I'm going to write a series of one-shots kinda inspired by songs I like. I will start with "Creep" the song that Radiohead hates with passion xD.
I hope you all enjoy this idea and that you leave me a review and a fav or a follow if you like this new project
CREEP
When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry.
The first time Dean saw Roman was in the alley behind the restaurant of the uncles of the samoan teenager. The auburn-haired boy was lying on the floor, three big, strong guys were beating him. He had tried to defend himself but three against one... it was impossible.
The night was falling and the punches stopped. Dean heard voices, several. He watched as his assailants were beaten by three big teenagers. Dean was almost unconscious and couldn't make out the voices. He saw two of the teenagers and recognized them, the twins Jimmy and Jay were studying at his school. The defeated bullies fled the place leaving Dean bleeding in the dirty alley.
That's when he saw him. He was as handsome as an angel. Maybe he was one because for Dean he almost shone. He had this caramel skin and his face was so masculine it could be intimidating, but not for Dean. His hair was black, long and shiny, and it was a little messy because of the fight, everything about him was beautiful. The chocolate-colored eyes looked at him with sadness and his big hands brushed the hair from his face. Dean could hear his voice, it was deep and it made him feel calm. He couldn't understand what he said, he seemed to be speaking another language. Or maybe his brain was shutting down because of the punches. Whatever the reason was, it didn't matter. He felt the huge hands beneath his body now, lifting him up.
Maybe the angel would take him to paradise where angels like him live...
Dean looked at the handsome young man and it was like a realization, like an epiphany. Dean could never be the same after this afternoon, he would no longer belong to himself. His body and soul were now the property of the angel who had saved him.
Dean didn't want to sleep, he didn't want to give his body and mind to sleep but after that beating was inevitable. But all he did was look at his angel and tattooed that image in his mind, he would never forget him.
Soon Dean woke up in a hospital bed. His Uncle Terry was sitting next to him. There were no traces of the angel.
"Some of your classmates from school saved you this time." The man's voice was filled with concern. "You were lucky, I don't know what to do with you. I feel that one of these days I will find you dead. You always get in trouble."
Dean chuckled. "Like father Like son. But well you are not my father, you are my uncle."
"I love you like you were my son, Dean. And this is not what I want for you." The man didn't find Dean's comment funny. "I already knew you had problems with Aj and his gang. Those guys are the worst thing in our neighborhood. Tell me the truth... Have you been selling drugs fort them?"
"No Uncle. In fact they beat me because although I had initially agreed to work for them and actually sold some of the merch to a few guys. When I saw what I was doing I felt so bad, I was helping to destroy the lives of teenagers my age... I couldn't. But they had already given me the money, the money we needed to complete the rent for this month." Dean explained. "So although I give them back the merch and the little money I got, I still owed them money they had lend me and they looked for another way to honor the debt. I'm sorry for all the trouble I've caused you, uncle."
"This is all my fault, I work hard but we don't always get all the money we need." Terry was sad. "I have tried to do things well, by the memory of your parents and..."
"You have done everything well, uncle. I chose a bad way to help you but I already learned my lesson." Dean assured him. "I'll never get in trouble again."
…
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fucking special
Several days later, when his wounds healed, Dean was able to return to school and then he knew that the angel who saved him was quite human and was the cousin of the Uso twins. He had just arrived from Hawaii, his parents had sent him to study in this city because Roman wanted to apply for a sports scholarship at the university in that state.
The name of his angel was Roman Reigns, he was 16 years old like him and he came highly recommended. He was one of the best students in his previous school, he was part of the football team. And now that he saw him in the classroom surrounded by lots of girls and boys he knew that he had become one of the popular boys of the school. How could he not be? Now watching him in the light of day, Dean realized he was even more beautiful than the vision in the alley.
The auburn-haired teenager was sitting at the end of the classroom, no one asked about his absence because no one noticed. He was no more than the loner of the school, the weirdo. Everyone knew he had a shitty background and a lot of troubles: from his snarky comments to the teachers, he beat up other students and even his clothes that were torn jeans and leather jackets. Everything about him shouted "problem child". He was reputed to be a lunatic living on the edge and was always alone. He was known for being aggressive so no one came near him.
All the students in that school knew who he was... no one knew him at all. That's why he was always alone. But that solitude and aggressiveness was nothing more than a defense mechanism. None of his shenanigans compensated for his feeling of loneliness, of belonging to nothing... to anyone. Nothing filled the emptiness of his heart that yearned for a different life. Everything around him was gloomy and dark, until the day he saw Roman Reigns, the raven-haired teenager was like a light in his darkness.
But seeing him surrounded by the other teenagers, knowing that they had already adopted Roman as part of their perfect world, a world in which he would never fit... made him feel desperate. Because Roman was his angel he had saved him, he had shown concern and interest when no one had done it before. And Dean had silently given him his heart and soul.
How could someone like Dean approach someone like Roman?
Impossible…
…
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
In spite of sharing some classes, Roman just as the other kids in the class had not noticed Dean's presence. He had not recognized the soul he saved that afternoon, and which now belonged to him, though Roman didn't know. Was he so insignificant that his angel would not remember him?
One afternoon after following the same routine that Dean had since he met Roman Reigns: look at him from afar as one who looks at a star in the sky, beautiful and unreachable. He realized that Roman was alone, sitting on one of the benches after watching his cousins playing football. Dean decided to approach, perhaps if he saw him up close, Roman would recognizehim. Perhaps the soul of the raven-haired teenager would feel the same call that Dean felt on his that afternoon in the alley.
"Ro... Roman..." Dean said nervously.
Roman looked up and stared at the other teenager as if trying to recognize him.
"You're the teenager we helped three weeks ago," Roman had remembered.
"Yes. I never had the opportunity to thank you. I know that you and your cousins saved me and that you took me to the hospital. I was away for a week and when I came back I knew you were the new student." Dean couldn't believe he was talking to his angel. "My name is Dean Ambrose, we're in the same classes: history, music and math."
Roman smiled at him. Dean felt his heart beating so fast. "Why didn't you tell me? God, I feel like an idiot. You've been here all this time and I have not seen you. I'm sorry about that, Dean."
Why did his angel apologize? He had not done anything wrong.
"Don't worry, I wanted... I just..." God, Dean was too excited.
"You're so nervous..." Roman smiled at him and brought one of his hands to the other teenager's face. "It's adorable."
Dean was in awe. Roman had called him adorable. Then maybe as crazy as it sounded, maybe Dean had a chance to reach his angel.
"Roman!" Carmella, the captain of the cheerleaders team approached Roman. Obviously she had seen the interaction of the two young men and didn't even try to hide her face of disappointment. She was accompanied by Enzo the mascot of the team, and one of the most popular students and Cass, the captain of the football team and also Carmella's boyfriend. Seeing Dean all grimaced. "The coach decided to test you a chance to be part of the team! You must go now!"
Roman smiled so beautifully, he was happy to be a part of this football team too. "We'll talk later, Dean!" And Roman winked.
Roman walked away and Carmella and the two boys gave a look of real contempt to Dean.
"What are you doing talking to him? From the dreamy look you gave Roman, its pretty obvious you're crazy about him." Carmella scoffed.
"And what do you care?" Dean replied angrily.
"Everyone knows you Dean and no one wants you," Carmella continued her attack. "Whatever you feel for Roman, you must understand that people like us don't get along with people like you. Alexa, my best friend likes Roman and we will help her, so get out!"
"Roman is not like you guys!" Dean was sure about this.
He is an angel...
"He is with us, so even if he's not yet like us, he will be soon," Carmella assured him.
"Roman would never look at a frivolous, empty person like Alexa". Dean said defensively. "Besides he seemed pretty interested in me!"
Carmella let out a small laugh. "Even if Roman likes men. Just look at you, he would never notice you. If he doesn't like Alexa, we will introduce him to Finn Balor, the leader of the swimming team. He's charismatic, handsome and popular, anyone is better than you. You have no way to compete against us. Get out!"
"You want to control Roman like a puppet. You want to control everything around you!" Dean was angry.
But at that moment Roman came back from practice. Roman looked so happy that for a moment Dean forgot Carmella's insults and could only think of the young Samoan's smile. It was so stupidly obvious his crush on Roman. At that moment Alexa appeared out of nowhere so does Finn Balor. Carmella and the other kids surrounded Roman and all of them started to talk to him, leaving Dean behind.
Dean felt so disheartened. Carmella was right. It was stupid to try to reach a star, it was impossible. Dean turned and walked away from his angel. On leaving the football field, Dean turned his gaze and realized that Roman was laughing with the group of teenagers and had not even realized that Dean was no longer there.
…
I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
Dean looked at Roman from a distance. It was Friday, the incident with Carmella had happened on Monday and since then Roman had not come back to him. Roman and the group of teenagers were always together. They never lost sight of him and Dean had not been able to get close again. But it was not like Roman made any effort to get close to him. Alexa and Finn were all the time all over him and when Roman was not with one, was with the other.
Dean sighed and looked at himself in the glass of the cafeteria door. There was nothing special about him. He was even weird, he had that lunatic look as his classmates said, his hair was always messy and his clothes were the most common thing in the world. If Roman didn't look at Alexa, he would look at Finn for sure but Roman would never look at him. Dean sighed, Alexa and Finn were so beautiful, fit perfectly into the perfect world of cheerleaders and their friends. All so perfect on the outside and so rotten on the inside. They were going to destroy everything that made Roman his angel, they would make him a mere human.
Dean looked down with resignation. He definitely didn't have a chance. And it would be better to forget Roman. Besides, the raven-haired teenager had not spoken to him since that day. He heard the bell ringing, indicating to go to class, they had the math class. Dean felt that he couldn't be there to see Finn all over Roman, since they also shared that class.
The teenager of unruly hair walked to the football field. There was no one at this hour, he sat under the bleachers and sighed sadly.
"A penny for your thoughts".
Dean turned almost in disbelief and there was Roman behind him. And although Dean had intended to be strong, he couldn't help blushing and staring at him with helpless puppy eyes. After all, Roman was still his angel.
…
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special
"Finally, I have been able to get close to you." Roman said as if he had been trying. If he did, Dean never noticed. "But my friends don't let me breathe while I'm here at school. And in the afternoons I have to stay to practice football and catch up with the team. On weekends I work in my uncles' restaurant."
Dean was astounded. Was this happening?
"You have dimples!" Roman smiled so beautifully and it was then that Dean realized that he too had been smiling all this time. "I would have liked you to try to approach me again but if the mountain won't come to Muhammad..."
Dean was still speechless. Roman wanted to get close to him despite having people like Finn Balor or Alexa Bliss all the time over him. It was amazing.
"You have to tell me something, Dean. I feel like a fool talking to myself." Roman scratched the back of his neck. "Am I bothering you? If you want me to leave you alone."
"NO!" Dean said that so fast he nearly choked as he spoke. "I... I wanted to approach you but... your friends don't like me."
Roman looked down at the floor, embarrassed. "They are my friends but they are not the owners of my life. I've been trying to find out about you, but nobody tells me anything. What's that big mystery about you?"
Dean smiled more calmly. "There is no mystery. In fact there is nothing remotely interesting about me."
"You could let me judge that," Roman said nervously.
"What are you talking about?" Dean didn't understand.
"This afternoon I have no football practice and... God, why this is so difficult? This is the first time this is difficult for me." Roman was rambling. "You want to go out with me after school. I invite you to have lunch and take a walk around, maybe go to the movies."
Dean thought maybe he was dreaming. This was incredible. His angel did not just know that he existed. Besides, he wanted to go out with him. Was it a date? A date! That was too much and although Dean knew he shouldn't, he didn't even notice when the words came out of his mouth.
"Is it a date?" He asked nervously.
Roman smiled at the sweet expression on Dean's face.
"Yes. It's a date". Roman's voice was almost seductive. "Would you like?"
"I'd love to..." Dean felt he was in a dream.
"Then we'll see in the cafeteria two blocks away after school." Roman smiled. "For our date".
Dean nodded. They spent the rest of the hour talking about Roman's life. Dean felt confident and began to ask questions. He learned that Roman had four brothers, that he was the youngest of them and that they were in fact much older than him. Everyone lived in Hawaii, but Roman had insisted in come to the states because he wanted to apply for a scholarship at the university in that city to play football as well.
"If I can adapt and I behave well, they'll let me finish my studies here," Roman said happily.
And in every anecdote Roman told, in every word out of his mouth, Dean was more and more hypnotized by his angel. Roman had cast a spell on him since that afternoon when he saved his life and Dean knew he could not escape.
Is this what you call love at first sight?
And to see the smile of his angel and the sweet way he looked at him, as if there was no one else in the world than Dean. The auburn-haired teenager knew the answer to that question.
The bell rang indicating the next hour of class.
"I have to go to class," Roman said, smiling sweetly. "If I want to apply for a scholarship I can't be skipping classes. I must have a perfect record."
"Of course." Dean nodded a little sadly because Roman had to leave. But excited to know that they would have a date. "See you later".
"I'll be waiting." Roman said this genuinely excited and before he stood up, he kissed Dean on the cheek. "See you."
Dean couldn't see his own face but knew that his happiness could be seen until the moon.
…
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
Dean was very excited. He was going to have a date with his angel. He still couldn't believe it, the auburn-haired teen stared once more at the bathroom mirror in the cafeteria. How he wished to be like Finn Balor, the boy was perfect, athletic, and charismatic. Dean wondered how he had not been able to woo Roman.
Because Roman is an angel. He can see the inside of people not the outside.
Dean came out of the bathroom and there was Roman. As beautiful as a fantasy. Dean still had trouble assimilating that this was real. They sat at the table and ordered burgers and fries. It was Roman's turn to ask questions.
"Can I know why those guys attacked you?" Roman asked nervously.
Dean didn't want to talk about this. He was afraid Roman would think ill of him, after all he was about to engage in such despicable activity as selling drugs. But in the end he repented and paid dearly for it. He didn't want to lie to his angel, but... he didn't want him to judge him and what if he didn't believe him? Dean didn't know what to do.
"If you don't want to tell me, it's fine." Roman said trying to calm the nervous boy. "We can talk about other things."
Dean nodded in relief.
"Roman!" Finn Balor was in the same cafeteria. "I was buying some hamburgers to take home and I saw you here with... him"
And the way Finn said the last word was contemptuous. Dean shifted uncomfortably in his seat and Roman pursed his lips.
"That was rude, Finn." Roman said in a serious tone.
"It's not that I want to be rude but... I just don't understand why you're with him." Finn wasn't subtle.
Roman almost rolled his eyes. "We're on a date."
Finn's jaw almost hit the floor. "A date with Dean Ambrose of all people."
"Finn, I do not want to be rude but... I wish I could enjoy my date with Dean." Roman decided to use the same attitude as Finn.
Finn raised an eyebrow and smiled nervously. Dean had never seen a more false smile.
"See you on monday then," Finn said and left them alone.
After that, the afternoon passed quietly. Dean could not believe that Roman had put Finn in his place, that he had accepted that they had a date and that he was not ashamed. The auburn-haired teenager was living a dream.
After eating they went to a fair and Roman won a teddy bear for Dean. When Roman asked the other boy what plushie would he choose. Dean pointed to the older, battered bear in the group.
"But there are bears more beautiful than this," the owner of the game said.
"And they are so beautiful that surely someone will take them. If I don't take that teddy bear out of here, no one will." Dean said.
Roman was so overwhelmed by that gesture. Dean looked at that bear as if it were the most valuable thing in the world.
"What will you call it?" Roman pointed to the bear.
"Angel." Dean smiled and then tought: So that whenever I hug him I will remember you.
Roman smiled with such excitement, took Dean by the hand and both walked through a huge park. They talked about music, sports and various interests. Dean saw to his delight that he had many things in common with Roman.
A soft drizzle fell in the park and Roman took Dean's hand, both sought refuge inside a hollow log. Dean was somewhat soaked because he only wore a t-shirt. Roman had his football team jacket with him and put it on the young man's damp body.
"I don't want you to catch cold on our first date." Roman was so close to him that Dean could feel the heat of his body.
"You really are an angel." Dean said without thinking and realizing his words blushed a lot.
"An angel?" Roman stroked the other boy's cheek.
Dean closed his eyes and was so drunk on the sensations he was experiencing that he decided to say it all.
"That afternoon you saved me. I... I thought you were an angel."
"No one had ever called me that. Now I understand why I couldn't get you out of my mind." Roman admitted and sounded a little nervous.
"Have you thought of me?" Dean looked surprised.
"In fact, you're the only thing I've been thinking about." Roman admitted. "When I saw your eyes, the way you looked at me that afternoon I rescued you... Many people always look at me and they all do it as if they want to take something from me. Carmella, Finn, Alexa, they all look at me like that, but you ... you looked at me as if you want to give me all of yourself and that has me overwhelmed. I didn't know how to get close to you without looking like an idiot."
"But you are an angel. There's no way you're look like something different than an angel." Dean looked at Roman with such intensity.
"I can't stand it anymore. If you call me angel again I'll kiss you," Roman brought his lips to Dean's.
"Then I will not call you any other way than angel." Dean felt his cheeks burning.
The drizzle turned to a heavy rain and inside the hollow trunk, Roman kissed Dean sweetly. The auburn-haired teen couldn't believe that he, the weirdo, the loner had managed to reach an angel. Roman kissed him softly, as if afraid to break him and it was something so beautiful that Dean felt his heart was going to explode. The kiss was so sweet, so full of emotions and inexplicable feelings. Embraced under the trunk, they kissed again and again, as if both had been thirsty for each other's lips.
Late in the evening Roman left Dean at the door of his house in the most dangerous part of that neighborhood.
"I'm sorry you had to come here... I..." Dean was nervous.
"I don't care. It's even better if I know your house. I'll be visiting you often." Roman smiled sweetly.
Dean wanted to ask what they were. What all this meant, but he was afraid to scare Roman away and end the beautiful fantasy. Roman cocked his head and again kissed the young man, Dean moaned at the kiss and didn't realize that the door opened.
Someone cleared his throat. They separated.
"Uncle Terry..." Dean was nervous.
It was obvious that Dean's uncle was waiting for an explanation.
"Good evening, I am Roman Reigns I am..." Roman was nervous. "I am your nephew's boyfriend."
And hearing that, Dean thought he would die right there.
Terry smiled. "Well Dean turned 16 years a couple of months ago, it's okay to have a boyfriend and if you came here to show your face it should be something serious."
Roman smiled relieved. "It is…"
Dean didn't even try to hide his joy.
"Tomorrow I want to come visit Dean." Roman said more calmly.
"Of course. You look like a good boy. "Terry smiled. "Now you must go, it's night and this boy must go to sleep."
Roman smiled and not before giving a sweet kiss to Dean, he left the place.
…
She's running out again
She's running out
She run run run run
Run
The weekend was like a dream come true. Dean and Roman were together the whole time. Roman had asked for two days free to be with Dean and both of them could explore their feelings. So Sunday came and they were both in Dean's room, the auburn-haired young straddling Roman's hips. They kissed passionately.
"This is happening so fast, Dean." Roman moaned amid the kisses. "Can't get enough of you".
"The same thing happens to me, my angel. This is so powerful so... I can't explain it."
They both broke the kiss, but their faces were still close together, feeling the other's breathing.
"It's as if we've been predestined. As if I had found my soulmate." Roman said something nervous. "That's why I saved you, your soul called mine, and in spite of the horrible circumstance in which we met, I knew it."
"I feel the same, you're my angel and I just want to worship you." Dean said this and took a long breath. "It's what they call love at first sight, right? I thought tha was a lie people used to sell romantic novels, but it turned tio be real. This kind of love exists."
Roman ran his fingers over Dean's lips and sighed. "That's it. Love at first sight. I feel that we are connected so deeply that none of this was a coincidence. It's love, right?"
Dean nodded. "It's love."
And then the younger boy pulled away a little and took off his shirt.
Roman's pupils were very dilated, seeing the naked torso of his boyfriend. "You are so handsome".
I'm not. I'm just a creep, a weirdo and you... you're an angel.
Roman took off his shirt. Dean saw the tattoo on Roman's shoulder. "It's beautiful."
"I must complete it by the time I turn 18." Roman said. "It's family tradition."
"You will be even more beautiful then."
They both kissed again and that afternoon, in his old bed. The teenager gave himself to Roman.
None of them had done this before. For both it was their first time and although they were inexperienced, they were so synchronized that they could do it. Roman was inside his boyfriend and Dean moaned softly in pure pleasure.
"You see... you're an angel," Dean said through moans. "You're taking me to heaven."
Roman ran his hands through the soft skin of his boyfriend, almost in adoration. "I love you."
"I love you too," Dean replied.
Roman thrusted softly, claiming his boyfriend's body and between soft declarations of love, that afternoon they united their bodies and souls.
On Monday Roman and Dean came to school together. That day in the afternoon Roman had an important game, he had to be there to demonstrate his abilities and to continue having an unblemished record in that school. Dean was confident that Roman would impress everyone, he was so good. Besides, if Roman behaved well, his parents would let him study in that city and they could stay together.
Dean was nervous to appear taking Roman's hand in front of the whole school but the young Samoan was giving him support. Near the entrance of the school were the Jimmy and Jey accompanied by Finn Balor, Carmella and Cass and to everyone's surprise, also the police. As they approached they realized that the officers had detained Aj, Karl and Luke, the guys who had beaten Dean.
"Dean was the one who sold me the drug," a teenager who was neighbor of Dean pointed out.
"We were behind this net of drug dealers network and we captured all those involved. You're under arrest, boy". One of the cops grabbed Dean by the arm.
"So that's why they beat you." Roman was pale.
"No Roman! I can explain this. I swear I can explain this." Dean wanted to cry, he wanted to disappear.
"That's why we don't want Dean, Roman," Finn said with false sadness. "But it's good that you've heard the truth before you get involved with someone like him."
"Roman please, you must believe me." Dean begged.
"I believe you Dean." Roman nodded.
Dean was so relieved. "You're really an angel."
"I'm your angel, Dean. I'll get you out of this mess." Roman assured Dean.
Finn couldn't believe it. He pursed his lips and saw the police take Dean away and Roman trying to take a taxi to follow them.
In the afternoon everything cleared up. Dean confessed the truth, he indeed tried to sell the drug but regretted it. In fact another of the boys who wanted to buy the drug and that Dean refused to sell, confirmed the version and Dean was released with a fine that Terry had to pay.
Roman was waiting outside the precinct.
"My angel!"
Dean ran into his boyfriend's arms and Roman welcomed him. They both hugged each other tightly and kissed each other. Terry smiled.
"I hope you don't get yourself into trouble again. Do it for us." Roman said softly.
Dean nodded. "I love you so much. I promise never again..."
"Roman!" The boy's uncles were livid.
"You missed school day. You missed the game too!" Roman's aunt said angrily.
Roman had not even thought about that when he went after Dean. The auburn-haired young man put his hands to his face in despair.
"All for being with this boy who is a delinquent!" Roman's uncle shouted angrily. "Your friends told us the kind of guy Dean Ambrose is. You are throwing your life away and we won't be responsible for that."
Roman was pale. "What are you talking about?"
"You're 16, you're underage yet. It's several months before you turn seventeen and we don't want to see how you destroy your life. We talked to your parents and you're going back to Hawaii!" Roman's uncle said very angry.
And in spite of Roman's insistence and his pleas, his uncles took them from there. Dean had to see how the adults separated them, without allowing him to explain anything.
The next day Dean was in school but there were no traces of Roman. Jimmy and Jay refused to give him news of their cousin, much less to hear an explanation. Finn and Carmella had been responsible for spreading rumors and now Dean was known as a drug dealer. His reputation was more on the ground.
At lunchtime, Finn walked over to Dean. "His parents will take him in two days. They're not going to let him ruin his life with someone like you."
"But he loves me!" Dean was shouting, catching the attention of several students. "You always have to ruin everything good in my life. Why?"
"Because someone like you doesn't belong to our world and you managed to get in my way. Now you know, life is like that, no matter how hard you try, you'll always be the weirdo, the loner and you'll never be part of anything. You were ambitious to put your eyes on someone who isn't for you and you lost Dean. And thanks to you he lost too. Now both know that there is no way to mix water and oil."
Dean got to his feet and smashed his fist into Finn's face. Then he lunged at him. Shortly afterwards, the teachers separated them and now, to make matters worse, Dean had been expelled from school.
He was in his room, after his expulsion his uncle had punished him. He couldn't communicate with Roman and the love of his life would return to Hawaii in two days.
"Everything went so bad... Finn was right. Roman was an angel and it was silly to believe that I could reach him. However I will never forget those moments when I could have him. I will never forget that he saved me, that he taught me to love."
...
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special
Dean was desperate, in the morning Roman would be taken to Hawaii. They had not been able to communicate and now that Dean had been expelled, the auburn-haired boy had no doubt that Roman's cousins would have already told their parents and Roman's parents that Dean had assaulted Finn by worsening his bad reputation. Dean could not take it anymore and ran away in the middle of the night when his uncle was asleep.
Arriving at Roman's house was difficult. He lived in the rich part of the city. Anyway Dean was able to arrive at dawn and Roman had already told him where his room was. Dean climbed a tree and jumped toward the window, it was risky and if he failed, he could have broken some bone but he didn't care. He only hoped he had not gotten the wrong window when he started knocking it.
Roman was not asleep, he was actually looking at his phone, seeing pictures of him and Dean. The auburn-haired young man had no phones and certainly didn't use technology, had no social networks and had no way of communicating. When he heard the knocks on the window, Roman turned on the lamp and saw Dean. He immediately opened the window and helped his boyfriend in.
They both hugged each other tightly.
"I've missed you so much, Dean. I know they expelled you and I'm sure Finn provoked you."
Dean smiled in spite of the awful situation. Roman never distrusted him, never believed the things that others told him.
"You are my angel you will always be my angel." Dean buried his face in the older boy's chest. "They will take you so far from me, so far away that there is no way I can go for you."
"We should escape," Roman said desperately. "I have some savings and I don't know, Dean. I don't know what to do."
At that moment Dean realized the situation that was unfolding around them. He realized that no matter how much he loved him, this was not going to end well, especially for Roman. Their love was beautiful and pure but... it was not suitable for Roman and he was his angel, he could not afford to ruin his life for someone like him. Sometimes you have to make sacrifices for the people you love. Even if that means losing them.
"We're 16 years old, we wouldn't get very far and it would be even worse." Dean said trying to hold back the tears. "You have a beautiful future, you have everything to be happy and succesful. You are so beautiful and intelligent and you have a good heart. You're so special, so fucking special and I wish I was special. I'd like to be someone who fits your perfect world and we could be together, but I'm not. You even want to run away and that would only ruin your life even more."
"But I don't want to lose you and all that of different worlds is pure crap. Dean, that's not true, don't tell me you believe those things." Roman said desperately.
"I wish I didn't believe it, but in our case these things are true," Dean admitted sadly. "Since you've been with me everything has gone so badly. You came here in search of your dream and now you cannot do it because you fell in love with me."
"Then you're going to give up just like that." Roman pulled away from Dean with tears in his eyes.
"I don't want to ruin your life. You and I don't belong to the same world. Just look how hard we tried!"
"I thought you loved me, I thought we were soul mates. I don't even understand what you're doing here. I thought you were coming to fight for us and you came to... to break my heart."
"I came to fight for us, but I have realized that I can't ruin your future. I can't keep on taking opportunities from you because I want to hold you by my side. You can't see that if I do this it's because I love you!" Dean was crying and screaming. "Many times love is a selfish feeling, but I can't feel something like that for you. I can't tie you by my side and see how you keep losing things. And anyway it would be useless because they will separate us."
Roman's uncles heard the screams and started knocking on the door. Roman was crying and Dean was crying too.
"You're so fucking special. I wish I was special," Dean murmured.
Roman approached the other teen and they both kissed, it was a kiss full of pain and sadness and yet it was beautiful in its own way.
"I love you Roman, I really love you. You are my angel and I will never stop loving you. But I hope you stop loving me and you can get on with your life and be happy." Dean said coming out the window.
"And what about you? Don't you want to be happy?" Roman watched as the love of his life was walking away from his... life.
"I was happy when I met you. When you saved me. I was happy knowing that you love me. I was happy when I gave myself to you and I am happy now that I know I won't ruin your life." Dean smiled with sadness. "If we are soul mates we will meet again. When nothing can stops us from being together."
Dean went out the window leaving Roman with his broken heart, as broken as his own. But in spite of everything Roman understood the magnitude of the sacrifice Dean was doing.
...
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
I don't belong here
A month had passed and Dean had no news of Roman. He didn't dare ask Jimmy or Jay. They would not tell him anything anyway. They were angry with Dean, blaming him for his cousin having to go back to Hawaii. Finn had found a new love interest, a sweet boy named Sami that Dean looked almost pityingly. It was obvious he was a good boy and Finn was going to hurt him. But there was nothing he could do.
Dean was on one of the computers at the school. He had figured out how to create a Facebook and in fact had succeeded. Once he got it, he looked for Roman. It was not difficult to find him because his name was not common. He saw the profile pic and it was a picture of both of them. Dean wanted to cry.
So, Roman was waiting for them to communicate, he was waiting for him. Dean closed his eyes. Roman was his angel and he certainly loved him and wanted to be with him even if he was at a distance. Dean was about to send him a friend request, it was the way to stay in touch.
"I'm still a weirdo and he's an angel. What the hell I'm doing here..." Dean sighed. "Roman has a great future and I... I sometimes don't even have the way to help my uncle to pay the rent. The only thing that would cause him would be worries. I must be strong and let him be happy, in the world to which he belongs with people equal to him. I almost ruined his life once and I wouldn't do it."
In the end, Dean didn't send the friend request and actually the teenager deleted his newly created Facebook account. He returned to his house where his uncle had prepared his favorite food. Terry was trying to make his life more bearable, now that he knew that Roman had returned to Hawaii. Dean was grateful for that.
The teenager lay on his bed and hugged the teddy bear tightly. The bear he called angel, the only memory of his other angel.
"If we are soul mates we will meet again. When nothing stops us from being together." Dean kissed the stuffed animal. "When I am no longer a weirdo and I can belong to your world."
I am sorry…
If you like this idea and want more one shots leave a review and of course fav and follow. I think the next story is going to be inspired by "Promises" by Megadeth (I know I already have a fanfic with that name lol but that fic is not based on the song) Thanks for your support and leave me a review with your opinions.
