Roman POV:

I tap my foot, growing more and more impatient with Seth's ringing phone. I groan, ending the call again and shoving my phone in the pocket. Where is he? Why did he not inform me again before leaving? It's not difficult to find him. Other than the house in the forest, he wouldn't go anywhere.

I sigh and wait for my parents to leave the house for our long-distance relation house. I don't know the reason for their going, and I don't care much about it. My only concentration is on Seth now, wanting to see him and making sure he is okay.

I could visit him earlier by informing my parents, but I didn't want to. Because I wanted to keep the promise that I had with him. So I won't tell them about him until he is ready to face them.

Still, I'm somewhat disturbed by him because I haven't heard a word from him. It is going to be noon. I jump when I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket, pulling me from my thoughts. I reach for it, thankful that it is him finally calling me back.

"Hey! I've been trying to call you all morning!" I start, but my frustrations quickly absolve into a soft sigh. "I was getting a little worried about you."

"There is nothing serious going on, so you don't need to worry about me." He explains, voice soft and tired. The rustling of clothes fills the silent line. "And to be surprised, Dean was here a little ago."

My brows are furrowing at his words, not believing anything. I feel sick of hearing this. It's not the only time he keeps blabbering about him. It's going on, always. Even last night, he kept trying to make me believe he had seen him and visited him.

I'm sure it's all just his imagination, nothing more than that. The house where he is staying keeps tormenting him and making him mad. I have to do something to make him get out of that stupid house and forest. Once he lets the fresh air hit his face, it can calm him and bring some sense into him.

Suddenly I feel something is off on the other line. I don't know if it is the tone of Seth's voice or just how out of it he sounds. "Hey, you okay? You don't sound all that great right now." There is silence on the line. "Seth?"

"I'm fine. Just thought about Dean." He says finally, his voice starting to shake. It's not the only time he thinks about him, so I haven't been surprised at all. As much as he's caring for his husband, I'm caring for him.

It's what I'm going to prove to him. But it doesn't mean I won't help him search for Dean. I will! And it's only for him. I can't see him crying all the time, worrying about everything. I have to bring the smile back on his face somehow.

So I know better, but I also know not to push him now. "Okay. Don't think much because he'll choke out." I let myself laugh, feeling almost awkward when all I can hear is a pathetic chuckle from him. "And please don't wander around the forest until I reach there. I can't knock at the fucking door of an empty house like a mad."

At that, he finally let himself smile, pushing out a slightly louder chuckle. "Okay," He says before we say goodbye and hang up.

I let my phone slip from my hand onto the bed, my heart pounding. I tug my hair carelessly as I flop down on the bed, staring at the floor mindlessly. Overall, it seemed like Seth didn't get his memories back as he had told. It looks like his memories are lost only now because of his husband missing!

Seth POV:

As I'm waiting for Roman outside the house, I notice Dean at the far right, wandering around the forest carelessly. What is he doing there? Why did he not arrive at the home instead of rambling mindlessly?

Now and then, I stare at him and wonder what he might do outside if he's not with me. Without realizing it, my legs begin to move toward him where it belongs. I admire how gorgeous he is!

I would get so into admiring him sometimes that I wouldn't even notice he was practically burning his skin. The sun is glistening on his pale skin, and his icy blue eyes look brighter than usual as he recognizes me.

Our brown and blue eyes are locked, eager to read into what each other is thinking. Making eye contact with him forces my heart to flutter. I know we have a special connection, and I feel almost foolish realizing that this link, this chemistry between us, won't intensify even if we forget ourselves.

Stepping forward to cup his cheek in my hand as I stare at him, he shakes his head and moves backward, disappearing into the air suddenly. I blink my eyes and look around the forest in frustration, not knowing what is going on. He teases me like the free wind, and I aberrate like loose sand.

A tear slips from my eye as the image of him disappearing into the air in our vampire world gets into the forefront of my mind. My body shivers violently as the following image of Dean's heart in the cage thrashing into my mind.

I jump slightly and fall to the ground when I feel someone's hand on my shoulder. My heart slows to its beat as I find Roman standing in front of me with a confused look on his face. "R-Roman," I sigh and wipe my tear away, getting on my feet slowly.

"Hey, what happened?" He asks, wrapping his arm around my shoulders and leading me to my house.

"I just saw Dean here again. This time he disappeared into the air suddenly, just like it happened in the vampire world!" I explain to him everything, wanting to know if he's getting any hint from it. Does it resemble something?

"Seth, try to understand, buddy. It's all your imagination! You're still bothered about the incident that has happened in front of your sight." He tries to convince me, not believing my point. How can I make him consider my words?

I'm not lying to him. And it's not my imagination as well. It's all happening around me, but no one can sense it. My heart hurts at the situation that I'm in. Why does everything feel difficult, even if my husband surrounds me invisibly?
