Chapter 28 Welcome to The World!
The door to Kate's hospital room slowly opened and a blonde hair man slowly entered the room. His heart skipped a beat when he saw her laying in bed sleeping. He walked over to the bed and sat beside her and softly grabbed her hand. Kate's eyes started to open.
Kate: Randy?
Dean: Nope guess again?
Kate: Dean?
Dean smiled: Yeah it's me.
Kate: What are you doing here?
Dean: I had to see you. John told me what happened are you alright how is the baby?
Kate: I am fine and the baby he's fine too. But Dean you really shouldn't be here Randy is going to flip a nut.
Dean: He went home to be with Gracie, I guess she was giving his parents a hard time.
Kate smirked: Now how on earth do you know that?
Dean: Hey with this smile, I can get this nursing staff to tell me anything I want to know.
Kate: I am glad your here, but didn't you have a match tonight.
Dean: Yeah well I kind of walked out.
Kate: You played a CM Punk?
Dean laughed: NO! I am going back I just took the night off! I had to come and make sure that you are alright. Have you seen him yet?
Kate gave a sad face: No they rushed him out of the room before I could even look at him. Randy showed me a picture but that was it.
Dean: He is cute. A little small but damn cute.
Kate: You saw him?
Dean smirked: I told you I can make this nursing staff do whatever I want.
Kate: You think you could get me some ice cream?
Dean: Done!
He left the room, Kate was happy but conflicted with emotion. She was so happy to see that Dean still cared about her enough to fly all the way to St. Louis. But she was married and Randy was at home with their daughter. Why did this have to be so hard, why couldn't Dean have walked into her life 7 years ago instead of Randy.
Dean came back in with her ice cream. Kate sat up the best she could and ate it. Kate and Dean sat up most of the night just talking, the nurses came in and said that he could stay as long as they were quiet Kate was in her own private room so it didn't really matter. Kate finally fell a sleep and Dean went back to the hotel.
The next morning: Kate opened her eyes and Randy was there.
Randy: Good morning sleepy head.
Kate: HI! Where's Gracie?
Randy: In the lobby with my mom, I wanted to make sure you were awake first. Are you ready to go meet our son?
Kate smiled: Hell yeah!
Randy helped her out of bed and into the wheelchair and wheeled her down to the NICU. Kate wasn't ready for what she was about to see really it was one thing to see your baby in a picture but when she saw her son in this tiny box hooked up to the monitors she started to cry.
Randy pulled her close: It's alright Kit! He's ok, they just need to watch him a few more days. He's a fighter that's for sure.
Kate placed her hand on her sons, he was such an amazing little guy.
Later that afternoon, Randy took Gracie to get some lunch , when the Doctor came in and gave an update a baby boy Orton, he would be able to get out of the NICU tomorrow and if all goes well then he should be able go home by the end of the week. Kate was excited. However the doctor did have one concern, the blood test they ran showed that the DNA wasn't match to Randy.
Dr.: Your Husband donated blood right after your son was born just in-case he needed it and well how to put this delicately he wasn't a match. Now it is none of my business what happens after this but I just thought for medical reasons you needed to know that your husband is not that little boys father.
Kate: What? What did you just say? Tell me I didn't hear you right?
Dr: It's in the blood test Mrs. Orton. Your husband is not that baby's father.
Kate sat there stunned how could she let this happen and again. Little boy Orton should be little boy Ambrose. Kate was still processing all of this information when Randy and Gracie came back in the room.
Gracie: HI Momma.
Kate: HI Princess did you have a nice lunch with daddy?
Gracie: It was good. I ate chicken nuggets.
Randy: Did I miss the doctor?
Kate: Yeah he just left, baby boy is doing great and if all goes well then he should be able to come home by the end of the week.
Gracie: What's my little brothers name or are we going to call him baby boy forever?
Randy smiled: Good point princess he does need a name. Kate you know my first choice.
Kate knew that Randy's first choice didn't fit this situation any more but she couldn't tell her husband that.
Kate: Randy you know my first choice.
Gracie: What about me?
Randy and Kate smiled at their daughter.
Randy: What's your first choice?
Gracie: Ryder?
Kate laughed: Like Zac Ryder honey?
Gracie: No from Tangled.
Randy: Well it seems like we are never going to agree.
Later that afternoon Dean called Kate and they talked for a while, he had to get back to work, because they were mad about last nights absence.
The next day they brought the baby to Kate's room, she was so excited to be able to hold her son with out all the wires all over him. She kept staring at her son, not even noticing that Randy walked back in the room.
Kate's POV: As I sit here holding my son, I can't believe what a mess his first couple of days have been. Making a grand entrance 5 weeks early then being in the NICU. Now to top it all off he has daddy issues and he's not even a week old. I am so sorry little guy for all of this. But I do love you so much.
Randy: How is he?
Kate smiled and looked up to notice Randy in the room.
Kate: Wonderful. We can go home tomorrow!
Randy: Well I just talked to Vince and he is giving me the next few weeks off. I will make a surprise appearance at the next pay per view and have a shot at the titles.
Kate was holding in tears Great she thought herself as she looked back at her son, both your daddy's will be fighting each other. Will this ever end?
Randy: Kate I am sorry I've been such an ass about the name thing. I like your first choice so let's go with that.
Kate: are you sure?
Randy: Unless we can go with my first choice?
Kate just looked at him. Randy: That's what I thought so Logan Scott Orton it is!
Kate smiled: Logan Scott Orton Welcome to the world.
