Thank you so much guys for the reviews. You are awesome. So, here's chapter 7. Hope you guys are not disappointed :)
- CHAPTER SEVEN –
Roman woke up early in the morning. He went to the bathroom and washed his face before heading to the kitchen and cook something for breakfast. He was looking inside the fridge and had decided that an omelet sounds a pretty good breakfast and bacons. So, he cook them. His mind were recalling what happen last night. It turns good but still hard to believe. It's very rare for a human to do what Dean did last night. Mostly might freak out and run but Dean stayed. Plus, of all humans scent, he can't smell Dean's scent. This what makes Roman more confused. He can smell the vampires scent and others but why can't he smell Dean? Even Seth was interested on Dean because Dean is one hell of a mystery to the both of them. Maybe Seth's right. Even humans can be mysterious like them. He just shrugged his thought and continued to whatever he was thinking as he heard footsteps behind him. He can tell who it was already.
"Good morning Roman." He said as he sat on a chair.
"Morning too Seth." He said without turning his head to him. "Got a good sleep?"
"You bet! After being accepted whole by our human friend. A complete mystery he is." He snickered. "Or a little bit crazy though." He joked as Roman laughed with mirth.
"Yeah! Turns out we underestimated his thoughts, right?"
"True because it's very unusual for a human to be so accepting." Seth said. "Now, hurry up with that food. I'm fucking starving."
Roman rolled his eyes at how childish Seth was acting.
"Don't worry, it won't kill you to wait for a minute." He countered.
Seth rolled his eyes and sighed. Until, his mood change not because of what Roman said but because he felt something. Something that is terrifyingly powerful that sent shivers to his spine. It was dark and strong but not threatening. He never felt something like this for centuries. Roman, was now preparing the food that he cooked and place it on the table neatly. He looked at Seth who was now projecting a slight fear and he start to worry.
"Hey Seth. You okay" he asked in worry.
"Roman! You feel that?" He looked at Roman with wide eyes.
"Feel what?"
He rolled his eyes. "Use your senses."
"Fine, grumpy pants!" he growled.
He start using his sensing and suddenly, he felt something what Seth felt.
"Fuck! It was damn strong!" he cursed.
"You're clearly pointing the obvious. I've never felt this kind of power before. It was terrifyingly strong but it wasn't threatening unless used." Seth said as he crossed his arms.
Roman pursed his lips at this. How the hell he didn't notice it? Was he that distracted for recalling last night's incident? But he shook his head and looked at Seth. What's the meaning of this? Why was this sudden another presence? Is it because from last night? Did another creatures seen him attacking and killing the vampires? Roman was now overthinking that what if Dean will get involved? Knowing that he's just a human. Mysterious but still a human. Dean, on the other hand, just woke up. He looked at his phone and realized that it's already 5:30 in the morning. He groaned and tried to sleep a couple of minutes. But he jolted up when he sense his own powers surrounding his damn fucking room.
Fuck!
He mumbled a cursed under his breath as he immediately conceal his powers. He sighed a relief and sat down on his bed while palming his face for how stupid he was. He forget to mask himself after he fixed Seth's car. That was very risky even on his part because someone might caught his scent and look for him. He paled and looked around to find out that no one was around in his room. Even he conceal his powers and his scent, he could still feel the faint of his powers. What if someone found him here? What if Roman and Seth had sense it? How can he forget? What if someone is already looking for me? What if he knows that he lives with the humans? Shaking his head trying to calm himself and thought something positive.
"Well, I'm still here. So maybe no one has sense it? Even him." He mumbled and relaxed.
He laid down on his bed, pulling the covers and just stop thinking and get another couple of minutes of sleep. He deserves that after being stressed for a second though. As he was about to close his eyes, his door was destroyed by a loud kick and he couldn't think properly because he was still tired and just recently stopped panicking for a while. He rubbed his eyes.
"Dean!" he heard voices shouting his name.
"What the fuck - Roman and Seth?" he looked at them confused and somewhat alarmed as Seth immediately approached him as Roman was now looking around in his room like he was crazy.
"You okay man? Are you hurt?" Seth asked.
Dean was caught off guard because he didn't expect this to happen and he still didn't know what they are doing because his mind is in complete puzzle. Roman approached them as well as he sat next to Dean.
"I'm fine. What the fuck was that about you guys barging into my room and destroyed my door."
"That was my fault. We panicked." Seth admitted as he sighed in relief.
"Panicked? Why?" he was still confused.
"Because, Roman and I were in the kitchen, talking about the incident last night when all of a sudden we felt an immense power. A very strong one." He paused. "So, we went to investigate and turns out that the smell coming from here, inside your room. That's why I destroyed your door to check if you were okay? Someone's with you here while you're asleep."
Dean was beating himself into pulp. Luckily, he had mask himself from them in time or else. He gulped and widened his eyes.
You're so stupid for forgetting to mask your powers.
He tried to stay calm and let out a sigh of relief. "Really?"
Roman nodded. "I don't know why it's happening right now. But I think it must have to do with last night's incidents. Some supernatural creatures might have seen us while dealing with those vampires."
Seth agreed and Dean went to the flow.
"So, if someone's here while I was dead to the world, what kind of supernatural being was here?" Dean asked.
"If I'm not mistaken, it's a hybrid." Seth rubbed his nose. "A very rare one."
"What kind of hybrid?" he raised his eyebrows, playing with them.
"A vampire-mage. Half vampire. Half mage." Roman sniffed while Dean flinched. "The power was now diminishing. Looks like this being had managed to escape. Plus, I start to wonder why this vampire-mage paid you a visit?"
Dean just shrugged and he told himself to put his emotions intact. The important thing is, they haven't found out that it was his.
"Revenge." Seth curtly replied as they looked at him. "This vampire-mage might have seen us killing his own kind and went to Dean to pay him a visit instead of us Roman. This creature was giving us a warning by him entering our apartment." He said while he paled. "That he can pass our defense."
Dean feel sad because they all worry about his safety knowing that they're just wasting their time worrying when there's nothing to worry about. He cleared his throat.
"What if he has another reason? What if this vampire-mage didn't come here to take revenge? What if he/she is just passing by?" Dean reasoned.
"Passing by? Feels like this vampire-mage have been watching you for I don't know. Whole night or just a couple of minutes." Roman replied as Dean raised his hands in surrender.
"From now on Dean, you are in our care now." Seth said as he rolled his sleeves.
"Wait … what?" his jaw dropped.
What the fuck?
"After the incident last night and this, I think we have to keep an eye on you." Roman said as he smiled at Dean, who was opening his mouth to complain but Roman gave him a stern look. "Since you know what we are, I think you're pretty involved now." He sighed. "Who knows, there are other vampires had witness us last night. Some vampires could be very vengeful and they might come after you as well knowing that you're with us."
Roman's right though. Some vampires are vengeful and always hungry for world domination.
"We know you don't need protecting, Dean. It's just that, you're our friend and you're not like us. We're not saying that you're weak, we're just saying that humans and supernatural beings have different strength." Seth said slowly as Dean closed his mouth knowing that they can be as stubborn as him.
"Fine! But don't be like overprotective or something, okay? I don't like that."
"Sure. If that's what you want but if we think its necessary then we'll do the overprotective thing." Roman snickered.
"Damn you fuckers!" he calm down, laughing already as they laughed with him.
"By the way, I'm sorry for your door. I can't fix it with my powers though. I'm a poltergeist." Seth apologized but still smirking.
"It's okay. I'll just call Sami to fix my door though. No biggie." He smirked back.
Roman had offered them to eat breakfast. They went to the kitchen and eat their breakfast like nothing happened. Of course, there's a presence of joking around and other stuff that they only knew. Seth even showed his powers to Dean, who was quite impressed as Roman rolled his eyes. Seth had seen it as he used his powers to levitate Roman in the air before putting him on his chair. Seth laughed because he'd been wanting to do that since that night after he played with the pizza guy for treating him badly. Dean, had to act surprised though. After a couple of show, they went to their rooms doing their own business such as taking a bath, getting ready for their work. Roman changed into his Gym uniforms. He was now on the living, waiting for Dean and Seth to get out of their door.
Seth appeared wearing a shirt imprinted "Car is bae" on it. Dean appeared holding his paper works but still on his pajamas. They both laughed at Dean.
"You're going to work in your pajamas?" Roman chuckled.
Dean was confused at first until he looked at himself and blushed when he realized he was still in his pajamas. He was still caught up from their reaction a while ago though. He palmed his face and smiled sheepishly at them as Seth continued to teasing him.
"Haha, very funny. At least I'm not a dork who's overly obsessed with a car." He rolled his eyes as Roman laughed harder.
"Nice comeback, Dean." Roman snickered as he was punch by Seth who was now pouting like a spoiled little brat. "Now, get change, human."
"Just go without me guys, I'll be working with some paper works before heading to my workplace. Can't finish this there lest I get fired. Besides, it's still 7. My time of in is 9 so literally, I still got two hours straight to finish some paper works." He shrugged coolly. "So scoot over, you lazy bones."
Seth and Roman exchange looks as Dean was now aware that they are worried about him being alone. He sighed internally and told them not to worry about him. They were very reluctant at first but nodded their heads and exited the apartment as Dean sighed and relaxed, sitting on the sofa and read the papers. Roman and Seth were now walking towards Seth's car and Roman had sense that his friend's mood change when they approached Seth's car.
"Damn it! I forgot that my car was being scratched by that stupid vampire." He grumbled.
"Don't fret, Seth. I'm sure you can patch that up." He snickered clearly enjoying watching his friend grumbling over his car.
"Patch up my arse!" he rolled his eyes.
He just shook his head. Roman got in his car. While Seth was inspecting his car to watch the damage.
"For fuck sake Seth, c'mon!" he grumbled but he heard a gasped from Seth.
"Hey Roman." He called. "Get out of the fucking car and take a look."
"Are you serious? I know it has been scratched but ..."
"No, I'm serious. Just come look at it. You'll be surprised." He almost yelled happily and Roman wondered why he was happy. Seth sounded like a little brat not being able to get what he want from moments ago.
"This better be worth my time or I'll skin you alive."
He got out of the car and walked towards Seth as he followed his gaze. He rolled his eyes and was expecting to see a long scratch of his car but instead he saw none. He was overly confused at this and so was Seth. They could honestly tell, that the car was scratched last night. They saw it with their own eyes. But they could also feel the faintest sense of magic on his Seth's car. They exchange confused looks and look back at the car.
"It's the same power that we had sense in Dean's room a while ago right?" Roman asked Seth.
He nodded. "Yes Roman. I'm confused. If that supernatural being fixed my car, then it might not be harming us but why was this hybrid at Dean's room? I mean we didn't see who he/she was but we can tell by his/her powers that he/she's there."
Seth was scratching his head. Roman was thinking deeply.
"What does that hybrid needs with Dean?" Seth was now showing signs of concerns as Roman tried to calm himself down.
They looked at the apartment thinking about not leaving but they also remembered what Dean said about being too overprotective. So, they went inside the apartment, startling a busy Dean whose papers were now flying at their sudden entrance. They apologized and Seth used his powers to organize the paper itself. After that, Dean was confused at them for being still here and they explained everything. Dean was act surprised at their explanation about Seth's car being fixed and almost laugh when they told him that whoever fix Seth's car wants something from Dean. Luckily, Dean was good at handling his emotion because he's the one who fixed his car and it didn't tire to see them being all so worked up for this.
Where did they get that kind of thought?
He keep nodding at their explanation and bit his own tongue to stop himself from laughing because their faces were priceless. Dean told them there's nothing to worry and that he'll be okay but the two didn't have of it. They won't leave Dean on his own right now. So, they made an agreement to help him do the paper works and they did. After they finished all the paper works, Dean called Sami Callihan, his friend who likes fixing things and will pay him through credit cards. Dean still had 1 hour but them not leaving without him made him to prepare himself for work. He took a quick shower, putting a lot of sunscreen on his body as always, wearing his leather brown jacket with a white shirt over it, jeans and his black boots. He doesn't like wearing any suits because he just doesn't like it. Makes him look old or something. The trio's went to the car as Seth drop them to their work. Their work went well day and night. Or so they thought.
