"What if she doesn't talk to me?" Roman asks to both of his best friends.

"You won't know until you try." Seth answers reassuringly.

Dean and Seth stand back as Roman knocks on the door.

His heart breaks as he sees Desi opening the door. Red, puffy eyes. Clearly she hadn't slept either.

Desi gasps as she opened the door.

"Roman. Wh... What are you doing here?" she asks quietly.

"I'm sorry Dez. God, I am so sorry. I don't expect you to forgive me. Hell I wouldn't forgive me, but I am incredibly sorry. I'm ashamed of how I've been acting."

Roman, pulls the fries, and shake out from behind his back to give her.

"I don't think that this is actually going to earn your forgiveness, but I thought it might be a start. I also brought these two idiots." he says throwing his thumb behind his back.

A teary eyed Desi stars crying even more. Shaking her head.

"They can't be here. Roman, I'm sorry for hurting you, I never should've..."

"No. Desi, I shouldn't have. I shouldn't have made you feel like I did. Am I happy about the three of you? No, but I love you and all I want is for you to be loved and happy. And if these two idiots are the ones that do that, then so be it. Just know that if they hurt you... I will destroy them."

"Roman, I can't risk losing you."

" Oh Dez." Roman wraps his arms around me. "You won't lose me. I promise. I know I've been an ass and no amount of apologies is going to make that better, but I'll spend the rest of our lives trying make it up to you little sister."

"Why don't you get your stuff and head to the hotel with us. You guys can talk there." Roman says as he lets her go.

The guys are silent on the way to the hotel.

"I'm going to head to my room. Dez, I really am sorry. Maybe we can get breakfast together in the morning? All four of us. Got to get used to seeing you guys together." Roman says as we head towards the elevators.

"That'd be great." I wrap my arms around him, grateful for him coming to find me.

"I love you Dez."

"I love you too Roman."

After our elevator doors close, the silence makes me anxious.

"You guys, I'm sorry about leaving."

Nothing. They look at each other, then back to the door.

"Really? Nothing. Look I get that your pissed that I ran after I promised not to, but come on. Yell at me, tell me hate me, anything."

"Not here Desi. We'll talk when we get to the room." Seth finally replies as we reach our floor and the doors open.

I look at the ground as we make our way to our room. I feel like I'm being led to an execution. My execution. Or maybe just the end of what we had.

Dean opens the door followed by Seth. As soon as we enter the room and the door closes, I turn to try to explain why I did what I did. I open my mouth to speak only to be cut off by Dean.

"Don't. Don't speak. Clothes off. Now."

The look in his eyes is scary, but I feel safe with the two of them. I know they wouldn't hurt me. I know whatever they have in mind for me will be safe.

Hearing his command, the darkness of his voice actually warms me.
