Once Shaun was released, she clung to Mike. She didn't want him to leave her. He drove her back to her house.

"Can we go anywhere but here Mike?"

"Yeah. Is everything okay?"

"This is where it happened. I don't think I can go back inside."

"Okay. That's fine. I'll take you back to the pad with me. You can stay there as long as you need to. First, let me get some clothes for you. I'll be back in a few minutes."

He gave her a kiss on the cheek as he left the car to get some of her belongings. It turned out that he was a very fast packer and was out the door in 10 minutes. Quicker than she thought. He shut and locked the door as he put the suitcase in the back of the car and got back in.

"You didn't have to do that Mike."

"I know. I wanted to. I love you and I wanna make sure you're okay. And until you're ready to come home, you can stay with me and the guys."

"Okay. Since I'll be staying with you, does that mean I get to see more wrestling matches between you and Micky?"

"Yeah. Since I came back from Texas, its been almost every day. Sometimes, we would wake up Davy or Peter. We did promise that we won't wrestle at night. That's what we used to do, but about 3 months ago, Davy told us to stop doing it at night because he's trying to sleep by the time me and Micky are on the floor." He chuckled as he pulled out of her drive.

"I think I heard about that."

"You probably did. So, instead of doing it at night, we started doing it when we woke up. Well, the last time we did it when we woke up, when I say we, I mean Micky, that's basically when I hurt my shoulder. I set his alarm and he didn't like that too much."

"Yeah. I remember. You ran me out of the house so fast when you heard Micky yelling you're name! What I don't get is why you stayed."

"I don't know either. I just happened to peak in and ask Peter if he went upstairs when he was coming back down. That's how I got caught. Good times."

"Yeah. It was amusing to watch."

"I bet. Especially watching me get hurt right?"

"What? No. Although, you need to learn not to run upstairs when you do something to upset Micky the way you did."

"True. I even heard that from him."

They pulled into the drive of the pad and they both got out as he grabbed her suitcase and walked to the door. He opened it and he let Shaun walk in first, and he walked in right behind her setting her suitcase down.

"Hey Davy. I'm home."

"Welcome Mike. Its good to see you back. It seems like its been weeks since you've been home."

"That's because its only been several days."

"Ey Shaun. I thought you were going home."

"She was going to. But, she's not ready to go back there yet. So, she'll be staying here for a bit."

"That's great. You're always welcome Shaun."

"Thanks Davy. I appreciate that."

"We have a spare bedroom. I'll show you where it is." Mike said picking up the suitcase again and walking her to the bedroom. "It did have some storage boxes in it but we removed all them."

"It sounds like you're getting ready for me to move in with you."

"Yeah. I am actually. Alright, this will be you're room until you wanna go back."
