Turnaround

Part 21

Roman heard a knock on his door and jogged to it, opening it. Seth smiled and Roman moved aside to let him in. When Roman closed the door and turned around he was hugged tightly by Seth, he didn't even hug back. He was still mad. "Seth." His deep voice made the younger man flinch a bit.

"Sorry. Is Dean here?" Seth looked around and listened out to see if he could hear anything. "Why aren't you at work?" He then asked.

"I'm thinking about quitting and he's at work." Roman held his hand up when Seth was about to say something. "No Dean didn't make me think this way. So, get to the point. What about us?" Seth looked down slowly and frowned, he's been thinking clearly and fully. He's been doing so much wrong and he's so fucking sorry, he feels so bad and now he just needs to see it. He really misses Randy too and he apologized to Randy and everything. Randy accepted but they are starting off carefully.

"I'm really sorry." Seth started. "I know I've been a little jealous asshole. I know, I know I've been trying to push Dean away from you. I know that was wrong. I know I had Randy, I know." Seth looked up and he had tears in his eyes. "I just really don't want to lose you. Anything I can do to keep you I was willing. I know I fucked you over back then and I'm sorry. I'm sorry for rubbing everything in your face. I'm so sorry Rome. I'm so fucking sorry." Tears fell down Seth's face rapidly. "I'm so fucking stupid."

Roman's heart strings were pulling badly. "Seth.." He breathed out and pulled Seth in for a tight hug. "Don't cry."

"I understand if you don't want to forgive me. I know I can't have you anymore. I'm so fucking stubborn. Back then, I really liked you and I still do. I should of never messed you up more. I swear I didn't mean to, I just didn't know what to do and I didn't think it was that serious. I'm so sorry Roman."

"Seth.."

""No." Seth shook his head quickly. "I don't deserve anything. I'm so glad Randy took me back." More tears fell down Seth's face. "I really like him." He sniffled a bit. "My life is so fucked up. I'm fucked up."

"Seth please.." Roman felt Seth shaking hard in his arms badly. "I forgive you. You know I'll always have a special place in my heart for you no matter how mad I am. But you also know, I really really like Dean." Roman smiled when Seth smiled. "You know it's time to move on, I'm always here for you, always." When Seth looked down Roman pressed his warm lips against the younger man's forehead.

"I'm sorry." Seth whispered.

"Stop apologizing." Roman sighed. "You know what? I would really like you and Dean on the same page."

"Anything." Seth nodded. "If he makes you happy that's all that matters." Seth nodded and laughed a bit. "He's good for you Ro." He looked at his watch and sighed. "I have a date with Randy in a few, I'd rather not have him see me crying."

"Guess you should be getting to it then."

The two men smiled at each other. Roman placed a soft peck on Seth's lips then let him go. Seth smiled, knowing that, that was the last kiss. He walked towards the door but stopped when Roman called his name. "Let him take good care of you, Seth. Don't worry about how I am and how I'm feeling. Just know I'm doing good, okay?"

"Okay." Seth sniffled again before opening the door and walking out into the cold, snowy night. When he looked back Roman was already looking at him with a smile as he walked off.

Roman was on the couch sipping a soda. It was around 8PM, Dean should of been back. Suddenly his cellphone started ringing in his pocket. He took it out and saw that it was a private number. He answered with a frown. "Hello?"

"Hey Rome." Dean's voice picked up on the other line. Roman can instantly tell the younger man was happy.

"Hey, um." Roman sat his soda down. "Where are you?"
