"Aren't you two supposed to be in jail or something?" Becky said, as she got on the super fancy, extra big elevator with her boyfriend, Seth.
"Yeah, for murder once we're finished with you both." Renee said, staring her down menacingly with their cat, Jewel, in her arms.
Seth rocked back and fourth nervously as he held onto their cat, Precious, "Well, at least we can all agree that cats are bloody awesome."
Dean couldn't help but laugh, "Yeah, but too bad ours is still better than you guys'..."
"You wish..." Becky said, flipping her hair back, "Just like you wish that I was your girlfriend."
Dean felt like he was gonna throw up. It was bad enough that he was with Renee since he was still in the closet, but to have her jump to conclusions like that... ew, "Please, you couldn't pay me to date you."
Seth accidentally looked over at Dean at the same exact time that he was looking over at him and saw a longing in his eyes, one that he could get lost in if he wasn't being careful, so he focused on his girlfriend, wrapping an arm around her, "Love you, Becks."
Dean felt, what, envious from this scene? He'd never felt this way in his whole entire life and had absolutely no idea how to explain what it was doing to his mind and body, so he decided to scoff at him and distract himself with the elevator button, "Why isn't this thing moving any faster?!"
Dean kept pressing number 12, which got Seth and Becky to shout their disapproval at him, but he only stopped when Renee batted his hand away, "Dean, stop, you're gonna break the-"
Renee couldn't even finish her sentence, the elevator jerked them all backwards before jerking them all forward and then quickly going up and down before coming to an abrupt halt, which had everybody in awkward positions, especially Dean and Seth since they were right up against each other, "Get off of me!"
Dean was taken aback by the sudden outburst from Seth, "Geez, I didn't mean to-"
"I know that, but just keep your distance, alright?" Seth said, dusting himself off.
Dean squinted his eyes. He just couldn't believe how he was behaving towards him and if he didn't know any better he'd think it was because... "Do you like me or something?"
Seth widened his eyes. It was just a whisper but he still felt like everyone on planet earth could hear and that made him feel very uncomfortable, "What's there to like about you?"
Dean looked down at the floor. He usually couldn't care less about what other people thought of him but with Seth it was... it was just different... so very different, "Nevermind."
Seth definitely felt hurt that he stung him like a bee, "I-I didn't mean it like-"
"Sure..." Dean said, shaking his head as he sat in the corner of the elevator.
"You tried to kill us!" Becky shouted, pointing her finger in his face.
"Becks, he made mistake, something we all do." Seth said, lowering her hand.
"Not gonna lie, it was a bigger mistake than most..." Renee said, running a hand through her hair.
"Finally, we agree on something..." Becky said, crossing her arms, "Anyway, let's let the cats out of their cages, yeah?"
Renee nodded her head. She then opened Jewel's cage and watched Becky help Precious out of hers, but was totally shocked by the sight of the two felines instantly playing with each other, "Awww, looks like they like each other."
Becky gave a small smile, "Maybe we could learn a thing or two from them."
On the opposite side of the elevator stood Seth, while Dean sat with his eyes closed, "Dean, please just look at me."
"Why? We both know you'll just try to put me down once again." Dean said, as he took deep breaths with his head against the elevator wall.
"Look, I'm sorry about what I said before... I was lying because..." Seth said, unable to finish his sentence.
Dean opened one eye to take a peek at him, "Go on. I'm listening."
Seth bit his lip, "Because I actually do have a crush on you."
Dean held back a laugh since he didn't wanna attract the attention of the girls, "Come on, I know this must be some sort of joke-"
"No, I'm being very serious, and if I-I wasn't in a relationship with Becks then I'd kiss you on the spot." Seth said, staring straight at him before he began fidgeting with his watch.
Dean finally opened both of his eyes and saw a boy who's never looked more nervous in his life, not even when arresting criminals! "Stop sweating and sit with me, Sethie."
Seth felt like he could finally breathe again once a smirk appeared on Dean's face, "O-okay... if you're sure."
Dean then took out a pack of peanuts from his pocket and shared some with Seth, "Sorry for, ya know, getting us stuck here."
Seth shrugged his shoulders. He totally forgot that they were trapped, "It's fine, I mean, I'm sure that someone will find us soon and... I'm glad that I made a new friend along the way."
Dean starting coughing, nearly chocking on his mouth full of peanuts from the word friend... it should be boyfriend! "Are you okay?!"
Both the girls walked over to check on him as well, but Renee spoke up first, "Need some water? I've got a bottle in my purse."
"And I've got some Gatorade." Becky said, reaching into her purse before Dean put his hand out to stop her.
"No, I'm fine, really," Dean said, giving them a small smile before looking over at him, "More than fine actually."
This statement caused Seth to blush, so he put his head down in case the girls were watching him, "Well, we're happy you're alright."
"Yeah," Becky said, agreeing with Renee, "And don't be afraid to ask for some beverages if you change your mind."
"Alrighty, thanks." Dean said, flashing them a genuine smile before watching them go to the other side of the elevator.
"So, what's it like growing up as an Ambrose?" Seth said, as he munched on the peanuts.
"Well, I've basically had to hide my true self throughout my life because of my dad, but I've got a lovely sister and a wonderful mom though." Dean said, as he played with the peanuts in his hand.
"Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that." Seth said, feeling like he wanted to arrest his father more than ever now, "Well, I can certainly relate to not having a proper parent..."
"What do you mean?" Dean said, tilting his head.
"My dad was verbally and physically abusive of me, but my brother tried his best to protect me though and I'm forever grateful for him." Seth said, giving him a sad smile.
"Ugh, if I ever come across your dad..." Dean said, clinching his fists.
Seth let out a laugh, "Don't worry, my brother ran him out of town ages ago."
A few seconds later, the elevator began to move and then the door flung opened, "Is everybody alright in here?!"
Everyone nodded their heads and said yes to the firefighters, but being rescued was a bittersweet moment for Dean because he knew that this meant no more Seth and he just couldn't handle that, so he pulled him in for a sweet kiss!
"Dean?!" Renee shouted, pulling him away and slapping him across the face.
Becky then grabbed Renee by the arm and pulled her in for a heartwarming lip lock, but it was cut short when Seth shouted, "Becky?!"
"Listen, I think it's about time that we all stop hiding our true feelings and be with whoever we want to be with, yeah?" Dean said, sliding his hands into his pockets.
"Fine by me..." Becky said, staring at the elevator floor.
"Whataya say, Renee?" Seth said, smiling with his eyes.
"I say this calls for a little celebration!" Renee shouted, as she grabbed Becky's hand and raced out of the elevator.
Dean and Seth, and even the firefighters, laughed at her reaction and then the two boys put Jewel and Precious back into their cages, picked them up with one hand, while holding hands with the other as they happily walked away from a blessing in disguise.
