Chapter 5
The next morning, John was up before Katie and quietly headed downstairs to make breakfast for them. When Katie woke up, she noticed that John wasn't in bed with her, but that his stuff was still there. It was just a matter of a few minutes before wave of morning sickness came over Katie. She bolted into the bathroom and threw up what was in her stomach. After brushing her teeth, Katie put on John's t-shirt and a pair of shorts before heading downstairs.
"How are you feeling?" John asked.
"I hate morning sickness. I can't wait for it to be gone." Katie answered as she sat down at the kitchen table.
"I made breakfast for us." John responded as he placed a plate of food in front of Katie.
"Thank you. At least the smell of food doesn't make me sick." Katie stated.
After eating breakfast, John and Katie decided to stay in for the most part and just relax. Katie flipped through the channels and found a decent movie and left it there. Katie had her legs stretched over John's lap while they listened to the movie and Katie looked through the baby names book.
John wrote down the names that Katie liked as well as some that he liked. Katie started to doze off while looking through the book and John took the book from her. It wasn't long before the doorbell rang and Katie jumped. Katie walked over to the front door and opened it to see who was there.
"Mom, dad, what are you doing here?" Katie asked when she saw who was standing there.
"We just thought that we would stop by and see you. How are you sweetie?" her mom answered.
"I'm ok. Uh, come in." Katie responded.
"Who is he?" her dad asked.
"Mom, Dad, this is John. John these are my parents, Lisa and Daniel." Katie answered.
"It's nice to meet you." John responded as he shook their hands.
"Nice to meet you too." Lisa stated as she looked at her daughter. "Katie, can we talk to you alone for a minute?"
"Sure." Katie responded as John headed upstairs.
"Who is he and why did he head to your bedroom?" Daniel asked.
"Dad, you know full well who he is." Katie answered.
"Why is he here? You do know that he is married right?" Daniel asked.
"He is here because he wanted to be here and as of a few days ago, he is legally separated from Liz. Look, I've known John for two years and we love each other." Katie answered.
"How long has this been going on?" Lisa asked.
"11 weeks now." Katie answered.
"Wow, you've been counting the weeks?" Lisa asked.
"Nope. I just know." Katie answered.
"There's something else going on here." Daniel responded.
"What else could there be going on?" Katie asked.
"Child, do not get an attitude with your father." Lisa stated.
"You said without thinking, that you and John have been sneaking around for 11 weeks. Sounds to me that there is something that you are not telling us." Daniel answered.
"I have nothing to hide. The fact that I am an adult obviously means nothing to either of you. You want to know everything? Fine. I am pregnant with John's baby!" Katie responded.
"You are what?" Daniel asked angrily.
"11 weeks pregnant with his baby." Katie answered.
"I'm gonna kill that boy." Daniel responded.
"You will do no such thing. Whether you like it or not, John and I are going to be together and I am going to have this baby." Katie stated. "Now if you would please get out of my house and leave us alone, I would be a little happier right now."
Lisa and Daniel didn't say another word as they walked out the door. Katie slammed the door and locked it behind them. She was glad that she told them off. Her parents hadn't bothered to care about her since she turned 18 and that was 12 years ago. John came downstairs and pulled Katie into his arms.
"I'm sorry baby." John stated.
"Don't be. It's not your fault. We don't need my parents in our life anyways." Katie responded as she smiled at him.
"I still need to tell my family that Liz and I are getting a divorce and that you and I are together and having a baby. And I have to tell Vince. Randy and Samantha already know as Randy suspected something when you called and told him it was really urgent that you talk to me." John stated.
"Well, start making those phone calls." Katie responded.
John pulled out his phone and called Vince first. Katie headed upstairs to shower and change as they needed to go grocery shopping before dinner. John told Vince everything that was going on and was able to take Liz off of everything and put Katie on. Which also meant that Katie and the baby were covered by the insurance through the WWE. John then called his parents.
"Hello." Carol answered the phone.
"Hi mom." John stated.
"JC. It's so good to hear from you. How are you and Liz?" Carol asked.
"I'm doing good. Liz, I don't know." John answered.
"What do you mean you don't know how Liz is?" Carol asked confused.
"Liz and I are getting divorced." John answered.
"Oh JC, I'm so sorry. What happened?" Carol asked.
"Well, for one, I had a feeling that Liz only married me for the name and the money. I also suspected her of cheating on me when I was gone for long periods of time. And she never wanted to accompany me to the pay-per-view events. Well, while the WWE was in Seattle for Over The Limit, I met up with a friend, Katie, that I've known for a few years and she is also friends with Randy and Samantha Orton. After hanging out and drinking a little too much, we headed up to my hotel room and slept together." John answered.
"JC. Why didn't you tell me you and Liz were having problems like that?" Carol asked.
"It wasn't something that happened overnight for the most part, but there is something else that you and dad need to know." John answered.
"What is it?" Carol asked.
"Katie is 11 weeks pregnant with my baby." John answered.
"Are you sure the baby is yours?" Carol asked.
"Yes, mom. I am 110% sure that the baby is mine." John answered.
"Well, then I am happy for you and I can't wait to meet Katie and hopefully before the baby is born." Carol responded.
"I will make sure of that, mom. I love you." John stated.
"Love you too son. Talk to you later." Carol responded before hanging up.
John and Katie soon headed out the door and to the grocery store. John tried his best to mask his identity with a hat and sunglasses, but some people still recognized him and asked him for autographs and pictures. John finally gave in and Katie just smiled at the scene he caused.
Once they were finally able to get out of the store with groceries, they headed back to the house and Katie started on dinner. While Katie made dinner, John thought about his life and how much being a father meant to him. He couldn't wait to meet his son or daughter.
The next two weeks passed quickly and John was there for Katie's doctor's appointment. They got to see their baby on the screen and were able to take a picture home with them. Katie stopped at Walgreen's to make copies of the ultrasound picture for John, the baby book and John's parents. After they were back at the house, John asked to barrow Katie's car as he needed to run out do a few things before dinner. Katie handed him the keys and told him to use the GPS if he got lost.
John smiled as he got in the car. Katie wondered what there was to do for John, but she figured that he knew what he was doing. Katie headed inside and scanned the ultrasound picture on to her computer. She wanted to post it on Facebook, but thought that she should wait until she talked to John first.
