SUBTITLE: BREAKING CHARACTER

CHAPTER 29

"Excuse me, what the hell are you so giddy about?" Robin grilled Olivia as she made breakfast the next morning. Olivia called off from work anticipating a hangover and Robin insisted on making breakfast at her apartment for the birthday girl.

"Oh nothing…" Olivia craned her neck to see where Dean was.

"He's not here. Dean and Seth went to work out this morning." That explained where Seth had disappeared to before Liv woke up. He just left a note on her nightstand that said he'd see her later. "What freaky, sneaky shit did you get into last night?!" Robin dropped the spatula in the pan and leaned in to get all the details.

"It was a birthday to remember, girl!"

"Ooh, you and Seth or you and Wade?" Olivia's face turned red with anticipation of Robin's reaction.

"Well….both!"

"What?! You had sex with them in the same night?" Robin picked up the spatula to flip the eggs.

"Yeah, but….it was at the same time." Robin dropped the spatula and walked out of the kitchen before returning with a shocked look on her face.

"The same time! Liv, have we swapped sex lives or something?!"

"I don't know what came over me. I was sitting on my couch with them one minute and the next they were in bed with me!"

"Oh Shit, Liv!" Robin finally gained her composure and went back to cooking. "How was it? Were they fighting for your attention?"

"Kinda, but it was insane! I've never been that turned on before!"

"So, how were they acting this morning?" Olivia took a sip of orange juice and tried to fathom what last night has done to her love triangle.

"Well, Seth left before I woke up. He left a note saying he'd see me later."

"And how was Wade?" Olivia gave Robin a bashful smirk.

"He was okay. He was in my kitchen making coffee when I woke up. He just said, 'I love you, Livy. I hope you know that.'" Robin raised her eyebrows as Olivia talked about Wade.

"Hmm…"

"What the hell was that about?" Olivia knew Robin was dying to say something.

"Nothing…I'm just listening."

"Right!" Olivia and Robin's gab session was interrupted by Dean walking into the apartment with Seth.

"Hey Tweety." Dean wrapped his arms around Robin and kissed her neck. "Hey Liv. How's that hangover?" Robin gave Dean a look letting him know he had no idea of the kind of things that went on last night. Dean being Dean, shot Seth a look and gave him a congratulatory punch in the arm. "Oh so you have a love hangover!" Olivia covered her face in embarrassment and Seth started to turn red.

"Leave them alone, honey." Robin winked at Olivia and Dean knew there was something else going on.

The guys went into the living room to watch TV while the girls stayed in the kitchen. Seth tried his best to ignore the hole Dean was staring into him.

"Cut the bullshit, brother! What's going on?" Seth's head dropped knowing Dean wouldn't rest until he got some answers.

"Nothing…"

"Oh come on, Rollins! You can tell me. There's nothing so freaky that I haven't heard of…or done with Tweety." Dean winked and looked in the kitchen to make sure the girls weren't listening. "What was it? Did you lick her asshole? Tweety loves that."

"Whoa! I know way too much about you guys!"

"Hey we have no shame! I'll do whatever makes her happy and she's the same way." Seth looked at Dean for a moment trying to decide if he wanted to tell him about last night.

"What if she wanted to have a threesome with you and another dude?" Dean rubbed his chin as if it were some great philosophical question.

"Hmm…it depends on the guy and the situation…" Dean stopped talking as a light bulb went on in his head. "Wait a second! You and Liv had a threesome? With who?" Dean's eyes were nearly bugging out of his head.

"Barrett…" Dean shot up from the couch, walked into the bathroom and walked back into the living room almost exactly the way Robin did when she found out.

"Barrett! She fucked you and Barrett at the same time?!" Dean plopped back down on the couch and tried to wrap his head around the news. "She doesn't seem like the threesome type! Now, Tweety….well you know, but Liv?"

"I had to get out of there this morning before she woke up. I didn't want to risk her getting up first and then I'd be left alone in bed with Barrett!" Dean's loud laughter got the girls attention in the kitchen. After seeing the mortified look on Olivia's face, Dean didn't want her to know they were talking about her.

"Sorry girls! Seth and I are in here talking about the time he shit his pants when Kane choke slammed him." Seth just shook his head in embarrassment before covering his face. Dean's plan seemed to work because the girls went back to their conversation. Dean leaned in to whisper to Seth with a twisted look on his face. "You guys didn't cross swords did you?"

"What? No!"

"Then you're good! But let me tell you this…" Dean leaned in closer. "Sex is one thing, but you need to straighten out your situation in public. You guys looked like idiots fawning all over her last night. If she wants you, she wants you. If she doesn't, brother you gotta let go." Just as Dean finished talking, the girls came in and joined the guys.

"You ready to start some wedding planning before you have to leave for Jersey?" Robin sat on Dean's lap and kissed him all over his face.

"You bet, Tweety." Dean's voice was dripping with sarcasm. "Now if I get to pick the lingerie for the wedding night, I'm all in!" Dean growled as he nipped at Robin's neck making her scream. Seth looked at them and then he looked at Olivia. He knew he wanted the kind of relationship they had someday, but he was getting more and more afraid that it wouldn't be with Olivia.

While Seth and Olivia stayed at Robin's in an attempt to get some alone time away from Wade who was still at her apartment, Robin and Dean visited some bridal shops to decide on the color scheme and style of tuxedos. After going in and out of countless shops, they stopped at a coffee shop to take a break.

"Tweety, this seems like a hell of a lot of work. Maybe we should get somebody to take care of this shit." Dean blew his coffee to cool it down.

"It is a lot. To be honest, I never really wanted a lavish wedding. I never saw the appeal in a $100,000 wedding." Dean fell in love with her all over again.

"Tweety…let's just have the wedding in Vegas! No bullshit or unnecessary materialistic crap. Just us and our closest friends having a party!" Robin's face was contorted as images of the tacky Vegas wedding filled her head.

"But I've always wanted to be married by a minister I know, in a tasteful wedding. Not some tacky ass love grotto." Dean laughed heartily knowing exactly what Robin was imagining.

"Baby, I promise there will be no gold suits or Elvis impersonators at our wedding." He caressed her face and she melted. "Come with me to Vegas and we can plan a simple, tasteful ceremony. We can have it on my birthday weekend." He kissed her hand and gazed at her with those engaging blue eyes. "Trust me, Tweety."

"I trust you, Dean, but planning a wedding in less than a month?"

"Tweety…trust me!" How could she argue with that man? He knew exactly what she had in mind for their ceremony and he'd do anything to make her dreams come true.

Meanwhile, Olivia left Seth at Robin's apartment to go check on Wade. She opened the door to her apartment and saw a beautiful bouquet of roses on the coffee table. Their aroma wafted throughout the room. She checked for a card and sat down to read it.

Livy,

I got on the road early. I waited for you to come back, but I understand you needed some space. I'll call you this evening after the taping.

Love Always,

Wade.

Her heart melted as she read his words. There was something about Wade that made Olivia feel like a woman. Ever since she got what she thought she wanted last night, things were becoming less and less grey. She didn't want to rush, but her tough decision wasn't seeming so impossible anymore.
