Roman held Miracle's hand, as the two of them walked up onto the porch. Finn opened the door, greeting them. He frowned, seeing that Dean hadn't came with them.

"Where's Dean? And Tommy?"

"He needs some time to himself for today." Roman could hear Seth from inside the house. "Whats going on?"

"Dani." Finn rolled his eyes. "He's got a new habit. Been going to a strip club."

"Oh...Why he's been going there?"

"We have no clue. He says it helps him get over the loss of Hannah, but still. He's going there every night and wasting money."

"Come on, Tommy. Be good for Mama." Dean said, carrying the little pup to the tub. The pup whimpered, obviously not wanting to take a bath. "I know, you don't like baths But you need be cleaned up."

He kissed his forehead. He undressed him, putting him inside of the tub. He placed some of his toys in the water, something to help calm him.

Dean picked up a rubber duck, squeezing it. Tommy giggled, loving the sound it made. It made Dean smile, seeing his youngest so happy.

"Ma ma!" The pup splashed the water, getting some on Dean. The omega splashed a little at the bubbles, trying to be funny for the little guy.

"Ma ma, bath fun!"

Dean nuzzled his nose, kissing it. "Yes, it is fun. But it is also where you get cleaned up." He squirted some shampoo into his hand, then rubbed it in the pup's blonde curls.

Him and Tommy were finally bonding again. Dean was happy that he was making some progress. Things were starting to look up for him now. He couldn't wait to tell Roman about this, how he was able to take care of Tommy by himself. How he wasn't distant towards him anymore.

"Give me that!" Seth snatched the magazine out of Colby's hands.

"Papa! I wanted to see what Uncle Dani was looking at!"

Seth smacked him on the head with the magazine. "You are too young to be looking at stuff like this." He scolded him.

"Seth, man. Chill. He's at that age where he's curious about these things." Dani said.

Seth was seething. He was growing tired of Dani's shit. So much trouble the alpha had put them through. "Dani, you may be Finn's brother, but I will not hesitate to kick you out of this house."

"Go right ahead!" Dani yelled. "You and my brother have too many rules. You both need to lighten up."

"We have rules for a reason." Finn said. "They help make sure our family is doing the right thing, that we are safe."

"Daddy." Miracle pulled on her fathers shirt. "Is Uncle Dani being bad again?"

Roman shrugged. He usually stayed out of these little quarrels that Seth and Finn had with the alpha. He was a good guy, but would always end up making the wrong choices in life. He had to admit one thing though, if he hadn't ran into Dean's mother that one night, then his mate would still be with Sami now.

Dean was almost finished with Tommy's bath. He was cleaning him with the wash cloth now. Was humming to himself, the pup enjoying hearing the sound of his mother's voice.

He heard his phone going off on the sink. He checked it, seeing that Roman had texted him. Telling him that he was taking Miracle to see Kathy. He placed the phone down and was about to go to get Tommy out of the tub, when he heard something coming from outside.

The window was open, to let in some cool air since it was still summer. And he thought he heard a voice calling his name from outside. He looked to check to see if anyone was out there. But he didn't see anyone.

He shook his head. 'I must be imagining things...' He shrugged his shoulders, almost about to close the window. But then he saw movement in the bushes. That was strange. No one was there before.

"W-whose there? Show yourself!"

He heard that voice again. "Its me, Dean." The owner of the voice emerged from the bushes, showing himself. The omega's mouth fell open, seeing him.

"Sami! Y-you're alive?"

"Of course I'm alive." The alpha chuckled. "Come outside, baby. I need to see you."

"I'll be right down." Dean was elated, to know that the alpha he thought he lost was still alive. Sami had survived. He came back to him. Now they could be together again. He rushed to get out of the house, his mind too focused on the feeling of happiness he felt in this moment. He was forgetting about something even more important...

"Sami!" He went to him, his arms going around his neck. Their lips met instantly, the alpha picking up the omega in his arms. "You came back for me...I can't believe it..." Tears were running down his face.

"Nothing could ever keep me from you, Dean."

Dean pulled away from him. "Our daughter, she's growing more and more each day."

"I'm glad that she is. She's going to be perfect."

"You need to take me away from here, Sami. I can't stand it...being with Roman...just being with him, is starting to make me think different about you..."

"And you should."

"W-what?" Dean stepped back from him. Could what Roman have said about Sami possibly be true?

"Dean, Roman is right. I used you this whole time. I turned you against him so you could only want me instead."

It all made so much sense. Dean could remember more of his past. All of the torture and abuse he suffered from. But not from Roman. From other people. And what Sami did to him was the same. He put him through the same hurt that they have.

"I was too blind to see it...because of my instincts. Because of some fucked up part of me."

"You gave your consent to me." Sami smirked at him.

"You lied to me!" Dean screamed at him, having enough of the alpha's lies. "I was so stupid! So stupid to believe you!"

"Yes, you are. You are so pathetic, Dean."

"Stop, please." Dean fell down to his knees.

"No, you need to hear what I have to say. You are not a good omega. You turned your back on me, on Roman. Its no wonder that he abandoned you."

"Shut the fuck up!" Dean stood up, hitting the alpha in the chest. "Roman has never given up on me. He loves me!"

"But you are not the omega he used to love."

"I...I'm getting better...Sami, why? Why are you still haunting me? Please, just let me be. Let me go."

"Not until I can destroy you, Dean." Sami said, lifting his face up. "Roman still has a tiny bit of faith left for you, but what do you think he'll do once he finds out what you done?"

The omega furrowed his eyebrows. "W-what are you talking about?"

"I'm still here, Dean. In your mind. What you see before you is nothing but an illusion. I may be dead, but you can't get rid of that easily."

"I...I don't understand..."

"You are suffering so much that you can't tell whats real and what isn't. You let yourself be distracted by me, your omega still wants me."

Dean struggled to get out of his arms. "N-no...no! You're wrong..."

"Admit it, Dean!" Sami taunted him some more. "You don't care about old family anymore! You would even let your own son die!"

"M-my son? T-Tommy?"

"His little body is now floating in the water. He was crying out for you, but you didn't care."

"NO! Tommy!" Dean turned around, about to run back into the house. He ended up tripping over something on the ground. He slowly sat up, feeling pain in his stomach. "F-fuck..."

He looked behind him to see if Sami was still there. The alpha was gone. Dean's mind was only playing tricks on him. He couldn't believe he had fell for it.

With whatever bit of strength he had left in him, he managed to get back on the porch. He held onto the rail to help pull himself up. The agonizing pain was still there. He felt guilty for quite a lot right now. Leaving Tommy alone in the tub. Letting these illusions get the best of him. For falling and hurting the pup still growing inside him.

While clutching onto his stomach, he headed back upstairs, being careful for he felt as if his legs would give out underneath him.

"T-Tommy...Baby...H-hold on...Mama's coming, baby."

'Please still be alive. I can't lose him. I can't lose my baby!'

He made it back to the bathroom, seeing the pup's small body face down in the water. He ran over to him, calling out his name. "Tommy!"

He took the pup out of the water, holding him to his chest. "Tommy? Tommy, open your eyes. Please. Please, baby!"

He took the pup to his bedroom with him, doing his best to try and get him to breathe. But it wasn't working. No matter how hard he tried the pup still wasn't breathing. The pain was still there in his stomach, but he wasn't focused on that. He was more worried about the life of his little boy.

Tears fell down his face, as he look on hopelessly at his pup. "Please, Tommy." He sobbed. "I can't lose you..." He wiped at his eyes, standing up. He had to call his mate for help. He needed him so much. Hopefully he would know what to do.

He grabbed his phone, dialing Roman's number. The alpha answered after a few rings.

"Dean, me and Miracle are at Kathy's. Eating lunch. How are you and Tommy doing?"

"Roman, please home soon!" Dean cried out. "I need you here now!"

"Baby, whats wrong? Did something happen to you?"

"Roman, its Tommy...He's not breathing! Please, come home, I'm so scared!"
