The door banged open, startling the person inside. Lita turned her attention to the door, hand clinched in fists out of reflex. Seth walked in, a look of grimace on his face. He held the front of his head. He turned to face Dean as soon as the older man walked in.
Seth shouted. "You didn't have to do that!"
Dean pushed past him. "You tried to leave."
Lita turned off the monitor the minute they started another argument in the middle of the ring, so she didn't know what was going on. From this, it seemed important. She listened.
"That's still no reason to do that!" Seth exclaimed. "We won the match! I celebrated for a while. I wanted to go to the back!"
"You still tried to leave without us. I got upset." Dean explained, stepping closer and closer to Seth.
Seth wanted to throw his hands up and scream, but he had to leave it right where it was. His face was in pain from Dean's elbow after he tried to pull Dean off their opponent. The oncoming headache from screaming wasn't helping either.
Seth breathed, trying his hardest to calm himself. "You could have hurted him."
"It's a wrestling company. Did he not expect it?"
Seth was about to say something but Roman stepped into the room, immediately pulling Dean back by the shirt. He stepped between the two.
"We're going to talk about this." He tried to say as calmly as possible. But he was as pissed as Seth.
Seth shook his head. "I'm busy tonight, I told you that. Go talk it out with him. It's what you always do anyways."
It grew quiet in the room after that comment. Seth ignored it and began packing up his stuff. It seemed Lita was the only one that noticed the amount of jealousy in Seth's voice. How did the Roman and Dean not catch on to this before? Seth was clearly jealous of the closeness between the two, and they didn't notice.
Roman turned to Seth, pointing at the younger male. "WE are going to talk. I don't care if you're busy or not, you're coming back to the hotel with us."
Seth picked up his bag, pointing back at Roman. "YOU can't tell me what to do. If I said I'm busy, I'm busy!"
Roman stared hard at Seth. He wasn't going to admit that Seth's sudden outburst surprised him.
"Why are you so fucking stubborn?" Dean shook his head. It was strange hearing Dean call someone else that when he was the most stubborn person they ever met.
Seth sighed. "I can't keep doing this.."
Seth gathered his sweater and left the room without another word. He didn't respond once Dean started to run after him, demanding him to explain what that meant.
"What was that?" Lita asked Roman.
Roman looked at the door. "He has no where to go. He'll meet us back at the hotel room. He better explain what that meant."
"He didn't show up last time. He booked at another hotel when he left. Remember?"
Lita winced after announcing that. She promised him she wasn't going to mention the day this all started. Seth came back to Dean and Ro's hotel room acting all strange and since then weird things had been going on with him. People suddenly demanding him to follow them at work, his jumpy attitude, and everything else.
Roman shook his head. "The rest of his stuff is at the hotel." He grabbed his and Dean's bags and left her.
Lita stayed there for a few minutes, not really knowing what to do. She thought it was best to go find Seth before he does anything stupid. When she found him she wasn't that surprised to see him at the catering, stuffing his face with sweets. If Roman saw him doing that.. Lita smirked, it would be such a sight.
She sat in front of him, motioning at the food. "You shouldn't eat all that."
Seth glanced at her. "You're going to start telling me what to do now?" Lita looked surprise. Seth sighed. "Didn't mean to sound harsh. Just stressed."
"Maybe I should start telling you what to do. Maybe you'll actually listen." Lita grabed his half eaten cake and ate it herself. "What's gotten you so stressed anyways?"
"Arguing."
Lita was hoping she could get him to open up some more but he seemed determine to not give out any more information. She leaned back. "You guys been doing that a lot lately."
Seth looked around while Lita was lost in thought. He noticed a stage hand waving at him. "Yeah. I'm busy. Tell Dean and Ro I'll meet them back at the hotel." He got up and went on his way. He stopped to have a short conversation with the stage hand before leaving. Lita wanted to follow but knew it wasn't her business.
Seth quietly sneaked into the hotel room, wincing once the door made a loud click when it closed. He walked past the kitchen and Dean was standing there. He felt ridiculous because he felt like a teenager getting caught for coming home late. It didn't help that Dean had his arm crossed over his chest with an annoyed look.
"It's two." Dean announced.
Seth bit his lip. "Where's Roman?"
"Sleeping." Dean dug into the fridge and pulled out two cans. He tossed one to Seth who barely caught it. Dean walked into the living room, flopping onto the couch with a loud noise. Seth wondered if he was being noisy to try and wake Roman.
Dean pointed at the free space next to him when Seth didn't seem to want to go near him. Seth sat down after quietly putting his bag down. The sound of Dean opening his can was deafening in the quiet, tense atmosphere. It made him wince once Dean took a long sip, knowing Dean, it was his way of trying to stay calm.
"Talk."
Seth sighed. He put down the can on the table next to him. "About?"
Dean glared.
"I've just been busy." Seth said.
A scoff. "You're always busy."
Seth bit his lip. "Personal stuff. Stuff that I don't want to explain to you."
"Don't trust me anymore?" Dean chuckled. When Seth didn't seem to lighten up, he stopped. Dean didn't know what to say anymore. He was hoping Seth would just talk when he asked. He wasn't good at being patient and calm while trying to comfort someone to confessing stuff.
Dean asked. "Are you okay?"
Seth stared at him, blinking a couple times. He cleared his throat. "Why?"
Dean looked down and pulled at the loose thread on his jeans. "Worried I guess."
Seth reached out for him, when Dean didn't pull back he patted him on the shoulder. "Nothing's going to happen, Dean. I'm not going anywhere. Besides," Seth chuckled. "You guys wouldn't let me."
Dean sipped the last drop and dropped the can to the floor. He gave him a dimpled smile, "Just making sure."
The two sipped their drinks in the dark until both were done. Dean was done a long time ago, he just wanted to make sure Seth drank the whole thing so it didn't go to waste. Once Seth was done Dean let out a small yawn. He told Seth he was heading to bed and disappeared into the dark room.
Seth sat in the dark until he grew tired. He peaked into Dean's room to see him on the bed watching some T.V, quietly cursing once he realized he either had to sleep with Dean or Roman. The tiny couch wasn't an option so he decided with Roman. Roman was a hard sleeper so it was easy to slip into bed.
Computer crashed.. and I got really busy! I have time now to catch up.
Review me your thoughts please! They make me happy.
