The next morning…

The dull ache in her bruised lower back made Amanda open her eyes halfway… and as she started waking up more, she realised she was in Finn's bed as he sat down.

"Morning, lass. How you feeling?" Finn says as he lightly brushed Amanda's hair back.

"My back still hurts…" Amanda says, her legs feeling like they were weighed down by bricks as she let Finn help her up before grabbing a ponytail holder and pulling her long hair into a ponytail.

"I called Hunter, told him what happened but didn't tell him their names… he said you should rest up until you're better." Finn says, Amanda opening her mouth to protest but Finn gently rubbed her left shoulder. "I know you're not used to being off the road but you're hurt, you need time to heal. And we were threatened at gunpoint last night." He says.

Amanda knew he was right… but something was telling her to get out of Orlando along with the others.

"Where does your mind go when you stare off like that?" Finn asks, inadvertently making Amanda jump but calming her when he rested his right hand on her left upper thigh.

"Sometimes… it's to an old memory… others, it's usually me thinking of something crazy. I think that one of them might show up here." Amanda says.

Before Finn could respond, both heard a loud knock at the door. Amanda readjusted her pajamas and wandered downstairs, looking through the peephole as Finn walked downstairs and she turned to him, whispering to him about who was outside.

Wordlessly, Finn grabbed Amanda by her wrist as his mind started up a plan.

Trevor growled and stormed off, about to ram the truck into the door… only to hear some noises in the apartment and run to the kitchen window, seeing a half naked Amanda with her back to him as she was sat on the kitchen countertop and her and Finn kissing as they held each other and her legs were wrapped around his waist after she yanked his shirt off as Hey Joe by Jimi Hendrix played from the small radio.

Trevor ran around and kicked the door open, charging in and Amanda and Finn looking at him with annoyed looks on their faces.

"This is exactly the kind of behavior that sent my niece into the arms of a man twice her age! And turned my 15 year old daughter into an out of control bitch!" Trevor yells.

"Do you mind? We were just enjoying our morning like adults." Amanda says, her tousled curls out of its ponytail as Finn's hands rubbed up and down her upper legs and hips.

"Oh, acting like a dom and sub like your 'on Tv only' characters?! You're a piss poor example of what a couple should be in today's society!" Trevor yells.

"Why, because we're being normal? Look, it's not our fault that you can't form a normal relationship with someone before your insanity chases them off to someone more stable." Finn says.

"You want insanity, huh?!" Trevor yells, pulling his AP Pistol out but Amanda reacted faster, untangled herself from Finn and pulled her Beretta 71 from her shorts waistband, shooting the AP Pistol out of Trevor's hands and rendering it useless. "You bitch!" He yells, the palm of his left hand burning from the barrage of three bullets.

"Add that to the list of whatever pissy insults you call people who stand up to you." Amanda says, shooting again and Trevor screaming as a bullet slammed into his right shoulder and knocked him down. "Now you ain't the type to see sanity as a valuable asset, how about going and getting fucked instead?!" She says, aiming the gun below his waist.

Trevor pulled himself up and left, slamming the door and Amanda and Finn looked at each other.

"Hunter got you that gun, didn't he?" Finn asks.

"As a birthday present when I turned 22… hell of a year that was." Amanda says, switching the safety back on and putting it in her shorts before Finn helped her off of the countertop.

"I have to admit, that was a hell of a way to rile that lunatic up… acting like we were going at it." Finn says as Amanda pulled her black cami back on.

"Eh, he's batshit crazy… sort of like Dario on Lucha Underground. But like Dario, I have a feeling we'll see that maniac again." Amanda says, pulling her hair back into its ponytail… and seeing three small bites on her neck that matched Finn's teeth and looking at him, Finn smiling.

"Hey, I wanted to make it look legitimate." Finn says as the BBC recording of Get It On by T. Rex started to play.

"Well if it did, he's probably gonna end up hassling every couple he finds today and telling them that their love is wrong… whoever his kid is with, I was with someone worse." Amanda says, Finn remembering when Amanda told him about her past relationship with Randy.

Finn could tell right now that Amanda was thinking about it and lightly rested his right hand on her back, that stormy look appearing in his friend's eyes.

"It's okay… that kind of madness won't happen again, I promise." Finn says, taking Amanda's right hand into his left one and lightly stroking it with the back of his thumb.

The two hugged for a few minutes, Amanda's small body relaxing in Finn's muscular arms as he pressed his lips to her forehead in a comforting kiss.

Heading upstairs after letting go, Amanda set out a sleeveless belted romper that had a blue tie dye print on it and checked her phone as Finn started getting ready for the day, Amanda seeing multiple texts from Dean, Seth and Roman.

'Heard about the chaos, you two okay?!'

'Is that lunatic who threatened you dead?!'

'I've explicitly stated that the NXT roster needs more security! What the hell is going on nowadays?!'

Amanda set her phone down and felt Finn's arms wrap around her, one around her shoulders and the other around her waist.

She didn't normally ignore her surrogate brothers… but the former members of The Shield sometimes drove her crazy.
