Fight Night
Chapter 11: Sin City
"Come on babe, our cab's outside!" Deja shouted up the stairs at Roman. Thanks to Megan's persistence, they were able to get two business class seats together for their trip to Las Vegas. For Deja, it was mostly about business. For Roman, it was time to party.
"Sorry had to finish packing the last of my stuff." he said with an impish grin.
"How is it that I have twice as much stuff then you, yet I finished packing before you?" Deja asked, squinting at him.
"I don't know…" Roman shrugged, handing his bags to the cab driver. "I'm ready now." he said, climbing into the car after her.
"Oh that's right… I packed my bags ahead of time while you decided to wait till late last night to get started." Deja teased, poking at the simple in his cheek.
"So are you going to be able to spend any time with me while we're there? I know you've got a two day conference and all, but come on baby girl… Who goes to Vegas with their boo and doesn't get to spend time with them?" he pouted, taking her hand into his.
"Aww babe, of course I'm going to spend time with you. We've got a few hours tonight. Then we have Friday and Saturday night to have plenty of fun." Deja smiled. "And don't worry boo… I've got something special up my sleeve just for you." she smirked.
"Something tells me, I'm going to regret using the word boo." Roman chuckled.
"Oh hush, I think it's cute. And you are my boo, so deal...with...it." she giggled, bopping him on the nose with her finger. It was still dark outside as they headed to the airport but they were just as excited as they were sleepy.
"Did we have to leave so early?" Roman yawned.
"Unfortunately, this was the only flight that Megan could find that had our seats together. I'm fine with the departure time but I'm not so enthusiastic about the airline..." Deja yawned in return as she rested her head on his shoulder.
"Which airline are we…" Roman started but stopped as the cab driver pulled up to the drop off point. "Ah we're flying American Airlines… We can definitely expect a flight delay then." he chuckled as he tipped the cab driver. He took Deja's largest luggage bag and followed her up to the check in counter.
"Well now… Look who we have here." the airline agent stated, pointing his co-workers attention over to Deja and Roman. "It's the latest 'it' couple. You two kids are off to Vegas I see. Y'all jumping the broom this weekend?" he teased, chuckling afterwards when Deja gasped as her cheeks flushed.
"Nah...not just yet. I think she's gotta figure out if she wants to keep me first." Roman laughed, paying for their bags.
"Oh I'm sure she will. A big strong guy like you… She'll keep ya." the man nodded.
"Well we'll definitely see about that." Deja smiled up at Roman then turned back to face the older man.
"You kids have a wonderful time out there and try not to get into too much trouble. You're guy has a pretty big fight coming up next week and I'm sure he can't wait to knock that Ardmore guy senseless…"
"Damn straight!" Roman grinned, placing a hand on the small of Deja's back as they waved goodbye to the agents at the check in counter. After making it through all the security checkpoints, they finally reached their departure gate. Deja took a seat and watched Roman take some selfies with a few fans that were nearby. He was so humble and appreciative of all the kind words of encouragement that he received. Eventually he took a seat next to Deja, throwing an arm around her shoulders.
"So what's the game-plan baby girl? I know you're gonna be busy but is there anything fun you wanna do afterwards?"
"Honestly, I haven't really thought about it." Deja admitted sheepishly.
"Well think of something baby. All work and no play makes me a dull boy…" Roman grinned as it was finally time to board their flight.
"Oh so me working is going to make you dull?" she giggled, handing over her boarding pass.
"I'm just saying… I want some quality time in Sin City with my woman." he grinned, following her after turning in his boarding pass. Deja took the window seat and quickly stuffed her purse underneath the seat in front of her. Roman placed his bag into the overhead bin then plopped down next to her.
"The only thing missing is a nice cozy blanket." he whispered, wiggling his eyebrows as he placed a hand on her thigh. Deja rolled her eyes playfully and crossed her legs making him pout.
"Ease your storm big dawg…it's gonna be a long flight." Deja warned.
"But…" he contested.
"We are not joining the Mile High Club…" Deja huffed, cutting her eyes at Roman. He sighed, rolling his neck in annoyance after his plans were shot down. If he didn't have his headphones and neck pillow, this would've been one of the longest most irritable flights he'd ever been on. Deja smirked to herself knowing she had pissed Roman off, but everything was going according to plan. She knew at some point during their trip she'd give in to him, just not right now.
Nearly six hours later and two time zones behind, they had finally landed in Las Vegas. Roman stretched as he rose up from his seat to grab his bag from the overhead bin. He stood aside, allowing Deja to exit her seat and swiftly followed behind her. He sent a quick text to Dean to let the guys know they had made it then headed towards the baggage claim area. His headphones were still on when he noticed that Deja was talking to him.
"Did you say something baby girl?" he asked, pushing his headphones off.
"Oh so you were ignoring me?" Deja teased, poking him in the chest.
"Nah… I just forgot to take these off. Now what were you saying babe?" he blushed.
"I was asking if you wanted to go straight to the hotel or if you wanted to grab a bite to eat first?" she stated.
"The hotel sounds good to me and we can just get room service." Roman shrugged, lifting their luggage from the baggage carousel. It was still relatively early there but luckily Megan had arranged for the couple to have an early check-in.
"Room service does sound good to me…" Deja smiled. "But first we've gotta go get the car."
"Already got that covered baby girl. I booked us a ride last night before we went to bed." Roman grinned.
"Aww babe that was sweet of you, but you didn't have to. I would've…"
"Hey, I don't mind baby. Besides… I figured out what you've been up to." Roman chuckled as stepped onto the car rental shuttle bus.
"And just what have I been up to?" Deja inquired sarcastically.
"You've been trying to find little ways to pay me back for your necklace." he smirked. Deja's cheeks flushed as she knew she'd been caught. She folded her arms across her chest and purposely tried to avoid making eye contact with Roman. He nudged her playfully in an attempt to get her to look at him but she didn't budge.
"I cannot confirm or deny your accusation." she claimed, waving him off nonchalantly.
"You're not used to guys giving you nice things are you, Deja?" Roman questioned as he handed his reservation information to the car rental agent. "I mean… I'm not trying to be funny or anything, but I can tell you've always been a really independent woman, right?" Deja simply nodded in agreement with his statement.
"I...guess so." she shrugged. "Don't get me wrong, I have gotten some nice things over the years but never anything this beautiful or meaningful." she said, strumming at her necklace with her thumb.
"Well I wanted you to have it baby girl. To me it's a symbol of who you are and what you mean to me…" he paused, turning his attention back to the agent. He finished going over all the paperwork and signed the necessary documents before he and Deja were escorted outside to pick up their vehicle.
"As I was saying…" he continued. "You don't have to pay me back for anything baby. I've got you and I know you've got me." Deja simply smiled as Roman leaned down to steal a kiss from her lips. She giggled to herself almost feeling bad for denying him access to joining the Mile High Club earlier in the day.
"Is...that ours?" Deja pointed to the silver Mercedes Benz SUV that pulled up beside them.
"Yeah, I wanted to pay tribute to Shadow since she still hasn't been replaced yet." Roman explained as the agent passed him the keys.
"You're just full of surprises...aren't you?" Deja grinned.
"I try to keep you on your toes." he chuckled. "So where are we headed baby girl?"
"We're staying at the Bellagio." she replied, sending a quick text to let Kendra know that they had made it safely.
"Talk about surprises…" Roman commented as they drove off. Deja flashed him a cute smile before slipping her sunglasses on and looking out the window.
After breakfast and a quick nap, Roman and Deja had gone out to explore the city. Since she had a conference the next morning, they wanted to do some sightseeing together before Roman caught up with his crew.
"I'm really appreciating the warmer weather out here." Deja sighed happily as they walked down the Las Vegas strip holding hands.
"Oh yeah...this is a hell of a lot better." Roman agreed.
"So you're going out with the boys tonight, right?" she inquired.
"Yep. I'm meeting Ambrose and the twins over at the Venetian. Jimmy was harping about some restaurant called I Heart Burgers… Guess we're gonna eat there then head out for drinks and stuff. I really wish you could join us tonight baby girl."
"I wish I could too but I've gotta be sharp for my conference. No worries though… I'll be all yours Friday night." she gleamed.
"Mmm...you better be." Roman groaned, pulling Deja back against his chest. He kissed her neck as they stood at the corner patiently waiting for the traffic light to change.
They finally made it back to the Bellagio and headed up to their room with a few shopping bags in tow. Roman went straight for the bathroom while Deja made herself comfortable on the couch, flipping on the TV as she settled in. She reached for her carry on bag and pulled out her iPad to review a few of the applications that had been submitted to her law firm.
With Kendra out on maternity leave, Deja needed some backup at the office. She decided to give her big sister a call while her man was in the shower.
"Oh to what do I owe the pleasure of this phone call?" Kendra snickered, answering her phone.
"Well hello to you too, Keke…" Deja chuckled.
"How's Vegas and all that hedonistic sex you're probably having?" Kendra teased making her little sister choke on her water. She pulled her phone away from her mouth to stifle her laughter and listen out to make sure Deja recovered.
"I… We are not having hedonistic sex!" Deja shrieked. "Well...at least not yet. Anyway, the reason that I'm calling is…"
"Because you wanted me to check out the resumes of everyone that applied to work at the firm and fill in for me." Kendra said as she maneuvered into the kitchen while holding her son.
"Um...well yeah." Deja admitted.
"No worries baby sis, you just enjoy your conference and the bright lights of Sin City with your man. I've got this under control over here." Kendra replied.
"Well okay then. Guess I'll head down to the spa or something." Deja shrugged grateful that her big sister couldn't see the silly look on her face.
"You do that sis. We're about to take little man over to see his abuelos."
"I almost forgot that Dom was teaching you Spanish." Deja snickered as Roman wrapped his arms around her from behind.
"Yeah, only because his aunt loves to talk shit about me. So he wants me to know exactly what she's saying. But let me let you go. Love you Dee." Kendra laughed, watching her husband play with their son.
"Love you too Keeks. Talk to you later." Deja said before hanging up. She put her phone away and turned in Roman's arms to kiss him. His skin was warm and still slightly damp from his shower. He smiled down at her as he grabbed her ass giving it a tight squeeze.
"You sure you can't come out with us...even for a little bit?" he pouted.
"I wish I could baby, but I know me. It's Vegas and I'm here with my man, there's no way I'm going to act right much less be ready for my conference in the morning." she blushed, pushing some of his hair out of his face. "And please don't look at me like that."
Roman smirked, knowing that if his puppy dog eyes didn't get to her, his kisses sure would. He held his pouty face for as long as he could until Deja finally squirmed away from him. He was going to chase after her but his phone rang.
"It's your boys… You better hurry up." Deja giggled, waving Roman's phone at him.
"Alright, alright. Hey answer that and tell them I'll be down in a bit." Roman chuckled, heading back into the bathroom.
"Man...I'm trying to tell you fools that Roman ain't paying us no attention. Uce probably busy getting…"
"Hello…" Deja's voice rang out from the other end of the phone. Jimmy froze holding his phone up to his ear.
"Uh… Oh hey Fancy, what's up girl?" he chuckled nervously.
"Don't worry Jimmy, I haven't sank my claws into Roman just yet. He's almost ready and will see you guys in a few more minutes." Deja said teasingly. Oh how she wanted to see the look on Jimmy's face right now.
"Oh...okay then. Well we'll catch you later Fancy." Jimmy mumbled as his brother and Dean were both pointing and laughing at him now. "Man fuck y'all…" he huffed, walking away.
"Aww don't get mad cause Deja caught yo ass, Uce!" Jey shouted. He and Dean were practically laughing up a storm at this point.
Roman had finished getting dressed and finally slipped his shoes on. Deja gave him his phone and kissed him sweetly before she made her way over to the bed.
"Have fun babe, but not too much fun." she teased.
"Don't worry baby girl, I'm all yours." Roman smiled reassuringly. He kissed her hard, leaving her wanting more like always.
"I'm gonna get you for always kissing and leaving me like this…" Deja said, pointing at him.
"What? I was good this time. Last time I kissed you like that, my hand was in your panties." he grinned, sticking his tongue out at her. She rolled her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest.
"Go before I change my mind, sir…" she huffed, running her eyes over his body. God he was so fine. Those jeans, that black t-shirt and all that hair tucked into a perfect man bun. She wanted him to ravage her body but she knew she needed rest. Her struggle was all too real.
"Bye baby girl. Call me if you need me or anything at all." Roman smiled as he left their room. Deja exhaled and fell back onto the bed. A deep tissue massage and a glass of wine was going to help her wind down. As for Roman and his boys, their night was just getting started.
"I'm just… I'm tired of the bullshit, you know what I'm saying?" Dean said, slamming his shot glass down on the table.
"Yeah man, we hear ya." Roman agreed, taking a swig of his beer after finishing his shot.
"So the way I see it… Dean Ambrose is a free man and here we are in Las Vegas. Good ol' Sin City!" Dean shouted, startling a few people as they walked past their table.
"I'm still confused tho, Uce." Jimmy stated. "I mean...everything was fine then all of a sudden she didn't want to be in a relationship?"
"Yep, that's exactly what happened! I come home after finishing up our training with the big dawg over here and I walk in to see that Candy's got all her shit packed up waiting by the door. So I'm all… "What's going on babe?" And she's all… "Dean, I'm so over this. I never wanted things to get this serious." By this point, I'm fucking livid..." he paused to chug the rest of his drink.
"Can we get another round over here?" Jey asked, waving to get their waitress' attention. As she placed another set of beers on their table, Dean continued with his story.
"Like I said, at this point I was pissed off. So I walk over to Candace and ask her if I did something wrong and she proceeds to tell me that she got bored with me! So I'm like… "Oh well excuse me for trying to be a decent Goddamn boyfriend! Didn't mean to bore you." Then she gets all huffy and shit and tries to get the last word in, but you know what I told her Uce?" Dean said as he nudged Jimmy.
"Nah Uce, what'd you tell her ass?" Jimmy inquired as he, Jey and Roman listened intently.
"I told Candy… "Listen here babe, there's something you need to get straight. Dames don't dump Dean Ambrose. Dean Ambrose dumps dames. Now get your shit and get out." Of course she gasped and fake cried but I kindly sat her things outside and waited for the cab. I even took her key to my place." he bragged, tossing back another drink. The guys were silent as Roman and Jey exchanged looks and noticed Jimmy giving Dean the side eye.
"Well...here's to rotten ex-girlfriends that we'll hopefully never see again." Roman chuckled, holding his drink up for a toast.
"Amen to that brotha!" Dean chimed in, clinking his beer bottle with his buddies. After two more rounds of shots, the guys were out and about walking the Vegas strip. They diligently made their way past various groups of women that were trying to flirt them. Even in his mildly drunken state, Roman knew he had a good woman back in his room. Jimmy was on the phone with his wife, Naomi, while Jey was managing to keep pace with Roman. He wanted to call his wife too, but he knew if he woke her or the kids up she'd be ready to kick his butt.
"Fellas… I think I'm gonna call it one. I wanna see baby girl off to her conference in the morning." Roman said as they approached the Bellagio. He fist bumped his boys and bid them goodnight as he headed up the walkway past the dancing fountains.
"Try not to do anything stupid!" Jey shouted as he and the guys continued walking.
"Yeah, yeah… Try not to lose Ambrose. You know he's on the prowl." Roman fired back, waving at at his cousin.
Roman stumbled into their hotel suite, doing his best to keep quiet and closed the door. Deja was sleeping soundly underneath the covers as the TV provided him just enough light to see exactly where he was going. She looked so peaceful but Roman just couldn't help himself. He eased onto the bed and gently mounted her delicate frame, making sure to balance out his weight so he wouldn't crush her. Deja started to stir as she felt the weight of the big man on top of her.
"Mmm… Hey babe. Did you have fun?" she mumbled, looking up at him sleepily.
"Sure did." Roman nodded enthusiastically. "But I sooo didn't mean to wake you baby girl." he slurred.
"Are you… Are you drunk?" she giggled, waiting for his reply.
"A wee bit." Roman chuckled, making a little spacing gesture with his index finger and thumb. Deja shifted underneath him to get comfortable once again.
"Well how about you take those clothes off and hop on in bed with me, babe?" she yawned slightly.
"Ok… Will you help me take them off?" he pouted, scooting back off of the bed to stand up. He just looked so pathetic and cute after kicking off his shoes. How could she have possibly said no to his sweet yet tipsy face?
"Sure…" she agreed, peeling the covers back to hop out of bed and help Roman with his clothes.
He may have been mildly inebriated but he certainly didn't miss the sexy little silk turquoise teddy that Deja was wearing. He studied her features, letting his eyes wander down to her collarbones as she lifted his shirt and slid it off. She gave him a coy smile as she worked on getting his belt loose then paused, feeling him push the spaghetti straps of the negligee off her shoulders.
"Almost done." she whispered, tilting her head back to give Roman access to her neck. He kissed and nipped his way up and down her soft skin, pushing at the silk fabric to get it down below her breasts. Deja gasped softly after feeling him suck one of her hardened pebbles between his teeth. She struggled to push at his pants while Roman continued to drag his tongue over her nipple.
"Baby…" she panted as he slipped a hand between her thighs to cup her mound after her night gown crashed to the floor. He massaged her clit roughly as his tongue continued to lap her nipple. Deja struggled for a brief moment but finally managed to undo his belt and get his pants down. She shoved his boxers down and began to stroke his semi-erected cock. Roman growled against her breast as he started to thrust in her hand.
"I want you…" he groaned in the crease of her neck. Deja gasped, feeling Roman's fingers dip into her warmth. It never took long with him, but her body was ready and willing. "You're so wet baby girl." he whispered, kissing her sloppily. She nipped and sucked on his bottom lip in return as he hoisted her up. Deja's legs coiled around Roman's waist as he gripped her cheeks and slowly slid her down on his shaft.
"Oh...shit." she hissed, locking her arms around his neck as he continued to bounce her. With each thrust, Roman took a step eventually leading them over to the large window overlooking the famous Dancing Fountains of the Bellagio. He pressed her back against the window and lowered her just enough so that one of her legs was touching the ground. Deja scratched and clawed at Roman's biceps as he pounded her against the glass.
"Dammit baby girl…" Roman groaned, palming Deja's ass cheek with a firm squeeze. He reveled at the sound of her pants and moans as his thrusts became uncoordinated and the bright lights of the city glimmered over their bodies.
"Yes! Yes! Oh... fuck yes!" Deja cried out as her body slowly started to buckle. Roman lifted her up again, this time carrying her over to the bed. He carefully lowered her to mattress below, making sure he was still buried deep inside her warmth. Their eyes locked as she drug her nails down his back. Roman smirked, ducking his head down to kiss her passionately. Deja could feel her orgasm stirring in her lower abdomen as her walls clenched around Roman's dick.
He planted his hand firmly on the bed to brace himself as he was nearing his own undoing. Each thrust weakened him as he fought his urge to give in. He wasn't going to stop until his woman was more than satisfied.
"Shit." Roman grunted, slowing his pace down a bit. Deja raised her hips to meet his thrust, causing him to go deeper. Her eyes squeezed shut and she cried out in ecstasy feeling her juices coat his manhood. She smiled up at him and cupped his face barely keeping her eyes open. Roman turned his head to kiss the palm of Deja's hand and lowered himself to cover her body with his completely.
"Cum for me baby…" she whispered, wrapping a leg around him. Her soft yet sultry voice lead him over the edge. His spine tingled from each desperate thrust as he filled Deja's core. They smiled at each other while attempting to catch their breath and Deja couldn't help but laugh after Roman made a silly face.
"What's so funny, sexy?" he huffed, rolling their bodies so that she was now straddling him.
"I realized that I'm always going to be late after a night with you." she teased, tapping him on the nose with her finger.
"Well… I tried to be good, but yo fine ass had to wear that sexy little negligee." Roman grinned.
"Mmhmm… And yo fine ass couldn't resist taking it off of me." she retorted, pecking him on the lips afterward. Roman cradled her as she climbed off to lay beside him.
"Ah what can I say? My woman is smoking hot…" he yawned, pulling the covers up over their bodies.
"I'm gonna need a ton of coffee in the next few hours if I'm gonna survive this conference." Deja giggled.
"I got you covered sexy. I'll have your Starbucks on deck, now close those pretty eyes and go to sleep...or do you need Daddy to put it down on you again?" Roman chuckled.
"I'm good for right big man, but one of these days I'm gonna put it down on you." she said, kissing his chest as she settled in against him.
"Mmm I'll be looking forward to that day baby girl, believe that." he smiled, smacking at one of her bare cheeks giving it a firm squeeze after.
"You just love squeezing my ass, don't you?" Deja laughed as Roman simply nodded his head in agreement. She shook her head and smiled, laying back down on his chest. Moments later the only noise that filled their room came from the TV as they were both sound asleep.
Hey you guys! Sorry for the delay, school and work had me all crossed up. I'm still at a busy point with both but I'm at least back to writing again lol. Plus I missed you all. :) Anyway, enough of my blabbering. I thank you all so much for reading and I hope that you enjoyed.
*A Roman and Coco update is FINALLY in the works for Heaven Beside You and I've got some ideas stirring for SamRo as well.*
Till next time (which I hope isn't too long),
XoXo
