RAIDEN ROMANO.

So..not even to my own surprise I'm at a hotel with Wren.
Not that I want him here , he's just a stubborn little shit.
I was planning on shoving babysitting him onto Enrion and Lain but that would be too cruel , even for me.

I unlock the door , Wren shoves past me and jumps onto one of the beds.
If we're looking at it positively at least I won't be stuck with him in the same bed , ever again , I'm dropping him back off at his house once this whole deal is over , I'll figure out what to do with his dad after.

I've had some guys stop by the house while Wren was with me but nobody had been there that time.
I close the door behind me and walk over to the big sliding door windows , pulling them open , I step onto the luxurious balcony that has a hot tub on it.
Not that I'm here to enjoy it but it might keep Wren busy while I focus on the task at hand.

My phone buzzes in my pocket , I take it out and awnser the call , lifting my phone to my ear.
"We've got his exact location." Enrions voice floats in from the other end of the line , I had asked him to get some people involved in tracking down Dean which finally seemed to have paid off.
"I'll send it to you , be careful , he's involved with some people we can't get any info on."
"Got it." I say before hanging up , when Wren walks out to check out the balcony I step back inside. 
Well that call came earlier than expected , the address is just a few blocks from the hotel.
It's a warehouse , go figure.

The part that might make this job even harder is Wren and the way he just can't stay out of my damn way. 
I whistle , Wren walks back inside , practically bouncing on his feet , I take out my gun , checking it.
"Don't argue with me on this , I need you to stay here tonight." I say , handing him my gun , his face drops as he takes the weapon "What ? Where the fuck are you going ?"
"What I came here for." I raise an eyebrow.
"So what , you're just gonna leave me here ?" his tone is accusing.
I narrow my eyes "As much as I would love to see you get shot-"
"Liar." he hisses.
I continue "You're staying." I grit out , my temper and voice rising.
His jaw ticks as he glares at me.

I huff , taking a step back to compose myself "Listen, somebody will keep watch outside the hotel just in case but if that door opens." I nod to the door "You shoot."
Even tho we're the ones tracking Dean there's no certainty that he's not onto us.
His brows pull together "What if its you ?" he holds his glare.
"Don't expect it to be." I tell him.
"Why can't I just come-"
"Because you'll only get in my way Wrenley." he's a distraction I can't afford tonight.
Wren tenses as he glares at me "You're a dick."
I tsk.

Wren suddenly lunges at me and shoves my chest , I grab his wrist and jerk him around so his back faces me before I drive my foot into the back of his knee , he drops to his knees , I let go of his wrists as he falls forward onto his hands , his breathing ragged , he's pissed , that's all I see when I look down at him "Cuidado amor, podrías lastimarte." I scold.
To my surprise he gets back up on his feet and spins around to face me , I raise an eyebrow.
His eyes are dark with anger.
"I'm your best shot at keeping track of Dean." he grits out.
"Confident are we ?"
He lifts his chin in defiance.

------------------------------

I end up leaving the hotelroom that night , glancing over at the black jeep across the street where Theo keeps watch while I'm gone , I get in my mustang , starting up the engine , as much as I would have loved to move in on Dean guns blazing I need to take things slow here , after all there's people involved we know nothing about.
Wren hadn't said a single thing since our argument.
The most I'd gotten from him were accusatory glances and pointed glares.

Foolish little rabbit.
