"Uh…I've been g-good." I said taking a step back.

"Candy!"

Shit!...

"One of your friends I take it?"

"Unfortunately."

"And…you're running from him?"

"Uh. Sort of."

"Hmm…You need a place to hide for a bit?"

"Um.."

"Candy!"

"Yes." I said quickly.

He smiled. "Then follow me."

*Seth's POV*

Damn it! Where did she go?

When I turned the corner I stopped.

"Wha—I just saw her go down here."

I was chasing Candy backstage. She had run off because Dean was well…

*30 minutes earlier*

"Another win for the SHIELD." I said as Roman and I walked back to our dressing room.

"You better tell me Candy!"

"Or what!? What could you possibly do to me you already haven't done?"

I opened the door and saw Dean holding her up against the wall. Roman rushed over and pulled him away from her.

"What the hell is going on here!" I looked at Candy then Dean.

Dean, what the hell have you done now?

"Ask her." He spat pushing Roman away from him.

She glared at him.

"I told you, the next time I ask you, you better tell me or—"

"You'll beat me up again? Teach me another lesson? Make my life hell?" she stepped closer to him. "You need better material Ambrose, because your shit is getting old."

He was fuming silently. I never saw him this mad before.

Candy is poking the hornets' nest…..if she keeps this up….

"What's wrong? Nothing to say Ambrose?"

For God's sake, stop taunting him!

She opened her mouth to say something else but Dean rushed at her and slammed her against the wall.

She let out scream, but it was cut short by Dean grabbing her by the throat, she tried prying his hand away to no avail. "You make me sick, you know that?" I saw him tightening his grip on her throat some more.

"Dean! Stop!" Roman and I ran over trying to pull him away but he wouldn't move.

"Stubborn bitch. You piss me off…to no end. I guess being nice to you doesn't work."

"You call this being nice?" she managed to ask before he tighten his hold some more.

"When you're told to do something, you don't do it, and you've proven that to me plenty of times now. The only way to make you do things is by force."

"You…c-can't make me te-tell you." She wheezed. "I have….the right to keep….some….things to myself."

Dean looked at her for a second then smiled.

"You have no right." He lets her go and she fell to the floor gasping for air.

"Are you ok?" Roman asked helping her off the floor.

"This isn't a democracy Candy. Either you do what I say or you'll get hurt."

"That's where you're wrong." She said trying to catch her breathe. "I can do one thing, and I won't have to deal with this anymore."

"So you're finally going to start listening to me then, huh? Well that's good to—"

"No. I mean…I'll leave. I'll leave the SHIELD."

WHAT!

"What do you mean leave?"

"That's what my roommate was talking to me about. He wants me to leave the SHIELD….he's not the only one. Ever since I joined you guys people have been telling and trying to get me to leave. At first I didn't think I should cause well…I was scared. But now…after what's been happening lately….maybe I should…"

"Candy, you can't be serious." Roman said shocked.

"You can't leave, you're one of us." I added.

"It doesn't feel like that sometimes." She said softly.

I glanced over at Roman. He looked hurt….and to be honest so was I. Then I looked at Dean; his face was a mixture of anger and confusion.

She walked over to the door and opened it.

"Candy, wait." Roman said reaching out to stop her.

"I'm sorry, I…need to be alone right now." With that she rushed out the door.

Candy…

I balled my fist up.

"This is your fault." I turned to Dean.

"What are you talking about?"

"Because of you, Candy is thinking of leaving us!"

"…So what? I'm getting tired of that bitch anyway."

Thats when I punched him. He fell over stunned rubbing his cheek.

"What the hell was that for!?"

"This might have escaped your notice but we actually like Candy. We want her around, but you, you keep causing shit and pushing her away. Now she's at the point that we might lose her!"

"What's your point?"

"You just don't get it do you? Candy is perfect. She's not like the other Divas here. Hell, the fact that she stayed with this long proves it. Any other girl would have turned tail and ran…but not her. She's…different."

I'm not about to lose Candy because of this.

"Having her with us is probably one of the best things that have happened since we got here. I just wish you could open your eyes and see that. She's not some common slut you can have your way with when you feel like. Don't get me wrong, I like Candy that way too, I think I speak for all of us when I say I want Candy all to myself..." I looked at Roman. "But I also like her as a person." I turned toward Dean again. "Maybe next time you should try to get to know her before you go and try to get her in bed." I turned and walked over to the door.

"Where the hell do you think you're going?"

"To undo all the shit you caused and bring her back."

"You don't know where she ran off to."

"I don't care. Hell, I'll search the whole damn building if I have to. I'm not about to lose her because of you." I slammed the door behind me and started looking for Candy.

*Seth's POV present time*

"Come on Candy…where did you go?" I saw something shining on the ground and knelt down to pick it up.

It was a bracelet with the initials:

C…K….

Standing up, I clutched it tightly and ran down the hallway.

I won't lose her…not like this…not because of him.
