Roman's lips moved to her neck, nipping it gently. She moaned.

"You were always so good at that", she whispered with a smile.

He smiled against her neck.

"It could be like this always. You and me.", he whispered, sliding his hand up her side, where he knew her tattoo was.

She met his eyes. Would he still feel this way after she told him the truth?

"Roman", she said softly.

"No. Don't. I won't push you for more, I just want to be with you. We don't even have to talk", he said.

She smiled and nodded, turning to sit on his lap. She gasped at the view and he smiled, kissing her shoulder.

"Its beautiful isn't it", he whispered.

She nodded. He wrapped his arms around her as they enjoyed the view.


Peyton walked into the kitchen and stopped when she heard Bayley and Hunter laughing. She smiled. They both looked at her.

"Sorry, I just came for another drink", she said, grabbing her drink before making her way out again.

Peyton bit her lip, that gave her an idea. She quickly went to find Dean, who was enjoying a beer. She pulled on his arm and he chuckled.

"Alright babe, I'm coming", he said.

She kissed him.

"I have the best idea", she said.

He raised a brow.

"Lets go to the beach. All of us, the house is big enough and I'm sure Hunter has his own, he could invite whoever he wants", she said excited.

"You do realize Roman and Hunter can't even be in the same room together. You want us all to go to the beach", Dean said.

She nodded.

"Its romantic and beautiful there. Come on", Peyton begged.

Dean smirked.

"I'll talk to Roman, but it probably won't be till next weekend. We have a few things to deal with before we can pack up and leave", Dean said.

Peyton nodded and kissed him.

"Thank you", she sang before making her way back to Naomi and Ember.


As everyone went to bed, Lynn snuck into the one she was sharing with Hunter. It didn't feel right, not after spending a wonderful afternoon with Roman. She grabbed a piece of paper and wrote him a message.

"Staying with Seth. He has an extra bed"- Lynn

Grabbing her bag, she made her way to her best friend's room. Knocking just in case he had company. He opened the door and smiled.

"Come on in", he said, opening the door wider.

She walked in and sat on the bed. He didn't have an extra bed, but she didn't have to worry about him getting grabby if they shared. She could smell alcohol on him. He brushed his hand through his tangled hair.

"Seth, drinking doesn't solve anything", she said.

"But it helps me not to feel", he chuckled and sat beside her.

"He still loves you, he's just hurt", she said.

"That's why he was fucking her right", he said sarcastically.

"Go take a shower, brush your teeth or your ass is sleeping on the floor", she said, laying back on his bed.

He laughed.

"I seem to remember this being my room", he said.

"Sure, whatever", she shrugged.

He grabbed an extra change of clothes and a towel.

"The left side of the bed is mine. Your ass better remember that or so help me I am rolling you off of my bed", he said, before walking out.

Hearing her laugh as he made his way down the hall. He walked in and locked it. The curtain opened and revealed Liam. Seth swallowed, his eyes running down his body. Toned body, abs Seth remembers licking till he got to his prize. Strong, muscular arms that held him while they slept.

He bit his lips before Liam grabbed his towel and wrapped it around his waist.

"Don't you knock", Liam said harshly as he got out of the stall.

"I didn't know anyone was in here, and the door was unlocked.", Seth said.

Seth set his stuff on the counter.

"I'll just wait outside", Seth mumbled.

"Have you been drinking?", Liam asked.

Seth sighed.

"We've all been drinking Li", Seth replied.

"I smell more than just beer on you. You aren't the hard liquor type", Liam said, taking ahold of his shoulders.

Seth closed his eyes at the touch.

"I just had a few", Seth whispered.

Liam met his eyes. Holding up his hand.

"How many fingers am I holding up?", he asked.

Seth squinted, licking his lips.

"On, two?", Seth said.

"I think I should help you. Just let me get dressed", Liam said.

"That's not a good idea, Li and we both know why", Seth swallowed.

Liam placed his hand under Seth's chin and lifted his head.

"And if you slip and fall? What then?", he asked.

Seth wrapped his hand around Liam's wrist. Liam couldn't take it anymore, kissing Seth.

"Fuck it", he mumbled against Seth's lips.

His hands, along with Seth's undressed him. Seth removed his towel and pulled him close. Liam moaned.

"Last chance", Seth whispered.

Liam took his hand and pulled him into the shower stall. Seth's hands running over Liam's body, claiming back what was theirs to begin with. They turned the shower on and stood underneath it.

"Turn around Liam", Seth whispered.

It had been too long since he last had him. Liam smirked and shook his head no.

"I haven't forgiven you yet", he replied.

Seth kissed down his chest, Liam brushed Seth's hair back and buried his fingers in it.

"You look so damn good on your knees", Liam smirked.

Liam moaned loudly when Seth's mouth wrapped around him.


Leslie had gone to go look for her sister, but the room was empty. She made her way back downstairs, walking into the kitchen she found Hunter making out with a girl she didn't know.

She tip toed back out and upstairs. Debating if she should tell her sister about what she just witnessed. Sasha laughed and passed her.

"Looks like she lost another man. She's just not meant to be queen", Sasha said.

"And neither were you, so enjoy it while you still can, and Roman", Leslie said.

She smirked as she passed Sasha.


Lynn pulled out her laptop and opened a blank page. Thinking about Hunter, her brain froze. Nothing came to her. She bit her lip and thought of Roman. The words coming to her and her fingers moved along the keys as she typed.

"And its then that she realized, it wasn't about one man, but the other. The first. The only."

She finished the chapter just as Seth walked in, showered and a huge smile on his face.

"You seem in a better mood. I told you a shower would help", she said.

"Yeah, it did", he chuckled.

He sat beside her and read what she wrote. Handing him her laptop. He read the first couple of chapters and chuckled.

"What?", she asked.

"This is about Roman. I mean, the guy, the way you describe him. Everything is Roman", Seth said.

She looked at the screen.

"No its not. Its about Hunter", she said.

"So Hunter likes coconut flavored chocolate?", Seth asked.

She opened her mouth, but nothing came out.

"You might have been picturing Hunter at one point, but this is Roman", he said, handing her back the laptop.

She looked at the screen. The places she wrote were Hunter, but when she imagined the face of the main male character, Seth was right. It was Roman.

"He also has a copy of your books. He reads them when he misses you.", Seth said.

"They were about him.", she said.

"We all figured as much", he replied.

"I've had writers block for the last year. I wrote the first three books while I was with Roman. My publishers wanted a nice enough gap between the books.", she said.

Seth nodded.

"Till your muse left, or more, you let him go", Seth said.

"You know why", she whispered.

"You need to tell him Lynn, before more time passes. He'll be mad at first, but he will forgive you. He loves you that much", Seth said.

"I don't want to talk about it, Seth. Okay", she said.

He wrapped his arm around her and nodded.

"Well, when you are ready to talk, I'm a phone call away.", he said.

She laid her head on his chest and he turned off the light.


Dean had found him in the library still. He didn't want to leave, not wanting the day to end. Lynn would be going back with Hunter tomorrow and he wasn't ready.

"So um, Peyton wants to go to the beach. I told her I would pass it by you", Dean said.

Roman smiled.

"You don't have to ask me to go. Just make sure your sub knows what to do", Roman said.

"Oh no, she wants all of us to go. Like old times, except now Naomi and Ember will be coming. Hunter and whoever he brings", Dean shrugged.

"I can barely take seeing them together now. You want me to go to the beach house with him too", Roman said.

Dean laughed.

"You know he has his own house. I'll tell Pey to ask Lynn to stay with us because she missed her. Catch up, girl time", Dean shrugged.

"Not this weekend. Book it for next", Roman said.

Dean nodded and stood, squeezing his friend's shoulder.

"Try to get some sleep. Ruby region needs you healthy", Dean said.

Roman nodded.
