Chapter 1: You're safe now
2:56 Thursday morning
Roman was asleep when he suddenly heard banging on the door. Glancing over at his clock he groaned. "Who the hell is that?" He got out of his hot and comfortable bed and looked out of the peephole, ready to murder whoever was on the other side of his apartment door. His anger vanished when he saw a familiar figure standing outside. "Seth, what are you doing here?" He says when he opened the door.
Seth stood there with his right arm around his stomach, head down and hood covering his face. "Can I stay with you?"
Roman glanced down the quiet halls before looking back to Seth. Reaching up he removed the hood and sighed. Seth's face had a freshly made bruise under his eye. He walked up to the smaller male and pulled him close to him. Seth wrapped his arms around Roman's waist and buried his face in the crook of his neck. "It's okay, you're safe now." Backing away he rubbed the side of Seth's face. "Come on." When Seth came into the apartment Roman closed and locked the door behind them. Going to the kitchen he grabbed a bag of peas, a wet rag and sat on the table in the living room in front of Seth. "What happened?"
Seth placed the bag of peas on his eye while Roman wiped away the blood from his bottom lip. "He was drinking again, I left when he finally passed out."
"You can wear some of my clothes and I will get your things tomorrow." Roman rang his hand through Seth's long hair. "I'll take tomorrow off and stay here with you."
A small smile appeared on Seth. "Thanks Rome."
Roman took Seth's hand and led him to the spare bedroom he had. He left Seth alone to get him some sweats but when he came back Seth was laying down on and asleep. He began removing Seth's clothes, pausing when he saw the purple and black bruises on his stomach. Once Seth was finally dressed in a pair of his sweats and sweat shirt he moved him under the sheets and kissed him on the head. "He'll never hurt you again Seth, I promise." He quietly left the room and went back to his room.
The next day
Roman was sitting on his living room couch eating eggs and bacon when he heard knocking on his door. Getting up he unlocked it and went back to the couch, Dean walked in and he immediately knew he was pissed. About ten minutes ago he left Dean a message, telling him what happened to Seth. "How's Seth and where is he?"
"He's still asleep in the spare bedroom," Roman lifted his feet on the table and went back to watching the TV. "There's something else Dean, we thought it was just his face but last night I found out that had all kinds of bruises on his chest and back. Some of them looked old and some of them looked new."
Hearing that only pissed Dean off more. "That son of a bitch is going to pay this time." He grumbled.
Roman watched as Dean paced back and forth in front of him. "You're not going to do anything Dean."
Dean glared at him. "How the hell can you be so calm after what happened to Seth!" He yelled.
"Lower your voice." Roman got up and walked back to the spare room where Seth was and saw that Seth was still asleep. Sighing he walked back to the front where Dean was still standing, hands on his hips. "Look I'm going to go over there and get some of his stuff."
Dean smiled. "Great, I'll come with you." He headed to the door but Raman stopped him by grabbing his arm. "What, you're not going over there by yourself."
Roman smiled. "I'm not afraid of him Dean and besides I don't want Seth to wake up to an empty house. Can you just stay put until I get back?"
Dean growled but walked back to the couch. "Fine." Roman only shook his head and left the house. When he left Dean got up and walked back to the spare room. When he cracked open the door Seth was sitting up on the bed, his knees pulled to his chest. "Hey kid."
Seth looked up at the door and smiled. "Hey."
"Are you hungry, Roman made breakfast." Dean says.
Seth moved to get out of the bed but stopped and looked down when he noticed he was wearing Roman's clothes. His eyes grew wide as he thought about the bruises and scars. Roman knows and Dean probably knows now too. "Dean-"
"It's okay Seth, we don't have to talk about that until you're ready." Dean walked over to the bed and removed the covers. "Come on, I can hear your stomach growling from over here." He smiled when Seth got out of the bed, Roman's clothes were huge on him.
...
Roman didn't let it show but he was pissed. He slammed his car door and made his way to the front front of dark blue house. After banging and banging the door flew open.
Hunter's eyes were bloodshot and he had a horrible headache. His eyes were half shut to shield himself from the bright sun. "What?"
Roman didn't respond, instead he pushed pass the male and into the house. "I'm here to get Seth's things, if you get in my way you'll regret it."
Hunter watched as he headed up the stairs and closed the door. About thirty minutes later Roman was making his way back down, carrying four big duffel bags with him. He watched from the arm of the couch as he set them down to open the door. "Tell Seth I'll see him soon because we both know that he'll come back to me, just like he always does."
Roman paused and turned to the slightly bigger male. "Not this time and you have my word on that." Picking up the bags he left the house and threw the bags in the back seat. When he looked back towards the house he saw Hunter standing at the door, a smile on his face as he gave Roman a wave before closing the door. Roman growled, got back in his car and headed back to his apartment.
...
"Where's Roman?" Seth asked from the couch.
Dean handed Seth his plate of food and sat down next to him. "He had to do something, said that he wouldn't be long." He watched as Seth slowly ate the food before sitting back on the couch. He glanced at Seth's bruised eye and shook his head. As much as he tried he couldn't hold in his anger anymore and he turned away from his friend. 'I'm going to fucking kill him when I see him." He grumbled under his breath.
Seth set his plate back on the table before pulling his legs on the couch. He had been used to this sort of life. When he was little he dealt with an abusive father before he was put in foster care at the age of fourteen. There he met a seventeen year old Roman who was the son of one of the women that worked there. Sixteen year old Dean showed up at the shelter a few weeks later. The three of them became fast friends and have been together ever since. He was pulled from his thoughts when a hand was placed on his leg. Dean was watching him, worry in his eyes. "Sorry I was just thinking about how the three of us met."
Dean smiled and leans back on the couch, still watching Seth. "What's going on in that head of yours?"
"I'm just tired of being hurt by the people I love." Seth says looking away from him.
"Well you never have to worry about that with me and Rome because we would never hurt you." Dean says. "You'll always be safe and loved here with us."
Seth smiled. "I know Dean." Just then the door opened and Roman walked in and drooped the bags on the floor. "Roman?"
"I got your stuff." Roman says closing the door. "Now you don't have to ever step foot in that house again."
Seth watched as he picked up the bags and headed back to the spare bedroom. Once he was out of sight he turned back to Dean. "I'm so glad that you guys are still here."
"And we wouldn't want to be anywhere else." Dean says. He was never comfortable with all the emotional stuff but in times like this he wasn't afraid to let it show. "Finish your food before it gets cold." Seth put down his legs, picks up his plate and started eating again. Dean just watched him before his mind drifted to what Roman said about the bruises and scars on Seth's chest and back. He wanted to know when and how they got there, plus he wanted to know why Seth never said anything but he kept that to himself. When Seth was ready he would come to them but he still couldn't stop thinking about it.
