Dean got home and quickly turned on his computer

Dean-
Seth.... I fucked up!!

He sat patiently waiting for his friend to reply.. He sat up in his seat as he saw his friend was replying.

Seth-
Man!! What happened!!! :o

Dean-
I think I made Roman mad today :(

Seth-
Why do you think that? come on Dean!! What did you do? *rolls eyes*

Dean-
Well.. I saw him today talking to AJ (that jerk) and when we spoke in class as ya know.. he sat next to me again >.< But we were talking and I asked what he was talking to AJ about.. Like an idiot...

Seth-
Noisy much Dean?? But go on..

Dean-
I know!! Why did I even ask?! Well he said "He asked if I wanted to join the football team" Then was all like "Why did you wanna know anyway..?" And I blurted out "Because AJ's a jerk" ....... Then he said "Oh I see I wasn't gonna join anyway" then he never spoke to me the rest of the lesson.... :( Think I messed up!!

Seth-
Omg Dean!! You really know how to say the wrong thing.. :/ *shakes head* well... Did he look or act mad?

Dean-
Um... I dunno.. He is really hard to read.. Like maybe a little confused! Sure he doesn't think I am a total weirdo now.. Right? :(

Seth-
Sure it will be fine Dean! You were just wondering I guess.. But maybe next time don't ask questions and just get to know the guy! :D

Dean-
Ok.. I'll do that! Haha!! I'm such an idiot!! :( *sighs heavily*
sooooo Overwatch?

Seth-
Heck Yeah!! Lets do this!! xD See you there!

Dean spent the night playing online games with Seth, his head hit the pillow just after midnight. He loved how Seth was his best friend, he just wished he had a best friend who he could see, go out places with.. But Nope.

The next morning Dean woke up as his alarm ringed though out his room, he rolled around on his bed whining. He really did not want to go to school today, then again when did he ever want to go. He finally reached over grabbing his phone shutting off the alarm, he crawled out his bed and slipped on some clothes, dark ripped jeans, a grey t-shirt and a black jacket. He brushed out his long pink hair, and tied it in a pony tail like always, picked up his bag throwing his cap in there then left his room. He walked into the kitchen looking in the cupboards for food, he found a yoghurt in the fridge which was probably his moms, but he shrugged and ate it anyway. He put his sneakers on, picked up his bag and left the house.

——————————————————

Dean arrived at the school pretty early that morning, he looked at the time on his phone as he pulled it out his jean pocket it was only 8:40am school didn't start till 9:00am. He was never usually early, so he wasn't sure what he did different today, he walked slowly though the school's parking lot thinking to himself 'Maybe I wanted to see Roman.. He was early the other day.. But I hadn't even thought of it?" He shrugged and looked around seeing if he could see the one who was on his brain. Dean sighed a little as he couldn't see the one who his heart desired, he sat on a bench which was situated between the school building and the carpark as he waited for the school bell.

A few minutes passed, many cars had been pulling into the car park as students showed up to school. Then as Dean looked up he saw a grey car pull up just outside the car park, and the one Dean had been waiting to see stepped out. He leaned in talking to whoever was in the car before he shut the door and walked towards the school, Dean stood up and decided he should walk so it didn't look like he was oddly waiting for him. In that moment Dean remembered that he felt like he had annoyed Roman yesterday when he asked him about AJ, now he felt awkward about approaching him but he was too close now to turn away. Roman got closer so Dean looked up and waved a little smiling, He observed Roman he was wearing Jeans, and a zipped up hoodie which covered his dark t-shirt.

Roman left his mom walking toward the school he wasn't as early as yesterday as his mom was running late for work, but Roman wasn't fussed he didn't like being early anyway. As Roman walked he saw Dean not too far away from him waving, he saw the others friendly smile so he smiled back. Usually everyone was grouchy in the morning but Dean always seemed to be happy, which was different and Roman liked different he couldn't deny it. As Roman approached he said warmly "Morning Dean!" Which made Dean smile more, it seemed that Roman was glad to see him. He didn't seem at all mad about their last conversation, it made Deans heart swell a little when he saw his smile. Dean replied when his brain started working again "Hey Roman! Hows it going..?" Roman answered soon after "Good!! You seem cheery in the morning!" Dean looked away a little hoping there was no blush creeping over his face "Well.. I woke up in a good mood today!" Roman nodded and chuckled a little as the two turned and walked to the school building as the bell rang signalling it was class time.

Dean liked being around Roman, he couldn't help how happy he became when he was near. He knew he may not like him in the way he was liking him but he wanted to see how far he could get to being close to him. He spoke again "What lesson do you have now?" Roman didn't actually know, he had not looked, he swung his bag off his back and searched for the paper that told him what his lessons were "um.. I have english.. How about you?" He turned looking at Dean, The other stared back at Roman accidentally almost getting lost in his brown eyes. Roman stared back but looked away not too long after, he was confused as to why Dean was staring for so long and had not replied to him.

He felt his cheeks grow warmer and internally cursed himself 'What was that.. And why the fuck are you blushing!?' he was snapped from his thoughts as Dean replied softly "I.. I have english too, we are in the same class remember" Dean knew Roman had caught Dean gazing.. And he was a little embarrassed.. He couldn't help it, it was the first time he had gotten a proper look at Romans eyes, and god they were pretty. He uttered lowly "Roman.. " The other had not heard as he had already turned away and headed to the class. Dean walked into the class and walked to the back of the class taking a seat, he sat on a desk near to Roman. Dean felt awkward again, he felt like he didn't know what to say and Roman was not looking his way. Dean felt like he had weirded Roman out, maybe he did not like men.. As now he was acting a little odd towards him. Dean scrambled his thoughts to see what he should say to Roman as a cover up, as that was so obvious that it was embarrassing.

But before Dean could get any words out and the teacher had now started the lesson, he sighed heavily and felt like smacking his head against the desk saying in his head 'What is wrong with you Dean!! You always make stuff weird!' He looked down in his text book and tried to not think too deeply about it. Roman sat and tried to concentrate on the lesson, but his brain just keep taking him back to how Dean appeared to of been lost in his eyes just moments ago. He looked down at his desk trying to shake the thoughts that crept in his mind, thinking of how he thought Dean looked so cute as he gazed at him he closed his eyes thinking to himself 'Stop! Stop! Stop!.. I don't want to like him.. Stop thinking that.. Do you want to get hurt again?' He opened his eyes and looked to the front of the class again.

Dean looked over at Roman, he really didn't want to ruin anything that had been started between them. He tore a little piece from his note book and wrote down something quickly, he breathed out a little to settle himself 'Dean just do it' he said internally. He turned back to Roman and slid the small note onto his desk, Roman looked down at it and then looked back at the other seeing an apologetic look on his face. He read the note

Roman tilted his head a little.. Wondering what he meant by it. Was he talking about the incident that had just happened? Dean gazing at him as he liked him.. Which Roman already knew.. He didn't have to say sorry though. He wrote under Deans writing, And placed it back on Deans desk. Dean picked up the note reading it,

He frowned a little as he was sure Roman knew why, He turned the paper over and  thought of what to write back. when he was done he once again placed it on Romans desk, Roman looked at it reading the reply.

Roman looked over at Dean shaking his head a little as he quickly jotted back placing the paper once again on Deans desk checking first that the teacher was not looking, Dean looked down at the writing reading it to himself.

The smiley face made Dean grin a little. He looked back at Roman with a small smile he felt better upon seeing the other return a smile. Roman went back to focusing on the lesson, Dean thought he had better try at least write some work down this lesson and started jotting things on his work book.

Not too long after the lesson was over, Dean looked over all he had worked on that lesson, he was pretty surprised he had written down so much. He packed his stuff away quickly then looked Romans way, he hoped the other was warming up to him and wondered what class he had next. Roman was still feeling a little weird over the thing that had happened between him and Dean just before the lesson, he had told Dean it was fine and they were 'cool' but his mind would not stop thinking of it. He was fighting with himself, he kept seeing flash backs of Deans wide blue eyes staring back into his. He told himself over and over how he did not want to be attracted to Dean, he couldn't.. He needed to be alone.. But he was feeling something for Dean and that fact scared him.

Dean stood up and saw how Roman was still sitting in his seat, he stepped closer "Hey Roman..? You ready to go?" Roman then was once again snapped from his thoughts. He looked up at Dean then looked away quickly putting his stuff into his bag, he got up before he replied "Yeah! Ready" he headed out the class he wasn't even sure what class he has next he just wanted to be away from Dean. He knew Dean would call him back if he just walked off, he really didn't know what to do. As he headed out the room and turned the corner he bumped into someone, he looked up and saw it was AJ Styles. He had not seen him since the day before, he had hoped he had continued to of not seen the other as he knew he wanted an answer to if he wanted to join the football team. AJ looked up, he was about to react negatively to the person who just hit into him but as he saw it was Roman so he stopped himself. Roman stepped back a little "Sorry about that AJ" he chuckled looking at the other, AJ already had a smile present on his face as he replied "Man its cool!" He laughed, he run his hand though his hair pushing it out of is face. He Continued talking "Hey have you got a 'Yes' for me yet? Ya know about joining the team?' He looked at the other thinking to himself that Roman would obviously be like all the rest and badly want to be on the team.

Dean swung his bag on his back and followed Roman out of the class, he was about to rush after him and ask what class he had next but he stopped in his tracks. He saw AJ, that one person he didn't want Roman talking to. He quickly slipped past them and hurried up the hallway, he sighed heavily as he said to himself 'AJ!! Why can't you just disappear' he had to ruin everything. AJ saw Dean, he saw how he reacted when he saw Roman with him and he found it to be amusing. He also found it funny how Dean hurried away, AJ thought to himself 'Yeah! Keep walking Pinky!'. He didn't want Roman being his friend, he wanted Roman to be a key player in the football team and he didn't want a soon to be 'cool' guy on the football team to be frowned upon for being around an utter loser like Dean. Of course there was always the fact that he just didn't like him, making Deans life a misery was always one of AJ's favourite games.
