"Did you know that we have ship names that are trending on Twitter?" I ask Eric as we walk out of our hotel, "Really?" He chuckles and puts his hood down as I nod and show him my phone. "Oh lord." He laughs and wraps his arm around my shoulders, "It's cute, Enzriana." I smile as he shrugs. "It's interesting, and pretty funny. How do people come up with this stuff?" He laughs and we walk over to the rental car.

"I have no idea, but I think stuff like that is adorable." I say and open up the trunk of the black Audi sedan, "Are you excited?" Eric turns to me and asks. Tonight I fight Alicia and let me tell you, I'm not exactly very excited about it. "I'm more nervous than anything." I say and put my bag in the trunk as Eric raises an eyebrow, "Why babe? You'll do great." He says and grabs both of my hands as I bite my bottom lip.

"Hey, she's one of your best friends. You'll be fine, nothing crazy will happen and if they want to throw in a change Stephanie will tell the both of you, okay?" He says and holds both of my hands tightly, "Okay." I smile and he nods. "I love you." He smiles and puts his hands on my hips, "I love you too." I smile back and kiss him, putting my arms around his neck.

Our kiss lasts a few seconds longer before we both pull away and get in the car, the arena is only 10 minutes away from the hotel so we get there pretty quickly without traffic. I pull into the back and park the car before Eric and I both get out, I open the trunk and grab my bag as Eric grabs his. I shut the trunk and we both walk into the building, "Hi Addi." Mercedes smiles at me and I smile back at her.

"Hey Mer." I say and walk over to her as Eric walks over to Billy, "You excited?" She asks as her and I walk in the dressing room. "Of course, but I can't wait to go home. Stephanie told me that Eric and I are gonna get our storyline, and I get to fight Charlotte for the Women's Championship title." I say and Mercedes' jaw drops.

"No way." She says shocked, I nod and she puts her hand over her mouth. "Holy crap, Addi that's awesome!" She exclaims and hugs me tightly, I laugh and hug her back. She pulls away and smiles, "I'm so happy for you Adds." She says and hugs me again. "Thanks Mer." I smile and hug her back as Alicia walks into the room, "Hey big booty Addi." She laughs and sits down in a chair beside Mercedes and I.

"Hey Foxy." I smile as Mercedes sits down beside her and I start to put my gear on. I slip out of my dress and put on my light purple glittery shorts on, then my white crop top that says 'Princessa', I already have my fishnet tights on so I slip into my white and purple socks before putting my purple Jordan's on.

"Hottie." Alicia smiles and I put my hands on hips, as I go to sit back down I get a shooting pain in my stomach. I grimace as Alicia and Mercedes look at me worriedly, "What's wrong Addi?" Alicia asks and I shake my head. "I've have a bad stomach ache all day." I say and Mercedes helps me sit down. "Addi, I don't think you should fight tonight." Mercedes says as I brush my hair out of my face.

"Good idea, could you get Eric?" I ask and Alicia and Mercedes both look at each other, "He actually just went out, him and Billy. They interrupted AJ Styles, Luke Gallows, and Karl Anderson." Alicia says and I groan, "I'll go tell Steph what's going on and Eric should be back soon." Mercedes says and walks out of the dressing room as I put my head in my hands.

"Addi, has this ever happened before?" Alicia asks as I nod, "It just started this morning, I wasn't really worried about it." I say and Alicia rubs my arm. "Wanna watch Eric's match before he comes up?" She asks and I nod as she grabs the remote and turns on the television, another shot of pain surges through my lower back and I grab her hand.

"Adds, I can't let you sit here. I'm taking you to the hospital with or without Eric." She says as I try to get myself up, she helps me out of the chair and helps me to get changed into a pair of leggings and Eric's hoodie. Mercedes runs back into the room with Paige, "Whose driving, because I think I know what's going on." Paige announces and carefully grabs my other arm as we quickly rush out of the room.

"Well, what's going on?" Alicia asks worriedly as we get to my car, "Either she's got some funky disease or she's having a miscarriage." As soon as the word, miscarriage, comes out of her mouth I stand still. "I'm not even pregnant. Eric and I haven't even done it since April, I haven't had any symptoms of pregnancy, and I haven't gained weight." I say and Alicia begins to tear up.

"Adds, that happens to women sometimes. Remember how you told us about how your mom didn't even know she was pregnant with your younger brothers?" Paige asks as Mercedes opens the car door. "You told us about how she had no symptoms and she didn't gain the weight until the 3rd or 4th month." She adds as I carefully get into the back of the car, "Are you sure?" I ask, starting to cry.

"Yeah Addi." She says and they all get into the car, Alicia starts it up and whips out of the parking spot. I put my head on Paige's shoulder and begin to cry as Alicia drives down the road to the hospital, "You're gonna be okay Addi, I promise." Paige says and wraps her arms around me as a steady stream of tears roll down my cheeks.

Why, why does everything terrible happen to me? What did I do to deserve any of this?

Woah, a whole chapter in one night. Sorry about the week with no updates, I was on vacation and I had no time to write. I know the miscarriage was one big sob-fest, but I had asked a few of my friends that write what I should do for the ending and two suggested a failed pregnancy while the other 2 suggested a severe injury. I was really hesitant and it was hard to choose what one, but I decided to add the miscarriage.

Miscarriages are not a subject to be taken lightly, so please don't try to make it seem like I'm a bad person for adding it in. It's real life and it has happened to women all over the world, my heart goes out to each and every woman whose has gone through that situation.

On the other hand, thank you everyone for the support on this story, it means a lot to me that people enjoy what I enjoy doing. I'm gonna promise a few mellow chapters coming up, so no more drama for a little because Addi and Eric need a break.

Again, thank you all for the love and support. It means so much to me.

Sarah, xxx ❣❣❣
