Chapter 6

About 1pm, Roman came to Dean, and Seth to see if they are ready for lunch. Dean was ready to go. Seth, and Roman laughed. "What?" Dean said. "I'm hungry." He continued. But really Dean was excited because he gets to spend some alone time with Seth, and Roman. No Randy. He was happy about that. They all got up, and left.

They headed down to the lobby of the building. Dean, and Seth thought they were going to go to a restaurant around the area. Roman stopped them both. "No, we're not eating around here." Roman said smiling. Then Roman seen the corporate limo pull up. "Stephanie is treating us lunch today at her favorite restaurant." Roman continued to say. Dean looked at Roman wide eyed. "You mean that French restaurant." Dean squealed. "Yes." Roman laughed. Seth looked at them both weird.

Dean explained to Seth there's this French Bistro that Stephanie just loves, and it's real exclusive. And the waiting list is eight months. But Stephanie helped them with a problem, and since then she gets in right away. Dean couldn't remember the name, plus it's French. He wouldn't know how to pronounce it anyways.

They pull up to the restaurant, Dean was like a little kid in a candy store. He had been here a few times with Stephanie, and he loved it!

All three were taken to the table that Stephanie usually sat at. It was in the back, and hidden. Dean realized they would be away from the other customers. The only person that would be in contact with, is the waiter. Dean's heart just skipped a few beats.

They all sat down. Dean, Seth, and Roman looked at their menus. Dean actually knew what he wanted. He usually gets the same thing anyways. Actually the waiter knows Dean. The filet migon. Seth, and Roman ordered the same thing, and ordered drinks. Roman, and Seth told Dean what happened in the video conference, and then Roman let them both in on what happened when it was just him, and Stephanie.

Dean just realized he is sitting between Roman, and Seth. And their knees were all touching. Seth on one side, and Roman the other. But the table is big enough to have space between them. But Dean isn't going to say anything. He liked the touching.

Then Seth turned to Dean, and asked him about him when he was young. What his parents were like. Dean looked down, and frowned. Dean didn't like talking about his parents. "Um, there really isn't much to tell." Dean said softly. "My dad, my real dad died when I was real young so I don't really remember him." Dean continued. "Then my mom remarried." Then Dean changed the subject. Seth, and Roman caught that. They wanted to know about Dean, but they didn't press about it. Not now. When he is more comfortable.

Their food came, and talked about other things. They laughed, and talked. Dean had so much fun with Seth, and Roman. Then Roman excused himself to go to the bathroom. Dean was there with Seth alone.

Then before Dean knew what was happening, Seth leaned in, and kissed Dean softly on the lips. Dean moaned. Dean opened for Seth. Seth took it as an opening, and stuck in his tongue into Dean's mouth. Then Seth wrapped his arms around Dean and pulled him in more to the kiss. Dean moaned a little louder. Their tongues dancing in each other's mouths. Dean did not want this to end. He loved the taste of Seth. And wanted more. So much more! Then Dean started to think about Roman. What would Roman taste like? Dean wanted both!

Then Dean heard Roman coming. Dean broke the kiss, and wiped his mouth. He tried to act casual. Roman sat down. "So what did you guys talk about while I was gone?" Roman asked. "Nothing." Dean replied quickly. Then Dean looked down, and continued to eat his food.

Dean thought Roman wouldn't like what Seth, and him did. Blame him, and leave the firm. So he acted like nothing happened.

Roman gave them the corporate credit card to pay the bill. It was later than they all thought. And by the time they got back to the office, everyone had left to go home.

Dean watched Seth, and Roman leave to go down the elevator. Dean went to his desk, and got some papers he told Stephanie he would go over for her. Then he left.

Dean thought about the kiss between him, and Seth. He closed his eyes, trying to remember everything about it. How soft Seth's lips are, how his mouth tasted, his breath, his hands on his back. Dean wanted to burn that memory in his mind.

Now home to Randy. Dean kept thinking about everything between him, and Randy. He did realize he isn't happy, and he hasn't in a long time. And things need to change. Dean knew he would always say that, and he would do nothing, and stay with him. But Dean meant it this time. He would give Randy until a certain date. If he doesn't change, he's going to Stephanie, and ask her for a transfer. He would hate to leave Stephanie. Or could change offices. They do have more than one office here. Then he could stay with Stephanie, but away from Randy.

To even help him to through with it this time, he phoned Stephanie. He told her he would like to talk to her tomorrow in the morning when she got here. He told her why. Stephanie sounded happy. She said she would help him. After a few more minutes, he hung up the phone.

Dean smiled. By doing that, it felt like a ton of weight was lifted off his shoulders. He was actually going to go through with it this time. Now to go home. He wasn't going to tell Randy. He knew if he did, Randy would do everything to stop him. Promise him he would change. And he would, for a little while, then it would get back to normal. Not this time.

This time he is going to leave…
