A/N: Last Raw was like a gift from GOD for this story! Or rather I should say a gift from Vince lol XD
It set up some of the ideas I wanted to do for this story. Just perfection!
John walked backstage after his promo. He did not know to smile or to just be confused by Ryback's sudden appearance. He was still happy with the promo. It had only been a weak, but he had missed the roar of crowd. And the crowd had been loud for him. A large portion of the crowd seemed to be fans tonight. That was probably the best part. He didn't mind getting boo'd, but coming back after only a week of absence it almost relieved him to hear the overwhelming reaction.
He still couldn't figure out what was happening with Ryback. He knew the large man was somewhat and silently putting Punk in his place on the promos, but he made no sense to the 10 time WWE Champion.
John shook his head getting the strange thoughts on the unpredictable Ryback out of his mind. His eyes finding AJ. She stood near by giving him a smile with no one else around it seemed besides the techs. He walked up to the diva not knowing what was going through her head anymore than he did Ryback. "Hey." He gave her a large smile.
"Hi...Umm I wanted to talk to you." AJ said.
John smile flattered for a moment, but he regained it in a second. "OK, what's up?" He asked. Hopefully he was ready for whatever AJ was thinking.
"The things you said in your promo...Well I accept." She said a smile widening on her features.
John searched his mind. He had no clue what the diva was talking about. "What part of the promo?" He asked feeling like an idiot for it. The promo was more another challenge to Punk to build more momentum for the ineviable match.
"You said you wanted to take me on a date. And I accept. I'll see you after the show." AJ patted his chest. Her smile still large. She turned away from him skipping down the hall not even giving John a chance to recover from the shock of it all.
He had only made the suggestion of a date as a joke. He never expected AJ to come up and say that she accepted the date. He had no idea what AJ was think...not that he ever knew. But he did know once Punk found out he'd be in serious shit with the WWE Champion.
"AJ can date whoever she wants." Punk said simply. The words shocked everyone in the room. Colt, Kofi, John, Paul, and Zack were looking at him like he was insane.
"Punk...We are talking about AJ...Your baby mama?" Colt said slowly and questionably. He was one of Punk's best friends. Normally he could kinda figure him out. He and Punk had gotten along so well right away in their friendship...But now he was sure that Punk had lost his mind.
"I know who we're talking about. AJ is pregnant with my kid, but we aren't together. She can do whatever she wants with John-boy." Punk said sound uncharacteristically cool with the situation.
"OK...I guess I'll just take her out to eat and bring her back..."John sighed. He never actually wanted this, but he didn't want to tell AJ that and hurt her feelings...Or possible get on the wrong side of any pregnancy hormones.
"Just bring her back after. She always forgets to take her prenatal vitamins." Punk said. "Now I have to go get ready to beat the crap out of our boss." Punk said. Throwing his head phones around his neck he pulled his hoodie on and left the room.
"Sure you're gonna be OK?" AJ asked.
The show was long over. Punk was sitting on bench waiting to be questioned by police, security, and Vince. It was annoying as hell. He made the mistake of retaliating against the fans. But when they were hitting and shoving him he wasn't exactly thinking clear. Plus he was already pissed of prior to the match.
"Go AJ, have fun." Punk waved her off trying not to read into the concerned look on her face.
John came behind AJ looking just as worried, but not all for the same reasons. "We don't have to do this-"
"Will you just go on a freaking date already!" Punk snapped. He didn't want to deal with any of their pity right now. He looked at AJ seeing her anger mask over the hurt from his out-burst.
"Fine." Se huffed. Looping her arm around John's good arm she guided the man away and onto their date.
Punk sighed running a hand across his face. Regret filling his body. He should have told her to stay with him.
AJ was determined to have a good time on this date. She didn't want to think about Punk at all.
Viciously she bit into her burger. Just as John had suggest they went to In-N-Out, but the got the food to go. John was pretty recognizable, especially since he was still wearing all his gear from the night. So they took the food to an empty parking lot. Sitting on the hood of the rental vehicle.
John nervously shifted next to her, but she chose not to pay attention. "Umm AJ...How's the pregnancy going?" He asked. Trying to create some sort of conversation over the deafening silence.
"Great!" She cheered not sounding as enthusiastic as the word implied. "My morning sickness is almost gone. I'm starting to gain some more weight, I'm having a boy-"
"Seriously, damn I bet girl." John groaned.
AJ promptly slapped his leg hard.
"Oww. What was that for? Everyone was betting." John defended rubbing the sore spot from the area she had abused.
"Everyone is betting against me. I say I'm having a boy and a bunch of people are say girl. Derrick even bet that I would have twins." AJ complained.
"Well at least with twins you could have one of each..." He said timidly not wanting any more abuse.
"No, Derrick bet it would be twin girls...I should put him in a match against Tensai." AJ thought out loud sounding very vengeful.
"Don't do anything that crazy." John said letting a small chuckle out. "So Colt's been around a lot." John said changing the subject.
"Yeah, he's kinda taking time off. He's helping me and Punk out. Hopefully he won't bail the moment he has to change a dirty diaper." AJ said. The smile returning to her face.
"Well if you ever need a diaper changed you can come to me." John said smiling.
"You are going to regret saying that." AJ said laughing at the almost fearful expression run over John's face. "I won't make you do all the work. Punk's gonna have to change diapers also."
"What's going on between you and Punk?" John knew it was a bad topic. It was a subject he had been trying to avoid all night, but he could not keep his curiosity from asking the question.
AJ wanted to be mad. She wanted to say all the terrible things he did. Like rejecting her advances, making her take those terrible vitamins, making her want more of him. She knew these weren't bad really, but they pissed off and confused her. Tears started falling from her eyes. She tossed her food to the side no longer having an appetite.
"Oh god! AJ I'm sorry, please don't cry." John pleaded moving closer to her. He wrapped an arm around her shoulder.
"I love him." AJ sobbed against John's chest gripping his shirt in her fist wishing it was Punk holding her.
"I know, AJ, I know." John soothed. A small smile on his face.
"Uh oh..." AJ said. Her cries suddenly stopping. The smell of John's cologne penetrated her nostrils. The smell was sickening. Without any warning the food she had eaten came up landing directly in John's lap. "Sorry." AJ said meekly pulling away. A large blush against her cheeks in embarrassment.
"No problem." John said keeping his composure. Not to say he wasn't disgusted, but he was not gonna risk upsetting AJ any further. "Why don't I take you back to Punk and you can rest. Plus I could use a shower" John said. Trying to lighten the tense mood.
AJ gave a weak nod still embarrassed by her uncontrollable stomach. She rubbed her abdomen soothingly. "We're going back to daddy now." She whispered lightly under her breath.
"John, you know when you take someone out to eat...Usually it isn't suppose end in the food coming back up. Though maybe that's how most of your dates go." Punk joked as he looked at the regurgitated food on John's clothes.
"Really? Cause I thought that you'd be used to your date puking after having to spend time with you." John shot back passing AJ off to Punk. "What happened with the thing?" He questioned not wanting the battle of wits to continue longer since he really needed a shower.
"They took a report. Vince isn't giving me much shit for it since the fans around were giving me hell and the security team weren't in place. It'll be fine." Punk said waving off the matter. "Still annoying as hell."
"What so no charges?" John asked.
"Don't think so. Guy barely had a bruise, I did bust his sunglasses though." Punk shrugged. "Well boy-scout, you returned AJ safe and sound. So go take a shower cause you really need one." Punk mused.
"What I don't get a good night kiss?" John questioned with amusement.
"I don't think you need her throwing up anymore on you." Punk answer crudely shutting the door in John's face. He glared at the door a small hope that the door smacked John's face, but he doubted it.
He didn't concentrate on that for long. His eyes found AJ snuggling into his side. "You OK?" He asked.
"Just tired." AJ muttered. She buried her head into his chest. "I don't think the baby likes John." She said.
Punk looked down AJ's body focusing on the area where the child growing. A smile coming over his face. His heart swelling with pride. He looked back to AJ, "I know something the baby does like."
AJ blushed not knowing what he meant. It didn't last long though as he held out the prenatal vitamins to her. She sneered in disgust, but still swallowed the pills with the help of a glass of water. "I hate you." She said no real feelings behind her words.
"Of course you do." Punk smiled knowing that she didn't. But not knowing how strong of feelings she did have.
A/N: I'm not sure how I want to do this story. I have ideas and I was think about maybe skipping further ahead into AJ's pregnancy...But idk. If I don't then this story is going to be VERY long.
If anyone has any opinions/suggestions then please tell.
