It started years ago, the first day Roman met Seth Rollins at FCW. Roman was bi. He loved women but he couldn't deny that he loved fucking men too. There was something about Seth that drew him in from that first day. He was skilled, sexy, confident to the point of being cocky and Roman wanted him.
He watched Seth closely for a few weeks and saw a few other guys try to pick Seth up, but he wasn't having it. He rejected every man who approached him, but Roman wasn't too discouraged. He knew he was hot and had never had any trouble getting any guy or girl he had wanted, he just needed to think of a way to get him hooked. He decided to try and befriend Seth, play up his wrestling inexperience and compliment Seth's skills. It worked sort of, Seth helped him with his wrestling and Roman let him practice promos on him. They spent more time together, but he didn't make any sexual headway with Seth at all.
By the time they were in NXT they were good friends. Seth was a really good guy and he liked being friends with him, and Seth had a girlfriend anyway. So Roman tried to just be happy with having a friendship with Seth, but every time he saw Seth in the ring, stripped down to his little tights doing amazing flips, submission holds and grapples, he would get hard and have to take care of himself. When they actually fought against each other it was worse. He had to do everything in his power not to touch him too much, but it was hard. Those tiny tights that showed off his ass, all the exposed sweat-slicked skin, flexing muscles everywhere, that body pressed up hard against him in the corner of the ring. So many times he had to restrain himself from just grabbing Seth and bending him over in the ring and fucking him right there in front of everyone.
Still he tortured himself and stayed friends with Seth. By the time they debuted on the main roster with Dean, he was almost at his limit. Now he was with Seth all day, almost every day. They trained, traveled, ate, wrestled together and slept in the same room. Sharing a room with two other men, one that he was hot for was hard, he couldn't masturbate as often as he needed to and he was getting frustrated. At least he could concentrate better in the ring now that Seth didn't wrestle barely clothed anymore. The shirt, vest and baggy pants helped but Seth wore boxers in their hotel rooms and skinny jeans when they were out of the ring and it was all he could do to keep his eyes and hands off Seth's ass. Seth was also more physical with him in the ring, hugging and innocently touching him and it made him burn with need for him.
It got so bad he considered starting something with Kaitlyn just because she had two-toned hair like Seth, but he was worried Seth would figure out his secret.
Around the time they lost the tag team titles, he realized that he was in love with Seth. They were drinking a beer in the hotel room and all of a sudden Seth started to cry silently. He knew how hard Seth worked over the years, even before they met to become a success in the WWE and he knew losing the belts felt like a setback to Seth so he put his arm around Seth's shoulder and let him cry. It was the first time he had Seth in his arms that he didn't want to have sex with him. He just wanted to make him feel better and he told Seth how amazing he was and that he knew Seth would be a huge success in time. Seth smiled and thanked him and that was when he realized the extent of his feelings.
Things changed between them a little after that day. They were more open and they could talk to each other about everything and anything.
Shortly after Dean started hooking up with Renee, he mostly stayed in her room and Roman and Seth were alone together. One night he was awakened by Seth getting into bed with him, he thought it was strange but let it slide and went back to sleep. It started happening more often but they never talked about it and Roman never complained. It may not be sexual but at least he got to sleep in the same bed as Seth. One night after Seth went out drinking with Dean, he came back drunk, took off his jeans and t-shirt and lay down right in Romans arms and fell asleep. He didn't want to enjoy it, it was wrong because they were friends, but he was so happy in that moment. The soft skin he wanted to touch for so many years was pressed against his own. The sweet smelling soft hair was draped over his chest and he couldn't resist pulling him closer. Seth snuggled into his chest and put his arm around his waist and he felt sad. He had wanted this for so long, but it wasn't real. Seth didn't want him, he only saw him as a friend. He stayed awake the rest of the night holding Seth while his heart ached.
He was relieved when creative broke up the Shield. The company didn't want them traveling or rooming together anymore and he was glad. Being around Seth was too painful now, at least when he was alone he didn't have to pretend anymore. He still watched Seth. He was addicted to him and now it was second nature to him. They feuded for a while but it was difficult. Every time he saw Seth he had to fight off a smile. He was almost relived when he had to have surgery and miss some work. When he came back Seth was acting strange, almost erratic but they never talked anymore other than a phone call after his surgery. They met up in the hallway and Seth purposefully knocked his shoulder into Romans and sneered at him. He was confused at Seth's behavior. They had drifted apart but he hadn't done anything to him.
A few days later near midnight he got a text. He looked at the number and saw it was from Seth. When he looked at it he dropped the phone in shock. He picked it up again and stared at it for a long moment before he looked at the message. It was a selfie of Seth in an identical hotel bathroom to his, standing in front of a mirror completely, totally, mouth-wateringly naked. The message was simple 'Room 105'. He stared at the picture, sure that Seth had sent it to the wrong person, but he would enjoy it all the same. A few minutes later another text came in. 'What are you waiting for Ro?' There was no mistaking the message now. He got up and grabbed his room key and went to see the man he had wanted, needed for so many years now. They were barely friends anymore so he didn't have anything to lose and everything to gain.
