What's Wrong With You?

"Rom," breathed Seth lowering his eyes. "When we walk out, it's going to be super awkward."

"You think?" Roman whispered back. "People here are not as stupid as Miz. We're the top guys in WWE. No one can give us a hard time."

Seth continued to stare at the ground and sniffed hard in order to make himself stop crying. Roman placed a finger below Seth's chin making him look up. "Just think of whatever happened with us as some sort of fan service that would make females go crazy. From now on, we'll be much more on demand on various fan sites and blogs," laughed Roman.

Seth had expected Roman to be very mad after the incident took place but it was the other way round. Roman looked too calm and collected and was not bothered at all. As they went out of the washroom and walked out of the building, they could pretty well notice people giving them strange looks on their way out. They looked up as they found their manager coming towards them. "What's next?" asked Roman, looking up at the manager.

"Nothing," the manager smiled shaking his head. Roman raised his eyebrows confusingly. "I mean," continued their manager. "There's nothing scheduled for you tomorrow so that you can have a day off. You worked hard boys."

Roman moved closer to their manager giving him a quick hug. "You're the best, fam!"

The manager laughed and pulled him away after he had hugged him back for a few seconds. "Boys boys boys!" He continued as his expression changed to a worried one. Roman and Seth looked at their manager with concern. "Is there something that I don't know?" he asked.

"What do you mean?" Seth questioned.

"What happened inside the dark corridor?" whispered the manager. He then gazed as Roman as he found Roman lean towards him a little.

"We kissed." Roman whispered back.

"What!?" gasped their manager whereas Seth stared at Roman with great astonishment.

"What the flipping heck! You believed what that idiot Miz said?" Roman shouted at their manager. "He perhaps wanted to get rich. That must be the purpose why he said that."

Seth's heart beat so loud that he even was able to hear it. Even though he had wanted Roman to fall for him, he still liked the fact that Roman was just not letting it happen too early.

"Ahh I see," laughed the manager. "He perhaps wanted to have fun but it's strange. He could've spoken to us before he was going to say that in his show. Anyway, who's starving? Lets go to a Korean restaurant and have a barbecue!!" He chuckled and walked away.

It was not long when Roman and Seth left for the restaurant with their manager in his car whereas the rest of the crew went along with them in another car. They reached within a few minutes and took their seats in a big table outdoors. Roman and Seth sat next to each other. Seth stared at Roman who stared back at him and smiled.  "Dean had called you," Seth breathed out.

"Oh, that's right! I forgot to call him back," gasped Roman, stood up from his seat and walked away from the table. Seth continued to stare at Roman until he walked towards an end of the lawn, stood under a tree and took his phone out of his pocket. Seth sighed and looked away right then.

"Pick up the phone Dean," Roman murmured to himself while he gave Dean a long ring. "Hello?" said Roman unsurely when Dean picked up but did not say anything on the phone.

"Are you on line? You listening to me?" said Roman again but Dean did not utter a word. "Look Dean, I know there must be a lot going in your head and so is mine. I did not mean to reject your call back then. Believe me, I had no hard feelings for you while I did that. I'm so sorry, Dean...-"
