Dean-
Waking up the next morning, I got up and showered. Heading downstairs, Roman came in. Towel around his neck.
"How's the gym?", I asked.
"Huge man", he said.
Seth was in the kitchen making breakfast. He set out some plates and we served ourselves.
"Anything from Denise?", I asked.
"Just that they're coming up with something. They don't want to bust in too soon. Alberto might point the finger at us", Roman said.
"Good point", I said.
A knock at the door. Seth answered it. Randy and Kane came back with him.
"Denise let us in on their plans for Alberto. Roman, if I would have known he was the one who killed Vinny, I would have handed him over", Randy said.
"I know", Roman nodded.
Randy nodded.
"We just came over to let you know you have today and Friday off. Saturday he's throwing a birthday party for Lucia. He wants to make it up to her", Randy said.
"Okay. So she's stuck inside till then?", I asked.
"No, she went out. Corbin and Graves are with her", Kane said.
"I told them to let me know if they took her out", I said angry.
He looked at me like I was crazy.
"Relax, Swagger went with them. She's in good hands", Kane said.
"That won't stop me from worrying", I mumbled.
"I see someone has bonded with her", Randy said.
"She's alright", I said, rolling my eyes.
My fingers drumming on the table. My leg bouncing.
"If you want, you can call Graves and ask how it's going", Kane said.
I nodded.
"Well, have a good two days off", Randy said as they walked out.
I got up and got the phone, calling Graves.
"Hello", he answered.
"What the fuck? I told you to call me if you took her out. I need to be with her", I said loud.
"I was going to call you, but she said not to wake you. So I called Swagger", he said.
"It doesn't matter what she wants", I yelled.
"Listen, I have to go. Take it up with her when we get home", he said, hanging up.
I slammed the phone on the counter. The guys watched me.
"You're letting your feelings get the better of you Jon", Colby pointed out.
"No, I'm not", I said.
"Don't forget, you're the good guy here. Don't let your feelings cloud your judgement. Yes, I know she's innocent in all this, she's really sweet. I've come to befriend her too, but that won't stop me from doing my job", Joe said.
"And it won't stop me from doing mine", I said.
"I hope not", Joe said.
He walked away. Colby looked at me.
"I'm sorry Jon. I wish things were different", he said.
I walked to the living room and sat down. I flipped through the channels on our tv. A woman walked in.
"Hello, I'm Ana. I just came to drop off the things you need", she said.
"Dean Ambrose", I said.
"Miss Lucia is home. Mr. Graves wanted me to tell you", she said.
"Thanks", I said.
I turned off the tv and ran to the house. Going up to Lucia's room. Graves and Corbin at her door. I glared at Graves. Knocking on the door. It swung open. She smiled at me. I went in. She closed the door behind me.
"Hi to you too", she said.
"Why didn't you let me go with you? I gave Graves specific orders not to leave without me", I yelled.
"First off, he works for me. Secondly, I told him not to wake you and third calm the fuck down", she yelled.
"Don't tell me to calm down. What if something happened to you?", I yelled.
"I'm fine, these guys have worked here longer than you. I trust them", she yelled.
"Lucia", I growled and paced her room.
I heard her sigh. She stopped me from pacing. Her hands gripped my shoulders and she shook me lightly.
"Relax please, I'm okay. I'm sorry, I just wanted to let you sleep. Dean, please understand I'll be okay if I leave with Graves's team", she said.
Her hands cupped my face. I rested mine on top of hers.
"I just don't want anything to happen to you", I whispered.
"It won't", she said.
I nodded and sighed.
"Okay", I said.
She kissed my cheek. Feelings running through me. I wanted to hold her close.
"Are you okay now?", she asked.
"Yeah", I nodded.
She nodded.
"Good, you scared me a little there Ambrose", she said.
"Sorry Lucy", I said.
She smiled. Letting go of my face, her hands leaving mine.
"I like your dimples when you smile", she said.
"I'll try to do it more often when I'm around you then", I winked at her.
"Good", she replied.
"I'll leave you then, call me if you need me Snow White", I said.
"I will, promise. This time I will", she said.
"I'm keeping you to that", I said.
"I don't want you to freak again", she said smiling.
I winked at her.
"Dean", she said, stopping me.
"Yeah?", I asked.
"Apologize to Corey", she said.
I nodded. Closing her door, I looked at Graves.
"Sorry for yelling at you. You were just doing your job", I said to him.
"Next time I'll call. Its just, she gave me orders and I had to follow them", he said.
"I know", I said.
I patted his back before going back to the guest house.
