Chapter Eight: Separation
Hypnotic's POV
I get on a plane back to Ohio and I have thoughts flooding my mind the entire trip. I think about how Dean is holding up and the fact that I am going home without him beside me. I feel I am going to break down the closer I get to home. I need him to help me get through this.
I reach home to meet my mom crying at the door. She says she misses my dad. I am an only child, so there is no one else to comfort her. She talks to me about the funeral plans, who is going to be there, and how dad passed away. Once I manage to calm her down, I call Dean.
"Hey beautiful, how are you holding up?" Dean asks.
"I am trying to stay strong, Dean. I wish you were here. How are you holding up?"
"I am going crazy without you but I will manage. Just promise me you will be careful and make it back to me safe, babe. I don't know what I would do without you," he says and I smile.
"I promise babe and I love you. I will call you later tonight" I say.
"I love you too babe," he says.
Dean's POV
I feel like I am going crazy without her around but we talk on the phone every time she gets a chance to call me. I miss her constantly and seeing Seth, AJ, Roman, and Paige makes me sad because I can't hold my girlfriend in her time of need.
"Paige, have you talked to Hypnotic lately?" wondering if she talked to her today.
"No, I talked to her last night and she sounded like shit," Paige says and then goes back to picking on Roman.
I just go back to my hotel room to lay down. We don't have a show for the next few days but the boss doesn't want me to go anywhere. I think Stephanie just wants me to stay out of trouble.
Hypnotic's POV
I head to the store for my mom because she hasn't been there this week and from the state I have seen her in, I know that she shouldn't go. I see some old friends of mine there and they offer their condolences. I don't feel like talking much to anyone. I just want to go back home as quickly as possible.
"Hey girlie," I hear someone behind me so I turn to see my ex-boyfriend.
"What do you want, Jake?" I say instantly pissed off.
"I missed you since you left. Baby, I am really sorry. Please forgive me." Jake says. He seems sincere and all the feelings I felt toward him have returned.
"Don't lie it's not a pretty color on you" I scoff and begin to walk away.
"Baby, please don't walk away. I am serious! I miss you I am not lying," he grabs my arm to stop me from leaving.
"I don't believe you and even if you mean it, you have a lot to prove before I will ever take you back. You're nothing but a jerk" I yank my arm away from his hold.
"Okay, fine. Come with me to dinner at 8 tonight please. I will pick you up from your mom's house" he says.
"If it gets you to leave me alone, then fine. I'll go." I say before I leave.
As I walk away I think of Dean and what I'm going to tell him. I miss him so much and then Jake comes back into my life and tries to get me back. I don't know what I am going to do. Jake and I were together for five years and we were great until he cheated on me. I miss being close to Jake but I love Dean.
I get ready for tonight and tell my mom about it. She is happy since she always loved him. I make dinner for her and finish getting dresses. Finally, Jake arrives in time. He comes up to the door and says hi to my mother.
We walk out and he opens my door which surprises me. He never did that when we were dating. I get in the car and we talk about little things and I tell him I travel now. He is happy for me but he never watched it so he has no clue about Dean.
Dean calls while we are on our way to the restaurant. I hit the ignore button because I just can't talk to him right now. Jake looks over at me curiously and I tell him it's no one important. I feel bad for lying but I just need out of the house. It is so depressing to be in the house with my mother all day.
Our dinner goes well and afterwards, he takes me home and leaves not pushing for anything. Dean has called me five times and but I ignored them all. My mom seems to be doing better so I head up stairs to get some clean clothes and take a shower. When I get out of the shower, I realize that Dean had left some voice mails so start to listen to them one by one.
"Hey baby, what's going on? Call me back please"
"Hey what the fuck are you doing? Answer your phone! I am going crazy over here!" the next message said.
"Fine! Don't answer your phone. I am done. This is bullshit, Hypnotic. You said you would talk to me and now you're shutting me out," this is his last message.
I return his call but this time he doesn't answer. I know he is ignoring me because it rings once then goes to voice mail. Now I am worried because he is such a womanizer. I call again and he still doesn't answer so I don't have a choice but to leave him a message.
"Hey baby, I am sorry. I was busy earlier. Please don't do anything stupid. I love you." I hang up and started to cry for what I did to him.
I know I don't have any more feelings left for Jake. It was over I love Dean with all of my heart. I wake up the next morning and feel like complete shit for doing that to him.
Dean's POV
Hypnotic isn't answering her phone. I am going insane for not knowing what she is doing or maybe who she is doing. I am not happy about this at all. I leave some nasty mean messages for her.
"Roman, get your ass and Seth's to my room now." I say when I call Roman's phone.
"What's up bro?" Roman asks.
"Just get up here now please." They come to my room a few minutes later.
"Dude, what the fuck is going on?" Roman asks.
"I think Hypnotic is cheating on me. I tried calling her five times and she won't answer. So I want to get her back by picking up some random lady." I say.
"No, I think you need to chill out Dean. Maybe she is busy with something else. Don't forget what she is going through right now." Seth says as he glances over at Roman.
"Yeah, my point exactly. She is fragile right now and any dick could get some with a fragile women. They don't think clearly when they are fragile." I say.
"If you're that worried then go see her in Ohio. We will deal with Stephanie later." Roman says.
"You guys will cover for me?"
"Duh, of course we will. Now go get your lady back," Seth says.
I pack a bag and head to the airport. I check my phone and I still haven't received a call back so I shut my phone off.
Once the plane lands after a six hour flight, I turn my phone back on and see I have a voice mail from Hypnotic. I check it and then I call her back.
"Hey babe, I am so glad you called me back. I miss you and I wish you were here," she says.
"Your wish is my command," I chuckle.
"What do you mean, baby?" she asks.
"Well you see, when you didn't answer the phone for the fifth time, I had a talk with Roman and Seth. Needless to say, I am in Ohio and I'm getting a rental car now. I need your address so I can be with you." I am so happy to be here.
She gives me her address and says she will be waiting for me with some lunch.
Hypnotic's POV
"Hey Jake, it was nice catching up with you but I have a boyfriend and I am so happy with him so stay out of my life. I don't want to see you anymore" I say when I call Jake.
"What do you mean? Why the fuck did you tease me all night? Okay, fine. It's over." He hangs up.
I talk to my mom about Dean and she is so happy that she finally gets to meet the real man I am dating. I start fixing lunch before Dean arrives. I see a Cadillac pull into the driveway and I have a feeling it's him. One night while we were talking, I told him that I wanted a Cadillac.
"Hey baby," I say as he pulls me into a tight hug.
"I missed you so much" he says.
"I missed you too baby." I turn to my mother. "Dean, this is my mother."
"You can just call me Mom. Everyone else does," she says with a smile. She must see a connection between us because I have never seen her this happy to meet one of my boyfriends.
"Well mom and Hypnotic, my real name is Jon. From now on you both can call me that." He smiles.
"Jon, my real name is Heaven." I say. Then my mom giggles. "What's so funny mom?" I ask.
"All this time you two have been dating and you only knew each other's ring name" she says and giggles again.
"Yeah, I guess so. We are just so used to it because we have to use those names all the time in the ring and backstage." Jon laughs.
Views on the date she had? Any thing I should have changed? Please review.
