Evan walked with Alanna towards the interview area and saw John and Josh had already wrapped up and were just chatting. Upon seeing John for herself she let go of Evan's hand.
"NAKED BABY!" She wrapped around John's leg like he was a security blanket.
"Whoa hey there short stuff," John scooped up Alanna into his arms. "Hey Ran…..Evan?" John was completely confused. "Where's Randy?"
"I don't know I found Alanna in an utility closet crying," Evan walked over to stand by Josh.
"So this is Randy's daughter," Josh pointed at one of Alanna's pig tails.
"Yep this is his princess," John bounced her noticing she was falling asleep quickly.
"Matthews they need you at Gorilla so you can replace King next segment," a backstage hand called.
"Right, on my way," Josh called back. "See you guys later, and you too little lady," Evan and John watched Josh sprint off before turning their attention back to Alanna who was now fully asleep on John's shoulder.
"Think we should find somewhere to lay her down?" Evan asked looking at how sweet Alanna looked sucking her thumb while sleeping on the large shoulder.
"Sounds like a plan. I bet the GM set up is empty for now, the leather couch will be a good bed," John led Evan to the room in the arena that was set up as the GM's office with the usually black leather couch.
"Hey John and Evan," said Steven the camera man.
"Hey are you done in here?" John shifted Alanna careful not to wake her.
"Sure are. Why? What's up?" he peer at the girl in John's arms.
"Not mine, Randy's little girl need somewhere to nap," John walked towards the couch. Evan watch has John gentle placed her on the couch before taking his shirt off to place over her has a blanket. Evan wasn't sure if his shirt would be any help due to his size but he took his off too and placed it over little Alanna.
"Sleep well," Evan brushed a piece of hair out of her eyes. "Let's talk out in the hall."
"Okay," John looked over his shoulder at Alanna before stepping out of the room closing the door behind him.
"Randy not wanting me around is because of the divorce isn't it?" Evan folded his arms over his chest.
"Yes but I don't know any of the details, I just know Randy wants the custody courts to think he is single, and not that he's bi sexual in a relationship with a man," John sighed hoping Evan would understand Randy's reasons.
"After what Alanna told me I understand why he's doing everything in his power," Evan dropped his arms. "Wish he would have told me that's all."
"Maybe he will let you in now, so," John bit the inside of his cheek. "How do you feel about my god daughter?"
"You're her god father?" Evan looked astonished.
"Yeah Hunter and I are her god parents," John explained.
"Oh," Evan replied realizing Randy and John had been best friends for years if not more at one point so it made sense why John was a god father to Alanna he wasn't sure why the game might have been named god father.
"Aside from Naked Baby she will call me Uncle John occasionally," John chuckled. "But like I asked before how do you feel about my god daughter?"
"She's adorable, her eyes are just like Randy's but her hair is blonde I thought Sa…"
"Becky, his sister is blonde," John cut Evan off before he could speak the name of Randy's ex.
"Oh stupid me I wasn't thinking that another family member might have blonde hair," Evan looked down at the ground.
"Don't worry about something silly like that," the older man placed a large hand on Evan's shoulder. "So if Randy goes sole custody would it bother you having to share Randy with her? Especially knowing she will come before you to him? Or that you might be placed into a mother/father role as your relationship grows?"
"Had never thought about it, he's going for sole?" Evan furrowed his eyebrows surprised it wasn't joint because of what Alanna had said about Daddy letting her see Mommy and Mommy not allowing her to see Daddy made him think it was Samantha going after sole custody, not Randy.
"I'm not sure he doesn't go into much depth about what happens in court he just asks me to keep quiet about what I do know," John explained starting to pace around a little bit showing his concern about the whole situation. "Anyway probably shouldn't saying this, but he's got another hearing in the morning about custody if that explains why he might not want you around tonight."
"Yeah that would explain it," Evan let out a small sigh wishing he could help Randy even if it was just offering an ear to vent to. "His parents must be watching her tomorrow," Evan opened the door to peek in at the sleeping princess.
"Actually I am," John awaited the surprised look from Evan which he was given. "Randy's parents are going with him to court to help testify his case for custody."
"That's understandable. They would probably babysitting Alanna while he was on the road right?" Evan saw John was pacing even more.
"Yeah I assume that's the reason," John stopped in his tracks as he heard a familiar voice yelling out.
"Alanna! Alanna! Sweetie please come out from wherever you are," Randy was walking down corridor.
