The Irish native uselessly clean the tears from her eyes as more comes down.

Becky look once more at the little device waiting for the result to magically change, but no, the two lines were still there.

The woman couldn't feel more stupid and defeated.

The Irish woman hasn't had time to do the test in the comfort of her apartment. She was forced to leave quickly to arrive at a time at work.

She curses herself for taking the stupid decision to do it in her job.

Becky had always been a mess when it came to cry, she couldn't contain her sobs.

A slight tap on the bathroom door make the female go back to reality.

-Becky are you okay? - Asks her co-worker from the other side of the door.

-I'm fine Bayley- Lies the Irish.

-Honey I can hear you from the kitchen, open the door.

Becky rolls her eyes, wipes her eyes one more time and opens the door.

The brunette woman enter the bathroom and closes the door with insurance behind her.

-What happen dear? You're worrying me.

-I'm pregnant Bay.

The brunette freezes hearing those words.

-What? But if you barely know the guys at work...

-It's not from here- Becky says -It was in Ireland... it has to be him, it was the last one.

-You remember him? How it happened? - Asked the brunette.

-Yeah I remember it, but I don't know anything about him, it was a really crazy night- The orange haired woman shakes her head at her own actions -I'm so stupid.

-Hey don't say that- Bayley says taking her friend lightly by the shoulders.

-What I'm gonna do now? What I'm going to tell Finn? I don't think he's going tolerate another of my stupidities.

-Shhh baby, Finn will not leave you alone, he's your best friend and I will not leave you alone, Sheamus will not either, you have us.

Both women share a strong hug, in which the Irish native feels more protected than ever.

Nicole moves with fast steps through the corridors of her work, she had to deliver some new photographs to her boss and she was late.

The brunette enters the office without bothering to knock, meeting her boss who apparently was in the middle of an argument with Tom Philips, one of the photographers.

Alicia always gets her stress out with Tom, which made the older twin feel sorry for that man.

Upon hearing the door being opened, Alicia Fox turns to face whoever interrupted her, but when she sees her secretary standing at the door, she smiles brightly.

-Nicole- Alicia says smiling from ear to ear.

-Mrs. Fox these are the new pictures of the models- Says the brunette, advancing to her boss.

The boss woman takes the brochure in hand and reviews the photographs, examining them carefully.

Nikki tries to hide her excitement by seeing her boss so focused on the project she had suggested.

Alicia smiles from ear to ear and looks at her favorite employee.

-I love it- Says the boss looking at Nikki complacent -You'll be well recompensed for this, you're the best.

Nicole smiles and turns on her heels to leave her boss office when she feels a burn on her chest.

The brunette is unable to endure a moan of pain.

The person in front of her had spilled hot coffee on her chest.

-I'm so sorry- Says the person.

The brunette looks up to find deep and piercing black eyes, the older twin is mute for the hard and attractive face of that man.

-Honey- The shrilly voice of Alicia is heard throughout the office.

Nikki frowns her eyes at those words and then see how the handsome man breaks eye contact with her to look at her boss.

Alicia Fox approaches the scene with quick steps.

-Nicole are you okay?

The older twin nods her head, not wanting to say anything.

-You are Nicole?- Once again, the female listen the voice of that handsome man -I'm so sorry.

-Its okay, I'm okay- The brunette says, trying to look away from -what she supposed- was her boss's boyfriend.

-I was so stupid- Nikki drops heavily on the comfortable sofa.

-What happened this time?- Asks her sister, who entered the room with two glasses of wine.

-I behave like a complete idiot in front of my boss's boyfriend.

-What happened?- Asks the younger twin trying not to laugh and falling on the couch next to her sister.

-I crossed his way and he spilled coffee on my chest- Says the brunette giving a great sip to the wine.

Brianna is not able to contain the laughter that escapes her lips.

Nikki looks at her twin incredulously and hits her with a cushion.

-Nicole!- Exclaimed the younger twin when she saw her wine glass on the floor.

-I am sorry Alexa-Says the brunette man taking his things from the table.

-Now I'm Alexa, if I remember correctly you called me Lexi- The blonde says annoyed.

The little female couldn't help feeling annoyed, it was happening all over again.

-I'm sorry, but this cannot continue- The man stands up and leaves the blonde with the word in her mouth.

The little blonde's eyes began to water.

Alexa had expected a lot from Allen, even more than that Murphy guy who had left her a month ago.

The female wipes away the small tear that had slipped down her cheek and prepares to get up.

-Hey Lexi- Says a male voice.

Alexa rolls her eyes and turns to meet the blue eyes of the Irishman.

-I'm not in the mood Finn- Confesses the blonde.

-Don't worry, I'm not here to bother you, I promise.

-Fine- Alexa lets out a sigh -Go on.

Without saying a single word, Finn pulls out a small paper and gives it to the woman.

Alexa frowns her eyes, but decides to take the piece of paper in her hands.

-And this is?

-Just call when you need something- Says the blue-eyed, then make his way behind the bar.

The raven-haired lady laughs as she throws herself from a large rock into the depths of the ocean.

-It's your turn baby- The female says when she comes to the surface.

Paige lets out a small laugh when she sees her handsome fiancé throwing himself off of the same rock as her.

Seeing him come to the surface, Paige heard him laugh.

Laughing once again the pale woman swim til him. The man takes her in his arms and joins his lips to hers, kissing her passionately.

-Do you like it?- Asks the two-tones.

-I can't wait to marry you- Paige says letting out a deep breath.

-About that- Seth says nervous.

Paige frowns her eyes -About that?

The sudden nervousness of her fiancé causes the same effect on her.

The man with dark brown hair stay silent, without looking at her.

-Seth Rollins don't leave me talking alone- The pale woman scolds him.

-I'm sorry, I'll tell you at the hotel- He says looking into her eyes.

The female looks at him with fear.

-Don't do that- Seth says taking the face of his fiancée in his hands -It's nothing complicated, it's just things that I didn't happened to tell you.

The English woman relaxes her body and lets out a sigh.

-All right.

Seth smiles from ear to ear and kisses her again.

-That you are what?!- Says the woman upset.

-Paige calm.....- Before the man can finish is interrupted.

-I'm not going to calm down, did you wait three years to tell me that you are an heir to your parents' company? Which incidentally is the company that for so many years I passed mocking at.

-Paige that doesn't matter to me- Seth says gently taking her by her shoulders -I'm not the heir anymore, I gave it up when I started traveling, I never liked the tight schedule of my parents or the exaggerated luxuries.

The pale woman releases a sigh of relief.

-And your parents agreed with it?

-Of course not- Seth laughs softly -I'm their only son but that doesn't matter to me, I only care about you and our future together.

Seth takes the raven-haired lady face and puts a chaste kiss on her lips.

-Since the day we met you only bring happiness to my life, I don't imagine a future without you.

-You always know what to say- Paige says smiling.

The couple stay in silent for a long time, just hugging each other.

-I missed something else- Seth confessed.

Paige opens her eyes to look at him.

-My mother- Says the two-toned with difficulty -She wants us to marry in New York and she wants to meet you.

Paige's heart begins to beat at an accelerated pace.

-Okay, suppose this would have to happen sooner or later- Seth smiles from ear to ear and takes her in his arms making them turn in circles.

The contagious laughter of the raven-haired lady is heard throughout the room.

Carmella found herself sitting at the bar of a Bar drinking alone.

She didn't worry about the time since her apartment was only one street away.

The blonde had thought about going out with her friends, but then she remembered that she didn't have them, the only friends she had they were also friends with her ex-boyfriend and being close to people who remind her of him or moments they had spent together was the last thing she wanted.

After a week of breakup Carmella was tired of her monotonous schedule and decided to go out on her own and intoxicate her body and mind.

-Shit- The blonde says when she feels that last sip of vodka made her look fuzzy.

-Look who we have here? Feeling regrets for leaving me?

Carmella rolls her eyes and feels her whole body burn at the sound of that voice.

-The only thing I regret is having let you enter in my life idiot- The blonde turns with difficulty to find nothing more and nothing less than Dean Ambrose, her nightmare since a week ago.

-Aww In a bad mood? Do you want me to fix it like in the old days?- Says the man approaching dangerously.

Carmella had realized that her ex was almost or more drunk than she was which made her want to vomit.

-Get lost idiot- The blonde pushes him hard, managing to keep him away from her.

The long-haired blonde tried to escape, but Dean took her arm and stamped her against his body.

-You already have another? I would not be surprised... I'm not that surprise actually.

-Let go of me dick head you hurting me- Says the female, ignoring his comment.

-For what? So you can go and...

-I think the lady told you to stay away- Says a male voice.

The former couple turn their heads to meet the presence of a tall man.

Dean decides to release his ex-girlfriend and approach the man threateningly.

-Or what?

-Or I'll have to take care of you in other way- That man comes closer to Dean intimidating him.

-So this is the idiot that you're sleeping with now?- Dean looks at his ex, who was rubbed her wrists.

Carmella was going to open her mouth to insult him but was interrupted.

-Any problem with that?- Says the tall man.

After a few seconds of intense glances between Dean and that man, the first mentioned decides to speak.

-No- Dean looks at his ex with a mocking smile and walks away.

The man with long dark hair approaches the blonde.

-You're okay?

-Thanks- Carmella looks at the man  cautiously and moves away from him.

The blond woman runs out of the bar with difficulty, disappearing from the sight of the tall man.
