Authors Note- Thanks for the reviews you guys! Like I said it means a lot and I'm glad that I was able to get this far and I can't wait to get father because I am a couple of chapters away from 30 and. Then I will be making my way to 40, I got two PPV's to do before I hit WrestleMania and I already planned out Ellie's entrance. But anyway, I got a couple chapters for you guys again so here we go!"
Pharya laid down on her bed as she was video chatting Finn from her lap top.
"I really just don't see why you and Pam don't just date already. You know you like her." Pharya smirked.
"Hush up, she has a boyfriend and she is happy so we will leave it as that." Finn says.
She rolled her eyes. "Whatever you say Devitt."
"Whoa using my last name on me." His hands went up in defense. "You know I realized that you never once called me by my first name."
"You want me to call you Fergal?" Her brow raised.
"No never mind." He shook his head. "Keep calling me Finn or Devitt."
"I was gonna do it with or without your permission man." Pharya says.
Finn chuckled. "Of course you are. Where are you? I thought you would be over Colby's place or something."
"Nah I'm going over there tomorrow. I was to tired today after cleaning this place."
"I hate that you stay in there, it's nothing but bad memories for you in there." Finn said sternly. "Especially since I personally had to come get you out of there from you know who."
"Yeah, I know." Pharya looked down.
Flashback
Pharya ran down the steps of the house when she heard the doorbell go off followed by pounding fist on the door. She put her black hoodie on as she got to the door and pulled her hair out the jacket.
Standing up on her tippy toes, she looked out the peephole and saw it was Finn and quickly opened the door.
Finn rushed in making her stumble back. "Where the hell is he?" He looked around before looking back to see her slouched on the wall, he went over to her. "Pharya, where did Ross go?"
"He left an hour ago." Pharya said quietly. "I don't know when he is coming back so can we just leave."
Finn bent over to look at her, putting both hands on her shoulders he saw she had a black eye and a bruise on her cheek. "Why didn't you just listen to Allen when he said to not come back here or your brother? Look what he did to you...again."
She has tears in her eyes. "But he-"
"I don't care what he promised, if he did it before then he will do it again. What if I wasn't already two hours from Chicago, you would have stayed here and let him hit on you again?" He asked, she started crying and shaking her head. "Pharya this." He motioned to her face. "This is not a guy show you he loves you...I don't care what you did or what he said you did. That gives him no reason to do some crap like this to you, look at me." Finn said sternly, she looked up as she was still crying. "Your face shouldn't be bruised up like this, Ross is not good for you. Allen said it, Phil, Gallows, Anderson, Nick, Matt and now I'm telling you. I'm your best friend right?"
"Y-Yeah."
"So trust me and be done with this crap, okay?" Finn lifted her up before she could sink down to the floor.
Pharya broke down crying as she hugged him, she laid her head on his shoulder. "W-Why does he keep treating me like this? I never did anything to him, I swear.."
Finn sighed. "I know you didn't Phar." He rubbed her back with a shake of his head.
A year was enough to be putting up with something like this. The two of them were good for the first couple months but when she started hanging around them less and less they knew something wasn't right. Or when she would start bringing a bag of make up with her every time she came for a show and they knew she hated wearing a lot of makeup.
"Can you take me to Phil's? I have a key." Pharya asked him.
"Yeah." Finn pulled away from her. "Go get your things."
"They are in the living room." Pharya led him inside and grabbed her duffel bag off the floor. She only had on a pair of shorts with the jacket as she started to slip on her flip flops. Hearing the sound of a car door shut outside made both of them look up, Pharya eyes darted to the door with fear. "He's back."
Finn leaned against the wall. "No he isn't, get your purse."
"Finn he-"
"Stop being afraid, he is not going to hurt you now go get your purse." He said sternly, he went to the door when there was a knock. He opened it letting a couple of familiar faces inside.
Pharya eyes widened when she saw Gallows, Anderson, and Allen walking in. "What are you guys doing here?
"I wasn't alone." Finn said. "They were already with me, I just told them to come in if I took to long."
"You didn't have to do that." Pharya shook her head.
"Yeah he did, now where is that son of a bitch?" Karl asked looking around. "He here?" He walked in the kitchen and came back with an angry look. "Is he?"
"N-No he left but he's coming back." Pharya's lip trembled. "I'm sorry guys." She sniffled whipping at her face but winced from the pain.
Allen sighed walking over as he had one of his P1 hats, he hugged her. "It's alright but next time just listen to us. We know what we are talking about, this everything you taking for now?" He asked pulling away.
"No my suitcase is upstairs." She motioned to the steps.
"I'll get it." Allen walked over and went up the steps. "Anything else you want from up here Phar?"
"My silver half heart choker on my night stand." She called out to him.
Luke ruffled her hair walking past. "You're gonna be alright. We got you."
Karl nodded. "Is that all he did to you?" He pointed to her face.
"I mean my back hurts from his kick but that's it." She shook her head. "He got mad because he saw the message of Phil telling me to leave him."
"Your brother's got good sense." Allen said walking down the steps with her suitcase and necklace. "And when he finds out, Ross is a dead man."
"What do you think he is right now?" Luke questioned.
"Look, lets just get her out of here okay?" Allen motioned a hand for him to calm down. "That's the only thing we need to worry about."
"Allen's right, Pharya get your purse." Finn said.
"K, it's in the kitchen." She walked off but stopped when she heard the sound of another car pull up, she turned around wide eyed when the sound of a car door closing could be heard. "That's him this time...I know it is."
"You got nothing to worry about. Now go get your purse and come back." Luke said. "That bastard ain't touching you."
Pharya walked off to get it, she came back in time as the front door opened up.
Ross walked inside, he was pretty built muscle wise as he had a shape and height similar to Randy Orton's almost. He had a tattoo sleeve on one of his arms as he had short cut brown hair and dark green eyes.
He lifted his shades on top of his head from seeing the guys. "What's The Bullet Club doing in here?" He joked but all of them were giving him cold glares as if ready to knock him out at any second. Ross looked over at Pharya who avoided his gaze and looked down, he walked into the living room and towards her. "You alright Pharya babe?"
"Uh, uh." Luke stepped in his way. "Don't call her that and don't take another step towards her."
Ross stepped back with a scoff. "Okay, somebody mind telling me what's going on here? Pharya why do you have bags?"
"Because I'm leaving." Pharya hooked her duffel bag on her shoulder, she looked to Finn who gave her a nod. "I'm sorry I-just, I can't do this anymore with you. You can't keep hitting me and think things are gonna be okay..you need help."
"Is this about earlier?" Ross questioned. "Come on I said I was sorry, I didn't mean to do that to you. I'm not gonna hurt you anymore I just had a little to much to drink but you know I love you."
"You tell her that before or after you put your foot in her damn back?" Karl asked coming to the other side of him, Ross slowly turned to glare at him. "We knew you were no good when we met you but we shut our mouths because of her." He pointed to Pharya. "But nobody is gonna sit back and wait until she is in a hospital to take her away from you."
"Look it was a mistake." Ross said.
Allen scoffed. "Is he serious?"
"Pharya lets go." Finn leaned off the wall as he heard enough.
"Pharya, no come on." Ross looked at her as she stopped. "I care about you, you know I do. These guys just don't want to see you happy just like that brother of yours don't listen to them. I'm the only one that's really there for you, so just stay with me. I need you more then them."
"No." Allen put a hand on the center of her back ushering her forward. "What you need is help." He said to him while picking up her suitcase. "Don't you ever come around her again." Allen glared before walking off.
Pharya got to the opening of the living room where Finn was standing, she looked back and noticed Karl and Luke was still glaring down Ross. "Finn." Her voice came out quiet but he heard her.
Finn looked from them, he looked back down to Pharya with a slight smile. "Go on put with Allen."
"Come on." Allen led her out, he opened the door and let her go out first. "Lets get you in the car."
"What are they gonna do?" Pharya kept glancing back as she walked down the steps.
Allen opened the trunk of the truck and put her stuff back there. "They just wanna be sure he knows that what you two had is over that's all." He walked over and opened the back door and let her get in, he put her necklace in her hand but noticed her staring to cry again. "Hey." Pharya looked over at him. "You're out of there, no more tears."
"I just don't get why." Pharya shook her head.
He sighed leaning against the door. "Sometimes Phar there are guys out there that beat on women because that's all they seen as a kid. Or was just taught if you got a problem then let your fist solve it but listen to me when I tell you that you did nothing. But you're to beautiful and sweet to let any guy put their hands on you, do you understand me?" She nodded. "Never again and no matter what you do, this will never be okay. You're worth better and don't deserve to have your face marked up like this. From now on what you had with him is done, you hear me?"
"Yes." Pharya nodded, she heard a crash from inside making her snap her head to the house. "Allen."
"And now it is time for us to go." He closed the door, he walked over to the driver side and got inside before closing the door behind him. Allen buckled up before beeping the horn multiple times.
Finn, Luke, and Karl casually walked out of the house talking and over to the truck. Luke took the front with Allen as Finn and Karl got in the backseat with Pharya.
"What was that crash?" Pharya looked at them.
"Nothing." Luke shook his head closing the door. "Just talked to your ex and he gets that this is over."
"Now I need to find a new place to stay." Pharya says with a sigh.
"No you don't." Karl closed his door as he was sitting on the other side of her. "Be empty in three weeks and he knows not to come back there any time soon."
Pharya eyes widened. "Seriously, what did you guys do?" She looked to Finn as Allen had pulled the truck off and down the street.
Finn shook his head. "Nothing he didn't have coming Phar." He says. "You're out of there now right?"
"Yeah." She nodded, she smiled a bit. "Thank you guys, I'm serious."
"Come on your our girl Pharya." Karl says. "In the ring and out the ring we got your back and will do anything for you. Especially beat up a guy like him."
"Be lucky Matt and Nick weren't here." Luke chuckled. "He would have gotten a.."
"Superkick!" All the guys said in unison before laughing.
Pharya looked at them shaking her head as she giggled. She put her phone on silent before laying down on Finn's lap and closing her eyes. "Thank you."
"What are best friends for right?" He rubbed her arm before talking back with Luke and Karl.
Allen glanced back and smiled seeing her safe and for once smiling again. "Finn use that jacket up there for her."
Finn reached back and put Allen's leather jacket over her like a coat.
"Allen your coat smells like nature dude, what the hell?" Pharya stated.
The guys laughed, Karl patted her leg. "Now she's coming back."
End flashback
Pharya shook her head. "He decided to let me keep it even though we both brought it and after what you guys did to him he didn't want it."
"So he learned his lesson." Finn chuckled. "But I'm glad your with Colby even Allen said he was a good which means I feel somewhat better about you two dating. Still watching you guys though, you got one time to act weird."
"I know, I know." Pharya cut him off with a giggle. "You'll go all Devitt Demon on him, huh?"
"A duh. But I'm going to sleep so just text me tomorrow when you get up and tell your little Colby Puppy I said hi to."
Pharya rolled her eyes. "For the last time it was a typo Finn!"
"Right." He says sarcastically, he chuckled. "But goodnight, love yah Ellie El."
"Night and love you too Devitt." She waved before ending the chat.
Pharya closed it up and laid down, she grabbed her phone off the dresser and started texting Colby. She knew Finn was right about the place being nothing but bad memories for her as even Phil told her the same thing. It's not like she didn't want to find a new place but it was so hard considering she stayed on the road all the time more then before. She figured she was okay since she hasn't heard or seen him since early 2014 which meant she was okay as far as that part goes.
After taking a shower, she put on her bra and underwear set before putting on her light blue silk robe that came to her knees. She headed downstairs in the kitchen as she was brushing her hair out, she sat the brush on the table as she walked to the fridge to get something to drink.
A knock on the door made her stop, she paused as her brows furrowed together confused. She looked over at the clock to see it was already 2:40 in the morning, she was about to shrug it off until the knocks started again but continued.
Pharya closed the fridge door and sighed making her way to the door. "Who the hell comes to somebody house this late?" She mumbled, the knocks started getting louder. "I'm coming!" Pharya called out annoyed, getting to the door she turned on the porch light and looked out the peep hole. Her brows furrowed confused until the person turned around, her eyes widened as she backed up in shock. "N-No." Pharya said under her breath as she backed up, the knocking started again.
"Come on Phar." A voice called out. "I know your in there, open the door or I will use the key. I still go it so open up the door." She swallowed the nervous lump in her throat, with a shaky hand she opened the door halfway and looked up. "What's up?" Ross nodded to her with a smile.
"I haven't seen you in two years. Now you show up at my house at damn near three in the morning, what do you want?" Pharya glared at him, she didn't wanna say that she jinxed herself but she did.
Ross made his way inside and went past her. "You look good."
Pharya eyed him as she closed the door. "Answer my question. What do you want and why are you here?"
"I just came back into Chicago last month." He walked in the living room with her following at a safe distance. "I would have came earlier but I didn't know you were back home yet Ms. WWE." Ross smiled. "Girl growing on up but I went down to the bar and Michael said you were in there earlier, thought you don't drink?"
"I don't, I have friends down there which is again none of your business." Pharya said sternly. "Now what do you want?"
"Can't come by and hi?" Ross asked as he sat down. "Remember I still got a key to our place." She shook her head. "Look I just wanted to talk to you."
"At three in the morning?" Her brow raised.
He shrugged. "I was kinda busy today and it's not like I could come back to my house since my ex girlfriend and her little friends threatened me and beat me up."
"Can't say you didn't have that coming." Pharya mumbled as she held her body, she could feel him staring her up and down.
"I guess, but I was busy today because I went over some things and remembered something when we brought this place. I was the one that paid your half and then you paid me back.."
"What are you getting at?" Pharya sighed. "Look would you just go, I shouldn't have never even opened the door for you."
Ross stood up and walked over, he took a letter out his pocket and gave it to her. She hesitated but took it from him and looked it over, as she read it her eyes widened. "I don't have to go anywhere because technically this is still all my house that I just been letting you live in. Personally I'm tired of living in a apartment so I'm coming back to stay in my own house and this time your little boys can't put me out."
Pharya snatched the paper down. "You come over at three in the morning to tell me that Ross? Why didn't you just email me about this or something?"
"Then I wouldn't be able to see you." Ross said. "And I'm not leaving and it's no since of calling your little friends because they can't make me go anywhere."
"What, why are you doing this to me?" Pharya questioned running a hand through her hair. "It's been two years...just let it go."
"Come on, I can't let what we had go." Ross backed her up against the wall, he lifted her head up to look at him. "I never forgot you in those two years and I can let go what happened between me and your friends."
"Let go of me." Pharya said sternly.
"You don't mean that." He brushed a finger across her cheek, he bent down to kiss her but she moved her face which made his lips connect against her neck. "I missed you." Ross mumbled against her skin.
Pharya closed her eyes, usually him touching her would send a chill up her body but it wasn't there anymore the only person that could do it was Colby. She wasn't ready to go back down that road anymore not after Finn and the guys went through all of that to snap some sense into her.
"That makes one of us." Pharya pushed his face away from her neck and used the sleeve of her robe to wipe her neck. "You need to go."
"Still letting other people like your brother think for you huh? I already told you I was sorry for what I did to you years ago, I'm not that guy anymore." Ross played with a strand of her hair as he looked down. "Still got that amazing body." He went to touch her leg but she moved his hand making him glare. "Well look there is no need of telling me to go. I already told you this is my place to and you got the papers to prove that."
"Fine." Pharya slapped the paper in his chest, she went to walk away but was quickly yanked back by her arm.
Ross grabbed both of her arms with a tight grip making her look at him wide eyed. "Where are you going? I never said you had to leave Pharya, you can still stay here."
"No." She shook her head, she winced a bit when she felt his nails dig in her skin. "Your hurting me again, let me go." She tried pulling back but he kept his grip.
"I wouldn't have to if you just learn to listen. Would you stop fighting me back." He let her go and pushed her back. Pharya fell back against the wall but hit her shoulder and the back of her head, she stumbled on to the small table and knocked some stuff over. Ross eyes quickly softened when he saw her favor her shoulder. "Pharya I-"
"Stay away from me." Pharya pointed at him. "You want the damn house you got it." She walked off and ran upstairs, she wiped her face from the tears that fell out. Grabbing her purse and phone, she slipped on her slip on shoes before grabbing her car keys and heading back down stairs.
"Where are you going?" Ross went to grab her.
Pharya snatched her arm away before he could. "I said don't touch me!" She yelled at him making him take a step back out of shock. "If you want the house you can have it and everything in it, I will be back to get my clothes and anything else. But I will kick my own ass before I stay in this house with you..."
"Where the hell are you going to go? And it's raining out there." Ross pointed out.
"Don't worry about it." Pharya left out, slamming the door behind her. She fast walked to her car ignoring the fact that it was raining and she was getting wet.
Getting inside the car, she threw her purse to the other side before slamming the door and went to start up the car. Pharya gripped the wheel crying, she ran a hand through her now damp hair before shaking off everything and started the car up. She drove down the road and figured she would call Phil in the morning and tell him so he could help her look for a place but she wasn't about to call him now.
Pharya drove until she got to a familiar apartment building, she left her purse in the car as she just grabbed her phone before getting out. She headed inside and took the elevator up a couple floors before getting off at a main one, she just hoped that he was still up.
She walked down the hall, wrapping one arm around herself she used the free hand to knock on the door a couple of times. The familiar sound of a dog barking made her give a weak smile before knocking on the door again, she would have called him but her phone died on the way there.
"Who is it?" Colby called out. "Marek I swear if it's you again at my door drunk I'm gonna leave you out there man.."
"No, no it's me." Pharya called out
There was a pause, the sound of the door unlocked echoed before it swung open. Colby looked at her shocked but was more shocked to see what she had on.
"Pharya what the hell are you doing out here 3 in the morning dressed like that? You came in the rain?" He questioned, he saw she looked shaken up. "You okay?"
She looked down as she held herself. "Can I stay with you tonight please?"
"Yeah, come on." Colby pulled her in, he looked around out in the hall before closing the door behind him. He turned around to look at her. "What's wrong?"
"I'm fine." She nodded with a fake smile, she saw his look and shook her head. "No I'm not."
"Okay well before we get into why we need to get you out of those wet clothes before you catch a cold in here." He grabbed her hand leading her in the room but turned off the air on his way in.
Colby gave her a clean shirt to put on, she was small but was still able to fit a pair of his gray swetpants. Her hair was now fully dry as she sat on the couch fluffing it out with her fingers, he made his way in and sat down next to her with a sigh. He leaned over and pulled out a big blanket, he put it over them and sat back.
Pharya felt the blanket, she smiled when Kevin jumped up there and curled up in the center of them, making him pet him. "Thank you Colby."
"Anytime, you still feel cold?"
"Not after you turned the heat up to 60 no." Pharya chuckled.
"Just didn't need you getting a cold." He put his hands up in defense. "But I saw that bruise coming in on the back of your shoulder, where'd you get it?"
"I guess you're going to find out anyway." Pharya curled her legs up and laid back. "Remember that bad relationship that I told you about?"
He nodded. "You didn't tell me all the details but did say it was bad."
"Yeah, it was." She played with the hem of the blanket. "I dated this guy Ross back during the end of 2013 and it lasted all the way to 2014, he was a really good guy when I first met him. He was one of the ring set up guys that worked for this wrestling promotion that I was in and we clicked a bit. I liked him, of course Phil didn't but I just thought that maybe was a guy thing. Ross really was a nice guy at first but then he started to get a bit controlling, getting angry when I went out without him. He use to tell me when to come home and for a period of time I actually started to listen to him because if I didn't then..." A pain hit her chest as she looked down with a pained look. "He would hit me...and I would just let him get away with it every single time and just try to cover it up because he told me he was sorry. When the guys started noticing me getting weirder each day and carrying around more makeup they knew something wasn't right. It was Nick who spotted my first bruise and they made me tell them what was going on and when I told Phil, he was pissed. All of them told me not go back except Finn who just never said anything since they all saw how defensive I would get over it. I guess he knew if I wanted out then I would have to make the first step...he kind of believes in tough love."
"I get that." Colby nodded, he looked back at her to finish.
"Anyway I went back to Ross again even after people told me not to and he got mad when he saw a text from Phil about me leaving him. So he hit me...but this time he didn't stop and I winded up getting a black eye, and bruises everywhere not to mention my back. I was so scared that I called Finn who came over but brought Luke, Allen and Karl with him and they took me out of there. They so called 'talk' to him and made him move out the house that I now still live in and I haven't seen him for two years." She saw Colby make a confused face. "Until tonight...he came to the house that he still has a key to which I should have known. But he showed me these papers about how he never had to leave because it was his house but he told me I could stay. I didn't want to stay, I don't want to be anywhere around him and if he wants the house he can have it." Pharya's voice cracked as she looked down ready to cry. "He pushed me back into wall which explains that bruise but that's all I let him do to me. I don't wanna turn back into that girl and go through all of that again...I can't."
"Hey, you don't have to." Colby sat up. "Even if you have to stay here with me, I mean I haven't had a roommate who I dated since the indies but hey." He shrugged. "For him to even put his hands on you again isn't right and he isn't gonna do it again I promise you that." She looked over at him, he moved her hair out her face to tuck it behind her ear. "Look at you...you don't deserve that and I'm not gonna let you put up with it. So your calling your brother tomorrow so we can get your stuff out of there."
"But Colby your leg, you have to go to therapy and I can't let yo-"
"Relax." Colby pulled her to him as he laid back and wrapped an arm around her. "I know going through that is hard but believe me when I tell you that I would never do that to you. I told you I would look out for you didn't I?"
Pharya nodded wrapping an arm around his waist, she laid her head on his chest. "Yeah..."
"So let me do that." He rubbed her back and heard her letting out soft cries, he kissed the top of her head. "You're safe sweetheart, I got you."
That was the first chapter, don't forget to leave me a review and tell me what you think and to check out the other chapters!
