Next Morning*

Roman POV

Despite the fact that Anna drank her bodyweight in alcohol I can't believe I thought the morning would be better. So of course here I am holding her hair as she throws up into the toilet. Damn it, if she wasn't human then this wouldn't even be a problem.

"Roman, I am not a drinker. I just wanted to have some fun," says Anna in a low voice, sounding ever so innocent. She doesn't need to justify herself, I know Liza would tell me that's the first time Anna's ever gotten drunk at all. I wouldn't be surprised if she'd never touched alcohol before this either.

"It's ok, I understand. It's not like you do this every day and we are on a vacation," I assure her, nothing being able to detract me from the beauty that's in front of me. Her sleeves ride up and I swear I see some sort of a scar. "Sweetheart, what's that?" I ask her, trying to get a better look at it.

"Nothing!" exclaims Anna, quickly covering it up. She gets up and sighs to herself as she goes over to wash her face. "I can't believe some people do this all the time," she says to herself, making me chuckle. I know she's hiding something but I'm not going to call her out on it. Especially since I'm hiding something as big, if not bigger. I go back over into our room and notice her phone ringing.

"Babe, your phone!" I shout, picking it up. She comes over to me, using a towel to wipe her face and takes the phone, holding it up to her ear.

"Hello?" says Anna into the phone. "Oh hi. Yeah I am enjoying the time off," she says, looking at me and I send her a wink, making her grin. "Yep, Mmhmm. Oh," she then says, sounding kind of sad. "No of course I understand. Yes don't worry," she says and then finally hangs up. "Roman I gotta go home. The hospital has an overload of patients and they need another doctor," she says, my face falling.

"But we've only been here one day," I complain and she nods her head.

"I know," she says, looking sad herself. "I promise I will make it up to you," she says, wrapping her arms around my neck and placing a kiss on my lips.

"Can't they get anyone else?" I ask her, desperate for her to stay so that I can spend a lot more time with her.

"No, and I doubt Ben would even answer the phone. The guy is such a weasel," she goes on to say, shaking her head. "I am really sorry," she says and then starts moving around the room as she starts to pack. I start to help her and after a few minutes there's a knock on the door.

"They called you too?" says Liza, coming into the room. "I guess they're even more busy than I thought," she says as I realize she's leaving too.

"How's Dean taking it?" I ask her. Dean isn't great when it comes to hiding his emotions. Especially when those emotions include anger and sadness or even jealousy. Actually I haven't seen jealousy yet but I'm sure I will in due course with Liza sticking around.

"Not so good," answers Liza, looking upset herself. "He kind of just growled and then left so…yeah," she says and I nod my head. I leave the girls to it and tell them I'm going to see what everyone wants to do for breakfast when in actual fact I'm going to pummel my brother. I find Dean outside, sitting on the porch steps smoking a cigarette.

"You're seriously doing this?" I ask him, letting him know that I completely disapprove. I sit down next to him and say, "You shouldn't have done that".

"I know," says Dean with a sigh, not even needing to know what I'm asking about. "It's just, when we finally get a fuck chance at trying us out she has to leave! Just like every other mother fuck in my life," he says, putting the cigarette back up to his lips.

"You're acting like she's leaving forever," I comment, his actions are just too childish. Hopefully Liza will have better luck trying to figure him out than me. "Once you're both back over there you can resume wherever you left off from," I explain to him.

"Yeah fucking right, she'll probably go back and then tell me to piss off because she doesn't think we're a good idea," says Dean with a huff. I have never seen someone range though the emotions like Dean does sometimes.

"Now we both know that's your insecurities because Liza isn't that kind of a person, if she didn't want you then I'm sure she would have told you to fuck by now," I say to him, trying to get him to see some sense. "And why don't you actually tell her what's wrong rather than walking off like a bloody teenager," I advise him.

"I don't think she'd get it," states Dean, doing everything in his power to try and avoid stuff like that.

"Did you ever think that her own insecurities were why she was resisting you for so long?" I question aloud, putting it out there. He finally turns his head to look at me.

"What do you know Roman?" asks Dean, reading me easily. After all, we've known each other for years. I know when he's hiding something and vice versa.

"Nothing I can tell you," I reply, looking away from him. "Let's just say she had her reasons for waiting all this time till she finally agreed to give you a chance. Just like you have your reasons to think that she's going to leave you. But if you guys don't be open and honest with each other how long do you really think you'll last?" I go on to question him. "Liza is a great girl. So stop being such a dick and go talk to her because right now she looks as sad as you do," I instruct him before getting up and leaving from there.

Liza POV

Anna's finishing off her packing and I'm all done with mine. I make sure to go through everything one last time because I really don't want to leave anything behind. Maybe I should leave something so I have an excuse to see Dean again. With the way he left I don't think I'll be seeing him anytime soon. At the same time, I don't know if I should be flattered that he's that upset I'm leaving. Still, he could act like a human being and not stomp off angrily. I turn around to leave the bathroom when I bump into Mister Hot Rod himself. Instead of saying anything I move past him going back into my room.

"Liza," Dean says my name but I'm just mad at him. I'm mad at the way he handled things and I don't know if he can say anything to actually make me feel differently.

"What? You actually have something to say to me?" I ask, looking up at him as I zip my bags shut. "You know Dean, this is exactly why I was hesitating so much at trying us and at the first point of something making you unhappy you proved me right," I say, standing there with my hands on my hips.

"I'm sorry," he says in an apologetic tone and that's all it takes for my anger to disappear which scares me. I didn't even realize he has so much control over me till this moment. It makes me wonder if this is healthy. "I was just thinking about myself alright?" he then says.

"You really think that's going to work?" I ask him, shaking my head at him. He needs some authority in his life because right now he thinks he can do whatever he wants and get away with it. "I can read anyone like an open book and if you think by coming up with some bitch like that is going to work then you're terribly mistaken. If you can't be honest with me right now then there's no point going forward in our relationship," I explain to him.

"Fine," says Dean, nodding his head and it appears I may have struck a nerve. "I just…I don't want you to leave me alright? All my life people I've known just up and leave. The only people that haven't are Roman and Seth. For the first time I care a lot about the girl standing in front of me and I don't want her to leave me. Is that too much to ask for?!" he questions almost angrily as I stand there surprised.

"Dean, I wouldn't be leaving if I didn't have to," I say to him, walking closer over to him. "In case it was hard for you to believe I have been enjoying myself here. With you," I admit, giving him a small smile. "I understand people leave your life but I'm not going forever? You're spending the rest of your weekend here and then you're coming back. And we can pick up right where we left off".

Dean POV

I stand there in surprise, looking at her suspiciously. Does she really mean what she's saying? I want to believe her but I just have this bad feeling inside of me and it's not good.

"You mean that? You're not going to go back and then forget everything that happened here?" I question and notice her face soften a little more. She walks over to me and takes my hand in hers.

"I know our relationship has been kind of slow because of me but I don't want to forget the day I've spent here," says Liza, genuineness emanating from her eyes. "I've enjoyed myself a lot more with you than I thought and I was kind of hoping we'd go on more dates on mine and your days off," she goes on to say, not even realizing that she's made me the happiest man alive right now.

"Me too," I say in a low voice and see her chuckle.

"We both have pasts," starts Liza as I feel curious about what Roman said. "You have your childhood and everything and I have some baggage too. I want to tell you everything Dean but only when I'm more comfortable with it. But thank you for telling me how you feel, it means a lot," she says as I make a mental note to thank Roman later. Instead of saying anything I move forward and wrap my arms around her. She's not going anywhere and she's finally accepted us as a couple, what more could I want?

Anna POV

I started work with Liza and as the day goes on we end up drifting apart. I normally love chatting to her in between patients but things have been really hectic. They seriously need to hire more staff and fast otherwise people's lives will be at risk here. I wonder why all of a sudden there's so many patients though.

"Anna, hey!" says Randy, coming over to me as I roll my eyes in a sigh. Why can't he just leave me alone? "Would you like some green tea?" he asks, somehow knowing its my favorite. I shake my head and turn the other way, writing some stuff down on one of my patient's charts. "Come on, it's good," he goes on to say.

"No thank you," I say, keeping my eyes on the chart as I see his feet in front of me once again.

"Why so hostile? And where were you yesterday, I had a gunshot victim that could have used your help," says Randy, a smirk playing on his face. If he can play games then so can I.

"Oh, I was off on a little vacation with my boyfriend," I say with a smile, an automatic grin replacing it as I think about Roman. I think he is the sweetest guy in the world.

"Boyfriend?" asks Randy, his teeth gritting together.

"Anna, hey!" says Jenny, probably the only nurse that gets along with me so well. "How was the one day off? Even though you guys were supposed to be off for a whole week," she says.

"Great, we had a lot of fun," I tell her, focusing on her and hoping Randy would get lost for now.

"I should think so with your Samoan Thor," teases Jenny, making me blush.

"I see you've been talking to Liza," I say, shaking my head. She'll probably spread it round like wildfire. In her defense I've never been drunk before in my life. So she's bound to milk this one for all it's worth.

"Yeah, but I don't disagree with you. That boyfriend of yours looks like a god, it's nice to see you happy. Oh, by the way you have a patient in bed 18 that's demanding attention," she then lets me know and I nod my head and walk off. That felt like if good. All this time Randy would bother me, especially since I didn't have anyone in my life. But now I do. Maybe he'll leave me alone for good now.

"So just a lot of rest and a lot of water," I instruct one of my patients, walking out of his room with a smile on my face. I look at my watch and realize it's nearly mine and Liza's break time. I think I'll get us something to eat. "Hey Jenny, tell Liza I've gone to get us some food," I then say and head out the front of the hospital. What I wasn't expecting was to be grabbed and by Randy and dragged to the side of the building. "What are you doing?" I ask, trying to free my hands from him,

"What I should have done a long time ago," says Randy, a dark look in his eyes which doesn't look too good. "I know you want me Anna, that's why you've got yourself a boyfriend. To make me jealous, but get this in your head. You're mine," he states with a sadistic smirk.

"No, I'm not," I say, shaking my head with determination.

"You will be when I'm through with you," says Randy, pushing me hard up against the wall and forcing his lips on mine. I struggle with him but his hands are on too tight on my wrists. Tears build up in my eyes as I feel like I can't do anything. I think about what I can do and then stomp on his foot. This moves him off of me and I slap him straight across the face.

"How dare you?" I say, shaking my head.

"You bitch!" he says, a hand on his cheek. I feel my stomach drop when he against gets close to me. "You think you can do that and get away with it? I know you liked it you shit!" he nearly shouts, grabbing a hold of my arms tightly.

"Y-you're hurting m-me," I say but he only just lets out a laugh. The next thing I know, someone pats his shoulder and punches his face. I feel relief as I see my best friend stood there and Randy on the floor, holding his jaw.

"I told you to stay away from her you bitch," says Liza as I quickly go over to her and hide behind her. I knew Randy was a lot of things but to force himself on me? That's just even worse. "Fuck with her again and I'll rearrange your face," she threatens him before putting her arms around me and taking me away from there. She takes me to her car and makes me sit in the backseat. She bends down and gives me a sympathetic look.

"T-thank you," I say through my tears, wiping my face furiously.

"That's what I'm here for remember? Your hired bodyguard when Samoan Thor isn't here," jokes Liza, successful in making me chuckle.

"Everyone ok?" asks Dean, running over to us, out of breath as well.

"I think so," says Liza, looking at me. So Dean knows. I bet either she or Seth told him. Just as long as Roman doesn't know I'm fine. He'll just kick up a fuss and that's the last thing I need.

"Where is the fucker?" Ask Dean and Liza tells him. Dean goes off before either of us can stop. I don't think we wanted to stop him either.

Liza POV

"The bitch's gone," says Dean, coming back. When I asked Jenny where Anna was I thought it was sweet. It's a good thing I came to see if I was able to manage to sneak off with her. When I saw her car parked I realized something was wrong. I immediately called Dean and he said he'd be there as soon as he could. I started to walk around the car park when I heard noises and that's when I saw Randy with a death grip on her. "Is she ok?" he then asks, looking down at Anna.

"I'm fine Dean, thanks," says Anna, staring at the floor.

"Ok, well I'm gonna go back to work and you go with Dean, alright?" I ask Anna and she gives me a look as if she's about to argue. "No, you've been through enough. I'll just say you weren't feeling well. There's no way you can safely take care of patients in this situation because you'll be putting them at risk. Now go home and take some rest, ok?" I say and she nods her head, not arguing with me. I get up and she settled herself in better and I close the door. "You can take my car and pick me up later when Roman or Seth are with her," I tell Dean, turning to face him.

"I can't believe I missed him," says Dean shaking his head. "I could have-" I cut him off.

"Gone to town on his ass?" I ask with a laugh. "Look, I know Anna alright? And after what happened with her as a kid she really dislikes violence. So if you're planning on beating this guy, don't. Why do you think she hasn't told Roman yet? Well when she's sober ,she's already spilled her guts when she was drunk," I then go on to say.

"I'll talk it over with them, are you sure you wanna stay?" Dean then asks me. I don't think he wants me here by myself but I think I've proven that I can take care of myself.

"Yeah, besides if he turns up I'll make sure the other side of his face mirrors the one I just hit," I comment, making him laugh. Dean moves forward and kisses my lips.

"Oh, you're gonna be a feisty one in bed," comments Dean with a wink before moving to get in the car. I walk back towards the hospital with a big smile on my face and a red blush on my cheeks. Damn him for having such an effect on me.
