Payback 2016-

Amaya had stayed at Roman's till morning and left him a note explaining that she went back to New Jersey to think. Malia hadn't seen her and she was happy about that. She would want to leave with her and Amaya wasn't going to mess up their time together.

It was Payback tonight and it was mandatory to show up. She removed the engagement ring from her finger and placed it in the tiny box in her purse. Finn would be here tonight with a few other NXT talent. She was nervous about seeing him.

"Amaya", she turned to see Dean with Nikki.

She stopped and waited for them to catch up.

"Hey you two", Amaya smiled.

"Have you spoken to Finn?", Dean asked angry.

She sighed.

"Did Roman tell you?", she asked.

"No, Seth did", Dean said honestly.

He couldn't lie to her. He thought about it, but thought it was better to be honest. She had enough people lying to her.

"Seth?", Amaya asked.

"He overheard Finn and Cathy talking. Told Finn that if he didn't tell you by tomorrow, he would", Nikki explained.

"That's the only reason he told me. If Seth wouldn't have overheard", Amaya shook her head in disbelief.

Then she realized Nikki said the woman's name. She met Dean's eyes.

"Cathy? As in Cathy Kelley?", Amaya asked.

Dean's mouth opened to answer, but didn't say anything. Nikki nodded.

"No wonder she was acting so weird during my interview", Amaya said.

Roman walked into the arena with his baby girl in one arm. His parents were back at the hotel still. Fans were lined up ready to take pictures of superstars who walked passed. He looked at Malia, that would scare her for sure.

He stopped and set her down. Taking his sweater out of his bag and putting it on her. It fit her huge, but it would do to hide her little face from the cameras and crowd. After he carried her out during his WrestleMania exit, she hid her face from everyone. He learned his lesson about big crowds around his kids.

"Ok baby girl, ready?", he asked.

She nodded. He lifted her and walked passed. Fans taking pictures of him and yelling for him. He felt Malia squeeze his shirt in her hands and he tightened his grip on her.

"I've got you baby", he whispered to her.

Once inside, she lifted her head and removed the hood. He kissed her cheek.

"Lets go find mommy", he said.

He dropped his things off in the locker room before making his way down the hall towards catering.

"Finn", Malia said excitedly.

Roman didn't like how excited his child got when she saw his enemy. The only reason Amaya was not with him now. Then he remembered what Amaya told him. Finn smiled at Malia. He reached for her and Roman let him take her.

"You are so lucky she's here", Roman said with a smile.

Finn looked at him confused and then realized either Seth told him or Amaya did.

"That's none of your business. What's going on is between me and my girl. Your only concern is this little lady. We agreed", Finn said.

Roman balled his hands into fists.

"My concern is also the mother of my child. The same one who showed up at my door in the middle of the night, crying about you", Roman said.

Roman could tell his baby felt the tension. He relaxed and smiled at her, gently touching her cheek. She returned the smile. She held her arms out to him and Roman took her back.

"Well, it's my business. I don't want to talk about it with you", Finn said.

Roman nodded.

"That's fine, just don't get mad at her when you find out she showed up at my place again and I sleep with her. I've denied her more than once, I won't do it again.", Roman warned.

Finn glared at him.

"Touch her and", Roman stopped him.

"My child is here, watch your language", Roman said calmly.

That pissed Finn off more. Someone cleared their throat and both men turned. Amaya looked between them.

"My child", Amaya said.

Malia saw her and smiled.

"Mommy", she said.

Amaya took her from Roman and kissed her cheek.

"I missed you my baby. Uncle Phil is so excited to see you", Amaya said to her, ignoring both men.

"Yaya", Finn started.

She turned to walk away.

"Continue measuring your dicks. Don't mind us", Amaya said.

Roman smirked and Finn sighed. Dean turned the corner and Roman recognized the wild look in his eyes.

"You", Dean shouted and pointed a finger at Finn.

Roman took a few steps away and let Dean get in Finn's face. Dean poked Finn on his chest.

"You will stay away from Amaya and Malia. If I find out from anyone that you went near them, I will kick your ass. Big man won't even be able to stop me.", Dean said in Finn's face.

Finn pushed Dean's hand away from him.

"Don't threaten me Ambrose", Finn said.

"Oh this isn't a threat, it's a fucking promise.", Dean said, before stomping away.

Roman looked at Finn.

"You send your friends after me since you can't do anything.", Finn said.

Roman held his hands up.

"Dean does what he wants. He loves Amaya like a sister, it's been that way from the second he met her. Malia is connected to Amaya and I, he's her uncle", Roman explained.

Finn mumbled something Roman didn't hear and walked away. Roman sighed.

Amaya was sitting in catering with Sasha, Brie, and Becky. Dean was chasing Malia around. Roman's match was on and Amaya had her full attention on it.

"Amaya, I've been wanting to ask you something", Brie started.

Amaya looked over at her.

"Would you be a bridesmaid?", Brie asked.

Amaya smiled.

"I'd love to be one", Amaya said.

"I was also wondering if Malia could be our flower girl." Brie said.

She had a notebook out and was writing things down. Sasha was looking it over.

"You've got everything planned out", Sasha said.

Brie nodded.

"I have Seth at home looking through wedding invites and fonts. Also venues", Brie said.

"At least he's helping, some men don't care and leave her to do it all", Becky said.

Amaya nodded.

"Seth actually suggested it. He's getting tired of just staying home. He can't work out fully yet and he's going crazy, so he told me to give him half the load of this wedding.", Brie said.

"He better help you. I would have flown to Iowa and dragged him by his ear", Amaya said.

The girls laughed. Finn walked into catering and Dean stopped chasing Malia. He was breathing heavy and placed his hands on his hips.

"I need to talk to my girl, because yes Dean, she is still my girl till she tells me its over", Finn said.

Malia ran over and hugged Dean's leg.

"Uncle Dean, chase me", Malia giggled.

Dean placed his hand on her head gently.

"I'm coming princess", Dean said.

Dean let Finn pass and Amaya looked up at him once he approached.

"We need to talk love", Finn said.

Amaya kept her eyes on the screen. The girls looked between them and then at each other. Brie knew why Amaya was ignoring Finn. Finn bent down to be level with Amaya. She looked at him.

"Please love, just a second of your time", he said softly.

Amaya sighed.

"Wait till Roman's match is over", Amaya said.

Finn didn't like that, but nodded. Once they announced Roman as the winner, Amaya stood and walked over to Dean. Finn followed behind her. Dean held Malia in his arms.

"She's a handful huh", Amaya said.

Dean chuckled.

"Nikki says I have the energy of a child, so I'm in good company with this kid", Dean said.

"That's good to know, now I know who to call when I need a few minutes to myself", Amaya said.

"You know I'll always have your back", Dean said.

His eyes found Finn.

"We are going to talk. Mind watching my kid for me? Take her to her dad for right now?", Amaya asked.

Dean nodded while glaring at Finn.

"I can do that for you", Dean said, before walking passed her.

Finn followed her to an empty room.

"Why didn't you tell me it was Cathy Kelley?", she asked.

"Who told you?", he asked.

"That's not your problem right now. Right now I need to know if that's true.", she said.

He nodded. She shook her head in disbelief.

"You knew I had an interview with her and you let me go and", she couldn't even finish that sentence.

"I know", he said softly.

"When were you going to tell me that Seth knew and that if it wasn't for him, you wouldn't have told me?", she asked.

I was going to tell you, whether he knew or not", he said.

"When? After we got married? After we had kids? On your death bed? When?", Amaya yelled.

"I was going to tell you before I proposed. I wanted to tell you right after it happened but I was scared. I didn't want to lose you", Finn said.

"And what exactly do you think is going to happen now?", she asked.

"I won't stop you from leaving me. The only thing I will ask is that you take time and think about giving me a second chance. Let me make this right.", he said.

She placed her hands on her hips.

"Was it only that one time?", she asked.

He nodded.

"Just that once", he said.

She nodded. Remembering what Roman said to her. She needed to think and truly open herself back up to realize what she really wanted and not be afraid.

"I need time. Let me think about it. I've been with one guy who made promises to me only to take them back and hurt me. Now that I have a child involved, I need to be absolutely sure if I can trust you", she said.

He nodded.

"Keep the ring. Its yours", Finn said.

She shook her head no and pulled it out of her purse.

"Not till I know what I want", she said.

He nodded and took it back. He kissed her cheek.

"I love you", he whispered.

He walked out.
