 Dean returned to Roman's room, he was so angry and hurt that they were all willing to give up on Roman like that! He went to Roman and sat taking his hand, he began to cry silently, despite his anger.

 "Still sleeping huh Ro? I think you've slept long enough lazyass! Ro, please you need to wake up! We had a family meeting with Dr. Richardson, all of us were there and...they want to take you off  life support Ro, if you don't wake up! I told them they couldn't, I won't let them do it, I know you're in there somewhere and I refuse to give up on you! You gotta fight Ro, fight harder than you ever have, prove to them how strong you are! I love you Roman, you're my brother and I can't lose you, it'll rip me apart! Please Ro, open your damn eyes!" Dean begged, as he laid his head on Roman's chest and sobbed. 


 10 minutes later Dean calmed down and decided to keep himself occupied by washing Roman's hair. As he stood up the door opened, he turned to find their family, he starred at them angrily no one spoke at first until Dean did.

 "What do you want? Come to try and convince me to kill my brother?" 

 "Dean, be reasonable will you? Don't you think this hurts us as much as it does you?" Seth said upset.

 "No, I don't! Do you know why?" Dean answered. "I'm the only one who refuses to give up on Roman! He will wake up, and if he has brain damage, I don't care! I'll spend the rest of my damn life taking care of him, because that's what families do dammit! He'd do the same thing I' am for any one of us dammit, and all of you know it!" Dean said so angry.

 "Dean, we..."

 "Save it! I don't want to hear anymore okay? Just leave, get the hell out!" Dean said cutting Sika off.

 "Dean, please don't..."

 "I said go dammit! Leave now!" Dean demanded cutting Seth off this time.

 "Okay." Seth said sadly, as they left.


 Dean angrily went into the bathroom to get the stuff to wash Roman's hair. No one had noticed Roman had woken up and had heard the entire fight. He was so confused by what he had heard, Dean had been so angry towards the rest of their family, and Dean never was! His thoughts were interrupted by Dean returning to the room, he was carrying shampoo, a bowl of water and a towel. He was mumbling to himself as he put everything down, he still hadn't noticed Roman yet, until he turned to face him.

 "Ro?" Dean said quietly, frozen in place. "Am I dreaming?" Dean asked, Roman couldn't answer because of the tube in his throat, so he smiled weakly, seeing that made Dean smile. "Welcome back big guy! I'll go get the doctor!"


 Dean rushed into the hall, to find their family talking to Dr. Richardson. Seeing Dean rush into the hall they all became concerned, he spoke smiling.

 "You can cancel the funeral! Ro's awake!" Dean announced, as everyone quickly followed Dean back inside.

 "Mr. Reigns, welcome back! I want to do a quick exam, then we can remove the tube okay?" Dr. Richardson said smiling, Roman nodded.

 "We'll be right outside!" Dean said, as he kissed Roman's forehead.


 Dean went into the hallway, followed by the rest of the family. He stood near the door, his back to them as he anxiously bit his nails. 15 minutes later Dr. Richardson came out smiling, she finally had good news for them.

 "Well?" Dean asked impatiently.

 "His vitals are strong, and the exam went good, I removed the tube and he's doing quite well! As can be expected he has no memory of the night of the accident, but he does remember everyone and everything else. I want to run some more tests tomorrow to check his brain function, but I believe he's fine and will be okay!" She explained.

 "I told you he'd pull through this!" Dean said rubbing it in.

 "Dean, we..."

 "Can we see him?" Dean asked ignoring Seth.

 "Of course, I'll be back in an hour." She said shaking their hands before she left.


 Once gone Dean went back inside, the others followed. He hugged Roman before distancing himself from the rest of the family. As Roman hugged everyone he noticed the tension, and decided to find out what the hell was going on. He decided to talk to everyone together...minusDean. Once he found out their side, he'd talk to Dean and hopefully fix this, he hated his family fighting.

 "Dean, I'm kind of hungry. Could you go grab me something please?" Roman asked.

 "Uh, yeah, sure! Anything special?" He asked grabbing his keys and wallet from his jacket.

 "Nope, anything's good! You know what I like!" Roman answered smiling.

 "You got it big man!" Dean said smiling.

 "Thanks D!" Roman said, as Dean left without saying goodbye to the others.   "Okay, now that he's gone, does someone want to tell me what the hell is going on?"
