"Get off me!" I screamed and threw Cameron back. She hit the mat and yelped. Naomi still laid on the ground outside of the ring after our little fight.

I set up for my finisher and just before I could perform it AJ had ran out. The bell had rung for disqualification as she kicked my knee.

I fell backwards onto the mat as Randy Orton, Big E and Dolph Ziggler came out. They stood behind AJ and grinned evilly

"Get out of here!" one of the referees yelled as Dolph wrapped his leg around mine. He flipped me and I screamed in pain as my leg stayed in place.

"Come on Ziggler" the ref tried again "leave her alone" the crowd booed until he took a step back. But Randy set up to unleash the viper.

I was pulled out of the ring just before impact. I gripped the shoulders of the person who had helped me to keep myself standing.

"Seth" I panted. I didn't even have to look at him to know that it was actually him.

"I'm right here" he whispered.

"Get away" I tried "get Dean and Roman too"

"What are you talking about" he put his hands on my waist.

"You can't get hurt for me" my breath started to even out

"Don't worry" he chuckled "they're already gone" I fell deeper into Seth's arms. before I could say another word I was being pulled away from him.

Dean carried me into the trainer's room and barked out orders for him to check on me.

"Y-yes sir" the trainer stuttered and scurried around "right away sir"

"Leave him alone Dean" I rolled my eyes

"I'm going to kill him" Dean growled "Roman get me a match with Dolph" Roman nodded before hurrying out of the room

"What are you doing?!" I huffed

"I'm protecting my little sister" he replied and started pacing around the room

"You can't fight tomorrow" Seth rested his head on my shoulder.

"I can so" I scoffed although I was weakened at the count if Seth being so close.

"He's right India" Dean gave me a small smile. I returned it. When he started calling me India it means he's calmed down and he is ready to be reasonable.

"Your next" nope. There it goes. I glared at Roman as Dean stormed out "what did I do?"

"Turn the show on" I ordered the trainer "an you two go back up Dean" everyone did as I said and the trainer bandaged my knee.

I watched as Dean wiped the floor with Dolph. It remained that way until Dean finally pinned him. I sighed when all three of the shield began to leave safely.

"We have an announcement" Dean told everyone through a microphone. I almost ran to the ring to stop him. The longer they are out there, the more danger they are in.

I don't know if you know it yet. But the shield and I aren't very popular.

"Not that long ago you saw MY little sister right here in the ring. She was treated rather unfairly if I do say so" the crowd roared in agreement with Dean.

"But that's not going to be a problem now is it Dean?" Seth asked and I bit my lip. What are they talking about?

"As of now" Dean looked around at the crowd "Indigo Ambrose is officially a member of the shield" I squealed in excitement and the trainer smiled at me.

When the shield made it back to the trainers room I was already up and hugging them.

"Whoa little lady" Roman laughed and carried me back to a chair "you need to rest up"

"Yeah" Dean chuckled "you wouldn't want to be tired for your match tomorrow"

"My first match as a member of the shield!" I beamed. There was no way I could lose now. Not when I'm so close.

Seth...

I spun and he stood there watching me. He looked sad. As though the punching bag was his best friend and I was a bully.

"What is it?" I asked and wrapped my arms around his waist

"You just look so cute in those shorts" he shrugged

"I know I figured cause they are black that..." I started "these are the Rollins shorts aren't they?"

"Yep" Seth chuckled and kissed me on the nose. I deliberated whether to change these shorts or not and Seth piggy backed me back to my room.

"Are you going to be alright on your own tonight?" he asked as we waited for the elevator

"I'll be fine" I shrugged

"Ok the correct answer is 'Seth please stay with me. I'm so afraid and your such a man that you'll be able to protect me' now let's try this again" he rolled his eyes as though it was the obvious answer "are you going to be alright on your own tonight?"

"Seth please stay with me" I suddenly picked up an accent as though I'd been living on the prairie all my life "I'm so afraid and your such a man that you'll be able to protect me"

"Well I you put it like that" he gushed and I laughed at him. He let me onto the floor as we reached my door. I unlocked it and threw my gym bag onto the floor beside the door. I collapsed onto my bed and closed my eyes.

Next thing I knew it was ten pm. I groaned and rolled over... into Seth's arms... The movement made him whine in protest. He scratched his face but went back to sleep almost instantly.

"Indigo" he whispered so quietly that I barely heard it. I smiled and slipped out of the bed.

I wonder if Dean is awake...

I texted him and grabbed a glass of water. My phone rang and the caller ID showed Dean

"Hey" I answered quietly

"What's wrong?" he asked

"Nothing" I responded "I just woke up and wanted to talk to you. I just wasn't sure if you were awake"

"It's only ten India" Dean laughed and I could hear Roman in the background probably playing video games or something

"Well at least one of us has to be an old person and get plenty of sleep" I grumbled and yawned

"Roman wants to know if Seth is with you" I could almost hear Dean's eyes roll

"Yeah he is" I smiled.

"What are you two doing?!" Dean yelled "no no. I don't want you two together unsupervised. In fact..." I hung up on him before he could continue.

I climbed back into the bed and cuddled up next to Seth. Right now. My life was missing just one thing.

My title.

Once I got that life would be truly perfect. just wait AJ I'm coming for you.
