What's Wrong With You?

-16-

The two boys separated as soon as they heard their manager call out to them. Roman placed a hand on Seth's chest and whispered, "Wait, I'll go first."

He walked away to join their crew members who were eating and drinking at the table. Seth came walking towards the table following Roman almost a metre behind.

It was fun while they had dinner together but it was silly when they exit from the restaurant as Seth was drunk with strawberry cocktail whereas the others were not. They all had a good drink but Seth drank a lot and his face was all droopy and swollen. In addition to their troubles, it was raining outside and they all had to wait inside the restaurant. The manager was sulking already whereas Roman stood next to Seth having his arm clutched with his.

"Rom?" said Seth, looking at the ground."

"What?" said Roman sternly.

"Why are we still here? Let's go in." said Seth with sluggishness.

"We're not going in," replied Roman.

Seth raised his head up taking in a deep breath and looked at Roman. "Isn't this the hotel? Let's get into our room," he mumbled.

"Ugh, we aren't staying here!" Roman scolded Seth whereas Seth made a puppy face. "I wonder what made you drink that much!" Roman yelled.

Seth faced towards Roman, grabbed the neck of his tee and pulled him close. "Excuse us," Roman smiled at the receptionist. He then started to walk towards the washroom dragging Seth along with him.

"Hey man, don't pull me," mumbled Seth with almost no clarity.

When they entered into the washroom, Roman pushed the door shut. He suddenly felt a palm grab his butt hard from behind. Roman gasped and turned back to find that it was Seth doing it.

"Will you stop that Seth!?" Roman shrieked.

"Squishy," Seth smiled coyly.

"Dude... you need to go to sleep as soon as possible," Roman rolled his eyes.

Seth looked around. "Dude no we can't lay down here. This place is horrible as f*ck,"

"Sethie!" growled Roman and placed both his hands on Seth's shoulder. Seth stared back silently. "I found it really difficult to start but I just have to do it. Now," said Seth. He put both his arms around Roman's neck and closed his eyes pulling Roman for a kiss. Roman tried to pull away but Seth did not let go of him. His head dangled backwards while Roman tried to push him away. "Scared no more?" Seth breathed out. He then moved his head closer to Roman's and pushed himself onto Roman's body a little bit harder.

"Woah!" exclaimed Roman as he recoiled. He finally could separate himself from Seth's body and now he was standing almost a feet away from Seth. "What the heck!? Stop it!" yelled Roman.

"But why? Why can't you kiss me? You've always made me feel loved so why can't I do the same with you?" Seth argued.

"Because I'm dating Dean, Seth!" Roman shouted back rendering Seth silent. His voice echoed all over the room. Seth stared at Roman agape whereas Roman looked away immediately. He couldn't believe that he actually had uttered his biggest secret before Seth.

Seth took a step backwards. His eyes were still fixed on Roman. A wry expression came to his face as he said, "Hey. Say it again,"

Roman turned to look at Seth whereas Seth repeated, "Come on, guy. Say that to me again." Roman stared at Seth who kept smiling at him wryly. Roman did not want to repeat it after Seth once again but Seth kept asking him again and again to repeat it.

"Dean and I," Roman started to speak whereas Seth ran out of the washroom all of a sudden. "Seth!" gasped Roman. Roman had no intention to hurt Seth. He had to reveal it as he found drunk Seth becoming too over with his activities. Moreover he had never expected Seth to be even shocked as he thought he was too drunk to give a thought. But Seth's reaction made him clear that he was shocked as well as hurt.

Roman scratched his head thinking what to do. "I need to go get him," he spoke to himself. Keeping all the thoughts that kept coming to him at that moment aside, he ran out of the washroom looking for Seth.

"Have you seen Seth anywhere?" He asked stopping at the reception.

"He just walked out," answered the receptionist with a worried look on her face.

"What!?" gasped Roman and ran out the door immediately. It was raining heavily and his body was all wet within a few seconds. Seth being out in the heavy rain worried him a lot as he remembered Seth's body had not been feeling well since the previous day.

"Seth!" he gasped out as he found Seth's figure at a distance receding towards the open parking area. Roman started to run towards his direction immediately.

Seth stopped beside a concrete pillar near to the parking area. His whole body had been wet and exhausted. He let out a painful groan fingering the swelling over his neck. He kept huffing for air as his body felt weak and he was too drunk to even stand. It was not long when everything seemed to go black in front of his eyes and he collapsed onto the ground. Roman reached there within a moment and found Seth lying unconscious right beside the pillar. He knelt down immediately and wrapped his arm around the back of Seth's head, lifting it up from the ground. "Seth! You listening to me? Seth!!" Roman tried to wake him up patting his wet cheeks.

Seth neither stirred nor opened his eyes. Roman then put his other arm under Seth's thighs and picked his limp body up from the ground as he stood up. As he held Seth close to himself, he found his body to be shivering with cold. Roman thought it'd be embarrassing if they went back into the restaurant in that condition. He walked into the parking area looking for their manager's car.

He was sure Seth's health would worsen on the next day but he tried to do what was best. As he walked carrying Seth with him, Seth moved his head a bit. Roman quickly looked down at Seth and saw him mumble something quietly.

"What?" said Roman as he drew his face closer to Seth's in order to listen to him.

"Say that to me again..." Seth breathed out.

"How can you even talk when you're like this!? Stop talking at the moment," said Roman.

Seth replied nothing and wept instantly with his head pressed against Roman's chest till he fell asleep within a few minutes.

Seth woke up the next morning to find himself lying under a cosy blanket on a large bed. He opened his eyes and looked around to find the room he was in to be a familiar one. He closed his eyes once again and tried to sleep as the pain over his neck wouldn't let him move. But soon he opened his eyes and groaned as he could sleep no more because of his blocked nose and sore throat. He had never felt as horrible as what he was feeling at that moment.

He moved his head with difficulties and found Roman lying asleep beside him on the bed. He was without a shirt and had nothing draped over his body. Before a plenty of thoughts could creep into his mind, he was startled by the noises at the door. Seth looked at the door which was opposite to him. To his surprise, he found Dean enter through the door. He watched Dean as he dropped his luggage down onto the floor and then came walking towards bed.

Dean sat down right next to Roman on the bed and spanked Roman's butt hard in order to wake him up. Roman groaned whereas Dean said to him, "How much are you gonna sleep? Time to wake up."

"Dean," breathed Seth. Dean's eyes soon met with those of Seth. "Hey, Sethie! Tutt, why are you up so early? You must sleep more."

"Why is it that he can go back to sleep but I can't?" Roman breathed out.

"Buddy, he's sick but you're not." replied Dean.

Roman suddenly gasped and got up from his sleeping position. "Dean!?" he said, staring at Dean's face. "When did you reach? How's it that I didn't know about...-"

"Hush," Dean interrupted Roman placing a finger over Roman's lips. He smiled at Roman giving him a strong glare making Roman get lost in him for the moment, and then walked out of the room slowly as if he were asking him to follow him.
