Brock sat next to punk. Both tense. Aj sat with her legs over Roman, more to keep him in place. Sasha sat on Jae's lap. His arms wrapped protectively around her. Rush sat on a couch her head down, chewing on her nail. Ambrose behind her, hands on her shoulders.
Seth stood facing them all with Dave next to him. Holding his hand squeezing every now and then.
"You wanted to talk, talk." It was more of a growl then anything.
Seth swallowed.
"I'm sorry." It was quiet but heard. "I know I fucked up."
"No shit!" Dean yelled. " do you fucking realize the hell we went through? Do you know what she " he pointed at Rush" went through? What that sick fuck wanted to do to me? AGAIN! Did you think about that? Did you think about what they would do to Sasha?"
Rush placed a hand over his hand. Jae squeezed Sasha just a little tighter.
" I did. " he sighed. " I had to hear every sick fucking thing. And then he told me if I didn't... Every sick fucking thing he would do to me and Dave if I didn't help him. And he wouldn't stop there. He wouldn't stop with us, or even Roman until he got you. Hunter... Wanted Roman. He wanted him in the same way that Orton wanted you. "
Ambrose went to respond when rush stood up.
She walked in front of Seth. Finally raising her head. Her hazel eyes lines with tears. She stared him in the eyes.
"There's more you're not telling us isn't there?" Her voice quiet.
Seth started to shake his head.
"It's okay, you know. I've been there before." It was a quiet response.
"I.. He.. Kane.." He shook his head as the memories came back.
"Kane? That big bald fuck?" Ambrose questioned. "Whats he got to do with this? Didn't he get out or whatever."
"No. He was just behind the scenes. Doing dirty work." Seth answered looking down.
"Kane.. Wanted Seth. If Seth didn't do what Orton wanted..." Dave started. Seths body shook more. Dave wrapping his arms around him.
"He watched... Gave him..instructions to teach me to be a good pet. Said.. This is what me and Dave would learn if I didn't help him. Said hunter wanted Roman broken so sweet. Said she was just the pawn he needed. Said she would learn to. " Seth let the tears fall.
All faces mirrored each other. Shock. Disgust.
" he hurt you." It was a quiet statement from Rush to which Seth nodded.
"It was just one night. One time. But I got the message. When Jae came to the house I knew then. But it was too late. When we got to the house... Randy.. Was mad. And he made promises."
"That's why you did all this? To save your love and friends.. For the most part."
"I had a plan. But we didn't need it. "
Ambrose chuckled "there's always a plan b with this guy."
"I.. I know sorry doesn't help. But I didn't want Dave and Roman going through what I did. Or what Dean did. And I had the Wyatt's on stand by to help. But then rush shot Randy and Roman had taken care of hunter. And he found kanes body."
" Jae did that one." Rush smiled proudly.
"Thank you."
Jae nodded.
It was quiet. Everyone looked at everyone if having a silent conversation.
"If you guys want to kick my ass I'll understand. I won't fight back."
Rush cocked her head. Before anyone could blink she had punched him in the jaw, sending him into Dave.
"Dumbass." Then she smiled. "Seth, look around you. These are your brothers. You should have told them what happened. I understand why you didn't. I can appreciate you having a back up plan. And stepping up to tell us now. I however have an issue with you walking away from us. And that's what the punch was for. Now...it's nice out today. Let's have a BBQ. "
Seth stared at her. " what.."
"Jesus men. Seth.. I get it. It's in the past. Let's just move forward."
Seth looked to Dean first.
" ey man. My woman spoke. " Dean smiled a little. " I'm not saying it's been forgiven 100% but it's a start."
"Honestly I think the walking away was the worst part. " Roman stated. "Ok and picturing what the fuck they wanted to do to us. But god damn it mental images"
Everyone cringed a little at that with chuckles.
" can we call up jimmy and jay? They make amazing food!" Rush smiled.
