CHAPTER1: THE GOOD OL' DAYS

48 hours earlier…

"Run, Dana, run!" Dean called after his client as he heard the rustles of the "thing" that was coming near. He looked around with his gun in one hand and a flashlight in the other.

"Dean!" He heard her cries as snarling and growling filled the air followed by a scream and a howl.

Dean ran towards the piercing sounds. Finally, he found the "thing" cornering her towards a ledge. The "thing" was a werewolf, just as he had suspected.

"Dana!" He called trying to distract the beast.

"Dean!" She cried back. The beast ignored the other human kept his eyes and scent on her.

"Dana, I have to shoot him!" Dean warned her.

"No, please!" Dana begged.

"I have to!" Dean yelled back. He set his gun on his shoulder aiming at the beast.

"Dean! He's my brother!" At her words, both the beast and Dean stopped what they were doing. Dean looked up at the sky. It was almost morning. If he could just get the beast distracted for another 2 hours…

"Dana, don't move!" Dean yelled. Dana stared into her brother's beastly eyes.

"Travis, please, come back to me. I need you!" Dana told her brother. The beast shook his long snout and then continued to back the human girl towards the nearby edge. Dana couldn't help but close her eyes as she took a step forward.

Suddenly, a gunshot filled the silence. Dana opened her eyes. Her brother's eyes widened and then closed as he fell to the ground.

"NO!" Dana yelled she fell to her knees. Her left hand stroked the snout of the vicious animal.

"Don't worry, it was just a sleeping shot I gave him." A voice said. Dana looked up. Dean was looking down at her. Tears swelled up in her eyes with relief. She stood up and walked around the animal to face Dean.

Dean smiled as he saw her face return to a smile. A stinging feeling swelled in his right cheek, then her voice.

"Dean Winchester, don't you ever scare me like that again!" Dana yelled at him. Dean was shocked. Then suddenly warm lips pressed against his.

"What was that for?" He asked.

"For saving, not just my life, but my brother's." Dana told him. She stared up into his deep brown eyes. Hands pressing against her back told her to lean in. They kissed again.

48 hours later…

"Dean, stop!" Dana giggled as her boyfriend kissed her neck.

"Stop? What's that?" Dean teased. But he did stop. He looked down into her green eyes and smiled.

"What?" Dana asked.

"It's just… I think I'm falling in love with you." Dean said. He didn't look serious but he knew it was.

"Dean, don't." Dana said as she sat up.

"Dana, I love you. I know I've only known you for a month, but I really do." Dean admitted.

"You're only saying this because you're leaving." Dana replied, as she felt lost in his eyes.

"Come with me," Dean suddenly said, half not realizing what he was saying.

"What?" Dana asked confused.

"Come with on the road. I'm all alone since my brother won't." Dean looked away as he mentioned his brother.

"Dean, Sam has a life now." Dana said, saying what Dean couldn't.

"I know. He has his girlfriend and I have no one."

"Dean, you just said you loved me." Dana refreshed his memory.

"I know."

"I wish I could go with you, but I can't. I have to take care of Travis."

"Then we'll take him with us."

"Dean, I love you, but sometimes your ideas are crazy."

"What did you say?" Dean asked.

"You're crazy?" Dana teased.

"No, the other thing." Dean said.

"Oh, you mean that." Dana said. "I love you."

"Okay." Dean said.

"Okay." Dana replied.

Dana did end up going with Dean to hunt… but it didn't last long.
