V & V - Rageous Rageon Rise

Quiet Angel

Roman POV:

Justin closes the bedroom door behind him and gives me a worried look.

Roman: "I'm sorry you had to see that. I... am sorry you were involved at all tonight after the night you've already had."

Justin: "Roman, I was not thinking about myself at all. My only concern was for you and RIVAL."

I nod, feeling stressed.

Justin: "Hey... Roman."

I look back at him, unsure what I can say.

Justin: "You... helped me after I had such a bad time tonight. Let me help you."

He takes my hand and walks me to my bed.

Justin: "What can I do? I want to help you relax."

Roman: "Well... I'd like to get ready for bed. Maybe have a glass of wine."

Justin: "How about you shower? I will roam your kitchen and find what you need."

I smile and nod. He gives me a kiss before leaving my bedroom. I enter my bathroom and stare at myself.

My face is stained with the streaks of black tears I cried.

Though everything was upsetting tonight, I feel a lot better. I feel like I've relieved a load of stress.

I start a shower, then look at the bathroom door. I tie a towel around my waist and poke my head out.

I see Justin on his phone, holding a bottle of wine, his attention on his phone.

Roman: "Justin... can you come here please?"

Justin: "Yup!"

He doesn't look up and sets the bottle on the bed before walking towards me.

Justin: "I got the wine, but I have no idea where the glasses are."

Roman: "Oh, that's okay. I'll help you get them later."

Justin: "Sounds good, I-"

He stops as he enters the bathroom. His eyes quickly go over my chest as they widen.

Roman: "I was just thinking that after such a stressful night tonight, maybe you could help me start a bath? I was only wondering since you said you'd help me relax."

Justin: "Oh! Yes! I can totally do that!"

He looks at me before quickly going to my shower and turning it off.

He walks over to the jacuzzi tub and starts it, the loud jets filling the room.

I hand him the soap I want and watch as he pours it in.

Roman: "Isn't that such a yummy smell?"

Justin: "Yeah... I love chocolate."

Roman: "I do, too. You know, I think I have some chocolate left in the kitchen. Remind me to grab some when we get the glasses."

Justin nods and watches as I approach the tub.

I hook my thumb under my towel at my hip bones and bend slightly to check the water temperature.

Roman: "Hmm, do you think it's hot enough?"

Justin sticks his hand in and nods.

Justin: "I think so."

Roman: "That's good. You know... to really make me feel better."

He looks at me, his eyes wide.

Roman: "I think that maybe... it'd be nice... if you stayed nearby. I don't want to be alone right now."
