Chapter 2: The One With Some Guy Named Phil
It was an intense day for Finn as he waited in the hospital lobby. He paced the room while other visitors watched him with skepticism. Finn suddenly looked up as Aj walked off the elevator with a man covered in tattoos.
"There you are! Where have you been? I've been waiting for hours." Finn said nervously as Aj approached him.
"I saw you pull into the parking lot right before me Finn, you couldn't have been up here for more than five minutes." Aj told him.
"Well it felt like hours." Finn mumbled under his breath.
Aj looked at Finn with concern and let out a sigh.
"If this is too much for you then you can walk away, Finn. Phil and I can raise this baby together and-." Aj began to say before Finn interrupted her.
"Who the hell is Phil?" Finn asked in confusion.
"This is Phil." Aj said as she pointed to the man standing to her right.
"I'm Phil." He added.
Finn looked at him for a moment with disdain.
"April?" A nurse asked as she entered the waiting room.
Aj smiled politely at the nurse as she waved her back to the room.
"Come on." Aj told Finn and Phil.
The nurse gave the three of them and awkward look as they made their way back to the hospital room. Finn crossed his arms and stared a whole through Phil as the nurse sat Aj up on the examination table.
"The doctor will be in shortly." The nurse said after checking Aj's vitals.
The three of them waited in an awkward silence for a moment before Finn finally spoke up.
"So are the two of you together or is this Phil dude your personal body guard?" Finn asked Aj.
Phil looked at Finn in confusion.
"We're together, Finn." Aj said.
"And how did uh.. how did you guys meet exactly?" Finn asked.
Aj held her stomach and waited a moment before speaking.
"Well.. You remember a few months ago, right? You know when I found out you had been cheating on me with Sami?" Aj asked.
Finn looked down uncomfortably at the mention of his former lovers name.
"I went to the pub and poured my heart out to the bartender-." Aj began to say.
"I'm the bartender." Phil added.
Finn glanced over at Phil in annoyance.
"I probably had a little too much to drink and-." Aj began to continue before the doctor walked into the room.
"Hello everyone, my name is Dr. Baker." She introduced herself.
Phil, Aj, and Finn all gave the doctor an awkward look. Dr. Baker observed the three of them as she tried to piece together their situation.
"You must be April?" Dr. Baker asked as she pulled a chair up to the examination table.
"Aj." She corrected her.
Dr. Baker gave her a reassuring smile.
"And the two of you?" Dr. Baker asked.
"I'm Phil" He introduced himself as they shook hands.
Aj glanced of at Finn as he mocked Phil's introduction, mumbling "I'm Phil" in a childlike manner. She slapped Finn on the arm, warning him to stop.
"This is Finn." Aj told her unfortunately.
"Are you the surrogate or-?" Dr. Baker began to ask.
Aj looked at the doctor in confusion for a moment. Finn and Phil's eyes both widened in surprise when they realized what Dr. Baker was asking.
"No!" Phil and Finn yelled at the same time.
Aj let out a small laugh to herself.
"Oh, I'm so sorry." Dr. Baker began to apologize.
"It's okay." Aj assured her.
"Then the three of you.. are a couple?" Dr. Baker tried to guess.
Aj now burst out into laughter.
Phil looked down in embarrassment as Finn began to get frustrated.
"I'm Aj's ex-husband. This is our baby. That's just some guy named Phil, I don't really know what he's doing here." Finn told the doctor.
Aj looked over at Phil with disappointment when she saw the look on his face.
"I'm her fiancé." Phil told the doctor.
Finn looked over at Phil in disbelief as his face immediately turned pale.
Dr. Baker looked around the room awkwardly as she kept her thoughts to herself.
Sasha had already gone to work for the day while Becky prepared to clean the apartment. She was wearing her usual black leggings and grey tank top that she always wore when cleaning. As she put her hair up in a pony tail there was a knock at the door.
"Come in!" Becky yelled as she walked across the living room.
When Seth walked into the apartment Becky stopped in her tracks.
"Uh-." Becky panicked as tried to find the courage to speak.
"Hey, are you busy?" Seth asked her.
"Me? Nope. I mean, I don't know.. Maybe." Becky said as she put her hand on her hip and tried to play it cool.
Seth furrowed his eyebrows and looked at her in confusion for a moment.
"Okay.. Do you think you could help me move the rest of my things in? I've already got all of the major stuff out of the way, I just need help bringing up a few boxes from the truck." Seth asked her.
"Why don't you just ask Dean to help you?" Becky asked.
"He's off trying to find a girlfriend for that stupid bet." Seth laughed.
"Right." Becky said in disappointment when she realized Seth was only asking her for help out of default.
"So will you help me?" Seth asked her.
Becky looked over at the sink full of dishes.
"Yeah, it's not like I have anything else to do." Becky told him.
A few floors down, Dean was getting reacquainted with a few friendly faces from his past. He knocked on a door and waited with a seductive smirk on his face as a beautiful blonde opened the door.
"Lana." Dean said in a dark raspy voice.
She gave him an unimpressive glance as he looked her up and down.
"Hey, babe." Dean said and he flashed a smile.
"You never called me back, jerk." Lana said before slamming the door in his face.
Dean looked down in disappointment.
"Damnit." Dean said to himself.
He walked across the hall and knocked on the door. Dean flashed another smile as a small brunette opened the door.
"Zelina, Hey ba-." Dean began to say before she immediately slammed the door in his face.
He threw his head back in frustration and let out a sigh.
In Dean's apartment, Becky had just finished helping Seth carry up the last of his boxes.
"Is that everything?" Becky asked.
"I think so. Do you wanna order a pizza or something?" Seth asked as he pulled out his phone.
Becky looked at him in surprise for a moment. She took a deep breath and tried to stay calm.
"Sure. Pizza sounds good." Becky said as she tried to contain her excitement.
"You like pepperoni?" Seth asked.
Becky nodded in approval before coming across a giant box of condoms sitting on the counter.
"Really, Dean?" Becky asked as she shook her head in disapproval.
"Those aren't Dean's." Seth whispered to her as the phone began to ring.
Becky froze for a moment when she saw the size on the box. She glanced back as Seth's waistline with curiosity.
"I'll have a large pepperoni pizza with a box of condoms please." Seth ordered.
Becky looked back at him with widened eyes.
"Oh god. I mean I'd like a box of cheese sticks." Seth corrected himself.
Becky let out a small laugh as Seth listened intently to the pizza guy in the other end of the phone.
"Yes, I know where the drug store is." Seth assures the pizza guy.
Becky opened Dean's refrigerator to find no food or drinks. The only thing he had in the refrigerator was a case of beer.
"Of course." Becky said as se grabbed herself a beer.
At the pub, Sasha and Nikki had met for happy hour.
"How has work been today?" Nikki asked.
"Very boring. And my boss is bringing in her daughter this afternoon so I have to pretend to be nice." Sasha told her.
Nikki let out a small laugh.
"I wish I had a job." Nikki told her.
"You don't need one do you? I mean John is rich isn't he?" Sasha asked.
"Yes, But I want to do something for myself you know? He's always out of town and I'm just stuck in that giant apartment all day." Nikki told her.
"Have you talked to him about this?" Sasha asked.
"Not yet." Nikki said uncomfortably.
"You know.. you've been in town for months and we still haven't met him yet." Sasha said suddenly.
"He's busy, Sasha. He can't just drop everything to come and hangout with my friends." Nikki said.
Sasha took a sip of her margarita and tried not to get in Nikki's business.
"He's your boyfriend, Nikki. He should want to know your friends.. And if he cares about you as much as you say he does then he'd be okay with you gettin a job and doing something for yourself." Sasha assured her.
Nikki looked at Sasha with an unsettling feeling in her stomach.
Back at Dean's apartment, Seth and Becky where having pizza and beer at the counter.
"So.. You probably didn't know this but I um.. I used to have a pretty big crush on you in college." Becky said as she played with her food.
Seth smiled across the table at Becky as he admired how shy she was being.
"I knew." He told her.
Becky looked up at him in embarrassment.
"Oh. You uh- you knew.. of course you knew." Becky said unfortunately.
"It was kind of obvious." Seth continued.
Becky was now completely humiliated.
"But hey, at least you're over that silly crush now, right? That would have been kind of weird with me moving across the hall and everything." Seth told her.
"Yeah.. good thing I'm over it." Becky said as she faked a smile and took a big sip of her beer.
Dean suddenly walked into the apartment and grabbed a beer out of the refrigerator.
"Pizza!" Dean yelled in excitement.
"Have you found a girlfriend yet?" Seth asked as Dean sat his beer down on the counter and grabbed a piece of pizza.
"I kept getting doors slammed in my damn face." Dean told him.
Becky couldn't help but laugh.
"That serves you right. Maybe for now on you'll start treating girls a little better." Becky told him.
Dean looked at her in confusion.
"Don't be ridiculous. I just need to find a girl that's never met me before." Dean said as he shoved his pizza in his mouth.
Becky rolled her eyes.
"Your refrigerator is empty by the way, you need to go grocery shopping." Becky told him.
"What? There's beer in there." Dean assured her.
"There's no food, Dean." Becky said.
"Why would I put food in my refrigerator when I can just steal yours?" Dean asked.
Seth laughed out loud as Becky shook her head in disapproval.
At Sasha's work she was in her office when her boss walked in.
"Hello, Mellie. What can I help you with?" Sasha asked.
"My daughter is here." Mellie said as she shut Sasha's office door.
Sasha looked around in confusion.
"I just wanted to let you know that you are one of my hardest workers. You are a great asset to this company." Mellie told her.
"Are you about to fire me? Because if you are blink twice and I'll quit first." Sasha said.
Mellie let out a small laugh.
"No, I'm not firing you dear. I just wanted to let you know that I wouldn't ask you to do this if I didn't trust you." Mellie said.
"What are you asking me to do?" Sasha asked.
"My daughter just graduated from college and she's e new to the city. I was hoping you could show her around?" Mellie asked.
"Wait. College? I thought your daughter was a lot younger than that?" Sasha asked?
Suddenly, a familiar brunette walked into Sasha's office.
"Oh, here she is now." Mellie said with a proud smile on her face.
Sasha froze in disbelief at the sight of Mellie's daughter.
"Sasha, this is my daughter, Bayley." Mellie introduced them.
Bayley gave Sasha a frustrating look.
"It's nice to meet you, Bayley." Sasha said as she offered out her hand.
Bayley faked a smile and shook Sasha's hand.
"I have a meeting to get to but I'll leave you with Sasha. I'm sure she will take great care of you." Mellie said before leaving the office.
"Oh, I'm sure she will." Bayley said as her mother left the office.
Sasha awkwardly tucked her hair behind her ear as Bayley stared a hole through her.
"You said you'd call me." Bayley said.
"Did I? Because that was so long ago.. I mean who could remember." Sasha began to panic.
"It was four days ago." Bayley said.
"Right. Well I've just been so busy and-." Sasha began to say before Bayley interrupted her.
"Whatever. I don't care." Bayley told her.
"You don't?" Sasha asked.
"Nope." Bayley said as she shut the blinds in Sasha's office.
Sasha watched her in confusion for a moment. Bayley locked the door and slowly unbuttoned her shirt.
"What are- what are you doing?" Sasha asked nervously.
"You're a player right?" Bayley asked.
Sasha smiled proudly to herself.
"Well, I guess you could say that." Sasha said.
"Then play me." Bayley said as she stripped down to her bra.
Sasha looked up at Bayley in surprise.
"You're my bosses daughter.." Sasha tried to explain.
"Do you really care?" Bayley asked.
"No, not really." Sasha said as she walked across the room and pressed her lips against Bayley's.
Later that evening, Becky, Seth, and Nikki we're having coffee at Central Perk.
"He can't even find a girl to date let alone keep her for a whole week." Nikki told them in amusement.
"Don't you have anything better to do than mess with Dean all the time?" Becky asked.
"No, I don't actually." Nikki said unfortunately.
Seth laughed at the girls and got up to get himself a cup of coffee. Once he was out of ear reach Nikki brought her attention to Becky.
"You should go for it." Nikki told her.
"Go for what?" Becky asked.
"Seth. You should ask him out." Nikki told her.
"Um.. no." Becky said.
"Come on, Becks. He asked you of all people to help him move in today. You guys had pizza and beer.. It s almost like you guys were on a date." Nikki told her.
"What? No. He's not into me like that." Becky said.
"Are you sure about that?" Nikki asked as Seth came back with two cups of coffee.
"I hope you don't mind, I got you another cup of coffee." Seth told Becky.
Nikki gave Becky and encouraging look as Seth scooted a little closer to her on the couch. Suddenly, Sasha walked into the cafe and sat down in the other side of Seth.
"You guys remember that girl from the other night?" Sasha asked.
"Which one?" Nikki asked.
"Bayley." Sasha said.
"The one with the nice ass?" Seth asked.
Becky couldn't help but be a little disappointment by Seth's comment.
"Yeah, that's the one." Sasha said unfortunately.
"What about her?" Nikki asked.
"Well it turns out that she's my bosses daughter." Sasha told everyone.
"What?" Nikki asked as Seth and Becky looked at Sasha in surprise.
"And we hooked up again today.. on my desk." Sasha said.
Becky shook her head in disapproval as Seth thought over the visual in his head.
"As hot as that sounds you know this is a bad idea, right?" Nikki asked.
"I know.. But I don't really think I care." Sasha told her.
Nikki grabbed her purse and went to the bathroom while Sasha got up to get a cup of coffee. Becky quickly realized that she was alone with Seth. She took a deep reach and tried to work up the courage to talk to him.
"So.. I was wondering if maybe you'd want to hang out again sometime?" Becky asked as she casually looked down at her lap, not noticing that Seth's attention was elsewhere.
A busty blonde had walked in wearing tight jeans and a black leather crop top.
"Hey, Seth. Are you ready?" The girl asked.
Becky looked up at her in confusion as Seth grabbed his jacket.
"Hey, Mandy." Seth said as she greeted her with a kiss on the lips.
Becky quickly looked away as Mandy and Seth began to make out right in the middle of the cafe. Nikki walked out of the bathroom and saw the disappointment on Becky's face when Seth put his arm around Mandy and lead her away.
"I told you he wasn't into me." Becky said sadly as Nikki returned.
"Come here." Nikki said as she sat down and comforted Becky with a hug.
Sasha suddenly ran behind the couch and leaned over. Nikki and Becky shared a laugh as Sasha tried to join in on the hug.
"I don't know why we're hugging but I didn't want to be left out." Sasha told them.
That night at the pub, Dean had went outside for a cigarette when a raven haired woman approached him.
"Can I have a smoke?" The girl asked.
Dean looked her up and down as he admired her tight, two piece outfit. He grabbed a cigarette and handed it to her.
"And a lite?" The girl asked as she put the cigarette between her lips.
Dean let out a half smile and looked into her eyes as he lit her cigarette for her.
"I'm Dean." He introduced himself.
"Paige." She said as they shook hands.
Dean watched her for a moment before glancing down at her cleavage.
"Do you uh.. do you wanna get outta here?" Dean asked.
That night at Finn's apartment, Becky had let herself in to find him sitting on the couch.
"She's getting married.. to Phil." Finn said hopelessly.
Becky sat down next to her brother as he tried to fight back tears.
"I ruined everything didn't I?" Finn asked.
Becky grabbed his hand to comfort him.
"You didn't ruin everything.. You've still got me." Becky assured him.
"She's getting married again." Finn said as he rested his head on Becky's shoulder.
"But you guys just got divorced. Who could she possibly be marrying?" Becky asked.
"Phil." Finn told her.
"Who the hell is Phil?" Becky asked.
"Exactly." Finn said.
