Roman's Angel

Chapter 32

They laid together on their bed, close to one another to keep warm. They bask in the afterglow of what they did, both worn out from the rough, pleasurable sex they had. Dean was on his side, his back turned to Roman, as the other boy laid gentle kisses upon his back, his hands cradling his bump.

"I love you." He whispers to him. "I want to stay like this with you for as long I can."

"Me too." Roman replies softly. "You know, I didn't think you would want me to still fuck you like that. Thought you would want to be more careful after getting pregnant."

"Well, of course I want to be careful but I don't want to stop doing the things we do together completely. Like, you can still choke me, tie me up, or cut me up. Just some other things we can't do."

"Speaking of choking..." Roman turns him over, looking down at his neck. There were marks forming on it, because he had his hand around Dean's throat a bit too tightly. "Sorry about that."

"Why are you saying sorry? I loved it."

"Yeah, I know. But I don't want to hurt hurt you. Like cause serious injury to you."

"You won't ever hurt me. Besides, I like wearing the bruises and cuts you leave on me. They remind me of you."

"Mm. Still have to hide those though. Can't let my mom see. And Seth also. He would flip."

Dean yawns, snuggling up into him. "And I thought you worried too much."

Roman chuckles at that, putting an arm him and pulling him in closer. He lays head against Dean's, closing his eyes, letting his worries be put to rest. He had a feeling that there was something up with Dean, something that had happened to him besides 'falling over'. He could see it in his eyes, hear it in his voice. And the way he begged to be fucked tonight, all the sweet, destructive things he wanted done to him. There was something that he wanted to forget. That he wasn't telling Roman. Roman hopes that he will but he won't force him to tell him. When he is ready he will. For now, all he can do is be there for Dean and make it all better again.

"So how did it go?" Seth asks. "Did you guys find out the gender of the baby?"

Roman and Dean had just made it to school, were sitting with Seth at lunch. They had an appointment with the doctor today to see how the baby was doing and also to find out the gender. Just recently this morning, Dean had felt the baby kicking for the first time too. He told Roman about it, who immediately placed his hands on his stomach, wanting to feel. Both of them were getting more excited for the arrival of their child.

"We're having a girl." Dean said, smiling.

"That's awesome! I'm so happy for you guys! Have you decided on any names for her?"

"We have, yes." Roman says, wrapping an around Dean. "We were thinking of naming her Cassie. We both thought it was a cute name."

"Aww. That is definitely a cute name. I can't wait to tell Finn. So, Dean. Can I tell Kenny the good news yet?"

"No," Dean shakes his head. "It is up to me to tell him, not you, Seth."

"Okay, I understand that. But you're going to have to tell him before the baby arrives. He is our friend and he deserves to know what is going on too."

"I know, it's just that...I'm scared of how he'll react. He's all accepting of me now and has proven himself to be a good friend, trusting person. I just still want to be careful. I don't want him to see me as a freak or anything."

"Don't worry about that. He won't think you're a freak."

"You can't know that for sure."

"Dean, baby," Roman squeezes his hand, getting his attention. "If you're going to trust him, you have to trust that he won't judge you for being pregnant."
