Amanda had been wandering around to clear her head… and stopped, her eyes widening as she ran to a barely conscious Colin and helped him up.

"Damn, kiddo… who the hell are these people, why do they keep attacking us?" Colin asked as he pulled the small diva in for a hug.

"People I pissed off who won't let it go… I'm sorry, buddy." Amanda says as she managed to help him up and lean him against her… neither one of them had noticed the necklace designed like a chain left behind on the floor as they left.

At the same time, Lily was wandering around when Seth caught up with her.

"Hey, there you are. Kind of startled us when you ran off." Seth says.

"I don't always like to stick around once chaos has been kicked off." Lily says.

"It's not normally like this… please don't be scared off." Seth says.

"I noticed some tension in your expression earlier. They were gonna bring up the fact that after your group split up that Amanda started changing, weren't they?" Lily says.

"Yeah. Changes were subtle at first, I thought she was still adjusting to her meds." Seth says.

"Meds?" Lily asks, Seth looking at her and explaining it…

7/28/14…

Opening his sleepy eyes, Seth knew that Amanda was far from asleep and ran his fingers up and down the 24 year old's spine like he always did.

"You always know when I can't sleep." Amanda says after turning to face him.

"Something on your mind?" Seth asks.

"Remember when I said that someone new signed with the company back in May? I met him earlier, got to work with him… it was fun." Amanda says, Seth having not seen a real smile on her face since April as she had been devastated when The Ultimate Warrior passed away.

"Do I need to give this guy a talking to?" Seth asks.

"Seth, no. Come on, you don't need to do that, he's a new friend." Amanda says but Seth still had that look on his face. "You're gonna find him anyway and talk to him, aren't you?" She asks, Seth nodding lightly… and also noticing that Amanda was fidgeting slightly as a result of the chills and tremors she sometimes got from the meds and pulled the covers closer to her. "I really hate what this stuff is doing to me… it makes me scared to sleep sometimes." She says as he held her.

"I'm here, kiddo… don't be afraid." Seth whispered, kissing Amanda on her forehead.

Just because the Shield had split on Tv didn't mean that they didn't care about each other.

Present time, Amanda's perspective, later into the show…

"No, no, no, don't shake your big 7 foot tall head at me. Be a man, Cass and show me what a solo act can do!" I demanded as Enzo and Finn kept grabbing me to get my attention.

I wasn't exactly sure how I got dragged into this storyline but after The Addiction, The Revival and the Big Show left the ring, things had gone and… spiraled.

When I finally turned around, I saw Enzo with a small sad smile. He pulled his right earlobe and pulled me in for a hug.

"Kiddo, here comes the next part." Enzo whispered before we let go.

"Uh pardon the family fest, but there is another piece missing to this story. Mandy we saw you attack Cass with a paint can to the back of the head." Corey claimed.

I looked at Corey and then at Colin, confused… the fuck is going on here?

"Fifties hair style say what?" I asked. They pulled the footage on screen to see someone who was smaller than me come up behind my 7ft tall friend with a paint can and hit his head.

Once the footage ended, I looked at Enzo and then to Kurt and Colin as I tried to figure out how to explain this next part in front of them as well as a family friendly audience… damn it Seth, I hope you found Lily.

"So this is gonna be embarrassing to say in front of millions of people but I didn't do that... look." I said as I pointed to the screen to see me and Finn leaning against a wall, kissing all hot and heavy.

Enzo's perspective...

Once it ended, she looked at the crowd as they started to wolf whistle.

"See I didn't do it, plus that person was smaller than me and not wearing nail polish." The camera showed her left hand and they saw a burnt orange polish. "Stop trying to make me out to be a bitch, Corey. We're tolerating each other nowadays. Don't push it to me hating you again."

Corey nodded and left it alone before I looked at Mandy with red cheeks and Cass shook his head, a smirk on his face… but Kurt had anger in his eyes.

And naturally so, he sees Mandy as a daughter and that video made him furious.

"Run Finn!" She shouted, the two running.

Third person perspective...

Later that night after Kurt and Finn had a long talk about Mandy and the Irish Demon King's activities, the couple laid in their hotel room after they made love.

Finn was laying on his back while he ran his fingers through Amanda's silky dyed hair.

"Kurt can be scary when he tries to protect you. He's more intimidating than Hunter or your father was when they threatened me because of you." Finn said before the two kissed.

"He goes all papa bear… he still sees me as that little girl and it's hard when they grow up and change. Hell, before he knows it, Kyra's going to be driving herself to college, Kody's gonna be learning to drive… Giuliana's already six years old, it just seems like yesterday that she was that little baby he held for the first time. Sophia's gonna be in kindergarten soon, Nikoletta's already crawling and climbing out of her playpen…" Amanda says as she turned to face Finn.

"In another year or two, we could have a family of our own." Finn says, Amanda smiling.

"Here's hoping the first one's a son… I'm not sure I can handle a daughter who acts like I did as a kid." Amanda says as the two kissed.

"If we have a daughter who's like you, I'm in for it when she starts dating." Finn says before both fell asleep.

Morning started with foggy and weirdly chilly weather… and a knock at the door.

Amanda slipped out of the bed and pulled on her satin stormy blue panties before she stood up, pulling on one of Finn's shirts and yelping slightly when he swatted her right hip.

"Always the playful one in the morning." Amanda says before they kissed and she walked over and unlocked the door.

When she opened it, a set of brown eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets.

"Mandy?! Is that really you?!"

"JoMo…" Amanda manages to say.

She hadn't expected John Morrison to be on the other side of the door that morning.
