Victim Of Love [On-going]

New found feelings

A rather loud knocking sound woke Seth the next morning. Dean and Roman were already up and dressed, and Seth listened carefully as an unfamiliar voice filled the hotel room.

''Good morning, I'm detective Melville. Is a Mr. Rollins staying here?'' The detective asked as Roman ushered him inside.

''Uh yeah, he's here, but he's asleep right now. What is this about?'' Roman asked as Dean appeared next to him, eyeing the man up and down suspiciously.

''And you are?'' The detective questioned as he looked between the two men

''I'm Roman Reigns and this is Dean Ambrose'' Roman replied. ''We're Seth's friends. I'm guessing this is about Randy?''

''Yes, it is'' The detective confirmed. ''Mr. Reigns. Were you the gentleman that brought Mr. Orton into the police station?''

''Yeah that was me'' Roman answered

''Right'' The detective said as he wrote something down on a mini notepad he pulled out of his pocket

''Uh, do you want me to get Seth?'' Dean asked

''I would appreciate that thank you'' Detective Melville replied

By the time Dean entered the bedroom, Seth was already up and dressed and it was clear from his worried expression that he had overheard the whole conversation

''Do you feel up to doing this?'' Dean asked as Seth turned around to look at him

''Not really'' Seth admitted. ''But I don't think I have a choice''

''It'll be fine'' Dean assured ''Ro and I will be there with you the whole time''

Seth smiled weakly and left the room, Dean following closely behind him

''Mr. Rollins?'' Detective Melville asked as Seth came into view

''Yes, sir'' Seth replied

''I'm Detective Melville, I am one officer covering your case'' He clarified

Seth shook the detective's hand before sitting down on the couch. Roman and Dean quickly sat down on either side of him.

''I'm not sure if you've been notified or not but you will need to testify against Mr. Orton at some point in the future" Detective Melville stated "However for now I would like to get an official statement from you if that's alright?''

''That's fine'' Seth agreed

Detective Melville checked his notes before asking his first question

"When Mr. Reigns brought Mr. Orton into the police station, he confessed to inflicting violence on you. Can you confirm that this is true?''

''Yes, it's true" Seth confirmed ''Whenever he got annoyed, angry or drunk he would beat me up, sometimes until I couldn't move anymore. The only time he was nice to me was when he wanted something from me, usually sex''

Detective Melville listened intently, jotting down notes here and there

"And what about this?'' He said as he pointed to Seth's injured leg. ''Did he do this to you?''

''No. I did this in the ring'' Seth replied "I'm a professional wrestler"

''Would you like a drink, Detective, something to eat?'' Roman asked

He'd sensed that Seth was getting anxious, and he was keen to give Seth a few minutes' rest

''No, thank you I just have a one more question and then I'll be on my way'' Detective Melville answered "Mr. Rollins, when was the last time you saw Mr. Orton?''

''Just before Roman brought him into the police station'' Seth replied ''They uh. Roman and Dean they heard me...Randy was trying to rape me and they heard me shouting. That was the last time''

''I appreciate all your help Mr. Rollins and I know this must be difficult for you so I'm going to leave you in peace'' Detective Melville answered ''Thank you for your time. We will be in touch with you soon''

''Are you alright?'' Dean asked as soon as the detective left

Seth wanted to pretend that everything was alright and that the detectives' visit didn't upset him but it did. ''Wasn't exactly an ideal way to start the day''

''I know'' Dean agreed

''How did you sleep?'' Roman asked, eager to change the subject

''I slept good'' Seth replied, managing a small smile as he looked at Roman. ''Thanks to you guys. It really helped to have you both there with me''

''I didn't think you noticed I was there too'' Dean said

''I knew'' Seth replied. ''I don't have to be awake to know when you're close by''

''Tired?'' Roman asked as Seth let out a yawn

''A bit'' Seth replied. ''I think all those weeks of disturbed sleep are catching up with me''

''Well, it's still early'' Roman pointed out as he looked at his watch. ''It wouldn't hurt to get another few hours of sleep''

''Will you guys lie with me again?'' Seth quickly asked. ''You don't have to stay for long, just be with me until I fall asleep''

''We were going to anyway'' Dean said as he stood up, holding his hand out towards Seth
