Nikki's POV:
"So twins?" I glanced at John snapping out of my daze. I nodded and he smiled, "Well how about that. This is great." "One boy, one girl." "Awesome. I can't wait." John's reaction and Kevin's reaction were completely different. I don't know which is more shocking, the fact that John's more excited to be a stepdad than Kevin is being a dad or the fact that Kevin's nervous. Kevin's never nervous about anything but kids? Apparently, a different concept. John always said he didn't want kids but now? He's over the moon. Which is cute because, I don't know what I'd do if he wasn't. But right now, my concern isn't John's reaction as it so much Kevin's. What if Kevin bails? I'll have John, but Kevin is their father. No matter what.
"Hey, hey." I felt John's hand around mine and I looked at him. He looked worried, "You look upset. What's up?" "What if Kevin bails? Just simply gets angry and tell me I have you and how he's not needed. He's needed but he's stubborn so there's no convincing him of that. What if he-" "Nicole, relax. You think Paige will allow him to just bail? Come on. Kevin's a lot of things but you put a challenge in front of him and he's gonna give it at least 200 percent. This being a father thing? A challenge. If you know Kevin and I think you know your husband, he's not gonna back down from this. No matter what."
"Never back down?" I teased and held my fist out. He laughed a pounded it gently, "Never give up." I went into my purse, "Speaking of my husband, he gave me something while we were back there." "Oh yeah? Should I be worried?" John turned to me as we sat on the couch of his giant house. I unfolded the papers in my hands and handed it to him. John sat up and read, "In the matter of the marriage of Kevin Steen and Nicole Garcia Colace Steen, it is now.." He looked at me with a huge smile on his face, "Kevin signed the divorce papers?" "We both did." John hopped up and hugged me tightly.
Kevin's POV:
"I wanna wish a congratulations to a Mr. Samuel Zayn. Really. A round of applause," I started clapping excessively, "For the man of the hour. Your new NXT Champion! Wow. Bravo, Sami. I had my doubts about you but you really pulled through. Against Adrian Neville. BUT NOT ME. I had to tend to some very important family issues, Zayn. I'm gonna be a father. Something you know nothing about and that's fine, I have nothing against that. But next week, I'm issuing a challenge. It's gonna be you, me, that NXT championship, and the Full Sail Stadium baby! You better prepare for a fight because you know I will be."
I smiled as Paige cut the camera off and said, "How does he do it? You're good. You're real good. King of promos over here." I shrugged, "I wouldn't go that far but I'm okay. Hey come here, I got a surprise for you." She walked over, "Uh-oh. Last time you had a surprise for me, I ended up pregnant." I laughed. She's really good at making me laugh. It's a natural talent of hers. What's love without laughter? "I promise it's nothing of the sexual nature," I said. She sat in my lap wrapping my arms around my neck, "What's up?" "After months of blood, sweat, and tears, I have finally solved our biggest issue." "Oh yeah? What's that?" I smirked, "I saved five hundred dollars on my car insurance."
Paige rolled her eyes, "Our biggest issue?" "Correct." She chuckled and I immediately joined her in laughter. "That seriously better not be it." "No, no. I mean I thought that was pretty important. That and this." I went into my pocket then stood up. She watched me and I got down on one knee, which isn't for a big boy like myself but I managed, and looked at my beautiful British girlfriend. I smiled, "You know I love you don't you?" "No." I shrugged laughing, "Well that's unfortunate because this just might prove how much I love you." "Oh really?" "Yes." "Enlighten me." "Brace yourself. I'm about to get real for a second. Saraya, yeah I'm using your actual name that's how serious it is, you are the best thing since sliced bread."
"I am?" "You are. Shhhh. Don't interrupt. I'm trying to be romantic. Anyways, you're the best. You have helped me get rid of all the negative in my life including my drinking and what you like to call my obsession with ruining Nicole's life. I disagree but I don't like to argue with you. In fact, we've been in one argument throughout our entire relationship and while some may see that as unhealthy, I see it as we're practically one in the same. They say you only fall in love once but I disagree because every time I see you, whether you're smiling or scowling, I fall in love each time. Saraya, you're crazy. You're an absolute fucking nut job and I guess that makes me insane too. We've established that but whatever. Two wrongs make a right and that right would be our child in your belly. I don't want you to think that just because of Nicole and I's history and my extreme dislike of John, I'll be paying attention to my children with her more than you because that simply isn't the case. Saraya, you've accepted me when no one else and I thank you for that. You've given me hope in this world. You told me that just because the WWE doesn't quite know me, that once they do, they'll never forget it. I hope you're right."
I paused and looked at her, "I guess all this is to simply show you this." I pulled out the folded piece of paper and handed it to her. As she read it, she covered her mouth. I smiled as she said, "You and Nikki are officially divorced!" "Either that or the courts are playing a mean joke on us. I signed it, she signed it, we're all happy now." "Oh my god!" She hugged me tightly then paused pulling away, "Wait. Are you okay? I know how much you love her and stuff.." I shook my head, "Paige if I loved her, I wouldn't have signed those papers. I wouldn't have made this grand speech without signing those papers. I love you now. I don't need her. I care about her but I love you."
"That's incredible baby." She hugged me again, "Is that it?" I looked at her, "Well yeah. What else could there be?" I got up off my knee and sat back down on the couch. "You made this incredibly sweet speech on your knee to hand me your divorce papers?" "To show you how much you mean to me and that I'm officially yours." "Kevin," She frowned, "I'm not officially yours. You have to still deal with Nicole-" "For the twins. Not for romantic purposes. Did you not like the speech?" "I loved it but Kevin I was expecting.." She stopped. Where the hell did this conversation go? It took a wrong turn somewhere and I don't like it. "You were expecting?" I asked. Paige shook her head, "If you don't know, then I don't know either Kevin." "What? No that's not fair. Just tell me."
Paige handed me the papers back and stepped around me toward what is technically her bedroom but she calls it ours. I don't get what she wants from me. I signed the divorce papers and explained how much I love her. I don't get it. I explained in full detail how in love with her I am and I am not a sappy guy. That was a hard speech. Especially since I had went over it in my head a few times. But it's not like I do this often. I just say I love you to her and that's it. I never explain what I love most about her. I don't know. Women are weird. I followed her into the bedroom and she was lying on the bed with her back turned to me. I held my hands up, "What'd you expect? Please tell me. Give me a sign. Am I missing something?" Suddenly, a pillow was flying in the direction of my head and I ducked quickly. "Paige!? What the hell!? I divorced her, what more do you want from me!?"
"Newsflash asshole, when your boyfriend gets down on one knee and says he has to tell you something, what do you think I'm expecting!? You look nervous but you gave this amazing romantic speech that I know you pulled outta your ass because you're not romantic. You were sooooo cute, Kevin. So cute! You fumbled with your pockets, my hearts racing, and you pull out....papers? Divorce papers from your perfect precious Nicole? Really? So I'm thinking, "oh okay" but inside I'm screaming because what the fuck? Who the fuck does that? But I let it go cause it's you. My hopes are all up and then you pretty much tell me that's it!? What the hell did you think you were doing!?" "I thought I was expressing my love for you." "Well earth to Kevin, when you get on one in front of your girlfriend that looks like a proposal!"
Paige shoved me out of the room and slammed the door in my face. Shit...
