Brynn took a deep breath as she sat in her locker room, alone.
Her breathing was shaky, she overheard Joe talking to Colby about the marriage and kids thing again and adding to that, Jon almost got stabbed out there by some crazy fan. Her dad fainted in Newcastle, thank god her aunt was there.
It had been a rough week. She raked a hand through her hair and sighed and brought her knees up to her chest and rested her forehead against it
She heard her phone play her message tone and she reached over and read the message
From: NattieCat😺❤
Meet me in the lonely hallwayBrynn sighed and got up, her tears filling her eyes as she turned the corner and saw Nattie there by a production crate, smiling sympathetically at her
"Hey babe," she whispered as Brynn wiped her eyes
"You're okay," Nattie said as she rubbed Brynn's shoulder
"I know it's been a hard week, but you'll pull through." Nattie said
"I'm so scared Nattie," Brynn admitted and Nattie furrowed her eyebrows
"Everything that's happened has me scared shitless. Joe's not gonna be happy without marriage and kids. My dad is so far away, and he freaking fainted, who would have known if my aunt wasn't visiting. My best friend nearly got fucking stabbed out there. What else is gonna happen?" Brynn asked, fully in tears and Nattie reached over and hugged her
"It's gonna be okay, just talk to Joe. Your dad is gonna be just fine. Dean didn't get stabbed, you're gonna be just fine babe," Nattie assured, rubbing her back
Brynn leaned back and nodded, taking a deep sniffle and wiping under her eyes
"Go talk to Joe," Nattie said and Brynn nodded, hugging Nattie again before listening to her
"Babe?" Brynn asked, knocking and then entering seeing Joe fiddling with his foot, he smiled as she entered
"Hey," he replied
"If you're not happy with me, you need to tell me," Brynn said sitting next to him and he stopped what he was doing and looked at her
"Brynn, why would you even think that? I'm happiest when I'm with you." He said to her
"Joe, I heard you talking to Colby about it, if you want marriage and kids. I know for sure I can't give that to you right now. I won't stop you from finding someone who's willing to." She said seriously, Joe's happiness meant the world to her and she'd do everything to ensure that happiness. Even if it was seeing him with someone else
Joe opened his mouth to speak, but his incoming video call sound played on his phone
"It's Galina," Joe said and Brynn nodded, watching as he answered
"Hey Gal," he greeted
"I need to tell you something," she told Joe
"Sure," Joe replied, winking discreetly at Brynn who smiled
"Last time you came over, when we-you know. Well I went to the doctor today, and I'm pregnant Joe!" She said excitedly and all the colour from Joe's face drained
Brynn felt her heart drop, he went to Gal's place last week. Joe swallowed deeply as Brynn's breathing got ragged and he flinched as his bag was flung against the lockers
He ended the call abruptly and stood up, walking up to Brynn
"Babe?" He called cautiously
Brynn didn't say nothing, she just took deep breaths
"Baby, c'mon," Joe said, putting his hands on her waist and she saw red as she spun on her heels and pushed him back, hard.
"Don't touch me," she said
"Don't you even fucking touch me." She repeated
"I came in here to tell you if you can find happiness without me then go ahead but looks like you were one step ahead of me," she said about to leave
"Brynn I swear I didn't touch her," Joe explained
"Then how the fuck did she get pregnant Joe? And how the fuck are you the father?" Brynn yelled and Joe had no answer, that made her scoff
"Pile your bullshit somewhere else Joe," she said, hand on the doorknob before she paused
"You know what?" She asked turning back to where he was looking at her with wide tear filled eyes
"We're done." She said and Joe's eyes widened comically
"Baby no, Brynn please," he begged
"I'm done with you Leati Joseph Anoa'i." She said, not missing the way he flinched at his full name and she looked at him and walked out
She reached as far as the wall outside Colby's locker room before she broke down and dissolved into tears and it was a little later, she was still in the same position when a muscled arm wrapped around her
"He told me," she heard a voice say and she cried harder, burying her face into his neck
"It's okay B, let it out," he cooed, rubbing her back as she wet his jersey in tears
"I love you Jon," she mumbled and he smiled and kissed her hair
"I love you to," he replied, helping her up and carrying her to the hotel
As he watched her fidget and cry in her sleep, he totally did not regret calling Joe every crude name he knew
Hell, Joe was lucky Jon didn't kill him. Good god man. Jon sighed and made some lasagna for Brynn and got some mountain dew in case she got up and was hungry. He called Renee and told her she could stay with a friend that night since Brynn was staying with him. He also went over and got her stuff from the room in the hotel that she and Joe shared, he made sure she had everything she needed. After all, he had to take care of his best girl.
