Sam is standing outside his and Dean's motel room talking to Jo in the middle of the night. Sam grabs Jo's arm, " You can't just leave and not tell him, it will kill him." Jo withdrew her arm from his grasp fighting tears, "don't you think I don't know that Sam? Sam held Jo's face, "please don't do this to him, just talk to him you guys can work it out." Jo started crying, "I'm sorry Sam I just can't do this, I gotta go." Sam pushed her door to her truck closed, "Fine! You wanna leave then leave but I'm telling you this, you leave right now he will never forgive you." Jo wiped tears then started sobbing, "I know that Sam ok? You just don't get it. This is hard for me too but, I gotta do this I'm sorry." Jo pushed Sam out of the way as she got in her truck and skidded out of the parking lot fighting her tears as she pulled onto the highway." Sam said the only words that came to mind as he watched her drive off, "Dammit."
Dean is asleep in his bed when Sam gets back to the room. He lays back on his bed staring at the ceiling. Trying to close his eyes erasing the memory he had of Jo walking away from them. Sam woke up the next morning, Dean just got of the bathroom wiping his face with a towel,"morning Sammy, hey do you know where Jo is? Went by her room this morning and the owner said she left, you know anything about that? Sam sat up rubbing his eyes, "she left? Dean got angry,"Sammy don't lie to me, why did she leave? Sam looked at Dean, "she said she couldn't do it anymore, she needed to leave." Dean glared at Sam then grabbed his cellphone and speed dialed Jo's phone, "hey this is Jo leave me a message and I might call you back," Dean smirked, "sweetheart I want more than for you to call me back, why did you leave? If its anything I did I am sorry just please come back we can work it out so call me back as soon as you get this." He flipped his phone closed and softly whispered "I love you" to her picture on his phone. In MIchigan Jo is sitting in her motel room crying,"If its anything I did I am sorry just please come back-," she replayed Dean's message so many times and it broke her heart everytime she heard it. She tossed her phone across the room, falling back on her bed, "I'm so sorry I never meant to hurt you," she then ran her hand over her stomach, "I'm hurting your daddy too aren't I?
Sam decided to call Ellen a few weeks later since Jo never returned his messages and he felt Ellen would give him a straight answer. He was thrilled Dean was out getting lunch so he could get the answers he wanted, "Hey Ellen its Sam," Ellen looked at a very miserable Jo, "hey Sam how are you? How's Dean? Jo winced at his name. Sam replied,"we're good how's Jo? Ellen looked at Jo again, "oh she's fine Sam just got hit with morning sickness, so she's a lil under the weather right now." Jo laid her head on the table and groaned, "Sam ran his hand through his hair, "Ellen please let me talk to Jo, it's important please." Ellen took the phone over to Jo, "talk to him," Jo looked up "talk to Sam? no mother I can't its too dangerous to talk to him or Dean I'm sorry." Ellen got back on the phone, "Sam honey could you hold for just one minute." Sam felt confused, "yeah sure no problem," Ellen put Sam on hold, "Joanna Beth you talk to him right now," Jo felt nausea overtake her,"oh god, mother I told you if demons knew that Dean was the father there is no telling what they would do to the baby." Ellen crossed her arms, " Dean deserves to know," Jo stood up, " I know he deserves to know and he will after the apocalpyse." Ellen looked at her daughter in disbelief , "you seriously want to wait till after you have the baby? Demons would come after the baby when you were giving birth and you know that, you gotta talk to them." Jo crossed her arms, "Ok I get it," Jo grabbed the phone, "hey Sam," Sam felt overwhelming joy, "oh its so good to hear your voice, are you alright? how's the baby? Jo giggled,"I'm fine and the baby's fine for now," Sam got worried, "what do you mean for right now? Jo bit her lip, "Sam demons will be after the baby." Sam felt panic, " I wouldn't let anything happen to my neice," Jo was shocked, " how do you know the baby's a girl? Sam smirked, "uncles know these things," Jo ran her hand over her stomach, "how's Dean? Sam looked at the door anticipating Dean walking through, "Jo you gotta come back, he's not the same, he thinks you're dead." Jo wiped tears, " he does? Sam replied, "yeah he's not doing very well." Dean walked through the door with food, " hey Sammy I gotcha a salad," Sam looked at Dean still holding the phone. Dean looked at Sam's phone, "who you talking to Sammy? Sam said nothing as Jo felt her heartache and her stomach cringe as she heard his voice after 3 lonely weeks.
"Sammy who you talking to? Sam barely acknowledged is phone, "I'm gonna have to call you back." He flipped his phone closed, Dean crossed his arms, "Sammy come on who were you talking to? Sam ran a hand through his hair, "Dean I-," Dean put up his hand, "forget it Sammy you don't have to tell me if you're embarrased its ok." Sam held his arm, "it's not that I'm embarrased, its just that I-, Cas appeared in the room before he could finish, "Dean, Sam we need to talk." Dean grabbed his sub sandwich, "god not now Cas, not before my sandwich," Cas looked at Dean, "its important Dean." Sam felt his heart race knowing what this conversation was gonna be about, "Dean I know where Joanna is," Dean felt his heart race, "Jo's alive, but she's in danger." Dean felt panic in his voice, "what do you mean she's in danger? Cas looked at Sam knowing he knew the secret Dean didn't, Sam breathed in deep, "Dean Joanna- Sam cut him off, "she's pregnant Dean, that's why she left." Dean ran a hand over his face, "Jo's pregnant? she didn't tell me but she tells you." Sam crossed his arms, "telling you at the time would of put you all in danger, she was trying to protect the baby, Dean she didn't want to hurt you."Dean looked at Sam hurt, "I'm already hurt its too late." Sam called Ellen, "hey Ellen, Cas is here yeah we gotta a problem where you guys at? Ellen looked around the room, " what kinda problem? then it hit her, "oh god the demons know," Sam looked at Dean, "well not only that but, Dean knows too." Ellen ran a hand through her hair in frustration, "what do we do now? Sam continued talking to Ellen, "I think I have a plan, I'll explain it to you when we get there, how's Jo? Ellen heard Jo vomiting in the bathroom, "oh she's doing great." Jo yelled from the bathroom, "not funny mom." Ellen giggled, "love you too baby," Sam chuckled, "well sounds like she's doing great." Dean grabbed his jacket and bag in anger, "let's go Sammy," Sam grabbed his laptop and bag, "ok so we will see in a few hours, yeah ok Ellen bye." Dean slammed the door to the Impala, "can't believe she didn't tell me," Sam threw his laptop and bag in the backseat, "Dean I'm sorry I didn't tell you I begged her to tell you before she left." Dean ran a hand over his face, "should of known 3 weeks ago something was going on with her, I should of known." Sam looked at Dean, "Dean how could you know? She didn't look pregnant." Sam watched Dean fighting so many emotions as they drove to Ellen and Jo. Dean flipped his phone open and glanced at Jo's picture, " we promised we would never hurt eachother, I can't believe you lied." Dean flipped his phone closed, it flipped it back open and dialed Jo, "Hello," a miserable sounding Jo said answering her phone, Dean held back his hurt, "sweetheart you got a lot of explaining to do."
