Chapter 11: Oh Hunter.....

The Next Day

Dean's POV:

I woke up the next morning and sighed, seeing the bed empty next to me. I didn't cry when I got home yesterday after seeing Seth.

Why, you may ask?

Because I know Seth inside out. I know him more than he knows himself. I know he wouldn't ever gain feelings for anyone else, especially Hunter. I know Hunter is blackmailing Seth. I could tell because Seth glanced at Hunter a lot during our conversation and if Seth was happy with Hunter and was confident about this divorce, he wouldn't have had to keep looking at Hunter and almost ask for his approval.

I got up and looked at the calendar on the wall. The divorce process must've started by now. This means, starting from today, I have 90 days to get Seth back.

Seth's POV:

Hunter led me to his huge house and made his men carry his luggage.

"So...where's my room?" I asked.

"What do you mean? You're sharing a room with me."

"What? I can't. I'm not ready for that." I said.

"Does it look like I care?"

"If you really love me, you would care." I shot back.

Hunter glared at me and sighed.

"Fine, you can have your own room." he said.

I was led to my room and when Hunter left, I let my tears stream down my face. This was what my life had turned into. I've lost the love of my life and I've lost my kids. I might not be able to see my family again and I'm stuck with Hunter. 

Life sucks right now.

"Seth, come here." I heard Hunter call.

I groaned and left my room, going down to see what Hunter wanted.

"What?" I asked.

"Come over here." he said as he sat on the couch.

I slowly walked over to him. I didn't know what he wanted and quite frankly, I was kinda scared. I let out a yelp as he pulled me down onto his lap.

"Hunter, let me go." I said, trying to get up.

"Seth, don't try me. You will listen to everything I say. You will do everything I tell you to do because I'm sick of you fighting me over everything and denying everything."

"Hunter please. I don't want this. I'm not comfortable with this."

"I don't care Seth. I've waited for almost five years for this moment and I'm not letting it go now." he said. "You will do everything I tell you to do, understand?"

I had no choice. I sighed before nodding.

"Look, I don't like forcing you to do all this because I know you don't like it but please go along with it. I've waited so long for this."

I looked at Hunter for a moment, trying to figure out what was going on. He was just a man in love at the end of the day. Sure he might not have shown it in the right way but....he was confusing for sure. 

He was kinda like me in a way.

When I fell for Dean, all I wanted was for him to feel the same way but he didn't. Hunter fell for me but I didn't feel the same way.

"Are..are you really in love with me?" I managed to get the courage to ask.

"Ever since you first debuted. It's not like I wanted to feel this way. It just happened. I don't know why. I felt butterflies when I first saw you." he said, stroking my thigh and oddly, I let him continue to do it.

"Why did you want to hurt my baby if you loved me?"

"I..I guess I was jealous. You were so happy with Dean and you were having a baby together and that really lit a fire in me." he said, making me nod. I could kinda relate to that too. When it was Charlie's birthday and I saw Dean talking to some girl, I was jealous. Like, really jealous.

"How would I know that you really love me?" I asked.

"By apologizing. I'm sorry for tying you up like that in the barn. I didn't wanna hurt you but I knew you wouldn't cooperate with me." he said. "I'm sorry for everything I did to you."

I looked at him in shock. Hunter never apologizes to anyone. Even if something was his fault, he wouldn't apologize.

"I just need one chance Seth. I know my methods of trying to get to you were wrong but I really want this to work. You can go and see your kids whenever you want. I don't mind."

I bit my bottom lip as I tried to figure out what to do. It took me a while to come up with a decision.

I smirked to myself before looking at Hunter and quickly getting rid of my smirk.

"Okay, fine. But can we please go slowly?" I asked, making him nod.

"Whatever you want Seth. Whatever you want." 

He started to kiss my neck as I smirked to myself.

Oh Hunter.....
