", his mom asked her.
She smiled.
"Yeah, but once he hits that ring he'll be okay", Valerie said.
