A/N: I own Persephone.

Thank you for the reviews!

I had just gotten home from work and I was tired. I was glad that Cesaro was coming in tomorrow night so that we could work on more wedding stuff. I showered and walked into the living room. I was going to turn on the tv when my ring caught my eye. The rings was a beautiful diamond solitaire set in a white gold band with smaller diamonds on the band. I sighed as I looked at it. I knew that I loved him and I had since we had been friends... but would I ever love him like I loved Dean? I didn't even feel for Seth the way I felt for Dean. I shook my head to clear the thoughts out because I knew that I would never have another chance with Dean. Cesaro was my new love and my future husband... I knew that.

I was pulled from my thoughts when someone rang my door bell. I wasn't expecting anyone. I peeked out the door and was surprised at what I was seeing. I pulled the door open to see he was really outside my house.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him as I opened the door. Cesaro was the only one who knew where I lived. I had no idea how he found me.

"We weren't finished talking when you shut the door in my face." Seth said and I shook my head.

"Leave, Seth. We have nothing to say." I said and he chuckled.

"I have lots to say." he said and I shook my head no. I turned to leave, but he pushed the door open. I knew that this night wasn't going to go as planned.

Dean POV

I walked up to the corporate building. I had never been here, and I didn't even care to be here now. I walked in, asked to see Percy, and was told where her office was located in the building. I took a deep breath as I stepped off the elevator and turned to find her office. My heart started to beat faster as I walked closer. I was nervous and I had no idea what to say.

I walked up to her door and started to knock when she raised her head. I saw a huge bruise on her cheek and got livid. I walked in and shut the door. I startled her as her head shot up. She started at me with her mouth hanging open and I stared right back.

"What the fuck are you doing here?" she finally asked me. I really didn't know what to say, but my feet carried me towards her. She stood up as I got closer and I did the only thing I knew to do. I pulled her face to mine and pressed my lips to hers.

I pulled away to see tears in her eyes. I knew that she needed someone today and I needed her.

"Come on." I said and she nodded. She grabbed her bag, emailed them she was sick, and we left. I had taken a cab, so she handed me her keys. I got into her SUV and she directed me to her new house. She had put on sunglasses, but I could see tears fall from underneath them. I knew it was Cesaro, but whoever had hurt her was dead.

We walked inside and I saw things trashed. I stopped and looked at her as she took her sunglasses off.

"Seth decided to redecorate last night." she whispered and I pulled her to me. I felt her sob into my shoulder. I picked her up and carried her upstairs. I found one bedroom that was completely destroyed, so I carried her to the other one that I saw. I sat down and held her. I remembered the last time that Seth had done this to her. I should have killed him then.

"Did he... do that?" I asked her and she shook her head.

"No, he was mad, but he didn't do that." she said and I nodded.

"Are you hurt other than your cheek?" I asked her and she pulled her jacket off to reveal a large bruise on her arm that was in the shape of finger prints. I nodded and pulled her back to me.

"Why are you here?" she finally asked me after a few more minutes.

"I had to talk to you." I said and she scooted away from me.

"Do you mind if I change? And then we can talk." she said and I nodded.

"Which bedroom is yours?" I asked her and she chuckled.

"This one." she said and I glanced around the room. She had a large 4 poster bed made of dark wood and matching chest. I saw a rocking chair in the corner, and some pictures.

"I will let you get changed. I will be downstairs." I said and she nodded. I walked downstairs and started to pick things up. I wasn't sure why I was, but I felt bad for her. I knew that Seth had been one of the experiences she should never had to experience.

"You didn't have to pick stuff up." she said behind me as I looked at the pictures on her wall. I saw one of all of us from Europe. I was surprised that she had it on the wall.

"I wanted to." I said as I looked at the picture. I was surprised to see that we all looked happy. I was still with Renee. The picture was of Me, Renee, Percy, Cesaro, and Roman.

"I kept that one because it was one of my favorite memories of that internship." she said and I nodded. I remembered that night... it was the first night we were in Germany.

"Do we have to go out tonight?" I asked Renee and she nodded.

"Percy has never been to Germany... we are going." she said and I sighed.

"Who else is going?" I asked her.

"Roman, Cesaro, Percy, and Sheamus." she said and I sighed.

I was dragged to a bar that night and I tried to have fun. I was sipping on a beer while they were all talking. I didn't have much to say.

"We are heading to the next place." Renee said and I sighed. I was ready to go back.

"I'm going back." I said and they all nodded.

"Can I go back with you? I have a headache." Percy said and I nodded.

"Sure." I told her and she told everyone bye as we parted ways. We were walking and she pulled me into a bar near the hotel.

"This isn't the hotel." I said and she chuckled.

"And I want a beer without Renee talking though it." she said and I smirked. I gladly kept her company through two more beers and realized that night that there was no way Renee was my future; she was.

"I knew that night." I said and turned to see her. She was in yoga pants and a tank top. She handed me a beer and I cracked it open.

"What did you know?" she asked me as she sat on the sofa. I followed and looked at her.

"I knew that I didn't want Renee... I knew that I wanted you." I admitted and she nodded.

"Why did you walk away?" I asked her and she took a sip of beer.

"You deserve someone who can handle you. You need someone who can help you. You need someone who has had more experiences than I have. You just need someone better." she said and I sighed.

"I don't, Percy. I need you." I said and she chuckled.

"No, I am boring." she said and I smirked.

"Maybe I want boring. I want nights in. I want someone to come home to... and a family." I admitted.

"I have Cesaro." she said and I shook my head.

"Don't marry him, Percy." I said and she sighed.

"Dean..." she was saying, but I cut her off.

"No, Percy, I love you. I love you so much more than I have ever loved anyone. I went crazy when you disappeared. I didn't know what to do with myself. You were my world... and I love you." I said and looked at her. I was hoping for any reaction from her.

AN: What will Percy do?
