I hope everyone has enjoyed the story so far. Thanks to those that review, fav, and follow. No one really said whether or not my chapters were too long or too short so I'll just go with it. I came up with the idea to this story because I happen to like Seth Rollins. Just because he plays a bad guy on screen doesn't mean he is a bad guy in real life. But of course the story isn't just about Seth. I liked the idea of Seth saving Olivia in the last chapter. Where the WWE Universe may see Seth as a bad guy, Olivia sees him in a completely different way. Plus... Olivia and Seth, they just sound so good together.
Not So Bad
Chapter Two
Olivia was lost in her thoughts, she had just lost everything. She was running away from an abusive relationship. She had all of her stuff packed up in her suitcase. She planned on moving across the country to start a new life. She was worried that her boyfriend would have found her, she didn't want to live in an abusive relationship anymore. Not only did she go through verbal abuse, but also physical abuse. Her boyfriend was a drinker and he had anger issues so when things didn't go his way he would get violent. He told her over and over that he would change, but he never did and she wasn't going to put up with it anymore. She finally got the courage to leave him when he went to work. She had to make sure that she would go somewhere where he wouldn't think to look for her. Other times when she tried to break up with him, he would cuss at her and beat her so she put up with it until she had enough.
If he loved her so much like he said, why would he beat her? There was still worry in the back of her mind. If he found her, he would beat her for sure, maybe even kill her, whether he meant to or not. So Olivia happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. The guy that robbed the store tried to steal her car so when she tried to fight back he pulled a knife out on her. She managed to fight him off long enough to make him drop the knife, but he pinned her up against a wall, hit her in the face, and started choking her. At the time she thought she was about to die, but the next thing she knew the guy ran off because someone else was chasing after him.
All of her stuff was in her car and the guy got away in her car. She didn't really think about it, but she still somehow managed to look on the bright side. At least she had escaped with her life. She had Seth Rollins to thank for that. He showed up and saved her. Sure he just showed up and ran the guy off, but she was thankful to him. When he introduced himself and they shook hands she looked at him in his eyes and felt this weird connection. She should have known better, she shouldn't fall for the first guy she saw. That was the problem she was running from to begin with. The first moment she saw him she was a bit scared of him, but he sat there and waited with her until the police and medics showed up.
She didn't hear everything he said before he left, but she could have thought that he said he would be right behind her, but she wasn't sure. Maybe that was what her mind wanted her to think. Now that she lay in a hospital bed she thought to herself again. She probably wouldn't ever see him again. She was told by the doctor that they would keep her there over night just to be safe. She had stitches in her shoulder and she still felt the pain in her neck and face from where the guy attacked her. She was stressed, she didn't know what she would do once she got out of the hospital. She had so much on her mind and she broke down in tears. She didn't think anyone would come to see her and she especially didn't think she would see Seth again. She was in for the surprise of her life when she saw him walk through her doorway. He even brought her flowers. She was kind of confused, but happy to see him. She tried to wipe the tears out of her eyes, but he had already seen her crying.
"Seth Rollins? What are you doing here?"
"Didn't you hear what I said before you left Olivia? I said I was going to be right behind you. I wanted to make sure you were ok. Here take these."
He smiles at her and hands her the flowers he bought for her. She smiles back at him and gladly accepts them.
"Thank you Seth. It was really nice of you. You really didn't have to do this. I thought you might have said you would follow me, but I was thinking I heard you wrong. I really didn't expect to see you again so this was a nice surprise."
"I thought it was the least I could do. I thought I would try to surprise you to help take your mind off what happened."
She almost gets tears in her eyes again.
"I really can't thank you enough. You saved my life Seth. I'm sorry, you probably have somewhere else you need to be. I'm sorry I've been so much trouble."
"You don't have to apologize for anything. It's not your fault. Yes, I did have somewhere to go, but don't worry about it. I'll take care of that later. Somethings are just more important."
He looked right at her when he said this. She smiled and her heart pounded in her chest.
"If anyone should be apologizing, it should be me. I'm just sorry I couldn't have got there sooner. I'm just sorry that guy got away with your car. Didn't you say you had all of your stuff in your car?"
"Yeah except my phone. I had that in my pocket. That's all I have."
"So yeah, Olivia if there is anyone that should apologize it should be me. I'm sorry you lost all of your stuff."
He was beating himself up over this. Olivia didn't want to hear him apologize to her.
"Please... don't apologize anymore. Don't beat yourself up over this. The main thing is you were there when it mattered. I'm still alive and I'm so thankful to you for that."
Even though she was laying in a hospital bed with marks on her face and her neck he still thought she was beautiful and he wanted to know more about her. He wanted to help her in any way that he could.
"So Olivia... If you don't mind me asking... Why was all of your stuff in your car anyway?"
Olivia frowned at this. She didn't really want to tell him about her personal life. She didn't want to make him feel even more sorry for her.
"It's kind of a personal matter, but I was running away. I wanted to try to start a new life, but it's kind of a personal matter right now. I don't really want to talk about it right now."
"Oh... I probably shouldn't have asked you about your personal life. Call me crazy if you want, but I kind of wanted to know more about you. I didn't want our first encounter to be our last encounter."
"I know what you mean. I didn't really expect to ever see you again, but I'm glad you're here."
"So if the police don't find the guy that took your car I'll help you. Well... you know what I'll help you anyway."
Olivia couldn't believe what she was hearing. No one has ever really cared about her this much.
"Seth please... Stop feeling sorry for me. I can't let you do that for me. You've done so much for me already."
"This isn't something I have to do. This is something I want to do. Also if I ever see that guy again I'll teach him a lesson he won't forget. You don't ever ever hit a woman."
Olivia didn't know what else to say or what else to do. She really didn't want Seth to do anything else for her. She was sure that he was just feeling sorry for her. She felt guilty.
"I see that look in your eyes Olivia, stop feeling bad about this. I bet you've been wondering what you're going to do after you get out of the hospital. I know this may seem weird since we've only just met and all, but please... come with me Olivia. As weird as it may sound... since I saved you, I don't want anything to happen to you. I know you may feel weird or scared about this, but I promise nothing will happen to you as long as I'm around and I promise I won't do anything to hurt you."
Olivia felt like in a way she could trust him. After all he did save her life earlier that same night. She didn't know what else she was going to do. She didn't really have any friends or family that could help her. She was on her own. Part of her mind told her not to trust him right away because from her last relationship she learned that first impressions weren't enough. She wasn't sure if she should believe him when he said he wouldn't hurt her. He was kind of a muscular guy and with her being so small, it wouldn't take much for him to hurt her. Seth could see that she was thinking about this and he wasn't sure if she would give him a chance.
"I know... it's a lot to think about. Going with someone you just met isn't always the best decision. Sometimes first impressions aren't good enough to gain people's trust. I'd like to help you, but I can't make you come with me. That's up to you. Maybe just give me one chance?"
The look in his eyes and the smile on his face was the sweetest smile she's ever seen. She was sure that guys like this only existed in books or movies, guys that were always so sweet and treated a girl like a princess. Finally she smiled and agreed.
"Ok, one chance... I'll go with you, I'll give you one chance."
"Deal... If I mess up you can go do your own thing."
They shake hands and made a deal. That feeling returned. It was that same feeling they had when they first shook hands when they met. Now Olivia was the curious one wanting to know more about Seth.
"So Seth, why don't you tell me something about yourself."
"I promise I will at some point, but it's getting late. You should get some rest, it will help you feel better."
She agreed. Seth found a chair and got as comfortable as he could. Olivia fell asleep, but Seth had her on his mind. He thought it would be best to tell her about himself once they're out of the hospital. There was more to her than meets the eye. There was something that she wasn't telling him like some dark, mysterious secret. He knew it wasn't any of his business, but he wanted to know more about her. He didn't know how long he would be with her, but he was determined to spend as much time with her as he could and find out what was wrong. The moment he walked in the door he saw her crying. He was glad when the tears went away and he made her smile, he would do anything to see that smile. She did tell him that she was running away. What he wanted to know was what was she running away from? She was a very reserved person, how was he supposed to help her if she wouldn't open up to him? She had agreed to come with him so he thought maybe he could get little bits and pieces of information out of her once they get to know each other better.
(To be continued. Thanks again to those that fav, follow and review. I've enjoyed writing this so far, I hope everyone has enjoyed reading it as much as I've enjoyed writing it. Also I love reading people's comments. If there is anything I can do to make the story better like maybe spelling or grammar let me know. What do you think about Seth and Olivia so far?)
