Willa-
Brie was helping me clean out the extra room. There wasn't much in it, Roman and I never got around to making it into anything. We just put a computer and some of his trophies in there.
"Poor trophies", Brie said.
I giggled.
"I was gonna make him some sort of room for his awards and super bowl rings, but so many things happened and I got so busy", I said.
"You can do that now. Does this house have a basement?", she asked.
I nodded.
"Make him a man cave", she said.
"I could do that, but first let's get Mya's room somewhat done", I said.
She nodded, agreeing. We had gone paint shopping, picking Mya an aqua color. I had the baby monitor clipped to my belt. Joey knocked on the bedroom door.
"Nice color", he said.
I got down off the stepping stool.
"Can we have a minute?", he asked.
I nodded. Brie was finishing up her wall, there was no way we were finishing today. I followed Joey out. We stopped by my room, Mya was waking up.
"I need to ask, do you plan on staying with him?", he asked.
"What do you mean?", I asked.
"I mean do you love him or are you just doing this because you want money out of it?", he asked.
"Joey, I really thought you knew me better than that", I said.
"It's not me, Willa. Once this gets out, that Roman Reigns, one of the hottest bachelors in football has a baby with his ex, tabloids and celebrity news are going to go crazy with rumors. I just don't want this to hurt Roman", he said.
"What about Mya? Did you think of her and how it's going to affect her when she's older?", I asked.
"And you. I worry about you too because the last thing I want for you, is being called a slut or a jersey chaser", he said.
"Then I'll handle those things when they come", I said.
"WE will handle those things when they come", we turned to see Roman coming up the stairs.
He glared at Joey.
"Willa isn't a slut, but before anyone finds out anything about my family, I need to tell my mom and dad. Try to keep this under wraps for now Joey", he said.
Joey nodded.
"I'll try my best", he said.
He was leaving.
"Mind watching Mya?", I asked Roman.
"No, Dean went to go grab dinner for all of us", he said, walking into my room.
I quickly went downstairs before Joey left.
"Wait", I said.
He stopped.
"I know you don't think of me that way, you're just looking out for Roman", I said.
"And you", he said.
I nodded.
"Do you think you can do me a favor? Well more for Roman", I said.
"Sure, name it", he said.
"You think you can find someone that can make the basement into a man cave of sorts? I want to put his awards and super bowl rings somewhere, where better than his own man cave", I said.
He thought about it and then nodded.
"I think I can do that. I'll text you, still the same number?", he said.
I nodded. I went back upstairs and Roman was changing Mya and talking to her. I smiled.
"I bet you were excited to come home", I said.
"You have no idea. Although, I was a little worried I would come home and find the house empty and you gone, with Mya", he said.
He sat down on my bed. I moved between his legs and he tensed before relaxing, his hands on my hips.
"I wouldn't ever dream of taking her from you", I said.
I cupped his face and pulled him close, our lips brushing. His hand slowly moved to the middle of my back and he pushed me closer. The kiss growing heavier and deeper. He groaned. Someone cleared their throat, we turned to see Dean looking up.
"Sorry to interrupt, but dinner is here and I really want to hold Mya", he said.
Roman and I laughed.
"Come on in and get her", Roman said.
He looked at us and walked in. He lifted Mya.
"Come on Mya, your parents are being gross", Dean said.
Roman laughed and held me close.
"Let's go eat", he said to me.
"Can I show you Mya's room first?", I asked excited.
He nodded with a smile. We walked in and he looked around.
"Keep in mind we aren't done yet", I said.
"I like the color. What no pink?", he asked.
"I hate pink, you know that", I said.
He nodded.
"I do, still the same old Will", he said.
"I'm gonna fit another shelf in her closet as soon as I'm done painting and building her crib and changing table", I said.
"I'll do that, well with Dean's help", he said.
"I can do it Roman", I said.
"I know you can, but I'm her father. I should do something", he said.
"Okay", I said.
He took my hand and we walked out. Brie and Dean were serving. Roman took Mya from him.
"Did you miss daddy today? I missed you Mya", he lifted her and kissed her cheek.
She started giggling like crazy.
"Wow, she's never made that noise before", I said.
"She loves her daddy", Roman said.
"So have you told your family yet?", Brie asked as we sat down.
"Not yet. They are coming for the first game so, I guess we can tell them then", he said, looking at me.
I nodded. Truth be told, I was afraid to tell his family. They were going to be mad that I hid my pregnancy from him, that I kept Mya from him for six months. They weren't going to care about my reasons for not telling him and I knew that if he told them that he wanted to be with me again, they were going to do everything they could to talk him out of it.
They might have known me since I was a child, but I also hurt him. I hurt their son and brother, that is unforgivable in their eyes. I felt warm lips press against my cheek.
"You okay?", he asked.
I looked at him and nodded.
"Don't worry. No matter what baby girl, you're stuck with me. I'm not letting you leave me again", he said.
I pecked his lips.
"How did you know what I was thinking about?", I asked.
He smiled.
"Because I know my woman better than anyone", he said.
"I'm your woman?", I asked.
He nodded.
"You've always been my woman", he said, kissing my cheek again.
"Brie, I think we should go before they start having sex on the table", Dean said.
Brie slapped his shoulder and laughed. We looked at them.
"Sorry", I said.
"Don't be, making up for lost time", Brie said.
Once dinner was done, we all talked for a bit. I felt Roman's free hand on my thigh. Brie and Dean stood.
"We can clean up", I said.
"Willa", Roman stopped Brie.
"We got it Brie", he said.
She nodded and we walked them out. Brie kissed Mya's head and they left. Walking back inside, I started cleaning up. Roman was watching ESPN while feeding Mya. I heard him explain his position and tell her the story of his first NFL touchdown with the Patriots. I finished washing the dishes. I didn't hear him come into the kitchen.
"You are coming to my first game right?", Roman asked.
"Yes and so is Mya", I said.
"You are going to have so much fun at your first game princess. All your cousins and aunts, your grandma and grandpa, your uncle Matt", he said.
I smiled.
"Can I say something?", he asked.
"Sure, the floor is yours Mr. Reigns", I said.
He looked at me.
"I love you", he said.
I leaned over and kissed him. He smiled and rested his forehead against mine.
"I love you", I said.
"Stay with me tonight? Mya can sleep between us", he said.
I nodded.
