Always And Forever

Chapter 39

[KIRAN POV]

"Can you believe that idiot had the nerve to call me last night....at 3am?"

"Why? What did he say?" Dean sat in the trainer's room killing time before his match while I was doing paperwork.

"He was going on about me, saying that I said I had forgiven him and that I was there with him but I disappeared or something.....do you think he's losing his mind over me?"

Dean didn't reply, so I looked up at him. I couldn't believe he wasn't paying attention to me, he was too busy blowing air into plastic gloves that were on the table. I got up and stood in front of him with my hands on my hips. He blew up the last one really big and tied it up to give it to me.

"I present to you....a hand balloon...."

I took it from him with a smile and playfully smacked him over the head with it. "And I present to you...an idiot! Dean, you're not even paying attention to what I'm saying!"

"I was....something about you losing your mind over him." He took another glove out of the box but before he had a chance to blow it up, I took it off him and moved the box away from him.

"Dean! I'm not losing my mind over him!! I think he's losing his mind over me!!....." I laughed.

"It's possible, I mean you guys were inseperable. Why don't you call him back and just see if he's okay?"

"No way! He's not my problem anymore. If I do that, he's going to start all over again."

"What if he turns into a deranged lunatic like me? You know like sometimes those people who go crazy after losing the love of their life? What if he turns out like that?"

"A deranged lunatic? Dean, I think he's far from that, you're a bit of a nut at times but I think he's just having a hard time coming to terms with the situation."

"I'll take that as a compliment. But seriously, just casually talk to him and see what's going on. I'm sure you care enough about him to make sure he's okay."

Dean was right, I was worried about him because of Roman's tendency to resort to alcohol when things were looking down for him. I had to figure something out to make sure he was doing okay without really having to talk to him.

[ROMAN POV]

Last night was just ridiculous. I couldn't believe how realistic it felt when I dreamt Kiran was here. When I kissed her, all the feelings came rushing back. Even if it was just a dream, I only wished that I could stay asleep so I could atleast see her in my dreams. It was hard coming to terms knowing that she was still mad at me but it was the bitter truth. I didn't do anything since this morning except for feeding Scooter. I couldn't even call up Dean to talk because I wasn't on good terms with him either. The only other person in my contacts worth calling was Corey Graves, so I pulled up his number and dialed it.

"Hey man, what's good?"

"I wish I could say all good but unfortunately that's not the case. Kiran and I broke up for good. Well more like she broke up with me, but I'm to blame..." I told him everything that had happend from Seth setting her up to my incident with her.

"Shit man, that's a tough spot to be in. Is she talking to you atleast?"

"No, she talks with Dean only."

"You need to first fix things with Dean. Talk to him, appologize for your wrong doings and then the two of you can try to work with Kiran and patch things up."

"I don't know man, she's not easy to get through. Especially after yesterday, she told me straight up that she was sorry she was ever with me..."

"Well she's hurt, she doesn't want you seeing that she's hurting, but truth is she is. And she's seeking comfort in Dean, not replacing you with him, just as friends. She sees him as her protector right now."
