Dean's POV

Seth had to leave because he was Universal Champion and no way Vince would believe us or care that Nevaeh had memory loss so he left but was going to come back tomorrow. While he was gone, he was supposed to talk to Vince and see if he'd rehire Nevaeh.

The doctor recommended we not tell Nevaeh about her memory loss until she regained a majority of it or all of it. Otherwise she'd end up in a panicked state. I mean it made sense, after all how would you react if you got told you were suffering from memory loss.

As for how her memory was currently, we were told that she had bits and pieces from different parts of her life. Which explained why she thought she was in the shield and why she remembers Hope even though those paths don't align.

Neveah was currently asleep, she had been sleeping a lot as her body was still healing. Hope was currently on my lap playing with my hand, she thankfully was not crying every two seconds when I held her. She definitely didn't like me as much as Seth but she allowed me to care for her when her mom was sleeping.

"See I'm not that bad right Hope?" I asked and Hope innocently put my thumb in her mouth and gummed it. I guess I should be glad she hadn't gotten her teeth yet." Come on, lets go get your mom breakfast and feed you." I said and Hope cooed happily at the mention of food.

I slipped on my shoes then headed down to the lobby with Hope in my arms. She snuggled into me and hid her little head in my chest as we approached strangers." I got you Hope, I promise." I said soothingly holding her close as I went to where they were serving breakfast and made Nevaeh a plate with waffles, eggs and bacon.

Hope looked at the bacon intrigued." Grow some teeth then we'll talk." I said softly laughing and I swear she rolled her eyes just like her mom.

We went up to the room again and I placed Nevaeh's food on the bedside table then went to the fridge where Nevaeh stored Hope's milk and made her a bottle. Hope's eyes immediately lit up as she saw her food.

"Someone's hungry huh?" I said taking a seat on the couch in the master bedroom then put the bottle to Hope's lips and she immediately began to drink happily.

As Hope continued to drink her milk, Nevaeh began to wake up." Good morning, sweetheart. Your breakfast is on the table." I said as Hope finished her bottle and I set it aside and began to try and burp her.

"Thanks babe." Nevaeh said sleepily and while half asleep began to eat her bacon as Hope suddenly burped loudly then looked at me innocently causing me to laugh.

"Atta girl." I said proudly and kissed her forehead then carefully handed Hope over to Nevaeh.

"How you feeling sweetheart?" I asked sitting beside her as Hope sat on her lap." I'm doing better, I just randomly feel so weak and I hate it." Nevaeh said softly as Hope laid back and closed her eyes, snuggling into her mom.

"Thanks for watching her by the way." She said with a warm smile.

"Of course sweetheart, anything for you." I said kissing her softly which she returned.

"You can get some sleep now if you'd like." She said as I hadn't slept in the past 48 hours. I was either watching her or watching Hope but I didn't mind.

"I'm fine, I'm used to lack of sleep. You can repay me later." I teased and she smirked.

"You'd enjoy that wouldn't you babe?" She said with a wink.

"More than you'd know sweetheart." I responded truthfully, although I made a deal with Seth that neither of us would have sex with her till she remembered us fully. And I had no plans on breaking that deal.

Nevaeh's POV

"Well I'm going to take a shower to hopefully wake up from the dead. Can you keep an eye on Hope for me please?" I asked as set her in the crib the hotel provided.

"Of course, sweetheart." Dean said watching Hope sleep with a smile on his face. I was actually genuinely surprised how well Dean was doing with her. Usually she just responded well to Seth.

"Thanks Dean." I said then stepped into the bathroom and began to run the hot water, as the water was heating up I glanced at my phone and saw a text from Seth asking how I was doing.

I snapped a picture of myself then sent it to him along with a text that read." Doing well, miss you already. Kick some ass and tell Roman he's an asshole for not texting me."

It had been four days since I was out of the hospital and nothing from Roman. I wanted to call him but I knew Dean wouldn't react well to that so I scrolled through my contacts till I found his name and sent him a text that read." Hey asshole, I miss you. Guess the feeling isn't mutual."

A few moments later Roman responsed with a text that read." Ha very funny."

"I don't get what's funny about not texting me or visiting me after I got out of the hospital." I texted back then began to get undressed.

"I didn't think you'd wanna see me..." Roman texted back.

"Why wouldn't I want to see you Ro'? I've been wondering where you were since I woke up but Seth and Dean told me you were working." I texted.

"Well I was babygirl but I would've came to see you if I knew you wanted me to.." Roman texted back.

"Well now you know, so I expect to see you soon. Ask Dean or Seth for the address because I'm about to jump in the shower." I responded then set my phone down and entered the steaming hot shower and sighed in relief as it felt like heaven.

I don't know why Roman thought I wouldn't want to see him, maybe Dean said something to him. I wouldn't be surprised considering how protective Dean was of me.

Seth was also protective of me, just in a different way. Although, I had to admit if he wasn't with Leighla I'd probably be interested. Then again being stuck between Dean and Roman was hard enough. Plus, I don't think Seth even loved me in that way. Which was fine, maybe I wasn't his type.

I began washing up while softly humming to myself, this shower felt so amazing. I hadn't had the energy to bathe these last few days, so this shower was truly bringing me back to life. I must've spent twenty minutes in the shower before stepping out and began drying off, I wrapped the towel around myself then checked my phone messages to see a text from Roman that read." How do I know you really miss me?"

I rolled my eyes then slightly lowered my towel to reveal my cleavage then took a picture and sent it to him with a message that read." Proof enough babe?"

"😍😍Sure is babygirl, I'll see you soon." Roman responded.

I put on one of Dean's shirts that fit me like a dress with nothing underneath then walked over to Dean who was trying his best to not nod off while watching Hope.

"Please get some sleep, Dean." I said sitting on his lap and he wrapped his arms around me, holding me close.

"You aren't wearing panties are you, sweetheart?" Was Dean's response instead.

"Nope, problem?" I asked.

"None at all sweetheart, I can just sleep better knowing that." He teased causing me to laugh, he then fell back with me in his arms so we were both laying down." Wake me up if you need anything, okay sweetheart?" He said then kissed my cheek and held me close before instantly knocking out.
