Chapter 11
February 14- 5AM
Kayla shut the bathroom lights off behind her, rubbing her stomach gently trying to make the nauseating feeling go away. It was 5 AM and she had thrown up 3 times already, this pregnancy was defiantly not going to be the easiest, just like every other aspect of her life right now. She covered her mouth, yawning slightly as she grabbed a bottle of water from the mini bar in her hotel and taking a few sips from it, hoping that it would make her feel better and less queasy.
She was currently staying at a hotel in Anaheim, California, that is where the Monday night Raw was being tapped tonight, she opted to take a flight down with Nikki and John whom were asleep a couple hotel rooms over. 'At least someone can get some sleep' she thought as she took a deep breath in and sat down on the bed. Not only was this morning sickness bothering her, her mind was constantly racing, her heart had pain and confusion buried deep inside it. She still had yet to tell Dwayne that she was pregnant with Randy`s baby, she made it a point to do it today after the show, the only problem is, its valentines day and to drop a bomb like that on a romantic day would be even more heart wrenching for Dwayne. She had no idea how he was going to react, no idea what he would say, but she hoped for the best.
One part of her heart was telling her to go, move on, be with Dwayne he has made you so happy these past couple weeks. But the other part of her heart, the larger part which he was beginning to resent, was reminding her of Randy, and everything about him. Everyday she would look down at her still flat stomach and smile, she would smile because she was carrying the baby of a man she loved…But that smile was always short lived when she would think of the fact that Randy wanted nothing to do with her, he didn't want marriage, he didn't want kids and it hurt her so much that the didn't want any of it with her. She got herself into such a mess accepting their arrangement two years ago. And to make matters worse, on top of all these feelings, she felt such guilt and pain because she hadn't gotten over Randy and she was with Dwayne, who was making her happy but yet she couldn't stop thinking of HIM! Randy!
"Ugh!" she fell back on the bed with an exaggerated sigh. There was no way she could sleep now, she had too many thoughts running through her mind. A couple weeks ago she could have just made her way to the hotel gym and worked out all the anger and confusion she had built up in her but now…with the baby she didn't want to do much of that.
Just as she was about to turn on the hotel TV, her phone began buzzing on the bedside table and the caller ID read DWAYNE. A smile played upon her lips before unlocking her screen and answering her phone.
"Kayla Brooks here." she smiled playfully laying her head on the pillow.
"Well Miss Brooks do you have some time to spare to speak with your boyfriend?" Dwayne replied with a small chuckle
"But of course." she paused and tilted her head to the side "Hey you."
Dwayne smirked on the other end of the phone, he loved hearing her sweet voice "Good morning beautiful, and what are you doing up this early?"
Kayla cleared her throat and quickly came up with a white lie "I just got finished at the gym."
"Oh you and me both sweetheart." he took a quick pause "So what are you doing now?"
"Laying in bed, hoping to get some sleep." and as soon as those words came out of her mouth there was a knock at her hotel room door "Hey Dwayne, hold on, theres someone at the door." she whispered and approached cautiously.
"At this hour?" Dwayne questioned
Kayla slowly turned the lock and began opening the door slowly, when she saw the tall figure in front of her she smiled brightly. "DWAYNE!" she giggled lightly and leaned up giving him a soft kiss on the lips.
Dwayne smiled at the shock on her face and slipped his phone back into his pocket when he saw her standing on her tipi toes to lean in and kiss him, gladly allowing and reciprocating the kiss. "Mmm, damn what a welcome."
Kayla smirked and moved to the side allowing him to come into the room and shutting the door behind him. "I thought your flight was only coming in around 10?"
"What a guy can't come and surprise his girlfriend?" A smile played upon his lips as he said this. His arm reached out and grabbed a hold of her waist bringing her closer to his body. "Plus I wanted an excuse to be alone with you before the day gets started."
Kayla`s heart warmed at his words, she tilted her head and stared into his eyes. 'What is wrong with me?' she thought, 'I have this amazing guy in front of me and I can't stop thinking about Randy'. With Randy she never got surprised at her hotel room at 5 in the morning, she never got to hear sweet words escape his mouth like the words Dwayne says to her. Most of all she never got to hear him call her his girlfriend.
Kayla leaned in slowly and brushed her lips against Dwayne`s, slowly opening her mouth allowing her tongue to meet with his. Her hands traveled up his chest and her nails gently raked against the material of his shirt covering his abs. Despite how hard she tried, somehow the thought of Randy`s lips came into her mind, the passion that she would feel in his kisses, the passion she would reciprocate to him, the way he tasted , his lips on hers. She suddenly became in shock that she was thinking of him while kissing Dwayne, she quickly pulled away and cleared her throat, letting her head fall to the ground, guilt pouring over her.
Dwayne in shock of her sudden change in mood, slowly lifted her chin to meet his gaze "Baby are you okay?" he paused searching her eyes but found nothing "What was that about?"
She sighed and walked a few feet away, over to the nightstand and grabbed her bottle of water "Nothing.." she whispered and then looked up at him "Really, honestly it was just me being an idiot."
Dwayne raised a brow confusion setting in a first, but after a couple seconds he felt like he knew exactly what happened. He sighed and put his hand on his hips "Did uh…" he cleared his throat unaware of how to phrase what he was going to say next "Did our kiss just remind you of him?"
Kayla sighed and groaned frustrated with herself "Dwayne, I'm sorry! Im so sorry!" she sighed and paced back and forth "I don't know whats wrong with me, You don't deserve this!" she exclaimed tears threatening to fall from her eyes. "How can he even come into my mind when I'm with you? Its ridiculous."
Dwayne walked closer to her, facing her back he placed his hands gently on her shoulders rubbing the up and down "Kayla, turn around…" he egged on softly.
She slowly turned and he brought her closer in his arms, resting his hands on her hips "This isn't really your fault, I knew what I was getting myself into, I knew exactly how you felt, and I told you I would make you get over this guy…" He paused and wiped away the single tear rolling down her cheek "And Im going to."
Kayla sniffled and shook her head looking down again. She knew it wasnt going to happen, there was so much that Dwayne didn't know, there was so much more to the story, the web of lies just kept getting bigger. "What if you can't?" she paused her eyes dancing with his "What if there something big, bigger than us that can stop you?"
Dwayne squinted his eyes a bit confused by her question "Bigger than us? Baby what are you talking about?"
Kayla sighed and knew, she knew it was now or never, she had to tell him now, she couldn't go on lying to him anymore, she wanted to wait until the end of the show tonight but it just wasn't going to work out that way, she couldn't take all these lies going on inside her. She bit her lower lip and looked up at him, her eyes suddenly flooded with tears, she took his hand and gently motioned for him to sit with her on the bed "Sit." she said simply.
"I-I-" she sighed unable to speak "I don't know how to get this out." she hissed, frustrated with herself.
Dwayne reached over and grabbed her hand in his, he stroked her knuckles softly "Relax. Breathe."
She took a deep breath and squeezed his hand tight.
He smiled very softly "Good, now whatever it is, just tell me."
She wanted to run and hide but she couldn't, she wanted to pinch herself and make pretend this was all a dream but again she couldn't. She had to face this ahead on. "You remember the pregnancy test, Nikki took a couple weeks ago, after the Royal Rumble show?"
Dwayne nodded "Yeah sure. Why?"
She cleared her throat. "Dwayne." she took a deep breath "It was mine."
He sat there, frozen for a minute, after he took it all in he let out a long sigh and let go of her hand lifting himself off the bed "Yours?" he turned his back to her and laughed unamused at the situation "So your Pregnant?"
Kayla whispered "Yes." waiting for him to face her again.
Dwayne turned to face her, this time his hands on his hips "So you`ve known for two weeks now, you allowed Nicole to lie about it to me, and you didn't have the decency to tell me yourself after she lied about it?"
Kayla closed her eyes taking in all his words, she knew he was mad at her, she didn't want this, she didn't want him disappointed or mad at her, this situation was just so hard. "Dwayne, you have to understand this situation is so difficult." she started "You and Me had just started something and then this came up and I was afraid of how you would handle things, despite me still being in love with this other guy, I do care about you."
Dwayne ran a frustrated hand over his shaved head "Kayla this is not something you lie about, I don't care the circumstances, yes I would have been disappointed but at least I wouldn't have been in the dark about things!"
She lifted herself off the bed and walked over to Dwayne, she placed her hand on his cheek gently "Please, you have to understand why I couldn't tell you right away."
He sighed and lower his hand, placing it over hers on his face "I do." he calmed down his tone "That doesn't change the fact that it hurts not only that you lied to me but that now…" he looked deep into her eyes, as if he were loosing her "I have to accept the fact I may loose this battle."
A ping was sent strait to her heart, she felt horrible, she hurt him, not intentionally but she knew what pain felt like and she didn't want that for him. "Im so sorry, you know I would never want to hurt you."
He turned around, facing the wall this time, he couldn't face her, at least not right now.
"Who says this won't work though?" she spoke barley above a whisper "We can still try."
He turned back around to face her again and tried his best to force a small smile "No …we can't." he sighed and shrugged his shoulders "Your pregnant with another mans baby, whom by the way your still in love with, whom you haven't told yet, how do you know when he hears the news he won't want to be a family with you?"
Kayla snickered "Dwayne do you hear yourself?" she sighed "You do remember this guy? I told you all he wanted from me was our 'Friends with benefits' arrangement, he doesn't want commitment, marriage or kids. Its not for him."
"A baby changes everything Kayla." he stated simply "If you tell him and he still doesn't want anything to do with you or the baby, then yes I will be here for you 100% and we can try again at this relationship."
She walked over to him, as close as she could be now and held both his hands "Dwayne, Im telling you he won't be in the picture, Im lucky if he will even believe me."
Dwayne raised a brow and looked at her in confusion "Who the hell is this asshole?"
Kayla bit her lip in thought, she was just going to tell him. 'Like a band-aid girl, quick and painless'. she told herself. "Randy Orton." she blurted out.
What a morning for Kayla huh? She finally got everything out in the open with Dwayne! But what will happen next, Will Randy find out he's having a baby with Kayla? More importantly will he believe her? will he care? Please Review! and stay tuned to find out! :)
