Saving grace.

Jail Visit

Seth's POV
"Wait what?!" I exclaimed in shock as Brianna told me she wanted to visit Daniel in jail." Why?!" I added completely confused as she had suffered so much at his hands and was still suffering to this day." Because until I tell him he has no control of me, he always will. And yes I know, after what just happened my logic is flawed but it's something I need to do." She said looking at me softly." Why don't you wait till court to do that?" I asked looking back at her." Because if I can't tell him off with bulletproof glass separating us, how am I going to do it when he's only steps away from me and only a prison guard keeping him away from me." She replied which I suppose was logical." Alright if that's what you really want. I'll drive you there." I replied." Will...will you go inside with me?" She said looking at me with frightened eyes." Of course my love, I wouldn't let you go in there alone." I said soothingly and she finally cracked a smile." You really are the best my love." She said leaning in and kissing me lovingly which I immediately returned." Thats because I have the best." I replied standing up and offering her my hand which she took." Let's go." I said grabbing our gear bags with my free hand and she grabbed our titles.

Brie's POV
I honestly was a bit surprised that he agreed to take me to the prison, part of me was truthfully hoping he'd talk me out of it. However, maybe he agreed with me. Maybe he knew I needed this closure if I was going to move on with my life and move on in our relationship. Once we got to the car, we set the bags and our titles in the trunk then got in the car and he began driving. A comfortable silence fell over us as I absentmindedly began playing with his fingers from the hand that was resting on my thigh." Having fun there?" He asked softly laughing and amused expression on his face." Totally, I love playing with your fingers." I said playfully and stuck my tongue out at him." What have we said about this young lady. Don't stick that thing out unless you plan to use it." He teased back." Want me to use it?" I asked with a smirk." If you'd like babygirl, knock yourself out." He replied with a wink, figuring I wouldn't do anything. "As you wish Colby Bear." I replied then licked his face and immediately began laughing at his reaction." I'm not going to lie, I was hoping you'd lick something else." He teased which earned him a punch in the arm." As if I'd do that in the car." I replied innocently looking at him as he drove." So you aren't saying no to it? Just not in the car hm? Noted Bumble Brie." He said with a smirk which earned him yet another punch in the arm." Okay, okay I surrender. I'd put my arms up, but I'd rather us get there safely." He said shaking his head while laughing." That's what I thought!" I said happily in victory.

-Five hours later-
We had finally arrived at the facility Daniel was being held at, I had spent the rest of the car ride going over what I was going to say to him a million times in my head but the moment I saw the jail I began to panic. Colby once parking the car grabbed my hands, looking at me softly." You don't have to do this if you don't want to Brianna. You owe him nothing. If this is to hard for you right now, it's okay. You went through hell and back." He said soothingly as I stayed quiet, my body literally began to shake and I began hyperventilating. "It's okay, its okay. I'm right here my love, I'm right here." He said soothingly, wrapping his arms around me which began to help my shaking. I took a few deep breaths trying to control myself. Eventually I began to pull myself together." You don't understand, it'll never be okay." I said softly, not in a hurting tone but truthfully and he nodded." You're right Brianna, I'll never know what's you went through. I'll never know the mental and physical pain you endured. And I'll never be able to. But one day you will be okay. You're the strongest women I know. If you don't want to see him, we can turn right around." He said looking at me then leaned in and kissed my forehead."..I just don't want you to look at me any differently after this conversation." I admitted honestly, yes he knew I'd been abused but he didn't know to what level. "Nothing will ever make me feel any differently towards you Brie, I'll always love you. I promise you this." He said looking directly in my eyes." Pinky promise?" I asked sticking out my pinky and meeting his gaze." Pinky promise." He said locking his pinky with mine." Then let's do this thing." I said leaning in and giving him a firm loving kiss on the lips which he returned before we both got out the car and walked hand in hand into the jail. Once we got to through security, we walked to the front desk." Who are you hear to see and what's your relation to the inmate?" The lady at desk asked." Bryan Danielson, I'm his ex-wife and this is my boyfriend." I replied saying his name for the first time in a long time as myself and Colby both passed over IDs then we were given visitor badges moments later. We were led to the visitation room and I took a seat at one of the stalls and Colby stood behind me protectively. Moments later, Daniel began to walk our way. My first instinct was to run to the hills, Colby must've sensed that as he placed a hand on my shoulder in a comforting way." I'm right here my love, you'll be okay." He said softly and I nodded as both myself and Daniel picked up the phones." Well, well just can't stay away from me can you?" Daniel said with a smirk." What is your new boy toy not satisfying you like I could? We could always arrange for a conjugal visit sweetheart." He said a smug expression on his face. I mentally took a deep breath trying not to get rattled. It was a good thing Colby couldn't hear what he was saying or he probably would've tried to break the glass already." This is what's going to happen. For once in your damn life you're going to shut up and listen to me. Or else, I'll gladly yell as loudly as I possibly can what you did to me for all the people in this room to hear. And you know what they do to people who abuse their wives in here right?" I said as shock washed over Daniel's face but he quickly regained his composure." Oh please, you wouldn't do that to your husband. You know you still love me deep down Brianna." He said confidently." Oh? You haven't heard? We are no longer married, I'm no longer yours. And I have to say it feels amazing. As for rather or not I'd yell, you really wanna chance that?" I asked raising an eyebrow at him, more confident than he's ever seen me." Fine, talk." He said rolling his eyes clearly not amused. "How could you?! That's what I really wanna know. How could you do this to me for years. I loved you, I did everything you asked. I was an amazing wife to you. I loved you with everything in me but that still wasn't enough for you. You broke me. Every day for four years, you broke me. You made me feel worthless, you made me feel like it was my fault. But then slowly, day by day that love I once had for you turned into hate. Slowly I become emotionless, a shell of myself. I no longer loved you, hell I could no longer even tolerate you. I went through the motions, everyday just hoping you'd slip up. But you were precise, you always had eyes on me. Anytime I was about to open my mouth and tell someone, you'd beat me within an inch of my life. You'd leave me bleeding on the bedroom floor of our hotel, then tried to kiss all over me and fuck me the moment I cleaned up and gained consciousness. I'm not gonna lie, I gave up. I no longer just hated you, I hated everyone. I hated the world for putting me in this position. But then, one day my opportunity finally came. You rarely beat me at work, I mean how could you. The walls were thin, there were plenty of people who could see. Finally, one day I had enough. I pushed you far enough that I knew you'd do something to me. And before you could gag me, I screamed my lungs out knowing Nicole and the boys were close. See the ironic thing here Daniel is, now it's your turn to be someone's bitch. The moment this trial becomes public, you're going to have a hell of a time in there." I said as my gaze never left his once, I could see he was fuming then suddenly he was laughing." You really think you're going to win this case huh? Oh my poor sweet Brianna, you couldn't be more wrong. And once I'm out of here, you will be mine again. Marriage certificate or not you'll always be my property." He said and that's when I lost it." I was never your fucking property to begin with! I'm a human being. I'm not a damn object, you can't own me. Four years, four miserable years I spent with you. You treated me like a queen at the beginning then in the end treated me as if trash. What the hell happened to you?! Or maybe you've always been like this but I was to stupid to see it in the beginning. Well my eyes are wide open now Daniel, and you may want to get used to the orange jumpsuit because it's all you'll be wearing for awhile." I said then slammed the phone down, got up and turned around and kissed Colby passionately. I could immediately hear Daniel banging on the glass in anger, as Colby and I continued to kiss, his hands resting on my ass now as I pressed my body against his then slowly pulled away." I love you so much, Colby." I said then Colby grabbed the phone." Well we have to get going Daniel, if you can't tell Brianna clearly wants to have some fun now with a real man." He said then slammed the phone into the receiver as Daniel in rage continued to hit the glass and a guard came to take him away. We stood there smugly watching him getting taken away." I love you too, Brianna. More than anything in this world." Colby said grabbing my hand as we headed out of the jail, it felt as a weight had just been lifted off of me.
