A/N: I own none of the characters, WWE owns them all. I would like to thank everyone for taking time to continue to read my story. I have not given up on this story I promise. I had a writer's block and I didn't want to put some chapter up and it not be good. So here is a new chapter for everyone who is interested.

Standing in the doorway, Hunter and Stephanie watched the events unfold with their boys. They were happy to see them finally getting along again, but what they were most happy about is that all three boys are happy and healthy. After standing there for a good half hour, the married couple thought it was time to make themselves known. Hunter knocked and held the door open for his wife to walk through first.

Seeing his parents walk into the room, Seth stood up. He thought he was ready to confront his parents, but actually seeing them in person standing in front of him, he wasn't so ready anymore. "Mom, dad." Was all Seth could get out. He looked like a deer in headlights.

Advancing on his yougest son, Hunter wrapped Seth up in a hug and said in his ear "Don't ever run away again. No matter what you do or happens, no one is ever going to give you up. You are our son and that is never going to change. You almost gave your mother and I heart failure when Dean called us saying you were gone. We are getting too old to be going through things like this." Hunter finally released his son and looked him over to make sure he was okay.

Seth seeing this, he reassured his father by saying "I'm okay. I'm not hurt in any way." Then he went on to say "I'm sorry that I ran away. I'm sorry that I scared you both. I'm so sorry that I screwed up again, but please don't punish Rome for telling me to lie. He was only trying to help and we didn't know how you would react if I told you guys about Rome and I." Seth hugged his mom whispering in her ear that he was sorry for hurting her, and did the same to Hunter, but only with Hunter, Seth broke down crying. He kept his face buried in the crook of his dad's neck. The two stayed like that for close to five minutes before they broke apart.

Stephanie looked at Roman and said "No one is mad at what you tried to do with Seth today. We understand why you thought lieing would be the best course of action considering Hunter and I haven't been to kind to you over the past months, but we would like to change that. You see Hunter and I were talking and we never saw things from your point of view. For years you were the parent/big brother/kid trying to keep everything together and supporting your brothers and yourself. We see that now and you were only ever trying to do what was in the best interest for them." Steph pointed at her two boys. She continued to say "We would like to give it another shot, you coming back into our family. Hunter and I officially adopting you like we did with Seth and Dean. That is if you want that. You don't have too if you don't want to. No one is pressuring you into anything. You have plenty of time to think on this." Steph finished off with. She wanted her family all back together again.

Looking down at his hands, Roman replied softly "You don't have to adopt me. I only ever wanted Dean and Seth to be okay and to be taken care of. Both of you have three children of your own and you also have these two. I don't want to add more to your already full plate. I'm okay with being on my own. Thank you for the offer, but I've been taking care of myself my entire life." It was a genuine response. He really did appreciate everything that Hunter and Stephanie did.

"Ro please? When we were little we always said no matter what, nothing will ever seperate us. That you would always stay with me. You can't go off on your own. Don't leave me." Dean Ambrose was not someone who begged, but he was begging Roman to join him and Seth.

Sitting down on his bed, Stephanie laid a hand on Roman's leg and said "I know how much you've been through in your short life. I know how much you've sacrificed for your brothers. Yes you are very capable of fending for yourself and no one wants to take that away. You, Dean and Seth are all old enough to take care of yourselves and make decisions. What Hunter and I provide is comfort and guidance and anything else you need. We are here if you need anything, but you do the rest. Does that make sense?"

Roman nods his head. "I understand what you're saying. Can I have time to think about it still?" Roman was looking up at Stephanie. He did see the appealing side and thinks that it's fantastic, but again he didn't want to be a burden.

Smiling down at the oldest boy, Stephanie said "Sure. Just let us know what your decision is." She patted his leg. They stayed with Roman for most of the remaining night. Talking between herself and Hunter they realized that Seth and Dean fell alseep laying on the other side with Roman. Seeing all three boys snuggled close to each other put a smile on both Hunter and Stephanie's faces. "Do you think we should wake them and take them home?" She asked looking at her husband.

"Nah leave them there. We'll stay on the couch here and let them go. They look to comfortable and I would hate to wake them. Plus knowing Dean, once he's up, he isn't going back to bed and that means he will keep Seth awake. Having a tired Seth is just bad for everyone involved. So let them go." Hunter told his wife.

In the morning, the three boys were awaken by their parents when they were told that they had to go to a live event that they had that evening. "Ugh mom please don't make us go. I don't want to go and neither does Seth." Dean said still half asleep.

"You both have to go. You have been scheduled for months for this show and neither of you are missing it." Stephanie said to her two boys.

Sighing obnoxiously, both boys got up and got their things. Before leaving both boys went to Roman "Don't do anything stupid. We'll be back sometime soon." They both gave him a hug and were ushered out the door.

Later that week, Roman's doctor came back to see him. "Roman nice to see you awake. You're looking much better. I see your pain is down significantly. How are you feeling now?"

Roman nodded his head "I'm feeling a lot better. Still some pain, but not too much. It's about a level 3-4."

"That's good to hear. I've been looking over your chart and everything looks really good and I have no reason to keep your here. So I am going to discharge you from here if you agree to following some simple rules and restrictions that you have." Roman's doctor said.

Roman was happy to hear those words. He was more than ready to leave this place, not that anyone was mean or the food was terrible. He just didn't like having to be confined to one place.

"You have to do these following things: A) Take things slow. You are in no shape to go full blast into anything. Slow and steady. B) You can't lift anything heavier than a gallon of milk. If you lift too much weight than you can tear everything that I repaired in your stomach and you could give yourself another hernia. C) You can't be alone. If something would happen where you pull a stitch or a staple or you pull something inside, you want someone there with you. Can you promise me that you will follow these restrictions and guidelines if I discharge you from my care? Because if you don't, then you will be right back here in worse shape." His doctor told Roman. He knew his patient was stubborn. His boss had told him so. Now he just had to make sure that Roman knew of the dangers and risks if he didn't follow his instructions.

Roman asked "Can I walk around? Go on walks with someone? Like I do here?" He would go crazy if he had to stay locked up in a house or a room.

Nodding, his doctor replied "As long as someone is with you. Remember you can't be by yourself."

Looking down at his hands, Roman spoke in a soft voice "What if I don't have anyone to get released to?" He didn't look up at his doctor.

"What about your boss and your two brothers? Can't you stay with them?" His doctor asked.

Roman shook his head. He didn't want to be a pain and a burden. That's what he will be if he got released to their care. Stephanie and Hunter have kids to take care of. They didn't need to have him to take care of yet. And Seth and Dean have their careers to think about. Plus they are on the road all the time. It woud be selfish for him to ask them to put their lives on hold for him. He wouldn't do that to them.

"Okay...well you could stay here for a few more days. I can't keep you here much longer, especially since I don't really have a reason to keep you here. Do you have parents that you can call?" His doctor asked.

Again Roman shook his head. "I don't have parents. I don't want to get you into any trouble. I'll find something." Roman said back.

"Just let me know what you plan to do." His doctor said before leaving Roman alone again.

That afternoon, Roman told his doctor that he had some friends that he was staying with. Again his doctor reminded him of the things that he has to follow. Roman nodded in understanding. Within the hour he had everything that he needed. He had his care instructions that he needed in order to care for his wounds. He had his list of guidelines. Also within the packet of papers, Roman had the date of when he had to be back so he could get his staples out, and also when his follow up appointment was.

Finally getting the official discharge, Roman caught a cab to the arena where he knew Raw was taking place. When arriving, he paid the cab driver and pulled his hat down over his face and then pulled his hood over so no one could see his face and proceed to walk up to the front door of the arena. He told the workers who he was and they left him in immediately. Walking backstage he came to stop at Hunter and Stephanie's door. He didn't want to interrupt, but he wanted to see his brothers and to let them know that he was out of the hospital. Knocking twice on the door, Roman waited for someone to answer. After another two knocks, Seth was the one to answer the door.

"Rome! What are you doing out of the hospital?" Seth asked standing in the doorway to his parent's office.

"I was discharged. I just wanted to come and see you and Dean to let you know that I was released." Roman answered his brother's question. Seth looked surprised to see him standing there.

"Ro you don't look good. Are you sure your doctor said you can be alone?" Dean asked his older brother. Looking at Roman, Dean saw how bad he looked. If Dean had to describe in words how his brother looked standing in front of him, he would say Roman looked pale and run down.

"Dean I had eyes on me the entire time I was in the hospital. There was no chance of escaping. Plus they had a bed alarm on so everytime I would take so much weight off the bed, the damn alarm would go off. And yes my doctor knew I was leaving. I have signed release papers and strict instructions to follow." Roman reassured his little brother.

In the background Seth was getting an area where Roman would be comfortable to sit and rest. Once he was done he said to Dean "Are you ever going to move your big ass out of the doorway and let Rome come in where he can be comfortable or are you going to keep him standing out in the hall all night?"

Dean turned and looked back at Seth and said "My ass isn't big. Ro tell him my butt isn't big." Dean was now looking at Roman for help.

Sighing Roman said "Somethings never change. Saying mean things about Dean, Seth isn't nice. Dean you don't have a big butt. Seth I want you to apologize to your brother."

"Sorry Dean. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. I know how hard you work in the gym to keep in great shape." When he was done apologizing, Seth gave Dean a huge and Dean smiled and huged his little brother back and said it was okay.

Walking into the room after he sorted the little squabble out between his brothers, he sat down on the couch that Seth quickly made up for him to stretch out on to be more comfortable. For the longest time the three brothers were together, watching Raw and laughing about random things that they were talking about. When it was their time to go out for their segment of the show, Roman stayed behind to rest and watch to see what his two brothers will do to each other tonight. As he was watching, Hunter came in to his office and was shocked to see his oldest boy sitting there.

"Roman, what are you doing here? Not that I'm not happy to see you. I didn't know you were being discharged. Why didn't you call me? I would have come to pick you up." Hunter said sitting down beside Roman.

"I didn't know what was happening, and I know how you and Stephanie are busy getting everything ready for Raw. I didn't want to bother anyone. So I took a cab here and walked right in." Now that he said it out loud to Hunter, he sounded like an asshole.

"It's okay. I'm just glad that you are okay. Speaking of Stephanie, let's go see her and say hi. She will be so happy to see you out of the hospital. And then we can get you something to eat also." Hunter said to Roman as he was standing up. He helped Roman up off the couch and together they slowly walked to where Stephanie was located.

On the way to meet up with Stephanie, Roman stopped and asked Hunter "Do you think we can stop and grab something to eat before going to see Steph? Would you mind?"

"That sounds like a great idea. I'm hungry also. Plus it gives Steph a little more time to cool off. She's having a rough night." Hunter replied back to his oldest boy. Together they slowly made their way to catering. Once there, Roman was greeted with all kinds of delicious food. He was frozen, standing there just looking at everything that was there to choose from. Coming up behind him, Hunter said "You can have whatever you want. And as much as you want."

Roman turned to look at Hunter. "I'm not really supposed to be eating here. I don't want to take food away from anyone else. I'll be okay with just a piece of chicken." Roman replied back.

"No, you are recovering from major surgery and you are under weight. You need to eat a good meal in order to heal and to be healthy." Hunter said to Roman. He knew what Roman was saying, him being the one to tell Cena not to allow Roman to eat in catering in the first place because he wasn't on tv shows. Now seeing how bad his oldest boy is, he felt horrible that he ever did that.

"It's okay Hunter. No one wants me here. They have told me plenty of times, and I don't want to fight with anyone. I'm just going to get something small. Then we can go see Steph." Roman tried to reasure Hunter, but it was a losing battle on his part. Hunter was giving in.

"Roman I'm the boss. I make the decisions around here with Steph, there isn't anyone going to challenge me. And if you don't make a plate up, then I will and you will eat every last piece of food I put on your plate.

That is exactly what ended up happening. Hunter made a huge plate full of different foods that ranged from high protein to different carbs and fats. After they left catering, the two men made their way to where Stephanie was located towards the curtain behind the entrance ramp. Too busy to see the two guys behind her, Hunter whispered in her ear to turn around. When she turned around she was shocked to see her oldest son standing beside her husband.

She stopped everything that she was doing and gave him a gentle hug and said "It's so good to see you Roman. Why didn't you tell me that you were getting released? I would have been there to pick you up." She said to her boy.

"He took a cab here without telling anybody that he was discharged from the hospital. Then just showed up at our office in the back." Hunter told his wife.

Looking back at her son, she said "Why didn't you call me or your father? And you took a cab here? Roman how did you get in?"

Putting his hands up in a defense like position, Roman said back "Okay momma bear, I hear what you're saying. But look I'm fine. I grabbed a cab because I knew you and Hunter were busy with getting Raw ready. I had the cab pull up to the front of the arena and walked in through the front door. I told them who I was and they left me right in." Roman reassured his mom.

"As log as you're okay. Now I see you and Hunter have food. Why don't you both sit here and eat." Steph pulled two chairs out for Roman and Hunter. Both guys take the offered chairs.

After sitting and eating for awhile Roman says "I don't think I can eat anymore. Hunter you really stacked this plate with lots of food."

"I don't want to hear it. I told you we will sit here as long as we need too, but you will finish what is on that plate." Hunter said to his son.

Roman kept eating bites here and there. "Can I be done now Sir?" Roman asked Hunter in a quite voice.

Looking at his plate, Hunter nodded his head "Yeah you ate enough. Nice to see you eating something good and healthy. Whenever you're hungry you can grab whatever you want. You hear me?" Hunter knew that Roman wouldn't get anything when he's hungry unless he told his son to.

Hunter, Stephanie and Roman sat there for awhile and talked about a bunch of things. One of the biggest topics of discussion was Roman's release orders. After that was discussed, Steph saw that her son was resting his head on her husband's shoulder. Looking down, Hunter saw that his son indeed drifted off. Lightly shaking Roman's arm, he woke up. "Why don't we go collect your brothers and get your things?" Hunter said in a soft tone.

Looking around, Roman said "What about Raw?"

With a smile on her face Stephanie said "It's over. You slept through the last hour."

"I'm sorry. I didn't think I was that tired." Roman said after he wiped his eyes.

"No need to apologize. You are recovering from surgery. You can sleep whenever and wherever." Hunter said back to his son. Getting up, he helped Roman stand up slowly. The small group gradually made their way back to the office/dressing room where Seth and Dean were waiting. When they arrived, they walked in seeing Seth and Dean holding the discharge papers of their older brother.

"Roman it says that you have to be with someone until your doctor says otherwise. Were you ever going to tell us or were you going to leave without telling anybody where you were going like you did the hospital?" Dean said to Roman in a not too nice tone of voice. Seth was looking at Roman with a hurtful expression on his face.

"Dean, Seth, you have to let me explain..." Roman started to say before he was cut off again by Dean.

"Explain what? How your going to leave again?" Dean snapped at Roman.

"Explain how Hunter, Steph and I came to a decision about how I'll be staying with you all over the course of my recovery. I'll be traveling with all of you. When it comes time for my follow up appointment, we'll all go together." Roman said. He didn't take Dean snapping at him to heart. He knew Dean didn't know of any details of what was happening until now.

"Really?! You're staying with us! You mean it Rome?" Seth asked excitedly.

Smiling Roman nodded his head. With that Dean and Seth flew over to hug their oldest brother. "Watch, you two have to be careful. He's still really sore boys." Hunter said to Seth and Dean. He knew how excited they could be and aren't always thinking. Getting everything together, the small family made it out to the garage where Hunter said to his two yougest boys "You two be careful. We'll meet you at the airport. We will be right behind you. DO NOT do anything stupid. You hear me."

"Dad, I'm driving, what could possibly happen?" Dean respoded back to their father.

"Knowing you, anything is possible Dean when you're behind the wheel." Hunter said back.

Dean smiled and promised to be on his best behavior with Seth in the car. Roman decided to ride with Hunter and Stephanie in the car behind them.
