Damian POV

Letting out I sigh as I drag my hands over my face and through my hair I had no idea why I was torturing myself like this. I know I shouldn't be looking but for some reason I just can't stay away from the comment sections on my posts.

Being champion meant everything to me and I'd worked my ass of to get here. I was grateful for the companies faith in me but it seemed not everyone in the wwe universe agreed.

Everywhere I looked...........

He's not championship material

He's mid card at best

He doesn't deserve it

Hes boring

It went on and on and on, the hate, people tearing strips off me and some on them even went so far as to get personal with their comments.

"Therr you are! We've been looking everywhere for............what's happened is it Erin and the baby?" Rhea asks crouching in front of me.

Moving my hands I notice the drops of water on my fingers. Without knowing it I had allowed myself to cry.

"No.....no mami and baby are fine" I say "I just.........they are going to hate me no matter what I do aren't they?" I sigh

"You need to stop looking at those comments" she says placing her hands on my arms "the number of fans you have that love you far out way the haters. And think of what you have, a woman that worships you, a baby on the way and a whole bunch of colleagues that believe in you"

"Thanks nightmare you're the best" I say woth a small smile and she gives me a hug

"So Erin's good, and baby is good huh?" She says changing the subject

"Yeah Erin is.......she's amazing, she's glowing I've honestly never seen her look more beautiful" I smile "her bump is growing and baby is doing great but the fear is still there for both of us you know"

"It will probably be there until you hold your little one in your arms" she says "did you find out the gender at the last scan?" She asks

"No baby wasn't co operating, laying with its back to us so the doctor couldn't see" I chuckle "but Erin is convinced it's a boy"

"Well it certainly has your stubborness" she laughs "and what about you what do you think?"

"As long as baby is healthy I don't mind but my gut is telling me it's a girl" I say "I have to be honest, the hate, the fear over the baby and trying to make plans it's all just getting to be too much"

"OK first you forget about the hate, put it out of you mind and don't think about it. Focus on you, Erin and the baby" she says "what plans do you need to make?"

"Oh you know the usual, location, cake, outfit......all that stuff" I say

"Waot a bloody second are you............are you planning a wedding?" She asks and I nod "and when were you going to tell me you guys were getting married?  Since when do you keep things from your terror twin asshole?"

"I honestly thought I had..............sorry nightmare" I say

"So spill, how, when, where I want all the details?" She says

"In the hospital when we saw our baby for the first time I just knew then was the perfect moment" I say "I rested my head against hers and said Mi amor, Lo que te pido es simple. ¿Tomarás mi corazón, lo mantendrás a salvo y me amarás siempre como mi esposa?"

"And what the hell does that mean?" She asks "I need that in english"

"It means, my love what I ask of you is simple. Will you take my heart, keep it safe and love me always as my wife" I say

"Awwwww that's so sweet" she smiles "you big soppy sod you. I knew you had a soft romantic side in you"

"Only for her" I smile "I wanted to try and plan the wedding and suprise her with it but it's way harder than I thought"

"Say no more your terror twin will help you out" she grins "now give Erin a call I know that always makes you feel better and then we can get on with kicking ass"

Smiling I grab my phone close of what I had open and dial her number. It rings out with no answer. I try and again and nothing. A third attempt gets no answer either.

"She's not answering that's not like her" I say panicking "somethings wrong..........oh god the baby"

"Relax let's not jump to any conclusions just yet" she says

Erin POV

Grabbing the bags out of the car I was exhausted. What was supposed to have been a quick trip for groceries had taken far longer after I'd gotten distracted by all the baby things.

So much beautiful tiny clothing and other things but I couldn't bring myself to buy anything I felt like some how I would be jinxing  everything if I did but at the same time I knew our baby needed stuff for when it arrived.

Placing the bags down on the kitchen counter I hear a faint buzzing. I follow the sound into the living room to find my phone laying on the couch.......I'd gone out without it and hadn't realised.

"Hey D............."

"Erin! Mi amor! Thank god, are you alright? Is the baby ok?" He asks frantically

"I'm fine, baby is fine, everything is fine I promise D" I say "just breathe and relax"

"I'm sorry you weren't answering and I got worried" he says

"I went grocery shopping and left my phone at home without realising" I say "I'm sorry I worried you"

"It's fine I'm just glad you're both alright" he says "I'm having a shattered of day I've been looking at comments again"

"Oh D you need to stop doing that" she says "your life, your career, your dream is not dependant on them. You've worked so hard to get where you are, you deserve it and it's time you gave yourself more credit"

"I love you, you know that" he says "you always know how to make me feel better and make me smile"

"I love you too" I smile "I need to unpack these groceries and then I'm going to have a lie down"

"You ate my oreos again didn't you" he laughs

"I did not" I protest "the baby did, baby has papi's sweet tooth"

"Well just make sure baby leaves some for me this time" he says "I'll call you after the show and I'll be home before you know it my beautiful oreo theif"

"I am not......" I begin but the call ends I guess I lost that one huh
