"Hello." Vince said as Gracie came into gorilla with Becky.
"Hello." Gracie said through her mask.
"What's this?" Vince asked.
"No germs." Gracie said.
"Her doctor wants her to be extra careful when she's around lots of people so she doesn't relapse, her lungs need time to fully heal." Becky said.
"I see." Vince said. "Come to watch your mommy beat up Kairi?"
"Yeah, but they're going to cheat." Gracie said. "Mommy said it makes the fight back better."
"It does." Vince said with a chuckle.
"Seth has to warm up for his match so can she hang out here?" Becky asked.
"Of course, you can sit here next to me and watch on the screen." Vince said.
"Thank you." Gracie said.
Becky smiled and kissed her cheek helping her into the seat. After that she put her title on and waited for her cue to go. After doing her promo in the ring Kairi and Asuka came to the ring. They had worked out how things were going to go and they pulled off a great match and keep fuel on the match happening Sunday.
"Are you okay?" Gracie asked.
"I'm good." Becky said.
"Daddy." Gracie said seeing him come in.
"There's my good luck charm." Seth said scooping her up.
"So you're the holder of the charm?" Murphy said.
"Yep." Gracie said. "Mommy my wand."
Becky smiled and handed her the little wand she had made over the week at home.
"Luck." She said lightly touching all four guys head.
"Now we're ready." Seth said.
Becky smiled and took Gracie.
"Have fun." Gracie said.
"We will." Seth said.
"Bring me a new title." Gracie said.
"We will." Seth said. "Come on boys, you heard the girl, have fun and a new title."
Everyone nodded and his match go under way. After it was over they had to go right to a back stage interview so Becky held Gracie back while they did what was needed.
"We're clear." The camera man said.
"Daddy." Gracie said running up.
"As you wished." Seth said putting the belt over her shoulder.
"Thank you." She said. "I know you can't see it, but I am smiling."
"I can tell because your eyes light up." Seth said. "How does it feel?"
"Great." She said. "Mommy."
Becky smiled and came over and placed her title on Gracie's other shoulder.
"Gracie two belts." Murphy said.
"Like mommy and daddy." Gracie said.
"What a lucky girl." Murphy said.
"Thank you." Gracie said.
"Okay time to clean up and head to the airport." Becky said.
"I got her." Charlotte said as Gracie climbed into her lap. "She going to tell me all about the cool presents she got from Fiji."
"Okay." Becky said.
She headed into the showers while Gracie told Charlotte about the little dolls, the clothes and noise makers she got.
"How is she?" Becky asked seeing Gracie out in Charlotte's shoulder.
"She said she was tired." Charlotte said. "Just passed out on me."
"It is late." Becky said.
"Andrade already took my bags out so I can walk with you." Charlotte said.
"Okay." Becky said slipping her shoes on and putting her things away.
"What is this?" Andrade said.
"Someone fell asleep on Aunty Charlotte." Becky said.
"I see." Andrade said. "I too like falling asleep on her."
Seth found them and they walked out to the rental. Charlotte put Gracie in her seat and Andrade told her how to do the buckles.
"I have lots of family, I know this." Andrade said.
"Si." Charlotte said making him smile.
"Night sweet girl." Charlotte said kissing her forehead.
"Night Tia." Gracie said. "Night Tio."
"Buenas Noches." Andrade said.
"All buckled and ready to go." Charlotte said.
"See you two in Houston." Becky said.
"Yes, I got a Rumble to win." Charlotte said.
Becky smiled and they loaded in the car and headed to the airport.
"No." Gracie whined as Becky moved.
"I gotta go potty." Becky said kissing her head. "Cuddle daddy."
"Daddy." Gracie whined.
Seth chuckled and reached out and moved her to him and she cuddled right into him asleep.
After using the bathroom she cleaned up and walked back to the bedroom with see Gracie patting the bed. Smiling she walked over and laid back down letting Gracie find her.
"Mommy." Gracie whined. "Cuddle."
Becky smiled and moved closer cuddling her along with Seth.
"Someone is feeling very needy this morning." Seth said.
"Me." Gracie said. "I sorry."
"There is no need to be sorry baby." Seth said. "Are you feeling okay?"
"I don't feel sick, just clingy." Gracie said.
"That's okay." Becky said. "We did get in late last night."
"We did." Seth said.
"Plus you've been away from me a lot." Gracie said.
"I know sweet girl." Seth said lifting her onto his chest. "It was hard for us to be away from you."
"Welly?" Gracie asked.
"It was, you are our sweet girl." Becky said moving closer. "Being away from you feels like a part of us is missing."
"You know we love you right?" Seth said.
"Yes." Gracie said.
"Because we do, now we know we weren't there when you were a baby but we love you like you came from us." Becky said.
"I love you like that too." Gracie said. "My mama once said I was born to her because the world needed me, but I was also born for a mommy and dadd that didn't know me yet."
"Very wise your mama was." Becky said. "I fell in love with you the moment I met you."
"When did you know you loved me daddy?" Gracie asked.
"Well I knew I cared about you the first time you drooled on my shirt as I carried you back to your mama's room after Roman read everyone a story and you fell asleep on Becky." Seth said. "But the first time I know I loved you was when you were curled up in Becky's arms the first time we took you with us to the hotel. You looked up at me with your big beautiful eyes and smiled."
"I remember that night." Gracie said. "We had banana pancakes for dinner."
"We did." Becky said.
"Can we have them for breakfast?" Gracie asked sitting up. "I am getting hungry."
"We can." Becky said.
"Mommy." Gracie said.
"Yes." Becky asked.
"You and daddy will still love me when you have a baby right?" Gracie asked.
"We most definitely will." Becky said. "You are our first baby."
"Okay." Gracie said.
"Do you worry about that?" Seth asked.
"A little." Gracie said.
"My sweet girl." Seth said sitting up. "You know families come in so many different ways, but the one thing that makes them family is the love they share. A baby is just more to love and he or she will love you, you will be an amazing big sister."
"I will?" Gracie said.
"You will, I am still learning to be a big brother to Michael and Beth. It takes time, there is no manual on how to do it." Seth said. "We learn as we go."
"We're always learning." Gracie said.
"We are." Becky said. "Breakfast will be up shortly."
"Yay." Gracie said bouncing in Seth's stomach.
"No fair." Seth teased.
"Sorry." Gracie said. "Sneak attack."
Seth chuckled and sat up and kissed her fore head.
"I think after breakfast someone needs a bubble bath." Seth said sniffing Gracie.
"What do you I pect, I was at TV all day yesterday and then stuck in a plane with god knows how many people and you think I am going to smell like roses after that?" Gracie said like Becky did when he teased her about smelling making Becky go into a fit of giggles while Seth tried to fight it.
"You sound just like your mother." Seth said.
"Thank you." Gracie said smirking and Seth lost it.
After breakfast Gracie took a long bubble bath making sure to scrub twice.
"Okay, I stink free." Gracie said jumping in Seth.
"Let's see about that?" Seth teased sniffing her.
"Well?" Gracie asked putting her hands on her hips.
"Stink free." Seth said.
Gracie smiled and messed up his hair and then jumped up and ran to get dressed.
"That girl." He chuckled.
"Energy power of the sun." Becky said. "With sassiness to boot."
"I'll say." Seth chuckled.
"Mommy?" Gracie said coming back in dressed.
"Yes." Becky asked.
"What are we doing today?" She asked.
"Well we thought we might let you choose." Becky said. "It's Gracie's day,"
"Yay." She cheered.
"Any ideas?" Seth asked.
"Can we go see the fishies?" Gracie asked.
"The aquarium." Becky asked and she nodded.
"Sounds good to me." Seth said as there was a knock on the door.
"Uncle Josh." Gracie said as she helped Seth open the door. "Aunt Jen."
"Hey kiddo." Josh said. "What's up?"
"It's Gracie's day." Gracie said.
"What is Gracie's day?" Josh asked.
"We are going to the aquarium." Gracie said. "I picked."
"I see." Josh said. "Are we invited?"
"Of course you are." Gracie said.
"Let's go get you ready." Becky said.
"Okay." Gracie said and walked back to the bedroom with Becky to change.
"Mommy?" Gracie asked as Becky ties up her braids.
"Yes?" Becky asked.
"Do I have to wear my mask still?" Gracie asked.
"You do." Becky said. "Dr. Lind is going to see you next week when we get back to o Iowa and if she says you're good to go then you can stop wearing it."
"Okay." Gracie said. "I don't wanna be sick is we'll do as the doctors say."
"Sounds like a plan." Becky said kissing her forehead. "I think we're ready."
"Then let's get out fish on." Gracie said making her chuckle.
"Let's." Becky said.
After joining the others they headed down to the aquarium and they had a great time at the exploring the exhibits and even touching some of the fish.
"I don't think Daryl would like a fish taunting him." Seth said.
"Oh, then maybe I can get a stuffed fish to remind me of our adventure here." Gracie said.
"That sounds like a perfect idea." Becky said.
They walked into the little gift shop and Gracie looked around. She liked everything she saw but finally settled on a plush shark like she had touched.
"This looks like your friend who wanted to eat my fingers." Seth said.
"Chompy may want to eat your fingers but he's stuffed daddy so he can't." Gracie said making him chuckle.
"How did you get so silly?" Josh asked scooping her up.
"Look who my mommy is." Gracie said.
"True." Seth said smiling. "Let's go see what your mommy found."
They walked over to where Becky and Jen were looking at hat we re. Becky had grabbed some cute clothes she saw for Gracie and found a hat she liked.
"Mermaids." Gracie said.
"Yep." Becky said handing her the little kit.
"Now Chompy can eat them and not daddy." Seth said.
"Silly daddy they are stuffed." Gracie said.
"Come on silly ones, let's pay and go have lunch, I am starving." Becky said.
"Me too." Gracie said.
"Me three." Jen said.
After paying they found a great little place that had a good vegetarian selections as well at the ribs Seth wanted.
"Hey, looks who's here." Becky heard Brie say as she and Daniel who was carrying Birdie in say.
"Hey." Becky said standing up and hugging her.
"Came for some food." Daniel said setting Birdie down.
"We did." Seth said. "Spend a couple hours at he aquarium and now it's time to eat."
"Why don't you join us, we were just looking over the menu." Becky said.
"Looks like these two have become fast friends." Brie said as Gracie handed Birdie a stuffed mermaid to play with.
"Gracie this is Brie and Daniel and their daughter Birdie." Becky said.
"Hello." Gracie said. "I am Gracie Rollins."
"Nice to officially meet you." Brie said. "Birdie, can you say hi?"
"Hi." Birdie said.
"Color?" Gracie asked.
"Okay." Becky said pulling out the coloring book she had got at the aquarium and some crayons.
"Share." Gracie said handing Birdie a crayon and sliding the book over.
"That is so sweet." Brie said. "She's three right?"
"Yes." Becky said as they all sat down. "She's be four in May."
"Birdie will be two at the beginning." Brie said.
"When is Gracie's." Daniel asked.
"May twenty eighth." Seth said.
"Isn't that yours?" Jen asked.
"It is." Seth said. "We share a day."
"That's awesome." Daniel said.
"I think so." Seth said.
"Me too." Gracie said making them all chuckle.
They ordered food and sat talking and having a good time.
"Looks like it's nap time." Becky said.
"Me." Gracie said. "Daddy?"
"Yes I'll carry you." Seth said scooping her up.
The minute her head was on his shoulder she was out.
"She had a busy day." Becky said once they were back at the hotel.
"It's always fun seeing the world through her eyes." Jen said. "I think we forget often how the world looks to a child."
"I agree." Becky said.
"So what's after Rumble?" Josh asked.
"Super Show Down fallowed by a quick turn around to Elimination Chamber." Seth said.
"How fast food a turn around." Josh asked.
"SSD is on February 27 in Riyadh and Chamber is March 8 in Philly." Becky said.
"Wow." Josh said.
"I am not going to SSD this year." Becky said. "I think they're going with Bayley."
"Interesting." Josh said.
"Raw represented last year, Smackdown deserves a chance to shine." Becky said.
"Her new character is still odd to me." Jen said.
"To many." Becky said. "But we gotta morph and change, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't."
"Are you two still having all the issues after last years stuff?" Jen asked.
"We don't talk anymore, she and Sasha crossed a line." Becky said. "Yes she apologized but still once you cross that line you cannot uncross it.9
"I understand." Jen said.
"Do you feel prepared for your match Sunday" Josh asked.
"I do." Becky said. "Been using upping cardio."
"Good." Josh said. "Doing double duty this year?"
"No, leaving that for Roman and Corbin." Becky said. "Beside the women's rumble is before my match."
"Where do you fall in order." Jen asked.
"I am the main champions match before the men's rumble." Becky said.
"Nice." Josh said.
"Hey sleepy girl." Seth said when Gracie came into the living room and crawled into his lap.
"I still sleepy." Gracie said snuggling into him.
"You had a big day." Seth said kissing her forehead. "You wanna just hang out here tonight, maybe watch a movie, order room service?"
"Yeah." Gracie said.
"Okay." Seth said.
"Where is my mommy?" Gracie asked.
"She went to run an errand." Seth said and the door opened. "There she is now."
"Mommy." Gracie called.
.hi my sweet luv." Becky said setting the bags she had down. "How was your nap?"
"I still sleepy?" Gracie said.
"I suggest a night in, watch a movie, order room service." Seth said.
"Well then what I have will work well." Becky said. "I got snacks and some movies to pick from."
"Wow." Gracie said.
"Great minds." Seth said smiling.
"Knock, knock." Josh said coming in with Jen. "I hear it's movie night."
"It is." Gracie said.
"Sweet what are we watching?" Jen said.
Becky smiled and showed Gracie the different movies she had gotten and she picked the new Dora movie to start.
They set up the snacks and drinks and had a great evening in watch movies, eating and being calm and mellow.
