Hey guys so I got a question about Joshua, he is supposed to be one, but when I was writing the chapter of when Joshua shows up, I completely forgot he is one so I made him act like a five year old, plus I imagined him five to seven years old. So just think of him as five, so sorry for inconvenience :/ Enjoy and review!

You're My Savior: Chapter 18
Punk woke up the next morning to a small, quietly giggles then felt a small finger poke his nose and he scrunched his face and heard another giggle and felt another poke on his nose and opened his eyes to find Joshua in bed next to him and he chuckled and Joshua poked his nose again and Punk sat up and lifted him and softly laid him back down on the bed and started to tickle him with both of them laughing.
"Guys, come on, I don't want my bed broken." AJ said coming out from the bathroom and smiling as she watched them both.
"Oh really?" Punk said as he stopped tickling Joshua and turned to AJ as he got up from the bed and AJ looked at Punk cautiously as he walked towards her and heard Joshua's giggles in the background.
"What are you doing?" AJ asked and Punk chuckled.
"Nothing." Punk said as he lifted AJ off her feet and carried her to bed and got on top of her and started to tickle her and she heard Joshua's giggles in the background.
"STOP!" AJ pleaded as the laughter continued.
AJ continued to plead as Punk continued to tickle her and Joshua even helped Punk by placing her wrists down so she wouldn't push Punk off. After about twenty more minutes, Punk finally stopped and laid beside AJ and Joshua jumped on top of Punk and Punk lifted the little boy in the air and started to play around with him. AJ sat up and chuckled softly as she watched the two.
She would have to admit that Joshua brought out the fun, laid back side of Punk. He could tell that Punk would tell him all about wrestling and that Joshua would want to follow in his father's footsteps to become like him, but she knew that as he got older he would change his style of wrestling, hopefully incorporating both of his parents' wrestling ways into his wrestling.
AJ continued to watch the two and smiled to herself. She could honestly see herself marrying this man and he would be faithful, respectful, and loving to her since he had already showed her that those couple weeks they were together before Joshua had come into this world.
"No, daddy, stop!" Joshua pleaded, laughing, then Punk stopped and Joshua went silent.
Punk smiled and chuckled and poked his stomach "That's the second time you've called me daddy." He said. Joshua looked up at him with shameful eyes.
"Sorry Punk, I-"Punk cut off Joshua, replacing hurtful words with the words his son would love to hear.
"Don't be sorry, little man. You are my son, and no one else's, so you really think that I would love to not be called daddy?" Punk asked and Joshua shrugged and Punk brought the little boy close to him.
"Don't be sorry, because honestly that's the best thing you can ever call me." Punk said loud enough for AJ to hear, but soft enough so it wouldn't hurt Joshua's ear. He felt the little boy's arms wrap around his neck, hugging him tightly and Punk looked over at AJ, whose was smiling so big, it looked like her face would stay in that position forever.
AJ looked at Punk and smiled even more at the love of her life. Things were about to change and she knew it would be for the good. Punk winked at her then got up from the bed and placed his son on the edge of the bed.
"Hey, I have an idea. Want to go see a movie tonight?" Punk asked and Joshua cheered and jumped up and down on the bed causing AJ to giggle softly.
"I knew you would be happy to." Punk said with a smile and Joshua jumped on his father and Punk wrapped his arm around his upper body and placing an arm under his butt to hold him in position and Punk said something to him and walked downstairs.
"You know, me and your mommy have to work tomorrow night so do you want to come with us or stay with a boring babysitter?" Punk said, making his face scrunch up at the second option and Joshua shook his head.
"No, no, no babysitter. I want to go with you and momma." Joshua said and Punk smiled.
"Great. You get to see the adventures of what happens backstage and not the boring adventures of when you were with your mom and Daniel. That's the bad part. It's going to be fun with me and you, right?" Punk said and Joshua nodded his head. Punk ruffled his dark brown hair and walked over to get two bowls and poured Captain Crunch cereal in both bowls.
"Hey daddy," Joshua said and Punk raised his eyebrows signaling that he was listening.
"Are you going to leave me and momma like Daniel did?" Joshua asked and Punk looked up and placed the cereal with milk in front of him and he sighed deeply.
"Josh, I would never leave you and your mother. You two are the most important people in my life right next to my sisters, but you and your mother are my number one priority." Punk said and Joshua nodded.
"Okay, daddy, I just wanted to make sure because Daniel never treated momma good and they would always fight and he would always leave after their fights." Joshua said and AJ came in and grabbed herself a bowl and poured the cereal into her bowl.
"That's because Daniel is a bad man. You stay away from him, okay?" AJ said and Joshua nodded.
"Yes momma." Joshua said and AJ glanced at both of them.
"Now which movie do you two plan on us seeing?" AJ asked and Punk looked at Joshua, letting the little boy decide.
"Batman!" Joshua cried out and Punk smirked as he continued to eat his cereal.
"Nice choice, my son." Punk said as he looked at AJ who was smirking as well.
"You know, people confuse me with Batman." Punk said proudly and AJ chuckled.
"Really? So you are Batman and Cena is Superman since a lot of kids call him Superman." Joshua said and Punk looks at AJ and points his spoon at Joshua.
"My son is a smart boy." Punk said and Joshua giggled.
"Our son is a smart boy." AJ corrected him and Joshua smiled as he looked between the two.
XXXXXXXXXX
"Josh, you ready?" Punk called out to Joshua from downstairs and about two minutes later he heard those little footsteps running down the stairs and he chuckled as he bent down and lifted him up in the air and carried him.
"Momma is almost done." Joshua said and Punk nodded.
"Alrighty, I don't mind waiting. She's probably trying to look pretty for me." Punk said to Joshua as he winked and Joshua laughed.
"Well, well, maybe I'm just trying to look for my converse which I couldn't find." AJ said as she removed her hair from the inside of her batman sweater.
"Nice sweater." Punk said smirking and AJ rolled her eyes playfully with a smile as she fixed Joshua's hair a little.
"What time is the movie?" AJ asked as she took Joshua from Punk then placed him down on his feet.
"Eight." Punk said as he got into the driver's seat then AJ got into the passenger seat.
Punk pulls out of the driveway and in about twenty minutes, he finds a parking spot and helps Joshua out of the car and puts him on the floor and holds his hand as AJ takes the other and both walk to the movie theater and ask for three tickets for the Dark Knight Rises. Two adults and one child and of course, the age of Joshua. Surprisingly they let the three go in despite the time of day.
They got inside with popcorn, three medium sodas, and peanut M&M's for Joshua. Joshua wanted to sit next to his father and AJ sat on the other side of Punk as he wrapped his arm around AJ during the previews of the movie.
Punk would chuckle occasionally with AJ when they heard their son cheering on Batman even though they weren't there.
"Daddy, that's going to be Robin," Joshua whispered to his father about the character who he assumed was going to be Robin and at the end he was correct. The trio walked out of the movie theater with some fans wanting the autographs from both Punk and AJ and Joshua stayed nearby, smiling at his mom and dad. He was sure that he was going to have his family now and his true family as well.
"Alright, little man, you tired?" Punk asked his son as he lifted him off the ground, catching Joshua's yawn as he nodded and laid his head on his shoulder.
"You know he's happy now." AJ said and Punk looked at AJ and held AJ's hand with his free one as they walked out of the theater. Punk carefully put Joshua into his seat and got in the driver's seat and smiled over at AJ.
"You know I can't believe Vince McMahon put you as GM of Raw." Punk said and AJ lifted her hands up and shrugged with a smile.
"I'm just awesome like that." AJ said with a grin and chuckled along with Punk.
"You go back to work tomorrow right?" AJ asked and Punk nodded.
"Yeah, I can't wait to see everyone again, plus I can't wait to show little man around to meet the guys." Punk said and AJ chuckled quietly.
"Of course you would want him to meet the guys." AJ rolled her eyes playfully and Punk chuckled.
Punk pulled into the driveway and carefully took out Joshua from his seat and brought him upstairs as AJ went to the bedroom. Punk just took off Joshua's shoes and jacket and tucked him into his bed and then went to AJ's bedroom and removed his jeans to replace them with sweatpants and the t-shirt with a white V-neck t-shirt. He got into bed beside AJ and kissed her goodnight and all was quiet throughout the house. There were no nightmares, no arguments, no whispers, and no nothing. All were asleep peacefully for a second night in a row.
