She stood back and watched him interact with the fans that had made it backstage. Why the company every once in a while would make these contests where fans could win a backstage tour, she completely understood. What she couldn't understand why he always seemed to forget he wasn't single whenever there were hot women among those fans. She understood why he had fans, she understood that he interacted with them, she understood the photos and autographs he gave them, and she accepted it all. What she couldn't accept any longer was him constantly ignoring her, flirting with these fans openly in front of her, and even going as far to grab some of their asses once in a while. It hurt. She had tried for so long to turn the blind eye but she couldn't anymore.

"Usha?" Roman's voice seemed abnormally loud.

She turned her head and looked at him with wide eyes.

"Sorry, it didn't seem like you heard me. I asked if you're alright?" He said.
"I guess," she said and shrugged her shoulders.

She looked back at Dean having his arms around two skanky looking women while laughingly saying out loud that he would love to join them later that night in their hotel room. She knew he wouldn't. She knew he only said that to make them happy but it still hurt. The thought alone about him between those two made her feel uneasy about herself. There was always that evil "what if" thought in the back of her head. What if one day he would actually take one of these women up on their offer? What if one day she would no longer be enough for him?

"Dean's just being Dean. It means nothing," Roman tried calming her down.
"Yeah, you're right. It means nothing," she said and faked a smile. "Look, Roman, can you take me somewhere? I need to pick up something."
"Sure," he answered and smiled back, only difference was that his smile was real. "You wanna tell Dean that we're going?"
"No, it won't be long. He'll still be here when we get back, only covered in more lipstick than now," she answered.

They quietly slipped out before the fans noticed Roman too and started demanding pictures and autographs from him as well. He unlocked his car and two minutes later they were on the road.

"So where to?" He asked.
"Just keep going straight," she answered.
"You know, he really doesn't mean anything by it. He just sometimes gets his head stuck in all the praise and forgets that you're standing right behind him watching it all," he tried smoothing things out.

His words really weren't helping but she let him talk, every once in a while throwing in a yes or a no on her own, making sure he continued to talk instead of starting to ask questions about where they were going. She would tell him to turn left or right whenever the time was right and then make sure he would continue talking.

"Pull over here," she said.

He pulled over and first now he looked to see where they were.

"What are we doing at the train station?" He asked confused.

He looked at her as she unbuckled the seat belt with a sigh and quickly opened the door before he caught on and tried speeding away with her still inside the car. She stepped out of it and suddenly he realized what was going on and he quickly followed out on his own side.

"No! No, Usha, I won't let you do that," he said as he ran to her side and stopped her.
"It's not your choice," she said.
"Where are you gonna go, huh? And what am I supposed to tell him? Oh yeah, I drove her here so she could get away from you, Dean. Please, don't be mad at me," he said.
"So don't tell him where I went," she said.
"You know I can't. He's my best friend," he said.
"So tell him the truth. I don't care what you say, Roman, but I'm going. I just need some time to clear my head," she said.
"Come on, Usha, don't leave like this. He loves you. You know that," he pleaded.
"Well, he should have thought about that sooner," she said.
"At least tell me where you're going," he said.
"I don't know. I don't have a plan. I don't even have anything with me except my phone and my wallet. I'm gonna go in there and see where the trains are going and I'm gonna catch one," she said.

Knowing how stubborn she could be, just as stubborn as Dean which made them a hard couple to argue with and also the number one reason why he always thought they worked so well together, he decided to drop it and just pull her in for a hug.

"It's a 15 minute drive back to the arena and I'm gonna tell him straight away. It gives you around 30 minutes to get away from here," he said.
"Thanks Roman," she said.
"This is not me agreeing with you though. This is me looking out for the both of you. He could use a slap over the wrist for what he's done," he said.

He released her with a smile. She just nodded to him and hurried towards the train station. He didn't spend any time watching her get there safe. He just jumped straight back into the car and drove back to the arena.

"Dean!" He called out as he walked towards his friend still standing there flirting with fans.

Dean spun around and smiled at his friend.

"Ladies, here comes Roman," he announced proudly.

The women started acting like crazy fans as always but for once Roman decided to ignore them completely. He just grabbed Dean's wrist and started dragging him with him down the hall, leaving the fans wondering what was going on.

"We need to talk," Roman said as he dragged Dean towards the parking lot.
"Sure. About what? And where's Usha?" Dean asked.
"That's what we need to talk about," Roman said as they reached his car. "Get in."

Roman quickly filled Dean in and by the time they reached the train station, Dean was already out of his seat belt and ready to jump out of the car. Roman had hardly stopped the car before Dean took off running towards the train station. Roman followed just seconds behind. They ran inside and looked around but there was no sight of her.

"Fuck!" Dean shouted.

Everyone in there turned their heads to look at the shouting man. Roman grabbed his wrist for the second time that afternoon and dragged him out on one of the platforms to talk privately. Those few seconds it took to reach the platform seemed to have changed everything since Dean was suddenly smirking.

"I know what she's doing," he said.
"Care to fill me in?" Roman asked.
"Remember when I first met her? How she had me running all around to make me catch her?" Dean asked.
"Yeah, me and Seth used to joke about that we had never seen you acting that way because of a woman," Roman answered.
"When I finally got my claws in her, she admitted that she had loved our little cat and mouse game. That's what she's doing. I admit I got lost and thought everything was safe, that I could just do what I want and she would still be there. I forgot to treasure her the way I should," Dean said.
"So...?" Roman asked confused.
"So I'm about to go hunting again. Time to get these claws sharpened one more time and catch my mouse," Dean was grinning now while holding up his hand as if he was showing Roman his claws.

He took out his phone and tried calling her. He put it down just three seconds later.

"Straight to voicemail as expected. She knows I can track her and what fun would it be if I locate her right away? If I know her as well as I think, she's gonna turn it on at least once a day to check for incoming messages and if she still wants me, she's gonna reach out somehow to make me continue the chase," Dean said.
"This feels like some silly plot out of a movie," Roman chuckled.
"It's Usha and me. When have we ever been known to do things like normal people?" Dean laughed.
"True that. So what now?" Roman asked.
"Now I go back in there and figure out if any trains have left the last half hour and if so, where they went," Dean answered.
"I'll wait in the car," Roman said.

Dean came back out to the car five minutes later with a huge smile on his face.

"Any luck?" Roman asked.
"This is why I love small towns. Only one train has left so I know which town to start in tomorrow," Dean answered.
"Tomorrow?" Roman asked.
"Yeah, tonight I'm gonna fake an injury to be put out of action. Good old doctor Pete owes me one for setting him up with my cousin, remember?" Dean said and winked.
"Sometimes you're too crazy," Roman laughed.
"She makes me crazy and I refuse to go down without a fight," Dean said.
