Secret


"Lita!" the diva called as she rushed over to her friend as she entered the women's locker room.

The redhead turned around, offering her a bright smile.  "Hey..."

"I have something to tell you," the young woman said as she ran a hand through her long hair.  "Some news..."

"Oh?  What's up?" Lita asked, arching a brow at her good friend.

"I'm...oh, hell...I really think I should call a meeting about this," the woman said.  "All the divas should know what's up."

"Okay...Want me to alert some of them?"

"Would you, Li?  That'd really be a big help."

"Sure...I'll be glad to," the redheaded diva said with a wink and smile.

A few minutes later, Lita was making her way to the buffet room, as she knew a couple of the divas had recently been there.

"Molly!"

The little brunette looked up as she heard her friend call her name.  "Hi, Lita!"  She waved, then realized the other woman wanted her to come over to her.

"Divas meeting - now," the redhead told her, hooking a thumb over her right shoulder and pointing in the direction of where she'd just come from down the hall.

"Oh...okay," Molly said, wondering what was up.  As she and the other woman left the room and headed down the hallway, she said, "Gee, this is getting to be a regular routine.  I mean, we've been having a lot of meetings lately, haven't we?"

"Yeah," Lita agreed.  "And not just us - the guys, too."

"Yeah, how can I forget?"  She still found it hard to believe that Bubba Ray Dudley had actually pulled that pregnancy test out of the trash can in their locker room.  From what Lita had told everone - which had all been told to her by Edge - the Dudley Boy had kept the test in his pocket for awhile until he and Brock Lesnar had gotten all the guys together for their meeting.  Yuk...

They returned to the divas' locker room, where all the other women were already congregated.  Molly's eyes widened just slightly as she realized the implications of this meeting.  Obviously, it was another pregnancy thing, as she took note of the diva standing before the rest of the women, a nervous expression o nher face.  Molly also noticed the way her friend twisted her hands in front of her in an undoubtedly unconscious gesture.

The petite brunette located an empty chair beside another dark-haired woman, Nidia, who gave her a warm smile.

"Hi, ladies..." the woman at the front of the room began.  "I know what you all must be thinking.  Yes, it's about all this pregnancy stuff.  I...Well..."  The diva turned to eye her good friend Lita for a beat, nervousness rushing through her.

The redhead nodded, and she took in the small smile on her friend's face, drawing strength from the other woman.

"Anyway...after Lita's little announcement," she continued, "I decided to see a doctor for absolute confirmation.  Some of you probably know that home pregnancy tests aren't always accurate..."

A few of the women in the room nodded, a couple shrugged, but all of them voiced some exclamation or another.

"I went to an all-night clinic late last night - very discreetly..."

"Oh, wow..." one of the blondes spoke.  "Well, didn't-"

The diva shook her head, intuitively knowing what her friend was about to ask.  "No...he was sound asleep when I left.  And still was when I got back."

"That must have been a relief..." one of the older brunettes said as she glanced from the young woman who'd spoken to the others around the room.

"Yes, definitely...But I got an even bigger feeling of relief earlier..."  She bit her lip, then continued.  "I...I'm not pregnant..."
