Ruby turned to the sides in the bed. She stretched her arms looking to find someone beside her. For a moment she forgot what had happened just before.

She stood up quickly and panicked at not finding Fernando." Fernando?"

She heard shifting in the kitchen and made her way there. Before actually getting there she kneeled in front of the dresser and took the hammer.

She walked to about half way to the hallway before Tanya met her there too.

Ruby sighed and dropped the hammer.

"Where you going to kill me?!" Tanya asked stepping back.

"It wasn't on purpose. I thought.....it was a robber or .....someone else."

Tanya nodded and set the cup of tea in her hand down. She stepped closer and took Ruby's shoulders into her hands.

"You have to rest. Maybe take a shower beforehand."

Ruby shook her head." I have to find Fernando first. Do you know where he might be?"

Tanya shook her head no. Ruby nodded and made her way to her bedroom.

"I'll leave you. I'll be in the living room for if you need anything."

Ruby nodded. She stopped half way and took Tanya's hand.

"I ...know we've never really gone along. But.....I don't have enough words to thank you."

Tanya patted Ruby's hand over hers. "I don't need any words. I was happy to help. For Sophie and Donna. And I'm sure you would of done the same."

Ruby smiled tearing up again. She pulled Tanya closer giving her a hug. Surprisingly Tanya hugged her back immediately.

Afterwards Ruby made her way to the restroom and took her dress of.

She gave little importance to the bruises on her wrists or the one in her left cheek.

The dress that she wore that night, she threw into the trash.

The water was set on as hot as she could take it. She stepped in feeling the heat against her back.

For a moment she stood there silent. Just trying to forget the fear that if not by Tanya would of stayed with her forever.

She didn't cry. But the pain could be felt in her chest. In her heart. The only thing she needed now was Fernando.

To be in his arms and remind her exactly how love felt. How true heat for one another meant.

She stepped out of the shower and for the first time in her life didn't do anything to her face.

She always applied some sort of cream and even did a full face. But then she made her way to the dresser. She wore a silk nightgown and robe.

"Tanya! Tanya!"

Tanya headed to the room and sat on the bed with her.

"I had never seen the great Ruby Sheridan without some type of glitter."

"Well....." Ruby smiled.

Ruby and Tanya jumped as the door was being knocked on desperately.

"We should go check." Ruby said. She stood from the bed and put her shoes on.

"Not without this." Tanya said showing Ruby the hammer.

Both women made their way to the door carefully.

"Grandma! It's me Sophie." Sophie knocked. Ruby and Tanya let the breath they were holding out.

Tanya opened the door. Sophie walked inside and took Ruby's hand leading her out the door.

"Soph, what's happening? Where are we going?"

"You need to stop Fernando. He's
.......he's fighting with Andres. And no one can seperate them."

"Fighting? I knew he was doing something when Tanya looked down."

Ruby glared behind her and looked at Tanya. She only shrugged and followed.

As they got to the hotel there was a bit of silence. Until Andres stumbled from out of the office with blood dripping down his lip.

Fernando followed soon behind with blood coming down his left side of the forehead. Ruby gasped loudly but neither men seemed to notice their audience.

"You son of a bitch! I knew you were troubled when you stepped on this island. But to mess with Ruby. That is something else."

"Ha! She can cry all she wanted but I could see through her facade. And she .....loved it."

Andres took a step and punched Fernando on his left side. Sam had come down as well as Sky.

"What is happening here.? What is all that noice?" Rosie asked. She stepped back quickly as the fighting men headed her way.

"Stop. Fernando basta!" Ruby let go of Sophie and ran to her lover. Taking his hand before he could throw another punch.

Fernando looked down at Ruby. She was crying and pleading with her eyes for him to stop.

"Get out of the way, bitch!" Andres said pulling Ruby's hand.

"Andres,stop!" Barbara made her way through the crowd holding Andres.
" Stop. Esto no hera lo que tenias que hacer!" Barbara whispered in a sharp tone.

"Fuck our agreement." Andres said back." I didn't even get to fuck her and now I'm going to jail. But you.....you're coming with me."

"Hell no. We had an agreement. Anything you say I will deny. And even speak against you. So keep your shit together." Barbara said.

"I'm not leaving till he's in jail. I've already called the cops." Fernando said. He hugged on tight to Ruby.

"Cops? Why?" Sophie asked.

Ruby buried her face in Fernando's chest. He instantly knew he couldn't do it with everyone here.

"I can tell you in private." Fernando said.

Sophie nodded and pulled Fernando.
"Can everyone please go to their room. We are so sorry for the interruption."

Bill, Harry, Sam and even Rosie left. Tanya didn't leave and stayed holding on to Ruby. Rosie gave her a very confused look.

But Tanya just pushed it off.

"I'm not going to jail." Andres said as he pushed off Barbara of himself. And ran to his room.

Ruby was left in the courtyard with Tanya and Barbara.

"I....Ruby I am so sorry for my....."

"No you're not. And don't come and try to sweet talk me...." Ruby said with venom in her voice." He told....as he tried to rape me that you sended him here to seduce me. I don't want you here. And I recommend you to leave before everyone here knows the type of woman you are. The police can't arrest you for planning that out. But what I can do is make your life living hell if you stay."

Barbara fumed of anger but stormed out of the courtyard towards the steps. Ruby dried her tears and stood there. Tanya was speechless.

Sophie came back running and held her grandma in an instant. Tears running down her face as she found out what her grandmother had just gone thought.

"I'm so sorry Grandma......I should of never let him stay here.....I'm sorry."

"It's okay sweetheart..." Ruby's voice was cut in and off by the knot in her throat." You didn't know......"
