Chapter 3
The next two days seemed to pass extremely slow to Katie. When Friday finally came around, Katie waited until noon her time before sending a text to John. She didn't know how to tell him that she was 10 weeks pregnant with his baby.
Hey John, can you call me please? KM
Now is not a good time. I am with Liz at the moment. JC
Ok. I really need to talk to you as soon as possible. KM
Ok. I will call you when I am alone. JC
Katie finished working and soon it was 5pm her time and she still hadn't heard from John. Katie was starting to think that she wouldn't hear from him. The only thing left to do was to text Randy and see if he could get John to call her as soon as possible.
Randy, it's Katie. I have a situation that I need to talk to someone about. KM
Ok. Give me 10 minutes and I'll call you. RKO
Ok. KM
The next minutes couldn't have gone by any slower. Katie held her phone in her hand as she waited for Randy to call her back. She figured that he was around a lot of people and would head to his room before calling her. Soon Katie's wait was over.
"Hi Randy." Katie stated.
"Hey. What's going on?" Randy asked concerned.
"I really need to talk to John about something rather urgent." Katie answered.
"Ok. Did you text him yet?" Randy asked.
"Yeah, almost 6 hours ago. He told me he couldn't talk at that moment as Liz was there. Randy, you know I wouldn't put you in the middle, if it wasn't really urgent." Katie answered.
"I know. Let me see what I can do." Randy responded. "Stay near your phone."
"Thank you Randy." Katie stated before hanging up.
"Randy, what's going on with Katie?" Samantha asked.
"Not really sure, but I may need your help with this. Katie needs to talk to John right away, but Liz wont leave his side for some reason. I need you to take Liz on a last minute shopping trip while I convince John to go work out with me." Randy answered.
"Did something happen between John and Katie when we were in Seattle?" Samantha asked.
"I don't know." Randy answered even though he suspected that something did happen.
Randy called John and asked him to go work out with him and that Samantha wanted to take Liz on a last minute shopping trip before the shops closed. Liz was more than happy to go shopping. After Samantha and Liz left the hotel, Randy and John headed down to the gym and stopped before opening the door.
"Randy, what are you waiting for?" John asked.
"You need to call Katie now." Randy answered.
"I thought we were going to work out?" John asked.
"Look, she sent me a text and I called her. She really needs to talk to you about something. Just call her before Liz and Sam get back." Randy answered.
"Alright. I was going to call her once Liz was asleep, but I guess it must be really important." John responded as he pulled out his phone and called Katie.
"Hello." Katie answered the phone.
"Hey baby. Sorry it took me so long to call you. Liz hasn't left my side all day. What's going on?" John asked worried about her.
"It's ok. Um. I don't know how to tell you this, so I am just going to say it." Katie started to say.
"Babe, are you ok?" John asked.
"John, I'm 10 weeks pregnant with your baby." Katie answered.
"Wait. What?" John asked.
"I'm 10 weeks pregnant with your baby." Katie repeated.
"When did you find that out?" John asked.
"Wednesday afternoon, but you were still in Europe." Katie answered.
"Ok. Text me your home address." John responded.
"Ok. I have the paper the confirms the pregnancy and it has the conception date on there as well. I can fax it to you if you want." Katie stated. "Which hotel are you at?"
"That would be good. I have a feeling tonight is going to be a long night." John stated. "The Hilton near the arena."
"Ok. It's faxed." Katie responded. "I'm sorry John. I never meant for this to happen."
"Baby, its ok. Everything will be ok. Just leave the worrying to me. When is your next doctor's appointment?" John asked.
"Two weeks from this past Wednesday at 9am." Katie answered.
"Ok. I need to get the fax and deal with Liz. Now that you are pregnant I can't be with her anymore, I don't want to be with her, I want to be with you." John responded. "I love you baby, and I promise I will call you as soon as I deal with Liz."
"Ok. I love you too." Katie stated before hanging up the phone.
John looked at Randy who was standing on the other side of the glass door. John knew he needed to tell Randy what was going on so that he was aware in case someone questioned him. John opened the door and walked over to Randy.
"Everything ok?" Randy asked.
"Let's just say a volcano is about to erupt." John answered.
"What are you talking about man?" Randy asked.
"Katie is 10 weeks pregnant with my baby." John answered.
"Oh boy." Randy responded.
"Yeah. Katie sent a fax to the front desk which I need to grab and then when Liz gets back I need to tell her. Then first thing tomorrow, I am calling my lawyer and filing divorce papers. I don't want to be with Liz anymore. I haven't for quite a while now, but Katie being pregnant is my reason to leave Liz." John stated.
"Good Luck, man. If you need to a place to crash after to tell Liz, you know where our room is." Randy responded.
"Thanks." John stated.
After getting the fax that Katie sent, John headed back up to his room. It wasn't long before Samantha and Liz were back. John knew that he needed to be firm and quick about all this. Liz walked into the room with a huge smile and about five different bags full of stuff.
"Hey baby. How was your workout?" Liz asked.
"Liz, sit down. We need to talk." John answered.
"John, what's going on?" Liz asked as she sat down in a chair.
"There is something that I need to tell you and I know that its going to make you mad. I can't change what happened and I can't change the way things are between you and I." John answered.
"John, it can't be that bad, can it?" Liz asked.
"When I was in Seattle for Over The Limit, I slept with someone else." John answered.
"You did what? Which slut of a diva did you sleep with?" Liz shouted.
"The girl I slept with isn't a diva. As a matter of fact I've know this girl for about a year now and she is a great friend to me. She came to the show and we got to meet in person. She is also friends with Randy and Samantha. After the show we all went out and everyone had a little too much to drink and one thing lead to another and we slept together in my hotel room." John answered.
"How many times have you cheated on me?" Liz asked.
"Just this one time. But that's not everything." John answered.
"There's more?" Liz asked.
"Yes. I talked to her tonight as on Wednesday she found out that she is 10 weeks pregnant with my baby." John answered.
"I highly doubt that baby is yours. I demand an amnio to be done." Liz responded.
"She faxed me a copy of the lab results. It shows the conception date as May 22nd. That's the night I slept with her. And I know that she hasn't been in a relationship in over a year, so I know full well that the baby she is carrying is mine. And I intend on being in that child's life no matter what." John stated as he showed her the paper. "Come first thing tomorrow morning, you are flying back to Tampa. I am also filing for an immediate divorce."
John didn't give Liz time to respond as he grabbed all his stuff and headed next door to Randy's room. Once he was inside, Samantha hugged him and told him that everything would be alright. John called all the credit card companies and banks and had them cancel Liz's cards and account access. He booked her a flight back to Tampa and he arranged for a car to take her and pick her up.
