Don't Get Too Close
Buffy/Dean Fanfiction
Author's Note: I've wanted to write a Buffy/Dean rewrite to the two series for a long long time, but never got around to it. Now I have! I wanted to jump right in to them already knowing each other. They met in Beer Bad when Buffy is hurting from Parker and Dean has just blown into town checking out the reports of supernatural occurrences. Just a quick overview and then we'll jump right in. Thanks for reading!
I do not own the characters. This is to soothe my wild mind, not to make a profit.
Chapter 1: Introduction (Beer Bad - Something Blue)
He didn't know what he was expecting when he came to Sunnydale. He read reports of the abnormal happenings of the town from the mass number of deaths, the blowing up of the high school even to the talk of army men roaming the campus of UC Sunnydale. There were rumors about the unfathomable amount of vampires in the streets, but then again those were just rumors. He hadn't expected the encounter of cavemen in his first week or wild dogs.
Truthfully, he didn't expect half the crap that Sunnydale threw at him. Like one Buffy Summers. He met her in a bar his first night here, but nothing about her really stuck out, besides the fact that she was a blonde in a bar and in much need of a good cry. He ended up being the shoulder for her proverbial cry against some Parker dick. Then he ended up leaving only to come back and carry her back to her room, drunk off her ass with the help of her friend Xander. He didn't even know the chick and he was taking care of her.
He saw her the following day and she introduced herself as Buffy before apologizing for the way she acted while drunk. He saw her a lot after that. Unwittingly bumping into each other on the college campus (while he was researching the town) and at the club in town called The Bronze. She and her friends frequented there quite a bit and so did he. It was the only decent place in town to grab a drink, minus the music.
They got to know each other little by little. She was...quirky. He was intrigued. Not only by her but the town as well. There were so many odd things that happened there yet no one seemed to notice. And she was a strange one too. Always disappearing, running off to god knows where only to show up at crime scenes or weird sightings. But she wasn't a hunter- he knew that much. He just couldn't figure out what.
When he was at the Bronze he'd talk to her and her friends, play a round of pool with her geeky friend Xander, and genuinely just hang out with them. Every so often he'd have to leave for a case nearby, but Dad's orders were to stick near Sunnydale. So he did.
He wasn't complaining. A solid place to stay for awhile wasn't a bad thing and Buffy wasn't so bad to be around either. If you could get past the flakiness. But who really cared - she was hot and he wasn't going to be here forever anyway. All in all, Sunnydale was turning out be quite the place for Dean Winchester.
And then everyone lost their voices.
