Chapter 27
Roman woke up to the alarm going off. He looked over to Dean, but he seen he wasn't there. In fact, he wasn't in bed at all. Where could he be? He slowly got sat up in bed. He rubbed his eyes, letting his eyes focus on the room. Then he heard the door open to the bathroom. "Good morning Ro." Dean said happily.
Roman smiled. He's happy that Dean is in a better mood today. "Today is a good day." Dean exclaimed. "Seth gets out of the hospital, and bet he's ready to." Dean continued. "Yeah, he probably is. Wouldn't doubt if he's already dressed and waiting for us to pick him up." Roman said laughing.
Dean laughed to. Roman got up and went over to Dean and circle his arms around Dean's waist. "It's so good to hear you laugh again. You got that sparkle back." Roman said to Dean. "Yeah, I've been in a dark place lately, and I'm sorry. I've been there for so long, I didn't know how to get out of it. But you, Seth and everyone has been there for me, helping me get out of that dark place. I realize I'm letting them win if I crumble. So no more. I'm not looking in the past. That's gone. You and Seth are my future, and that is what I'm looking towards…my future." Dean explained.
"Hey, I understand. We are here for you." Roman said. Then he kissed his neck. "Let's go get Seth before we get a phone call saying Seth has escaped the hospital." Roman laughed. Dean laughed with him. While Roman is getting dressed, Dean went across the hall to check on Phil.
Phil was almost done getting dressed when he heard a knock on his door. "Come in." Phil said loudly. Dean poked his head through the door. "Hey, I was wondering if you were up." Dean said with a smile on his face. Then stepping into Phil's room. He shut the door and leaned up against it.
"Look at you. All smiles, happy. Like it's a new you." Phil said with a smile. "Yeah, Seth comes home today, and I figure why be so sad. I have great friends, two wonderful boyfriends that I'm going to have children with. I'm not going to let anyone ruin that…ruin my happiness. I deserve to be happy." Dean told Phil.
Roman stood outside Phil's door and heard what Dean said. He smiled. Dean is starting to accept that he does deserve to be happy. Dean is becoming a stronger person. Roman composed himself, then he knocked on Phil's door. Dean opened the door and smiled. He let Roman in. Roman then hugged Dean. "I'm so proud of you Dean." Roman whispered. Dean hugged him back.
Phil cleared his throat. "Do you want me to step outside for a minute?" Phil asked. "Sorry. No. We can pick up Seth, and go for a late breakfast. He'll probably want some real food." Roman said. Dean and Phil laughed. "We can relate to that." Dean laughed. "Hospital food isn't exactly what you call great cuisine." Phil chimed in. "After a while, I'd leave to get Dean and me some real food outside of the hospital." Phil continued. Roman laughed. He could picture that. "Come on, let's save Seth. He's probably wondering where we are at." Roman continued. Roman and Dean left so Phil can finish getting ready. All he had to do is put on a shirt and his shoes.
As Phil came down the stairs he seen Roman and Dean waiting for him outside in the car. He had to laugh. Dean looked like a little kid. Sitting in the back, with a huge smile on his face. Roman in the front trying to be composed, but Phil knows he's just as excited to get Seth. He just hides it better.
Phil went to the driver side, got in, started the car and drove off. This time around, Dean is more talkative. Dean and Roman talked about baby names, how to decorate the room. Since they'll probably share a room for at least a year together. But after that, they will need rooms of their own. Especially since one of the babies is a girl.
Before they know it, they were at the hospital. They all got out and went inside. And there was Seth sitting on the edge of his bed waiting for them to pick him up. He looked upset. "What's wrong pup?" Roman asked. "I can't leave until the doctor sees me." Seth said gloomily. Everyone laughed. Seth didn't think it was funny. "I don't know how you did it Dean. Being in the hospital as long as you were. How did you not go crazy?" Seth asked. "Well, I had a great nurse who let me have visitors, and had Phil. He kept me company, and from going insane." Dean said as he winked at Phil.
"Not fair." Seth pouted. They laughed again. Then a few minutes longer, the doctor came in and talked to Roman and Dean. "He's pretty much good to go, but here is some pain medication in case he gets any pain. Just glad the SUV nicked you. If it would have hit you head on, you probably wouldn't be here now." The doctor said. "I know. Was lucky to see it when it was coming at me. Boy, being on the track team helped." Seth said. Then he got up and walked out.
Roman, Dean and Phil thanked the doctor and went to catch up to Seth, who was at the elevator waiting for them. "Anyone hungry?" Asked Seth. "I'm starving." He continued. "Yeah, we figured you would be." Roman said back.
They went to the car and drove to a dinner and had breakfast. "So, what has been happening since I was in the hospital?" Seth asked them. "Nothing much." Dean and Roman said at the same time.
"Can we talk about decorating the nursery?" Dean asked excitedly. "Yeah, we can baby boy." Roman said. "Has anyone have any ideas?" Roman continued. Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.
"Maybe when I go over to Stephanie's tomorrow, I can ask her if she has any ideas or can recommend anyone." Dean said. "Oh and before I forget, on Monday, I have an appointment with Dr. Reed." Dean told them. "Sorry, it slipped my mind with what everything that has been going on." He went on. "Great. We can come with you. We want to be with you every step of this pregnancy." Seth said. Dean smiled and blushed.
As they got up from the table, Dean's phone rang. "It's William. I don't want to answer it." Dean said scared. Phil went over and grabbed his phone and answered it. He didn't say anything. He just let William talked, not knowing he was talking to Phil. Then when William got done, then Phil responded. "I don't know William, you're not my type." Phil said. Then he heard, actually everyone heard William yell thru the phone. Everyone laughed. Then Phil hung up. "Let's go home." Seth said. Then he and everyone got into the car and left.
After running errands and looking for baby items, they were all tired. By the time they got home, it was late. This time Roman carried Dean, and Phil carried Seth up the bedroom. Phil said goodnight to Roman, and went to his room. Roman looked at both of his sleeping beauty's. He pulled Seth over a little more, then pushed Dean more towards the middle, and Roman took the other side. He didn't bother with the clothes. It's not like they are going to wear what they have on anyways. Then in a few minutes, he was fast asleep.
Phil sat in bed. He did some paperwork and checked up on one AJ Lee. Dean gave him access to her profile on the law firms' computer site. Then before Phil knew it, he was asleep.
Stephanie was seething. William is not going to cause trouble for Dean. Since this happened, she's put that number into her phone. She called it.
The other side picked up.
"Hello." The voice said.
"Now." Stephanie said.
"Okay." The voice said back, then they hung up.
Stephanie hung up the phone. After tonight, no more William. Now, just Randy, Steve and Kyle. She thought for a bit. Then she thought of how to handle Randy, but she will need Paul's help for this. She has an idea, but she'll have to put it on hold for now. Then she left to go fix dinner Paul and Aurora.
The alarm went off. Roman looked at it. 8 Am. Who the hell set it for eight? Then he remembered Dean set it before they left to pick up Seth yesterday. Dean grabbed the clock from Roman, then shot up right away. "SHIT!" Dean yelled. "I have to be ready to go at 10am. The car Stephanie's sending is going to be here at 10am sharp." Dean said hurriedly. Roman got off the bed, and watched Dean struggle to get up from the low sitting bed. Roman just smiled. He watched Dean scoot over to the edge of the bed and push himself off. But it was difficult for Dean. It probably would have been easier if Dean is pregnant with just one or maybe two, but three? Roman bent down and helped Dean up. "What time is your appointment on Monday?" Asked Roman. "Oh, I think 10am. But I'll have to check to be sure. I can ask Dr. Reed tonight. She's going to be there." Dean said as he walked into the bathroom. "She is?" Roman asked.
"Yes, Stephanie and she are great friends. Think since college." Dean told Roman. "Stephanie and I have almost the same appointment. Mine is at 10am, and think hers is at 9:30am." Dean continued. "Okay. I want to take the day off or at least part of the day to come with you. Think Seth will want to also." Roman said to Dean.
"Zzzzzzzzz. Snort." Roman looked around and seen who made that noise. It was Seth. Roman just rolled his eyes. How could he sleep thru all what is going on? But knowing Seth, he probably didn't get much sleep in the hospital, and making up for it now. Then Roman got an evil smile on his face. He went to the bathroom and opened the door. Dean is already in the shower. Roman watched Dean thru the glass shower walls. He was so temped to go into the shower. Watching him lather up his body, his beautiful body. Even with the pregnancy, Dean still looked gorgeous. His pink lips, and he can see his muscles in his arms, his messy hair slicked back, his plump ass jiggling enough to give Roman an erection. Roman got the luke-warm water in the cup and left. He went over to Seth and carefully placed his hand in the water, and stepped back.
Dean seen Roman come in. He was hoping he would join him. But then seen him leave. Is he not attractive anymore? He grabbed a towel, and dried himself off. What is he going to do? Dean is thinking second thoughts about him moving in. Maybe he'll stay at his apartment. He finished drying and went out. As he was coming out, he heard shouting.
"Damn it Roman! That wasn't funny!" Seth yelled. He ran past Dean and shut the door. "What happened?" Dean said quizzidly. "I put his hand in some water." Roman laughed. "That's what you get for snoring too loud." Roman shouted towards the door.
"You okay baby boy?" Roman asked Dean. "Yeah, just tired." Dean replied. Then Dean went over to the closet and pulled out his nice clothes that Roman got for him. They were waiting when they got home last night. Dean kept them in the suit bag to keep them nice. He's not going to wear them over there. He'll put them on before the party. He then went over to the dresser and pulled out a pair of sweatpants and one of Roman's t-shirts. "I'll just eat over there." Dean told Roman.
By the time Dean got everything ready that he needed, the car is there to pick him up. Good ol' Stephanie. Always on time. Dean thought. I'll see you guys over there. Then before Roman could say good-bye and give him a kiss, Dean was out the door. Roman was a little disappointed he didn't get to kiss Dean Good-bye. He watched Dean ride off.
Roman got his phone and called Stephanie. "Hey Steph. It's Roman. Would you mind if Seth and I come over early? Dean seemed a little down, and like to talk to him before the guests come. Thanks, I really do appreciate it. What time would be good? Around noon? Yeah, that's fine. You don't mind us coming over that early? Thanks again. See you in a few hours." Roman said. Then he hung up the phone. "Who were you talking to? Asked Seth. "Stephanie. She's letting us come over early to talk to Dean." Roman replied back. "When Dean left here, he seemed…I don't know disappointed." Roman sighed as he ran his fingers thru his hair.
"Go take a shower, and we can go have some breakfast. Maybe do some last minute shopping for Aurora." Seth suggestioned. "Sounds good. And maybe get something for Dean." Roman added. "That sounds good." Seth said as he wrapped his arms around Roman and gave him a kiss.
Dean finally made it to Stephanie's' place. The driver helped Dean out of the car. Stephanie opened the door, and before she could say anything, Aurora came out running to Dean. "Uncle Dean!" Aurora screeched. "Hey munchkin." Dean said to her. "Happy Birthday." He whispered in her ear, then gave her a kiss on the cheek.
"You gotten big." Aurora said as she poked at Dean's stomach. "Aurora!" Stephanie yelled. "That wasn't nice. Apologize to Dean." Stephanie kept yelling. "I'm sorry Uncle Dean." Aurora said. "It's okay." Dean said as he messed up her hair. Then he walked into the house. "Roman and Seth will bring her gifts. This way they'll stay wrapped." Dean whispered to Stephanie. "That's fine. How are you?" Stephanie asked. "Fine." Dean said quietly. But before he could continue, Stephanie told him that Roman called as he left their house.
Dean looked and seen Aurora nearby. Stephanie knew Dean didn't want her to hear. "Let's go into my office here." Stephanie suggested. Dean knew the way. He's been to her house before. He would come here when he and Randy would get into one of their fights. He walked into her office.
"I don't think Roman and Seth find me attractive anymore. Ever since we found out I am pregnant, neither one has really touched me. Only kissed, but nothing beyond that. Am I that ugly that they don't want nothing to do with me? I know we can still have sex even though we are pregnant." Dean said to Stephanie.
Stephanie could see Dean is upset about this. She knows how he feels. When she was pregnant with Aurora, Paul didn't touch her for a while. But then she found out it was because he didn't want to her hurt and the baby. But she had Paul talk to Dr. Reed, and after that everything was great. "Have you told Seth and Roman this?" Stephanie asked. "No." Dean replied back. "You should. They might think if you guys get intimate, they might hurt you and the baby. Guys are different from woman. But this is all new to you three. You need to communicate with them Dean. I know Randy and William have messed you up. But you have to remember, they are not Randy and William. Roman and Seth love you, and only you. Remember that. They don't want nothing to happen to you or the babies." Stephanie said to Dean. "Have you thought about going to see someone about what happened between you, Randy and William? You might want to talk to someone. A third neutral person. And I know a doctor that can help you. His name is Dr. Damien Sandow. He's really good. He helped me after I met you. My parents sent me to him, and he helped. He even said meeting you was the start of my healing process." Stephanie told Dean. "I never knew." Dean whispered.
"I like to keep things bottled up to. But I've learned what to tell Paul, you, my parents, everyone else, and what to keep to myself. You have to have a balance in your life. He'll be here tonight if you want to meet him. You can get to know one another then this way you won't be so uncomfortable." Stephanie said. "Yes, that sounds good." Dean agreed. Stephanie seen Dean smile and relax more. "Good. Now let's go find some of my baby books, and about that pillow. You'll definitely need that very soon. Since you are getting bigger than me." Stephanie said with a smile. They both got up and left the office. "Where are we going?" Dean asked. "To my bedroom." Stephanie answered back.
Dean stopped. "It's where I have everything." Stephanie laughed. They went to her bedroom.
Paul walked into his bedroom and seen his wife Stephanie and Dean on the bed. He stopped. They both were laying on their sides reading books. Probably the pregnancy books she said is loaning him. "Hey, how's it going?" Paul said. Paul knows Dean is gay. Even if he wasn't, he still probably wouldn't be jealous. There's just something about Dean. Hell, he even liked the guy. And there's isn't many men he actually likes. Paul is just very cautious. He doesn't know what to think about Roman and Seth. What Randy told him, it doesn't seem right. Paul likes to meet people and make his own judgement. He doesn't go by what other people say. Maybe except his wife. She really has good instinct.
Stephanie looked up and said hi. Dean had a nervous look on his face. "Sorry Mr. Helmsley." Dean stammered. "Why are you sorry Dean? And please call me Paul." Paul said smiling. It is a warm smile. Dean could tell it was genuine. "Just being on your bed." Dean said more. Paul chuckled. "It's okay Dean. Stephanie respects you and says nothing but good things about you. She's happy, then I'm happy." Paul continued. "Just wondering, how does it feel to be pregnant?" Paul asked. "It is kind of weird. I can feel movement in my stomach I never thought I would ever feel." Dean explained.
"Well, I let you two get back what you were doing. I have some work to get done before the party." Paul said. He changed his clothes and grabbed some paperwork from his briefcase and left. Stephanie could see Dean is confusion on his face. "Don't worry Dean. Even if you weren't gay, he would still trust me and you. He knows you wouldn't try anything. You're not the type. You're very sweet." Stephane told him. Dean smiled. They were both right. Even if he is straight, he would never do that to Stephanie and Paul. They both been good to him. Paul even agreed to have him as godfather to Aurora.
They went back to the books and talking about what else to expect during his pregnancy. "Have you decided about decorating the nursery?" Stephanie asked. "No." Dean told her.
"I know someone. You know him." Stephanie said. "Who?" Dean asked. "Tyler Breeze." Stephanie replied. "Tyler Breeze? Really? He's really good, but also expensive!" Dean exclaimed. "My treat." Stephanie told him. "He would love to do it! He's actually never done a gay family before. He would be ecstatic!" Stephanie kept saying. "That will be great! Thank-you Stephanie!" Dean yelled. Then hugged her.
"Before I forget, could I invite someone to the party? She helped me in the shelter I was in. Besides you, she was the closest I have to a mother. But you are more…a mother, sister, and girlfriend." Dean rambled on. "I don't mind. In fact, I would love to meet her." Stephanie responded. "Plus, I would love her to meet Brock." Dean smiled. "What are you up to?" Stephanie asked. Dean just shrugged and smiled. Stephanie smiled and shook her head.
Dean got out his phone and called her. He is glad she can make it. He wants his family to meet her. And she's been wanting to meet Roman and Seth since he told her about them. Dean didn't know what he would have done if it wasn't for Father O'Malley and her. And he knows she would be perfect for Brock.
Dean had all the things that Stephanie gave him in a bag next to the door. He can't wait for Roman and Seth to come. It is about time for everyone to start coming. He knows Randy is coming and he's bringing William. He'll try to stay away from them both. He knows he'll be well protected.
He is sitting on the couch when he heard the first of the party guests. It was Nattie, AJ, Tyson, and Cesaro. Dean tried to get up, but couldn't fast enough. "Don't worry Dean. We'll come to you." AJ said as she skipped over. He missed AJ. He missed all of them. "Boy, someone is getting big." Cesaro said. "Cesaro!" Nattie yelled. "It's okay Nattie." Dean laughed. "Do you want to feel?" Dean asked. Nattie and AJ looked at each other, then they reached out and touched Dean's stomach. They felt the babies move. They both laughed and giggled. "Uh oh. Someone is getting baby fever." Cesaro said to Tyson.
Tyson looked at Nattie and he could see it on her face. But for some reason, he wouldn't mind. He smiled at her. They could try now. They've tried before, but nothing happened. So they stopped. Maybe now, try again. "Hey Cesaro. When are you going to settle down?" Nattie asked. Cesaro got real nervous. "Drinks. Be right back. Need one." Cesaro said. Then left. Nattie and AJ laughed.
More and more guests arrive. Dean anxiously waited for Seth, Roman and Phil to come. He heard the doorbell rang and he finally managed to get up and went over. He opened the door hoping it was them. But instead he seen two men he's never seen before. Two men were standing at the front door. One is really tall. Maybe over 7ft. tall, and had a goatee and the other is tall, not as tall as the other man. Maybe 6'9-6'10, and both were bald.
"Hi. I'm Detective Paul Wright and this this is my partner, Detective Glenn Kane. We're looking for a Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley." Det. Paul said. Dean let them in. Dean went over to Stephanie and whispered to her that two detectives are here to see her. She went over. "Det. Wright and Det. Kane. What can I do for you?" Stephanie asked. "Maybe you can help us. We're looking for a Dean Ambrose. Do you know where he is?" Det. Wright asked. "Yes, I do." Stephanie replied back. "You do? Where?" Det. Kane asked this time. "Yes, he's standing right here next to me. This is Dean." Stephanie said as she pointed to Dean who was next to her.
"You're Dean Ambrose?" Det. Wright asked. "Yes. Why? Did something happened to Roman or Seth?" Dean asked scared. "No. We're here because of a William Regal. He's missing. And he named you on the phone when he called the police." Det. Kane said. "What?" Dean said. "That's impossible." Dean continued to say.
Dean then left to go into Stephanie's office. They all followed him. "Where were you this morning say around 8am?" Det. Wright asked. "I was at home. With Roman and Seth." Dean answered back. "Who are Roman and Seth?" Det. Wright asked. "They are my boyfriends." Dean responded.
Both detectives looked at each other. "You have two boyfriends?" They asked at the same time. "Yes." Dean responded. "What is with this questioning?" Asked Stephanie.
"This morning, the police dispatch got a call from a Mr. William Regal calling saying someone is in his home. Then he called out your name Mr. Ambrose. Dean, then there is a scuffle, some yelling and then nothing. Then it sounds like someone picks up the phone and then there is a laugh then the dial tone. We found the number for Randy Orton, and he told us that Dean and William been having problems. Then we found some of these pictures." Det. Kane said. "Yes, we have been having problems, but I would never do anything to him." Dean said upset. Then they handed Dean some pictures of him with William and some with Randy, William and Dean. Dean is embarrassed.
"William is blackmailing me. I left Randy, and Randy shared me with William. But they were mad when I left. Then I met Roman and Seth. We became close, and now I'm moving in with them." Dean explained.
"What? Now he won't let you go, so you did something to him?" Det. Kane said angrily. "No! As much I hate William, I still would never do anything to him. He threatened me with those pictures…" Then Dean stopped and broke down. "Where is he?" Det. Kane asked. "Kane, calmed down." Det. Wright said.
Then he turned to Dean. "Do you know where he is?" Det. Wright asked. "No, I don't." Dean whispered. "Where were you today? Besides Roman and Seth as your alibis, who else can say where you were?" Kane asked.
"I was at home until 10am, I came over here, and been here ever since." Dean responded. Then Stephanie's husband Paul came in. He has been listening by the door. Paul picked up the pictures and looked at them. Now what Randy has been telling him were all lies. He didn't think Dean would do anything. But now, he knows Randy could. Things are going to change with Randy at the office come Monday morning.
"Say no more Dean." Paul said. "Who are you?" Kane asked. "Paul Helmsley. Stephanie's husband, and now Dean's lawyer." Paul answered them back. "Dispatch got the call about 3am. Where were you Dean?" Det. Wright asked. "I was sleeping." Dean is telling them.
"How do we know you didn't leave during the night…?" Det. Wright was asking. "Dean is in no condition to go over and fight with William." Paul said to them. "How do you know?" Kane sneered. "And what we've seen in the pictures, he's in very good shape." Kane mocked. Then gave Dean an evil smile. "For one, Dean is pregnant." Paul told them. "Excuse me?" Both Kane and Paul said at the same time. "Dean is pregnant. If you don't believe me, Dean can show you and we have his doctor here. Dr. Phyllis Reed. She's his OBGYN. He goes to the same doctor as my wife. She introduced them." Paul explained more.
Then there is a soft knock at the door. It is Roman, Seth and Phil. They all came in. "What's going on?" Seth asked. "Who are you?" Kane demanded. "I'm Seth, this is Roman. We're Dean's boyfriends." Seth responded. "And I'm Detective Phillip Brooks from the Eight-Five. Where are you two from?" Phil asked.
"Phil Brooks?" Det. Wright asked. He then looked at Kane. They know they are in trouble. Phil is a great cop, and they know his reputation. "Yes, that's me. And I want to know where you two from?" Phil asked again. "We're from the One-One-Five." Kane responded. "Well, I can say this. Dean did not leave. As well for Roman and Seth. They didn't leave either. I know what you guys are going too asked next. Remember, I'm a cop to. And that is one question I would ask to." Phil explained to them.
"I think you two need to talk to Detectives John Cena and Chris Jericho. They were looking into William. Someone tried to run over Seth Rollins and it was pointing to William. But they also found out William did many shady deals. Anyone from his dealings, can be the one who took him. One of deals could have went bad, and they came and finally collected from him." Phil explained more to them. Kane and Paul got up and left.
But before they went out the door, Paul spoke to them. "If you have any more questions for Dean, call me. Don't go to him. And trust me, I'm one person you don't want to fuck with." Paul whispered to them. Then walked back to them smiling.
"I know about those two. They have been investigated by I.A. They are friends with William Regal." Phil told everyone. "What?" They all said at the same time. "What about those pictures?" Dean asked. "What I got from them, those are the only ones they found." Paul said to Dean. "If there are more, they would have said something." Paul continued. "So what happened to William?" Dean asked. "I know he wouldn't just leave. What if he comes back?" Dean said nervously.
"The way they were talking, I don't think he's coming back." Phil responded. They all looked at Phil. "I wonder what happened." Roman questioned. "Hold on." Phil said. Then he left to go outside and made a phone call. After about fifteen minutes, Phil came back. "Okay. From what I got from my friend who works at I.A who is also investigating this, said that someone broke in. They did find little blood, but nothing that would suggest William died there. Some clothes and certain items are missing. So they think someone took him and then that is where they are confused. Why would they just take him, who would take him, where they took him and what are they going to do with him?" Phil went on with the questions.
"What certain items would they take?" Asked Paul. "Well, when they searched his home, they found his basement…and well, it was different…" Phil stopped and looked at Dean. Dean knew what Phil means. "Go ahead and tell them. They're going to find out anyways." Dean stuttered. Everyone knew Dean is getting upset. "They found many…sexual items and toys." Phil slowly said.
Dean got up and turned his back on them. Tears welling up in his eyes. Dean tried so hard to keep that from everyone, especially from Roman and Seth.
Roman and Seth went over to him and wrapped their arms around him. "We don't care about what happened in the past. You are not that person anymore." Seth choked out. Dean looked at Seth with tears in his eyes. Then he turned and looked at everyone. He didn't know what to say or do. He opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came out. Stephanie came running over. "Dean, I…we are here for you. You took care of me, now I'm going to take care of you. We all are. You are not alone in this. Not only does Roman and Seth love you, I love you. Nattie, Tyson, AJ, Cesaro, even Nikki and Brie love you. They've been keeping an eye on you for me. Randy wouldn't think to suspect them. You made an impact in all our lives." Stephanie rambled on.
Then Paul came forward and stood in front of Dean. "Dean, I might not know you like my wife does. But thru my wife, I've learned a lot about you. You are a wonderful person who thinks of others before himself. I don't care about those pictures, or what's on those videos. And if anyone, and I mean ANYONE tries to use them against you in any way, they will have to deal with me." Paul said to Dean. "And don't worry about Randy. Leave him to me." Paul whispered. Then he winked at Dean, gave him a smile and patted him on the back.
Stephanie got up and went over to Dean and hugged him also. Dean is lucky to have such great friends and wonderful bosses.
"I didn't want to believe I could get myself into that situation again. And I really thought Randy loved me. I was young and didn't really know what love was at the time. Now, I do. I had people who believed in me for a while now and never noticed. I was trying to make Randy happy I forgot about me. Then I met two very wonderful people who showed me I am special and deserve to be happy. I know I've said it before, but I want everyone here me say it to you. I love you Roman and Seth. You made my life worth living and not give up." Dean choked out. Then Roman and Seth hugged Dean and kissed him on the cheeks. Dean held onto Roman and Seth very tight as they did him. It was very quiet in the room.
"Let's go out before the Bella sisters send a search party for us." Stephanie said as she broke the awkward silence. Everyone laughed. "And they will." Dean said. Everyone laughed. Then they all headed back to the party. Roman and Seth held Dean back. "Are you okay?" They asked at the same time. "Yes." Dean responded back. Stephanie talked me into seeing a doctor about my past, Randy, and what's going on now. At first I was thinking of not doing it, but now I know I need to." Dean managed to get out. They knew Dean is right, and this will help. "We will be there." Roman finished. Dean teared up and hugged them. Roman and Seth hugged him back and both gave him kisses on his cheeks. Then they left to join everyone else.
About forty-five minutes later, the doorbell rang. The butler went to Stephanie and told her she has a package at the door. The messenger said she has to sign for it.
After she signed for the package, she snuck into her office and looked at the package. She looked at it. She knew what it was and who it's from. She told him to send it to her like this…as a baby present. And in a way, it was a present to her. And as much she wants to open it, she had to get back to the party. She didn't want people coming in while she is looking at them. She put it in her drawer and locked it. Then she went back to her party…smiling.
