Becky's P-O-V

Depressed, devastated and broken, I had lost all my interests in the concept of Valentines. What is the meaning of love if there's no Dean?

And now, he hates me. He even broke the little cord that attached us with each other. We're over!

But, what he didn't know was it isn't really possible to wipe out the memories of two years in few days. But, alas! Memories are all I have right now.

Dean isn't even coming for two days. Yes, I'm worried as hell but I guess I've lost every right to call him too.

I don't know if he'd come today. It's Valentines day in two days. I hope St. Valentine would at least assure me that he's fine.

My cab stopped near the Shield. I paid the driver and made my way towards the entrance.

The evergreen full of life office became a stranger to me in past two days.

I just couldn't concentrate on things anymore. Moreover, Dean's absence made it worse. It was like my life was stuck in an absolute zero.

I made my way to the elevator unconsciously. There were two other people with me. The elevator door was about to get closed but then suddenly a boot came in between and the lift doors opened wide to reveal..

.. Dean! My heart jumped immediately.

His hairs were shabbier than ever. There were dark circles under his eyes and he looked a little pale.

Is he okay?

His eyes fell on me and he hesitated to get inside the same elevator. However, there was another guy Jade alongside him.

So, he looked at Jade and got inside.

I stood there awkwardly as Dean stood inches beside me, not at all looking my way.

The elevator stopped in the next floor and few more people entered, causing a crowd inside.

Following a sudden shake-up Dean's arm brushed against me and I tripped a little. Strangely enough, I heard Dean wince as I held myself against the wall of the elevator and balance myself. I looked at him but he looked away immediately.

My heart felt emptied and I looked away from him.

My floor came and the elevator door opened. But, my way was blocked.

'Excuse me Sir!' I murmured against Dean who looked at me blank for a while as our eyes locked for a brief while.

'Becky, better hurry up.' Jade said getting out making both me and Dean realize we were in the middle of the elevator. He moved a little and I went out of the elevator, but not without accidentally brushing my back against him.

I sighed as the elevator closed behind me. Even a slight contact with him makes me go crazy. I don't know how am I gonna survive without this guy.

Bayley's P-O-V

Two days to Valentines day. Interestingly, Sami had been calling me thrice a day these days. It's cool yet detrimental.

I didn't know what to do for our date and also, Becky seems really unmindful these days. I guess she's upset for some reason! Well, I don't think I should bother her with my dates and stuff.

But, the problem is I got to talk to Mr. Reigns now. I need a leave for tomorrow. I would actually try picking a dress or may be few other things for my little date. Though I really feel these things obscure, I would like to try it at least once.

I smiled by myself as I thought. But, the problem is I quite find it awkward with Mr. Reigns after that day. I know it was nothing odd but it's just that I don't know what was it.

I knocked the door of his office.

'Come in.' I heard Mr. Reigns' voice. I pushed the door and got inside to see Mr. Reigns leaning back on his chair. Perhaps, he was feeling tired. I walked closer to him to see his eyes were closed. Is he fine?

'Mr. Reigns!' I called. But, he straightened himself abruptly.

'Hey Bayley! It's you.' he said throwing a slight smile.

'Yeah. I just ehm.. wanted a permission from you Sir.' I said nervously. What if he blasts?

'Permission! For what?' he raised an eyebrow.

'I.. I need a leave for tomorrow.' I said.. '.. only if you grant.' I added pressing into my lip.

Mr. Reigns looked at my direction and chuckled.

'Of course, I'll grant it but please, don't hurt your precious lip Miss Martinez.' he said leaning into the table.

Shit! Oops! I'm doing it again.

'I.. I'm sorry. That's just a habit..' I said biting my lip. Mr. Reigns who was still looking at me chuckled again.

'So, your sorry, huh!' he asked.

I nodded, biting my.. Oh no!

Mr. Reigns burst into laughter now.

I gaped my mouth wondering how could I make a joke out of myself too easily.

But, I decided to join the laughter too.

'Oh my! You're unique Bayley.' he said still into the essence of laughter.

I shook my head sheepishly.

'Okay then. Just give an application. I'll sign it but, what's your reason, if I may ask.' Mr. Reigns asked seemingly interested.

'Well, I got to do some shopping stuff, got to buy a dress for..' I stopped realizing I wasn't comfortable to talk about my date to my boss.

'For..?' he asked raising his eyes curiously.

'V.. Valentines Day.' I blurted out but regretted immediately.

Mr. Reigns was seemingly surprised as his mouth gaped a little and he was about to say something but didn't.

'Valentines! Wow! Cool! ehm.. Date?!' he asked narrowing his brows.

I could feel my cheeks flush at this moment. I mean the thing was quite personal and moreover, I don't like to discuss such things with someone who wasn't in my comfort zone.

'ehmmm.. Yeah.. Sort of.' I said biting my lip a bit.

Mr. Reigns smiled a bit though I felt it quite forced.

'That.. That's Great then. Cool. Go shopping tomorrow and just enjoy.' he said clumsily.

I nodded.

'Yeah. Thanks Mr. Reigns.' I said. 'I'll just go.' I said.

'Hmm.' Mr. Reigns said just nodding his head.

I left his room and felt the hot air around me cool down a little. Phew! That was strangely awkward.

Becky's P-O-V

I slammed the laptop shut in frustration. I can't actually concentrate much on my works. Added to this, Sami and Jake were continuously nagging about their Valentines plans and whatsoever.

'Hey Becks! Are you fine?' Sami asked surprised by my sudden outburst.

'Yeah.' I shouted. 'Can't you see that? I'm so fine. I'm just flying in joy amidst your stupid Valentines plans while I am trying to focus on something important.' I said angrily throwing off the files on my desk.

Sami and Jake's eyes were on their forehead by now. But, I had no time to entertain them.

'Disgusting!' I muttered and left the room.

I didn't know what I was thinking or where I was going but I went on fast, trying to get over things but suddenly, lost my balance as I bumped into someone and was almost about to trip but he held me by my arms.

'Are you okay?' Randy asked looking concerned.

I sighed getting off his grip. Though Randy has never done anything detrimental to me directly, but my association with him never turned out well in my personal life.

I actually did not want to talk to him right now.

'Yeah. I'm fine. Thank you.' I said trying to look away.

'Well, it doesn't seem so.' Randy said folding his arms on his chest. 'What's wrong? Did anybody say anything to you?' he asked in a serious tone now.

I shook my head not looking at him.

'Look at me Becky.' he said slowly lifting my chin up to look into his eyes. I knew my eyes had tears and it was visible to him now.

'Hey! You're crying!' he said frowning his eyes.

'I'm not Randy. I'm fine.' I said already sobbing.

Randy cupped my cheeks and slowly wiped my tears away.

'Ahh Becky! You've no idea how bad I feel when I see you sad.' he said as I cried.

His eyes had a genuine concern.

'I don't know Randy. Life just seems to be so hard these days.' I said. Randy smiled.

'Life had always been hard Becky. You just didn't realize. All we can do is lighten it, soften it and love it.' Randy said still cupping my cheeks. His voice getting low at the last part.

I forced a smile through my tears shrugging his hands away.

'It's too easy to say Randy but an enactment of the same is equally difficult.' I said turning to leave. I was feeling a little better after talking with a close friend like Randy but I now feel I got to go and apologize to my poor friends Sami and Jake. But, as I walked a step away..

'Be my Valentines date this year. I promise life would be lightened a little.' Randy said shaking my inner being.

I felt the earth shake around me. Randy and I got a little close recently but I never thought about dates and stuff with him or any other man in this world apart from Dean. But, I know me, Dean and date are non-existent.

I looked at him surprised to see a subtle smile on his face.

'Randy I never..' I tried to say something but Randy cut me off.

'Well I forgot to add only if you trust me a little..and if you actually meant what you said the other day about not turning a friend if he asks for something..' Randy added shrugging his shoulders.

I remembered what me and Randy told each other that night. I promised him never to turn him down if he asks anything from me. I trust him too. But, being his date... was actually bothering me.

'Randy, I'm sorry but this time I'm really dealing with some issues and Valentines is perhaps, a non-entity in my book.' I confessed.

'Sssshhh..' Randy placed a finger on my lips making be look surprised. 'You know what's your problem Becky. You only focus on the pains and sorrows completely ignoring the happy and warm aspects that are lurking in your life.' he said finally withdrawing his fingers off my lips.

'So, if you want, give life a chance Becky.' he said backing a step away. 'I promise you'll love it.' he said giving me a warm smile.

Is he right? Am I just ruining my life with my thoughts focused on a single person? And also, I doubt that person even gives a thought about me for a single second of his day. I'm just a fuck for him.

I don't think of Randy more than a friend but I guess, he's right this time. I need to understand I'm running for a complete mirage and it's time, I should try divert myself a little. Should I give it a try? It's just a casual date!

I saw Randy opting to leave.

'Randy!' I called him making him turn to face me.

'I.. I gave it a thought and I think you're right. I should lighten myself up a little and..' I stopped hesitating to say a rest.

'Should I consider it as  yes?' Randy asked with a proud smirk.

'Hmm.. They say friends never turn each other down. So, I guess, it's a Yes.' I said with a friendly smile.

Randy licked his lips and smiled.

'So, the queen and the jester are going for a date this Valentines, huh?' he joked.

I couldn't help but giggle at his comment.

'Stop it.' I said punching his chest softly. Randy chuckled and wrapped an arm around me pulling me into a friendly hug. I felt him looking sideways somewhere.

'Oh Becky! We are going to be the best couple this Valentines.' he said amidst the chuckle.

'CLAP' 'CLAP' 'CLAP'

The sound of claps made us break the hug and look towards the right from where the sounds came. I looked at the direction in surprise to see Dean. A big smile on his lips and only I could say how fake it was.

I guess he misunderstood again. Does it matter to me? I mean, it's like stabbing my already dead body.

'Wow! Randell! So, you and Becky are going for a date huh?' he asked with that lingering smile.

'I'm so so happy for you guys.' he said moving over to us. He stood behind us and all of a sudden hooked his arms over the necks of me and Randy rather tightly.

Just a single touch of him sent shivers down my spine.

'Many many congratulations guys. I know you two would have a really hot Valentines, isn't it Becky?' he said it looking at me. I tried to shrug off his hold in disgust. He's gone crazy!

'uhhhh.. Thanks a lot Dean.' Randy said rather awkwardly. I understand how he might be feeling.

Dean looked at Randy and smirked.

'You're most welcome Randell. Just make sure she's on pills.' Dean said throwing Randy a wink. Randy looked at me nervously. He must have felt so embarrassed.

'Excuse me. I got some work.' I said shrugging of Dean's grip. I walked fast to get out of the ridiculous scene Dean caused.

Why is he doing that?

'Hey Becky! Don't blush baby.' I heard Dean yell shamelessly.

Is this the way he wanted to turn the sweet memories between us?

*****

I wasn't at all interested in this silly Valentines shopping because I was not taking things seriously about this date. But, thanks to Bayley and Lexi, I am right now in a mall selecting my dress for the Valentines theme.

'Good for this one Bayley. This would enhance your shape and posture and trust me, our Sami boy is gonna go crazy.' Alexa said picking a dress for Bayley.

It was really nice, I must say.

'It's beautiful Lexi. But, would that suit me? I mean, I know I look average and I'm not anything like you all.' Bayley said.

Is she serious? She must be a little more confident about herself!

Me and Lexi looked and each other for sometime and then towards Bayley.

'Shut up and try this.' We said to her. She smiled sheepishly.

'Alright! You won.' she said taking the dress with her to the trial room.

'Now for you Becks.' Alexa said. 'Good select your favorite red dress from the third row. Things are quite good in there.' she said curtly.

Someway, I felt Lexi wasn't much happy about me going with Randy. I mean, she was really enthusiastic about selecting a dress for Bayley but not much for me.

'Lexi, is there something you want to say.' I asked finally.

Alexa smiled sarcastically.

'Like you would listen.' she said.

I gave her an expression of surprise.

'You're mad for me going out with Randy this Valentines, aren't you?' I asked her.

Alexa looked away from me and sighed.

'Look Becks. You're my friend and I only want you to be happy. It's just that be  little more careful with things around you, alright!' she said seriously.

I frowned my eyes.

'Now go get a dress.' Alexa said.

'Wait, aren't you getting one?' I asked.

Alexa gave me an 'Are you kidding me' look.

'Becks, are you forgetting something?' she asked.

'What?' I asked confused.

'I don't have a date.' she said.

C'mon! I know that! So what?

'Lexi, still you can always get a dress for Valentines. May be you would accompany me and Randy in our date.' I said. Well, that would be a cooler option, I guess.

Alexa chuckled.

'You must be fucking crazy. I don't want to be the third wheel plus this time Forte Club made it' couples only' entry system.' she said.

'Then may be you can..' I couldn't finish my suggestion before I heard Bayley.

'Becky! Lexi! ehm.. Is that fine?' she asked hesitantly.

We looked at her to see her nervously biting her lip flaunting the beautiful red Valentines dress flawlessly.

Alexa's P-O-V

It's Valentines day. Another year moved by and the day is still as meaningless to me as before. Becky and Bayley forced me to get a Valentines dress yesterday. I don't know what to do with that crap. So, I put that on my locker without a second look.

While the who office was on a festive mood with the plans for their special moment hours later, I preferred doing my work and checking down the balance sheets.

It was break time and I wanted to stay away from Bay and Becks due to obvious reasons. But still, I wasn't okay with the fact that Becky was going out with Randy. I mean, he's the guy who tried to spike her drink and perhaps, planned for a bigger misery for her that night. But, alas! I don't want to speak without proofs. Plus, with Becky's friendship with Randy these days, I doubt if she would even trust me over him.

I avoided the cafeteria and went to the canteen near the Designer Department.

I saw Summer and Eva sitting on a table. I took the seat adjacent to them.

'Hey Alexa!' Summer greeted. 'Why here today?' she asked.

I don't know why I've started hating her too much these days.

I gave her the biggest fake smile.

'Just a change of taste.' I replied.

Summer smiled fake too.

'So, Miss Bliss, what are your plans for tonight?' Eva asked.

'Nothing much. Just gonna get an extra hour of sleep.' I said ordering  my capsicum and carrot salads.

'Owh! No date?' Summer asked me. I felt an amusement at the corner of her lips.

'Dates mean a lot more to me Summer. So, no. I'm not lucky enough have a guy asking me out.' I said faking another smile.

Eva frowned her eyes.

'But, I guess you should have had one, considering even Bayley has got someone.' she said rolling her eyes.

How can she speak that about Bayley? She's a thousand times better than her! I guess she's upset these time Sami didn't begged to her and went straight to Bayley.

I smiled.

'I guess Bayley attracted Sami a lot in few days.' I said.

Burn bitch!

I saw Eva getting quite miffed with my statement.

'Ahh.. Whatever.. I'm only thinking how to surprise Seth with my charms this time.' Summer said waving her hairs a but proudly.

My heart jumped little. So, Rollins has asked Summer out this time too. Not a surprise, anyway!

I tried to focus on my salads.

'Oh! So, Mr. Rollins asked you already?' Eva asked Summer.

'Yeah, I know he would. Seth threw me hints since last month. I mean, I should just be ready for him.' Summer said.

'After all, my charms are all over him.'  she said.

Ugh! I don't know why I want to smash her head on the table. Probably because she isn't even letting me finish my lunch in a peaceful manner.

'And what about you Eva? Anyone big?' Summer asked her friend.

'Yep. The biggest. Just watch me.' Eva said in a desperate way.

These girls are really weird to be around. All they think about is... yaks! Cheap!

Roman's P-O-V

I don't know why but I feel I'm trying to make myself too much busy in my works. Hell! I'm even doing the typing and printing myself, not even calling Bayley.

Well, I guess she must be a little busy with her dates and stuffs. I actually don't want to face her today for some strange unknown reasons.

But, is she really going for a date? I mean, yeah, she doesn't look bad and all but still, I thought... Well, it doesn't matter what I thought. Let's concentrate on work.

Plus, most of the employees are distracted today, thanks to this Valentines crap. Just then, I heard a knock on my door.

'Come in.' I said.

I heard the door open.

'Hello Mr. Reigns!' I heard a voice. I looked up to see..

.. a red headed girl with nice features. Have I seen her somewhere? Looks a bit familiar.. Oh yeah.. She is our receptionist. I just forgot the name.

'Hello Miss..' I greeted her halfway.

'Eva.. Eva Marie..' she said in a strange seductive voice. What does the girl want anyone? Hope she doesn't wanna get fired!

'Yeah, any problem Eva?' I asked still going through the files in my hands.

'Ehm.. Yes. But, only if you give me a small fraction of your precious time.' she said leaning onto my table, letting her ample assets in my view.

I guess, she must know I keep it away from workplace.

'Spill.' I said closing the files and leaning back on my chair. 'And spill it quick.'

I could say the chick wasn't quite delighted by my approach but trust me, she's sort of annoying me too.

'Mr. Reigns, Sir. I'm supposed to be the hottest thing in this company but these days, no one seems to acknowledge.' she said putting her hairs away from her chest and wiggling her boobs a bit on purpose.

'So, you want me to ask them for a Show Cause for that?' I asked her curtly. Her face faded a little.

'Oh no Mr. Reigns. I just wanted to say  I don't have a date this Valentines, can you believe it?' she asked almost faking a tear.

Oh my! Should I laugh out loud in front of her.

'In fact, there was a nerd of a guy who used to ponder over me to be her Valentine every single year but this time he too got Bayley.' she said lamenting.

But, the name of my assistant made me sit straight and focus. Who's got Bayley?

'Ehm.. Eva.. Who are you talking about?' I asked a little more interested in her speech now.

'That guy in the Event Management Section, Sami Zayn.' she said.

Sami! Just then, I remembered the day I saw Sami and Bayley in a really close way. They must be pretty close! Are they together?

'Oh! Are they together?' I couldn't help asking her.

Eva wiped some of her fake tear, wiping few of her fake eyelashes by mistake.

'Who? Bayley and Sami? No. How can he get interested in someone like her? She looks just like a schoolgirl.' she said.

My hands fisted around the stress balls for some unknown reason though there was seemingly no reason for that.

'What can I do for you now?' I asked frustrated.

'Would you be my date today?' she asked blinking with her fake lashes.

I frowned my eyes in shock. This chick just asked me to be her date! She's desperate. But, it was nothing compared to what happened next.

He leaned a little more and folded her hands in front of me.

'Please, Please, Please Mr. Reigns. I promise you I'll not take a leave in next six months and I'll even work overtime. Would you please be my date?

I didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. I've never been in this crazy situation before.

'Eva, look I don't do dates, okay!' I said trying to make her realize.

And then, she started crying loudly, though fake.

'Mr. Reigns, please, you can deduct my salary if you want.' she said almost sitting on her knees now.

Oh man! What if someone hears from outside! They might even think I'm abusing this girl.

I got up from my seat.

'Hey! Don't do that.' I said picking her up.

'So, would you be my date Sir?' she asked again. Ugh! Sami is ruining my life in every way possible. I'm thinking of deducting his salary now.

'Alright. Alright. Chill okay. I will be your date.' I said reluctantly.

Eva's face lit up.

She put her palms on her face like I just proposed her for marriage.

'Oh my God! Thank you Mr. Reigns. Now that prick Sami would understand my level.' she said.

Level! Oh! So, that's why she chose to come to me. Too bad I already said yes.

Just then, the door sprung open revealing Seth, Bayley with him. Oh no! I still held Eva by her arms since I lifted her up from her knees.

Seth looked surprised as hell. He knows I keep it away from office and so does he and Dean.

As for Bayley, she was surprised too and looked at Eva.

I moved my hand away from her immediately.

'Eva! I guess the lunch hours are over and the reception needs you. So, excuse us.' I said in a professional tone.

Eva nodded.

'See you in the date.' she said suddenly waving a hand at me.

Fuck!

Both Seth and Bayley gave frowned looks. Bayley's was like Really! Her! look while Seth's was I can't believe you look.

Eva went out smiling bright and the door closed.

'What the fuck was that?' Seth asked raising his eyebrows at the way Eva left.

'Trouble.' was all I could say with a sigh. I looked at Bayley to realize she was surprised but hardly bothered by it.

She bit her lip and looked at me. Why does she have to do that all the time in front of me? One day she's gonna pay for it, I tell you.

Then I realize, she caught me looking for long.

Seth cleared his throat, bringing me back to earth.

Bayley's P-O-V

Seriously! Eva and Mr. Reigns! Sounds pretty odd but hilarious as well. But, I don't think Mr. Reigns was the one who asked her for the date. So, it must be her!

OMG! I could imagine Eva asking her employer out. I can never do something like this or fly that high. Someone like Sami is good enough for me. I don't want someone of a higher strata. In fact, I don't want anyone in reality because I can't have them.

I bit my lip my vigorously thinking of the reason. Shit! Am I doing this in front of Mr. Reigns again? He would laugh again!

I looked up to see what I feared to see. Him looked at my lips bitten by my teeth.

Shit! I'm biting it more now.

Seth cleared his throat getting me back on earth.

'So, if you guys don't mind, shall we discuss the new program schedule?' he asked.

'Yes but don't we need Dean for that?' Mr. Reigns asked.

'Yes. Dean's late already.' I said.

Seth nodded.

'Yeah, I'll just go call him.' Seth said and exit the room leaving me and Mr. Reigns.

'We are already quite late for the meeting.' I said breaking the silence.

'Too late, I guess.' Mr. Reigns said licking his lips eying me keenly.

I nodded.

Another few seconds of silence passed and then Mr. Reigns decided to break it.

'So, you're going out with Sami?' he asked suddenly making my heart jump a little.

'Ye.. Yes.' I said not looking into his eyes. I was feeling a little shy right now. I was really blushing uncomfortably now. I mean, I believe in keeping our personal and professional lives separate. Also, I did not ask him about Eva either.

'Don't bit your lips. It's really okay. He's a nice guy.' Mr. Reigns said, a little scoff in his voice.

Oh no! I'm so stupid. I did it again.

Just then the door opened. Phew! Thank God!

Seth and Dean entered the door.

Seth's P-O-V

I've already got few missed calls from Summer, reminding me I need to ask  her quick. I've taken her to the Valentines party last year as my date and all the while, which was supposed to be a romantic date, she went on nagging and boasting about her accomplishments in the fashion world and suggesting how lucky any man was to get her to a date. I was perhaps, her arm candy according to her. Hanging out with one-third of the CEO of the Shield would be a great paparazzi for her. So, she needs me every time. As for me, I don't mind the paparazzi either. That's why I took her out as my date several times but there was no such attachment whatsoever.

But, this time, I feel I'm tired of carrying the precious prize around. I mean, Valentines is about love, right?

Heck! What am I thinking?

Dean was not at all in a mood for the meeting today. But, why is he acting so unprofessional these days. Hell! He even got drunk blabbering strange things and got into Roman's house.

Finally, I had to drag him along with me.

'Seth! Would you please let me stay away from these things.' Dean said once again as I pushed the door of Roman's cabin.

'I'm sorry. I can't bro.' I said.

Dean rolled his eyes from me.

We entered the cabin.

'Hey Deano. Why so late man?' Roman asked.

'Not late. I actually planned not to come. Seth dragged me in here.' Dean said nonchalantly.

What the heck?

Roman frowned his eyes and looked at me. I shook my head and raised my head in surrender.

'Well, Dean! As you say, I know you're not fine. We can have this meeting later.' Roman said being considerate. But, would someone ask Dean what's actually wrong?

'Thanks for understanding Ro.' Dean said slapping his fist with Roman.

'It's fine. Just go home and take rest.' Roman said tapping Dean's shoulder.

Dean sighed and nodded.

'Okay then, when are you going to have this meeting?' Bayley asked.

'Don't know for exact. But, let's say it's safe when all of us would be present. I mean me, Dean, you, Seth, Alexa and Randy.' Roman said.

Talking about Randy, is he even present today? I think I should inform him that the meeting got canceled.

'Ahh.. Bayley, is Randy present today?' I asked.

Bayley giggled.

'Oh no! I don't think he even came today. He's so excited about his date with Becky tonight.' she said.

Randy and Becky!

'Wait! You mean Randy is taking out Becky this Valentines?' Roman said equally surprised as me.

But, Dean however looked restless.

'I think I should leave now.' Dean said.

But, I had another point in my mind.

'But, why did Becky agree to go out with the guy who spiked her drink a few months ago?' I blurted.

I saw Dean's stop at the door step suddenly. He slammed the door shut a day looked at me with an expression mixed with surprise, rage and something else.

'What? He did what?' Dean asked walking towards me.

Oh no! Did I do a mistake by telling them?

'uhhhh.. Dean, actually it's just a suspicion okay.' I said trying to cover up things.

But, Dean was breathing really fast and stood holding the nearest chair.

'But, how did you know Seth?' Roman asked me.

Shit!

'Actually, somebody told me. Randy was seen doing something suspicious at the bar and he was also the last person seen with Becky before she collapsed that day.' I said trying to keep her out of the mess.

Everyone looked surprised.

'I don't know but I still can't believe someone as gentle as Randy can get that low.' Bayley said.

'Yes, we've known Randy for a time Seth. I don't think he would try to do that to a woman.' Roman said.

I sighed and my eyes fell on Dean who looked at the chair on front of him. Not a word, no reaction.

Suddenly, he looked up at me.

'When is the Valentines Party gonna start?' he asked.

'ehm.. Within half an hour.' Bayley said.

Seriously! He was thinking about Valentines Party!

Dean nodded.

'Excuse me. I'll have to leave.' he said and rushed out of the room.

'What's wrong with him?' Bayley asked.

'No idea.' was all I could say.

Alexa's P-O-V

It was almost the end of office hour. I closed my files and locked my laptop. I sat back on my chair relaxing my nerves a little.

I smiled as a message popped up on my screen. It's Becky. She sent me a picture of her in the new Valentines dress.

That's her problem. She never gets convinced until I tell her it was fine.

I looked at her picture carefully. She looked beautiful there's a certain glow that was missing from her face and it couldn't be brought with any external make-up, neither is it something I could point out to her.

But, I still can't believe she went with Randy! I wish I could tell her everything I feel but I don't want to talk without proof plus, considering Becky's recent friendship with Randy, i even doubt if she would trust me over him.

I sighed leaning my head back on the chair but just then, the door burst open making me jump a little. I looked up to see a restless looking dean.

'Hey Dean! You scared me.' I said. dean said nothing and walked up to my desk, pacing a little unmindfully.

'ehm..everything okay Dean?' I asked. 

Dean didn't reply, making me confused.

then, suddenly he looked up.

'Are you taken today?' he asked suddenly. 

I was utterly confused now.

'What do you mean?' I asked furrowing my brows.

Dean looked at me frustrated, as if he was mad that I didn't get him.

'I said do you have a Valentines date tonight?' he asked.

What? Why does he want to know that?

'ehm..No.' I said. 

'Good. Get ready in ten minutes. I need to get to the Valentines Park as fast as we can.' he said turning to leave abruptly.

What's going on?

'Well Dean, that was the weirdest way to ask someone to be your date, you know.' I said with a chuckle but Dean did not hear it because he left already.

What's wrong with this guy? Didn't he just ask me to be his Valentines date? But, the way he asked, I guess actually needs to get inside the Valentines party urgently for which he needs a date. I sighed.

Dean is a good friend. I guess I would like to help in whatever he's trying to do. Moreover, my new Valentines dress would at least be to some use. But, the worst matter is I need to get ready inside the office.

Look for the Ladies

*******************

Seth's P-O-V

Should I or should I not, that's the question. right now, there are several confusions within my head. First of all, Summer! Should I ask Summer? I know she must be ready already but I don't know why I'm just in no mood to pretend today. Second of all, I know I did a blunder by sharing Randy's spiking with Roman, Dean and Bayley. And, I instinctually feel something bad is going to happen about this. But, what to do? Should I tell Bliss about it? Oh no. She'd only shout and blame my ass for every little fault in the world. But, I need to see her once. I guess I can tell her that I'm going to start our little photo session from tonight or even.. My train of thoughts stopped as my eyes experience the most photogenic scene in the whole universe, approaching from the left corner.

It was Bliss in a long, red gown walking this way like an angel coming down to earth with the shower of pearls all over. Her hairs were pinned above in an intricate manner, holding few up and letting the others go. Her eyes were adorned with smoky liners making those orbs more visible than ever. I never saw her wearing a long dress before but as I saw today, she flaunts it really well. I wish I had my camera with me. But, hey! Why is he in a red gown in the office?

I saw her coming closer.

'Hey Bliss!' I called her.

She smiled slightly as she saw me.

'Hey Rollins!' she said. She stood closer to me now.

'Well, new dress?' I asked pointing to her red gown.

Bliss looked down at her dress and smiled.

'Well yeah.' she said seemingly less interested. 

'Cool. But, what made you chose it for office hours?' I asked. 

Bliss opened her mouth to say something but someone cut her off.

'Hey Alexa! Are you ready?' I heard Dean's voice from behind.

Ready! Are they going somewhere?

'Yes. I'm all ready.' Bliss said.

'Good. Now stand near my bike for a minute. I'm coming.' Dean said.

Bike! In that dress?

Bliss hesitated a little first but then nodded and went away. 

'Hey! Where are you two going?' I asked Dean. 'And that too in a bike?' 

Dean shook his head.

'Well, Alexa's my date for this Valentines and we are heading towards the Valentines Party, happy?' Dean said.

What! Dean and Bliss? But, when? where? why? No, that can't be. 

My jaw hung open and I didn't know what to say.

'No. That can't be happening.' I blurted out. 'why are you going with her?' I asked Dean impatiently.

I mean, I seriously don't like the idea of them going out in a date. Reason: I would tell to you I don't like Dean going out with the girl I don't get along with...that's it.

'Relax. It's Valentines. Keep your opinion to yourself. I'm getting late already.' Dean said not at all bothering my words.

'No Dean. I thought you were going home to take rest.' I said remembering how unwell he was moments ago.

'Well, I changed my mind.' Dean said and started walking away.

He's leaving for his date!

'Dean, there's still time. She's not good for you.' I said, making dean frown his eyes. ' I even doubt if she has STDs and I don't want you to suffer because of this silly mistake.' I added.

Dean gave me a dirty look now.

'Are you over with your silliness Seth?' he asked annoyed. 'because I seriously have very little time.' he shouted.

'But Dean..' I tried to plce.

'And don't worry about the STDs, I won't fuck her.' Dean said angrily.

Really! Wow!

Dean shook his head and started to leave but my instinct caught his arms.

'You promise that?' I asked.

Dean looked at me confused but then, his confusion cleared.

'Yeah, yeah, I promise. now let me go.' he said shrugging my hand away.

I sighed in frustration as he left.

I guess I've to go ask summer now.
