Dean got out of the hotel's elevator with Seth clinging onto him on his one arm as he carried his luggage in his other hand. Seth had his head still rested under the left side of the crook of Dean's neck, and it was being very difficult for Dean to walk in this position, but somehow he managed to reach at Seth's hotel room's door.

And, without even wasting any single second Seth quickly pulled out his key card from his back pocket to hand it to Dean. And, Dean wasted no time unlocking the door to let the younger man step inside the room first before he entered himself, and kicked the door shut right behind his back.

Dean slowly helped Seth to sit up on his bed, and then he quickly moved to unzip Seth's suitcase to look out for a first aid kit. Seth was always a bit more careful towards his health, and being in wwe meant that the wrestlers could suffer injuries on daily basis, so the younger man was always prepared.

Seth wasn't too shocked though that Dean had quickly gone looking for the kit in his bag because after three amazing and long years of their relationship, the Ohioan had definitely known a lot about him.

Yet, what surprised him was that Dean still remembered this considering how he'd broken the older man's heart just a few months ago, and he'd assumed that maybe Dean would've wiped him completely out of his memories, but maybe not.

Dean found the first aid kit and he quickly pulled out a chair to sit right in front of Seth facing the younger, bruised man.

He grabbed Seth's jaw by his left hand before he cleaned his face with a clean cotton. Seth simply stared at the man, and the tears that he'd been controlling for so long just started to flow one by one from both of his eyes simultaneously in pure guilt.

How can Dean help me? Why didn't he leave me there in that dark alley to rot? Why wasn't he cursing or tossing me for breaking his heart? Why?

All these questions were flooding Seth's mind, and Dean just quietly took care of him along with wiping the tears that were flowing. Dean poured some antiseptic liquid on a cotton swab, and he pressed it tightly over the cut near the corner of Seth's lips, and Seth instinctively winced in pain. "Ahhh..."

"Fuck, sorry..." The very first words that Dean uttered in a long time since they'd gotten into Seth's room, and this wasn't something that Seth had imagined.

Did he just say Sorry? What for? Seth thought in his mind.

Seth's mind was now racing realizing how differently Dean behaved tonight as oppose to what he'd thought he would behave if they'd ever had any confrontation after that nasty break up a few months back.

Dean had helped him and gotten him safely back to his room when he could've easily left him in that dark alley, but he did not instead he was here cleaning his wounds. Seth was confused and was now completely covered in regret and shame for breaking this wonderful man's heart.

Seth couldn't help but think as to why Dean was showing him such hospitality even when he knew that he didn't deserve anything good from this man. He was just aching to know what was running inside that wild man's mind.

But, little did he know that at this point Dean's mind was just blank, totally blank! He was just helping Seth because he had too. And, even Dean didn't understand his own actions tonight.

He was somewhat amazed in himself for not trying to kill Seth tonight since he was the same man who'd crushed his dreams of one day being free from the worries of mistrust and settling down in his life for something as pity as fame & success.

"Why are you sorry? I should be the one that should be sorry." Seth spoke softly in between his incoherent sobs after not being able to figure out Dean's intentions at all. Dean just looked right up at him before he cleaned the bad purple bruise that had formed under the crook of Seth's neck where Randy had bitten him before.

"I don't need your sorry. So, just save it." Dean didn't want it to sound that harsh, but he just couldn't help it.

He wasn't exactly pissed at Seth, but he was pissed at himself for caring about this guy just as ever even when now they weren't together anymore. Seth still had a huge control over his heart, and it was nothing but sad.

He still very much had Seth in his thoughts like always as it wasn't even an hour ago when Seth's hurtful, painful, body shuddering words had again clogged his mind. All his sad memories had come rushing to his mind because of what had taken place in the WWE ring tonight.

They both had an intense moment right after his match with Kane when Seth had made an eye contact with him, and smiled right at him while licking his lips devilishly. That taunting and pure evil face of Seth's kept replaying in his mind which had forced Dean to run out of his room, and ride his bike alone in the middle of the dark night.

Dean was lost in his thoughts when he felt Seth grabbing his wrist. He instantly pulled back on instinct as he stared right back at him. "Dean...I'm seriously... sorry." Seth's voice broke apart, and more tears fell, but he quickly wiped them off. "I just don't know what to say...I feel so helpless."

"Then, please just don't say anything." Dean interrupted him as he watched how Seth's face fell apart with disappointment. Why's this happening to me? Why? Dean questioned to himself in his mind as he looked at those disturbed yet very beautiful chocolate brown eyes for which once he'd fallen like a maniac.

Seth had left him, betrayed him, cursed him, yet now when he was sobbing and getting disappointed, then Dean's heart was still reaching out for him. Why the fuck? Why?

Seth watched Dean's head hung low staring down at the floor, and he realized that he was just as conflicted as he was right now, but maybe for totally different reasons. He mustered some courage and again tried to touch Dean only this time he grabbed his shoulder to caress it lightly.

"Dean..." He watched as Dean's eyes got locked with him at once. "Why did you save me?"

"I seriously have got no answer for that." Dean answered back sincerely, and again Seth's face fell with regret. "It shouldn't matter to you anyways."

"But, it does Dean...It fucking does." Seth screamed a bit harshly than he'd intended too, but he was getting frustrated with his thoughts. "It definitely does because I was so bad to you. I threw you out of my goddamn fucking life, yet you helped me. Why?"

Dean was aware about Seth's adamant and demanding nature, and he knew that when Seth demanded something he got it anyhow. Only this time Seth was demanding for some answers to which even Dean had no answers to, so he just kept quiet.

"Why don't you say something? Dean please tell me...you hate me right but you helped me why?" Seth had now gotten to his knees in front of Dean in order to hear those three magical words that he'd been so proud of to make this crazy, uncaring guy learn to speak with his head up high.

It was no secret that Dean was born in a family with no love or support, and that he was told on daily basis by his own goddamn mother that no one would ever love him, so it wasn't much of a shocker that poor Dean had learned to hate that word. But, when he'd gotten in a relationship with Seth then the younger man's encouragement and patience had somehow forced him to accept, and more importantly say those three words that had changed this miserable guy's life at one point.

But, now Seth was being too bold to even think that Dean still loved him, but then again the younger man was no fool as he was a master of minds. He knew better that Dean had to still love him to care about him like he was doing tonight.

The fact was that Seth just wanted success and a little bit of fame in wrestling business very desperately as this was the only thing that he'd worked for in his entire life, but his biggest enemy was his own lover who sadly was his biggest competition in this biz. So, in order to get ahead in his career he had to sacrifice his love, and so he did.

He wasn't actually sad about that decision for over four months now, but when tonight he was getting dragged, thrashed and brutalized by his own authority mates, it was his former lover who'd saved his ass and this had somehow ignited something in his dark, egocentric soul.

A feeling that he'd buried deeply in his heart to get ahead in his profession, but now by some means that feeling was slowly rising back again.

"Dean... please just say something..." He tried to get his former partner to speak, but Dean just stared at him with sadness written all over his face. "I know that I'd hurt you, but I know that..." He trailed and gulped hard before he spoke again. "I know that... that you still love me."

"Really? That's what you think?" Dean was amazed at how shrewd Seth was to state something like that after leaving him for months now. "And, now you're gonna tell that you love me right?"

Seth could hear the disbelief in Dean's voice and without any second thoughts he grabbed Dean by his neck before he crashed their lips together hard in a powerful kiss. Dean tried to push him off, but Seth held him tightly kissing him hungrily. Dean's head was spinning wild with many emotions as Seth forcefully yet skilfully kissed him.

Dean had to admit that since Seth had joined authority he'd become more aggressive, and it could be clearly felt in the way he was kissing him. Seth completely smothered Dean's mouth as he was getting a bit frustrated with Dean not kissing him back.

Dean had enough as he was finally able to place both of hands over Seth's chest to push him off of him. "Stop it Seth!" Dean spat harshly as he wiped his mouth by the back of his hand.

"But, why?" Seth whined. "You love me and I know it... just C'mere." He again pulled Dean closer to his lips as he tried to kiss him when Dean turned his face, and he kissed his cheek instead. "Oh! come on Dean...tell me that you love me." As Seth couldn't kiss Dean on his lips, he started to plant kisses all over his temple, ear, jaw and any place he could find. "Just admit it Dean. You know you need me..."

"No, I don't." Dean stood up from his position as he was getting a bit frustrated with Seth's forceful antics. How dare he? At first he dumps him and now he just wants him to give in like that? Dean just couldn't believe Seth's nerve to even talk to him like that. "I gotta go." He spoke emphatically before he moved to make his way towards the door.

"Please stop! Dean just stop...I beg you." Dean stopped dead in his tracks as he slowly turned around to look at Seth who was shaking and crying a bit too hard. It was now really breaking his heart to see his former lover in such condition, but there was nothing that he could say or do that would make the situation better.

"Please Dean...I need you tonight."

Seth was just a bit too proud to admit it out loud to Dean that breaking up with him was a huge mistake, and that he'd always known that Dean was the perfect guy for him. But, now he was falling apart watching Dean walk away because no matter how many times up until today he'd told himself that Dean was nothing to him, yet his bastard heart still beat for the lunatic fringe.

"Please stay Dean. Stay with me..." He pleaded over & over as few more tears rolled down on his gorgeous face.

"I really can't." It took a lot of courage from Dean to keep denying Seth for whom at one point of time he could have even jumped into an ocean, but now things had changed forever.

"Why not?"

"Roman needs me."

There was an eerie silence over the mention of the other former shield member, and Seth's brows instantly furrowed in confusion. "Is he still here? I thought that he would've left by now since he'd undergone that surgery the night before."

"Yes, and he got discharged last night from the hospital, but I wanted him to stay one more night with me before he left."

"Is he okay?" Seth asked with a concern in his voice, and Dean just cringed a bit at his question since the younger man had made no effort up until tonight to know bout the whereabouts of his former best friend, but now all of a sudden he cared.

Dean just shook his head in disbelief as he sighed harder. "Yeah...he's fine, just a bit sore."

"Then, he'll manage. He's a tough guy." Dean raised his brows in surprise over such pathetic response from the younger man. Seth stood up to move towards Dean as he clasped their hands together, and he tried to pull the older guy to cover the short the distance to his bed. "I need you more than him now..."

Dean was now beyond pissed at Seth's behavior, but it wasn't like he didn't expect this from him since Seth had always been a bit dense and selfish. "You're not hearing me Seth. I'm going back to Roman." He pulled at their clasped hands a bit roughly to stop him.

"Ugh! Fuck..." Seth crooked his head to stare at Dean with an annoyed yet incredibly cute face. "Why you gotta care bout that big Neanderthal so much?"

Dean had heard enough as instantly pulled his hand out of Seth's to look directly into his eyes before he spoke angrily. "Because he's my boyfriend."

He didn't even wait for Seth's response before he quickly unlocked the door, and walked right out of his hotel room.
