Lanay fiddled with Dean's fingers unsure how to answer the question. She still had feelings for him why else would she allow him in her house. She was still physically attracted to him, how could you not. Yet, the thought of a committed relationship scared the hell out of her. What if he did the same thing to her that he did to Renee? What made her any different? Any more special? If he could cheat on Renee whom he was with for years why would he not cheat her? She was a nobody, a means to sexual gratification, someone that he could visit on the road and fuck on his command. Here she was giving him that power again and allowing him in her home.
Dean on the other hand felt like he could hear her thoughts and concerns about their relationship.
"I won't do you like I did Renee."
"Oh please, you'll meet a hotter piece of ass and want to 'control' her as well and then where does that leave me? I also have my kids to think about. I don't allow anyone around them and I'll be damned if you meet them and disappear. So no, Dean, I don't love you anymore." Lanay sighed as she get off him. "I have too much to lose. My children safety to think about, dating you sounds great in my mind, being able to love you freely sounds like an awesome thought until I become realistic. You showed me so much, taught me so much about how I can love again but it's not you."
Dean nodded looking taken aback by her words. "Do you think I will allow anyone to harm you or your children?"
"You don't even know them but I live a simple life. I'm not going to act like I'm the richest person in the world but I live freely, I enjoy my secretive life where no one knows me, a friendless life. It's what I'm used to and it works for me. If I was to allow you in my life, I lose that. I can't lose me and I can't have my children or my life under scrutiny in the name of love. I love myself and them too much to put them in your world. I'm sorry."
Lanay sat up and the effects of the alcohol was getting to her but she knew it had to be said. "I appreciate you, I will always have love for you, and yes… I might even love you in some form but not the love you need. Go work it out with Renee, you'll get back to normal and forget all about me."
Dean didn't know what to say at the moment. He wasn't expecting her to have all that reasoning behind why they shouldn't be together and he heard her hesitation but he didn't come here to leave empty handed. He had to get her to see his side of his story as well. "Don't you think I did try to forget about you and go back to my life? This is why I'm here, I obviously failed. I tried to go back to my life with Renee but was flooded with thoughts of you and how much I wanted to hang out and have that sense of normalcy. You give it to me, not Renee, not the other fans, just you."
Dean rubbed his hand through his hair pushing it away from his unsure if he should even try anymore. Lanay's mind looked pretty made up and he couldn't even blame her in it. He knew she wanted to go out but what fun would that be if everyone would investigate her life or take candid pictures. He understood her hesitation but also knew she did love him even if she didn't want to admit it. "Your one stipulation was honesty and here I am, being honesty. You're not doing the same."
Lanay stood up yelling at him. "Fine, yes. I still love you Dean. Are you happy? However love isn't all you need in the world. This isn't some sort of romantic movie like you think? It's real life. I can't give up my real life for you!"
Dean stood up as well grabbing her arms but not roughly. "I'm not asking nor telling you to give up your life for me. I'm asking you to allow me in it!"
"You come with baggage!"
"And you don't?! I may bring in some unwanted internet bullshit but since when did you care about what people think?"
"Since those same people will dig deep into my life just cause of you! My family didn't sign up for this."
"So this is it? You love me but don't want to be with me?"
"I want to be with you Jon! There! I'm saying it but…"
"But what? What are you scared of?"
"Us. This. I'm going to fuck you over, I'm going to fuck us up. Let me go."
"Niece, if I walk this door I'm not coming back."
"I know."
"Are you going to let me walk out that door?" Dean walked towards the door and put his hand on the knob.
Lanay couldn't help but admire his walk, it was what first attracted her to him. It was so confident, it made her think thoughts she knew she shouldn't have at this moment but the alcohol in addition to his presence was her hindrance.
"Aren't you going to give me a movie kiss?" Lanay asked biting her lip.
Dean chuckled as she moved closer to him. "Do you deserve one?"
"Don't you normally give some long goodbye kiss before the epilogue where we run into each other by chance both with other people then you look back and remember the good times? You feel the pang in your heart but remember the good times and why you're not together in the first place."
"You put a lot of thought into this."
"I've seen a lot of movies."
"Fine. Come closer." Dean smiled when she did what he asked and wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her to his body. "I fucking love you."
With that his lips descended on hers slowly as the kiss grew and he slipped his small tongue into her mouth exploring her. Lanay feeling the effects of his tongue in her mouth gave in to the kiss finding her body responding to his like always and it seemed to go on forever. Could she really let him go?
"I fucking hate you." Lanay pulled away from her as her eyes appeared to glaze over
"You don't."
"I don't."
"Will you always be honest with me?"
"It's one thing I won't ever stop."
"What if my kids don't like you?"
"I told you Jonathan loves the kids."
"You're going to have to meet my family one day."
"As long as you can tolerate mine."
"I need dick on demand."
"As long as there is a plane, dick will be there."
"I need my space."
"I'm not even at home 350 days out the year."
"You're going to make sure your fans don't find me."
"I will fight them off myself, besides, WWE has this all in place. No one will know more than I'm in love with a woman."
"You gotta let me sleep with Roman just once."
"You're pushing it."
Lanay laughed as she kissed his jaw. "I'm scared of this."
"Don't be. I don't have the best experience but I kind of know what not to do."
"You won't go looking for someone else?"
"Woman, you're enough for 5 women."
"Are you calling me fat?"
"Shut up."
"You shut up, don't tell me to shut up."
"God, I fucking love you."
"Same. I fucking love you too."
Lanay kissed him again until he pressed her up against the door. "Not the door, neighbors can hear. Believe me I know."
"How about we give them a show then?"
"I like the way you think."
"You're going to like a lot more in a few minutes."
"No foreplay?'
"No foreplay?"
"My man."
End.
A/N: Blame Raw for the ending changing… I'm sorry Dean was looking too fucking sexy tonight and blame Yolanda for sending me gifs and more pictures . This story was fun to write and there may be an epilogue but I can't confirm that right now. I'm going to miss Dean and Lanay however they were fun together.
