"Mmm," Seth moaned.
"Do you have to go?" Seth asked.
"Yes baby, we have school tomorrow and I want to look fresh for it." Roman said.
"I thought you were going to spend the night?" Seth asked.
"Mom said not tonight." Roman replied.
Seth pouted and Roman kissed those pouty lips.
"We'll have plenty of time for sleepovers this fall—since we're going to be roommates." Roman said.
"Okay," Seth said and then brought Roman down for another kiss.
Roman pulled back and smiled. "I'll see you in the morning. Goodnight."
Roman got off Seth and started heading for his door. Seth sat up and called for Roman.
"Hey Roman,"
"Yeah," Roman said and turned around
"I love you," Seth said and smirked.
"Stop making this so hard for me." Roman said and went back over to Seth for one last hot kiss.
"And I love you too," Roman said.
Roman left Seth's house and walked over to his.
"Hi mom, I'm home…just like you wanted me." Roman said.
"You'll have plenty of time to be with your boyfriend when you both are away at school."
"Yes mom," Roman said.
"Roman," his mother called out.
"Yes mom?" Roman turned around and answered her.
"We're spending some time in Samoa this summer." Trish said.
"How long?" Roman asked.
"About a three weeks," she replied.
"What?" Roman said.
"And then we're going to Tuscany at the end of July." She added.
"Why?" Roman asked.
"Because, you need to see the places you came from. You need to see what made you today." Trish said.
"But mom, why does it have to be so long?"
"Because, I won't be seeing you as often as I like and I would like to spend time with my son before he leaves for college." She said.
"Okay mom, I'll go." Roman said and hugged his mother.
"I'll even buy a souvenir for you to give to Seth."
Roman went over to Dean's house the next morning. His mother had an early meeting to attend and wasn't able to make Roman breakfast. Stephanie made pancakes and bacon for her children. Roman walked in the front door and into the kitchen. He gave a fist bump to Dean and then sat down next to him. Stephanie handed Roman a plate of food and Roman began to eat.
Roman realized that Seth wasn't around. He dropped his fork and asked where Seth is.
"Oh, he had an early swim practice." Stephanie said.
"Oh darn, I was hoping to see him this morning." Roman said.
"He'll be waiting for you in class. You had better hurry." Stephanie said.
Dean, Renee and Roman piled into Dean's car and let for school.
"The first meeting for the prom committee is today." Renee said.
Renee turned around and looked at Roman. "Are you going to ask Seth?"
"No, Renee. I'm just going to spend a romantic evening with Paige again." Roman replied with heavy sarcasm.
"If you want someone really whiny, just asked Sasha." Dean joked.
"Hey," Renee said.
"Be nice." She added
"Sorry babe," Dean said.
"How are you going to ask him?" Renee asked.
"I don't know yet. I want to get through Valentine's Day before we talk about prom."
"We're deciding where to have the after prom party today." Renee said.
"Dean's house." Roman joked.
"I will be with my boyfriend, in his room—alone." Roman added.
"Ha ha ha, very funny." Dean said.
"There he is. There's that little twink." Ryan said.
"Hey twinkie, your boyfriend isn't around here now is he?" Curtis said.
"Leave me alone," Seth said.
"Or, what?" Ryan asked.
"What's a little faggot like you going to do about it?" Ryan added.
The bell rang and Ryan shoved Seth into the set of lockers, before going to his class.
Roman sat at his desk, waiting for Seth to come.
After the warning bell rang, Roman noticed that Seth still wasn't there. He sent him a quick text and waited for him.
Fifteen minutes into the class and Seth still wasn't there. Roman asked to be excused to use the bathroom.
Roman left and walked down the hall to Seth's locker. He stopped when he saw Seth sitting up, hiding his face in his legs, against the lockers. Roman sighed and went over and sat next to him.
"Hi baby," Roman said.
Seth popped his head up from his knees and aside from the red puffy eyes, Roman noticed how banged up he was. Roman noticed a little bruise forming by his left eye. Roman grabbed Seth's chin and turned the bruise towards him.
"Oh my god," Roman exclaimed.
"Seth, who did this to you?" Roman asked.
"I accidently got pushed into a locker by a group of people going to class." Seth lied.
"Seth, who did this to you?" Roman asked again.
"Ro, please don't" Seth replied.
"Seth, someone is hurting you and I need to know who." Roman replied.
"Roman, no. No one is hurting me." Seth lied.
"You've always been a terrible liar." Roman said.
Roman stood up and held out his hands. Seth grabbed Roman's hands and Roman pulled him up.
"Let's get you to the nurse." Roman said.
Seth kissed Roman's cheek and then hugged him.
Roman picked up Seth's backpack and picked up his books. He walked with Seth down to the nurse's office.
"I'll come by after class and comes see you." Roman said, before kissing Seth on his forehead. Roman let go of Seth's hand and waited for him to go inside. Roman started to walk back to class, but went immediately back when.
"Were you hit by them or pushed into a locker?" Nurse Torrie asked.
"Pushed into a locker." Seth said.
"Seth, I'm going to tell the principal." Torrie said.
"No, I don't want any problems" Seth said.
"Seth, I need to report—"
"NO" Seth exclaimed.
Roman clenched his fists. He's angry. He's angry that someone is bullying his boyfriend, he's angry that someone is putting his hands on his boyfriend. Roman's mission was to find this person.
Later that night, Roman snuck over to Seth's room. After school, Seth went straight home and locked himself in his room. He come down for dinner, but went right back to his room. He ignored all the calls and texts from Roman. Seth just wanted to be left alone. He especially didn't want Roman to know that he was being bullied because he was in a relationship with him. He loves Roman and will do everything to keep him safe and vice versa. Roman loves Seth and it's bothering him that someone is harming his boyfriend.
Seth pulled the bed comforter up over his head. It was only 8pm and Seth just wanted this day to be over.
Roman climbed up Seth's balcony and started to pick the lock open. After Roman and Seth got together, Seth hid a stepladder in the bushes, and when Roman would come over at night, he would use that stepladder and climb up. Roman has amazing upper body and has no problem with the climbing.
Roman finally got the locked picked opened, and he saw Seth curled up n his bed. Roman shut the doors and then went over to join his love in bed.
Roman crawled under the blanket and wrapped his arms around Seth.
"Hi baby," Roman said.
Seth relaxed at the sound of Roman's voice. Seth turned around and hugged Roman. He buried his face in the crook of Roman's neck. Roman started to rub Seth's back to soothe him.
"I'm here baby," Roman said.
"I'll protect you," Roman added.
Seth pulled back and looked at Roman. Seth leaned in a kissed Roman on the lips. Seth climbed on top of Roman and pressed his hands easily into the pillow. Seth pulled back from the kiss and looked down at Roman.
"Seth, no sex. I want to know who's bullying you." Roman said.
"No sex huh?" Seth said.
"Your dick says otherwise." Seth added, completely ignoring the other part of Roman's sentence.
Seth started to roll his hips on Roman's crotch.
"Mmm, Seth. That feels great." Roman said.
"See Ro, I can be just as sexy and fun."
"I don't know what I'm going to do without you this June." Roman said.
Seth stopped and looked down at Roman. "What do you mean?"
"My mom and I are going to Samoa for three weeks." Roman said.
"I'm not going to get to see you for three whole weeks?" Seth questioned.
Roman interlocked his hands with Seth's and started gently swinging them.
"I'll be back for Independence day. We can spend the holiday together in the pool." Roman said.
Seth smiled and leaned down to kiss Roman.
"We better get some sleep." Seth said.
"Hey twinkie," Ryan said.
"I heard you went to the nurse's office to fix your boo-boo." Ryan added.
"Hey Ryan," Seth said.
"I heard that you bottomed out to Curtis last night." Seth said.
"It makes sense because you do listen to everything he says—you are his bitch." Seth said with a smirk.
Ryan felt his blood boil. He pushed Seth back into the lockers and griped hard on his shirt collar.
"I'm gonna fuck you up so hard you little faggot." Ryan said.
"I want to fuck up this little one too." Another voice said.
"I'll go first, and then you can have him last." Ryan said the person without even looking at them.
"I have a better idea." The voice said.
"What's that?" Ryan asked.
"You put my fucking boyfriend down and I won't shove you into that locker across the hall," Roman said.
Ryan quickly put Seth down and Seth went over and stood behind Roman.
"You ever put your hands on him again; you're going to wish that you never transferred to this school.
As other students were clapping for Roman, Roman turned around and brought Seth in for a hug.
"Are you okay, baby?" Roman asked.
"More than ever," Seth said and kissed Roman.
Roman was able to get through to Seth last night. Seth told him about the bullying and how it's been going on all year. He told Roman that's how he and Bayley really became friends. Seth has been a bit down since Bayley moved to Florida, but he's hoping to see her when the family goes to Disney World for spring break in April.
Roman and Seth came up with a plan and fortunately, it worked.
Roman picked up Seth's backpack and put it around Seth's shoulder. He then picked up Seth's textbooks and walked him to class.
"I'll see you at lunch, okay?" Roman said.
"Of course!" Seth exclaimed.
Seth pecked Roman on the lips, grabbed his books and went into his classroom.
Enjoy!
