"I said fucking call him mate." Finn's eyes sparkled while he sis his best to convince his friend. He knew Dean needed to be encouraged to make a move.
"I told you to forget about it man, He don't want to hear from me he was just being nice. He was doing whatever any decent person would do." Dean seriously felt strange about making the call he knew he should thank him but he sure didn't think that the other man really ever cared if he heard from him or not.
"Dean you need to rethink this. You just told me that you thought the guy was cute and other than Seth I haven't heard you say that about any man for the last two years."
"I doubt he is gay. He didn't let off that vibe man." Dean thought about what he remembered about the other man. There couldn't be any way he was interested in Dean even if he was gay.
"Well regardless you owe him a big thank you now call him." Finn once again tried to reason with his friend.
"Maybe" Dean blurted out in a bratty tone which always annoyed the Irish man. "I'm hungry lets grab something to eat and get you home in time to meet Sami when he gets off of work."
"Fine but you're going to call him or I won't stop bugging you until you do." Finn smiled brightly at his friend. "Let's go and you're paying."
After breakfast…
Both men sat on the bench in central park and sipped on their coffee which they had almost finished. They had eaten and taken a walk around the park then stopped to grab some coffee before finding a vacant bench. They sat there for almost an hour talking about Seth and anything and everything that popped into mind. Dean was never really down when his best friend was around he always cheered him up. They actually had that effect on each other they just knew each other so they knew what it took to make each other happy.
"You should get going soon so you can be home when Sami gets there." The taller man said while he glanced at his watch.
"Are you trying to get rid of me?" Finn asked curiously noticing it wasn't even noon yet.
"No not at all." Dean laughed he didn't want to admit that he hadn't stopped thinking about calling Roman. Halfway through breakfast the New York City native made up his mind that he was going to call the other man even though he doubted that he was even slightly available straight or otherwise. Truth was he came up with a plan to at least invite him to dinner as a thank you. He wanted to lay his eyes on the other man one more time to see if he was truly as perfect as he remembered him.
"What are you up too Dean? You're in a hurry to get rid of me."
"No I'm not man I just think I monopolized enough of your time." He smiled trying to look convincing. "I wouldn't mind going out for dinner with you and Sami though. That would actually be nice to not have to be alone all evening." Dean lost his smile while he said the last sentence.
"Yeah mate, you got it. We can meet and go wherever you want just give me a call and let me know what time you want to go out." The brunette patted Dean's leg sweetly before wrapping his arm around him. "Sami would love to see you anyways mate. He always says we don't hang out enough." Finn hugged his friend tightly and Dean snuggled into his arms enjoying the comfort his friend always made him feel.
"Good I will call you with a time and a place." He was thankful he wouldn't have to spend the entire night alone.
"Don't forget to call me and don't forget to call Roman either." Finn winked at the other man while he stood.
"Shut up" Dean mumbled out when he stood up and walked off while flipping the Irish man off not even bothering to look back. Finn laughed while he walked off in the other direction. He couldn't help but smile to himself knowing just what Dean would do next.
…
Once the auburn haired man arrived home he threw himself on the couch looking around his penthouse, he was going to have to give the maid a bonus this week she did a great job cleaning up the place after the party last night. He grabbed the paper Roman had wrote on for him and held it in his shaking hands. "Hercules" Dean said aloud while a smile covered his face putting his dimples on full display. More and more had come back to him about that night the other mans piercing gray eyes and his big muscular arms. He picked his phone up, it was now or never. He sat forward on the couch running a hand through his hair while sighing deeply. "I got this" he said a loud trying to convince himself. His body shivered as he dialed the number and it began to ring. He counted each shrill ring he heard the phone make before it went to voice mail.
"Hey this is Roman I can't answer your call right now so leave a message or don't, whatever." Dean laughed slightly before he heard the beep sound.
"Hi , umm hey this is Dean we met the other night I just wanted to say thank you for saving my ass Hercules I owe you one." Dean paused for a second taking a deep breath "maybe you can call me back if you want ya know. You don't have too but if you want too then you can. Either way it's cool." He slapped his self in the forehead with the heel of his hand. "Yeah thanks for the other night either way, I mean you know thanks for bringing me home." Dean smacked himself again "fuck" He blurted out loud before hitting the pound button expecting to be able to start over only somehow his call had been dropped and he wasn't even sure if his message was sent or erased.
Dean panicked and his phone sounded off through the room he shook with anticipation he grabbed it quickly and was relieved when he saw Finn's number on the caller I.D. even though a part of him was a bit disappointed. "hey man" Dean answered the phone trying to sound completely normal.
"Hey I talked to Sami and he is in the mood for total shit food mate. He wants burger king or Taco bell. He may want both I don't know. I swear he thinks he is the one carrying the baby." Dean laughed at what his friend had said it was true ever since Finn and Sami had found a sergeant mother for them to have a baby he had developed some seriously horrible cravings.
"Okay whatever but see if you can't talk him into a real burger place instead." Dean had to try to at least make an attempt "or maybe some real Mexican food."
"Alright I'll try. Did you call Roman yet?" Finn shamelessly asked.
"No not really." The taller man said slightly annoyed. "Let me know what Sami says." He said before ending the call. He didn't want to be interrogated by his best friend not now.
A second after he tossed his phone on the table it was already ringing he grabbed it not even bothering to check the caller I.D. and just assuming it was Finn. "What the fuck do you want now you cock sucker?"
"Ummm I was just you know calling you back." It wasn't Finn "You called me and left a message it's me Roman." Dean freaked out he couldn't even speak his jaw hit the floor and he was voiceless. Roman didn't hear any reply and spoke out a nervous "hello."
"Yeah umm hello Roman I was umm I thought you were someone else." Dean bounced around nervously on the couch. "I umm I'm sorry I answered like that I yeah sorry." The smaller man heard his blood rush through his veins he couldn't believe how uneasy he was.
"It's okay I wanted to call you back and see how you were doing." The tone of the Samoans voice sounded as if he was genuinely concerned. "I mean you were in a horrible place the other night, I hope things are a little better."
"I'm alive and well." The minute the words left him Dean came to the realization that it was true, he was Okay. Seth was gone and even though a part of Dean was sad about that another part was relived and he was almost excited about what may happen for him. There was a certain calm about the uncertainty of what may happen for him next. "I owe you a huge thanks man."
"No problem man I hope things get better for you." The Samoan said before Dean heard the voice of a small girl in the background.
"Daddy I am gonna sit in the window seat." The little girl's voice announced excitedly and then continued to talk in the same tone. " I'm gonna get to see what it looks like to fly." Roman laughed before he spoke.
"That's right baby it's just like you will be flying." Roman laughed and Dean could picture a goofy smile on his gorgeous face. "I am about to bored my flight in a few minutes, my daughter is really excited as you can probably hear." Once Roman finished speaking the curly haired man heard the little girl giggle in the background as if she was being tickled.
"Where are you going?" Dean asked absentmindedly trying to be polite even though his heart secretly sunk. Roman had a daughter he must really be straight just like Dean suspected.
" My princess and I are going to the big apple. She wants to see the big buildings and Central Park."
"And the American girl store Daddy." She spoke up and Dean couldn't help but smile she seemed adorable. A second later it hit him Roman was about to board a plane that was coming to his city.
"You're coming to New York City?" Dean asked "Seriously are you really?"
"Yeah that's what I said" Roman laughed and once again Dean saw hat big goofy smile spread out on the other mans perfect features.
" I live in New York, You have to let me take you out to say thank you. I mean we could go to dinner of maybe to the zoo with your wife and child." Dean couldn't believe just how crafty he was trying to be pumping Roman for information.
"Uh I'm not married and you don't have to do that. I don't want to put you out man. I mean my cousin is going too so maybe he could watch Jenny one night. I don't want you ummmm going out of your way to entertain me and a kid." Roman laughed nervously "Will Seth be following you around? Because he seems like a dick." Roman couldn't really believe he went that far. He really wanted to know if they were together or if Dean being in Atlanta had ended it. He was sure that they must have made up by now because if not Seth was a fool to just let the blue eyed cuie pie out of his life.
"No he won't be." Dean said quickly "he and I are no longer together."
"Sorry man." Roman said quietly he had to force the words to leave his mouth because he really wasn't sorry at all. Hearing that made him decide, he would make some time to reconnect with Dean in N.Y.C. "You know what today it's a little crazy for me and all so I'll call you later tonight or maybe tomorrow and we can make some plans. My cousin has some interviews tomorrow so maybe we can plan something to do."
"Yeah defiantly give me a call I'll be your tour guide." Dean smiled while he nervously chewed on the side of his nail.
"You know you don't have to do that Dean."
"I want to though so call me ok." Dean's voice had a hint of excitement to it this was almost too good to be true.
"Okay I'll call you; I have to get on the plane now its boarding." Roman said into the phone "Bye Dean I'll talk to you later."
"Yeah I'll keep my phone close so I don't miss your call." Dean rolled his eyes as soon as he said that and then blurted out "Goodbye." He thought he may have sounded too desperate but the truth was he was sort of.
"Who was that?" He heard an all too familiar voice ask softly.
"Seth what the fuck are you doing here?" Dean snapped out when he turned around.
"I live here or I did or I want to anyways." The smaller man hung his head for a second before looking back up with tears in his eyes. Last night while Seth was forced to camp out on the couch at a friend's house he realized just how much he needed Dean. He needed the blue eyed man more than he ever would have needed Seth. "I'm sorry I have been such a little fucker lately Dean."
"Too little to late Seth I'm not going to let you just lay around using me for all I am worth." Dean stood up and walked over to him "since you're here I will take my key back now too." He held his hand out waiting for the brunette to hand it over.
"Please don't make me leave all I'm asking is you give me one last chance Dean." Seth reached out grabbing on to the other man's hand while he tried to guide the taller man's arm around him.
"No Seth it isn't my problem anymore you're not my problem do you got it?" Dean pulled back from the smaller man "just hand my key over and grab whatever belongs to you all I ever wanted was for you to love me Seth but it wasn't meant to be so I guess I need to love myself enough to stop waiting for it happen and just move on."
"Just one more chance baby and I'll make it worth it for you I promise." He boldly stepped over to the taller man and tucked his fingers into the waistband of his jeans trying to pull him forward. "Let me make you feel better." His smaller fingers worked on Dean's belt before moving over to the button of his jeans "I haven't tasted you in so long mmmm I want to make you cum." Seth expertly handled Dean's cock in his hand massaging the other man making him become hard in his hand simply with his touch alone.
"Oh you want this dick now do you?" Dean asked as he smiled down at the brunette.
"Yes I do." Seth licked his lips his brown eyes dark and seductive.
"You should have wanted it when you could have had it now get the fuck out." Dean laughed pushing Seth away.
"Dean you're just going to throw away two years?" Seth whined out while he picked himself up off of the floor. "I am not going to fucking lose you. I'm going to get you back."
"Right now all you're getting is your stuff Seth. Now give me your damn key." Dean wasn't going to let Seth get his way. He was sick of it that he gave him his way for two years now and he wasn't going to have it his way this time.
"Fine here" Seth fumbled with his key ring trying to slip the key to the apartment off of it once he finally got it off he threw it at Dean hitting him in his chest before it fell to the ground. Dean watched the other man turn and walk away down the hall heading to the bedroom before raking his fingers through his hair and growling out in frustration.
"Go get your shit and run back to your new money horse you spoiled little bitch." Dean knew that he started a whole new argument as soon as the words left his mouth but he deserved to say his peace. He needed to get his frustration out too and he had chocked on all the words he bite back all these years. Dean continued to talk loudly while he paced the hallway making sure Seth could hear every word while he waited for any sort of protest from Seth but it never came. Minutes later the smaller man emerged with a small suitcase "is that all you're going to fucking take?" Dean asked hoping Seth was taking everything today.
"I can't carry too much in a cab." Seth explained while he pulled the bag down the hallway behind him "I'll get the rest soon."
"I'll pack it and send it to you." Dean announced while he followed behind him. "I just want it out of here Seth.
"I'll call you, we will make arrangements for me to come back." Seth said almost annoyed as he pushed the button for the elevator.
"No Seth I want it gone now" Dean was serious he figured the longer he kept Seth's clothes that it gave the younger man more of a reason to drag everything out. He wanted Seth out of his life he needed to cut all ties with him. The doors sprung open and Seth walked onto the elevator he fought back the tears he couldn't believe Dean was trying to get rid of him he needed him to forgive him, he needed him back.
"I'll call you" Seth called out never turning around he knew his voice was cracking as he spoke but he didn't care. He guessed the older man needed a little more time before he tried to reconcile.
"Fuck" Dean yelled out while he slammed the door tonight he was going to pack Seth's stuff and leave it outside the door in the foyer he wasn't going to let the little weasel back in again.
