The next day was a peaceful day for Dean. AJ and Roman were at the gym getting ready for work later on in the evening, so Dean was chilling out with Seth at home. It was just past noon when Dean's stomach started to rumble. Seth could hear it from the other side of the room.

"Whoa, are you hungry?" Seth asked, with a little giggle at the end.

"Um, yeah." Dean replied, suddenly shy. Seth remembered that Dean wasn't very good with food.

"Do you wanna go out and get some lunch? There's a nice cafe a couple of roads down, which has the best burgers and chips." Seth smiled, hoping that would persuade Dean. He knew how much he loved burgers.

"O-okay, as long as it's okay with you. I haven't got any money so-"

"Don't worry about money. I got you covered." Seth didn't want Dean to feel bad about not having money. "Come on, I'm starving."

The two men made their way to the cafe. They walked there, since it wasn't too far away. Dean felt very relaxed. It was unusual for him to feel this way, since he had spent so much time being tense recently. 

They arrived at the cafe and ordered their food. They both got a burger and chips.

"So, what have I missed on WWE?" Dean asked.

"Not much really, the majority of the main talent are out on injury. But there's been a big story-line fued between AJ and Roman." Seth said, thanking the waiter as she gave them their food.

"Really? How'd that happen?"

"Well, there was a number one contenders match, which AJ won. And then they had a match at Payback. Oh and Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson returned to help AJ, but Roman is still the champion."

"Cool, Roman would murder AJ if he beat him for the title." Dean laughed. "I've noticed lately that those two have bonded a lot. Roman use to hated AJ's guts."

"Yeah, that's understandable." Seth laughed. "But when you left we all bonded in order to help each other out. It was hard not having you around. Especially for me. We didn't exactly have the best goodbye." Seth sighed.

"I know. I'm sorry."

"Don't apologies. You did nothing wrong. I shouldn't have said what I said to my nephew. We probably would still be together and you wouldn't have had to deal with Sami." Dean flinched at the name.

"I think tensions rose over the whole AJ thing, though. I'm sorry for that. I don't know why I did it to be honest."

"We both did bad things in our relationship. I'm just glad there's no hard feelings, y'know?" Seth smiled.

"Yeah. Thank you for being there for me."

"No problem. What are friends for?"

The two men finished their dinner and headed back home. The first thing Seth saw when he stepped into his house, was a letter on the floor, addressed to Dean. He picked it up and gave it to dean. He had a feeling he knew what it was.

Dean opened up the letter and his face instantly dropped.

"What is it?" Seth asked, worry clear on his face.

"The trial." Dean's voice cracked as he said the later word. "It's next week." Tears started to form in Dean's eyes and Seth knew that his friend needed comfort, so he leaned in and gave Dean a hug.

Dean sobbed in Seth's arms. He didn't know what emotions he was supposed to feel. Should he be happy that Sami might go to prison for a long time? Or should he be sad that Sami might not go to prison at all?

"It's gonna be okay, Deano. No matter what happens me, AJ and Roman will make sure he stays away from you. You're not leaving us again. I'm not gonna let him hurt you." Seth soothed his friend as he rubbed his back.

"Do you wanna take a nap and take your mind off of it?" Seth asked. Dean simply nodded. "Okay, let's go upsairs."

Seth tucked Dean into bed and was about to leave the room, but Dean reached out to grab his arm.

"Stay with me?" Dean whispered. "Please?"

"Okay." Seth got into bed and cuddled up with Dean. "Get some rest. Roman and AJ will be back soon. Sleep tight."

Dean snuggled his head into Seth's chest. He loved the warmth that surrounded him whenever he was near Seth.

Roman and AJ returned to a silent house. They were confused as to why Seth's house was so quiet, but they soon figured out the reason. Seth and Dean were cuddled up in bed. Dean was asleep, but Seth was awake.

"Hey guys." Seth whispered. "Good day at work?"

"Yeah, we had a good match." Roman laughed, flicking AJ in the head.

"Dude, don't do that." AJ groaned, holding his head.

"I punched him a little too hard and now he's got a headache." Roman told Seth.

"Oh right." Seth laughed. "There's ice in the freezer."

"Thanks, I'm gonna need it." AJ sighed, heading downstairs.

"How's he been?" Roman asked looking at Dean.

"He was doing good for most of the day. We went out for dinner which was nice, but he got upset once we got home. The letter for the trial came today and I think he's a bit overwhelmed by it all."

"Well, that's understandable. I think I would be overwhelmed if I had to go through what he went through." Roman sighed.

"Yeah, I just hope he get's better soon. Hopefully seeing Sami go to jail will boost his spirits." Seth laughed slightly, stroking Dean's hair. 

"It'll work out. Don't worry. He'll be back to his old self in no time." Roman smiled. "Anyway, It's getting late so I'm gonna head to bed. See you in the morning."

"Goodnight Roman."

Seth fell asleep after his conversation with Roman. He hoped that the Samoan was right. He wanted Dean to be okay again. He hated seeing him so upset. 

Hey guys! So, what do you think should happen with Sami? I was thinking that he would somehow stalk Dean whether he's in prison or not, but I would like to know your opinions and ideas on Sami as well. Thank you all so much for reading and I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
