She woke up to find she was wrapped in Roman's arms. She turned over.
"Good morning", he said softly.
"Morning. How are you feeling?", she asked.
"Good. Better than before", he said.
"What happened?", she asked.
"I don't know honestly. I just remember I had a lot of energy and I wanted to burn it off. After that its just all a blur", he said, before rubbing his face with his hands.
"Are you doing drugs?", she asked.
He turned to look at her and sat up on his elbows.
"No. I can't believe you would ask me that Maya. You know me", he said.
"Your mom and dad told me you were acting so strange. You were exhausted one second and the next, you have this bundle of energy", she said.
"Well I'm not doing drugs", he said.
She nodded and sat up.
"Are you drinking again?", she asked.
"One beer, that's as much as I touch", he said.
She nodded.
"We need to pack. We have a meet and greet tomorrow and you have one Saturday", she said.
"Since when do you know my schedule?", he asked.
"Your mom let me know", she said.
He nodded. He watched her walk out and smiled. He reached for the cup of water that was beside his bed. Stopping, there was a photo of them on the beach in Hawaii.
"Malia found them", he looked up to see Amaya's mom.
"Amaya had these?", he asked.
She nodded.
"In a shoe box, but yes. Malia was going through them. Amaya told her that she was in her tummy in that photo", Trina said.
Roman smiled.
"I guess so. She didn't mention anything to me, that was the same time my family found out about us.", Roman said.
Her mom nodded.
Amaya was in the middle of her meet and greet when Finn showed up in the background. She wondered why he was here. Once she finished, they took her to the back.
"What?", she asked.
"I wanted to apologize for what I said, did, for all of it", he said sincerely.
She nodded.
"I'm sorry too. That's not how I wanted things to go between us. I really wanted to make it work Finn", she said.
"But you love him. There was no competing with that. I knew you weren't over him and yet. I didn't care. I forced you to feel something, which I shouldn't have", he said.
"I should have been honest with you about my feelings.", she said.
"I cheated and I should have been man enough to tell you. I just didn't want to lose you to him, but now I see that was inevitable. I would have lost you some time down the line", he shrugged.
Amaya couldn't disagree there. She met his eyes.
"Friends?", she asked, holding a hand out.
He smiled and nodded, taking her hand.
"Friends", he said, shaking her hand.
Roman had his meet and greet on Saturday. Fans asked him about his daughters, even giving him little gifts for them.
"Daddy", Malia called.
She was in Phil's arms and they were in line to meet him. There were only a handful of fans left to meet.
"Hey baby girl", he said, taking her in his arms.
He heard some of the fans comment, saying how sweet and some even took a picture. Phil stood to the side and took a few photos himself. Roman set Malia on his lap as he finished.
"She's so cute", a fan told him.
"Thank you", he smiled.
"She looks like Maya", another fan pointed out.
"Its funny because everyone says she looks like me", he said.
Malia played with his beard as he signed a shirt.
"You guys should ask him if he and Maya are having any more kids", Phil said.
The fans looked confused. Seeing as they thought he was still married.
"How many of you have Twitter accounts?", Phil asked.
They all raised their hands. Phil nodded.
"He's going to explain his situation to you and I want you to let everyone know.", Phil said.
"What are you doing?", Roman asked.
Phil looked at him.
"You are going to let everyone know your single", Phil said.
Roman looked at the fans. They were waiting. He looked down at Malia and smiled. Looking up, he nodded.
"Ready?", he asked them.
They held their phones up.
Amaya was going over things with Sasha. They would both be running out to beat up Charlotte after she wins her match. They were in Amaya's room.
"I'll come down the ramp acting like I'm going to say something and then you come out from the crowd, slide in and take out Ric and push him out of the ring.", Sasha said.
"Then you slide in and we box in Charlotte", Amaya said.
Sasha nodded.
"I like it", Sasha said.
Amaya looked at her phone.
"Charlotte and Nattie said they were coming. I guess we can just text them to fill them in", Amaya said.
Sasha nodded.
"How did you like your gear? My husband said he sent it to you", Sasha said.
"I love it. You were right, he's a genius", Amaya said.
"I told you", Sasha said.
Someone knocked and Amaya went to answer it.
"They better have brought food, I'm serious", Sasha said.
Amaya laughed softly before opening the door. Roman stood there with Malia.
"Hi mommy", Malia said sweetly.
"Hi sweetie", Amaya said.
Amaya moved so Roman could come in. Sasha waved at him and he returned it. He set down Malia and she ran over to Sasha.
"Hi pretty girl", Sasha said, hugging Malia.
"Did I interrupt?", he asked.
"We were just going over plans for tomorrow and waiting for Nattie and Charlotte", Sasha said.
Roman nodded.
"Did you want to talk?", Amaya asked.
"Actually, I was hoping we could get dinner", Roman said.
"Oh", Amaya said.
"But your busy. Maybe another time", he said.
"Or I could wait for Charlotte and Nattie, fill them in when they get here. I'll order dinner and have it sent up. I bet this little lady is hungry.", Sasha said.
Malia giggled as Sasha tickled her.
"Sasha", Amaya said.
"It's fine Yaya. Go", Sasha said.
Amaya looked at Roman and he smiled.
"Let me go and change", she said.
He nodded. She walked over to her room, closing the door behind her. Roman looked at Sasha.
"Thank you", he said.
"Of course. I've also wanted to spend time with this little one. She's in good hands", Sasha said.
Roman rubbed his daughter's cheek gently and Malia smiled.
"You two definitely need to have another", Sasha said.
Roman laughed softly.
"Would you like that Mal?", Roman asked.
Amaya came out in jeans and a dressy top. High heels and a leather jacket.
"I can do my makeup in the car", she said.
She was excited to be going out with Roman. Usually they had to stay behind closed doors. Roman grabbed her purse after she put her makeup in there. She walked over to Malia and kissed her cheek.
"Be good for aunt Sasha, Malia", Amaya said.
Malia nodded. Roman kissed his daughter as well.
"Have fun", Sasha said.
"We owe you one Sasha", Roman said, before they walked out.
Amaya stood beside Roman as they waited for the elevator. He reached over and took her hand, locking their fingers.
"So where are we going?", she asked.
"You like sushi?", he asked.
She nodded.
"Good, there's this amazing Sushi place and I figured we could go there", he said.
She nodded.
"Is this a date?", she asked.
He smiled.
"Yes. The first of many", he said.
"This is the first time we go out in public like this", Amaya said.
He frowned.
"That makes me feel bad", Roman said.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like that. I meant, I'm excited", Amaya said.
Roman smiled and leaned down to kiss her.
"Me too baby. It's the first of many I owe you", Roman said.
Amaya smiled.
Their date went amazingly well. They talked, laughed, went over Roman's custody battle plan.
"The house is cute by the way", Amaya said, taking a sip of her wine.
"I figured something small since its just the girls and I", he said.
"That's good", she said.
"I'm also looking for a place in New Jersey, you know for when Autumn is with her mom. I can be here and close to Malia and you", he said.
Amaya blushed.
"Also, I was meaning to ask. You think I can have Mal when I'm in Pensacola and with Autumn? I want the girls to be close", he said.
"Sounds good. Just let me know the days you get Autumn", Amaya said.
Roman nodded.
"I did something today", he said.
"What?", Amaya asked.
He pulled his phone out and showed her the video that a fan took. It was him confessing to a fake marriage, faking the ceremony, and being in love with Amaya. He talked about the photos that Valerie had posted.
"Why would you do this?", Amaya asked.
"Because I don't want to hide you anymore. I should have done this a long time ago and I'm sorry I didn't. I love you Amaya", he said.
"There's something I have to tell you", Amaya said.
