Chapter 14

Getting into the mindset of how things had been at first, Bianca immediately began struggling against Jon as soon as they began descending the stairs, grunting as he tightened his arm around her waist. The crowd gasped in shock and Bianca smiled on the inside, knowing the makeup was definitely believable. She had a deep black, blue and purple black eye, a 'split' lip and a few cuts on her cheeks along with more bruises. It looked like she'd been backhanded several times across the face.

"Breathe Moxley, it's okay." She whispered, barely moving her lips because she had to keep looking like she was in serious pain and felt him squeeze her gently, letting her know he heard her.

Once inside the ring, Jon released Bianca long enough to grab a microphone, doing yet another promo. Before he even opened his mouth to speak, the pyros exploded out of the ring posts as Team Hell No came out to stand on top of the stage. Colby laughed maniacally, completely in character right now and buried his hand in Kavari's hair, pressing his nose to her cheek.

"My god…Bianca…"

Bryan felt sick to his stomach when the camera zoomed in on her bruised face and felt his blood boiling, breathing heavily. Suddenly, the plan with Vince McMahon flew out of his mind as Bryan took off down the ramp way before Glen could, sliding in the ring and proceeded to be stomped into the mat by all 3 members of the Shield. Glen followed, but didn't get into the ring as he walked around the side, staring up at the ropes at his daughter.

"Kavari…"

As soon as Kavari's eyes locked onto her father's, the dam broke as more tears cascaded down her face. She stepped through the ropes and threw herself into his arms, not caring about anything anymore. "I want to go home, Dad." She sobbed, clinging to him for dear life. "I don't want to be here anymore."

Burying her face in his chest, Glen instantly wrapped his arms around her and wanted to rip the Shield apart for hurting his baby girl. Not even 3 seconds later, Kavari was yanked from her father's loving embrace and cringed when Joe delivered a reverse DDT in the ring. She turned around just as Colby pulled her away, struggling against him out of pure instinct. He was the last person she wanted to see, wanting her father more than anything, but his grip was impossible to break.

Jon didn't think Bryan would have the fortitude to break character and attack like he did. Apparently Tiffany deserved a raise because she wasn't being paid nearly enough for the masterful work she did with makeup. The Shield immediately tied Bryan up in the ropes to keep him pacified and Jon jerked Bianca roughly into his arms, licking her cheek.

"What do you want us to do?" His mouth was by her ear, whispering over the booing crowd. "We can beat the shit out of him or leave him."

Sniffling, Bianca felt tears sting her eyes because of everything her brother put her and Kavari through, her bottom lip trembling. Jon was giving her the choice on what to do with Bryan and she honestly wanted to drag this out further. She wanted him to suffer and make him beg for her release, which would happen with some of the other ideas she had in mind with Tiffany.

"Leave him for now." She whispered, making it seem like she was begging Jon to release her brother and cringed when his face buried in her neck, his mouth by her ear. "B-Bryan…" She stammered, looking over at her brother and watched as he started fighting his way out of the corner, but the Shield kept him down.

"Ambrose, I swear to god if you hurt another hair on her head…!"

"You'll stand there and watch like the bitch you are." Joe growled, kicking Bryan in the midsection again and felt his blood boil. "We leave him for now. Come the pay-per-view, his ass belongs to us."

"You can't go with him yet, beautiful." Colby whispered in Kavari's ear and had to increase his strength with her because she refused to stop fighting. "Kavari!" He growled when she started elbowing him and suddenly tossed her over his shoulder, smacking her ass right in front of her father. "Until next time, POPS." He laughed, looking at the others as Jon once again wrapped an arm around Bianca, all of them heading out the ring over the barricade.

"BRYAN!" Bianca shrieked, fighting against Jon to get to her brother and made it completely believable that she was miserable. "You promised me! You promised Mom and Dad you'd always protect me!"

Bryan felt completely helpless as he watched the Shield take off with his sister yet again, coughing up some blood.

"KAVARI!" Glen growled, crawling toward the barricade since his head was completely swimming from that DDT, needing to get to her. Now she was miserable, so clearly something had happened.

As soon as they all got back to the Shield locker room, Kavari spun around and slapped the taste out of Colby's mouth, the sound bouncing off the walls. "The next time you feel the need to swat me on the ass like a child, for your own safety, DON'T FOLLOW THROUGH!" Scowling, Kavari stormed into the bathroom and slammed the door shut, changing into her street clothes.

Jon physically cringed along with everyone else and stepped forward, gripping Colby's shoulder. "You okay, bro?"

Joe growled. "Did she really just fuckin hit you? She needs to have her ass beat now! If she can't understand why we had to do all this then we should just let the little bitch go home." He scoffed. "Obviously whatever the fuck you thought you two had didn't exactly stick with her. I told you to watch yourself." Joe threw his head back to get his hair out of his face. "Fuck it I'll beat her ass myself!" He growled as he took off to the bathroom.

"NO!" Colby was quick as lightning and shoved Joe away from the bathroom door, brown eyes glittering with anger. "Leave her ALONE, bro. I deserved that. I never should've struck her on the ass, she's right. I did it for show, but I've never done that up to this point. There was no reason for it. So no, you are not going in there and beating her ass because, if you do, I promise I will drop you here and now where you stand." He squared his shoulders, rubbing his hands together and dared Joe to take one step in front of him.

"Enough with the dick measuring contest, both of you." Bianca ordered, shoving between them since Joe had tried shoving his chest against Colby's threateningly. "Let me talk to her. You two get your shit straight. This will NOT fall apart, do you understand me? We have the power and we have them by the balls. So until this is done, you WILL get along and you WILL be the Shield." Storming into the bathroom, Bianca slammed the door shut behind her so hard the walls rattled and flipped the lock on it, hearing sobbing coming from one of the stalls.

Jon groaned, scrubbing a hand down his face. "She's right you two, knock the shit off. Joe, I realize you want to protect Colby, but they have to work their own shit out. You can't think giving her an ass whopping would help the situation. You've already seen what she did after one smack on the ass and you know firsthand what it feels like to be taken down by her when she's pissed off. Just let Bianca talk to her. Hopefully she'll get shit smoothed over." He started changing into his street clothes, hoping Bianca could work her magic with Kavari.

Joe held out his fist. "Sorry bro." Colby bumped his fist against his and Joe started changing, wanting to get back to the hotel, eat and pass out after a warm shower.

"Kavari sweetie, can we talk?" Bianca asked softly, slowly lowering herself to sit beside her friend and didn't bother wiping her 'abusive' makeup off at the moment. "Look, I don't know what happened between you and Colby while we were in Florida, but you have to listen to me. I know you're pissed off because you thought their wrestling personas were their real names. That's why I didn't call Jon Dean because I knew what his real name was. Moxley was his Indy wrestling name when he and my…brother feuded in the Indies." She kept her voice low and soft the whole time she spoke. "My brother is responsible for this along with Vince McMahon. So I decided to call Linda McMahon and explained to her everything that happened and what her husband is doing. She's going to help us, but if you start freaking out now, when you should've days ago, this will never work. If you want my brother and Vince McMahon to pay for what they've done to us, then trust me. We're in this together, remember? Colby smacking your ass was wrong, but I know he just got lost in the moment. He legitimately cares about you, even if he's kept his real name secret from you. I need your help with this, Kavari. I want my brother and McMahon to pay, but I can't do it without you. So please help me. And then you can go home and pretend Colby never existed if that's what you want – just like I'm going to pretend Jonathan Good never existed."

"I was so stupid." Kavari sobbed, slowly lifting her bloodshot swollen sapphire eyes to meet solemn sky blue. "I started falling for him. I feel so embarrassed. We made love over the two days from everyone several times and I wasn't calling out Colby's name. I was calling out Seth's. I realize it might be the same person, but it's just…I just…" She had to stop and took a deep shuddering breath, trying to calm down. "You start falling for someone and you hook up with them, thinking they're one person and it turns out they're not. They're totally different and it's confusing."

"Come here sweetie." Bianca pulled Kavari into her arms and held her close, running her fingers through her hair soothingly. "Love sucks, period. It completely sucks and there's no way to stop it from happening when it does. When you see that person, no matter what their name is, and you know without a shadow of a doubt they are the person you want to be with. And it doesn't matter what they do to you or if you try your hardest to despise them. When love strikes, there's nothing you can do about it and there's no escaping it either. I know because I lost the love of my life way too soon. So if you find that one person that makes you whole, don't let him go. Fight for him. If it's Colby, don't run away because he might be the one you end up spending the rest of your life with. But he might end up gone one day and if you don't take that chance, you'll never forgive yourself…" Bianca began crying, letting the tears fall freely down her cheeks. "You'll never get to tell him everything you wanted to. And you'll never be able to move on with your life, no matter how hard you try or how many years pass. When you find love, you hold onto it and cherish it for as long as you can because it can all end in the blink of an eye. Just think about it and ask yourself is Colby really so different from Seth or are they one in the same. If you can answer that question, then you've got your answer and you'll know what you have to do."

At that moment, a knock sounded at the bathroom door with Jon's voice flowing through it. "Come on girls, it's time to head back to the hotel."

Helping Kavari to her feet, Bianca lead her out of the bathroom while the guys shouldered their bags, all heads snapping to stare at them. Jon cracked a hesitant smile because it was obvious both women had been crying. No matter what had happened the last 30 minutes between Colby and Kavari, the man still wanted to comfort her, the turmoil in his chocolate clear as day to Jon.

"Joe is gonna run and get some dinner for us again once we get back to the hotel." He informed them in a low voice and stepped in front of Bianca, winking down at her.

They had to keep the charade up as he gently lifted her over his shoulder, just in case prying eyes were watching. Kavari knew she had to talk to Colby and sighed heavily, wondering if she'd ever get used to calling him that instead of Seth. Standing next time, she allowed Colby to grab her arm this time. Everything still had to look believable or else she'd never get home. However, the tears did not stop for a second and maybe it was a good thing because it added to the convincing factor. Bianca kept the makeup on her face, though some of it was smeared. It wasn't noticed though unless one looked REALLY close. Once they were all piled into the SUV, Bianca sat beside Kavari and forced Colby to sit beside Jon, wrapping an arm around her friend. Kavari was completely heartbroken and she didn't blame the woman, especially after having two days of lovemaking from a man she didn't even know.

"It's gonna be alright, sweetie. I promise." She murmured softly, kissing the top of her head and hoped she wasn't lying to Kavari about that. "By the way, boys, Linda calls tonight. Jon, I'm going to need your cell phone to be completely open since that's the number she's calling. When she does, she wants us to listen to everything she has to say."

"Got it." Joe grunted, not believing he was actually taking orders from a woman they were supposed to have hostage.

This was one messed up situation.

Colby was miserable as he stared out the window in thought, having planted his headphones over his ears to blast music. It helped calm him down, but right now all he felt was heartache. Kavari was unlike any woman he'd ever met before and he completely demolished any future they might have had together. Granted, he didn't exactly come forth with the truth of his name, but at the same time he didn't say 'oh I'm Seth' either. Seth Rollins was his WWE persona, who he portrayed, and it was Colby Lopez with the volume turned up. Of course, he hated his name and that's why he'd let them change his name completely when he came to the WWE. Colby had to make things right with Kavari, he just didn't know how.
