A/N: I own Persephone.
Thank you to Yankees01, FantaseyImager, Guest, and espeon44 for the reviews.
espeon44 - Paige is going to make appearances in the story.
I looked at Dean as he casually leaned against the doorframe. I grabbed my water and tugged the shirt down a little lower. I hadn't expected to see anyone. I had already had some interesting encounters with him and wasn't sure where this was going to go. I looked at him and he was studying me as his eyes shifter lower than the shirt.
"I didn't mean to disturbed you." I said as he pushed himself off the doorway and sauntered over to me. I backed up a little more.
"You didn't. I didn't know anyone else was awake." he said and opened the fridge. He pulled out a beer and held it out to me. I looked from the water to beer and then accepted the beer. He chuckled and got another one.
"I was going to sit outside, come on." he said and I followed him outside. We sat on the patio and the stars were beautiful.
"The stars are beautiful." I said and he smirked before taking a swig of beer. He lived on the outskirts of Vegas and I understood why. He was far enough away from the lights and annoyances of the strip. I was a few blocks off the strip and while it was a good view you saw a lot of things that surprised you.
"Thank you for tonight. I am sure that we would have been arrested." he admitted after a few seconds. I chuckled and shrugged. I knew that Dean had a temper and Renee had no filter when she was drinking.
"I know that she can be hard to handle at times... and I didn't want to see anyone in handcuffs tonight." I said and he scoffed. I wasn't surprised that he didn't deny it.
"You are just her personal assistant... try being her boyfriend." he quipped and I looked at him sideways. I knew that he made her happy, and I guess that I thought she made him happy.
"Sorry, Dean, I don't really have any relationship experience to respond to that. Seth is only the second guy I have ever dated." I admitted and he looked surprised.
"Don't look at me like that... I was a geek." I said and he chuckled.
We continued to talk about different things. He let me in on a few things about their relationship and I just listened. Dean was really smart and apparently he was nice somewhere in there. I thanked him for the beer and crawled in bed next to Seth. He immediately cuddled up to me and I fell asleep quickly.
Dean POV
I groaned when the bed shifted. I opened my eyes to see Renee laying down holding her stomach.
"I need Percy." she mumbled and I sat up a little.
"Why?" I asked her as she groaned.
"I need her to make me an alka-seltzer." she said and I shook my head. I was surprised at her right now. She was acting fucking helpless because she drank too much.
"No, Renee, she has days off. Go make it yourself." I told her and she groaned again.
"You are my boyfriend... you make it for me." she said and I sighed. I knew that this would quickly turn into a fight and got up. I looked at the time and it was barely 9 am. I hadn't been asleep very long as I trudged into the kitchen. Seth was in there making coffee.
"You alright?" he asked me as I grabbed a glass.
"I am tired and she's sick." I said as I started to make the drink.
"She drank a lot last night. I am glad that Percy was thinking on her feet." he said and I nodded.
"Me too. I owe her." I said and he gave a small smile.
"She's great." he admitted and for a spilt second I was jealous. I was jealous that Percy still made him smile, that she cared, and that she wanted to be around him. I didn't feel that Renee wanted me around half the time.
"Is she ok?" I asked him and he nodded.
"She is still sleeping. I was going to let her if you all don't mind." he said and I shook my head.
"Do whatever... we will probably sleep in more." I said and he nodded. He headed out to the back patio. I walked back into the bedroom and handed it her. I was asleep before she even finished it.
Persephone POV
We had been back on the road and things felt different between Dean and Renee. Seth had told me they had a huge fight the night after we had gone out. He had come to my place to escape it.
"Percy?" Renee called and I looked up at her as I scanned through the set up for her autograph signing today with Maryse. I walked over and she handed me her phone. The already had a line out the door and they were about to go out.
"Can you please make me a reservation for tonight? I want to go somewhere nice with Dean. It's our anniversary." she said and I nodded.
I got to work on that and setting up more travel while she and Maryse went out there. I had just made a reservation when someone walked up and sat next to me. I found a cup of coffee in front of my face and glanced over. Seth was smiling at me as I accepted the cup.
"Thank you, but aren't you afraid you will be mobbed?" I asked him as I saw Roman nearby on his phone.
"Not worried about it because I wanted to see you." he said and I smiled.
"Just you and Roman worked out?" I asked him and he nodded.
"Dean showed up for a little while, but left early after his shoulder was hurting." he said and I nodded as I saw him rubbing his knee.
"You hurting again?" I asked him and he shook his head no.
"Tough work out. I'm fine." he said and kissed me. I was glad that Seth was around while they did the signing. He and Roman left before it was finished so that they weren't seen. Renee walked out and I gave her the bag and phone I had been holding for her. We walked to the parking lot and got into the car they had sent for her. Maryse was leaving with Mike.
I was reading a text from Seth when I saw her phone got flying through the car. I glanced at her and she looked upset. I slowly picked up her phone and sat it on the seat.
"Everything alright?" I asked her and she wiped at her cheeks.
"He doesn't want to go tonight." she said and I felt for her. I understand being upset about that.
"He said that he wants to talk." she said after a few seconds and I knew that this probably wasn't going to be good.
"Don't worry about him today. You and some divas should go out. I know that Nattie and Paige are in town." I said and she gave a small smile.
"I suppose I should have some fun tonight." she said and I nodded.
"Good idea. I will call them and we can all go out tonight." she said and I raised an eyebrow when I heard 'we'.
"We?" I asked her.
"Yes, Percy, you are coming too. You have to help me." she said and I nodded. I knew not to argue, especially since she was already upset with Dean. She called Paige and Nattie while we were heading to the arena and they were in for tonight.
"Thanks, Percy." she said as we walked into the arena. I nodded and wondered why I had gotten myself into this. I really hoped that I didn't run into Dean tonight... I was going to ask him what the hell was going on.
AN: Will they have fun? What will happen between Dean and Renee?
