"Their baby? So, that baby isn't even yours but yet you're here defending it?" Randy shook his head.
"That's not the fucking point Randy! They are my boyfriends, and...that's their baby. You really think I would sit back and do nothing after what you and Sandow attempted to do?"
"Actually, that is point, Seth. You had nothing to do with the creation of that baby. That's something between them and nothing to do with you"
Seth just stayed quiet, knowing that Randy had a point there. Dean and Roman were having a baby. They were to be parents together. Where did that leave him? He had no idea. Dean and Roman now had something to connect and bond over even more; while he had nothing. He was just the other boyfriend. Oh, what he would give to go back in time and protect his baby from Randy. His daughter would be alive right now. Seth wiped the tears away and sniffled.
"You said it right now. That baby has nothing to do with me. So why did you and Sandow plan that?"
"Because you're involved with them, and because I know you. You would have love for that baby to some degree"
Seth shook his head in disbelief. "You know, after you caused our daughter's death, I thought you would atleast change and feel some compassion and feel guilty for hitting me on that certain day. That's obviously not the case since you tried to get rid of another baby!" The anger could clearly be heard in voice, even though his tone was low.
"Those assholes don't deserve happiness" Randy snarled.
"Don't call them that!" Seth slammed his hands on the table. He glanced around the cafe, seeing as other people stared at him. He didn't give a fuck at the moment. "You leave them alone. What did they ever do to you?"
"They took you away from me" Randy replied simply.
"That's bullshit and you know it. You were the one that kicked me out and pushed me away. You don't care if you have me or not. You just want to see me suffer. Your drug is to see me miserable" Seth looked at him in disgust. "Stay away from them Randy, I'm warning you"
"I'll leave them alone" Randy nodded. "As long as you leave them alone as well"
"What the fuck are you trying to say?" Seth cocked his head to the side.
"Seth..." Randy groaned. "Don't you see it? I'm only trying to help you here. All you are to those two is miscellanous"
"That's not true." Seth retorted. He laid back on his chair and watched the way Randy's eyebrows raised. He let out a deep breath and looked away, just staring at the while wall, not knowng what else to say. He couldn't think anymore. "I'm leaving" he stood up and grabbed his jacket, slipping it on.
"Seth, you can't leave by yourself. It's late"
"Like you actually care" Seth rolled his eyes and walked away, exiting the cafe. Since he didn't have his car with him, he began to walk. He stopped when someone grabbed his elbow "Leave me alone Randy."
"I'm not letting you walk by yourself. It's too dangerous"
"Stop with the act Randy. I'm sick of it. The only thing that has me in danger right now is you. Get away from me" Rollins snatched his elbow away. He groaned in frustration when Randy grabbed his hand and guided him through the streets. They ended up at the hotel room where Randy was staying.
Once they entered the room, Randy attacked Seth's lips with his own, bruising them almost. Seth felt Randy grab him by the shoulder and throw him on the bed. Randy hovered over him and kissed all over his neck. Seth bit his lip and tilted his head. It wasn't until he regained all his senses that he realized what was happening. He used all his strenght to push Randy off of him before sprinting out of the room. He turned ever corner in hopes of losing Randy in case he was chasing after him.
Seth reached into the pocket of his jacket and pulled out the house key that Dean and Roman gave him on one ocassion. He opened up the door and stepped inside the quiet house. He didn't want to disturb Roman or Dean, since they were obviously sleeping in the bedroom. Seth just layed on the couch and lured himself to sleep.
The next morning, Dean woke up and a frown immediately formed on his face when he realized that only Roman was laying in bed with him. He pecked Roman's cheek softly before getting up and putting on his boxer briefs. He stepped out of the bedroom and his nostrils instantly inhaled the smell of pancakes, coming from the kitchen. Ambrose rubbed his stomach as he entered the kitchen. A gasp escaped his mouth when he saw Seth in front of the stove. He sprinted towards him and hugged him from behind. "Seth, you're here! You came back!" he said in disbelief. He pulled away and waited until Seth turned around, so he could kiss him. Seth moved out of the way though and handed him the phone. "What?" he looked at him confused.
"You need to call work and tell them you can't make it, atleast for the rest of the week. I already called"
Dean frowned and took the phone out of Seth's hand. He backed away as soon as Seth turned his back on him again. Why was he acting so cold towards him? Did he do something wrong? He continued to wonder as he sadly dialed the school number.
Seth placed three plates on the kitchen table and placed two pancakes on each. He took the orange juice pitcher out of the fridge and placed it on the center of the table, next to the syrup. He grabbed some knives, forkes, and cups as well. By the time Dean entered the kitchen again, everything was finished. "Breakfast is ready" Seth pointed to the table.
Dean bit his lip and walked over to sit down. He picked up his fork and poked at his pancakes. "Why did you run out of the hospital yesterday?" he asked softly.
"Yeah, why did you?" Seth heard a deep voice and turned to see Roman standing there with his arms crossed.
"Can we please just eat breakfast first? I can explain everything afterwards" Roman and Seth walked over and sat down. They all ate in silence and it was rather uncomfortable. The air felt so cold and the atmosphere was almost unbearable.
"You should umm, call work and take the rest of the week off. We already did it ourselves" Seth spoke to Roman without looking at him.
"I'll go do that right now" Roman dropped his fork and dragged his chair back so he could stand. He was clearly pissed off and Seth couldn't blame him.
After cleaning up the plates and the kitchen table, Seth walked into the living room where Dean and Roman were already waiting for him. Seth decided to sit on the couch across from them so they could be face to face.
"I'm really sorry I ran out like that" Seth started. "Everything was happening so fast, I was feeling overwhelmed" Seth watched the way Dean's face fell at his words. He wanted to comfort his lover with everything he had but he needed to explain everything now.
"I know you guys want an explanation as to why that doctor lied to us. It took me a while but I finally remembered him. He was the guy that Randy cheated on me with" Seth squirmed in his seat when he saw Roman stand up and began to pace the room.
"I guess he remembered me when he saw me and he called Randy, telling him what was going on. They both came up with the idea of lying and saying it was the appendix. During the surgery, Sandow was going to do something so your baby wouldn't survive.. They wanted it dead."
Roman stopped pacing and Dean gasped, holding onto his stomach securely. "How do you know this?"
"I talked to Randy"
"You went to go see Randy?" Roman accused.
"No, I was in a cafe and he just showed up there. I accused him and he didn't even try to deny all my suspicions." There was a pause for a momet, until Seth spoke again. "It's all my fault" his voice cracked, the tears ready to fall.
"What do you mean by that?" Dean asked. He got up and walked over to the other couch, sitting right down next to Seth.
"I'm the reason why he wanted to kill your baby. To see me hurting again. If it wasn't for that nurse, your baby wouldn't be here right now" Seth turned to look Dean in the eye. His eyes traveled down to his stomach.
Dean bit his lip. "You keep talking as if this baby isn't yours too" he whispered sadly.
"That's because it's not!" Seth snapped and Dean flinched a bit. "I had nothing to do with the fact that you're now carrying a baby. I did nothing, it was you two. That baby will have your DNA, not mine. I will be nothing to that baby" Dean's bottom lip quivered as if he was about to cry.
"You are so wrong about that" Roman shook his head and laughed in pure disbelief.
"Oh really?" Seth stood up and crossed his arms.
"Yes!" Dean threw his hands up in frustration. "It doesn't matter what DNA the baby has Seth! That shouldn't determine who can be in a family and who gets to raise a child. I don't know how many times we have to tell you that this is an equal relationship. You really think that when the nurse told us I was pregnant, I only thought about Roman and myself? No, I thought about you too Seth! I thought about all three of us being parents to this child. This baby would have three parents. I get what you're saying though." Dean wiped the tears away. You just don't want the responsibility. You don't want to be a father"
"Oh don't you dare say that! I do want to be a father. I was going to be a father!" Seth began to sob and collapsed back on the couch. Roman and Dean just looked at him confused. Roman walked over there and got on his knees in front of Seth. He placed a hand on his thigh but Seth smacked it away."Back when I was living in Iowa, while I was dating Randy...I got pregnant. You guys remember when the news broke out of the supposed first male pregnancy?"
"Yeah the guy was all over the news but they never showed his face" Roman could already see what Seth was about to say next.
"Well...that was me" Seth confessed. He looked at his lovers faces and they were in utter shock, with their eyes so wide, they looked they were about to pop out. "According to doctors, I was the first man that ever went through that so they had no idea what to recommend me. I didn't know how to handle a pregnancy either so it was hard. Randy was a tool like always and didn't help at all. He made things worse. I did the best I could to eat healthy and do all the obvious stuff but it was all for nothing. One night, I was about 5 and half months pregnant and Randy came home drunk and he started arguing with me." Seth cried again. This time, when Roman placed a hand on his thigh, he placed his own hand over it. While Dean soothed his back. "He ended up hitting m-me. I stumbled on my f-feet and I hit my stomach on the edge of the c-couch."
"I started bleeding and Randy just left me there. I crawled to the phone and called 911. After the paramedics got there, I blacked out. When I woke up, I as in the hospital and I was looking for my baby...my daughter was nowhere and I began to panick. One of the nurse came and calmed me down. She t-told me that m-my baby didn't make it." Rollins hung his head low and cried harder. He could feel Roman and Dean wrapping their arms around him tightly.
"I'm so sorry baby" Dean felt so horrible for the things he said now. It ached his heart to know how much his boyfriend suffered in the past. No one deserved that much pain, especially someone so innocent like Seth. He blinked his eyes rapidly as he felt them water.
"Shh, it's okay baby" Roman whispered and stroked his two-toned hair. He was trying so hard not to explode in anger. He wanted to find Randy and kill him for putting his baby through ultimate hell.
"I would give anything to have my daughter with me right now. If only I could have protected her better..."
"No Seth, don't you dare blame yourself for someone elses mistakes. That guy is an asshole and it's only a matter of time until he pays for what he's done"
"I'm sorry I snapped at you guys and...again I'm sorry for leaving the hospital. I guess when the nurse was congratulating you, besides the Sandow thing, I felt kind of left out in the relationship. Believe me..." Seth turned to Dean. "I want to be a father again. I've been wanting to ever since, you know..." he trailed off. "I guess this is another opportunity for me to be a dad" he smiled and sniffled while he placed a hand on Dean's stomach. To hear Dean say that he wanted him to be a father to the baby as well, it sent shivers down his spine. They wanted him equally, just like they always did. He was beginning to actually realize how crazy he was being for doubting his place in the relationship. "I promise that I'm going to stop being a brat. I just...love you guys so much and.-"
"And we love you too Seth" Dean interrupted. This was the first time that he told Seth that he loved him and he meant it. "We're going to be equal fathers to this baby" he reached over and grabbed Roman's hand, placing it over his and Seth's on his stomach.
"I love you guys" Roman smiled. He stood up moved to sit in between Seth and Dean. He placed an arm around them and pulled them close to his body. He felt like the luckiest guy in the world to have those two as his boyfriends. They were so innocent and sweet; and they were all his
"Love you too." Dean and Seth repsonded in unison. They all shared a laugh and leaned in to engaged in an unusual threesome kiss that lasted for what felt like a lifetime. They all felt the electricity inside of them and they knew this is where they were supposed to be. Together as one.
Roman smiled into the kiss and pulled away laughing. Dean and Seth looked at him with raised eyebrows.
"What so funny?" Dean asked.
"Nothing, it's just..I'm in a relationship with two men who can both conceive babies. We're gonna have to start using condoms"
