Chapter 1-The Girl!

There was a town up a head just a little ways, not the one the brothers were after, and not even a supernatural infested town-at least they didn't think so.

"Can we please stop soon? I am starving man and you may not admit it but you know you're hungry too!" The shaggy haired exclaimed.

"Okay, Okay! We'll stop at a diner in the next town." The other said as he drove the Chevy Impala down an empty road.

The rest of the trip to the next diner had gone silently. Since Jessica's death, from the thing that killed their mother, the brothers didn't talk much, mostly only about the paranormal.

They finally had reached the next town and silently both brothers were glad. The outskirts of this town were a little on the scary side with a few houses that had been burned.

They turned into a diner's parking lot, called Deb's Diner. It looked old fashion and a little on the old side.

"Isn't this cute?" The driver of the Chevy said sarcastically as both brothers got out of the car.

"Well, at least it's something to eat!" The other brother argued.

They both walked in and a girl about the age of eighteen or so with wavy brown hair and deep brown eyes dressed in a mini skirt, a belly shirt, and boots, sat them at a table. She looked like all the other waitresses but she had a sad feel to her and she was the youngest of them all.

After they both discussed about what to eat, the same young waitress with the nametag of ALEX returned to take their orders and get their menus. After she took the order of two cokes, two hamburgers, and two orders of French fries, she reached to take the menus out of the gentlemen's hands. As she grabbed them she gasped and her eyes turned a very empty brown unlike the original color.

Her mind flashed through many different pictures of the brothers. She saw when their mother died, when the younger brother went off to college, when their father left on his hunting trip, she saw both of their names and she saw some of the supernatural beings that they had destroyed.

She finally flashed back to reality where she took a loud deep breath.

"You okay!" both of the men asked at the same time.

"Of course!" Alex exclaimed with her fake smile, still panting for air. This fake smile had become a second nature to her in the past five years but especially in the past three days.

She walked away hurriedly back into the kitchen where she went to the bathroom and became sick.

A few minutes later after the brothers, Sam, the younger one, and Dean, the older one and the driver of the Chevy, sat and wondered what had happened and if the young waitress was okay one of the older waitresses brought their food. She placed the food in front of the brothers.

"What happened to the other waitress? Is she going to be okay?" Sam asked the waitress.

"Of course, she'll be fine. The last few days have been really tough on her. Since ya'll are travelers you probably haven't heard but just three days ago her boyfriend died in a fire in a house right on the outskirts of town. Alex barely made it out just like eight years ago when her parents died. By the way my name is Deb. I'm the owner. Enjoy your food now."

"Thanks." Dean called after Deb as she walked away. He turned to Sam "I think there's something going on here with this Alex chick."

"What do you mean Dean? This is just a small normal town. I don't see anything paranormal about it."

"Think about it. This girl, Alex, eight years ago her parents burn in their house and she barely makes it out and now three days ago her boyfriend burns the same way and again she barely makes it out of the house again. Doesn't that seem just a little bit fishy to you?" Dean explained as they both ate their food quickly.

Back in the kitchen Deb decided to let Alex go home. Now Alex had just moved into a house right across the street from the Diner and next to Deb since the house she was living in burned.

"Before I leave and before those guys leave will you give them this message?" Alex asked Deb handing her a piece of folded paper.

"Sure." Deb replied. "I'll come check on you later. Just get some rest."

"Alright. I will." Alex walked out of the diner and Deb took Sam and Dean the bill and Alex's note. Dean picked them both up and he read the note. He had this confused and bewildered look on his face as he passed it to Sam. He had the same reaction.

The note read:

Dear Dean and Sam,

I'm sorry if I freaked you out earlier. Good luck on your hunt for your father and please be careful hunting the paranormal. I know ya'll are experienced but I just wanted you to know I'll be thinking of you and hoping you are okay. I'm sorry about your mother's death. It must have been hard. I'm also sorry I couldn't stick around. Again Good luck to you!

Sincerely,

Alex

They both gave each other a puzzled look but didn't say anything. You could tell their minds were working and they were both wondering how she knew all she did.

A/N: I know it's kind of slow but I have to get it started. It's my first time writing a fanfic ever so just stick with me while I figure this out. I'm a little nervous about people reading it… Please leave an update. Criticism is good too but please don't be too harsh. I really want to know what you think though. Thanks! P
