Last night, Copper Jacks Nightclub...
Lovin Every Minute Of It by Loverboy played as Finn did a few more shots of tequila before crouching down to where Amanda was stretched out on the bar and left more light kisses and bites on her toned abdomen that had salt sprinkled onto it, Amanda leaning her head back and closing her eyes as she let out a soft moaning sound when he went lower, her jeans pulled down partly and Finn biting her inner thighs too, the top of his head lightly brushing between Amanda's legs and her thighs carefully wrapping around his head, her legs resting on his back.
"What in the hell has gotten into those two?" Konnor asks with a slight laugh.
"One too many tequila shots, a game of truth of dare and now I feel like we're in some sort of online X-rated video." Baron says before he saw Finn trailing his lips back up Amanda again.
"I'll say it again, the Demon King is a fucking lightweight." Viktor says with a chuckle, catching the unfolding scene in front of him on his phone as Finn took the piece of lime out of Amanda's mouth with his own and tossed it aside at the same time that Seth walked into the nightclub, also looking to unwind.
"Doesn't seem to bother the Demon Mistress though…" Joe says as Amanda started running her fingers through Finn's hair… before Finn screamed as he was snatched off of Amanda, who pulled her jeans back up and fixed them before ran at Seth but she was grabbed by Konnor.
"Damn it, let go of me! He's gonna hurt Finn!" Amanda yelled as she fought against Konnor but he maintained his tight grip on her even when she elbowed him in the face and Konnor screamed as his nose broke and he fell, yelling out in pain after Amanda punched him in the ribs.
"Put your hands and lips on my Shield sister, huh boy?!" Seth growled, Konnor screaming again as Amanda grabbed him by his right arm and spun him around, launching the Ascension member part of the way across the bar before taking the tequila bottle and bashing it over the Architect's head, forcing him to let the Demon King go.
Thinking quickly, the Demon Mistress helped Finn up and grabbed her white leather jacket and Kiss: Hot In The Shade tour tank top and her and Finn left the bar as the bartender aimed a shotgun at them.
"Well, that's the end of that party." Amanda says after shoving her tank top and jacket back on.
"Yeah… but hey, plenty of other bars in this part of town." Finn says, the two leaving.
"Told you it was a bad idea to come over here." Baron says, him and Viktor helping Seth and Konnor up.
"And now I know why they say that messing with Mandy will get you seriously hurt!" Konnor says as he saw glass shards sticking out of his arms.
Present time...
"Have you lost your damn mind, Paul Michael Levesque?!"
Hunter knew he was in for it now, he had known that voice for nearly 20 years… he slowly turned, seeing Stephanie with her arms crossed and steel blue eyes burning a hole right through his hazel ones.
"About the spanking I gave him-" Hunter starts to say.
"I'm not pissed about that, it's what it's done after! She's back to being silent again!" Stephanie says.
In the locker room, Amanda found herself curled up on the couch with her head in Finn's lap as he lightly ran his right hand along her right side and back… he really didn't have much experience in helping anyone cope with this.
But from what he knew from her and what the others had told him, Amanda had gone silent three times before… once when she was 17, the second when she was 23 and the last when she was 24.
But it was the last time that truly sent him into his overprotectiveness of the young diva.
12/4/14, Full Sail University, 3 hours before NXT taping…
"Sami, do you hear that?" Finn asks as his and Sami's heads snapped up, the arguing getting louder. A sickening crashing sound caught their attention after they exited locker room, seeing the back and right side of Amanda's head hit the mirror. Sami and Finn ran over to them, Sami shoving Corey back as Finn crouched down to check on a now bleeding Amanda.
It wasn't just her head and face that hit the mirror… Amanda had a glass shard sticking out of her right shoulder, which had old scar damage from an accident when she was 16.
"Don't touch it, we'll let the doctor sort it out." Finn whispered when Amanda tried to yank the shard out.
"It's not her fault that your concussion issues forced your wrestling career to stop!" Sami yelled at Corey.
"How is it fair that she has similar neurological issues and still gets to wrestle?!" Corey shouts, Sami punching him and knocking Corey down. Corey stood up, his mouth bleeding, and stormed off as Sami crouched down next to Finn and Amanda.
Amanda was blinking her tears away, shaken up violently to the point where she wasn't talking. It had all hit her too fast and it was frightening seeing Corey like that.
Finn slinked one arm under Amanda's knees and the other around her back, easily picking her up because of how light she was compared to him and Sami, the two taking Amanda to the medical room.
The quiet was too eerie and Finn rubbed his right hand up and down Amanda's back… the tiny brunette looked at him.
"Lost too many because of head injuries… the earliest one I remember was…" Amanda says, Finn realising it.
"Owen Hart…" Finn says, putting it together that Amanda had attended the 1999 Over The Edge pay per view.
"Life can be a cruel thing at times, taking away a kind hearted person… I had actually met him that night and talked to him. Little did I know, it was the only time I would be able to…" Amanda says, tears streaming down her face as the two hugged.
Present time…
"Mandy…" Finn said, his voice barely above a whisper as he lightly stroked her hair.
Amanda sat up, her hazel eyes looking at his blue ones before they hugged.
If they had it their way, they'd never feel pain again… but as she had told him a year ago, life can be cruel.
