A/N: Rolleigns is one of my favorite pairings, but there are unfortunately not a lot of fics about them.

I want to change that, so I decided to start a collection of unrelated Rolleigns one-shots.

Some will be M rated and some (like this one) will not be.

Some will follow WWE story lines and some will be AU.

They will also vary in length.

I will update this whenever I get inspiration.

This idea was inspired by that picture of Seth's bruised eye and from my friend Krys.

Here's the summary for this one-shot: Seth doesn't feel so pretty after getting a black eye.

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the wrestlers, they all belong to WWE. If I owned Seth or Roman, I'd never leave my apartment.

Battle Scar

Seth Rollins frowns when he looks at his reflection. His normally perfect good looks are marred by a black eye. Seth tries to cover it with makeup, but the ugly bruise just won't disappear. He's going to a club with his boyfriend Roman and a few of their co-workers. Seth doesn't feel attractive and he would much rather stay in, but Roman really wants to go out.

"Are you ready to go?" Roman checks.

"I'm as ready as I'm ever going to be," Seth murmurs to himself.

John, Evan, Randy, and Cody are already at the bar by the time that Roman and Seth make it to the club. They all greet each other with hugs and handshakes and then John orders a round of drinks for everyone. Roman pokes fun at Seth for drinking a girly cocktail like he always does. Seth playfully sticks his tongue out as he sips his delicious Cosmo. John and Evan go the dance floor while Randy and Roman go to the bathroom. Cody turns to Seth and he notices that Seth isn't his usual happy self.

"What's wrong, Seth?" Cody wants to know.

"Nothing," Seth lies.

"I'm your best friend. I can tell when you're lying. Tell me what's bothering you," Cody tells him.

"Roman and I haven't had sex since my eye got injured," Seth blurts out.

"So you're sexually frustrated?" Cody surmises.

"It's not that. I just feel like he doesn't find me attractive since I have this black eye," Seth explains.

"What? I really doubt that. You're still hot, Seth," Cody assures him.

"But—"

Seth doesn't finish his sentence because he sees Roman and Randy approaching. Seth watches Randy and Cody kiss and he feels jealous. Roman hasn't touched him in a while and Seth feels unwanted and a little frustrated. The bartender brings Roman another beer. He says that the blue eyed, short haired blonde at the end of the bar bought it for him. Roman and Seth look in the direction that the bartender points out. A guy that looks like an adorable twink porn star waves and winks at Roman.

"I'll be back," Roman says.

Roman leaves before Seth can ask him where he's going. Seth feels uneasy when he notices Roman walking toward the cute guy who sent him a drink. Seth reluctantly watches Roman smile at and talk to the stranger. Seth frowns when Roman grabs the guy's hand and leads him to the dance floor. Seth downs the rest of his drink and he walks to the exit because he needs some fresh air. Seth is taking deep breaths to calm himself down when Cody finds him outside the club.

"I can't deal with him tonight. Can I stay with you and Randy?" Seth asks.

"Yeah, of course," Cody answers.

Seth hates that he has to go to the hotel room that he shares with Roman. In his haste to completely avoid Roman last night, he forgot to grab his clothes and toiletries from his room. He puts his key in the door and he closes it quietly. He's grateful that Roman is still sleeping. He gathers his belongings silently and hopes to slip out undetected. Seth is out of luck because Roman opens his eyes before Seth leaves.

"Hey," Roman greets after he yawns.

"I just came to get my stuff," Seth snaps as he turns the door knob.

"Wait. We need to talk about last night," Roman says.

Seth closes the door and faces Roman. "I need to know one thing. Did you fuck that guy?"

"What? Of course not!" Roman responds.

"I bet you wanted to, though," Seth retorts.

"I thanked him for the drink and I told him that I was taken. He said ok and then he asked for a platonic dance. That's all that happened. I went looking for you afterward and that's when I got the text saying that you were staying with Cody and Randy," Roman replies.

"I saw you flirting with him and I got so fucking jealous! You haven't looked at me with lust in your eyes since I got this shiner. I thought that maybe you didn't find me desirable anymore and . . . "

Seth trails off when Roman gets out of the bed and walks closer to him. Roman cups Seth's face in his large hands and he tucks the stray strands of hair behind Seth's ear. He traces the bruise under Seth's eye with his fingers before he gently kisses the dark mark. Seth's eyes instinctively close in bliss. Roman's lips slowly move down to Seth's mouth. He runs his fingers through the long two-toned locks as he nips at Seth's succulent bottom lip. Roman stops the kiss before he gets carried away.

Roman tenderly caresses the blemish. "This is a battle scar and it's beautiful just like the rest of you."

"If my black eye isn't the problem, then why have you barely touched me?" Seth questions.

"Because I know that you're hurt, Seth. You've been trying to hide it from me and everyone else, but I'm not fooled. I don't want to put your body through any more stress," Roman explains.

"But I love the kind of pain that you give me," Seth lets him know.

"I know. You like it rough. Do you really want to come up with a lie about why you're limping though?" Roman wonders.

Seth nods. "Yes. I know that it will be worth it."
