A month had passed AJ was almost three months pregnant. She'd been staying at Kaitlyn's house in Texas. She was moving into her own place next week. She was moving back to Union City, New Jersey. She found a really nice full-furnished apartment including a full nursery. John had tried calling her but she never picked up the phone. She hated John. She never wanted to see him again but since she was pregnant with his child she knew that was unavoidable. Raw was in Texas tonight. AJ was going to return some things to John. AJ was in Kaitlyn's living room sitting on the couch. The front door opened.

"I'm home." Kaitlyn said.

"Hey."

"Hey." Kaitlyn sat down next to her. "How are you?"

"Dreading tonight."

"I can give that stuff to John if you want."

"No." "I have to face him sometime."

"Alright."

"Thank you for letting me stay here Kaitlyn."

"No problem."

"Next time you guys come to Jersey you'll have to come check out the apartment."

"I definitely will."

"Raising a baby." "That's gonna be something."

"How far along are you?"

"Three months next week."

"I can't wait until it comes."

"Me either." "At least I know John will be a good father." She had tears in her eyes.

"Are you alright?"

"Yeah." She wiped her eyes. "I still can't believe this." "Not only did John cheat on me with his ex-girlfriend but he ironically picks the day I find out I'm pregnant to tell me."

"I know."

"It's not fair." "What does Nikki have that I don't?"

"Nothing you're great." "Anybody that can't see that is an idiot."

"Besides my baby, my life sucks."

Later that night AJ was at the arena walking down the hall. She was on her way to go see John. She turned the corner and almost ran right into him.

"Oh I'm sorry." He said. "What are you doing here?"

"I've been staying with Kaitlyn."

"How are you and the baby?"

"The baby's fine."

"How far along?"

"Three months next week."

"Are you staying with Kaitlyn permanently?"

"No." "I got an apartment in Union City." "I'm moving in next week."

"I wish you'd pick up the phone when I call."

"I don't wanna talk to you." "Why would I pick up the phone?"

"To let me know about the baby."

"We can discuss the baby." "What do you wanna know?"

"Can I come to your next appointment?"

"I suppose." "It's next Wednesday at noon."

"I'll be there."

"Let me make sure I make something perfectly clear to you John." "The only reason I'm still speaking to you is because of our baby." "Any thoughts you have of us getting back together can stop right now." "We'll work out a custody arrangement."

"Custody arrangement?"

"Yeah."

"The only arrangement should be you and the baby back home with me."

"Whatever." "Here." She handed him a clear plastic baggy.

"What's this?"

"Your house keys, the love letters we wrote each other when you were on the road, the earrings you gave me for my birthday, t-

"Your locket's in here."

"Yeah."

"I gave it to you."

"I don't want it." "It means nothing." "Just like I meant nothing to you."

"That's not true." "You know that's not true."

"Whatever." "I'm outta here."

"AJ."

"What?"

"I miss you."

"I'm sure I don't have anything that Nikki can't give you."

"I don't care about her I care about you and our baby." "I love you."

"No you don't."

"Yes I do."

"No you don't." She said with tears in her eyes.

"Yes I do and I want you to come home."

"Do you know how happy I was when I got that call and they told me I was pregnant?" "I couldn't wait to tell you." "Then you tell me you cheated on me."

"My timing was unbelievably bad." "I know that." "What I'd done was killing me inside." "I couldn't hold it in anymore."

"I thought I'd be doing this with you." "I thought we were going to be a family." She said starting to cry.

"We can AJ, we can."

"No." "No we can't." "We can't because you ruined it." "You treated me the way every other man in my life has." "Like a piece of trash."

"You know I don't think of you like that." "AJ I love you." "I want you to be my wife and I want to raise our baby together."

"I trusted you." She said started to cry harder. "I loved you." "How could you do this to me?"

"I'm sorry." "Please I'm so, so sorry." "All I want is to take care of you and the baby."

"I can't do it I can't be with you."

"Yes you can."

"I gotta g-

"AJ." They looked at each other. He was getting closer to her face. Just then Nikki was walking down the hall.

"That's why I can't." She said pointing at Nikki. She walked away.
