We got up early the next morning, dreading the long drive ahead of us. We both got ready in sweatpants and hoodies and made sure everything was packed before heading out. Seth and Dean where not coming along with us, having already left before us. We where not staying in a hotel this time but at Seth's second house. It only made sense that he had one there considering that was his hometown and he visited often. Roman offered to start the drive off and we grabbed a quick breakfast at a diner. "What do you think is going to happen after we talk to Stephanie and Hunter?" I asked, bringing my knees up to my chest after a long period of silence. Roman glanced at me, "hopefully they'll fire them both, get restraining orders, possibly put them in jail for a while even though that could be unlikely. It wouldn't hurt to get a lot more security in the company. I don't care what they do as long as you're safe in the end but I want to get my hands on them first before they go anywhere and I will get my hands on them"

I noticed how his eyes turned dark and dangerous, Roman meant business. When he glanced at me again, his eyes softened a bunch when he seen the frightened expression on my face. Just the thought of Roman going after them was enough to make the color drain from my face and turn my stomach. "I don't want you to get hurt. I told you Roman, I don't know how I would live with myself if you got hurt by the two of them. No doubt you wouldn't be fighting alone. Dean and Seth would fight with you, and I can't have anything happen to neither one of them because of me. I think it would just be best if I left. Quit wrestling for good and just go someplace where no one could find me. Then I wouldn't have to worry about you all putting your lives at risk for some damaged girl who can't even save her own life"

Roman pulled the car over quickly, "Emma Marie Sousa, I never want to hear those words come out of your mouth ever again. You are completely worth putting everything on the line for. Don't you know how special you are to everyone? Don't you know how special you are to me? I don't know how I would live with myself if I let some bastard take you away from me…" he had tears in his eyes as he spoke, causing me to have plenty more tears in mine. I looked away, trying to fight them from spilling, but Roman took my chin and brought my face around gently so I could look at him. "…You are not and you never will be damaged. You are the strongest, most beautiful woman I have ever met and I'll be damned if I ever let you forget it. I swear, if you leave you certainly won't be going alone. We'll just have to pack our stuff and follow you wherever you go".

I wrapped my arms around his neck quickly , "I don't know what I would do without you Ro" I whispered as I sobbed. "Oh, baby, you will never have to find out. Just promise me you won't go anywhere and just run away from all of this" I let go of him and held his gaze, "I won't leave" "I sure hope not" he said with a small smile "you always know the right words to say to stop me from jumping off the ledge" "it's the honest truth". I gave him a small smile and kissed him, "feeling better?" he asked "I will be, I have my superman by my side, after all". He grabbed my hand and smiled before continuing with the drive. "That you do, doll"

After that little moment I did feel a little better. But the thought of them all getting hurt was still nipping at my mind. After almost 4 hours of being on the road, I took a nap. All this Jack/Dolph mess was exhausting me. The next time I woke up the sun had already set, I looked at the time and it was already almost 6:30. I turned to Roman, who looked back at me before turning his attention back to the road. "Are you hungry?" he asked, I nodded. He stopped at a McDonalds and we grabbed something quick to eat. "Where are we?" I asked, "about halfway through Colorado" "I'm sorry, I really am not being a good travel buddy" he laughed "you're a perfect travel buddy, besides since you already slept we can keep going for a little while longer" "yea, true".

We ate our food, used the restrooms, and got back on the road this time with me behind the wheel. A half hour later we stopped for gas. I filled the tank while Roman went to get some drinks and snacks for the rest of the night. "You know, Ro…" I spoke after another hour passed "…if you do get your hands on Jack and Dolph…Can I help you beat the shit out of them?" I smirked. His eyes went wide, "what? A few hours ago you where in tears over the thought of us getting our hands on them, and now you want to get your hands on them?" "haven't you heard, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. I was thinking, and you're right…I am strong. I'm done being scared and wasting my tears. The time for that is over. If they want a fight, they'll get one". He was silent for a minute then he gave me a big smile "I have absolutely no idea where the hell this is coming from. I've never seen this side of you before, except for when you're in character, but I like it"

I laughed, "I'm finished with this ruining my life and I'm ready to do something about it. If it ever comes to happen that we come face to face with them, I won't be cowering in fear. I'll be the first in line to show them what a nice right hook feels like" "alright, alright, if we ever fight them, I promise you can give the first few punches". The next couple of hours went by, the vibe in the car was a good one. I meant every word I said. Everything Roman has said, all these tears, all this worry. I wasn't going to be scared anymore. I was strong, just like Roman told me last night, strong walls shake but they never collapse. I didn't know what the future held but I was positive that if an opportunity ever came where I could get my hands on them, I sure as hell wasn't going to back down. They deserved to get a taste of their own medicine.

Roman fell asleep at almost 10 but I continued on driving until almost 4 in the morning. Not seeing a reason to wake up Roman and go to a motel at this time, I just stopped at a rest station and fell asleep. I have no idea how long I slept but when I woke up Roman was driving and I was in the passenger seat. The sun had already risen, "morning sunshine" Roman spoke, I smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek "morning. When did you wake up?" he shrugged "about 6:30ish. When did you stop driving?" "4". We stopped for breakfast, gas, and a bathroom break before getting back on the road.

I checked my e-mail, and answered a text I had from Kaitlyn and one from Seth asking if we where close to his house. We where about another 4 hours away. I was relieved when we got there. "How was your ride?" asked Dean when we got settled in. Me and Roman shared a glance "it was good. Emma has finally turned into the ex-girlfriend from hell and is planning to be the first one in line to give a good ass whooping to Jack and Dolph, if the opportunity ever arises" Roman smirked, "well, she's known as a badass for a reason. Figured this side of her would show eventually. I wouldn't break her heart if I where you, Roman" Seth smiled, we all laughed "no worries there. How was your ride?" he said "this idiot got us lost" Dean said, pointing at Seth. Seth glared at him "what?! You got yourself lost you dumbass" "I was following your directions!" Dean said, throwing his hands in the air, "obviously not considering we got lost" "damn, shut up. I'm sorry I asked" Roman laughed.

We spent the rest of the night hanging out, not going to bed until almost 11. I laid in the bed in Seth's guest room and turned to Roman, planting a kiss to his lips. He smiled "what was that for?" "just for being you" I giggled. He laughed, "get some sleep doll. We've got a long day tomorrow". I yawned, agreeing, and fell asleep.

A/N: Looks like Emma found her fire after another meaningful talk with Roman. Hope you all enjoyed this chapter. Let me know what you all think?
