Dean and Roman fell asleep hunched over on the top of the table. Un-noticed by them Nicky was tossing and turning in her sleep clawing at someone who was invisible to them but real to her. Her throat felt filled and she felt powerless. Nicky wanted her dad, she wanted to be with her dad, feeling his hugs and kisses. She wanted to feel safe again, Dean woke up from hearing soft whimpers in the night. Then the sound of tussling bed sheets. He looked over at the snoring giant, shaking him awake. Roman cracked one eye open clearing not pleased to be woken up. The Samoan opened his mouth to yell at the Ohioan before he was shushed and told to listen.
"Stay away please. Dad…Daddy" The silent whispers from the red head sleeping in her bed reach her two lovers ears. Roman and Dean quickly jumped out their seats turning on the night lamp from the table beside her. Nicky bed sheets were kicked off while she was tossing and turning in her sleep. Her auburn hair was sticking to her forehead a look of distress was on her face. Dean cautiously sat down on the side of the bed soothing her hair back. Roman sat on the other side holding her soft petite hand in his colossal one, rubbing his thumb over the stop saying soothing words into her ear. Her hand gripped onto Roman's touch while she moved her head closer to Dean Touch. Her soft whimpers died away as her face started to relax back. Soon enough Nicky was back to sleep, her chest rising and falling in a rhythmic pattern. Both men looked at each other before pulling away slowly from her, both bringing up the covers she kicked away from herself. Both men sighed in relief not noticing their 3rd member standing at the door that connects their room.
"So, did I miss something?" Seth said crossing his arm. Dean cringed, while Roman only looked over his shoulder. They knew they had to tell Seth now.
(Morning time)
Seth was rocking back in the chair thinking about his two best friend and the red head sleeping soundly. He heard Roman speaking and soft whimpers so he went to check it out. He opened the door to see his two best friend over the red head comforting her in her sleep. Both men held adoration in their eyes as they watched Nicky become quiet.
Seth actually liked the girl also, even watching her as a kid he had a small crush. Which followed up with the discussion he had with his friends.
They all sat at the table and Roman told Seth about Dean and himself having feelings for her. That they came up with sharing her since they didn't want to start a fight within the shield.
"I want in." Seth said both me looked at the two-toned man on the other side in shock. Dean speaking first.
"Whoa bro you like her too?" He ran his hair through his curly copper hair. Seth smirked sighing.
"Bro, I had a crush on her since I was a kid. Even when Triple H traded her for his and Stephanie protection, why do you think I jumped at the opportunity of having her with us?" Roman and Dean looked at each other with shocked expressions.
Now it was the three members of the shield that have fallen for the red head beauty.
The sun crept through the blinds gracing the girl sleeping soundly in the bed. Her arms and legs were wrapped in bandages because of all the cuts she got in the woods. Even with all the bandages she look so fragile and perfect. Seth sighed he didn't mind this shift change with his partner but he also didn't like being awake before the sun. Laying his head on his arms on top of the table, Seth Rollins started dozing off.
Nicky woke up sitting up quickly looking around, she saw a pass out Seth sleeping down at the tables the rooms provide. Nicky debating if she should leave again only this time while they were asleep but then she thought what if she runs into her childhood kidnapper. No one was around to save her, and about the safest place besides her private house in Texas, or her father presence was with the shield. There was no way of her leaving any ways since her uncle did sign her over to them. Nicky really didn't have choice in the matter and she didn't like making choices.
The red head looked down at her arms and legs seeing the bandages wrapped around her like a mummy but the job was only half done. She giggled silently before walking over to the luggage she had pulling a Rosa Sweater, White High waist denim pant shorts, and Athena black capped toe flats. Walking into the bathroom she slowly unwrapped herself seeing the extent of her cuts. Small cuts were scattered all over her arms each one she could recall where exactly she got it at. Sighing going into her bag she pulled some bandages to change the old ones. Brushing her teeth she striped her clothing taking a shower trying to wash away the memories of yesterday.
After her shower she was fully wrapped back up and changed into her clothing, her red hair was in a messy bun. Sitting back on the bed seeing how early it was, Nicky settled for some old cartoon on the television.
(Around noon)
Nicky ordered breakfast for herself and the guys since it was already 12 O'clock. She patted Seth leg shaking him a bit.
"Rollins wake up." Nicky spoke softly. He groaned a little before he turned his head away. Nicky sighed she hated to be ignored so she decided to do something better. Going to bathroom door she opened it wide and slammed it shut as hard as she could. Seth jumped up and fell down onto the floor, running over to the door before he notice a hysterical Nicky laughing on the floor. The two-toned man was partially annoyed for the heart attack she gave him but his heart melted hearing her childish laughter.
The room the other two partners swung open and both rushed in seeing Nicky laughing and Seth standing over her his hair dishevel.
"What the hell happened?" Roman barked out stopping Nicky laughter her face turning slightly freighted.
"Whoa big guys. Nicky just decided to wake me in a unreasonable loud manner." Seth said trying to calm down the cranky powerhouse. Dean look irritated by the look on his face.
Nicky only looked so innocent, "I was just trying to wake you up for breakfast." She said moving a passed them all going to bed, going back to watching her cartoons.
All three members looked at the table filled with food, deep down they knew they made a mistake.
(Drive to a Raw)
Roman was driving in the passenger while Nicky was in the back with Seth and Dean was snoozing away in the passenger side. Everyone hasn't said a word since the whole breakfast and guilt was eating at them all. Nicky besides her breakfast she even told them she would work with them since she under contract anyways. They all nodded their heads and haven't really bothered her, when they made it to the hotel they were going to currently stay at. They dropped off their bags and left their duffels full of ring gear in the car. This time they had another bed in Nicky room while there was two full queen size bed for the other room.
They all decided to catch some lunch before they would go to the arena. During lunch they needed to discuss some things with their new addition. Especially what is going on between the three members?
"Alright let's talk." Dean said chilled next to Seth. All four members got a booth in the back so they would not be disturbed by fans.
Roman looked over at the Red Head who only paid attention to the menu biting her bottom lip while she was thinking.
"Nicky, this morning we are all sorry for the way we…" Dean cough In the middle of Seth talking pointing to the powerhouse. Only Seth rolled his eyes.
"Like I was trying to say we are sorry for the way WE acted this morning." All the shield member's waited for Nicky to explode with damn straight you better be sorry. The only thing the little girl replied with was a "Its fine."
All the men took a deep breath sighing now that was over now they only had to discuss the terms in their contract with her and also their agreement.
After they finished lunch, Nicky hardly ate she didn't feel right today she took a couple bites of her bacon burger before she felt a cold chill in the air. She pretended to listen to Dean and Seth while they talked but she was not even in her own mind state.
"Now Nicky this is very important what we have to tell you" Nicky green eyes looked at the grey orbs of Roman Reigns.
"I'm listening." She said looking outside the glass window for the man.
"We all made an agreement…" Roman was interrupted when the waitress came to collect our plates and give the check.
"Roman can you let me out I need to use the bathroom." Nicky said, Dean gave a look of tell her before she goes along with Seth.
"Sure" he moved so she could get out. Roman decided it wasn't the best time to tell her now.
(Arena)
After lunch they headed to their locker room unloading the car, Nicky was actually socializing with Rollins and Dean would jump in occasionally.
"Blue sign" She laughed.
"Red hair" she hit his arms walking inside the building, with all the others. The shield has a specific area in which other superstars don't have clue where they are.
"Hey that's no fair." She said poking her tongue out. Seth laughed.
"Nothing isn't fair doll face." Dean said poking her side. Nicky jumped to the other side of Roman so she wasn't anywhere near Dean or Seth.
"Oh found a tickle spot I see." Dean said, Nicky shook her head. She was actually comfortable with these three men, laughing and giggling.
Roman found the door to their locker room he opened it about to turn on the light, when red hair flew past him inside followed by shrill screams.
"Guys come on we don't need the whole area knowing we are here." Roman laughed at the two others antics before he switched on the light. Turn inside Nicky was facing his way while his eyes grew wide.
Nicky tilted her head, not catching what was making Roman eyes go wide.
"Dude what you are… Oh shit." Seth said standing there with Dean.
"Nicky don't turn around. Just come back over here and we can go to another room." Roman reasoned.
"What are you guys talking about don't turn around?" Nicky turned and shouts of protest were yelled out.
On the wall in big letters said "Found you Nicky" all in red letters.
Nicky felt her knees go weak but was quickly swept up into muscular arms her eyes shut closed. He found her, she wasn't ever going to be safe again. Nicky started to think how bad he was going to abuse her or keep her hostage again. She kept thinking no one was safe, she couldn't breathe. Nicky knew she knew she was having a panic attack.
(A/N: I really could not sleep. It's like 2 o'clock in the morning so I wanted to post this.)
