"Open it! Open it! I know you're just going to love it!" Seth exclaimed, before shoving a box on my face. I couldn't help but laugh, before grabbing the box, and shaking it slightly, trying to see if I could tell what was inside. I couldn't. "This was all me, by the way." I playfully rolled my eyes, before ripping the wrapping paper off, and then opening up the box. Inside, was none other than a brand new Shield sweatshirt. "There! Now you're officially, officially, OFFICIALLY apart of the Shield." I laughed really hard at this, before unfolding it, and then slipping it on over my plain t-shirt.

"I love it Sethie, thank you." I smiled, before wrapping my arms around him. He hugged me back tightly, before we both pulled apart, and I leaned back into Dean's embrace some more. Today was the day that all four of us would be parting ways, and going home for the Holidays...Christmas was in a few days, and we had filmed the next two Raw and Smackdowns already, leading us into the New Year. Since I would be flying back down to my hometown of Miami, Florida...Seth would be going back to Davenport, Roman Pensacola...We wouldn't be far from each other, but i'd still miss him like crazy...And then Dean would be going back to Las Vegas, of all places...We were doing our gift exchange today, hours before leaving.

"And I love my 'Stay Brutal' sweatshirt, and new shoes...I can't believe you got the ones i've wanted for so long!" He ruffled my hair, and I giggled, feeling Dean vibrate as he laughed as well. I had already given Seth and Roman their gifts...Seth; a brand new pair of shoes that he's been talking about non-stop for weeks and of course, one of my 'Stay Brutal' sweatshirts, and Roman; also one of my 'Stay Brutal' sweatshirts and a brand new watch...He's been complaining about needing a new one. I haven't given Dean his gift yet...Well, besides the merch. What? All three of them got me something that had to do with the Shield, I may be a member now, but I was still Violet Rose.

Roman had gotten me a Shield shirt, and Dean a Shield dog-tag...It was adorable. But, apparently...Dean had something else for me, that he'd be giving me later, too. AJ had left the day before, and we had also had a gift exchange. I got her a new pair of Chuck Taylor's, and matching friendship bracelets, and she had gotten me a few new clothes from 'Pink' and a pair of Doc Marten's.

"Okay, now...Seth and I have to leave for the airport in about ten minutes, so before we go...We have two more gifts for you..." He pulled out two small boxes from behind his back, and placed them in my hands. "These...Are from all three of us."

"You guys, you didn't have to get me anything else." I told them, feeling my heart swell a bit...They really, really cared about me. Wow.

"Of course we did, Violin. You're the missing piece, remember?" Seth grinned cheekily. I smiled back at him, before opening up one of the boxes...It looked like, it was a ring box? Huh? Opening the ring box, I found the most beautiful rose gold ring, with a bow on it. It was wow...It was beautiful.

"Guys-"

"Shhh, put it on, and then open the next one."

Biting my lip, slipping the ring on my right ring finger, and squinting my eyes to stop from crying, I tore open the second box, and found the most gorgeous, gorgeous Pandora bracelet...Complete with three charms...A letter 'V', a rose and a red heart. Holy mother of...Okay, I didn't even try to stop the tears from streaming down my face, as I slipped the bracelet on my wrist, and then somehow managed to wrap all three of them into a hug at the same time.

"Thank you," I choked out through my tears. "I love you guys so much. I don't know how i'm going to get through these two weeks without you." I had never gotten such thoughtful gifts...Not from anyone in my life...Not even from my family. I had exchanged gifts with AJ, Randy, John, Daniel and the Bella's last year, and none of those gifts compared...When I dated Lucas...He- I just. I really never felt this loved and appreciated.
