"Move in with you?" Sweat wiped from Dean's brow as he looked up at his boyfriend. Holy fuck. Roman just asked him to move in. Dean's heart started racing about a million miles per minute. He heard that correctly right? Roman had asked him to live with him. It wasn't just some sexed up fantasy Dean conjured up in his mind as Roman made love to him..
This couldn't be real.. was it?
"Yeah. Move in with me." Roman smiled as he looked down at him, his body laid firm on top of his boyfriends, and his hands fell to either side, framing Dean's face. Dean's hair was dripping wet with sweat, and his eyes were bright as the night sky as he looked back at him. Roman couldn't resist cupping his face, caressing Dean's cheek in the most gentle way he could muster. Dean's worried eyes softened at Roman's touch, but still, the anxiety he felt right now was exploding somewhere deep inside of his belly. Thinking about moving in with Roman.. Dean didn't know if that would be a smart decision seeing as he hasn't finished college.
"Ro.." Dean pressed his hand to Roman's shoulder, silently telling his boyfriend to pull out. Roman got the hint then slowly ejected himself from inside of Dean, hearing a soft whimper from him as he did. He was still hard as a rock but his question superseded his erection right now. Roman turned over on the bed then sat up waiting for Dean to answer.
He was met with nevous look by Dean and his eyes held the same story. His silence said it all. He didn't want to move in. Roman felt like such a jackass. He was probably moving too fast for Dean. Why would he ask him to move in when he knew that Dean had everything here. His home he owned, his studio, Seth was here too. Not to mention Dean still had a couple more months of college left. Roman was regretting his word vomit even more now. He scrubbed his face with a sigh, then bounced towards the end of the bed.
"Ro, where are you going?" Dean finally spoke up when he noticed Roman begin to put his pants on without underwear.
"Just.. for a walk." Roman's reply was lined with sadness. He put on one of Dean's tee shirts and then started on his own shoes.
"I.." Dean tried to think of words to say because he didn't want Roman to go. But he also didn't know-how to respond to Roman's question. He was so nervous, and he didn't want to fight with him considering the fact that they just made up a couple of hours ago. Fighting against his inner strife, Dean got up off the bed, standing naked in front of the man he loved. "Ro. Please, don't go. I just need time to process this.. you asked me to move in babe. This is not like.. asking me to go to the movies with you or something. You're essentially asking me to uproot my entire life, to accommodate yours."
"I know!" Roman slapped his hands against his jeans almost exhaustively. "I know it's big okay. I'm sorry." Roman felt stupid. So stupid that he couldn't even meet Dean's eyes. "It was stupid to ask. I know you're trying to finish college here and I'm trying to finish law school in NYC. I just.." Roman finally looked up at him. Fuck. Those eyes. Those cerulean blue eyes that held so much love for him. Yet so much worry, anxiety, and nerves. Roman hated how he was making Dean feel right now.
"It's just what Ro?" Dean moved closer to him, grabbing the ends of Roman's shirt to pull him close. Roman sighed, yet again looking down at his brown prada loafers.
"I'm tired of not waking up next to you every morning, okay?" Roman gritted out, looking up at Dean. And as soon as he did, Dean saw every emotion displayed on the older man's face. "I'm tired of the distance." He exhaled slowly, "Look at it from my perspective, I have this guy and i love him and i know he loves me too. But, we can't see each other unless it's for the weekend. Do you know how badly i wish i could just... come home and see you there?" Roman's eyes turned glassy as he tried to continue, "... All i want is stability in our relationship. I just want you for always babe, and me asking you to stupidly move in with me was a reaction to that. I wasn't thinking about the circumstances when i asked. But we can just.. forget it, okay?"
Roman tried to pull away from Dean but the brunette held on, pulling him back in by his tee shirt. "Let me go Dean. Please?" Roman pleaded. If only because he needed air. He couldn't breathe right now and hearing Dean tell him "no" wouldn't make this situation any better.
"Roman. Stop look at me." Dean demanded and he did, slowly but surely. "... You know i want that too." Dean said back with a growing smile, "I want to be with you always too. I want to move in with you too."
"You.. want to move in with me?" Roman's eyebrow shot up curiously and he cracked a small side smile.
"Yes i do. Believe it or not, I think about it all the time. I want what you want babe. I want you and us forever. Of course I'll move in with you." Dean only grabbed him tighter, letting their foreheads bump against each other. Roman lips formed a full smile now and he waste time in bringing Dean in for small kisses. Dean kissed him back, smiling against his boyfriend's lips. "I finish college in about three months. Around the same time you take the bar. Right after i get that degree, and you pass the bar with flying colors, I'm packing my shit and moving in." Dean kissed him again, sucking softly on Roman's bottom lip for just a second before he released it, "All you have to do is hold on for three more months. Think you can wait that long baby?"
Roman grabbed Dean by his naked thighs and picked him up. One of these days Dean is gonna stop liking being carried by Roman, but today is not that day. He slings easily into Roman's big arms and they kiss again, they kiss like there's no tomorrow. "I can wait." Roman said it with a smile. His hands move under Dean's plump ass and he carries him back to bed. Dean smiled as Roman laid him against his pillows. His legs opened so Roman could see his erection and entrance still very hard and prepped, waiting for him.
"Now.. where were we?" Roman asked as he stood above Dean, taking off clothes again.
Dean giggled and bit his lip as he watched his man undress again. "Umm we were right.."
Dean's jaw dropped slightly when Roman took his underwear off, revealing a still hard and thick cock. Roman got back in bed, turning Dean around so he faced the pillows. With his ass high in the air Roman entered him again, letting nothing but Dean's moans fill the dorm room.
*Monday afternoon*
"Yeah i just got home." Roman turned the key into the door of his apartment and he walked in. He was on the phone with Dean for over an hour now. Dean called him as soon as he landed back in NYC on Monday and the lovebirds proceeded to talk about everything and nothing at once. Going straight to his room, Roman put his bag down and tossed his house keys into his bowl.
"Ooh i can't wait to take up half of your bed when i move in." Dean giggled over the phone.
Roman scoffed, laughing lightly at his boyfriend. "Babe you act like you don't do that already." Roman laughed back at Dean then took off his shirt and jeans and exchanged them for sweats only. "I think I'm gonna eat a banana then work out before class. Wanna video chat from your computer so you can watch me?"
Roman could hear Dean laugh loudly. He loved his laugh. It was sweet and light but also deep and distinguished. Was there anything about Dean that Roman didn't like? The answer was absolutely not. "I would love to watch you work out babe, unfortunately i have a paper due on corrupt companies in today's society. Know anything about Coca Cola water poisoning in India?" Dean asked, in the background Roman could hear him typing on his computer, most likely writing his paper while talking to him at the same time.
It was Roman's turn to laugh as he exited his room. "I can't say that i do. I can tell you about the purposes and methods of comparative law though."
Both boyfriends laughed. Roman walked to the kitchen without a shirt on, hoping that Sami didn't eat up all his bananas when..
"Fuck!" Sami was bent over his counter, getting fucked from behind by Kevin Owens. Roman's neighbor and Sami's boyfriend. Gray eyes widened as he watched Sami toss his ass back against Owens, letting him completely take him... in Roman's kitchen.
"SAMI OH MY GOD!" Roman screamed, causing both men to scramble back, hurriedly fixing their clothes and positions. Sami was red in the face, and Kevin was pratically a vine tomato. They buttoned back up, and then Sami held out his hand, stalling Roman from coming any further.
"Wait... what's happening?" Dean heard Roman scream over the phone, and it worried the brunette.
"It's not what it looks like Ro i promise!" Sami exclaimed worriedly.
"Really? Because it looks like you two were just fucking in my damn kitchen." Roman said back, face scrunched in disgust.
"SAMI'S WHAT?" It was Dean's turn to scream and Roman winced pulling his ear away from his iphone.
"Dean! My fucking ear." Roman said back, putting Dean on speaker phone.
"Sorry." Dean apologized.
"..Okay so maybe this it's exactly what it looks like." Owens added in. That statement wasn't well received though, since Roman was now giving Kevin the 'i will definitely cut you' glare.
"Okay someone better explain because.. really Sam? The kitchen? Your fucking room is right there!" Roman yelled, arms pointing out towards Sami's room.
"Roman calm down." Dean interjected.
"Stay out of this Dean!" Roman yelled back into the phone.
"DON'T give me that shit Roman! You and Dean have fucked all over this apartment. Two weeks ago i came in and you guys were going at it on the couch. Letting him ride you, then what? Oh yeah it was the floor.. the coffee table... THAT wall." Sami pointed to the wall where Roman was standing and Roman looked back at it embarrassingly. He cleared his throat and scratched near his nape.
"Umm.." Dean really couldn't argue with that. "He saw us fucking on the coffee table?"
"DEAN!" Roman screamed at him again.
"It was your idea!" Dean yelled back.
"He's got a great point man. Sometimes Sami comes over to stay at my house cause you and your boy toy and fucking all over this apartment. It's really not fair to be mad at him when you basically do the same thing." Kevin again, added his unnecessary commentary.
"Stay out of this Kevin!" Roman warned.
"Hey don't be mean to my boyfriend! He's just telling the truth. You're a hypocrite. You weren't even here. I'm not near the stove or pans, and i wasn't touching anything but the countertop. Me and Kev just wanted to try something different. And it was good too until you came and ruined it." Sami huffed, crossing his arms. Roman looked between the two men and realized Sami was right. He and Dean pretty much had sex all over the apartment. Sami was living with him, and happened to be dating someone too. If was unfair of him to be mad when he basically did the same thing.
"They've got a point babe." Dean added, sighing into the phone.
"Dean. Shh. I got this." Roman exhaled then looked directly at Sami.
"You guys are right. Sami this is your home too and even though that isn't anything i wanted to walk in on.. you should be allowed to do what you want. Within reason." Roman smiled at them both and Sami smiled back, accepting his answer. "I didn't mean to come across as rude i umm.. was just surprised. I'm sorry." Roman said to both of them.
"It's okay Ro. We're sorry too. And next time i promise.. no more kitchen quickies... when you're here." Sami smirked.
"Or when I'm there either please. I don't need to see that." Roman shook his head at Dean and chuckled lightly. "Babe i gotta go. Late class. Tell Sami i said i don't see nothing wronggg with a little bump and grinddd." Dean sang and everyone in the house laughed. "Love you babe."
"Love you too." Roman hung up then looked between both men.
"So.."
"So?" Sami asked like a question.
"You know umm... before whatever this is happened i was gonna ask you guys later if we could go on a double or maybe a triple date this weekend with Dean and i and Seth and Nikki. Potentially i think that would be great for us... umm.. right?" Roman said, trying to make this situation less awkward.
"Umm yeah. That sounds great, right Kevin?" Sami looked back at his boyfriend and Kevin rose a curious eyebrow.
"Sure but umm.. just one question.."Kevin looked at Roman as he asked, "Who the fuck are Seth and Nikki?"
Dean was walking into class as Elias watched from around the corner. Dean couldn't see him but Elias had a good view of the young artist as he walked by. He was wearing his tight jeans today that framed his plump ass. Elias could tell though, that the shirt he was wearing wasn't his. It was almost a full size bigger than Dean and instinctively Elias knew it belonged to his fucking boyfriend Roman Reigns. He scrubbed his eye, touching it to feel the bruise that formed right under it, almost down his cheek. The bluish-purple shiner was courtesy of that hot head. Elias wanted so bad to get him back but he had a mission. To woo Dean Ambrose. He couldn't put his hands on Roman even if he wanted too. But he was going to hurt him in the worst possible way.
He was gonna take Dean away from him for good.
Speaking of mission, the same moment Dean walked into class, Elias got a phone call. "Yes sir?" He answered, stoically.
"How's it going?" The voice said back over the phone.
"Reigns punched me out yesterday for touching Ambrose. It's hard to break their bond sir. But I'm trying. All i need is to-" He was cut off by a disappointed sigh from the other end of the line.
"I ask you to do one thing. Break my son away from that liberal art idiot and force him to come back to his true family. I don't need excuses Elias. I need results. I hired you because they said you were the best. Now can you do this or not?"
Of course it was Sika on the line. Of course he was still trying to control Roman's life. Roman didn't want to listen to reason, and Randy interfering wasn't enough. He needed someone cute enough, smart and efficient enough to break them up so Roman could come back home. That's where Elias came in. Sika had hired him as his plan B. He always knew Roman wouldn't stay with Randy for long, so he had a back up plan just in case. Sika needed Roman home. Not with some art major idiot who would do nothing but ruin his life. Roman wasn't seeing reason, so like always Sika had to force his hand.
"I can do it sir. I promise. Ambrose will be gone from Roman's life in no time. Just like you wanted." Elias promised his boss he'd do whatever it took and he always kept his promises.
"Good. Remember what we talked about? Nothing stupid or sloppy. No drastic measures either. If you hurt him, Roman will never come home. Keep it simple, don't over think it, let him fall for you the way he fell for Roman. Accidentally. Understand?"
Elias nodded like Sika was watching him and exhaled sharply, "I understand sir."
"Good. I expect another progress update soon." After Sika hung up, Elias slowly walked into class. He saw Dean sitting there, using his computer as usual. Elias walked until he was next to him and sat down, opening his satchel. Dean looked up from his computer and saw Elias sitting next to him and his whole body went stiff.
"Leave me alone Elias i swear or I'll..." Dean began to say under his breath.
Elias cut him off. "I promise you Dean, I'm not here to bother you. And what i did at the party the other night wasn't okay. I'm here to apologize for being an asshole. You made it clear that you have someone you love and i tried to get in the middle of that. I deserved the punch honestly."
Dean took a second to look at his eye. His face softened with empathy as he overlooked it. Roman really did a number on him. Not like he didn't deserve it though. "Yeah. You did." He said with a shrug.
Elias smiled softly. "I really did. But i want you to know that it was never my intention to hurt you or force myself on you. I just think you're really cute and i don't know anyone here. I just wanted a friend that's all." He licked on his bottom lip and then looked down. "I know i ruined all possibilities of a friendship between you and i and i respect your decision to stay away from me. Just know how sorry i am and if you could ever forgive me one day, i really hope we can be friends."
Elias got up and walked over to the other side of the room without even letting Dean reply. He took out his computer and started it up quietly. Dean looked at him and Elias looked back, giving Dean a warm smile. Dean didn't know why, but he felt sorry for Elias now. Having no friends at college sucked, even worse when you're gay and no one noticed or cared. Elias gave him a small wave and Dean smiled genuinely, giving the blond one back.
Elias smirked as he got Dean to wave back at him. Oh yes. He had him in his hooks now. Sika was right. He didn't need to over complicate things. Dean would be putty in his hands soon enough. All he had to do was wait it out and then make sure Roman saw the evidence. Perpetually destroying their happy relationship within. It was the perfect plan.
Elias picked up his phone and sent Sika a text. "He'll be out of Roman's life by next week." He promised with a smirk. Sika texted back a few words of encouragement and of course the account number to which Elias would find his money in.
Elias smiled at his phone then finally looked up to see Dean staring a him again with the most empathic smile.
"Oh you silly putty." Elias thought as he gave Dean a another wave then pretended to focus on class.
A/N: Dean moving in with Roman and me having the pleasure of writing it will be so much fun. Triple dates will be even more fun. I'm really disappointed that nobody called Elias being apart of Sika's grand scheme but maybe I'm just not a very good writer lol. Also to the anon who said my plots are predictable, i have a few more to get through before the end of Once. I hope you're still in for the ride! If it's too predictable for anyone though, i suggest you don't read. I don't want to spoil your mind reading capabilities. As for everyone else i have a few more plots to get through before the end of Once, hopefully you guys stick around to read them! -Melle
