A/N: I only own the OC.

Thank you for reviewing! You all agreed that Brianna should have left when she could...

I was sitting in the room when someone knocked on the door and I knew not to fight it.

"Come on." I said as my voice wavered.

"Hey, are you ok? I saw you run past." Nia said as she walked into the room. I looked up at her and her eyes got big. I'm sure there was a nasty bruise by now from where Elias had hit me.

"What happened?" she asked me as she disappeared into the bathroom.

"Elias and I had words... this ended it." I said and she handed me a cold wet cloth. I pressed it on there, and it helped.

"He's normally not like this, but it's a bad day." she said and I looked at her strange.

"He lost his wife 5 years ago today." she said in a sad tone.

"You knew her?" I asked her and she nodded.

"She was my best friend too." she said and I gave her a small hug.

"What happened?" I asked her carefully.

"Elias was going out with Alexia and they were having fun. He ran into Dean and Renee, his ex girlfriend, and things went south. They got into an fight, and it ended in Dean shooting Elias and Alexia jumped in the way... she was killed instantly. Dean then shot Elias as he tried to take care of Alexia, and left. He hid and worked mostly in South America until his family brought him back gave him the position that was supposed to go to Seth... and he got you." she said and I nodded. I knew that that made a lot of sense with everything that was happening. I felt horrible for what I had actually said to him.

"I'm just collateral damage?" I asked and I didn't expect her to know the answer, but I think that we both knew the answer.

"I think when they saw that you and Dean weren't getting along that they could use you." she said and I sighed.

She started to say something when the door opened. We both looked up to see Seth standing there.

"I need to speak to her." he said and pointed at me. Nia nodded and left. I put the rag in the bathroom and came out to find Seth opening the balcony doors.

"What do you want, Seth?" I asked him and he moved some of my hair to see the bruise. He took a breath and shook his head.

"They are going to kill Dean." he said and I nodded. I knew that I should feel something, but I just didn't. I didn't feel anything for any of them, except Galina.

"So, what are we going to do?" I asked him and he looked up at me with surprise.

"Nothing, I can't go up against Finn and Elias... I made a deal with the devil." he said and I sighed. I nodded and looked at him as he walked over to me.

"I'm sorry, but I wanted to do this once." he said and I looked at him as he slipped a hand into my hair and pressed his lips to mine. I gently pushed him off and he put his forehead to mine.

"You were too good for them." he said and I chuckled.

"And you deserved more." I said and he smirked.

"Can you get me out of here?" I asked him and he looked conflicted.

"Let me see what I can do." he said and I nodded.

He left a few minutes later and I sat down on the balcony. I saw Elias playing the guitar while people milled around him. I knew that I shouldn't have said what I did, but I didn't want to be anyone's collateral damage.

Dean POV

I was in the training room and Brianna had been gone for almost 2 weeks now. I still didn't know what to do... we hadn't heard anything from anyone about her. I was beginning to think that she hadn't made it. I was hitting the punching bag as it busted open and I sighed.

"You gotta take it easy." a voice said behind me and I turned to look at Roman. He was walking into the room and I sighed.

"Do you think he killed her?" I asked him and he sighed.

"I don't know, Dean, but after the history you two have I wouldn't be surprised." he admitted and I shook my head.

"She deserved better." I said and he nodded.

"Are you going to try and talk to him?" I asked him and he sighed.

"I think that I have to." I said and he nodded.

Brianna POV

I was sitting there that night and I still hadn't really talked to anyone. A nice black mark was across my cheek. I had eaten with Finn and Nia on the patio. I had a hard time believing that Finn was such a horrible person, especially seeing how he treated Nia. I knew that he had a bad side because I had seen it, but it didn't seem like he could be evil all the time. I felt horrible for how I had treated Elias and I wanted to apologize. I finally got up my nerves and walked up the stairs. I was hoping I could find him on the top floor. I walked out onto the balcony, but he wasn't up there. I sighed as I looked up at the stars; they are beautiful out here.

"Why are you up here?" a voice asked that startled me and I turned to see Elias standing there. He was shirtless, his hair was up in a bun, and he was in some shorts. He had a hard look and I took a step towards him.

"I wanted to apologize for what I said... I shouldn't have questioned you." I said and he shook his head.

"Go away, Brianna." he said and I walked over to him.

"Why can't you just accept the apology?" I asked him and he looked down at me. I saw his eyes go to the bruise and he almost looked remorseful.

"Fine, I accept your fucking apology, now go away." he said and I pursed my lips.

"Elias..." I said and he shook his head.

"I want to talk to you." I admitted and he sighed.

"I will come get you in a minute." he said and I sighed. I couldn't leave it like this.

"No, you won't." I said and he turned to walk away, but I grabbed his arm. He reacted quickly and I found myself being carried into the house. I started to struggle because I didn't know what he was going to do. He seemed more unstable. He put me down in front of a door and I tried to leave, but he dragged me into a room. I gasped as I walked into a large bedroom; he pulled me towards a large bed that in the corner of the room.

"Elias, stop... please." I said as he ripped the swimsuit cover off me; I hadn't changed earlier, but now I wish that I had. I tried to get away, but I couldn't. I turned to run, but he stopped me as he wrapped his hands around my waist.

"Please, stop." I begged him and he felt him nudge his nose against my ear. I knew that this wasn't him.

"Dean is watching this... he called to talk to me. I wasn't going to show him that you were alright, but you wouldn't give me a minute." he growled in my ear. I wasn't sure what to do or say.

"Now, give me a minute." he said as he threw me onto the bed. I wasn't sure what he was going to do as grabbed something off the nightstand. I felt something cold go around me wrist and I heard clicking. I looked up in shock when I realized that he had handcuffed me to the bed frame. He gave me a wink before getting off the bed. I saw a computer open as he walked towards it.

"Dean, you want to talk meet me in Tijuana in 2 days at the old church in the square., but right now I'm going to enjoy your wife." he said and closed the laptop. He turned and looked at me; I wasn't sure why, but I felt anxiety at this moment. He walked over and pulled out the key. I watched as he uncuffed me and pulled me off the bed.

"I'm sorry I had to do that." he said and picked up the cover. I nodded, and turned to leave. I wasn't sure what to say, but I didn't feel like I belonged here at the moment. I was a few steps away, when I felt him grab my hand. I turned to look at him, and he pulled me to him as his lips met mine.

"I can't lie anymore... I do love you, Brianna." he whispered and pressed his lips to mine.
