Author's Note: Just to remind you guys again...I will use ring names, when Superstars and Divas are in the ring. In case, there was any confusion. Also, I have no knowledge about comic book characters and what I know was done from research. Anyway, onto the chapter!
Roxanne and Dean watched Stephanie McMahon walk out to the ring, with a microphone in her grasps. Stephanie knew that this segment was not supposed to happen, but if Roxanne and maybe, Dean wanted to play like that, she was going to play harder than the two of them combined.
"As much as I would love to discuss this in private, I have some information that everyone should be aware of." Stephanie gave a fake smile to the two other people in the ring. Roxy rubbed her repaired left shoulder. She was going to have to go to the medical physician to see if she is medically cleared to go back to work.
"Why are you here? What does anything in my love life concern about you?" Roxy asked her, with the microphone in her hand. Being in front of millions of people right now, her mind went blank. She only thought that Stephanie wanted to stir the pot with her and Dean.
Stephanie looked at Roxanne, with an even bigger smile than before. She was more than happy that Roxanne asked her that question. "Why Ms. Collins, when information of your love life was brought up to me, I knew as one of the principal owners of the WWE, that I had to inform everyone of it."
"This isn't going to be pretty…" Dean muttered under his breath, getting a few laughs from the crowd. He stood in the corner, prepared for whatever Stephanie was going to admit to everyone and he knew what she had in mind.
"You see, ladies and gentleman, Roxanne Collins and Dean Ambrose got frisky one night and the night after, she started to work for us as the Creative Director. Roxanne abused her ranking in the WWE to get a little something, something from Dean. It wasn't until SummerSlam that Roxy figured out that she was pregnant with Dean's child."
The bombshell hit Roxanne like a ton of bricks. There was a part of her that didn't want to turn around to look at Dean's face, but she had to. The look on Dean's face was that he was in disbelief that he knocked up Roxanne—he put a child in her!
"What's wrong, Roxy? You always have something to say. Cat got your tongue?" Stephanie knew that she had Roxy's number. "Consider this lawsuit your loss." she smirked and then exited the ring.
Does Stephanie have Roxy numbered?
Roxy looked at Dean that sat down on the corner. He was so speechless. He couldn't believe what Stephanie had brought up. Was this the truth? Was Roxy pregnant? Why did she keep this a secret from him?
"Are you pregnant?" Dean asked her, frowning. Roxanne looked down to him. She hated to tell him this in front of everyone.
"Jon, did you hear what she said? I was pregnant. I miscarried because of all the stress. It wasn't because of The Bellas and Eva, not because of the light falling off the ceiling and the attempted hit and run. I miscarried the week after The Bellas and Eva thing. The week, where you started to protect me from all those horrible things," Roxanne whispered. "I didn't know I was pregnant until it was too late."
"Why didn't you tell me?" Dean asked her. Roxanne backed away from him. She couldn't answer that question. At least, not in front of these people.
Roxy came backstage and began to burst to tears. April was the first person to come to her aid with a hug. She had no clue that Roxy was pregnant. No one in the locker knew about Roxy miscarriage—it came to everyone as a shock.
"I didn't know," April whispered. "I can't believe that Jon had no clue about it."
"Oh my God, did Nikki, Eva and I kill your baby?" Brie grabbed Roxy for a hug. Brie was in the verge of crying because she had assumed that she was responsible for killing Roxy's unborn child. Brie was the one that kicked her in the gut during that one confrontation with Nikki and Eva.
"No, you guys didn't. Stress killed my baby." Roxanne informed the two Divas that stood in front of her with worry faces. Brie felt a sigh of relief as April nodded. That was when she heard a voice of someone that was unexpected.
"OH MY GOD! Did I kill your baby?"
Roxy, Brie and April looked at Nikki Bella as she went to hug the former mother to be. Nikki was always someone that vision a future with a loving husband and child. There was always a mother instinct in her because she always wanted to grow up to be a mother. If she knew that Roxy was pregnant, she wouldn't have planned that assault.
"Um, no. Stress killed my child." Roxy tried to calm down the panicking that Nikki was doing. She kept pacing around in worry, thinking of herself as some sort of baby murderer. She thought that John would never forgive her for such a horrible action—even though, he didn't want kids at all.
"Stress! I'll kill that bitch!" Nikki was getting railed up, so Brie decided to put a hand on her twin sister's back.
"Nikki, stress as in pressure, anxiety. You know that feeling? Stress is not a person." Brie informed her and Nikki let out a silent 'oh' out of her mouth. Man, did Nikki feel stupid?
The four women noticed the WWE Superstars, who watched them exchange a conversation. They were intrigued by the news of Roxanne, once being pregnant with Jon's kid.
"Hey! There's nothing to see here!" April took a step forward, sticking up for the creative writer. With the sound of April's voice, the WWE Superstars scrambled in multiple directions, not wanting to deal with what will happen if you don't give what the Divas Champion wants.
"Thank you, April," Roxy wiped the tears from her face, placing her black nailed hands on her shoulder. "The segment crossed the line. I need to do something about The Authority."
"I think that you might need help with them. You and April can't do this alone."
Phil Brooks' voice appeared out of nowhere. When she saw him appear from the shadows, she raced to give him a big hug. She then noticed something. Phil was in Jon's rebellion. Wouldn't it be considered betrayal if he and Brie sided with her?
"I would love to have you and Brie, but you made a promise to Jon and that was to be part of his team. I can't do that to him." Roxanne put her hands on the white top that went above her stomach. That was where the baby once was. She has to put a stop to The Authority, for her mom, dad, the unborn child. For everyone that has been wronged.
"We don't want to join you and April. We want you to join us!" Phil informed her making Roxy look back at him. Was Phil serious? Roxy and Jon working side by side.
"I am so confused." Nikki was completely lost just when Phil became involved in the conversation.
Rebellion? Her sister is part of a rebellion? Jon was a leader of one? What parallel universe did she get herself involved in?
The switch was turned on when she heard about the news of Roxy once being pregnant. That was something that she had never knew about. Nikki hated Roxy because of what she was doing to all the Total Divas, but now, she saw that Roxy had emotion that she was like any ordinary woman. Now, she was broken and she wanted a better work environment for everyone that works in the WWE.
She wants a better WWE.
"Nikki, if I explain, will you please not tell?" Brie sighed, finally deciding to open up to her twin about everything that has been going on in her life. Nikki smirked, what wasn't Brie telling her? They once had a loving sister-sister bond, but when Brie became Roxy's friend, it hurt Nikki because she had always thought of Brie as her best friend. Perhaps, it was that sad feeling of that she didn't want to lose Brie.
Nikki put a hand on her hip as she said. "Are you guys like superheroes? If so, I think that's completely badass."
"If we're superheroes, can I be Batman? Fuck it, I'm calling Batman. April can be Black Widow, Jon can be Joker, Roxy can be Harley Quinn, Brie can be Poison Ivy and Bryan can be anything that looks like a goat." Phil announced with a huge grin on his face—he has been wanting to compare everyone to comic book characters and when he saw the opportunity, he took it.
"Joker, Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy are villains for your information." April corrected Phil, like the smartass that she can be sometimes.
With the response from April, Phil just rolled his eyes. "Whatever, April."
"I don't think that Batman would work with Poison Ivy." April began to think about it. Wasn't Poison Ivy one of Batman's worst enemies?
"But, Brie is obsessed with plants and the environment." Phil retorted back to his friend, getting closer to his friend's face. April looked up to her taller friend.
"I want to be Harley Quinn though," April pouted. Harley Quinn is one of her favorite comic book characters. "If I have to be Black Widow, then I'll be her. Besides, I think that Roxy has a little Harley in her." April smirked, giving Roxy a pat on the back.
"I AM NOT A GOAT!" Bryan exclaimed, which made everyone jump from the floor. When did Bryan even get here?
"Bryan you scared me!" Roxy said, after she took a deep breath. She almost fell to the floor, when she heard his voice. There Bryan stood, and yes, he was paying attention to the entire conversation. Especially to the part, where Phil called him a goat.
"How long have you been there, babe?" Brie asked him.
"Oh, just a while. Jon wanted me to ask Roxanne, if she could talk to him?" Bryan looked at Roxanne, who felt nervous all over again. Brie and April, who stood between her, gave her a slight push in the direction to Jon.
She stopped and looked at Bryan. "Alright, lead me the way."
Jon saw the door open to find Roxanne standing there. She could look at Jon and noticed how upset that he was. His hair was all messed up because of the grabbing that he did with it. His blue eyes looked red because of the anger that he was in. He felt so upset that he didn't know how to control his feelings.
"Jon." she knelt down to Jon, who took a seat at the steel chair that was previously in the corner of the locker room. The locker room was all vacant—and it was best if it was like that because Jon had completely lost his mind, when he learned the bombshell.
"Roxy…why did you tell me? Why did you keep this from me? I could have protected you." the palm of his hand, went to the side of her cheek. She felt the warmth that was with that one touch.
Roxanne took his hand from her cheek and entwined her fingers to his. She looked with her brown eyes, to his blue ones. There was no getting that precious child back, but there was admitting the truth to him. As much as she was scared about telling him the truth, she had to tell him.
"I didn't know you much. That one night stand was nothing to you and I was doing my best of keeping it professional between the two of us. I didn't want this child to ruin your career. You're the United States Champion, I didn't want to ruin your career by making people think that you knocked me up to keep that title with you. I was so scared because I knew that this child wouldn't have a father growing up, just like its mother. I miscarried the week after you took me under your wing and protected me. I was so devastated that I didn't know I was actually pregnant until it was too late." Roxy explained as Jon took in the explanation that his ex-girlfriend presented to him.
"I didn't have a father growing up, I knew the back of his head more than I knew his actual face. I could have provided that child with the love and attention that it needed. Roxanne, I think we could have been great parents as we were a great couple." Jon told her and Roxy knew that it was a truth. With the two of them, neither growing up without a father figure for most of their lives, they both knew that they would love that child until their hearts stopped beating.
"Do you think we would have? I know that things were rocky with us. I do think about us a lot." Roxy informed him as Jon sat on the floor with her, his back pressed against the wall and grabbed Roxy, whose back was pressed against his chest. He stroked her hair as Roxy just loved the feeling, when he touched her so lovingly.
"I think about us all the time. Here's what I think Roxy: I think that we can't fight The Authority separate. I think we need each other more than you think. I think that you should join my rebellion. You and April. With us and the others, I know that we can take down The Authority. My plan is going along great, but I think it can be better with the two of us. Think about Rox, we'll do this together." Jon persuaded her, trying to get a yes out of her, but knowing Roxy, she might not say yes right away.
"What do you have to do?" she asked.
"Bryan already did his part. The Slammys are next week—Brie does her part and at TLC, I'll do the final blow. I was thinking that the RAW after TLC, that you and Stephanie settle the lawsuit once and for all." Jon explained the plan to her.
"Nikki Bella knows about the rebellion. Is Brie doomed?" Roxy asked him, and Jon shook his head no.
"I got something special for Nikki. I think she might like it." Jon gave her a smirk, making Roxy laugh.
"And what is that?"
"How much does Nikki like to stir drama?" Jon asked her, knowing well that Nikki Bella loves to stir drama for the other women.
"A lot." Jon and Roxanne said at the same time and laughed.
Then, Roxy placed her head on his chest. This felt right. These two fit each other like a glove. It was like they were meant to be in some way. Jon never saw himself being in love with Roxanne. Roxanne never thought that she would have big enough feelings for Jon.
"So Roxy, are we back together?" Jon asked her with a smile on his face. Roxy went in and pressed her lips into Jon's for a long and passionate kiss. When these two were in sync, it went from a kiss to some sort of make out.
Roxy turned around to face Jon and look into his eyes. "Let me replace that with another question—are you the United States Champion?"
So, is he the United States Champion? He is! And, about that piece of truth coming out? Wow! Thank you to: DaShadowAngel, ghunter182003, Punkedbyambrose, jusrkimmy, Pinayprincesa and DeeMarie426 for the reviews! Please fave, follow and review! :)
