Abby's POV:

It's been a few days since I last talked to Jon. I really need to fix this but I don't know how. Colby's been getting worse everyday. The poor guy is always crying, saying he misses his brothers and I couldn't help but feel bad. I would say Colby is the most emotional one out of the three so he wasn't taking this whole 'split' very well. I texted Joe to come to catering so I could talk to him. None of the boys would be able to perform in the ring for a while. Since they split early, their gear and music and story lines weren't ready yet. 

I was already in catering, eating a doughnut and sitting next to Colby, holding his hand as he slept with his head on my shoulder. He was crying yet again and I was able to calm him down and he eventually fell asleep. Now I knew what he meant by crying himself to sleep. This isn't healthy, is it??

"Hey Abby, you wanted to talk to me??"

I looked up and saw Joe.

"Yeah."

"Urrrr......is he asleep??" he asked, pointing to Colby,

"Yeah, he's asleep. Just sit down. I doubt he'll wake up any time soon."

"I see you're both back together." he said as I nodded.

I could tell Joe was upset. The way he looked at Colby showed how much he missed him. Joe sat down and started talking.

"So, is everything alright??"

"No, look. I know you guys miss each other. I talked to Jon a couple days-"

"Don't even mention him." Joe said. 

"Why??"

"I hate that guy." he muttered but probably didn't know I heard him.

"What even happened??"

"Well, we were all messing about and Colby was actually happy. He was actually smiling. I accidentally said your name and his face dropped and he made some excuse to leave. Then Jon said it was my fault I made him unhappy after he was smiling. I know and you know damn well I didn't do anything. It was Jon who paid Randy. I said it to him out loud and Colby heard. He freaked out on both of us. He's mad at me because I knew but I didn't tell him. He said he didn't want to be with us anymore and walked out. Jon blamed me for everything and left too."

"Okay, you're both kinda at fault here. You should have told him in the first place Joe. Maybe it wouldn't have hurt as much. Jon was at fault too. He shouldn't have done what he did but he told me he regrets his actions."

"Yeah, sure he does."

I felt something moving on my shoulder so I looked down and saw Colby start to wake up. He yawned and rubbed his eyes as he got up. 

"Hey." he said sleepily as he kissed me.

"Um...Colby??" I said.

"What??" then he stopped. He slowly turned around and saw Joe sitting opposite us.

I felt him squeeze my hand as his eyes widened.

"Colby listen, I-" but before Joe could say anything else, Colby got up and just walked away.

"Babe, wait." I called out but he kept on walking.

"I'm really sorry." Joe said.

"No, it's fine. I better go after him."

Joe nodded and I got up and went after Colby.

"Sweetie, wait one second." I said as I practically ran after him.

I grabbed onto his arm, making him turn around. He had tears running down his face and it looked like he tried to hold in his sobs.

"Come here." I said as I pulled him into a hug and I heard him silently cry on my shoulder.

Jon's POV:

I watched as Colby cried as he hugged Abby. I felt horrible for what I did to him. It was all Joe's fault. I get that I'm partly to blame but if Joe let me tell him, maybe Colby would have taken it easier and we wouldn't see this day.

One hour later.....

Colby's POV:

Abby and I were back in catering. Joe wasn't around so I felt a little more comfortable. I had my head on Abby's shoulder as we held hands and watched Heath Slater vs Fandango. Suddenly, someone got in the ring and grabbed a mic. 

"Okay, get out. We've had enough of you guys."

It was Jon. What on earth was he doing?? My breathing started getting a little heavier. I felt Abby rub my knuckles with her thumb to keep me calm. Heath and Fandango got out of the ring, leaving Jon in there. They obviously didn't dare to argue with him. Looking at him now, it looked like he was in a bad mood and if you tried to say anything to tick him off, he'd probably rip you to shreds.

"Well, we still got time for a match right??" Dean said as the crowd cheered. "Well, I'm itching for a fight. I wanna get my hands on someone who has really pissed me off. This guy cost me the greatest thing to ever happen in my career."

"WHAT??!!" the crowd yelled. They were obviously confused.

"SO ROMAN REIGNS!! GET YOUR ASS OUT HERE NOW!!!" he yelled into the mic, shocking everyone.

Roman came out and got into the ring, both of them having a stare down. Everyone was confused. The fans didn't know about us splitting up. Only a few co-workers. Seeing Joe and Jon with such hatred for each other really hurt me. For years, we loved each other and now, this one incident ruined everything.

"I didn't do anything. Us splitting up was all your fault Dean!!" Roman said as everyone gasped.

"I know!! I made a mistake!! I was going to tell Seth but you just had to interrupt!! I know he would have taken it easier if you let me tell him!!"

"Well, you wouldn't have had to tell him anything if you hadn't paid Randy in the first place!!! You know, Seth is back there heart broken and it's not because of Abby this time. It's because of you!!"

That seemed to really tick Dean off because he suddenly jumped onto Roman, beating him up. They both kept punching each other and everyone was still confused. I felt my heart being torn into two pieces. Sure, we used to get into fights but it was nothing compared to this. We'd never beat each other up over anything.

"I...I need to stop them." I said, getting up and rushing over to the gorilla.

I ran down the ramp and got into the ring, pulling Dean off Roman who was on top of him, punching his face.

"STOP!!! BOTH OF YOU!!!" I yelled, getting them to stop and turn to look at me. "Please stop this crap because I can't take it anymore!!!"

"Seth, I'm telling you. It's Dean's fault." Roman said.

"Shut up Roman. Seth, do you remember when we were in bed and I said I had to tell you something but Roman interrupted us??" Dean said.

"Yeah."

"Well, I was going to tell you about what I did with Randy. Please believe me."

"I believe you Dean." I said. "But the fact that you even did that stabbed me in the heart. You tried to separate me from Abby. And Roman, you didn't bother to tell me. That hurt, you know. Imagine if it was the other way around. What if I did something to you and didn't tell you?? It would hurt, wouldn't it??" 

I looked at Roman who was looking down.

"That's what I thought. And what about you Dean?? What if I made a plan to separate you and Renee?? Would you like that, because I'm pretty sure you wouldn't."

Dean was also looking down. Now they understood how they felt.

"Do you know why I left the Shield?? Because if I have back stabbing brothers like you, I know they will never love me like a brother and they will never have my back."

I put my mic down, keeping my tears in and left the ring with Roman and Dean still standing there.
