Roman's eyes immetately fell on the new staff member the next morning as he walked into work. He could tell right away this was a cocky asshole that he would have to tread careful around. The guy walked towards him.
"Hi, I'm Seth Rollins. I'm the new night guard," he said.
"Roman Reigns. I'm one of the doctors," Roman said.
"Nice to meet you," Seth said although it was clear that he couldn't care less.
"Any trouble last night?" Roman asked.
"Not with the twins. I did have some trouble with a couple of the other patients," Seth answered.
"Who?" Roman asked.
"Dean and Taya," Seth answered.
"They don't normally cause any problems. I'll admit Dean can be a bit manic from time to time but he comes from a good place," Roman said.
"He was trying to sneak into Taya's room. God only knows what he was planning to do to her," Seth said.
"He wasn't planning on doing anything to her. He sees her as his little sister. He protects her," Roman said, feeling slighty angry.
"Whatever you say. Anyway, I locked him inside his room. Oh, and I put Taya in a straitjacket," Seth said casual.
"What?!" Roman basically screamed.
"She was trying to harm herself," Seth said.
Roman pushed past him and hurried to her room. He unlocked the door and threw it open. He looked at the poor girl in bed not able to move. Her face and her arms were bruised.
"Oh shit, I'm sorry, Taya," he said as he freed her from the jacket.
Seth walked into the room casual.
"See... she harmed herself," he said.
"This isn't from self harming," Roman sneered without even looking at Seth.
"Whatever you say. Anyway, I'm off," Seth said and walked away.
"Hey, hey, let me out!" Roman heard Dean's voice from across the hall while he was pounding on the door.
Roman walked over and unlocked the door. Dean pushed past him and went straight to Taya, pulling his arms around her and kissing her cheek.
"I'm here. It's okay now," he said.
Taya stood still. There was no emotion to trace in her face. No crying, no nothing. She just accepted what had happened to her during the night. Dean turned to look at Roman.
"I told you. You need to get her out of here," he said, almost as if he was blaming Roman for what had happened.
Roman didn't answer. He couldn't find any words. He just watched them walk down the hallway together. He went to his office and sat down. His mind was running wild. He knew he had to do something. He stayed in his office for hours. After lunch he went to find Dean. He knew he could trust him and he needed him as his alley.
"Hey Dean, can you please come to my office for a little talk?" He asked.
"Sure," Dean said and followed him.
Roman closed the door and they both sat down.
"What I'm about to say stays between the two of us. Do you understand?" Roman asked.
"Yes," Dean answered.
"You're right, Dean. I need to get her out of here, and I will, but I need your help," Roman said.
"Anything," Dean said.
"You already met the new night guard Seth," Roman said.
"That jerk," Dean said.
"Yes, that jerk. I need you to cause so much trouble around him tonight that he doesn't notice anything else around him," Roman said.
"Can I fight him?" Dean asked.
"Yes. Anything you can to make him focuse on you and you alone. Make him get you to your room so he doesn't see anything," Roman said.
"What will you do?" Dean asked.
"I will get her out of here. I can't tell you where I'll take her. You can't know anything more than what you already know," Roman said.
Dean thought about it for a couple of seconds and slowly nodded.
"I'm never gonna see her again, am I?" He asked. His eyes were sad.
"No, you're not," Roman answered.
"I better go say goodbye to her then," Dean said and stood up.
"You can't tell her anything about this. I'm gonna take her by surprise tonight. You gotta act normal around her all day. Can you do that?" Roman asked.
Dean shed a tear. Roman had never seen him cry before. He didn't even think that Dean were actually capable of crying.
"Yes," he said silently, then wiped his eyes and went out of the office.
Byron looked inside Roman's office as he was heading home.
"You're still here?" He asked.
"Yeah, I got some paperwork to finish. The twins were such a handful that I didn't get anything done on my 24 hours watch," Roman said, pretending to bury his face in a file.
"Okay, don't stay too long," Byron said.
"I won't," Roman said.
Byron left the building.
