"Finn, stop." I giggled when Finn wrapped his arms from behind, digging his fingers into my sides.

"But I love yer giggle," Finn spoke into my ear causing goosebumps to cover my body.

"I'm glad you guys made up but I'm trying to eat here," Sasha joked while taking a bite of her burger.

After Finn and I had made up, we decided to hang around Sasha and Sami. Sami and I had also made up, deciding that the kiss was a mistake, great as it was. Now we were all talking and joking, just like old times.

"Sorry," I mumbled while smacking Finn's hands away but failed when they remained wrapped around me.

Sighing in defeat, I leaned my head against his chest, allowing myself to completely melt in his embrace.

"When do you leave for Japan, Finn?" Sami asked leaning against the building. The barbecue had died down within the last hour and we were some of the select few that hung around.

"Thursday." Finn said and I felt the vibration of his voice against my back. "I have a contract signing with Owens on Wednesday."

At the thought of Kevin, I felt my body shiver. I hadn't seen or spoken to him since the incident in the hotel hallway and I knew Finn still wasn't over what happened.

"Try not to loose your cool, yeah?" Sami said.

Sasha must have noticed the uncomfortable tension in the air and smiled over to me, changing the subject. "Are you going with him, Skylar?"

My eyes looked up to Finn's who smiled in response. "I've had yer ticket booked for a while now."

Feeling the excitement of not only going to one of the countries I'd been dying to visit but because Finn wanted me there, even after what we had just gone through.

I laid a soft kiss against his cheek. "I'm going to use the bathroom."

Finn reluctantly let me go as I made my way into the arena and down the long hallway where the closest bathroom was. After I finished my business, I left the bathroom but walked right into a hard chest.

Looking into the eyes, I felt cold all over, as if I was frozen in place. My stomach churned as he licked his lips while looking down my chest. "Where have you been?"

Ignoring Kevin, I tried to sidestep him but he blocked me, pushing me up against the wall rather roughly. "I asked you a question." The tone in his voice went deep.

"I quit awhile ago," I squeaked out.

"Why did you do that?"

I shook my head at the fake expression he wore. He didn't care I quit, he only cared about one thing; having me.

"Leave me alone, Kevin." I spoke trying to walk away.

That only angered Kevin. He pulled me back, slamming me against the wall. I cursed as my head smacked against the concrete. Stars clouded my vision as Kevin had my hands in a vise grip.

"Kevin, please let me go," I cried out as the tears formed in my eyes.

Ignoring me completely, Kevin grabbed a fist full of hair, smacking his lips with mine. I tried with all my strength to push him off but that only angered him more. He detached his lips from mine briefly, only to feel a hot sting to my cheek not a second later. Then the fabric covering my chest ripped away from me, exposing my bare chest.

I cried out, clutching my cheek. Kevin grabbed another fist full of my hair before spinning my body around, pinning me against the wall. "Don't try something like that again," He spat.

Kevin pressed his body into mine and my stomach churned when I felt his hard member against my ass. While one of his hands held mine over my head, the other slide up my leg and underneath the bottom of my romper. Kevin continued to leave wet kisses across the nape of my neck and I felt my body shake when his hand slid over my center.

I whimpered when a finger slipped inside my lace underwear which caused a disgusting groan to leave Kevin's throat. My body writhed against Kevin as I tried to escaped his grasp. His hands dropped mine before it found my throat, gripping it tight.

"What did I fucking tell you," he grunted in my ear.

My eyes burned at the lack of oxygen and as his finger entered me, I felt my body completely shut down allowing him to do this. I was afraid that if I tried to stop him again, he would do more kill me.

"What the fuck!"

Feeling the weight being pulled off of me, my body crumbled to the floor, my hands immediately going to my throat while I tried to catch my breath. Tears fell from my eyes as I looked up to Sami who had Kevin pinned to the ground, slamming his fists into Kevin's face.

"Sami." I tried to choke out but it came out as a hoarse cry.

Feeling someone else's presence, my eyes looked over my shoulder and my broken eyes was met with Seth's and a few feet behind him stood Finn.

Seth's eyes went dark as he saw my broken state and went over to pull Sami off of Kevin to get a few hits in himself.

Tearing my gaze away from them, I sob as I looked at Finn. I could see the image of what just happened processing in his mind. He breathed heavily, looking from me to Seth who was now slamming his flesh in Kevin's, before landing back on me. Its as if he woke from his trance when he noticed I was kneeling in front of him, my breasts in full view.

"Are ya alright," He slid on his knees in front of me. Immediately he wrapped his sweater around me, zipping it up with force.

I shook my head, burying myself into his chest. I completely lost it and broke down in his embrace. The longer he held onto me, the more stiff I felt his body become. Suddenly I felt coldness as he stood up and made his way over to Kevin. Sami was trying to hold back Seth, who was shouting profanities at Kevin.

Finn ignored my cries and my eyes watched in horror as his right hand connected with Kevin's jaw, sending him to the floor.

"Finn, stop!" I wailed, watching Finn kick Kevin in the stomach. Then he landed a few more good right hands on his face, immediately busting his nose.

"Finn!" I cried louder standing to my feet. Feeling this wave of sickness wash over me, I gripped the wall to steady myself.

Seth came over to me, scooping me in his arms. His thumb wiped away blood from my swollen lip and I saw hate flash across his eyes once more. But I latched onto him, not allowing one of my best friends to nearly kill a man.

Sami looked over at Seth and I before grabbing Finn's shoulder, hauling him off of Kevin. "Your girl needs you."

Finn sidestepped him to get back to Kevin but Sami was too fast. "Dammit Finn! Look at her!" Sami screamed while pointing a finger at me.

Finn looked over at me, his eyes softening only for a moment when he noticed that Seth was the one comforting me. However, I didn't care; all I wanted was to go home and get as far away from Kevin as possible.

"Finn," I choked on my sobs when Seth reluctantly let me go, letting me fall into Finn's embrace.

"'S alright, I got ya." Finn buried his face in my hair, breathing me in.

"You guys should go," Sami nodded at us. "We'll fill Regal and Hunter in on what happened." Sami said motioning to him and Seth.

"No, you can't!" I cried pulling my face away from Finn's chest.

"Sky, they need to know what he did to you." Seth spoke.

"Make up some bullshit story. If they find out what happened, it will get around and I don't want anyone to know. I just want to forget."

Finn rubbed my back while cooing in my ear. I couldn't see his face but I knew he was nodding at Seth and Sami. "What happened here stays between us, aye?"

I chose not to stay around, gently pulling on Finn's shirt. "Can we go home please?"

"Corse," he placed a soft kiss on my forehead before wrapping me in his arms, walking with me in step out of the arena, leaving a defenseless Kevin behind.


Once Finn and I had arrived home, he positioned me on the bathroom counter and cleaned up my busted lip, making sure to leave a few soft kisses on it. He murmured something about his kisses being the best medicine. As much as I loved Finn's sense of humor, I was not in the mood for it.

"I need to shower," I spoke quietly looking down at the tiled floor, embarrassed to meet Finn's gaze.

"I'll bring ya some clothes," he went to walk out of the bathroom but I pulled him back by his hand. His green eyes looked at our intertwined fingers before slowly glancing up at me.

"One of your shirts?" I asked, using the same tone as before.

Without saying a word, he smiled before turning on the shower for me and walked out of the bathroom to give me privacy.

After I had stripped out of my clothes, I hastily tossed them in the trash, wanting to forget this night ever happened. I stepped through the curtain, letting the scalding water burn away the memories of Kevin's hands all over me.

I must have been in the shower for quite sometime because the water had turned to ice causing me to turn it off with a loud sigh. Wrapping the towel around me, I stepped out onto the bath mat and my grey eyes went to one of Finn's shirt, folded neatly on the counter. I quickly dressed, opting out of running a brush through my hair, and dragged my feet down the hall towards the Irish accent.

"She's a'right...No, she's not coming Wednesday, I want her as far away from Kevin as possible...Shit, she's going ta kill me if I tell her she can't come ta Japan."

Hearing that, I stepped into view of Finn, who had his phone clutched to his ear. "Fuck what happened tonight. I won't go to Full Sail with you Wednesday but I will be damned if you won't let me to go to Japan with you."

Finn sighed before turning his attention back to his phone. "Yeah, she heard me...I will, later Sami."

I sat down on the couch, knees brushing against Finn. "Please don't let what happened tonight stop me from being there for you on Saturday. I want to be there for you, Finn."

My eyes fluttered shut when I felt him cup my face in between his rough hands. "I want ya to be there. Can ya be ringside wit me?

"Won't that distract you?"

He shook his head. "I'd feel a lot better if I was able to watch ya."

I pecked his nose while cuddling myself into his warm embrace. "Then I'll be there."
