Disclaimer: I own nothing but the plot x

When coming for work the next day Randy called him over to the staff room and patted him on his back as a greeting.

Exchanging the usual small talk, before Randy told him the sad male nurse, he now found out his name was Tom, had left the facility without even giving notice. They'd checked his room, as all the other staff had their own little apartment just outside of the facility and everything was gone.

Seth found it a bit strange, but Randy seemed pretty cheerful about it all. Just as he was wondering why the other was sharing this gossip with him, Randy told him there was an oppertunity for Seth to get the apartment if he was interested.

Before Seth could say anything, Randy went on 'It's a really good deal man, cos you hardly pay any rent. The apartments a little old, but they're double glazed and everything and pretty big for one person.'

Seth nodded, letting the info sink in as Randy smirked at him. He managed a little smile back and nodded. 'Is there a contract or anything I can have a look at?' he said a little weakly and Randy let out a laugh, patting the other on his shoulder again. 'Yea sure man. I'll try and get it for you later today.'

He left Seth alone to continue doing his rounds, leaving Seth with his thoughts. He still couldn't make his mind up about Randy. He seemed like a nice guy when he spoke to him but he'd seen patients cower away from him and he'd seen him handle them quite rough himself. Seth felt his face heat up when he caught himself thinking of the other's voice. He couldn't deny he'd always liked deep, smooth voices in men. It was soothing to listen to, that wasn't a strange thought, right?

Sighing and moving to his cupboard to put on his overal, he got ready for another day, the thought of moving closer to work ghosting at the back of his mind.

When he was busy with some of the electrical sockets in an older part of the building, he heard footsteps behind him. Turning his head, he saw Dean and the strange event from last night came flooding back to Seth. Standing up, he gives the other a measured nod, stratching his hear a little.

'Cody said I somehow got out last night. I just wanted to say sorry if I said anything weird.' He sighed a little and avoided Seth's gaze. Narrowing his eyes some, Seth found it strange. Normally Dean held his gaze until it became awkward but now the blonde seemed to look everywhere but at him. Seth shrugged and turned back to his work. 'That's alright Dean. I couldn't make much sense of it anyway.' For a moment it looked as if Dean wanted to say something more, but he suddenly deflated and nodded again, twirling around on his heels and walking away.
Seth ran a hand through his hair, shaking his head at himself before focusing on his work again.

Near the end of the day Randy found him in his cupboard with the contracts and info packet for the apartments. Seth thanked him and the other shot him a smirk and a wink this time, leaving Seth sitting there feeling like a lemon.
In most ways Randy was very much what you'd call an alpha male type of guy. At first Seth thought he was just imagining things but he felt like the man was playfully flirting with him now and then. He had no idea how to respond to this. The other was handsome and even though Seth found it hard to remember anything concrete about past relationships, he had soon enough admitted to himself that he liked both guys and girls. But there was something that felt off about Randy that Seth couldn't put into words. Something looming in the shadows, waiting for the right oppertunity to strike.

He tried to take his mind off things by reading the contracts and he had to admit to himsel that he liked what he saw. The only down side was that he'd get put on the rota for night shifts, but on the upside they did pay extra. The apartment was also a lot bigger than the studio he now rented and a lot cheaper. He pursed his lips, fumbling around for a pen as he decided he didn't have a lot to loose.

The move went fast as Seth didn't own a lot of stuff and he got some unexpected help from Cody. The Bellas got him some house warming gifts he appreciated, but he wasn't really a flowers kind of guy. He still thanked them and was happy to get to know them a little better.

The apartment had a front view of the facility which wasn't too great, but the view from the bedroom was on the thick forest they where on the edge of. Seth stood on the little balcony, inhaling the night air as he listened to the sound of the wind rustling through the forest. He'd almost loved to be outdoors even since he was a kid. A flash of a nearly forgotten memory cut through his brain as he remembered a fishing trip with… friends? Family? It was gone as fast as it had come and he sighed, rubbing at his eyes tiredly.

Sometimes when he looked in the mirror, he wasn't sure who's eyes he was meeting there. It sounded strange and he had nothing to base it on, but he felt like huge chunks of his life where missing. He'd never bothered going to a doctor, because what good would they do?
He lost contact with his family a long time ago and had no false illusions about being welcomed back. His memory seemed to have at least kept up with current events ever since he'd gotten out of jail, so Seth haden't been too bothered.

Unable to sleep after such an eventful day Seth decided to do a stroll around to check the security even though he had the night off. He hoped it would distract him for a little while.

He frowned when he heard a little bit of commotion from the shared living room space block A and B shared during the day. Checking his watch, he figured it was almost time for them to head back to their rooms and he decided to quickly check it out.

Dressed in dark grey jeans and a maroon tshirt, cap on his head and his hair tied back, not everyone recognised him at once out of his work gear. But Dean did a comical little jump in the air, waving his hands around and letting out an excited 'Seth!' The blonde nearly jumped him and Seth let out a strangled laugh at the others excited state. He haden't seen the other like this before. Patting Dean on his back lightly, 'Allright, allright, whats going on guys?' he asked, looking around and seeing some garlands hangin from the wal land in the middle of the table sat a large bowl with what seemed to be decorated cupcaked in it.

Someone tugged at his sleeve and Dean slowly let go of him, smirk plastered on his face still. He looked down and met with AJ's sweet brown orbs, giving her a big smile.

'Seth, we heard you moved into the apartments so we wanted to surprise you!' she said in an excited high voice, motioning to the stuff they had put out. 'We thought you'd drop my tomorrow, but this is even better.'Her smile widened and her brown orbs reflected his own. He ruffled her hair lightly and thanked all of them for the gesture.

Everyone of the more cheerfull patients where there to give him a shy or too long hug and Seth welcomed it all. He felt his chest swell when they handed him a cupcake and insisted he ate it right away. He kept catching himself searching for Dean's eyes, smirking at the other now and then. Seth got everyone a drink of lemonade as they shared their sneaky evening snack. Most where excited like kids would be and it was endearing. Seth soon found himself standing next to Dean, finishing the last of his cupcake. Dean nughed him lightly by bumping their shoulders together. 'You make this place a little better, you know.' He said softly, eyes going serious for a moment as Seth blinked at him. 'For everyone.' He looked back at the others who where still laughing and rolling around and doing their own strange little things.

Seth couldn't find any words and just leaned a little more into Dean as they stood side by side, watching the rest. The other seemed to welcome his closeness and words weren't needed.

Ten minutes later Emma came in looking a little flustered at the events going on. She laughed though and gave Seth a peck on his cheek, welcoming him to the cray-cray family as she liked to call everyone. Seth and Dean helped clean up the livingroom as Emma started sending everyone off to bed. The little blonde thanked them before taking off again as she had more things to do. Seth figured she trusted Dean enough for him to make his way to his own bedroom.

They headed over to the glass door that led out towards a small brick road to the staff apartments. Seth opened it and stepped out, looking back at Dean who stayed standing in the doorframe. He felt a swirl of emotion in his stomach and swallowed. The sun was going down and the soft light was reflecting in Dean's sea blue eyes. He gave Seth a little smile, tilting his head to the side. Seth felt his mouth go dry and he blinked rapidly before he cleared his throat awkwardly. 'Good night Sethie,' the blonde said with a familar kindness in his voice that caught Seth off guard and he felt his breath hitch.

Dean turned around and left the other standing there. Seth called his name, but Dean didn't turn around if he'd heared him.

That night Seth woke up early in the morning, drenched in sweat and with a yell on his lips. He tried to calm himself down, his breath coming hard and fast. Shaking his head as if he could physcially shake off the dream, he groaned as his head pounded painfully.

Suddenly his eyes grew wide and he almost forgot to breathe for a second. A flash of his dream had come back to him. He tried to get off the bed, struggling with the blankets as he did so, rushing over to the bathroom on unstable feet.

He never spend a lot of time looking at himself in the mirror and he vaguely noted his beard was getting a bit big again. But the important thing right now, what he had dreamed of…

He turned around to lift the hem of his shirt, looking over his own shoulder and seeing i there as a wave of nausea hit him.

A tiny black triangle at the small of his back where his lumbar vertebrae started. He tried wiping over it with his fingers, but it felt like normal skin. Feeling panicked, remembering more of his dream and he felt more confused than ever before.

He'd been at a little tattoo parlor. The owner asian and he'd been there with two others. He could recall feeling the needle going in his skin as if he'd been really there. There'd been laughter and excitment and after him another had gone on the tattoo chair. When a deep, barritone voice had asked something Seth couldn't deceipher to the one in the chair, he'd lifted his head and Seth clearly remembered those sparkling blue eyes.

Dean.
