Side Note: Please check out DaShadowAngel stories especially her story

"Something Beyond Your Control". That story is an amazing Shield story and if you're the type of person who loves smut and rough and dominant sex then read that story. I love it so much. It's a favorite of mine. So please check it out. Thanks!

"Are we almost there Jake?" Punk asked eagerly.

"Yeah we are right here" Jake responded stopping in front of a hotel.

"Alright stay here. I won't be too long" Punk said to Jake, then stepping off the bus and walking into the hotel.

Punk walked up to the front desk to where he was greeted by a female receptionist.

"Hello sir welcome to the Redcliff hotel. How may I be of your assistance?"

Punk placed his tattooed hands on the desk and tapped his fingers lightly. "Um I'm looking for room 225." Punk then pulled out a piece of paper showing a message from the person in the room.

The woman looked at it and nodded "Alright sir let me just look that room up quickly." She typed in the information and found that someone was rooming there.

"Alright sir that room does have somebody rooming there. Do you know the person?"

"Yes" Punk answered openly. "I need to speak to the person in that room. It's urgent"

The woman nodded and was going to get Punk a key card. "Just wait one moment sir" she said as she walked to the back to retrieve the card.

She came back seconds later with another key card and handed it to Punk. "Alright sir here is the card. Please return it here when you are done."

Punk smiled and nodded "Thank you miss..."

Punk walked up the stairs to the second floor. He walked down the hall and found room 225. He stood in front of it and took a deep breath. He slid the card in and the access was approved. Punk grabbed the handle and entered.

The room was dark and very quiet. It smelled like aftershave just as if someone had just came out of the shower. Punk walked into the living room to find an open beer bottle. Punk shook his head in disgust. He then heard a slight bang coming from what he thought was the bedroom so he approached it with caution. Punk gripped the doorknob and turned it, pushing the door open. He walked in the room and turned on the lights. Bingo.

"Wake up" Punk called out.

A man jumped up from the tone of someone's voice. "What the-"

"We need to talk…NOW"

"Punk!?"

"Chris" Punk said almost sadistically.

"What are you doing here, in my room?" Chris asked uncomfortably.

"AJ is in the hospital"

"WHAT!" Chris was fully awake now. "Is she alright?"

"No she is not alright." Punk said frustrated. "God Chris. How could she be alright? She may be pregnant and you are acting like you don't care."

Chris gawked "Are you crazy of course I care. I love AJ"

"You what?"

Chris froze. "I mean I love AJ as a friend. Punk come on you know I don't feel that way for AJ"

Punk bit his lip and walked over to Chris. "Listen. If you are hiding something from me Chris then you better tell me now before things start getting ugly." Chris looked down. "Do you have more feelings for AJ?"

Chris bowed his head and closed his eyes. "ANSWER ME!" Punk yelled.

"I don't know" Chris screeched back.

Punk adjusted his face and looked at Chris. He saw how unsettled he was. He didn't know what he wanted.

"I'm sorry Punk. You know I didn't want this to happen but-"

"But what" Punk interrupted "What did you expect to happen here Chris? You may have gotten my girlfriend pregnant and you may have some feelings towards her now?"

"I never wanted to tear you and AJ a part. You two belong and I will keep saying that. I just don't know what to do. I can't leave AJ if this is my child." Jericho said worriedly.

"You-"Punk was about to say something when his phone rang. Punk picked it up.

"Hello"

"Hi Mr. Punk, this is doctor Stevenson. I have some news concerning your girlfriend Ms. Lee"

Punk's heart began to beat rapidly "Yes you do, is everything okay? How is she?"

"Well the good news is that she is walking and is stable as of this point forward."

"So she is okay?"

"Well unfortunately we ran some tests and did a sonogram and it turns out that Ms. Lee IS pregnant."

Punk froze. He couldn't move a muscle.

"Mr. Punk?"

"Uh yeah um, do you know who the baby belongs too?" Punk asked nervously.

"Well we need to do some testing on you and your friend to find out, but if you come over here now, we can find out for you today." The doctor said.

Punk looked at Chris who was just sitting there staring at Punk confused. Punk sighed "Yeah alright. We'll be there shortly. Thank you doctor"

"Alright Punk. See you soon"

Punk hung up and placed his phone in his pocket.

"Was that the doctor?" Chris asked.

"Yes and we need to head over there quickly." Punk said walking towards the door.

"Is she pregnant?" Chris asked suspiciously

Punk stopped in his tracks. He didn't even turn around to look at Chris. He just nodded his head and walked out the door.

Jericho's heart sank. What has he done? He then got up and threw on his T- shirt and jeans and followed Punk.

Punk walked down the stairs and handed the key card to the woman receptionist.

"Thank you ma'am" Punk said and the woman smiled as Punk walked out and onto his bus.

Chris walked out of the hotel and onto Punk's bus.

"Jake head to the hospital." Punk said and Jake nodded taking off to the hospital.

Chris walked over to Punk who got a bottle of water out of the refrigerator and sat down on the couch holding the water to his head. Chris walked over and leaned his body on the counter.

"Look Punk I know what you are feeling right now and I just want you to know that whatever happens, I will be here for AJ no matter what"

Punk lifted his head and stared up at Chris "I'm not overly happy. This has turned into an episode of Maury and pretty soon, you and I will be on Jerry Springer."

Chris shook his head "It doesn't have to be like that Punk. We can work through this together"

Punk got up and stood eye to eye with Chris "There is no WE in this Chris. We aren't bros and right now I much like to punch you in your face but since there still is a possibility, then I can't do anything yet."

Jericho lifted his hands "Why isn't anything that I'm saying to you getting through to you. I never wanted to break you and AJ a part"

"But you obviously didn't think because you had sex with AJ and this had to turn into a big thing now. AJ is sitting in a hospital bed Chris"

"I know" Jericho splatted "Let's just get this over with and see what happens"

Punk huffed and nodded "Fine"

The bus stopped in front of the hospital and Punk and Jericho got out and walked into the hospital. They walked up to the front desk.

"Excuse me, is Doctor Stevenson here? He called me concerning my girlfriend AJ Lee"

The desk correspondent nodded and called for Doctor Stevenson "He is in that room right over there. You may go in."

"Thank you" and Punk and Jericho walked in.

"Ah Mr. Punk welcome back" he doctor extended his hand and Punk shook it. "Is this your friend?"

Punk didn't want to say no but he didn't want to say yes either. "This is Chris Jericho. He will be taking the test along with me to find out who's the father to the baby"

The doctor nodded "Alright then. Nice to meet you Mr. Jericho" the doctor extended his hand and Jericho shook his hand. "Please follow me"

Punk and Jericho followed the doctor to a room and this was the testing room. It took about 10 minutes to do the testing for Punk and Jericho.

"Alright Mr. Punk and Mr. Jericho. Let me go run these and I'll come back shortly with the results. Please remain here." The doctor said running to the other room.

Punk stared at Jericho who looked a bit woozy. "Jeez man suck it up" Punk said.

Jericho hissed "Listen I don't like hospitals. Never have as a kid"

"Well next time don't play around with my girlfriend and you wouldn't be here right now" Punk said annoyed.

The doctor came back a few minutes later with a piece of paper. "Okay well I got the results."

Punk prayed so hard that it was his and Jericho prayed that it wasn't his.

"This may come as a shock to the both of you but the babies DNA matched up to, none of you's."

Both Punk and Jericho froze "WHAT?"

"I know no match. Two totally different DNA's. It's weird."

Punk's heart fell and Jericho was speechless.

"I don't want to add on more to this problem but has Ms. Lee been with anybody else before any of you?"

Punk looked at Jericho and shook his head. "No I don't think so. I mean, not that I know of-"

But then, something came back to him. The flashback:

"Daniel, I am really sorry for everything that I have done to you in the past and I just want tomake everything up to you. I want you to know that I will grant you a WWE Championship match against CM Punk at WWE's next PPV being Extreme Rules and I will promise you that you will be the new WWE Champion. I always wanted you to be the champion, never Punk. I always

loved you and Punk needs to be destroyed of being the WWE Champion so I am willing to workwith you and do whatever it take to make you WWE's top superstar and the next WWE Champion because Daniel, I love you. You are the BEST!"

Those key words kept popping into Punk's head. Jericho glanced over to Punk who was like in another world. Jericho snapped his fingers in Punk's face.

"Hey Punk, are you okay?" Jericho asked.

Punk's eyes began to water "No, no I'm not okay" Punk turned to Chris. "I think I know who it may be"

Jericho looked at Punk confused "Doctor may we please see AJ" Punk asked urgently.

The doctor nodded "Sure, follow me"

Jericho was still looking at Punk confused and Punk just followed the doctor. Jericho followed as well. They all went up to the third floor and down the hall until they reached room 304 where AJ was currently resting. Punk walked in seeing his beautiful girlfriend sleeping and Jericho walked in as well seeing AJ soundly sleeping.

"Well here she is. I'll give you some time with her. If you need anything, I'll be down the hall" the doctor whispered.

Punk and Jericho nodded. Punk walked over to the side of the bed and sat on the edge of the bed, stroking AJ's hair. This caused AJ to slowly awake to find Punk sitting next to her. AJ smiled.

"Punk"

"Hey sweetie how are you feeling?" Punk asked softly.

"I'm feeling better. I was really tired from all the tests that I needed to rest. I'm glad you're here" AJ said happily.

Jericho then walked up with his hands in his pockets and smiled at AJ.

"Hey there AJ"

"Chris, you came too" AJ said reaching her hand out. Chris grabbed it and rubbed it.

"I'm glad you're feeling better AJ" Chris smiled.

"Yeah much better but in case you didn't get the news, I am pregnant"

Punk huffed and turned to Chris. "Um yeah AJ about that. I have something to ask you and I need you to answer it truthfully"

AJ stared into Punk's eyes and saw how pained they were "Is everything okay Punk?"

Punk gulped and shook his head "Not exactly. AJ doctor Stevenson ran tests on both Chris and I to see which one of us is the father of your baby but oddly the results didn't match up to any of our DNA"

AJ looked into Punk's eyes and gripped his hand. She then looked at Jericho who was agreeing with everything that Punk said. "Now what I need you to tell me is if you had sex with anyone else before me?"

AJ bowed her head to try and hide the guilt. She couldn't bear to hurt Punk again.

"April please, I need to know the truth. I promise you, no matter what, we'll get through this" Punk said cupping her face.

AJ lifted her head and nodded "D-Daniel Bryan" she stuttered.

Punk's heart sank once again. Jericho's eyes widened and were shocked.

"Why didn't you tell me" Punk asked heartbroken once again.

"Because I didn't want to break your heart and I know I've done that so many times but I couldn't bear to do it again." AJ said starting to cry.

Punk huffed and wiped her tears away "AJ please, don't cry. It's okay. We will get through this"

"What about Daniel?"

"We will have to tell him, together" Punk said holding AJ's hand. AJ nodded and Punk kissed her head.

"Do you know when you will be able to get released?" Punk asked

"Sometime tomorrow." AJ said adjusting herself in the bed.

Punk nodded "Okay well I guess I'll come get you tomorrow"

AJ nodded and kissed Punk's hand "I love you Phil"

Punk looked into AJ's eyes and smiled "I love you too April" and Punk kissed AJ on her lips and walked out.

"Goodbye AJ" Jericho said leaning over to hug AJ

"Goodbye and sorry about this Chris"

Chris looked at AJ confused "What you sorry about?"

"I know Punk probably blamed you for all of this. Even after everything, it wasn't even your child so I'm sorry"

Jericho took AJ's hand and bent down "Don't apologize AJ because my night with you was special. And I'm glad I got to help you out"

AJ smiled "Thanks Chris"

Chris smiled and left the room.

Punk was talking to the doctor and Chris waited on the sidelines. Punk shook the doctor's hand and walked back to Jericho.

"So what happens from here?" Jericho asked Punk who had his hands in his pockets.

"She will be released tomorrow afternoon so I'll come get her then and from there we will go talk to Daniel" Punk said.

Jericho nodded "How you think Daniel is going to take it?"

Punk shrugged "I don't know but I have a feeling there is more to this story Chris. I just don't know how much more I can take of it"

Jericho gave Punk that look.

"Don't worry. I would never leave AJ again. I promised that to AJ. I love her too much. We will get through this. Might take some time but we will get through it" Punk said scratching his head. "Do you need a ride back to the hotel?" Punk asked

"If you don't mind"

"Come on. I'll take you there. It's the least I can do for being such a jerk to you" Punk patted Jericho on the back.

"Yeah but we didn't know."

Punk nodded and Chris followed Punk back out the hospital and got onto the bus. They drove back to the hotel and Punk shook Jericho's hand.

"Have a good night" Punk said smiling.

"You too. Best of luck tomorrow" Jericho said and left the bus and walked back into the hotel.

Punk went up to Jake and told him the news and told him to park a block away from the hospital. Tomorrow was going to be a long day.
