Hello, lovely readers!

Happy Valentines Day, guys. Hope you'll have a lovely day with your partners and loved ones. I'm spending a lovely day with my boyfriend and cannot wait. So enjoy your day, you wonderful lot.

So overwhelmed by the response to the last chapter, so thanks to everyone for their feedback. It meant we finally hit 400 reviews! I appreciate each and everyone of them.

Squeegee Beckinhime – I agree. He's done a lot to her and now she's finally admitting her true feelings.

Minimary16 – I agree, Hunter is totally over-reacting. He's taking the protective big brother stance too far.

CiCix3 – It sort of is! She's going against her will

MissyInTheMiddle – They do! She's a grown bloody woman!

KairiAnneYukari21 – Hunter is angry and he takes the anger too far. Plus if we know Randy like we know we do, he's totally exaggerated the story to Hunter

Morrowsong – She does need to smarten up. But she knows everyone is against her and the power Hunter wields not only over her but over Dean too. She has to protect Dean first and foremost.

Debwood-1999 – This chapter is a device to move the story forward and create conflict, yes. It is fan-fiction and it is just a bit of fun, but that's fine if that's your opinion :)

Ashes2Dust18 – She is a grown woman, but she's doing what she has to in order to protect Dean

Irishblue69 – I think Randy has well and truly any chance he had of any relationship with Holly now, be it romantic or friendship

Rileyjade – The course of true love never did run smooth

Raquel the writer – Randy is a very jealous man right now

AngelsDestiny22 – Well thank you for the review! So would I! I'd have killed Randy after all this

Chermayne – Thank you!

DeeMarie426 – Agreed. Hunter, above anyone, should understand Holly's situation. But he's a protective older brother and he's angry that he hasn't been told. And we all know how Triple H gets when he's angry

LeaMarie F Metallium – Lets RKO all of them!

Gostcat – I know! It was a very bittersweet chapter. And thank you, I like to keep my readers on their toes.

Calwitch – Anger has completely taken over the situation so everyone is acting on impulse really, which is sure to backfire. Holly is just trying to keep the peace and protect Dean from whatever Hunter could throw at him. And I'm sorry about your updates, it's very unusual.

Seth Rollins babe – Exactly! He should care about his sister's feelings rather than destroying them

Ashley – We will find out what Dean does in this chapter

Tantoune – We know Randy will have twisted the truth when he told Hunter, firstly to protect himself and secondly to run Dean's name through the mud. Randy has definitely sunk low in this situation

Dutchangel1979 – Yeah, Dean won't be happy. We'll see in this chapter

Ambrose-kohli-girl – I agree with this whole review. We'll see what happens with Dean and Holly this chapter

Guest – Yeah, Randy has shown his true colours for sure

Guest – Yes, she's a grown woman, but she's doing what is best for he and Dean in order to protect him and give him an easier life

2112brittbritt – Anger was the main emotion in that chapter and it's making everyone act crazy. Hunter needs to realise how good Dean is for her

This chapter is named after 'Not Gonna Get Us' by Tatu

Holly Helmsley's Point Of View

It had been two fucking days.

Two measly fucking days since I'd arrived at Hunter's home in Connecticut, or as I had taken to calling it, 'my pathetic stupid prison for a grown woman who is old enough to make her own decisions.'

He'd taken out all the phone lines, he had removed my cell phone from my possession and there was no internet to be found. I had no way of contacting the outside world, no way of communicating with anyone outside the house (mainly because the doors were locked) and the only person I'd seen since I'd come here was my own reflection in the mirror.

I still had access to the television so at least I had some form of entertainment, but I'd literally been locked in this house and I had no idea how long it'd be until I could get out.

This was fucking insane! It was like something from fan-fiction, it really was. People in prison lived in better conditions than this. I was being treated like shit by someone who knew nothing of my situation, and what bothered me the most was I hadn't actually done anything wrong. I had a boyfriend, big deal!

Dean was a good man, a kind man, and a man who loved me beyond compare. And I loved him. How was that so wrong?

For Hunter to go to such extremes to keep us apart was crazy and I couldn't believe he was actually going through with this plan. I was his little sister, his flesh and blood. But he was treating me like I'd committed a murder, like I was a danger to the public and needed to be locked up like a wild animal. Hunter didn't like Dean as my boyfriend, and that was fair enough. But it was my relationship, it was my choice to make, and whether he liked it or not he should have supported it.

He, above anyone else, should know what it's like to be in that position.

It only seemed like five minutes since he'd gotten with Stephanie in similar circumstances.

He knew all the shit that came with that and all the problems he faced to be with her. But he faced those problems because he loved her and wanted to be with her. Having gone through it himself, he should have been the one person to support me the most in my decision to be with Dean.

I knew he wouldn't be happy, I'd known it from the very start, hence why I had been so afraid to tell him in the first place. But all I'd expected was a few sharp words, an argument and then for him to come round to the idea and accept that we were together. What I hadn't expected was for him to send me half way across the country, lock me up, and attempt to split Dean and I apart.

He was going totally overboard, he was out of his mind, and this whole situation was driving me mad.

I hadn't seen or spoken to Dean in two whole fucking days.

I hated not seeing him, I hated not being with him, and I dreaded to think what he'd be going through not knowing where I was. He'd heard no word from me, seen nothing of me, and I could only imagine the shit Randy and Hunter would be feeding him about my whereabouts.

They'd no doubt be lying to him, telling him stories about how I'd left or how I'd have enough of him, saying anything they could to drive a wedge between us. And if that wasn't the case, I hated to think about how they were treating him. I knew what Hunter could be like. Authority member or not, he was sure to be giving Dean the shit matches or the hard matches, working him to the bone.

I sighed, flicking through the boring mindless TV channels, attempting to find something to watching that wasn't droning or a re-run.

I missed Dean so much. I missed the sound of his voice, his touch, the way he'd kiss my head or hold my hand. I missed him being beside me at night or the way he'd tease me. I missed the feel of his soft hair or the comfort lying in his arms gave me.

It just wasn't the same without him and as I sat there I wondered when I'd ever see him again…

xXx

Another day of monotonous bullshit came and went, another day in this hell hole. It passed me by in the usual way the other days had.

I got up, worked out in Hunter's gym, ate breakfast, showered, read, ate lunch, watched TV, ate dinner, then watched more TV until it was time for bed. Same thing, day in, day out. It wasn't even like I could go out because all the doors were locked. So all I could do was entertain myself with whatever I had at hand.

It was almost midnight and I was just dozing off on the sofa as the evening drew to a close when I suddenly heard a strange noise. I thought I was dreaming at first, but the more I listened to it, the more I realised it was a gentle tapping noise. I thought nothing of it since this house was huge and made strange noises all the time. I passed it off, settling back into the sofa and closing my eyes again.

And then the doorbell rang.

Now I know that's not supposed to happen!

I jumped awake, my head whipping round in the direction of the front door. I was apprehensive to check it out at first. The door was locked so there was nothing I could do about it, but I wasn't sure if I should alert whoever it was that someone was in the house. The only people who needed to visit were Hunter and Stephanie and both would have keys.

I got up, tiptoeing out of the living room until I was in the hallway, the doorbell ringing again. I remained still and silent, hoping whoever it was would leave after a while.

I gasped as fingers slipped through the letter box to hold it open.

"Holly? You in there?" came a voice, my eyes widening.

It was Dean.

What the…?

I rushed to the door, kneeling down on the floor in order to look through the gap.

"Dean?" I asked in astonishment. "Is that you?"

His fingers moved and his stunning blue eyes came into view.

"Long time, no see, stranger," he said, and I could hear the smirk in his voice.

My heart thumped in my chest, my lips unable to stop the smile that forcefully appeared on them, my head in total shock. I couldn't believe it, he was actually here. He was in Connecticut and he was here with me. I could hardly believe my eyes. How had this even happened?

"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked.

"I've come to see my favourite girl, of course," he replied. "Like I said before, it's gonna take more than your big brother to keep me away from what's mine. No one is taking my girl away."

"I don't understand," I said incredulously. "How are you…"

"Here?" he finished for me. "Your sister-in-law and Randy aren't as discreet as they think they are. Paige overheard them saying where you were at the house show last night. She told me and I booked a flight immediately."

"How the hell have you managed to get away?" I asked.

"Hunter is keeping a tight leash on me, I can tell you that. But he can't do it 24/7. The boys are covering for me. He thinks I'm in my hotel room. The flight was only an hour so I came as late as I could. I can stay the night but I need to be gone by morning so he doesn't suspect."

"Do you realise how much trouble you'll be in if he finds out?" I suggested.

"Holly, he sent you away to Connecticut. I think we're in enough fucking trouble already. A little more won't hurt."

I shook my head at the brilliant man before me. "You are fucking amazing, did you know that?"

"I've been told once or twice," he said, his eye winking. "Now hurry up and open the door."

"I can't," I said sadly. "Hunter has locked every door that leads in and out of the house."

"Of course he has," he sighed. He was silent for a few moments before he spoke again. "We need a Plan B. Normally I'd kick the fucking door down but I think your brother hates me enough right now without me committing property damage to his door. So instead we'll go with Plan C. You got a bobby pin?"

"Sure," I said, thankful that I had one in my hair right now. I took it out and slipped it through the letter box. Dean took it between his fingers before I heard tinkering on the other side. "What are you doing?"

"Picking the lock," he replied.

"You know how to do that?" I asked.

"For once, the shit I learnt as a kid is coming in handy," he muttered before the lock suddenly snapped. I stood up and stood back as he turned the handle a few times and opened the door.

I was on him within seconds, running to him and leaping into his arms, wrapping my legs around him as he pulled me close. It was like a wave of relief flooded over me, like I was home, back where I belonged. His arms encased me in a way that meant he never wanted to let me go, his lips instantly attaching to mine in one of the best kisses of my life. They moved perfectly in sync, a light moan leaving my mouth as he kicked the door shut behind him, easily carrying me into the living room.

"Missed you… so much…" I managed to say in between kisses.

"Never… letting you go… again," Dean muttered as he sat down on the sofa and I straddled his lap. We broke the kiss in order to catch our breaths, my forehead resting against his as our chests heaved in order to get air into our lungs.

It had only been three days but it had been the longest three days of my life. It was the constant not knowing, the constant lack of Dean, the way I had no escape. But now everything was well again, my man was with me, and even though I knew the visit could only last one night, it was something I'd treasure for as long as I could have him. I planned to never let him go for the entire visit.

"You have no idea how hard it's been to be here without you," I said once my breathing had regulated enough for me to speak properly.

"About as hard as it's been for me back at work," he said.

"How have things been?" I asked.

"I haven't had a moment's peace," he admitted. "Your brother has been watching me like a hawk. Every movement I make, every word I say, he's been there whether its in front of my face or hiding in the background. The only break I've had from it is night time when I'm back at the hotel. I've been fighting three matches a night. I'm exhausted."

"Did he mention how my meeting with him went?" I asked.

"No, he's said nothing," he told me. "But it doesn't take a genius to figure it all out. I knew he was mad and when you didn't come into work or get in contact with me, I figured he'd sent you somewhere. The fact he's your brother has been the only thing stopping me from tearing his head from his neck and ripping out his spine. Paige confirmed where you were after overhearing Randy and Steph last night."

"It's a good job she was there," I said.

"No kidding," he said with a smile. "I just knew I had to see you. I've missed you so much, baby."

I grinned, pecking his lips softly. "I've missed you too."

"That bed has seemed so big and empty without you in it," he said, brushing his nose over mine. "You have no idea how excited I am to simply hold you tonight."

"I'm never going to let you go," I said, my heart fluttering with every word he said.

"I can't believe he's going to such extremes," Dean commented. "I know your brother is against us, but to lock you up like this is a piss take."

"Tell me about it," I said with a sigh. "All I've seen for three days are these four walls."

"I hate what he's doing to you," he said, brushing my hair behind my ears. "It's fucked up."

"It's necessary," I told him. "If it protects you and protects us, I'll do what I have to do."

"You're a grown ass woman," he commented. "He can't honestly lock you up. This isn't right."

"It's not right," I said. "It's far from right. But Hunter is angry right now, and anger is controlling him. He'll calm down eventually and come round to the idea, I'm sure of it."

"What makes you think that?" he asked.

"He went through a similar situation when he got with Stephanie," I explained. "A light-bulb will go off in his head eventually and he'll realise he's over reacted."

He looked at me skeptically. "I really hope you're right, sweetheart, because it's driving me fucking insane being apart from you like this."

"Tell me about it," I sighed.

"Anyway, I don't have long with you so I want to make the most of it," he said. "I'll have to be gone in the morning in order to catch my flight, but that doesn't mean we can't have fun while we're here."

"What do you suggest we do?" I asked.

"Well I plan to kiss you a lot," he said, causing me to giggle. "And I'm probably not going to let you go. But since I have to be gone so early, I thought it'd be nice to get up in the morning and watch the sunrise together."

I pulled back to look at him, my eyebrows raised in surprise. "Really? That's something you'd like to do?"

He shrugged. "I know I'm not good at this pissy romantic shit. Hell, I've never had a proper girlfriend before really. But you make me wanna do that sort of stuff. I don't know… it was a suggestion and-"

"I'd love to," I said, my smile wide. "It's the perfect way to spend our morning."

"Really?" he said, his eyes sparkling at the fact I'd liked his idea.

"I can't think of a more wonderful thing to do with you," I said. "We could go to that meadow you took me to before. I haven't seen the outside world in three days and I just want to get out of this house. And now I can actually open the door, it's something I'd like to do. I know I'll have to come back as Hunter is already pissed off enough with me as it is without me escaping. But a few hours of freedom sounds perfect."

He leaned forward and kissed my lips slowly and softly. "Then that's what we'll do."

I grinned against his mouth, goose-bumps trailing against my skin as excitement lit up every part of my body. All apprehension and sadness I'd previously felt after three long days of loneliness and wondering what was going on instantly vanished when in Dean Ambrose's presence. He just had this way about him, this wicked way he could control my emotions in the best manner. Everything negative would vanish with a simple look, happiness would fill me with a gentle kiss, excitement and anticipation shook me whenever he held me.

My situation was shit, but Dean offered me that little bit of sunshine and warmth that I needed to get through the crap.

He was totally right, Hunter could do whatever he wanted, Randy could run our names through the mud, but at the end of the day we both had each other. And that was all the strength I needed.

So as he picked me up and carried me up to bed, I could hardly wait to sleep simply so I could awake early for the next morning together.
