The Shield One Shots Book 2!

Strangers In The Night/Ambreigns Pt5

 Roman Reigns finished getting dressed after his shower and headed back to his bunk on the train. When he got there it was empty, but there was a note on the bed, smiling he put his stuff away, before he made the bed. He then sat down on the edge of the bed and read the note, it was from the gorgeous, mysterious man he had met on the train three days ago Dean Ambrose. The note said to meet him in the Dining Car for breakfast in 20 minutes. Roman put the note on the nightstand, as he sighed and looked out the window, thinking about everything that's happened to him since he boarded the train four days ago.

 Roman had just spent two weeks nursing his sick mother back to health, now that she was better she insisted he go home to his life. Feeling exhausted and unlike himself, his mother suggested he take a train home, so that's what he did. He boarded the train and faced five long nights and six long days...it sounded like Heaven! Roman wasn't sure why he felt like he did, he loved everything about his life. He loved his job and especially his best friend...brother Seth Rollins; they've been friends since they met in elementary school, they clicked the moment they met and have been best friends all their lives. They live and work together at a Real Estate agency, there was nothing they didn't know about each other! Lately though, he's been feeling like something was missing and before it affected his job or friendship with Seth, he needed to figure it out and deal with it. So, when his mother suggested the train trip home he figured the time alone to unwind was exactly what he needed.

 After boarding the train and finding his bunk, he decided to go get something to eat. He went to the Dining Car, but it was completely packed, so he decided to go to the only non-packed car which was the Smoking Car and have a drink instead; he'd grab some food later. Roman didn't usually drink very much, but since he wasn't driving and he didn't have to work in the morning why the hell not; he deserved it! He got his beer and sat down at a booth behind a guy who was a smoker and was also sitting alone, he decided to talk to the guy. When the guy turned around to reply to him, Roman froze, he was the most gorgeous guy he had ever seen! They ended up arguing over Roman being in the Smoking Car, before the guy ended the conversation and turned back around in his seat. The rest of the time they were in the car they didn't speak again, which Roman regretted.

 Roman ended up spending time with two men who had thought knew him, but were wrong; they had apologized and went to leave, but Roman stopped them and asked them to join him. The entire time he talked with the men, he knew the guy was listening to every word they said; even though he pretended he wasn't and Roman snuck glances at the man smiling, which were unnoticed by the guy. By 3AM Roman had had enough, so he said his good nights to his new friends and they left. Once they were gone, Roman turned smiling to talk to the man, but was very disappointed to find he was gone; he wasn't even sure when he had left. Sighing he got up to leave, when he noticed the man's lighter on the table, so smiling he picked it up. It had the initials DA on it, so he knew it was important to the man. He stood waiting...hoping to see if he'd come back for it, when he didn't Roman; not wanting someone else to take it, he decided to hold onto it for him and return it tomorrow. He went back to his bunk and after changing he got into bed. He lay on his back playing with the lighter, as he smiled. He was attracted to the blond haired, blue eyed, dimpled man who owned it, but it wasn't just the man's looks he was attracted to, it was his personality too! He knew it wouldn't be easy to get to know the man, but Roman wouldn't quit until he did! He put the lighter on the small table by his bed, before he fell asleep dreaming of the man.

 The next day he talked to Seth for a few minutes, before he went to breakfast, hoping he'd run into his mystery man, so he could apologize for the way he acted the night before and return his lighter. A couple hours later after no luck finding his mystery man, he sat in the nearly deserted Smoking Car, playing with the lighter, as he looked out the window. As he did he heard someone laugh and saw two men sitting by the door; one had the same hair from behind as his mystery man. So, he got up and went to them, unfortunately it wasn't him, so he apologized and returned to his seat disappointed. He didn't see his guy at all, even at dinner, so at 9PM Roman went to the Smoking Car again, sitting at the same booth as the night before and waited. Finally at 10 o'clock the guy appeared and sat at the table he had sat at the night before too. Nervously he tried to get the courage up to talk to him, but couldn't...until the guy began looking for his lighter; giving Roman a reason to talk to him.
