Confusion Book 2 - Playing Games

Chapter 2 - The First Clue

**Roman's P.O.V.**

"Hey Dean, call me back as soon as you get this message. Stephanie wants to see about us doing another tag team match against Randy and Kane." I said to his voicemail.

"Seth, I'm going over to Dean's place. He's not answering my calls and we have work to do." I told Seth who was in the shower.

"Are you sure you don't wanna hop in first ? I can smell you from in here, and I keep dropping this soap !" he said jokingly. I instantly thought of every dirty position we could possibly get in, but I had to turn it down.

"Yeah, I'm sure, but I'll back soon." I told him.

When I got to Dean's place, I spent forever knocking on the door until he answered.

"Roman ! What's up ?" he said in a weary voice.

"Dean, you're drunk again. Go back inside." I told him as he fell onto me. I walked in, and the coffee table was broken.

"What happened to the table." I asked him.

"Oh it's nothing. I just, it just tripped over something and it went, boom. Hahah !" he answered.

"Okay, so Stephanie wants to know if we can do a tag team dark match for Main Event. If so, we have to leave no later than tomorrow morning to get to Tampa on time." I said, but he had somehow fallen asleep.

"Come on, let's get you in the bed." I carried him upstairs and gave him some warm milk to settle the alcohol.

"Oh Dean, what am I gonna do with you." I said to myself.

"Come here." he said tiredly. "Come closer." he urged. When I got just inches from his face, he lightly grabbed me and gave me a kiss on the forehead.

"Uhh, Dean ?" I said still by his face. He gave me another kiss, but on the cheek.

"Damn Dean, you should really stop drinking." I said shaking my head. When I pulled back, he gripped his hands around my neck, pulled me in tight and gave me a big kiss on the lips.

"What um, what was that for ?" I asked hesitantly. I wanted to push him out the bed, but I had to keep in mind how drunk he was and how he can be.

"For always being a good friend. You always take care of me. Through the good and the bad times." he said.

"I'll always be here for you. That's what best friends are for." I told him.

"I'll do the tag team match with you on one condition." he said holding up the number two. "You kiss me back, and tell me you love me."

He tried sitting up, but fell back and I had almost fallen back too from his request. Was he serious ? Did the liquor hit him too hard ?

"Dean, this is our job we're talking about. There's no time for games. It's do or die." I told him, trying to snap him back into reality.

"I'm not kidding Rome ! I will walk out in the middle of the match and leave you by yourself." he said.

He wasn't kidding, and I thought about what Stephanie would do if he did, all the rumors people would make. I leaned over and kissed his forehead, but he stopped me right before I left.

"That wasn't on the lips." he whined.

"Don't tell Seth about this ! It's for our job, nothing personal." I said

I knew it was personal. It was 110% personal. I do love him, but as a bestfriend. I reminded myself that he was drunk and that he's willing to do anything for no reason. I gave him the kiss like he wanted and said "I love you Dean. Now I gotta go. Be at the airport at 6am "

As I walked through the living room about to leave, I saw a picture on the floor. It was Dean and Tyler at the bowling alley, but Tyler's face was X'd out in red marker. Above his head was "It Was Never Meant To Be."
