CHAPTER 81:
The next day, AJ had emerged from the bathroom. She was still feeling under the weather. "You alright baby?" asked Roman. "Yeah, I just needed to throw up again that's all" said AJ. "You sure you'll be alright?" asked Roman. "Because it's just a little after 4 and I'm getting ready to head into the arena." "Of course" said AJ. "Just remember I'll be watching you live tonight so don't screw up." "You're such a teaser" said Roman as he smiled. "Now I'll be back at midnight alright?" AJ nodded as Roman left. She walked over to their bed to sit down again and kicked off her slippers and then she noticed just how much more her feet and legs had swelled up.
"What the hell is going on with me?" she asked. "I'm gonna call Dr. Hernandez right now". As AJ got up she suddenly felt weak and ended up passing out onto her bed, straight on her back.
Sometime later, Roman had arrived to arena and managed to meet up with Brie before heading into the locker room. "Hey Brie!" he called out. "Oh hi Joe. What's up?" said Brie. Roman walked up to Brie. "So how's Nicole doing?" asked Roman. "She's great" said Brie. "Except the part I had to seriously reason with her about something but other than that she and the baby are good." "That's good" said Roman. "I just left AJ in our hotel room." "AJ's here?" asked Brie. "Yeah" said Roman. "We just came back from a little road trip from visiting her parents in Jersey and we also finally picked out a place." "Oh really?" asked Brie. "Yeah we decided on a condo in Jersey City so that we could be closer to her parents" said Roman. "And it's funded by the money she used from her selling her New York City apartment." "What 8th month pregnant woman likes to travel? I can't wait to see if Nikki's like that too" said Brie.
"Be careful of what you wish for" said Roman. "Yeah I know" said Brie. "So what order are you going for today?" asked Roman. "I'm 6th today" said Brie as she took a sip of her coffee. "Bryan is going to be the main event up against Punk but some sort of a sabotage thing is supposed to happen." "Oh interesting" said Roman. "I'm first again of course." "Ooh you're the opening act" said Brie. "That's a rare thing for us divas." "Yeah but I still gotta stick around until mid-show to do a little scare and threat tactic up against Evolution and then I get to go home" said Roman. "Well that's good" said Brie. "How's AJ by the way? I didn't seem to have asked".
"She's great" said Roman. "She's just been a little sick lately that's all." "Sick? What do you mean she's sick?" asked Brie. "She's just been having those Braxton's Hicks a lot" said Roman. "Not to mention she's throwing up again." "Oh poor thing" said Brie. "I hope she feels better soon." "I just hope that she and the baby is alright" said Roman. "I hated having to leave her to come to work today. I just wanted to stay by her and be with her you know?" "I'm sure that they're alright" said Brie. "Please give her my best ok?" "I will" said Roman as he made his way down the hallway to prepare for the night.
Sometime later, AJ regained consciousness to a heavy pain in her stomach. "What…w-what happened?" AJ said weakly. As she slowly started to stand up, she began to feel a sharper pain shoot through her stomach. "Ow!" she cried out. "What the hell is going on!?" She glanced over to the night stand and to her horror as she went to reach the phone, she realized that it was that it was already after 9:30 at night.
"Oh my God!" she gasped. She snatched the phone and began to dial for Roman. It ranged for several minutes before he finally picked up. "Leati!" she shouted. "Yes April, what's wrong?" asked Roman. "I just got back to the locker room." "Something's wrong with the baby!" AJ shouted tearfully. "Ok, ok just stay calm" said Roman. "I'm on my way." The two hung up and AJ continued to hold onto her stomach as the pain would come in increments. "This is insane" she said. After a few moments, the pain began to subside enough for her to be able to get up. "Oh God!" she sobbed. "Please don't let me lose my baby! Please don't let me lose my baby!" She continued pleading and sobbing. These sobs of course would be cut short again with another wave of intense sharp pains which wouldn't stop for at least 10 minutes, forcing AJ to slowly sit back down.
"Please God I know that this baby wasn't made the right way in your eyes…but please don't take them away from me before I get to know them" she pleaded. "I love them, even if it isn't Leati's." AJ continued to uncontrollably sob, despite being physically exhausted.
Roman would arrive 10 minutes later to find AJ on the floor by the side of the bed drenched in sweat. "Baby what the hell is going on!?" he shouted as he raced over. "Our baby…" she started to drift off. "I…don't…know…I….fainted…" AJ fainted again into Roman's arms as he realized that he would have to call 911. "April!" he shouted. "Oh my God no!" He attempted to feel for a pulse which thankfully there still was one as AJ was still breathing, but it was labored so he quickly decided to sit her back up against the bed as he searched for his phone to call for help. "Yes hello please I need an ambulance to come to room 709 please! There's something wrong with my wife and she's 8 months pregnant! Her name is April Anoa'i!" Roman slammed the phone back down as he continued to hold AJ up.
"Oh my God April!" he panicked. "Please don't go. Please don't die." He never left her side as he did so and he continued to worry and panic as he watched his wife slowly dwindle away.
