Dean's POV

I groaned as I glanced at the clock on the side table.

3:03 AM

I was three minutes into the so called devils hour and it seemed to be as though Satan himself was depriving me of sleep and I was about to show that dirty old bastard just who he the fuck he was messing with.

I gave a annoyed groan as I sat up straight in the bed. After hopping into to the shower to take care of the problem that I had earlier, I couldn't find it in me to fall back to sleep.

I mumbled a few choice words before pulling my covers back and climbing out of the bed.

I slipped on my slides and grabbed my jacket off of the chair I had threw it on earlier that evening before exiting the room.

Roaming random hotels at early hours of the morning was not a foreign activity to me. During my Indy days, and even during my Shield days, I did this often. Sleep was something that never just came to me and I had a hard time finding it some nights, so I would simply roll out of bed and wander around the courtyard or the lobby. The first few times I did it, it gave Seth and Roman a near heart attack because they were unsure of my whereabouts, but they eventually grew accustomed to it and actually excepted me to leave.

Then Seth entered my life as more than just a stable member. Suddenly I could sleep all throughout the night if he laid next to me.

And now that he wasn't here... neither was my sleep.

I sighed as I placed my hood on my head as I reached the elevator, then pressed the down arrow and waited for the door to open.

After a few moments, the door opened and one person was inside holding a coffee cup in his hand, scarf around his neck.

"Top of the mornin." Finn said as his eyes squinted as though he were smiling behind the scarf.

I avoided eye contact with the older man as I entered the elevator. After imagining him how I had earlier, it was a bit hard to look at him...

"Not much as a morning person huh?" He asked me and seconds later, the cup he was holding was directly in my face, "Coffee?"

"Aren't you gonna drink it?" I mumbled as I gently pushed the cup away from my face.

"Nope." He said plainly, "I just like the smell of it."

"So you got an entire cup of coffee... for the smell?" I questioned him while finally glancing in his direction.

He nodded, "Yep. It smells divine. I'm just not a big fan of the flavor."

"That's strange." I mumbled as the elevator doors closed and the elevator went up instead of down, "Where's this thing going?"

"To my floor." He told me, "Where are you going?"

"Wandering." I said with a shrug and he cocked his head a bit.

"Sounds a bit dangerous to be wandering around in the dark dontcha think?" He asked me and I shrugged, "Just come to my room."

I raised a brow and he laughed, "I ain't gonna touch ya Ambrose. It's just safer than wandering around outside."

"And since when have you been worried about my safety?" I questioned and he shrugged.

"I wasn't till now." He commented as the elevator stopped and the doors opened, "Come on. I still got that extra bed."

***

"Why do you wear that stupid scarf?" I questioned Finn as he set the coffee next to the TV.

He shrugged, "Its cold."

"No it's not."

"You're wearing a jacket."

"I'm always wearing a jacket."

"And I'm always wearing a scarf. You just never notice it. Maybe its because you've never noticed me."

"I've never heard of you a day in my life until about 12 hours ago." I stated plainly and he laughed while taking his scarf off.

"Well I actually think that's great." He said, "At least you're honest."

I rolled my eyes as he picked up the coffee, then walked over to me, settting it on the side table next to the bed I sat on before popping the top off of it.

"You can drink it." He told me, "I just wanted to smell it a bit."

I simply shook my head as he hummed and walked towards the bathroom.

"So I've given you a ride," he said as he closed the bathroom door, "And I let you stay in my room. What's next?"

"You didn't have to do either." I mumbled.

"Yet I did both out of the kindness of my heart." He said with a small laugh, "Honestly it's no big deal. But I must say, I think you're starting to like me."

"In your dreams." I shot at him, "I barely know you."

He gave another laugh and I rolled my eyes once again before laying back on the bed.

It wasn't any more comfortable than the bed I was just in, but I believe my sleep was finally catching up with me.

"So." I heard Finns voice comment only seconds later before the bathroom door opened, "How long have you and Seth been together? Did you get together before the shield, during the shield, after? When?"

I shrugged, "About two years after shield broke up."

"Oh wow." I heard him comment, "So it had been a while. Did you two still talk after you three broke up?"

I scoffed, "Of course. I don't understand why people thought we actually all stopped being friends. Yeah, we couldn't hang out with each other in the public eye, but we were all still cool with each other. We usually still roomed together. We weren't about to stop being friends over a storyline."

"Didn't Roman use to like you?"

"Roman Reigns = Randy Orton."

"But didn't he like you-"

"Roman = Randy."

"But you never answered-"

"Reigns = Orton." I interrupted once again, "We do not speak of the times before they got together. But to answer your question, yes. He liked me and I... didn't know if I liked him back. He's a great guy, but he better as my best friend."

Finn simply laughed and for the first time I glanced over at him, nearly chocking on my spit in the process.

"You ok?" He asked with a small laugh.

"Where the hell did your shirt go?" I asked as I stared at him.

He laughed, "Its on the bathroom floor. Like what you see?"

"I mean, sure." I said with a small shrug, "You look alright. Nothing like Seth, but your ok."

"I'm crushed." He said while giving me a pouty lip.

"Get over it." I said with a shrug and he laugh.

"You sound like Nia." He told me as he walked over to his bag.

"Nia?" I asked him, "Is that the girl on Raw?"

He nodded with a smile, "Yeah. She's my best friend. She's always telling me to get over something. I can't go a full day without hearing her saying it. I bet money that if I texted her a pitty party story right now she'd tell me to suck it up and get over it."

I nodded, "Seth's mentioned he'd before. She looks nice."

He scoffed, "She's mean... well to me that is. Probably because I annoy her to no end."

"Then leave her alone." I said with a shrug.

"I can't." He protested, "She's my companion. Every guy needs a good girl companion. I have Nia. You have Renee. Who does Roman have? Or maybe Seth."

I shrugged, "Me and Roman share Renee. But Roman and his cousins wife Naomi are pretty good friends too. I guess Seth's is Nikki, but they barley have the chance to speak since they're on separate brands now."

'But he certainly had time to speak to AJ.' I thought to myself and shook my head.

"You're thinking about Seth aren't you?" I heard Finn ask and I sighed.

"Is it that obvious?" I mumbled, then felt a weight on the bed next to me. I glanced over to see that Finn now wore a shirt and was sitting upright on the bed next to me.

"No." Finn told me, "It was just a lucky guess... but I can tell it's bothering you."

I was quiet for a few minutes before sitting up and sighing.

"I'm just confused." I mumbled, "Why would he go out of his way just to sleep with someone else? I was right there. I could have satisfied him. Or maybe I couldn't and that's why he did it."

Finn shook his head, "I don't think so. I think he loves you, but he just made a stupid mistake. We all do. And sometimes the mistake is bigger than other mistakes, but it's still a mistake."

I sighed and brushed my hair back, "I don't know..."

"Well you still have feelings for him, right?" He asked me and I shrugged.

"I love him." I admitted, "But I felt like he was just using me. Maybe us being together wasn't meant to be. I could love someone else... I think."

Finn was quiet for a moment before grabbing my hand.

"What are you doing?" I asked him.

"Tell me what you feel." He told me.

"I feel you holding my hand." I said as I gave him a confused glance.

"What about now?" He asked as he released my hand and began to rub my arm.

"I feel you rubbing arm." I told him.

"Ok." He said as he stopped, "Don't freak out. Just let me do something ok? Trust me."

"What are you doing-" I started to asked but he hushed me.

"Just trust me Dean." He said with a small smile as he inched closer to me.

His eyes looked into mine as he came closer to me, stopping only when the tip of our noses met. I attempted to turn my head but he used his index finger to turn it back towards him.

"Just trust me." He said quietly before his lips gently pressed against my own.

My body immediately stiffened at the contact, but Finn made no move to touch anything more than my lips.

He broke the kiss seconds later, but didn't move his face away from my own.

"How'd that feel?" He asked me.

"It felt weird." I mumbled.

"Weird as in?" He questioned me.

"Weird as in fucking awkward." I said while rolling my eyes, "You randomly kiss me. What am I supposed to think?"

He gave a small laugh, "Well, let's make it less awkward. Kiss me back."

"Finn, I don't-"

"Just do it." He interrupted with a small laugh before silencing me with another kiss, a bit rougher this time.

I was reluctant to kiss him back, yet I found myself doing so as he placed a hand on my cheek.

His tongue traced across my bottom lip and I opened my mouth to grant his request.

Our tongues fought for dominance and I was determined to outdo him but he caught me by surprise when he suddenly broke the kiss and swiftly straddled my waist.

"What are you-" I began to ask breathlessly but he silenced me when his lips crashed onto my own, his tongue immediately slipping into my mouth and dominating my own.

I growled a bit but it seemed to fade as our lips moved in sync.

I allowed myself to lay back on the bed with Finns lips still connected with mine and his hands now in my hair.

After a moment he gave a grunt before breaking the kiss, still straddling my waist as he sat up.

"How'd that feel?" He said breathlessly.

"You expect me to react to that?" I said as I attempted to catch my breath, "What was your plan, huh?"

"Answer the question." He said with a breathless laugh and I was silent for a moment.

"It felt..." I thought for a moment, "Soft. Sweet. A bit rough. Lustful."

"That's it?" He asked me.

"Was there something I was suppose to feel?" I asked him and he just laughed.

"No," he told me, "I just need to know if that's all you felt. I mean, I could continue, but it'd probably end with me grinding myself on you a bit."

"Get off of me." I mumbled while pushing the man off of me and he managed to laugh again, "That's all I felt."

He groaned as he rolled onto his back, "Then you can't love anyone else."

I raised a eyebrow, "What?"

"You said that you could find someone else to love." He said to me, "Dean. I'm a very passionate man. These lips have brought women as well as men to their knees."

I rolled my eyes, "You don't say?"

He laughed, "I'm serious. I've had people tell me that they loved me on the first night just from one kiss. I just made out with you, straddled your waist and almost rode your dick and you just registered it as lust."

"You weren't about to fucking ride me." I shot at him then glanced him over once, "Right?"

He laughed, "Maybe."

I rolled my eyes, "Whatever."

"The point is," he told me, "You weren't in love with that. Sure, you may have liked it-"

"I didn't."

He gave another laugh, "Well maybe not. But what if that would have been Seth? How would that have felt if that were his lips on you. His hands on you."

I thought for a moment and bit my lip at the thought, "I... would have liked it a lot more."

"Loved it?" He asked me and I sighed.

"Yeah..." I mumbled, "I would have loved it."

He smiled, "See? You can't love anyone else. Lust for, maybe, but love? No, that's special for Seth."

"Well now I feel guilty." I mumbled, "I'm still with Seth and I just let you fucking touch me."

For the first time ever, Finn rolled his eyes, "He cheated on you on several occasions. You had one make out session and barely even liked it. I think it'll be ok Dean."

I rolled my eyes but sighed, seeing that he had a point.

"So how did you feel with doing all that shit?" I asked him and he gave a small laugh.

"Want me to be honest?"

"Duh, dumbass."

"I got a bit hard..." he admitted then smirked, "It'd be nice if we-"

"Hell no." I told him while standing up, "It looks like you got a problem to take care of and that's my cue to leave."

He gave a laugh as I made my way to the door. "I'll see you in a bit Ambrose."

I shook my head with a small smile, "Goodbye Assface."

"Skipped right past Asshole huh?" He asked as I placed my hand on the door knob.

"Next name is Dipshit." I called out to him.

"And then Daddy is just around the corner." I heard him comment as the door shut behind me.
