A/N- So I was trying to find something to really hit someone in the feels and I thought about this. Abuse is never fun and a really tough situation to get out of so if you are someone or have someone who has dealt with this and need someone please. Speak out to anyone. I want to thank @wwelover22 for helping me figure something out to make the story work out !
(sidenote: nick is the boyfriend - Some random ass name)
“Later Char” You waved to Charlotte as she headed to her truck. The parking lot began to get very vacant, you could possibly count how many vehicles were left on your hand. As tired as you were you didn’t want to leave. You couldn’t. Every time you went home it was the same thing and it was getting harder to avoid.
You get in your car and rest your head with your eyes closed, it wasn’t until you heard knocking on the window from the passenger seat. Your eyes snap open to see who it was.
“Braun?” you roll the window all the way down.
“Whats going on its like 11:30pm why are you still here?” A worried look sat upon his face as he stared into your eyes. You hesitated for a second, you look down at your hands. “Today was pretty rough i kinda fell asleep trying to collect my thoughts.”
Braun raised his hand to run it through his hair, you flinched. “Why are you flinching? Are you sure you’re okay?” The concerned look deepened on his face. “I’m just really tired Braun I’m gonna head home and go to sleep okay?” You rub your neck trying relax. Braun is staring at your neck as if he was examining you.
“What?” You calmly turn towards Braun. “What is that on your neck (Y/N)?” Braun reached up and moved your hand revealing a nasty bruise along with what seemed to be strangle marks. “What..happen…” Braun sighed with frustration. “Nothing I need to get home braun please..” You looked at him with pleading eyes. He hesitated slightly then nodded. “Call me . If you need ANYTHING. Do you understand?” He pulls you in and kisses your forehead.
“Thank you Braun.” You mumbled against him. Braun gets out and shuts the car door heading towards his truck. You start your car and head out yourself.
Braun and you knew each other since development only thing is you didn’t wrestle and you grew with the company as your dad being a well known retired ref, you decided to join the company as well just as a ring announcer, starting in NXT then practically begging to get promoted to main roaster.
You get in your driveway and notice the living room light is on, You sigh and sit for a minute then get out and head into the house. Your boyfriend Nick, sits on the couch with several cans of beer on the table and on the floor. The TV was playing reruns of The Walking Dead, His gaze turned from the TV to you. “How was work…sweetheart?” He gets up and walks in front of you getting close to you.
You begin to back up into the door staying silent as he got closer. “I bet it was nice..ya know seeing all those men shirtless and you wearing that tight little dress. They must really fucking love it and of course you as well.” His breath smelt of budlight as he came to your ear to. “How is it sweetheart? Fucking these wrestlers must be nice huh?” He scoffs at you and turns away.
“I’m not fucking anyone nic-” With a quickness he whips around and collides his hand with your cheek causing you yelp and fall against the wall. “You know lying is a sin girl. So is talking when i aint tell you to.” He downs the budlight can in his hand and looks down at you.

Braun couldn’t get the look of that mark out of his head he knew exactly what it was, He didn’t understand why you didn’t tell him what it was. He reaches down for his phone and pulls up your number to call.
Hi this is (Y/N) leave a message after the beep . Braun tried again and again and began to panic when it continued to keep going to voicemail. Hitting a complete U-turn he was in route to your house. “Why did i let her go home…please let her be ok god” He prayed to himself the whole way there.
Braun didn’t want anything to happen to you he valued you way too much to let someone hurt you. You were more than just a friend to him, it wasn’t like family either, There was feelings that he had for you but couldn’t express because he knew you were taken already.
***
You quickly ran upstairs locking yourself in the bathroom as holding the door whimpering as he banged against the door. “(Y/N) come on out you think i’m done with you? Get your ass out here now!” Nick Yelled as the banging continued. He started to pick the lock causing it to unlock, you pushed against the door trying to keep him out.
He made one giant push against the door knocking you down to the floor. You scramble close to the tub with panicking cries. “Get away from me” you fight against him as is trying to tug you up from the floor. “Alright if you aren’t about to get up i’ll just drag your ass down these stairs” Nick shouted as he pulled on your leg. Trying to grip the frame it gave you a little bit of an resistance but not enough. Nick rips you away dragging you down each step, you tried to kick away but it wasn’t working.
You start crying hysterically trying to get away but whatever you do he had a way of catching you. He finally got you to the ground and pressed his hands against your neck.
****
Braun sped down the street and saw your car, he got in the driveway just enough that he won’t get the back ripped off and parked. Walking towards the door he heard some glass break.
Banging on the door calling for you, “(Y/N)!!!” He shouted. Getting impatient he decided to kick the door down. With nick in sight being on top of you choking you. Braun look way more than pissed. Anger definitely wasn’t the word to describe it. Furious fit the scene better.
****
Tears began to roll down from your eyes as you saw Braun come in. Your vision became white and blurry until he pulled nick off of you. Coughing and trying to catch your breath you watched as braun decided to teach him a lesson.
“ It may just be you but no man should put his hands on a woman in an attempt to hurt her jackass. I’m gonna say this once if you EVER come near her or in ANY way try to mess with her then you’re messing with a damn bear aka me so to ensure you never do this again.” Braun hit Nick with a smooth uppercut making his body look limp on the ground.
You couldn’t hold back your tears as you ran into his arms. “Braun thank you..thank you soo much..” You cried harder into his chest. “C’mon we’re gonna head back to my place..” Braun took off a hoodie he had and handed it to you and guided you to his truck. You got in the passenger side and buckled your seatbelt.
The ride was quiet and calm. You began to approach his hotel and started heading towards his room, keeping your head low seemed the best to you until you got to the room. His hand lightly guided you inside the room.
“ you can have the bed i’ll sleep on the couch” He quietly sighed. You turn around and quickly hug him. “Please sleep with me I need someone to just..protect me right now.. Please..” You mumbled into his chest.
Looking down at you, he nodded as he cupped your cheeks.
“Could i borrow a shirt? To sleep in?” You give a soft guilty look. Braun reaches towards his suitcase and pulls out a really really large white tee and hands it to you. You walk towards the bathroom and start getting ready for bed.
After 10 mins you see braun already getting set to lie down. You slowly walk out and he can’t help but chuckle at how small you look with his shirt. “Don’t laugh at me please..” You whined. “I’m sorry” he smiles. You both crawl into bed and face each other. “Where else are you bruised at (Y/N)?”. Braun had a serious expression sprawled across it. You look at him for a half a second then left up your shirt revealing all the bruises. “Hmm.. i’m gonna have to put something on those..” He leaned over and began to kiss the bruises.
“Braun?!” you squeal. It took you by surprise as he placed his warm lips upon your skin. “I’m gonna make them better I promise.. I’m gonna protect you I swear on that from now on.” Braun continued making you slightly moan just a little.
