Chapter 4
After their wrestling session, Seth announced that they should hit the shower and then go to the supermarket because there was nothing acceptable in the house for him to eat.
Roman and Dean had left Seth in the appliance aisle where he was relentlessly questioning an unfortunate supermarket employee on the best blender to buy to make his daily protein shakes. Roman was walking alongside Dean as he pushed the cart up to the freezer and opened the door. He took out a family size pack of bacon along with some sausages and placed them in the cart. Roman decided to grab some frozen fruit from the freezer next to the meat filled one. They had made it to the vegetable section when Seth had finally caught up with them. He was holding a small box that he placed in side of the cart.
" Good help is so hard to find." He said as he shook his head.
Roman just smiled to himself and shook his head. That poor employee had probably been put through the ringer by Seth.
" No, Dean not that."
Seth took the wrapped head of lettuce that Dean was holding and placed it back down on the pile. He then took a couple steps further down and took up another head of lettuce.
Dean looked puzzled. " What's the difference?"
" This one's organic." Seth smiled as he placed it in the cart.
Dean checked the price display above where Seth had taken the organic lettuce from. " I'm not paying six dollars for a head of lettuce."
Seth ignored him and pushed the cart merrily along. " Your kidneys will thank me." Seth stopped the cart. " Oooo, kale!" Seth picked up two huge bunches. " I'mma make us some kale smoothies when we get back." Dean muttered an expletive under his breath and rolled his eyes.
Eventually the men found themselves in line for the checkout with two persons ahead of them. Dean and Roman were chatting while Seth was going through the cart. Seth turned the black snapback that he had on backwards so that he could see into the cart clearly without any obstruction.
" What's this?" He picked up the package of sausage by his fingertips and looked at it disgusted. He threw it into an abandoned empty cart nearby.
" Seth! What are you doing?" Dean stared at him increduously, while Seth simply shrugged his shoulders and continued to rummage through the shopping cart.
" It has too much fat, not enough protein." Seth picked up the package of bacon. " This has to go as well." He tossed it into the empty cart where it landed with a wet smack on top of the sausages.
" Hell no! You put that bacon back." Dean placed his hands on his hips and stared down Seth.
However Seth was unimpressed. He pushed the cart up as there was only one person in front of them to be served now. " Nope. They will just clog your arteries."
" Well maybe I want my arteries clogged."
Seth kept his eyes forward.
Dean marched around behind Seth and went to the abandoned cart and picked up the package of bacon and threw it into the cart. It landed on top of the box that contained the blender.
" Ew!" Seth picked up the bacon package and dropped it on the floor. " Don't get that nasty shit all over my stuff."
Roman could see that Dean was becoming quite heated. He placed a hand on Dean's shoulder to calm him but Dean shrugged it off.
Dean snatched up the package from off the floor. " Fuck your blender. I want to eat some bacon damn it."
The customer at the register and the cashier were staring at them and Roman glanced around the store and noticed that the other patrons were looking in their direction as well. This was becoming quite embarrassing.
" Look Seth, why don't we just get the bacon? You don't have to eat it, if you don't want to." Roman tried to reason.
" No." Seth started putting the groceries up on the conveyor belt. " That shit is disgusting. I don't know why anyone would want to eat it."
" You know what? Fuck you Seth." Dean spat out. Roman had never heard Dean sound so bitter before. Even Seth looked a bit taken back.
Dean tossed the bacon into the abandoned cart where it landed on top of the sausages once more. " I can't stand your fucking pretenious ass."
Seth's mouth fell open in shock as he watched Dean storming out of the store. He turned around slowly and saw that everyone in the vicinity was staring at him with disapproval including Roman. What did he do that was so wrong? Bacon isn't healthy. Everyone knows that.
His eyes remained cast downwards on the conveyor belt as the cashier rang up the items. He noticed Roman walking away to stand by the exit. It was safe to say that he had blown any intention that he had of getting with him. But he was still reeling from what Dean had said to him. He had never cursed him before. He had never seen him so angry. Seth didn't like it one bit that it was directed towards him.
" Is that all Sir?" The cashier's voice breaking through his thoughts.
" Uh … " Seth looked around. Everyone else had gone back to minding their own business. " Just a minute."
He went to the other cart and took up the bacon package and sighed. He went back to the cashier and dropped it on the belt. " Yeah, that's all."
The ride back to the beach house was uncomfortable to say the least. Roman drove while Dean sat in the passenger seat and Seth in the back. Dean had his arms folded across his chest and kept his eyes fixed on his window. Roman tried starting a conversation to ease the tension a couple of times but it fell flat as neither of them acknowledged him.
As soon as he had parked the car and turned off the engine, Dean was out of the car.
" I'm going for a walk." He said as he closed the car door.
Seth opened his own door and went up to him. Roman lifted the clip for the trunk and got out of the SUV.
" Dean," Seth placed his hand on Dean's shoulder. But Dean shook his shoulder briskly for Seth to remove his hand.
" Leave me alone." That was all Dean said as he started to walk off down the beach.
Seth stared after him for a bit and then ran up the stairs into the beach house. It took Roman a while to process what had just happened. It was only the second day and already there was fighting between Seth and Dean. Since they were both stubborn asses, who knew how long this would go on.
Roman sighed as he eyed the trunk full of groceries. Now he was the only one left to unpack the car and put the contentious groceries away.
Eventually all of the bags made it inside of the kitchen and Roman had put away most of the groceries. He really hoped that whatever this was between Seth and Dean blew over quickly before it ruined the entire vacation. Even though they said that they weren't a couple they surely did fight like one, Roman mused as he unpacked the last bag. He quite surprised when he pulled out the package of bacon that had started the whole thing. As he placed it in the refrigerator he had a feeling that this fight wouldn't make it through the night.
Half an hour later Roman was sprawled out on the couch watching television in the living room when Seth walked in. He had taken off his shirt and snapback and was just in his faded skinny jeans. Well at first he thought they were skinny jeans, now looking at them again he figured that they could also be jeggings. Whatever they were, Seth's ass looked really nice in them.
However, Seth's face held a rather melancholy expression.
" What's the matter?" Roman asked, sitting up on the couch.
Seth just sighed as if everything was hopeless.
Roman got up and put his arm around Seth's bare back, pulling him in gently. Seth slipped an arm easily around Roman's neck as the bigger man caressed his back.
" Dean's mad at me."
Roman stopped caressing Seth, his fingers stopping right at the top of the curve of Seth's ass. " Well you did shame him for wanting to eat bacon."
Seth combed his fingers through Roman's pony tail. His pretty pink lips pouting. Very nice looking lips actually, Roman thought as his hand drifted further down Seth's derriere until it cupped the plumpness of a cheek. Mentally he screamed at himself to focus on getting Seth and Dean back on speaking terms and not on the sudden attraction he had developed towards Seth.
Seth locked both arms around Roman's neck and laid his head on the broad shoulder. " But bacon's bad for you." His voice muffled by Roman's t-shirt.
" But you still bought it." Roman felt Seth tensing a bit at that revelation.
Eventually he relaxed again as he held on to Roman. " Dean wanted it."
Roman softly rubbed Seth's back as things became a little clearer in his mind. " He means a lot to you, doesn't he?"
Seth sighed as he pulled away from Roman a bit but keep his fingers locked behind his neck. " I guess. I don't like it when he's mad at me."
" Maybe you should go and tell him that. Tell him how you feel about him." Roman pushed a little.
Seth groaned as he stepped out of Roman's embrace completely. " Why did you have to go and make it sound like some sappy love story?"
" Maybe it is." Roman smiled and crossed his arms.
However Seth shook his head. " No it's not like that. Dean's like a brother to me."
" But yet, you two fight like boyfriends."
Much to his surprise, Seth laughed out loud as he walked towards the open sliding door. " I guess it seems like that." He shot a wistful look over his shoulder as he stepped outside. " I much rather be your boyfriend." He gaved the stunned man a flirtatious wink before descending the stairs to the beach.
The sea spries stung Dean's face as he leaned up against the rocks as he watched the waves roll in. He didn't mean to cause a scene at the store. He had just wanted some damn bacon. Although if he was being honest with himself, it had been the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back. He had been sexually frustrated the entire day from Seth waking him to Roman dry humping him. He had wanted Roman badly and he had only turned him down because of Seth. He was trying to be a good friend to him. He felt that having that pack of bacon was the least that Seth could do for him. Of course Seth didn't know about the incident with Roman but still, it was just one little thing.
" Hi."
Dean didn't have to turn around. He knew who that voice belonged to.
" Dean." That whiny plea was already there in his voice.
" I'm sorry."
Dean exhaled sharply. He knew him well enough to know by the sound of his voice if he was telling the truth. He was. But still, could he forgive him so easily?
Seth appeared in front of his face. His own face like a sad puppy. " I'm sorry." He repeated again. His black and blond curls blowing easily in the wind as Dean just looked at him without saying anything.
Seth took a step closer to him. " Don't be mad at me."
He picked up Dean's right arm and placed it around his naked waist. Dean didn't move it but he didn't tighten his grip on Seth either. Seth sighed and raked his fingers gently through the short curls that were dancing along Dean's hairline. " You can have your heart attack inducing grease meat. I won't judge you anymore."
Dean couldn't help but to smile at that. Leave it to Seth to be completely obnoxious but endearing at the same time. Dean pulled him in close and placed his free arm around Seth's shoulders as Seth's arms went around his waist.
" You're a huge pain in the ass you know that?" Dean pressed a kiss against Seth's cheek.
" Whatever." Seth dismissed in as he used his tongue to wet his lips before he captured Dean's bottom lip with his mouth.
As he expected Dean kissed him back with the same sort of neediness that he loved to feel. Kissing Dean always felt good. He wondered if Roman would feel just as good or even better. He lost his train of thought momentarily when Dean started sucking on his tongue. He whimpered as Dean's hand moved down south and palmed his ass through his jeans. He figured that he needed to wear this pair more often. It had gotten both Roman and Dean to grope his ass today.
Seth whimpered as he trailed kisses down the front of Dean's throat. " I want you."
" Is that why you apologized?" Dean teased as Seth brought his head back up and he kissed him again. " So that you could get some dick?"
There was no mistaking the blush that crossed Seth's cheeks at the question. " You did promise that you would take care of me." He didn't allow Dean a chance to answer as he took him in a deep kiss. Dean's hands travelling up and down his body. Fingertips pressing and stroking his skin. He could feel Dean's hardness pressed up against his thigh.
Dean finally managed to pull away from Seth's addictive lips. " I said that I would tonight. Not now in front of everyone on the beach."
Seth frowned. " I hate when you make me wait."
After dinner the three men were out on the patio enjoying a glass of wine as the waves softly rolled in underneath the star studded night sky.
Roman slowly sipped on his as he wondered how he was going to get a few minutes alone with Dean. However the problem answered itself when Seth stood up and declared that he was turning in for the night. He noticed a look passing between Seth and Dean and he wondered what it was all about as Seth disappeared into the house.
On the other hand, here was his opportunity to spend some alone time with Dean. He shifted closer to the man who was leaned over and resting his forearms on the railing. His hand went over Dean's left hand covering it with his own. He was pleasantly surprised when Dean didn't pull away.
" So I take it that you and Seth made up?"
" Yeah." Dean took a sip of his wine as he kept his eyes focused on the waves trying to ignore the way how his heart was starting to race.
" I guess it's hard to stay mad at him." Roman deftly and smoothly, removed the wine glass from Dean's hand placed it on the railing where it balanced perfectly. He gently tugged on that hand and Dean got the hint and stood up straight and faced him.
That sweet wine taste on his tongue was nearly lost by how quickly his mouth got wet as Roman pressed his body against his own. Hip to hip. Chest to chest.
" Yeah it's nearly impossible to." Roman looked at him a bit quizzically as he placed one hand at the back of Dean's head. " To, um, stay mad... at... uh... Seth." Damn it. He was stuttering and Roman hadn't done much yet.
Roman's brown eyes were already at half mast and fixed on Dean's lips. His index finger propping up Dean's chin.
The auburn haired man swallowed hard and then closed his eyes. He wanted this so badly. He was already hard from the anticipation. Maybe he should turn him down for Seth's sake but damn it, he didn't want to deny himself anymore.
Roman's lips were warm yet firm as they pressed against Dean's. It was a firm press followed by tiny pecking sound. Dean's body went on auto pilot as his arms encircled Roman's neck and he kissed him back. He could feel that fluttering in his chest as they exchanged soft kisses tinged with wine on the patio. He parted his lips when Roman's tongue swiped against the seam. He inhaled sharply as the hot, wet instrument made its way inside his mouth. His nerves were on fire as his fingers gripped Roman's shirt tightly as their tongues rolled over and stroked one another. He angled his head a bit so that Roman's tongue could go a bit deeper in his mouth. Now that he had experienced kissing Roman, Dean knew that it couldn't be a one time thing. He would want this and more with him. He would also want it often.
" Damn." That was all Roman said as he finally broke his lips away from Dean. " The last two times I tried I thought that you didn't want to kiss me." Dean opened his eyes. " But I stand corrected."
A small smile crossed Dean's lips as Roman took him in another kiss.
After a ten minute long kissing session where Roman thoroughly explored Dean's mouth and Dean returned the favour to him, the auburn haired man finally made his way inside the bedroom that he and Seth shared.
The light wasn't on but he could see that Seth was lying down in Dean's bed with a thin sheet over his waist. He sat up when Dean walked in. " It's about time you got here."
" You've been day dreaming about this dick?" Dean asked as he pulled his shirt over his head and then started to unbutton his pants.
" Stop talking and hurry up." Seth threw back the sheet and revealed that he was quite naked underneath with a hard cock that was standing at attention.
Dean peeled out his boxers in a hurry. There was no better sight in his eyes than a naked, horny Seth on his bed.
He crawled across the bed on all fours and then lowered himself on top of Seth so that both of their hard dicks were pressed together eliciting some sweet friction. Seth wrapped his strong legs around Dean's waist to keep them even closer together. As Dean lowered his lips to Seth's he hoped that the younger man couldn't taste Roman's kiss on them.
