What's Wrong With You?

-50-

Seth, as he comforted Roman in his arms, started to feel more and more tears build up in his eyes. The fact that he could never get Roman to love him back always got him emotionally wrecked. He loved Roman with all his heart which was why he had been trying to remain strong and accept his decisions of having Dean as his partner. But he could never get an opportunity to get his frustrations of not having Roman as his partner off his chest. Since he was in tears already, he thought it was a good opportunity to cry his heart out and let out all his frustrations. Just sobbing in Roman's arms would feel just right, he thought. He gave up holding back his tears and started to sob hard.

Roman separated himself from Seth quickly and stared at Seth with a lot of concern in his teary eyes. "Seth!" he cried. He placed his hands on Seth's shoulder and held him close. "Seth, look at me. What happened??"

Seth observed how Roman tried to control his tears and was back to his big brother self again as soon as he heard him cry. "You already know I can't control my emotions when I express my feelings in words." said Seth in his crying voice and began to hiccup. Roman then wrapped both his arms around Seth and tightly hugged him. Tears ran down his eyes again as he gently whispered, "Oh, Seth..."

Seth cried heavily clinging onto the love of his life. He buried his head in Roman's neck and let his tears out freely. Roman stroked the back of Seth's head a few times before he separated Seth from him and cupped his face. "It's okay, Seth. I'm glad we can always express each other our feelings. Thanks for being true to me about your feelings. Thanks for showing me how you feel."

Seth tried hard to stop crying. His heavy cries were turning to sniffs as he said, "Don't worry, Roman. I'm sorry, I was just carried away by my feelings."

Roman slowly got his hands off Seth's face and continued to stare at him. "Look at the TV. Dean has come." said Seth, wiping his tears still. Roman took his eyes off Seth and looked at the TV. Seth wiped his tears stained face with his own hands and then tried to focus at the tv, even though his eyes were still producing tears and were stinging.

Roman and Seth watched tv for a minute without speaking anything. Roman was well aware of the fact that Seth was feeling pretty uneasy even though he was trying to act normal. "I'll be back to you within a second." Roman mumbled before he got up and started to walk towards the bathroom. Seth neither interrupted nor turned to look at Roman as he himself needed space for a while. A few drops of tear fell down his eyes again and he stroked them off his face. He felt a bit better after that and then looked at the tv, not knowing what to do next.

Roman walked out of the bathroom after a few minutes and joined Seth at the tv. He climbed the bed and lay on his tummy, beside Seth. Seth, as he was just sitting, looked down at Roman. "What happened? Dean has a match?" asked Roman.

"No... He doesn't. But the one who would win the battle royal would become one of the contender for Dean's title." replied Seth, feeling glad from the inside that they were now having normal conversations with each other.

"So... No Dean in the rest of the show then?" sighed Roman.

"Maybe he'll show up at last? Who knows! I'll watch the rest of the show. I'm curious how the first episode of smackdown live would be like." said Seth, looking at the tv.

"Hmm, I'm curious too." said Roman stroking his chin. "I wonder how Miz did not challenge Dean for his championship."

"Doesn't he already have the IC title though?" asked Seth.

"Would not he want to become a two champ though?" Roman questioned back.

"Hmm..." said the two altogether, stroking their chins. They then looked at one another realizing that they did the same action simultaneously. After a few seconds of staring at each other, they then started to giggle, finding it funny.
