The next morning, Chrissy woke up on top of Dean and he was holding her snugly in his arms, almost like she was a teddy bear. He was still upset about the night before and he needed to feel her in his arms to reassure himself that she was here and was fine. She was content to lay in his arms until there was a knock at the door, so she tried to wiggle out of his embrace, but his grip on her only tightened. "Jon, baby, I need to get up. Please?" the brunette pleaded. "No." was his reply. "Someone is at the door and one of us needs to answer it." Chrissy told him. "They'll go away." the blonde responded. "Chrissy, are you guys in there?" they heard Dolph say through the door. "See, I need to answer it. Nick will break it down and you know it." she said. With a grumble, Dean reluctantly released Chrissy from his embrace.
Chrissy got up from the bed and pulled on a robe provided by the hotel before finally opening the door. Outside stood Dolph, Roman, Seth, and the Uso's. Before she could say anything, the brunette was engulfed into a hug by Dolph. The others went ahead and walked in while the two friends embraced. "I was so fucking scared when I read that text this morning. What the hell happened?" the blonde mumbled. "Jason broke into our room, destroyed our clothes, wrote on the walls, and stole my panties." the brunette replied. He hugged her tighter after hearing her answer and asked "Your panties? What the fuck?" "I don't even want to know. I'm just glad y'all are here." Chrissy responded. "Me too. Let's go inside." Dolph said as he linked her arm with his and walked back inside the room.

Meanwhile, the others were talking to Dean and had just gotten the full story from the blonde. "What the fuck is his malfunction? You and her are married now. It's obvious that she doesn't want him, so why does he keep coming for her?" Seth asked. "That doesn't matter to someone like him. Jason thinks that Chrissy is his and that's all that matters to him. I want to fucking kill him so bad it isn't funny.." Dean responded. "I don't blame you bro, but all you can do right now is what you're doing; and that's be there for your wife. Let her lean on you, but don't forget that she will let you lean on her as well. It's a two-way street." Roman told the younger man. Dean nodded and said "Thanks bro." "Did you talk to her about what we decided?" the two-toned man asked. "Not yet, but I can do it while you guys are here. She might take it better if she sees how serious we all are." the blonde replied. "Serious about what?" they heard her ask from the doorway.

"Come here darling and sit down." Dean suggested. Chrissy pried herself away from Dolph, after he gave her a reassuring smile, and she sat beside her husband on the bed. That wasn't good enough for him. The blonde plucked her up and held her firmly on his lap. "Serious about what Jon?" the brunette asked again. "The guys and I decided that until that asshole can be arrested, you shouldn't go anywhere alone. One of us should be with you at all times, except for the bathroom of course. I know you're probably gonna hate this, but it's for your own safety. Please consider this darling. Please." Dean pleaded.
Chrissy looked around the room and saw that all the men had a serious, yet pleading expression on their faces. The brunette then looked back at her husband and saw his blue eyes silently beg her to go along with this. 'I really hate this, but if it puts their minds at ease, I can live with it. I care about these men too much to let them worry about me. Besides, I would feel safer with them hovering..' she thought before answering with a simple "Okay baby." "Seriously?" the blonde asked. "Seriously. As much as I don't want to lose my privacy, not worrying you guys is more important than that." she replied. Dean kissed her softly in response, not caring that everyone was watching them. It was Dolph that eventually cleared his throat and said "Okay, that's enough of that. She is my sister, ya know."
With that, Chrissy blushed and pulled away from Dean, which made everyone laugh. He kissed the top of her head before asking Dolph "Did you talk to him?" "Oh, yeah. He said no problem." the older man replied. The brunette looked at the two in confusion, until Dolph explained "He's talking about Mike." "Oh. That's fine, but if he says 'I'm Awesome' even once, I'm punching him. That is so annoying.." she responded, making everyone laugh again. "I'll tell him." the Show-Off managed to say through his laughter.
After a few more minutes of small talk, the others decided to leave the couple alone. They really needed the rest before SmackDown that evening. Dolph was the last to leave and Chrissy managed to get up from Dean's lap so that they could hug one more time. "I love you Nicky." she whispered. "I love you too sissy." he responded before finally leaving.

Dean stood up and scooped Chrissy back into his arms before carrying her back to bed. She didn't object since she knew that he needed to be a bit clingy today. Quite frankly, the brunette wanted to cling to him, to let him comfort her, but he beat her to the punch. "Chrissy, I know we just talked about this, but I want you to promise me something." the blonde said after they lay there for a while. "What?" she asked. "Don't go anywhere without one of the guys and don't try to lose them either, no matter how annoying or irritating it gets." he replied. "I promise." Chrissy said even though she wasn't planning on doing either one, but she knew he needed to hear her say it. Dean nodded happily and said "I love you Chrissy." "I love you too Jon." she responded before kissing him. They lay there the rest of the morning and into the afternoon, not moving from their bubble until they needed to leave for the arena.
