Dean sat down after a football game in the locker rooms, he had just finished his PE class
"Ambrose," the coach called, walking up to sit by him
"You're really talented," the coach said making Dean grin
"Please try out for the football team," he said and just like that, the grin fell from Dean's face
"Coach," Dean began
"Just think about it okay? You have until next month," the coach said and walked out
Dean sighed and got up, turning to his locker, only for it to slam shut and he was roughly turned and pinned against it as Randy held him by his arms, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns flanked at his sides, looking at Dean with sympathy, the look Dean hated more than anything, sympathy and pity, made him sick to his stomach
"Heard coach's little offer. Hope you're not thinking of taking it freak," Randy said, eyes cold. Dean struggled to breathe as Randy was pressed dangerously close to him
"Answer me." Randy said, slamming him against the locker, making him grunt, and how bad he wanted to smack Randy but he refrained
"No." Dean replied through gritted teeth
"Good." Randy smirked and left, beckoning Roman and Seth
"Sorry man," Seth said while Roman just gave an apologetic smile
Dean grunted and looked at his arm in the mirror, the arm that Randy grabbed, his pale skin was reddened to an ugly shade
He sighed and threw on his white jersey and rolled his eyes when he saw the shirt sleeves weren't long enough to hide it
"Hey Deano," Addison called as she saw him at his locker, he turned to her and her smile fell 10 feet into the floor when she saw the marks on his arms
"Orton." She growled and flung down her backpack, rolling up her sleeves and marching to where he stood, chatting up Summer
She pushed him and punched him in his cheekbone, he held his face and growled at her, lunging for her, tackling her onto the ground and hitting her, she blocked his hits and rolled them over, she felt arms around her, pulling her off and she saw Dean and she calmed down
She turned back to Randy to see Roman holding him back
"You bitch!" Randy yelled
"You say it like it's a bad thing!" Addison called back as Dean started dragging her away
"Don't put your hands on him again, else you're done Orton, you're done!" She yelled
Dean led her to the tree by the field where they spent their lunchtime and sat her down
"How dare he-" she hissed
"How dare he hurt you, how dare he even fucking touch you," she said, venom on her tongue
"I'm okay. I'm okay Adds, I'm infront of you perfectly fine," he assured her smiling
She looked at him and smiled slowly, taking his hands in hers
"Perfectly fine." She repeated and he smiled back, a little confused if he was being honest
Later that night, he sat in his room alone, sighing as he looked out the window and then he smiled
To: Addison
Hey Adds, you home?
He pressed sent and waited, deciding to change her contact name while he was at it. It was about 2 minutes later when his phone vibrated in his hands
From: Adds💖
Yeah, I'm in my room why?
He smiled and began typing, pressing send when he was done, then getting up and changing
To: Adds💖
I'm coming over in a while
He put on a plaid shirt over his white shirt and walked to Addison's house
Addison was waiting to hear the knock at the door so she was sitting on her bed with her song book, trying to finish one of her newest songs
She shrieked when her window opened and her pale blue curtains were pushed away and Dean stepped through, grunting as he stood up straight and bent his back
"That's a small window," he said under his breath and he smiled at Addison who looked like she was still in shock
"Hey." Dean said, laying next to her on his stomach and propping himself with his elbows
"Hi." She replied smiling
"What'cha doing?" He asked, cutely craning his neck and tilting his head to look into the book with a curious look on his face
"Just writing a new song," she replied smiling as his blue eyes scanned the words
"That guy's lucky to have someone like you," he said, turning onto his back as he finished reading what she had written down
The lyrics were about a boy she fell for, and she smiled when he said that
"Nah," she said softly, shaking her head as she smiled at where he was staring up at the ceiling
"I'm the lucky one," she finished and he smiled and she swore she was 10x happier than before he came
"Can you sing some of it for me?" He asked her and she bit her lip and nodded and without a melody, she began
"I don't know, but I think I may be fallin' for you, dropping so quickly, maybe I should keep this to myself, waiting 'til I know you better," she sang staring at him
"I am trying not to tell you but I want to. I'm scared of what you'll say and so I'm hiding what I'm feeling but I'm tired of holding this inside my head," her voice grew more powerful as he drummed a beat on his thigh, his eyes closing in rapture
"I've been spending all my time, just thinking about you I don't know what to do I think I'm fallin' for you, I've been waiting all my life and now I found you I don't know what to do I think I'm fallin' for you, I'm fallin' for you," she sang and blushed slightly when he sat up to look at her
"That's so beautiful," he complimented and he smiled as he stood up and walked over to her dresser, picking up a picture frame
She closed her eyes briefly when he sat down and he glanced at her and then the picture
"Is this your mom?" Dean asked, as he looked at Addison who was looking at the picture
"Yeah, on her wedding day." Addison replied, smiling as she slid closer to him and looked down at the picture
"She's beautiful," Dean spoke and Addsion nodded, tears in her eyes
"She was the most beautiful woman in the world, always happy and smiling and just pure. She was everything this world did right," Addison told him
"Lost an angel to some drunk man in a semi, I remember running to the phone when dad called me cuz she never did get around to changing her emergency contact and he came for me, trying to be strong, I remember everything she said to him, said to me." She said, staring blankly into space as she spoke and Dean was hanging onto every word she said
"Told him that he was her first love, that she'd never feel like that about anyone again and it just wasn't their time, dad ran out of the room when the doctors said it was almost time," she said and sighed
"She was caring, accepting, loving, talented and just really beautiful," she said and she tensed when she felt a big hand take hers and wrap their fingers together
"Sounds alot like you," she heard that voice right next to her and she smiled, tightening her grip on his hands
"I try to be like her everyday," she said then turned to Dean
"You know you remind me alot of my mom," she said
"She was carefree and was never afraid to be who she was even when people didn't agree, she was a peacekeeper and always was reserved," she said and smiled
She tentatively leaned her head on Dean's shoulder, their hands still linked as she felt a tear slide down and sink into his black hoodie. Then she felt his head on top of hers and she smiled, taking a deep breath, taking in his sweet, masculine smell that was strangely Dean and she just felt her heart pick up
